Is it a bar or a pub?

I took this photo in Zagreb, Croatia. There were a lot of tables outside of a cafe bar and chairs were decorated in winter mode. They look lovely, don't they? Speaking of a bar, one of my English acquaintances told me something interesting recently. I asked him what the differences between a bar and a pub were. He said if someone talked to him about a bar, he could imagine that the bar was a fancy place to drink alcohol drinks. If someone talked to him about a pub, he could imagine that the pub was not a fancy place. He also said "But, there's a bar in a pub, right?" Right. How confusing.
