Apocalyptic tavern. Not like Post-Apocalyptic. I mean like there is 1 year until the world freaking ends. I'm talking Mork Borg style. There is no hope, so why worry?
(I just got some Mork Borg books and I love them to death. There is a set of statblocks for hags and their "families" [this is one of the first times I saw hags and said "I love this"] in a food-themed book called Eat Your Heart Out. There is also what is possibly my favorite interpretation of a gluttony demon ever, which I am absolutely stealing)

It has happened. A miracle
I'm gonna make a DnD hag based on it: Meat Hags.
They love children but are far too scatterbrained to care for them properly. So, to remedy this, they create monsters (which are much hardier than little kids) to love and care for. Often they turn children they receive in deals into these monsters.
Meat Hags are brilliant fleshsmiths, sanguimancers, and alchemists, creating flesh constructs like golems, banderhobbs, and reborn with ease. They rarely stop working, and often accidentally rely on their "children" to take care of them. They often have a myriad of bound souls, particularly demons, to put into their constructs. Often they accidentally forget what they were making and make their unfinished projects into delicious stew instead, which often results in them eating the souls of formerly living creatures.
Despite their gruesome nature, Meat Hags don't want to cause harm; they simply don't think to avoid it. It is rare to see an actually malicious Meat Hag; selfish for sure, but rarely malicious. Their deals are often fairer than that of other hags, but they sometimes lose track of what they were doing and experiment, which more than once has resulted in families being gifted children with bizarre features. In some cultures, any child who has any sort of birth defect is suspected of being a Meat Hag's child.
Meat Hags aren't true hags, much like Night Hags; these ladies were created when someone tried to make a golem out of hag flesh. The resulting creature ate her "master" and quickly devised a way to make Meat Hexbloods to fulfill her desire for a family.

Sounds like an interesting idea. Here are my thoughts, take them however you want.
First off, never poison the well. Putting your work or ideas down before presenting them does no good and is a bad habit I’m also guilty of.
Most attempts I’ve seen are post-apocalyptic, so an apocalypse tavern is pretty unique. That little bit of philosophy you added, “If there ain’t no hope, why worry?” would lead to very interesting (if somewhat depressing) character interactions and designs.
Because the End is so close to happening, it would have to happen eventually, right? Would you have a set page number and once the thread got that many pages the world would end? That might be interesting.

Pretty dark, but that is a really cool hag design.

first off, a pack of young vampire spawn, their master killed. They wander around, trying their best to survive. Could be helpful npcs or even something I could use on taverns or maybe with other people too if they want to make a character.
and second… fashion magic. The magic quality of fabric weaved into patterns with specific colors and shapes, causing enchanting effects most commonly, but also granting protection or even evocation powers, like lighting a dress ablaze as a defense.

Ooh, I like that. I'm feeling a tad daring as well.
What about a campaign or tavern where everyone is a thri-keen or insect adjacent character, and they have to work together to keep the colony running after the queen fell ill of unknown causes.

It’s like a pbp but with more skills, and your just trying to survive and make a civilization.

I should stop trying to make monster master type characters. You know, a backliner who has a big powerful monster... or several.
The Dread Necromancer and Scion of Cthulhu builds are like the only viable option for that, and for a good reason: tracking extra stuff is awful.
