Tondee’s Tavern – The Spooky Starting Point to The Ghost City Pub Crawl

 

Tondee’s Tavern, located at 7 Bay Street in the richly historic downtown section of Savannah, is the spooky starting point to The Ghost City Pub Crawl. This restaurant and bar is locally-owned and is located inside of a former bank building from the 1850s. The name of the tavern stems from one of the earliest and highly successful tavern that was located in Savannah. That historical tavern was located at the corner of Whitaker Street and Broughton Street during the years of 1770 to 1785. The ground floor of the historic building was originally utilized by the Central Railway and Banking Company. On the upper floor of the building, the most popular slave broker, Joseph Bryan, had his offices in the 1850s. Immediately outside of the building, to the rear, a massive slave pen was set up. Many claim that a number of slaves were held in the basement of Tondee’s Tavern. To date, this rumor has not been verified; however, there are several videos and EVPs that indicate that something unworldly lingers beneath the floor of the tavern. During the Civil War, the General John Geary, used this specific location where he commanded the city immediately after its surrender.
