DAYLIGHT: Old Town Bar and Restaurant by Bobby, Gerard, Matt, Claire, and Denise Meagher Since 1892 Celebrates 125 Years in Manhattan September 17, 2017



"Old Town is a piece of Old New York that remains consistent to this day as a classic tavern of a bygone era. What distinguishes us is that my family has been a New York family for about 200 years so we are a remnant of Old New York as well. Old New York is character, style, and value in the sense that we pride ourselves to be appealing to the working man as well as the well-to-do. Old Town is a stunning beauty."
-Gerard Meagher

You may have walked by Old Town many times, but do you realize it is 125 years old this year!?!!!

We are honored to have been included in the private celebration of this glorious venue that has touched the lives of so many for so long, thank you Gerard. The Meagher family has been proud owners for decades: Bobby, Gerard, Matt, Claire, Tommy (deceased) and Denise, brothers and sisters. Their father Larry had been at the helm earlier.

We continue to be fabulously impressed by Gerard and Old Town.
