The Griffon Room
This tavern is located near the western gate to Ludensheim . It is a very large building consisting of four floors, a barn, a brewery, a barnyard, and a coach house. The Griffon Room is the largest and most posh tavern in Ludensheim. It hosts travelers of all sorts, whether merchants, farmers, knights, or others. The Griffon Room occupies what was once a gatehouse in the walls. The walls were torn down some time ago, as the city expanded but the gatehouse remained.
The tall towers of the gatehouse are the personal quarters of the owners of the Griffon Room, Darin Hirst and his partner Otto Bremger. Each lives in one tower with their families. They have run the Griffon Room for many years. Darin is the friendlier of the two and ensures the guests are well taken care of. Otto is an accountant and ensures that the Griffon Room remains a profitable venture.
The ground floor of the main building faces the street. Broad double doors open onto a cavernous common room recessed into the ground. The flagstone floor is worn smooth with use and the crossbeams and walls are black and dingy with age, smoke, and grease. The room is cluttered with benches, tables, and even a few chairs. A large fireplace beckons warmly, day and night, summer or winter. Two sets of steps lead to the upper floor, while one large opening leads back to the kitchen, and another narrow door leads off to private dining rooms.
