    Uninterupted? Sounds like this place has never closed, even during war, in 300 years. I presume exceptions for holidays and maintenance.

      Tough to say, but we have a dozen restaurants in the U.S. older than 300 years, so it is plausible since we have only had the civil war on our soil in that time frame. There are multiple pubs in England that date (themselves) to 1200 years ago, too.

      Maybe the distinction isn’t just “continuously running” but also under the same name and without major renovations??
