Dayton History

Tavern Dinners

Tavern DinnersThis year, Dayton’s oldest surviving structure will once again be the backdrop for the region’s most unique dining experience. Guests of Tavern Dinners will enjoy the same type of meal that might have been served in Newcom Tavern to the likes of Daniel Cooper, William Van Cleve, Samuel Thompson and others. Following participation in hands-on demonstrations of 19th century activities at the William Morris House, guests will enjoy a hearth cooked and historically accurate multi-course supper. Live entertainment and a special dessert will follow the candlelit dinner.
