barfly

Someone who spends the greater part of their time in bars or other drinking establishments. Primarily heard in US. You get to know the people in these places when you're a barfly like me. Man, you're nursing a hangover every time I see you! I think it's time to give up being a barfly, don't you? Public opinion really seems to have turned on that singer, now that the tabloids have painted him as a carousing barfly.

2. n. a drunkard. Some barfly staggered out of the tavern straight into the side of a car.
