York Tavern

York Tavern is a bar and restaurant at 3702 York Rd in Oak Brook, in a building Benjamin Fuller put up in 1843 on the west side of York Road north of the Salt Creek bridge. The kitchen turns out half-pound Certified Angus burgers, hand-tossed pizza, pasta, sandwiches and ribs, backed by a full bar. The tavern’s own history says the building is believed to be the oldest continuously operating, privately owned eating and drinking establishment in DuPage County.
