Flew on the CO D10-10 flights to HNL a few times and to HNL on the way to SYD/MEL. Although it wasn't called Polynesian Pub when I flew it. Only on the DC10-10s. There were no tables. The newer DC10-30s did not have a Pub.
CO printed schedule showed "Pub Service" next to the flight number for the flights that had it.
The pub was located in the door area between F and Y. On the DC10 - the bar was L shaped to one side. Row of CO brown leather lounge seats around the perimeter (like shown) but they were the standard brown leather. The bar had about 3 stools.
Since the pub was at the door area - the row in front of Y likely took one row of Y seats - there was a divider with curtain so as not to disturb those in the main cabin. The L shaped bar went into one side of the plane and the other side had the galley.
When CO took out the pub - they likely added one standard row of coach. The L part then had a mini cabin of coach seats added in a 2x3 arrangement. The DC10s were 2x5x2 as I recall.
The lounges was accessible for coach passengers - and used mostly by coach. Those in F (the old standard brown leather domestic F type of seats) usually stayed in F since they have more service to their seat.
The DC10-30 were three class of service with no pub - with F at 60 inch pitch, J was like domestic F brown leather. The DC10-10 had two class with F being a domestic F seat.

On the photo of the QF J lounge. Not really a lounge - a row of 5 seats with a large TV panel across from it. A place to go and watch a large screen with a few people. Gets little use. I was on a QF J trip earlier this year to MEL- I spent about half the flight sitting in the J lounge - mostly alone. It was like having a private two story suite (staircase is open) on a flight with 500+ people in the back. One set of earphones availabe. Stairs are in the middle then lounge row on one side and the other side has a small bar cabinet and then a terminal area for the FAs - not an internet terminal (too bad).
