{{more footnotes|date=September 2018}}Ye Olde Tavern is a restaurant in Manchester Center, Vermont, USA, that is listed on the Vermont Register of Historic Places.[1] It was built by Aaron Sheldon from Dorset, Vermont, in 1790, making it the oldest inn in the state of Vermont.[2][1] It was also one of the first buildings in Manchester to house telephone lines, and was once "the headquarters for the movement to license the sale of 'spirituous beverages'."[2] It began as a tavern in 1790 called The Stagecoach Inn,[1] before becoming Lockwood's Hotel circa 1850.[2] In 1860, the building was renamed Thayer's Hotel by the new owner, Steven Thayer.[1] It became the Fairview Hotel in 1902 and, in 1934, it was a hotel and antique shop run by the new owner Walter Clemons.[1] In 1975, it was renamed Ye Olde Tavern by Peter and Susan Palmer, who renovated the place in time for the 1976 United States Bicentennial.[1] The restaurant still has traces from its past.[2]Mark and Diedre Radicioni became the proprietors of Ye Olde Tavern around 1993. They took it over after losing their own restaurant in Manchester to a fire.[2] During their time as proprietors, Ye Olde Tavern was named the 1996 Restaurant of the Year by the National Restaurant Academy in the "Most Outstanding Value" category.[2] Michael and Minna Brandt have been the proprietors of Ye Olde Tavern since November 2001.[3][4] The restaurant has a colonial setting and Michael Brandt commented, "When people step into the Ye Olde Tavern, it's like stepping back in time. The experience whisks you away to a bygone era."[3] The tavern currently has seven dining rooms, two of which are upstairs, with ninety seats and a full bar.[3] In 2012, Ye Olde Tavern was recognized as one of ten 'Green Restaurants' by the State of Vermont.[5] GalleryReferences1. ^{{cite news|title=History museum to close|last=McArdle|first=Patrick|work=Bennington Banner|date=April 21, 2006 }}
