Warren Tavern

Tavern

Built c. 1745, Warren Tavern is among the oldest continuously operating taverns in Pennsylvania and is named for General Joseph Warren, killed at Bunker Hill. Anthony Wayne and Washington both drank here. The tavern served as an informal headquarters for American forces in the Chester County area in 1777. After the Paoli Massacre, British officers reportedly used it as a gathering place. It continues to operate today.
