      Description


      A beach snack bar is often a small building situated high on the sand. Besides soft drinks, candies and chewing gum, some snack bars sell hot dogs, hamburgers, french fries, potato chips, corn chips and other foods. While this is usually the case, sometimes "snack bar" refers to a small café or cafeteria. Various small, casual dining establishments may be called "snack bars", including beverage and snack counters at movie theaters, and small delis. Many places with snack bars have a policy prohibiting outside food and drink in order to encourage sales.
      In movie theaters and other types of theaters, the snack bar is usually located in the lobby.
      The first known use of the word "snack bar" was in 1930.
