The Old 76 House

The Old 76 House stands as a three-story colonial building with four fireplaces, wooden beams, and traditional architectural elements from the 18th century.

Built in 1754 by merchant Casparus Mabie, this tavern gained prominence as a temporary prison for British spy Major John André during the American Revolution.

The tavern maintains its heritage through regular live music performances, traditional American cuisine, and displays of Revolutionary War period artifacts.

Located at 110 Main Street, the establishment functions as both a restaurant and historical site, offering dining services and guided tours throughout the week.

The building served as a headquarters for General Nathanael Greene and hosted meetings with George Washington during the Continental Army campaigns.
