Lol, I do work in a bar and see no issue with it. Your own personal dislikes aren’t representative of the whole industry.
Examples given here like The Thirsty Scholar and Lamplighter both open late morning/early afternoon which is a perfectly fine time to grab a beer and get some work done. Maybe lighten up a little and try it yourself 🤷🏽

I spent over a decade behind a bar and someone with a book in front of them was almost certainly a lesser headache and a greater tipper than those without. Not once did I ever have reason to take issue with someone because they pulled out a book.

Also anywhere Joe McGuirk is behind the bar, bring a book... But he might want to talk about it. He's a great bartender and reader. We've been drinking wherever he has been pouring for more than 20 years and he's never steered us wrong on a drink or book recommendation.
Also vote for him for city council next time he runs, he's a good dude.
