No place to do, nowhere to do
1. There is no place to have a beer.
2. There is nowhere to have a beer.
3. There is no room to have a beer.
Q1) Which ones are correct English?
I think only 3 is wrong and 3 should be "There is no room to have a beer in".
Q2) In 1,2,3, do "to have a beer" grammatically modify or describe "no place", "nowhere", "no room"?
