Hungarian term or phrase: Kocsma
Triviálisnak tűnik a kérdés, de bizonytalan vagyok, hogy mi lenne az adott környezetben a legmegfelelőbb. Amolyan lepukkant, "sarki kocsmáról", pontosabban egy bisztrón belüli italozó helyről van szó, a rendszerváltás előtti Magyarországon.
Esetleg bar? Tap room? A pub, tavern vagy inn tudtommal ennél magasabb színvonalat jelent.

Dive bar
Explanation:
Mivel "lepukkant" a kocsma, ezt javaslom.

Dive bar is a colloquial American term for a disreputable bar or pub. It may also refer to a neighborhood bar where local residents gather to drink and socialize. Individual bars may be considered to be disreputable, sinister, of poor upkeep, or even a detriment to the community.

agree  Katalin Horváth McClure: Igen, gyakran csak "dive". "Joe spent his evenings at the local dive." Ez amerikai angol, brit vagy ausztrál angolban feltehetőleg más lesz - sajnos a kérdésből nem tudjuk, melyik a célnyelv.
