Diners line the counter in this view of a combined cocktail bar and restaurant, where drinking and dining share one room. Bar-restaurants like this were a familiar sight in American cities through much of the twentieth century, when a counter stool offered a quick meal or a drink without the formality of a table. Such rooms drew lunch-break workers, travelers and evening crowds, and their mirrors, bottles and lighting reflected the styling of their day. The counter does much of the work here, seating strangers side by side in one shared scene.
