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.

The yard of the bucket has several sheds which are rented out to small businesses. The Ankh-Morpork Times began in one such, and Mr Cheese may still be its landlord.
