Serving Traditional & Exquisite American Fare. Our circa 1796 hotel is steeped in history, being the boyhood home of our nation's 15th President, James Buchanan. The Pub and Dining area has a warm candlelit ambiance with English tables, brass candlesticks, original tin ceilings, and a collection of eclectic paintings and prints. A strong European flavor is present and enhanced with our outdoor courtyard which is available for seasonal dining and events.
