Article on drinking den for barristers? (3,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

the bar

'barristers?' is the definition.
(term for the legal profession)

'article on drinking den' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'the' (the 'definite article' part of speech).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'drinking den' becomes 'bar'.
'the'+'bar'='THE BAR'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for the bar that I've seen before include "Barristers collectively" , "Legal advocates are called to it" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
