What happens when you 'buy a round for the hall' in Final Fantasy 16?
Unfortunately, nothing happens when you 'buy a round for the hall' - outside of everyone in the hall getting a nice refreshing drink, of course. While we're sure we weren't alone in thinking that the steep 10,000 Gil price tag would give something a little more substantial, at least you can rest assured that you've probably made someone happy.
If you consider that the price of a single drink from Maeve is 500 gil, the 10,000 gil cost for the whole hall implies that there are only 20 people to be found within the central hub of Hideaway. Looks like you've got a few more bearers to save.

How to get the Eureka trophy in Final Fantasy 16
However, the 'buy a round for the hall' option is in fact the easiest way to get the Eureka trophy in Final Fantasy 16, as you will need to spend 36,000 Gil at Maeve's establishment the Tub and Crown.
Thankfully this sum includes drinks that you buy for other people, so you will only need to select the option four times in order to get the trophy. This is, of course, a lot of money to spend on functionally nothing, so the best way to go about this is to create a save, and then reload it once you have spent the Gil.
If you're lacking for Gil in the first place, however, the quickest way to pick some up is by doing Hunts from the Hunt Board, as the bounties can typically be in the tens of thousands - letting you quickly get up to the required amount.
So, that should answer all of your questions if you were wondering what happens when you 'buy a round of the hall' in Final Fantasy 16, alongside showing you how to get the Eureka trophy in the game.
