My friend wanted to celebrate her 70th birthday at Pete’s Tavern in our hood. It’s that historic tavern on the corner of Irving and 18th that’s pre-Civil War.
It’s the popular tavern that’s been around since the mid 1800s that’s served WHO. It’s served the oldest continuously operating restaurant & bar in New York City, one where O.Henry, author of the “Gift of the Magi”, was said to be a regular.
And their burgers are worth it, and more than a meal. Fries are worth the calories. Truth, I couldn’t even finish, taking I half home for dinner .
When you’re in the mood for a burger, I highly recommend.
When I made the reservation, I had mentioned that we were celebrating a birthday. We didn’t order dessert and they didn’t do anything. Just noting.
