Fraunces Tavern

A historic American tavern where George Washington bid farewell to his officers in 1783, now a museum and restaurant in Manhattan.

Tips from the community

While this bar doesn’t necessarily dress up for Halloween, it is the oldest bar in the city dating back to 1792. I usually go for the beer and short rib sliders but many go in hopes of having a paranormal experience, since a bar over 250 years old can’t possibly be free of haunts.

Another historical stop for our city weekend, the tavern where General George Washington said farewell to his officers after the American Revolution before heading home to Virginia. The second photo is some of my favorite bathroom graffiti, quoting the musical, “Hamilton”.
