Built in 1720, the tavern is a private residence today. It is said that because the majority of 18th century colonists were illiterate, the tavern used pictures on most of its signs.

The tavern was in the Malin family until 1886 when a parcel was sold to the husband of Alice Malin George. It remained in the George family until 1932.

The tavern is located at 261 Swedesford Road.
