Since 1746, the building that houses this tavern has played a part in the establishment of our nation; first as a respite for stagecoach travelers expanding westward and later as a covert rendezvous point for George Washington, Marquis de Lafayette, and other leaders of the American revolution. It is believed that during the infamous winter of 1777–1778 at Valley Forge, a major figure in the Continental Army, master military mind Friedrich Von Steuben, designated the tavern as a secret black powder munitions stash for Continental Army couriers. All the while, the tavern continued to provide food, shelter and cheer to the hungry, weary soldiers fighting for their independence. Today, we honor our historic tavern’s tradition with a mission to raise the spirits of our guests. We invite you to experience the small and large plates, craft beers and revolutionary hospitality that is Black Powder Tavern.

We were greeted by very accommodating staff early on a Wednesday night. We had a couple happy hour libations followed by yummy selections from the menu. The wait staff was attentive and so friendly. We stayed for the band at 7:30 for their first set. The band was great. We really enjoyed the whole experience. Oh, and I forgot the atmosphere was very cool too. It had the feeling of a NYC jazz club. Will be back!!
