Etymology

From Old Swedish krogher, from Middle Low German krôch, from Proto-Germanic *kranhō (corner), which according to Kroonen could be related to *kringaną (to turn, yield). However, it could otherwise be from Proto-Germanic *kragan- (throat), probably from Proto-Indo-European *gʷrogʰ-, which could be related to Ancient Greek βρόχθος (brókhthos, throat); similar sense development is found in Latin, where gurgustium (pub, hut) is related to gurges (whirlpool, abyss).

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /kruːɡ/
  • (file)

Noun

krog c

  1. an inn, a pub
  2. a restaurant where the serving of alcohol is at least as important as the food

Usage notes

  • Bit more rustic or everyday-sounding compared to bar, and usually implies (more or less decent) restaurant food being available.
  • Though not implied, also used for fancier restaurants, notably in the compound stjärnkrog.
