Help me find a game, where player is a customer and chilled at restaurant or bar. Multiplayer, mmo or party (room).

No VR (I don’t have it)

The restaurant/bar/bbq/… whatever doesn’t need to be main focus of the game. It can be extra thing.
Example: Deep rock galactic - there is a bar in lobby where your avatar can drink beer, get wasted.
World of warcraft has many a tavern to quench your thirst.
Second Life has restaurants or bars though mostly people tend to hangout in less food focused ways and not sure you would count it as a game.
Vrchat has a desktop client. You don’t need vr to play. Lots of worlds that have experiences like this.
If Deep Rock Galactic counts, then Monster Hunter games should as well. The hub is usually a bar/restaurant with food, drinking, and an arm wrestling mini game. You can also randomly cook meat out in the field or go to hot springs.
Many other games do have bars, but without any real interaction. Lego games and Borderlands come to mind.
Stardew Valley has cutscenes at the bar and you can play a mini game there, but not quite as interactively as DRG.
That’s all I can think of right now. It feels like Baldur’s Gate 3 or Saints Row should also have something similar to Stardew at least, but I can’t remember how much you can do in those bars. Same with MMOs I haven’t played in a while like Runescape. I’m sure if I mention them someone else will know though.
As a bonus: with modding, Lethal Company can have a casino with a bar you can get drinks at.
You have entire guilds in final fantasy xiv focused on this kind of thing.
Sea of Thieves has multiple taverns for you to enjoy
And it’s a gorgeous game and can be super chill if you want it to be.
Sometimes I like to just sail around and fish
Ale and Tale Tavern is a game about running a tavern.
Star Was Galaxies back in the day was one of the only MMORPGs I have ever played where people actually hung out in the cantina all day. You can still play it with help from the linked site. That was an incredible MMO and a shame what happened to it.I miss swg, it was my first mmo that I got into.
Gmod has many roleplay servers, likely one that fits your needs. (haven’t been on it for a while though)
Had lots of fun on there, if you spend alot of time with the same server you start recognizing players and making friends it’s really nice
Not the answers you are looking for but I feel like the vibes you want are best met by games like…

no man’s sky
the nerd.nu pve minecraft server (for shared public spaces made by players that feel real and actually social). Very long running with no lame autoteleport so player made rail, roads and nether roads create emergent highways and gathering spots in a meaningful way that is exceedingly rare for open world multiplayer
or doing logi jobs in Foxhole
Hey foxhole is a great one, but it doesn’t have the bar i guess.
But chilling collecting b mats and making shit are great places to have chats
yeah my suggestions are for “bar vibes” not literally being a virtual bar
Liars Bar. 4 player card or dice “bullshit” game where loser takes a shot at themselves Russian Roulette style. Me and my friends play, it’s a lot of fun!
Red Dead Redemption 2
StarCraft 2, during the Terran campaign you chill out in a bar between missions. There’s no actual gameplay tho, other than optionally talk to NPCs.
No, in sc2, you chilled at the bar is more of menu than lobby (because it is single player).
I am looking for chilled at the bar with dude in multiplayer.
All those games where you build stuff. Minecraft and Terraria and the like, idunno I don’t play them myself but you could build a bar I guess?
MMOs like WoW maybe?
WoW was my answer, there’s tons of taverns and you can buy alcohol and it makes your character tipsy, doesn’t walk straight anymore and the vision gets blurry. I’m pretty sure most of these RPG style games have things like that.
The point of Terraria is very much not building things- though you can- and it wouldn’t be great for this. Building something that looked like a bar would be a ton of effort and you wouldn’t really be able to just go there and get a beer. Drinking it would also just give you a buff.
Maybe Minecraft but I don’t think it’s the vibe OP wants, and you still couldn’t really do more than make an area that looks like a bar without mods.
Maybe not that chill, but Liar’s Bar technically meets your requirements.
GTA 5
I haven’t played GTA Online in a while, but a thing we always used to do in our group was ending the session by visting someone’s apartment or biker club or yacht or whatever, going to the bar there, and getting drunk until someone had to respawn at the hospital. Visits to public nightclubs or the casino and getting drunk there (sometimes even dancing or gambling before doing so!) was more a mid-session thing for us.
