The Warren Tavern

The Warren Tavern is the oldest tavern in Massachusetts, having been in operation since 1780 at its current address on Pleasant Street, next to the Bunker Hill Monument. When it was built, it supposedly replaced a nearby tavern burned down by the British troops either during the Battle of Bunker Hill or another Revolutionary War skirmish. The tavern was named after Dr. Joseph Warren, a Patriot leader who was killed in action during that famous, aforementioned battle that took place in Charlestown. Back in the day, this bar hosted prominent American patrons like Paul Revere, Benjamin Franklin, and George Washington, so stopping by here for a beer is basically a history lesson.

Dark wood and small rooms, invite you to feel like you have taken a step back in time and entered a watering hole from the past. But the service, election and surroundings tell you something different because everything about being here is a modern experience. Live music pops up at Warren tavern, and Wednesdays are a hot night for locals who flock to this watering hole to enjoy the casual bar scene and above-average burgers. Warren Tavern is a perfect place for an American meal or simply a beer pint to end your night.

Today, it is a staple for locals much as a popular hangout for tourists who, apart from beer, varied pub food & colonial charm, are also interested in understanding American Colonial history and culture.
