DC sends a
nice review of Mike's Tavern [Reading, Berks Co, PA ].
Makes me want to go there right now.
-
Smith's
Hotel [ Columbia, Lancaster Co ] is undergoing a big interior re-do.
I don't like it - too clean and bright. The latest Page 1 Girl, Tiffany,
was hard at work during a recent visit. She has one of the most unique piercings I have ever seen.
-
The White
Swan [ Rothsville, Lancaster County ] is again headed toward a
reopening. The best news of all is this business has returned to the
correct color - WHITE! The coolest thing is it sounds like the name may
remain the same.
-
Farewell to
our friend Bart Hannahoe, the long-time caretaker of the legendary
Hannahoe's Grave service. I will post his obituary here soon.

St Patrick's
Day
shenanigan's with reports from Lancaster's Molly's Pub and
Reading's Barbon's, Trooper Thorns and Slammers.
-
Pottstown is
not that far from Reading but it is a town I have rarely visited.
Reviews of two Montgomery County pubs will soon go up - the Olde
Gold Tavern and Jack Cassidy's Irish Pub
-
MARS
sends his thoughts from the field on two Berks County, PA taverns:
Cousins Pub and McArdles Pub. One negative experience and
one positive - see what he thought!
-
BEDS forwards
a nice review of the Corner House (Reading, Berks Co, PA).
Makes me want to eat there soon!
-
While
investigating a promising new local band, The Kilmaine Saints, I saw they
will be playing at the Pub Dunegal in Mt Joy.
Why the Tilted Kilt is now known as the (oddly spelled)
Pub Dunegal will have to be something I research soon.
-
A recent meeting took me to Al's Diamond Cabaret.
Read my thoughts in my new review.
-
Stopped by
B&N and picked up a copy of Berks County Living. They decided not
to use a photo of the painting I had commissioned (instead relying on a
shot of the painting that hangs in the Peanut Bar). The one page
article does an OK job of summarizing the Hannahoe's Grave service - and
it closes with a mention of this website. I will ask them if I can include
a copy on the Hannahoe page.

Mmm mmm good lunch at the Reinholds Tavern (or whichever of
its many names you choose to use - Lancaster Co, PA)
-
The Black Horse (Adamstown, Lancaster Co, PA) is as cozy as
ever but minus the fantastical spicy mustard that always graced the bar
-
Posted a snowy photo of the former Denver House. This was
one of the best old-fashioned pubs around. RIP

The
Ceremony at Hannahoe's Grave will be featured in the March 2010 issue of
Berks County Living magazine (www.berkscountyliving.com).
They may be using a photograph of the painting that was commissioned to
honor old Tom.

BEDS offers brief thoughts on a recent visit to Cafe Waldorf
(Reading, Berks Co PA)
-
Review
of Patsy Fagan's Irish Pub (Lebanon, Lebanon County, PA). I really
liked this place and the owner was hard at work behind the bar.
-
White Swan (Lancaster Co,
PA) - sounds like it is DOA
