"If you want some ale, you should ask! They'll serve anyone who can pay, my friend."

- Prince James to Anton

Trivia

On-Screen Notes

 * The same flute music is playing in the tavern Anton visits in "Tiny", the tavern where Hook and his crew celebrate in "The Jolly Roger", the tavern where Emma meets past Hook in "Snow Drifts", the tavern where young Cora is working in "Bleeding Through", and Robin Hood's tavern in "Heart of Gold". It can also be heard in the tent camp that Snow White visits in "Heartless".
 * The tavern where Regina and her serum counterpart both find Robin of Locksley is the Wish Realm version of the tavern where Queen Regina and Tinker Bell found the real Robin Hood in "Quite a Common Fairy". The two buildings share the same facade.

Disney

 * The song young Ursula sings at a tavern is "Fathoms Below" from Disney's The Little Mermaid.

Popular Culture

 * As Cyrus and his brothers celebrate the victorious card game, Cyrus orders mahia for everyone in the bar. Mahia ("water of life") is the traditional eau de vie of Morocco, and is made from dried figs and anise seeds. It is traditionally distilled by Jews.

Props Notes

 * An illustration of the Pied Piper appears on Dreamy's drinking stein.
 * Belle is drinking from a Classic Pewter Tankard with glass base from Oktoberfest Haus.
 * While Hook is gambling at a tavern, the dice do not have the traditional dots. Instead, they bear the traditional playing card suits: Spades (♠), hearts (♥), diamonds (♦) and clubs (♣).
 * According to the label, the bottle sitting on Hook's table contains "Fine Old Rum" from "Langtree & Sons".

Set Dressing

 * The sign outside the tavern where Queen Regina finds her soulmate (a face made of leaves) also appears outside the tavern Robin Hood takes her to in Isaac's storybook. However, it is not the same tavern, as the architecture outside is different. The same sign is used on a village building when Snow White and her friends are "celebrating" the Evil Queen's birthday, and on the Wish Realm tavern where Regina and her serum counterpart both find Robin of Locksley (which is identical to the tavern where Regina found her soulmate years earlier).
 * The same sign appears on a drawing on the bulletin board that David puts together when investigating his father's death.

Filming Locations

 * According to production designer Michael Joy, the production team has a standing set for a tavern that was built for the episode "That Still Small Voice" (even though there is no tavern in this episode), which they constantly shoot in. During the first and second season, the set was used twelve times for different locations. The production team would redress the set by moving walls around or add a fireplace.
 * The tavern set is located at The Bridge Studios in Burnaby, where Once Upon a Time films. It has also been used as a generic set for many Enchanted Forest scenes.
