Stanley's Tavern

Delaware


It's sports, sport, sports on the television screens at this upbeat and beloved neighborhood bar, sprawled across several rooms in a building that's been a watering hole since 1935. It's an all-ages crowd in the dining room for the burgers, boardwalk fries and American fare. Everyone's here or on the way.
