Okay, we’ve hit that magical number of 200 bars tonight! And to celebrate this monumental occasion, I thought we’d pick up a celebratory cake at Trefzger’s Bakery before we travel off to our 200th bar of this traveling tavern journey.

So it’s off to Trefzger’s Bakery we go for a sweet treat for tonight’s 200th stop!

Here we are at Trefzger’s Bakery and there’s Mike with our special cake for the 200th bar of this bubbly journey!

Mike is a member of the band Lark’s Tongue and you can follow their adventures by clicking here. Great to see him again!

Okay, we’ve secured the cake, now on to bar number 200 with our weekly guest star, Jim/Karl behind the wheel!

Bar Number 200: Crowbar’s Pottstown Tap, Wednesday, August 26, 2026

There’s the aforementioned Karl behind the wheel and this is his 23rd guest appearance on the 365 bar blog! It’s always fun to have Karl along for the ride and evening!

Here we are at Crowbar’s Pottstown Tap. The bar used to be known as simply, Pottstown Tap, but last July, Greg and Geremy Crow purchased the bar and renamed it, Crowbar’s Pottstown Tap.

There’s also a going-away party for Nora and Brian happening tonight, according to the sign!

Okay, Karl, as always, has the door as we prepare to begin night number 200 on this 365 nightly bar crawl tour!

Wow, there’s a big crowd in here tonight, the bar is packed!

There’s Tab, the pretty and friendly bartender on duty serving me up a PBR tallboy. Tab and I have met on an earlier blog and it was great to see her smiling face again!

There were no seats at the bar, so Karl and I had to improvise and…

Settle in at this secondary bar on the back wall.

There’s Karl with his drink modeling this week’s t-shirt, and this is a special one, it’s one of my brother Jim’s Swami Stuff Graphics t-shirt! Very cool, thanks for wearing that this week, Karl!

Cheers to my brother, Jim!

After a few minutes two seats opened up on the corner of the bar and we snagged them.

Then Karl ordered up a sausage and cheese Butch’s Pizza and it was delicious as always!

There’s the lit-up back of the bar, there’s a row of table opposite the bar and gaming machines line the far wall for all of you gamblers out there.

The specials are written on this chalkboard on the back wall.

I made an announcement about this being the 200th bar and took a photo of everyone waiting for me to shut up so they could have some cake!

There’s Tab opening up the Trefzger’s cake box and there she is with the sweet product out of the box!

Annie Spears snuck out of Jimmy’s Bar to come to the celebration and there she is leaning up against the bar while Tab cuts the cake. Annie’s looking fabulous and it’s always great to see her!

Sara came over and said hi and she reminded me that we met back in 2017 when she owned Biggie’s Bar. Click on this link to see that post.

Biggie’s is now Tavern 41 and that was the 36th bar we went to back in February. Great to see Sara again!

I took a shot of Jim seated at the end of the bar as the night was winding down.

Thanks to Tab for the wonderful service and helping out to cut the cake.

And thanks to Jim/Karl for driving, hanging out and making his 23rd guest appearance on the blog. Could next week be his 24th? Stay tuned to find out!
