How We Got Here Today!

Over a hundred years ago, the Mee family had a vision. They saw an opportunity to expand their bottling business and enter the retail market, providing bourbon and Ales to thirsty New Yorkers. They built a four-story building, with retail on the first floor, a home for their family on the second, and space for immigrants on the third and fourth. It was a bustling hub of activity until prohibition forced its closure. The building changed hands, becoming Uncle's Café, a bar run by a local Irish politician. Sadly, the upper floors fell into disrepair, and the rooms meant for new immigrants became a brothel. Even though the building underwent many changes, it's important to remember the family who had a dream and worked hard to make it a reality. Their legacy lives on today as Uncle's Café, where people can come together to share a drink and a story.

 

When Evo "Curly" Donnini and his wife Martha took over the Hampton Court Tavern in 1962, they had the vision to turn it into a high-end food and wine establishment that reflected the Tudor style of King Henry VIII Palace. With a budget of over one million dollars, they embarked on an ambitious project to restore the building to its former glory. Today, the Tavern is not only a popular dining destination but has also received architectural design awards for its stunning design. The Savini/Moylan Family, who currently own the Tavern, have worked hard to preserve its historic charm while also providing their customers with comfort foods and a charming dining experience. Whether you choose to dine in the Tavern, Hampton Court, or the Outdoor Courtyard Patio & Bar, you will be treated to an unforgettable dining experience that is steeped in history and charm.


At Ciro's Tavern we take pride in ourselves every day to ensure that you have the best experience. We spend countless hours figuring out how to make the experience better than the last.
