Welcome to the Black Sheep Tavern

Where everyone is treated like Family.

About Us

A modern-twist to a former Berks County Speakeasy in the 1920s. Our family is bringing traditional PA Dutch comfort foods from a building with much history. Many hands have played a role in creating what is now "The Black Sheep Tavern" - a place where you can enjoy a great meal, have a drink, and feel like family.

Our Story

It all began in the 1920's where Ralph and Anna Riffert owned this property when prohibition started. For years, they operated the establishment despite paying fines for selling alcohol, gambling, and other illicit activities. Through the years, the property was sold, renovated, and operated through other owners. A couple of names was the Angelica Kennel Club and most recently, The Camelot Inn. Many hands have played a role in creating what is now "The Black Sheep Tavern", and we are excited to bring great meals, drinks, and history back to Berks County.
