Sharaab-khaana
A wine-house or tavern; the place where wine is served and drunk.
Literally: the wine-house, tavern
Sharaab-khana is another name for the tavern, the house where wine is served — in the mystical key, the haunt of the lovers of God where the wine of love flows. Like maikhana it is set against the mosque-as-mere-form, a place of living devotion rather than dry ritual. The poet's loyalty to it is a loyalty to the felt, intoxicated love over cold observance.
