Get ready to indulge in a four-course feast while traveling back in history at the 18th Century Tavern Night at the Queens County Farm Museum.
The Farm Night event, located at 73-50 Little Neck Pkwy. in Floral Park, will be held in the historic Adriance Farmhouse, where staff will be dressed in 18th century attire and provide colonial history throughout the evening.
The special evening will take place on select weekends, starting Friday, Nov. 14, from 8 to 11 p.m., featuring a freshly prepared meal from the chef’s kitchen, served by candlelight.
Tickets for the event cost $98, and the tavern-inspired feast offers a unique way to enjoy fall and winter evenings on the farm, including recipes that are true to the time period.
The first course features freshly baked bread, churned butter, and a selection of pickled vegetables. Next, guests will be served a warm bowl of pottage of pompion, also known as pumpkin soup. To follow, the main course will consist of roast beef, chicken fricassee, red cabbage and apples, and spicy corn relish. For dessert, cinnamon flop with whipped cream will be served. Beer, wine, cider, and on-theme cocktails will be available for purchase.
For large groups, there is also an option for a private tavern night, available on Thursday evenings in November and December, accommodating groups of up to 42 people with a minimum of 26 people. Please inquire through Queens Farm for more information.
