About The Pineville
Built in the 18th century, The Pineville Tavern has seen many transformations—from feed mill to general store to hotel and, finally, to the Tavern.
By 1765, the original residence was converted to an inn along the busy Philadelphia-New York City route, serving stagecoach drivers and hungry locals alike. It became a central meeting place within the community. A landmark.
With an addition to the property in 1797, the Pineville Hotel was born. In the mid 1800s, when liquor licenses became mandatory, we were one of the original 13 recipients of the distinction within the storied Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
Fast forward to the 1950s when we became a general store to boot. Then, in 1969, the Turner Brothers (Hugh, Jack and Joe) purchased the Pineville. At the time, the bar only seated nine and offered cold sandwiches. That bar was expanded, and the kitchen was renovated with the addition of a grill, fryer, and pizza oven. Shaffer, Schlitz and Schmidt's were the tavern’s main taps.
The Abruzzese family purchased the Pineville Tavern in 1989 and have subsequently flourished the brand with strategic additions to the property, an elevated menu, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
