- —The Pub Owner
The Pub (パブ, Pabu?), also known as Tavern and Cafe, is a recurring establishment in the Final Fantasy series.
In the main series, the pub is a place to gather information on current events in the game, but otherwise serves little other purpose. In the Ivalice games, however, the pub becomes more important, acting as a place for players to select certain Missions that can serve to either advance the storyline or gain new items and allies. Certain games enable players to either dispatch characters to end mission automatically, or control them in mission battles.
Another of the more recurring feature is where "Rumors" are circulated that add to learning more about the world. "Rumors" also add more story element that could not be presented with cutscenes.

Final Fantasy VIEdit
Pubs appear in South Figaro, Kohlingen, and Albrook. The South Figaro pub is where the party first encounters Shadow, and is a minor part of a subquest during the first part of the game, where Locke must steal Cidar from a merchant in the pub's basement to get access to a hidden passage that can get him out of town. The Kohlingen pub is in the same building as the Inn, and is where Shadow be be recruited for 3,000 gil during the party's trip to Jidoor and Zozo. In the World of Ruin, Setzer is recruited here. Albrook's pub features Imperial troopers drinking and flirting with dancing girls at tables in front of a stage, and is noticeably larger than the other pubs.
Zozo has a building marked as a pub, but as with all buildings in Zozo the sign is merely decoration and the interior is a two-floor structure with a bar and table on the ground floor. At the balcony outside the pub the player can find the Chainsaw, and in the World of Ruin can dissolve the rush on a rusted door to access Mt. Zozo.
In the Super NES release, all Pub signs were changed to read "Cafe" due to censorship.
Final Fantasy VIIEdit
The main pub in Final Fantasy VII is Seventh Heaven Bar, which serves as the headquarters for AVALANCHE. There are other pubs located throughout the world, such as the Wall Market.

Taverns, also known as Bars, are special locations in every town or city in Ivalice in Final Fantasy Tactics. Like the Outfitters and Warriors' Guilds, it is a mere menu that cannot be explored. The bartender will give the player a series of options. It is here that the player can listen to Rumors, or run Errands after Chapter 1.
The Rumors are based around the events of the game at the moment, and will change after storyline events pass. Errands can be played at any time. After the player returns from Eagrose Castle in Chapter 1, the tavern keeper will tell them about multiplayer content (War of the Lions only) such as Rendezvous Missions and Melee Combat.

The Pub is where players can listen to Rumors, take up Missions as well as quitting any Missions currently undertaken. The player will also end up here if they go to Multiplayer Mode.
All five settlements in Ivalice has a pub, listed below along with its in-game description:
- Cyril - The Prancing Chocobo: Popular clan watering hole. Townspeople post their requests here.
- Cadoan - The Sleeping Forg: Only pub in Cadoan, Come hear the frogs croak in the oasis.
- Sprohm - The Long-Ear Tavern: There's never a quiet night at this hotbed of brawls and rumors.
- Muscadet - Spina Lodge: Small mainstreet inn. Guests come at night to hear the trichord.

Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the RiftEdit
The Pub acts as a place for reading rumors and notices, obtaining quests, and checking current quest status. Additionally, a clan can undertake Clan Trials to append a title according to their clan's talents such as teamwork, aptitude, negotiation skills and adaptability.
All settlements have a pub serving the same purpose throughout the game. Noticeably, the owner retains a similar sprite to the pub owner in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, and is referred to as "barman" instead of "pubmaster". Luso Clemens is the character taking the missions, with Adelle, Cid, and Hurdy accompanying him.
Final Fantasy Legend IIEdit
