Nineteenth hole

In golf, the nineteenth hole is a slang term for a pub, bar, or restaurant on or near the golf course, very often the clubhouse itself. A standard round of golf has only eighteen holes, so golfers will say they are at the 'nineteenth hole', meaning they are enjoying a drink after the game. The concept is similar to Après-ski in skiing.

The 19th hole on miniature golf courses is often a hole in which if a hole-in-one is scored, one receives a free game.
