Lonely Planet review for Fraunces Tavern
Can you really pass up a chance to eat where George Washington (it's been documented) supped in 1762? Expect heaping portions of tavern stew, clam chowder, beef Wellington and your choice of cobbler, butterscotch bread pudding, spiked fig and apple tart or strawberry shortcake for dessert. The bar, filled with friendly locals, is great for a snack and a drink.

Epicurian Delight in a Historical Setting!
kjchj recommends this,
Wow ...one can certainly imagine themselves back in the 1700s and 1800s when dining in this carefully preserved bit of history! Truly a relaxing pub and tavern, the decor is so interesting in itself! The food is always fresh, warm and wonderful! We have enjoyed the stews, soups, breads and Shepards Pie. Never rushed, parties can choose from two rooms, both decorated in fine tapestry wallpapers and with pleasing old paintings. Located amongst the bustle of the Wall Street area, do take the time to find this enjoyable restaurant and museum!
