What's the difference between bar and pub?!
Answers: "Pub" is short for "Public House" and brings to mind a small corner bar where the lacals meet after a days work. It's usually intimate and cozy. "Bar" is a more American term, but is very general, refering to a place where there is alcohol. You can have a small bar in your home, or there might be a massive 3 story bar downtown (though many would refer to that as a "club", especially if there is dancing.
British say Pub Amercans say Bar
Nothing, its the same thing
Bars tend to be loud and obnoxious whereas pubs are sit drink and enjoy type enviroment.
In England, pub is short for 'public house' that allows any householder to brew and sell beer on the premises. Alcoholic drinks are also available. A pub mostly sold real ale (beer delivered via cask in the traditional method).
The defining characteristic is the drinks menu: cocktails, imported beers, a selection of spirits and the usual soft drinks. The term 'bar' is popular in the US.
It was originally meant as one of the separate areas in a non-pub establishment like a theatre or hotel. It is an establishment offering everything from afternoon tea to a late-night beer and snacks.
I would call a local a pub, usually somewhere you would go for a few drinks and a chat and a bar is more geared toward partying and getting drunk!

Pub is short for the "Public House", which originated in predominantly English speaking countries. Facilities with English (British) themes found in the US are commonly referred to as pubs as well, although there really isn't any definable difference (outside of the overall theme) that distinguishes a pub from a bar, tavern, or lounge. All predominantly serve alcoholic drinks to be consumed on premise, most have a relaxed, comfortable setting in which you may commune with your drinking acquaintances, and some even offer facilities for overnight stay (stemming in some places that enforced restrictive laws on serving alcohol on Sundays; this was only allowed in hotels).
The Term "bar" comes from the specialized counter that was used in pubs ot cantinas to serve alcohol on or from, and was eventually hijacked to refer to the establishment as a whole.
In the UK a bar is where you buy your beer and spirits in the pub.
