History

'Deer Park Tavern', located in Newark, Delaware, and built in 1851 on the land where the remains of the burned down St. Patrick's Inn had resided since 1747.
The St. Patrick’s Inn was said to house famous historical figures such as George Washington and in 1843 Edgar Allan Poe stayed a night here.
The first railroad line built through Newark in 1869 is close to the building, and helped to escalate the hotel’s popularity. At this time, The Deer Park was considered one of the finest hotels on the east coast. Much history surrounds the Deer Park including rumors that the basement was used as part of the Underground Railroad during the Civil War.
Located in downtown Newark, Delaware, the Deer Park Tavern, was converted from a hotel in the mid-twentieth century, and enjoys the college atmosphere of the nearby University of Delaware campus.
Today, the patrons include University of Delaware students and staff, business people and locals. The nightly atmosphere varies with bands, DJs and drink specials that bring a hefty crowd each night of the week.
