Gentleman John's
Gentleman John's sits right on the border with Bloodsalt, and only a block or so from the border with Scurvytown. Appropriately, it is the dirtiest and rowdiest bar in the Eastern District, a place viewed as something of an embarrassment by most other inhabitants of the area. The local Watch are well aware that this tavern is often the busiest and most dangerous part of their patrols, and so they seldom come in groups of less than three.
History
Gentleman John's has only been around for a short time. John set it up in an abandoned storefront, taking advantage of the fact that proximity to Bloodsalt had lowered local prices to the point he could actually afford to buy it. He planned the inn to be similar to those found in the small towns of the interior of the island, and so spent little on decorations, furniture or fancier types of food and drink. This meant that most Easterners continued to go to other establishments, but it did allow him to attract a steady supply of patrons from Scurvytown, Bloodsalt and Drac's End, as well as poorer parts of the Eastern District.Description
This building was once a general store. It was abandoned shortly after the establishment of Bloodsalt, as its owner and his family did not want to live near the violent greenskin area. The old store is not in the best of shape, and the regular fights in the tavern have not helped. John tries his best to keep it up, but the rate of damage has so far exceeded his abilities at restoration.
