(c)2007 Incorrigible CurmudgeonThis is the last restaurant in the Little Tavern chain left in Metropolitan Washington, DC. This one is on Route 1 Southbound, just south of Main Street in Laurel, MD. It closed shortly after I shot this photo over the Christmas holidays, supposedly to re-open soon. Not sure if it ever did. Downtown Silver Spring used to have two of these, one's now a red-roofed paper company, the other a yellow-roofed Chinese carryout. Another dying piece of Americana.

I love Little Tavern!I'm ready to fly from Denver tommaro to eat at Little Tavern,that really takes me back.
I live in laurel, and it did close :[ and its now a little donut bakery
It did reopen with donuts but they still have the same Little Tavern Burgers.
Well, at least the building is still there. I hate when people tear down cute things and put up something ugly. Buildings should be built in pairs, like shoes. But well built. Like the Little Tavern.
While the Little Tavern Shops are now history, I managed to remove all of the neon signs from the Laurel LT. (I own a signshop and did the new signs). Check out my Little Tavern page at www.Normanssigngarden.mysite.com.
