Gadsby's Tavern is a historical landmark located in the heart of Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. This 18th-century tavern and inn played a significant role in early American history, serving as a social and political gathering place for notable figures such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams. The establishment consists of two buildings: the larger one housing the tavern, built in 1785, and a smaller structure, which served as the City Hotel, built in 1792. Today, Gadsby's Tavern operates as both a museum and a restaurant. The museum features period rooms furnished with authentic 18th-century artifacts and offers guided tours that explore the tavern's rich history and role in colonial America. The Gadsby's Tavern Restaurant continues the tradition of providing fine dining and entertainment, featuring dishes inspired by early American cuisine and served by staff dressed in period costumes. The tavern was named after John Gadsby, an Englishman who leased the property from 1796 to 1808. He hosted lavish parties and balls, making the establishment a hub for social events in the area. The building has been carefully preserved and restored, maintaining its original architectural features and providing a unique window into the past.
