'Kneipe' and 'Pub' are both establishments where you mainly get beer and other alcoholic drinks. 'Kneipe' is the general German word for a simple, cozy place of this kind. 'Pub' is used when the place feels British or Irish, for example in its decor, music, or beer selection. The words can easily be confused because in everyday life a Pub often functions like a Kneipe. If the style does not matter, 'Kneipe' is more natural; if the British or Irish character is important, 'Pub' fits better.
