Massachusetts has quite the extensive history. It’s home to some of the oldest cities and towns in the entire country. Therefore, it would only make sense that it’s also home to some of the oldest bar establishments in our nation’s history, too, right? As it turns out, Massachusetts is home to three of the absolute oldest bars in America! And each of those three bars are just about as old as America.
This past July 4th, America celebrated its 249th birthday. It might be crazy to think that Massachusetts is home to some bars that are roughly about that same age, but that is the reality for these three establishments.
The popular history publication ‘History Collection‘ released their list of the oldest bars in America. Not only were these spots founded in the same century as when America became a country, but one of these spots is actually a little bit older than our country.
