While I'm here,

I see you've all been having fun with spaceport bars while I've been off with in-laws.

I've not read all the posts so forgive me if I'm repeating, but the list below doesn't mention the 'classic' one from The Traveller Adventure - the Dead Spacer on Zila where the PCs get into a fight and are bailed out by Oberlindes himself.  I think I wrote some notes on what I did with its decor in a TTA write up quite a few numbers back.

In the meantime, if it helps, here's a list I knocked out at the start of reffing TTA nearly four years back as I figured the subject would come up.

And don't miss the article I did for Freelance on the topic:

if any of that helps

I've consolidated what I've found (so far) into a single listing. Where needed I've made corrections.

Starport Bars (Franchises)

Gurps Traveller: Starports

Brubeks

A franchise set-up that offers a standardized 'olde time Terran bar' experience. 200 units exist scattered across the Third Imperium, the Solomani Confederation and Sword Worlds in various A, B & C class ports, the writeup implies the franchise originated in the Solomani Confederation (Or on Terra pre SRW) and spread into the Third Imperium. Stated that the establishments can be shipped in standard shipping containers to wherever they need to be installed.

Mongoose Traveller: Referees Briefing 3 - Going Portside

GenEric! Bar & Steakhouse

Another franchise setup that offers a standardized experience.

Brewhouse Tavern

Franchised MicroBrewery, specializes in 'local themed/sourced' food.

Starport Bars (Mixed Cases)

Mongoose Traveller: Referees Briefing 3 - Going Portside

Planetfall Bar & Grill

Budget Bar, some establishments are part of a chain, others are simply using the name/concept without permission.

The Torpedo Bay

(Imperial) Navy themed bar, implied to be a pseudo-franchise (e.g. the concept/name has been copied widely, but there is no franchising organization, yet...)

Starport Bars (One-Offs)

Mongoose Traveller: Referees Briefing 3 - Going Portside

Landing Deck

Starship themed bar. Description implies a one-off establishment rather than a franchise
