Over time it came to mean mainly serving girls, as in a bar wench, who serves drinks at a tavern. If you find wench in a love poem from the 16th century, think of it as an informal version of maiden. But if someone called you a wench last week, you should be insulted.

What did shakespeare mean by wench?
The word "wench" meant and still means a young woman. Often nowadays it is used when talking about a waitress, but Shakespeare used it for any lower-class unmarried woman (including, frequently, waitresses). I say "lower-class" because that is the connotation but not always the denotation of the word. Thus Petruchio in Taming of the Shrew calls Kate a "wench" just to irritate her, because she is better than that. In Love's Labour's Lost Berowne calls Rosaline a "wench' in a flirty way, and Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet does the same for the Rosaline in his play, in order to imply that she is not worth Romeo's time.
