Addressing the bar kind of scene you're talking about: I just don't think it'd work for those that are of the legal age to drink (speaking from the US perspective). People go to bars/clubs for the intense environment of people getting drunk, dancing, etc. For the people that want something more chill, they just go to a more mellow dive bar.

But most of all, there's not much of a plan when going out for a lot of people. Friends will get together and say, "let's go to the bar" and the night goes from there. With your idea, there's a requirement of finding a location, scheduling a location, renting out that location. Oops, double booked? Night ruined.

I think overall this idea gets really dicey when there's a service other than renting out the space to a customer. And if all you're doing is renting the space, why wouldn't I just use airbnb?

YMMV but AirBnB explicitly doesn't want your business if you want to host a party/event type of gathering and will kick you (guest and/or host) off the platform for it.
