Tender in a noisy bar? (5)
I believe the answer is:
frail
'tender' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'a noisy bar?' is the wordplay.
'a noisy' becomes 'f'.
'bar?' becomes 'rail' (rail is a kind of bar**).
'f'+'rail'='FRAIL'
'in' is the link.
(Other definitions for frail that I've seen before include "hobbling around?" , "Weak, feeble" , "Puny" , "Physically weak, delicate" , "rush" .)
