Witmer's Tavern, also known as the Conestoga Inn Tavern, is a historic inn and tavern located at East Lampeter Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, just east of U.S. 30 on Old Philadelphia Pike. It is a large 2 1/2-story, rectangular blue limestone building. The original section was built about 1725, and expanded in 1773. It was renovated in 1978. and was later operated as a bed-and-breakfast.
Up until 2005, the historic tavern had two barns that stood on its property. The structures were torn down after part of the lot was sold to build town homes. A prop airplane crashed into one of the barns, but both the pilot and passenger survived. Significant damage was done to the roof and rafters which could have been the cause for the barns being torn down.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
