There are a lot of stories inside these walls.

This one goes back a little further than ours.

Long before there were cocktails at the bar and dinner being served, this building was part of everyday life in Olean.

And we love that it still is.

Anyone recognize a face in this photo or know the story behind it?

If this bar could talk…

It came to The Old Library from Chicago’s famed Cattleman’s Restaurant a place known for attracting some rather notorious characters in the 1920s and ’30s.

And yes, Al Capone is said to have been a frequent visitor.

How’s that for a little history with your cocktail?

Have a seat. You never know who may have sat at the bar before you.

This is Hailey (and, of course, Michael ).

Hailey is one of the people you might not see when you come into The Old Library but she's a big part of keeping this place running.

She's our dishwasher, working behind the scenes with the kitchen crew.
