A pub or bar, usually your regular spot. It’s where everyone wanders in after work to stand around chatting rubbish, pretending they only came for one. The name jokes that people flock to it like animals to water, except it’s pints, crisps and someone hogging the fruit machine. Honestly, it’s a very accurate image.
"Fancy the watering hole after work? I’ve had a day, I need a pint and a moan. If Dave starts on his crypto again, I’m legging it to the beer garden"
