Philly’s oldest surviving Revolutionary-era bar is open for the first time in over a century
A Man Full of Trouble reopened in December and serves a selection of Succession Fermentory’s —the tavern’s new operators — farmhouse beers and ferments on draft and in cask and bottle, plus a curated list of Pennsylvania wines and spirits. The old bar’s upstairs rooms have been transformed into a gallery and museum filled with relics dedicated to the neighborhood’s Revolutionary past and the story of tavern life in America.
