The original tavern was built in 1771 and was destroyed by fire in 1784.  Within one year a new tavern was constructed on the original 1771 foundation using materials that had been designated for the construction of the Single Sister's house.  The most famous visitor to the tavern was President George Washington who visited for two days in 1791.  In 1941 the tavern was donated to the Wachovia Historical Society who later leased the building to Old Salem, Inc.
