Description

Dingy, dark, dangerous, welcome to the Hog's Head Tavern. Sawdust covers the floor, but it's like using dirt to cover up dirt. The sawdust is old and grimy and the windows can hardly be seen through and are practically opaque with filth. The walls are made of daub with half-timber supports, both the wooden beams and the daub look like they've been coated in a tar like wash. The sense of smell is assaulted by the pungency of goat and stale beer. A long bar looms in the back side of the room is outfitted with unseemly sorts. An ancient old wooden till rests behind the bar out of clientele reach, hung with a fist sized iron lock. Also behind the bar is a rickety wooden staircase that leads upwards for anyone brave enough to traverse the steps. To the side of the bar set into the wall is a huge fireplace that looks like it could fit a few spits to roast any wayward Hogwarts student in. Around the fireplace is a scattering of tables and chairs, some look recently put back together with a botched 'Reparo' spell. All in all the Hog's Head could win a prize for worst tavern in the world. But it's cheap, and quiet. A perfect place for a secret rendezvous, again for those daring enough to be here.
