The pub-and-bistro register: The something, house, tavern, arms.

Names are generated in your browser from word lists. Nothing is sent anywhere and nothing is stored. They are suggestions, not cleared names: check Companies House, the trade mark register and the domain before you commit to one.

Before you commit to a name

A generator is good at the shortlist and useless at the checks. These are the four worth doing before the signwriter starts.

Say it out loud on the phoneIf you have to spell it every time somebody rings to book, it will cost you bookings for as long as the place is open.
Check it is free to useSearch Companies House and the UK trade mark register, then check the domain and the social handles. A name nobody else has is worth more than a clever one that is taken.
Search it locallyIf a venue two towns over already has the name, you will spend years fighting them in the map pack and collecting each other's reviews.
Look at it smallWrite it out at the size it will appear on a phone screen and on a sign across the street. Long names lose their ending in both places.

Questions

The names are assembled from ordinary English words, so nobody owns the output and you are free to use it. What you still have to do is check that the specific name is not already taken: search Companies House, the UK trade mark register, and the domain and social handles before you spend anything on signage.
No, and that is deliberate. It combines curated word lists in the browser, so it is instant, free to run, and produces nothing weird. Classic builds pub-and-bistro style names, modern builds short two-word ones, and the cuisine option draws on vocabulary from that kitchen.
No. Everything happens on your device, nothing is sent to us and nothing is saved. Close the tab and the list is gone, so copy anything you want to keep.
One that survives a phone call, a shop sign and a search box. If people can spell it after hearing it once, if it still reads at a distance, and if the domain and the Google listing are free, the rest is taste.
