The Drummer’s Lot Pub will unveil signature historical drink specials with a modern twist. The pub is well-known for the location of the drummer William Butterfield, who conveyed the daily news of the town through a variety of complex drum beats. During the 1750’s he spread public information to the people of Annapolis, standing on what locals called the “Drummer’s Lot.” In 1776, this historic lot became the home of the Maryland Inn, a popular place for lodging throughout the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries.
Today the Maryland Inn and its vintage sister properties, the Governor Calvert House and the Robert Johnson House, form the Historic Inns of Annapolis, each with a unique ambiance that reflects the colorful stories of yesteryear’s famous guests. Present-day guests enjoy modern features and amenities, enhanced by the rich traditions of this charming seaport community.
