Crossword Genius

Exclude from pub (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bar

I believe this is a double definition.

'exclude from' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'pub' is the second definition.
(both are drinking establishments)

(Other definitions for bar that I've seen before include "Local" , "Ingot" , "A pub counter, or barristers' profession" , "See 9" , "Lawyers; pub" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and The Sun.
