The City Tavern!

from Your Weekly Constitutional Hosted by Stewart Harris

Our best field trip ever! We visit the historic City Tavern. When the delegates to the Constitutional Convention gathered in Philadelphia in May, 1787, there were no modern hotels. They stayed at boarding houses or private homes, and they ate (and drank) in taverns. The most prominent of those was the City Tavern, which has been authentically re-built so that that you can go and eat (and drink) the same way that the delegates did. It is easily the most enjoyable historical research we have ever done. Join us! Huzzah!
