And Warren Tavern seems more authentically old than the Green Dragon and Bell-in-Hand taverns along Union-Marshall Streets (on the freedom trail) that are very old but haven't been in their current locations all those years so they don't seem all that old on the inside.
Union Oyster bar, Union & Marshall, is really old and has some info about the habits of Senator Daniel Webster of Mass, a patron who had lots to drink there to wash down his oysters. Webster served in the Senate from 1827 to 1850, prior to Charles Sumner of Mass, the fiery abolitionist, famous for being beaten with a cane on the senate floor in 1856 by South Carolina Rep Preston Brooks.
