Perhaps it used to be a thing in the US? Cheers was set in Boston, right? Then again, Boston is known for having a lot of Irish influence.

But Cheers was only that way for the main characters. Look at all of the background patrons for contrast.

There is a bar around the corner from Cheers that actually did feel like the neighborhood "living room" to me. When you see a bar where ages range from a few months to 80+ years, you're on the right track.

Bang-on. Seattle is the same (Pike Place Bar & Grill et al).
