Ten Tasteful Taverns

Whether it be the spot where your adventuring crew first met or where they will take a break in between slaying dragons and looting tombs, every good campaign features tavern scenes. From bustling alehouses on busy city streets to clandestine watering holes in the middle of the most vast of deserts, each tavern has its own distinct feel and clientele. Still, many of us always go back to the classic, dimly lit tavern with the gruff proprietor, flirtatious barmaid and the hooded stranger in the corner.

Ten Tasteful Taverns aims to change up your game’s taverns by providing you with a collection of richly detailed taverns. Each chapter is packed with information about the look and feel of its respective tavern covering everything from the proprietor and clientele to its menu and services. Also included are adventure hooks and special events to throw a wrench into any party’s night of carousing.

Ten Tasteful Taverns comes with complete rules for D&D 5E, but may prove useful for spicing up any fantasy game’s watering holes.
