A month in vehicle where alcohol sold (4,3)

I believe the answer is:

cafe bar

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'alcohol sold' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'a month in vehicle' is the wordplay.
'month' becomes 'Feb' (abbreviation for February).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'vehicle' becomes 'car' (car is a kind of vehicle).
'a'+'feb'='afeb'
'afeb' placed within 'car' is 'CAFE BAR'.

'where' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
