I need some help finding some HO scale signs for a bar or Tavern and Grill. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you.

I used Google images, found what I liked, resized and printed.

I've always drawn up my own then printed them off and cut them to fit. That, or you might try looking through magazines or old phone books and cutting them out and gluing them on your sign boards or buildings.
Try the Facebook photo album of Forum user Tomkat-13. He used to post his vintage sign compliations here on the Forums until Photobucket tried to charge him for that privilege. But you can still find thousands of vintage signs in his Facebook album. https://www.facebook.com/pg/MissouriArkansasRailway/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1483151031943151

A "Brass Rat" is the name for my class ring, from MIT. The sign itself is a simple computer printout, cut to shape and framed with styrene. Over the door, I took my ring and made a hydrocal casting.
Since this bar, made with DPM modular sections, has big windows, I made an interior for it.
The "ladies of the evening" are from a set of Preiser figures called something innocuous like "Young Girls."
The adjacent bar in the top picture has this image on the wall.
I printed it on decal paper and applied it to the brick wall, after painting a rectangular space in white to get the colors right. I did the same with this one:
Yeah, this scene is down by the docks, so it's a little seedy.
