Well, in my intepretation not all Dwarves were master artisans or warriors. The lesser clans, the StiffBeards, for example, performed more menial tasks, and were accordingly looked down at. I could imagine one of them actually operating an inn, after the Ring War, when traffic and trade became vivid once again between the two kingdoms.
