Roe and Oliphant
A bustling tavern and a favorite haunt of students, The Roe and Oliphant is famous for cheap drink, hearty portions, and raucous revelry.
While its food quality is often described as "tolerable", its generous servings and low prices make it a staple for hungry scholars and coin-strapped adventurers alike.
The atmosphere varies depending on the day, but on Earthday evenings, the tavern explodes with music, laughter, and drunken song. With most colleges suspending classes on Freeday, the merrymaking continues well past midnight, often spilling out into the streets of Clerkburg.
The tavern itself is a large, rustic structure dominated by a massive central fireplace, which radiates warmth throughout the main hall. Several smaller side rooms offer a modicum of privacy, though the steady din of conversation and revelry ensures that no corner is truly quiet. The distinctive aroma of the Roe and Oliphant—a blend of wood smoke, stale ale, and human sweat—is as much a part of its identity as its boisterous patrons.
