Historic Taverns of Philadelphia
2013 - The history in Philadelphia is palpable - it's seemingly on every street corner. In this episode we're going to explore that history by exploring the city's historic taverns. Here we'll visit the City Tavern, the stomping grounds of the Founding Fathers, then we'll explore McGillin's Olde Ale House, a legendary Irish pub founded in 1860, finally we'll take a quick trip to Atlantic City, where we find the notorious, gangster-founded, Knife and Fork Inn. Along the way we'll also talk about the party at the signing of the Constitution, the Tun Tavern, and drop a couple of quick facts. Shot in 2013, we hope you enjoy!

    Been there often throughout my life but never known they had tours. But good food there through my experience. If the walls at Tommy's Bar can talk, wonder what other stories they would say happened in the wild 1920s and 1930s probation era at Tommy's bar ?

    I grew up a half mile west and a mile north of The Spot Bar. Drove past it many times, but it might as well have been ages away since it was down the bluffs and across the railroad tracks. The priest who was the Director of my Catholic Middle School grew up a block to the East, and told us of him watching his father take the streetcar past his house to go there. A high school classmate "PM" says that his grandparents were immigrants in the neighborhood and that this was his family bar, to the point that his father drank there in high school in his JROTC uniform. The Spot is definitely a landmark in Saint Paul!

    Butch Cassidy & Sundance fled to S. America on a steamer from NYC. The Pinkerton files track their movements. One place they went that’s still standing is Pete’s Tavern on 18th & Irving. One part of Pete’s (the 3rd bldg) once held circus animals for Barnum & Bailey. O. Henry wrote ‘The Gift of the Magi’ in Pete’s barroom. I once served a small group that chose Pete’s to transact the sale of the painting that is the cover art for the storybook ‘Madeline’ because the artist was a denizen of the neighborhood and frequented Pete’s. Its front during Prohibition was a flower shop. A former owner, JR, described it as a sort of Geneva where you might find NYPD brass at one end of the bar while Westie gangsters were at the other end. (Why they were downtown, I don’t know.) The guy who wrote ‘The Pope of Greenwich Village’ worked behind that bar. And the “Tastes Great! Less Filling!” commercials were filmed there. As were scenes from ‘Sex and the City’ and ‘Seinfeld’. Manhattan DA Robert Morgenthau had a retirement party there - in the party room in the 3rd bldg where Barnum & Bailey once kept animals. If you want a decent meal and/or a good drink, check out Pete’s Tavern. It claims to be the oldest bar in continuous operation in NYC. But regardless, it’s steeped in history both old and new.

    Denverite Here =) @Bucketlistbars your channel was just recommended to me! AMAZING Interview! as of March 2024; Denver preservationists fought to save El Chapultepec building from demolition & were not successful 😞 I am so glad you did this interview this is literally a time capsule interview! MANY Jazz memories were made in El Chapultepec; I had the opportunity to visit El Chapultepec a couple of times one time it was midday, no action.. and one time in the evening I experienced the Jazz band and tried the Mexican food to curve the drunkenness' lol it was such a vibe! My bestie back in 2012ish said her Mom & Dad would go to El Chapultepec every Friday or Saturday for date nights they LOVED it there, that was their spot. 🎺🎻😎 its SO sad that such a historic bar is going to be erased.. oh wait I think the new owners are keeping the sign supposedly 🙄new owners should keep the bar as it always was, Jazz, Mexican food, and preserve the history of the bar, its been there for SO long! total bs to erase the soul of THE MOST legendary Jazz bar on Market Street and in the whole State of Colorado!!! and TOP 100 bars in the world in the 80's @29:00
