NIAGARA-ON-THE-LAKE, ONTARIO

The Olde Angel been in near-continuous operation since 1789, experiencing only a small hiccup when it was burned to the ground during the War of 1812. It was rebuilt in 1815 in the same location. But 223 years, give or take two or three, is not too shabby. Originally the Harmonious Coach House, the Angel Inn (so named in 1815) is today a charming place to spend the night in a charming Victorian town, and a casual spot for a pint of Guinness or Upper Canada Lager and a hearty meal of steak-and-kidney pie with Yorkshire pudding.
