Bedford Tavern

Bedford Tavern Proud to be the favorite spot this side of Baltimore for superior seafood and more, the highest quality beer, and a guaranteed great atmosphere.
(210)

Premium, upscale seafood without the high price tag can be tough to come by, but the Bedford Tavern & Seafood House is happy to fill that void. Tucked into small-town Bedford, PA, our historic venue began as a large home between 1822-1824 before operating as a variety store beginning in 1849. A basement Tavern was added in 1946 and expanded into a street-level restaurant in 2007. Our two-story eat

ery is stocked with every beer you can think of to accommodate those looking for a sports-bar feel, as well as an incredible seafood selection that loyal patrons on this side of Baltimore can't get enough of. We're willing to bet you'll have a good time with us, and our goal is to make sure everyone under our roof - from travelers to the ghosts that may or may not linger - feels welcome in the 200-year-old building we call home.

Any of our friends familiar with antique woodworking tools?

Our museum has a wonderful collection of woodworking tools, donated back in 1963. There are probably 200 tools, including 70-80 planers. All were catalogued, but most without photos. I've been adding the photos, and am down to just a handful that I haven't been able to find or identify.

The pics below are of three planes/planers we have that I can't identify... I know there are washboard planers, block planers, ogee planers, sun planers, coffin planers, cooper planers, jointer planers and probably dozens of others. Each of these planers are flat on the bottom (no patterns, no curves). The sizes are shown in the photo.

Can you tell me what any of these are? (Google lens has been helpful on a few but give very generic answers on these 3.)

Thanks.

(UPDATE: I got an id on the large plane/planer at the top. Still need the other two. Thanks!)

Just wanted to stop by and say hello. No, we will not be reopening The Bedford Tavern (though if any potential buyers wanted to reopen with that name, we are open to it).

We cancelled the phone number, after only about 5 calls in the three months since we closed. You can still message us here if you want.

If you desire a souvenir from your time at the Tavern, you'll find I have several things on Marketplace with "Bedford Tavern" in the name. If you want something that's not shown there, just message me - here or on my personal page and tell me what you are potentially interested in.

UPDATE: My current Tavern-related posting on Marketplace (other than some random, minor, kitchen equipment) are:
Anchor Hocking wine glasses

NEW, REALLY, FURTHER FURTHER FURTHER UPDATE: I just posted the last bunch of drinking-related promotional or otherwise souvenirs from the Tavern. They are shown as "Miscellaneous (mostly plastic) promotional materials from the Bedford Tavern, Parts 1 and 2. (You can only post ten photos at a time.)

Things like beer buckets, plastic shot glasses, martini glasses, festive glasses, mixing shakers, Crown Royal bags, etc. are now up.

From recent postings, there are still some lighted signs, trays, coasters, and paper promotional materials from the Bedford Tavern,
and
(Chips) Bowls from the Bedford Tavern

And there are still a few items left under the following two Marketplace categories:

Beer T-shirts from the Bedford Tavern

There may be a listing of some minor sports memorabilia in the near future.
