"/Literally speaking, the word Stammtisch is a table in a bar or
restaurant which is reserved for the same guests at the same time every
day or every week. There is usually a sign on the table saying
"Stammtisch". If you don't belong to this table, don't attempt to sit
there! In the most traditional German beer halls there is a large brass
plaque above the table with the word Stammtisch printed on it in bold
lettering."
