In its list of the oldest bars in every state, VinePair identified The Pirates' House as Georgia's first. It's housed in an old inn and tavern founded in 1753 as the state became more established, welcoming in more visitors. The inn and tavern grew out from what was the Herb House, built in 1734 as a home to the gardener of what was the first public agricultural experimental garden in America, which was established by Georgia's founder James Oglethorpe in 1733. How did the Pirates House get its name? As Savannah became a thriving seaport, the inn/tavern was a popular destination for sailors.
