Bull's Head Tavern, Colonial tavern on Bowery, Manhattan, United States.
The establishment featured wooden beams, brick walls, and traditional American furnishings spread across multiple floors of the building on Bowery Street.
George Washington selected this location as his temporary military headquarters during November 1783 after British forces evacuated New York City.
The tavern served as a central meeting point for Manhattan residents, including local butchers and merchants conducting business in the early colonial period.
Henry Astor, who managed the establishment during the late 1700s, transformed the tavern into a profitable venture through strategic partnerships with local traders.
The establishment relocated to Third Avenue and East 23rd Street in 1813, marking the beginning of commercial development in the northern parts of Manhattan.
