Location: Yonkers Brewing Company

Celebrate the 250th anniversary of these United States with friends and neighbors at Toast 250! Tavern Nights. Be transported to tavern life during the Revolution with historic guests, tavern games, music, libations and more!
Taverns were at the heart of social and political life in the 18th century—serving as community hubs where locals and travelers gathered to enjoy refreshments, exchange news, and share revolutionary ideas.
Join us for costumed reenactors, live historical tavern music, historical tavern games (courtesy of Philipse Manor Hall State Historic Site), and special Westchester-focused Revolutionary War trivia!
Feel free to dress the part—a drawstring skirt and mob cap, a tricorn hat and hunting shirt—or any outfit that puts you in the spirit of revolutionary fun! Let’s gather to learn, laugh, celebrate—and raise a toast to commemorate the 250th!
This month's Tavern Night takes place at Yonkers Brewing Company in downtown Yonkers, right next to the Yonkers Train Station.
