Item Special Note
JFK and Jackie frequently dined in Booth #3 at Martin's Tavern (he lived just 2 blocks down N Street at the time). On Wednesday, June 24 1953, having returned from covering the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth for the Washington Times Herald, Jacqueline Bouvier accepted John Kennedy's proposal of marriage. The next day Martin’s was a buzz with staff and customers talking about that “nice young Kennedy congressman” proposing to his girlfriend in their favorite booth. It has been know as "The Proposal Booth" since that day.
