Since 1746, the building that houses Black Powder Tavern has played a part in the establishment of our nation. It’s believed that during the infamous winter of 1777–1778 at Valley Forge, a major figure in the Continental Army, master military mind Friedrich Von Steuben, designated the tavern as a secret black powder munitions stash for Continental Army couriers. Today, we honor our historic tavern’s tradition with a mission to raise the spirits of our guests. We invite you to experience the small and large plates, craft beers and revolutionary hospitality that is Black Powder Tavern.
Rustic-chic hub serving small & large American plates & craft beers in a 1746 building with a patio.

Today I had the filet mignon special with potatoes and carrots. Possibly the best steak and definitely the best carrots i have e every had the pleasure to consume.
Ellegant, refined, patriotic, and yet cozy atmosphere. I will be thinking of this meal for quite some time.
And so, it’s vital having a rotation of places where we can (a) sit at the bar — ain’t no time for waiting for a table, (b) come slightly bedraggled and won’t be (obviously) judged, and (c) where the drinks and food are stellar (cause you have to amortize the cost of the childcare over the food and drinks).
Black Powder Tavern is that place!
The menu was massive and inviting, the drinks were delicious as were the wings (and I would come back for the wings alone — they were perfect: small, meaty with a nice crisp, not the huge rubbery kind that I hate; hot tangy sauce), and the brussel sprouts were awesome.
I’m not a beer guy but if that’s your thing your thing, this is your place as they have a lot of it, lol.
For food at a new place for us we usually start with the basics and then explore. We’re definitely coming back — BPT is in the rotation and we might even bring the kids next time:-)
The salad that I ordered was all right but the hamburger that my daughter ordered was way too sloppy and she was unable to keep the sandwich together after a couple bites. Just way too much moisture for a burger.
After all and said and done it was nearly 50 bucks for a business launch with no drinks, not even a soft drink.
We started with an Espresso Martini, my husband had a Smoked Old Fashion, with Cherry wood. Quite tasty.
Lafayette’s Onion Soup to start. It was one of the best onion soups I’ve had. It was silky, smooth, and full of flavor and Gruyère, Cheese was just the best on top. Also the Pub Plate, Fig jam on pork pate what a delightful twist and delicious, also the smoked brisket with pub mustard. Excellent choice. Needless to say I didn’t share too much with my husband.
His Wagyu Truffle Burger, medium rare with Parmesan Truffle fries was also cooked to delectable perfection.
I’m so sorry that I didn’t take pictures of our lunch the way it was played. It was so appetizing before we even tasted it. I would definitely recommend going to the Black Powder Tavern. We will be going back again.
A+ service, comfortable atmosphere and nice selection of beers and cocktails. They even have live music on some nights but it’s not super loud just perfect background level. The meatloaf, pot pie, steak, salads and burgers are all A+. Go now!! Like now!!
