More Bed and Breakfast Inns with Pubs!
Pubs at B&B Inns are Popular at ILoveInns.com
Such was the positive response to the iloveinns.com first selection of bed and breakfast/country inns which also house pubs, that it only made sense for America’s premier B&B/country inn portal to offer you some more!
Pub Grub at Palmer House Pub
On the shore of Crystal Lake in Eaton, New Hampshire, you will find the 1884-vintage Greek Revival‘Inn at Crystal Lake. Inside the Inn you will find the Palmer House Pub. Named for the inn’s original owner Nathaniel Palmer, the pub features a warm atmosphere highlighted by its wooden bar, originally installed in the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. Classic Martinis and Manhattans are always in season, but innkeeper/bartender Tim has a few specialty drinks that he’d be happy to make for you. Try a bowl of his award-winning chili to top off your visit!
Dead or Alive at The Livery PubHistory meets hospitality at the Herr Tavern & Publick House in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Built as an inn in 1815, this business was overrun by the Confederate Army during the Battle of Gettysburg and turned into a hospital for their wounded troops. Today, the Herr Tavern & Publick House is reputed to have many ghosts wandering about, including one that clearly asked the owner and a friend for a beer–twice! You can play ghostbuster yourself by staying a night in this country inn. To heighten your imagination, be sure to drop by The Livery pub for a few pints before turning in!
Music and More at McGrath’s Irish Pub
Fancy an authentic Irish pub experience? Then visit McGrath’s Irish Pub, inside the Inn at Long Trail in Killington, Vermont. Featuring authentic Gaelic music every week, McGrath’s is a true family pub offering the best in beers and Irish whiskeys. (McGrath’s was the first pub in Vermont to offer Guinness on tap.) There are three dart boards, a large-screen TV for must-see games, and a pub menu that features Shepherd’s Pie, Guinness Stew and the well-loved Paddy Melt.
R&R at Rogue’s Harbor Inn
The Rogue’s Harbor Inn in Ithaca, New York has been offering accommodations and libations since 1830. In its time, many shady things have happened at this inn, including the stashing of counterfeit currency in its attic. (The dies that printed the phony bills were discovered inside a nearby house.) But that was the past; today, the Rogue’s Harbor Inn is an elegantly restored country inn famous for the beauty of its period fittings and its wonderful pub with a wide range of beers and ales on tap. Make sure you have some time to spare, because you will want to leisurely quaff beverages such as Brooklyn Brune Abby Ale, Rooster Fish Nut Brown, Saranac Pale Ale and Victory Hop Devil.
Good food and drink at Gossip
Just a short walk from the harbor in Camden, Maine, historic Whitehall Inn has been popular with celebrities and world leaders. Stay in the newly remodeled main inn and savor casual fine dining at Vincent’s, the inn’s dining room. For innovative pub fare and a full-service bar, Gossip, the onsite pub is the only place to be.
