The Bucket
From Discworld & Pratchett Wiki
A tavern in Gleam Street, run by Mr. Cheese, The Bucket is unofficially a policemen's pub, because the owner and the clients suit each other very well. Nobody else wants to drink in The Bucket, so Ankh-Morpork Watchmen can drink there without seeing a bar fight where they might have to interfere. Ankh-Morpork Watchmen are silent and serious drinkers, but when they do talk, Mr. Cheese listens sympathetically. Mr. Cheese seldom gives his opinion or even a laugh, but sometimes he does smile because he finds descriptions of some homicide cases entertaining.
Major appearances in:
- Men at Arms
- Feet of Clay
- The Fifth Elephant, as strike headquarters of the Watchmen's Guild
- The Truth, as where William meets the Dwarves who have a printing engine...
