The Spanish bar John Turner, perhaps (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cantina

'the spanish bar' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'john turner perhaps' is the wordplay.
'john' becomes 'can' (synonyms).
'turner perhaps' becomes 'tina' (Tina Turner).
'can'+'tina'='CANTINA'

(Other definitions for cantina that I've seen before include "Bar in Spain (or Star Wars)" , "Concern for drinkers" , "rural Mexican bar" , "Spanish bar; Italian wine shop" , "Spanish wine-shop" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
