Nearest bar is setting problems (5-7)
I believe the answer is:
brain-teasers
'problems' is the definition.
(brain-teaser is a kind of problem)
'nearest bar is setting' is the subsidiary indication.
'setting' is an anagram indicator.
'nearest'+'bar'+'is'='nearestbaris'
'nearestbaris' with letters rearranged gives 'brainteasers'.
(Another definition for brain-teasers that I've seen is " Puzzles".)
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
