British-Style Pub Names
British pubs (short for Public House) have been part of community and travel from medieval times. Their names range from the short (the Bell) to long (Three Greyhounds Inn), locally important (Dun Cow) to comical (The Nobody Inn).
Pubs and taverns are popular in fantasy, places for characters to meet, rest and make plans. A good (or bad) name in an adventure or campaign can be remembered for years.
Many pub names are simple, such as the Bull or the Mill. But that name could have many variations, such as a descriptor (Black Bull), Old/New (Old Bull), place association (Bull at Swyre), pub type (Bull Tavern) or combination (New Bull Inn at Coombe).
