This eatery is one of the oldest continuously operating Inn’s serving food in Pennsylvania. The cornerstone on the front upper floor reads, “Built by Jos. & Ann Bowman 1859 A.D”. In the early years, the Inn was named Ye Olde Golden Key Hotel. In the early 1900s, it was owned by George S. Trafford.
George was born in Jonestown and worked as an Ironworker in his younger years. He was also a master marksman. He lived in Lebanon on South Eighth Street and passed away at the age of 69. Blanche Molly was the owner of the Inn during Prohibition. The Inn was called Molly’s Tea Room during Prohibition and was just one of the many Tea Room’s or illegal speak-easies that operated at that time.
