Fraunces Tavern

Party of 2 coming for the history. I loved the proximity to Wall Street, easy walk. We got seated quickly around 6pm on a Friday but missed the museum closing at 5. I had the Chicken pot pie & it was really great, it had large tender veggies inside & a perfect croissant type top. I also got the brussel sprouts which I felt weren't worth the extra $, not tender enough & a little short on flavor. The service was great but the bar side area was a little loud & tight with the 2 seaters being so close.

Stopped in for lunch and to enjoy the history. Unfortunately, our waiter disappeared mid meal and never even let us know. The white wine was good and the chicken pot pie was average. The atmosphere was amazing, and we eventually flagged down someone to take over our table. He was very nice and apologize for our person leaving for the day. Someone should really organize that type of thing better because it was a bit ridiculous to just be sitting and waiting forever. Historic place and I’m glad we stopped in, but probably will not go back again.

Wonderful experience at a historic establishment! The place oozes history. There are numerous rooms throughout the building each with their own vibe. We came for Sunday brunch and truly enjoyed it. We had the double bonus of some smooth Christmas jazz played in the main bar area where our table was AND a visit from Santa 🎅! The food and service were amazing. Eggs Benedict shown below. Will definitely be back to visit the small museum and enjoy another meal!

Great food, great whiskey, and zero reservations, literally. This tavern is NYC's oldest and it ended up being a surprisingly wonderful birthday lunch spot. We walked in with no reservation at peak lunchtime and somehow still got a table for five. We also had no idea it was the anniversary of Evacuation Day (November 25, 1783), when British troops finally left NYC and Washington paraded in and had dinner at there, so we accidentally walked straight into reenactors, demos, and a whole crowd reliving history right outside the door. Inside, the tavern has that historic wood-and-holiday-decor charm without forcing anyone to romanticize colonialism. We sat in the Independence section and ordered from their online menu which is section-specific. The food was great, especially mine. My Oysters w

We love Fraunces Tavern and visiting is always a treat! The food is great, especially the dry rub chicken wings (the best I have ever had). Our server, Kara was phenomenal and attentive without being intrusive. The best part of Fraunces Tavern is definitely the atmosphere!! The restaurant has been beautifully maintained in a colonial style. There are multiple, cozy areas to eat as opposed to one big area. I highly recommend this restaurant to both native New Yorkers and visitors as well!
