A favorite in Bristol since 1681, King George II Inn holds the title of “America’s oldest continuously operating inn." It has hosted such notable Americans as General George Washington and President James Madison.
Chock full of historic charm, this Pennsylvania restaurant features, in addition to its dining area, five private dining rooms that can be booked for special occasions. If you’re lucky, you might score a table by a window that overlooks the Delaware River.
During the Revolutionary War, the inn served as the headquarters for American soldiers ahead of the Crossing of the Delaware.
King George II Inn earns stellar marks from diners for its top-notch service and friendly staff, delicious food, and enchanting historic ambiance. Some, however, consider the historic spot a bit pricey, so you might want to take a peek at the menu before heading over.
Take a few minutes to browse the all-day menu that’s packed with delicious dishes. For a tasty prelude to your entrée, order an appetizer like calamari, chicken wings, or hummus.
If you prefer a piping hot bowl of soup and/or a salad, you have several from which to choose. Lobster bisque is served all day, but make sure you ask your server about the soup of the day, too.
Then you just have to decide what type of meal you’re craving – a handheld or an entrée. The menu offers such classic handhelds as cheese steak, Kobe burgers, and fried fish sandwiches. All handhelds come with house-made potato chips, which you can substitute with fries or coleslaw.
Even just a glance at the entrees is sure to get your mouth watering. From crab cakes and English fish and chips to stuffed bell peppers and Kobe meatloaf, there’s something for every taste, including vegetarians.
