𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐘𝐞! 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐘𝐞!

Long before coffee shops, social media, and community centers, America had taverns.

They were the heartbeat of their communities.

Neighbors gathered to exchange news. Travelers shared stories from distant places. Friendships were formed. Businesses were started. Ideas were debated. History was witnessed…and sometimes even made.

(And yes…more than a few questionable decisions were probably made after one ale too many. 😄)

That’s what History, Haunts & Hamburgers is all about.

Not recreating the past.

Just rediscovering something we’ve quietly lost.

A place where people can gather, share a meal, tell stories, ask questions, laugh, learn, and leave knowing one another a little better than when they arrived.

And apparently, quite a few of you agree.

So, for the third time, we’re getting together at Hanover Tavern for another evening of good food, great company, and whatever rabbit holes happen to find us.

History. Haunted places. Folklore. Astronomy. Science. Philosophy. Books. Archaeology. Preservation. Weird things somebody read at 2:00 in the morning and desperately needs to tell another human being about.

We don’t particularly care where the conversation goes.

That’s half the fun.

There are no presentations.

No investigations.

No lectures.

No expectations.

Whether you’re fascinated by any of those things, or you simply enjoy spending an evening around curious people…

🍔 Dinner is purchased individually.

📞 Reservations aren’t required, but they’re highly recommended. If you’d like to guarantee yourself a seat, especially if you’d like to sit with the group, please consider calling Hanover Tavern ahead of time ((804) 537-5050).

☀️ Weather permitting, we’ll plan to gather on the patio beginning around 6:15 PM.

⏰ Can’t make it right at 6:15? No worries. Swing by whenever you can. We usually hang around for quite a while, and there’s always room for another conversation.

❤️ One small favor: please be patient with the Hanover Tavern staff. If we have another great turnout, we’ll essentially be overrunning the restaurant, which is a wonderful problem to have! Food may take a little longer than usual, but we’ll have plenty of good company while we wait.
