Database: Old Avery Tavern

This drinking spot, named after "The King of Pirates" Henry Avery, was highly popular among gritty seafarers in the early 18th century. Legend had it that Avery himself once had a financial stake in several establishments throughout the West Indies, but that appears to be nothing more than self-promotion.

(Note: I believe it was burned to the ground by a disgruntled pirate in the 1750s. - DM)
