Our Story

Established in 1958.
In 1958, William T. Kelly and his son Ron opened a luncheonette in the Bustleton section of Philadelphia, serving Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. With the luncheonette business steadily growing, Bill and Ron decided it was time to move to a better location with more room, but still in the Bustleton area. Kelly's Tavern became a popular place to enjoy Lunch and Dinner, or just a cold beer.
