  1. Do you know the difference between a #medieval #inn, #tavern and #alehouse? *

    An alehouse, as the name suggests, sells ale - originally made by alewives. They're on private property & this is where common folk go. Cheese & bread are also available.

    A tavern on the other hand sells wine. Merchants & the gentry go here. The worst ones sell cheap wine. The best ones show you their barrels.

    Inns are for the wealthy. They accommodate travellers & while they may sell some ale or mead, their purpose is rest.

    *In the later middle ages all establishments diversified. Alehouses became the precursor to pubs. Taverns started offering more options in both drink & food, & inns became hostels & motels markedly nicer than their earlier communal bedrooms.

  3. A #thermopolium/#caupona, was an #ancientRoman #fastfood shop; well-preserved e.g. in #Pompeii/#Herculaneum. Simple meals were sold at a #counter with inset #vessels kept warm by a fire. Food was typically consumed while standing, though seating areas as in a #tavern could exist. A. Pecci et al.

    The American Sign Museum book makes it to Canada and poses in front of Elaine Wallis' test piece for one of the Museum's internal murals. Sadly the final mural didn't make it into the book, but it was featured in BLAG 06 (bl.ag/06).
