The "spaceport bar" theme may appeal to you, there is at least one anthology with that in the title, a search will probably find more.
Spider Robinson had a series of books collecting stories about Callahan's Crosstime Saloon, you may need waders for the bathos.
Some stories by Roger Zelazny and Fredric Brown may also fit.
