Fraunces Tavern

We were in NYC to prepare for the bicentennial kickoff of Lafayette’s return to America celebrations and got surprised to lunch at the Tavern. It was an experience. The building is a part of history and is breathtaking. The staff is welcoming and knowledgeable! You can walk around and explore the historic site which is great for history nerds like myself and for families. The menu is diverse for all food preferences as well. Bravo for that at an historic tavern! It’s a must see experience.

We are history buffs, and so this tavern was a delight. To think we ate in the same rooms as George Washington himself! The food was delicious, and the atmosphere and service were awesome. There is also a museum upstairs that tells of the history of the tavern. I wasn’t expecting much, but it was actually really well done – and much bigger than we expected! There are some really great artifacts up there.

I came here because I love historical restaurants and they are hard to find in NYC! This is the cutest historic inn. I only got a very light lunch but was still excited to check it out! Service was great and we were in and out quickly, which is what we wanted. They have a diverse menu and an awesome beer list, if you’re into that! Highly recommend.

Great meal in a historic and atmospheric venue! Hot apple cider was a fun try, and Serrano and black mission fig and smoked duck and gouda pinxto flights were excellent, as was Scotch egg. Sticky toffee pudding for dessert was very nice as well!

Pretty historic place this Fraunces Tavern. Washington used to come here with his friends and commanders. We went there with our friends! It was a nice experience. The service was great and the food and drinks were amazing. The vibe was excellent. The restaurant gets very busy so we recommend booking early. If you want to hangout with close friends or want to impress someone you should consider this place. I would definitely visit this place again!
