Leave the driving to us as we spend a day at New York’s oldest and most historic restaurant!
Fraunces Tavern, once a watering hole for our nation’s Founders, is most famous as the site where General George Washington gathered his officers in December 1783, nine days after the last British troops left American soil, to thank them for their service and bid them farewell before returning home to Virginia.
We’ll start our visit with a special lunch in one of the tavern’s period dining rooms. Then we’ll enjoy a one-hour docent-led tour of the Fraunces Tavern Museum’s gallery exhibitions— including “Path to Liberty: The Emergence of a Nation,” commemorating the 250th Anniversary of the Revolutionary War—followed by time to explore on your own before we board the bus to return to the Historical Society.
