Spurrier's Tavern

Spurrier's Tavern was a tavern and horse-changing depot which stood by the main road between Baltimore and Washington, D.C. (now U.S. Route 1) from 1771 to 1835. During the American Revolutionary War, the tavern was significant as a supply and resting point for the Continental Army; George Washington was a frequent visitor.

Later renamed Waterloo by an anti-Napoleon innkeeper, the tavern served stagecoaches bound for Washington, D.C., during the early 19th century.

The former location of the tavern is now a major intersection between U.S. 1 and Maryland Route 175 in Jessup, Maryland. A Holiday Inn now occupies the site, which bears Maryland historical markers.
