In 1967 Robert McKee and his wife
Larue started humbly but with a
grand plan to create a cozy place
for all to eat, drink and be merry.
Bob and Larue’s daughter, Peggy
decided to follow in her parent’s
footsteps. Peggy took the bar into
new directions by tearing down the
old tavern back in 2001 and built
the new Friendly Tavern, Irish Pub
and Six Pack Shop. The Friendly
Tavern has been in Peggy’s family
for forty-nine years. Peggy’s sons
Bob Kiel and William Kiel became
part owners of The Friendly Tavern
in 2015 making it three generations
of hospitality and fun.
