Went to a Tavern concert at Richmondtown and was disappointed. The tavern is very small and furnished with picnic like tables and benches. The furnishing replicates the old time taverns but seat few and are uncomfortable. The small Tavern had approximately 30-35 attendees, not including entertainers. This Tavern should not have over 20 attendees to make for a comfortable setting.
I was sitting up against another attendee and was uncomfortable for the entire hour. Plus The service had to hop over me to serve drinks.
If richmondtown wants to have many attendees in these concerts, maybe they should have it in the big court house where there is room.

The Candle light concert the other evening was wonderful! The warmth of the crowd enjoying some great folk tunes, plus the beautiful candle light, made for a perfect and unique experience. Well done!
Great historical place to visit and learn some of the history of the first settlers here in New York, as well as the Native Americans who inhabited the area during the 1600s. Some original structures/buildings and artifacts from the time period are displayed and open to the public (need to reserve a tour)
This place is a gem. I have been to many events here but my favorite is the Candlelight Christmas Tour. It’s so well done, informative & fun. All the actors stay in character in the houses & teach us so much about the times they represent. This was the second year I took the tour & a new house was added. It was excellent! I highly recommend visiting this special place.
Amusing, informative and entertaining event. Great not only for children but also for adults - to learn more on history, immerse into a historical setting and feel a magic of Christmas and holidays season. Would definitely come back next week for visiting four more houses in addition to those which we’ve had a pleasure to see last Sunday.
Very good experience. I went the on July 4th. I had an enjoyable time with friends. We tasted the lemon pie, the apple pie and the ice-cream made following the old fashion recipe for lady wearing costumes from the 18th century. We marched in the parade. We went to the museum. And theater etc. many things to do in one place.
