I agree with Kelly on this one .
Here is what the Webster has to say about it :
Main Entry: wet bar
Function: noun
Date: 1967
: a bar for mixing drinks (as in a home) that contains a sink with running water
I looked it up in Termium and here is what it says:
wet bar s
bar automatique s CORRECT,

Heard of it and tried it :) It's a lot of fun in a resort especially if you are
sipping a nice
cold drink :) And I remember that it was referred to as "the pool bar, but perhaps it
has
another name specific to it.
