Taverns

The word derives from the Greek, meaning shelter or workshop. The tavern became a place of entertainment, business and where people had alcoholic drinks and small meals.

Deriva do grego onde significava abrigo ou oficina. Tornou-se local de divertimentos, negócios e onde se tomavam bebidas alcoólicas e pequenas refeições.
