Rhodie bar

A Rhodie bar is an establishment frequented by Rhodies (white residents of the former country of Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe). The term Rhodie implies an attachment to the former country, and is often used as a pejorative.

Rhodie bars are often decorated with Rhodesiana, particularly memorabilia of the UDI era and the Rhodesian Bush War.

Such establishments, in pubs, restaurants and hotels, can be found in most Zimbabwean towns and there are several in South African towns such as Cape Town where concentrations of Rhodesian expatriates live. There is at least one claimed Rhodie bar in England.
