- Description:
- Jack's Twin Bar is located at the main intersection of Broadway and Market Street. It's a neighborhood establishment with lots of rich history. According to Bill Haley himself, The Twin Bar is THE Birthplace of Rock 'N' Roll. Back in 1951-52 Bill Haley and the Saddlemen (soon to become the Comets) played at the Twin Bar for an unprecedented 18 months. During this time they merged different styles of music and came up with what they called Cowboy Jive. The young crowd at the Twin Bar took to this new sound and provided Haley with the encouragement he needed to forge on with this new style which we now call Rock 'N" Roll which is still melding into different forms 55 years later! Jack's came about when a long time resident and her husband purchased the property back in 2004. Serving ale, wine & spirits along with delicious tavern food with the buffalo wings and crab-cakes being the specialty has put Jack's in the mix with some of the best Gloucester City has to offer.
