I grew up in Bethesda, Maryland, and since this area has everything one could ever need, I’ve never left. I started working for Clyde’s of Chevy Chase while in college at the University of Maryland, and every time my class schedule became lighter, they gave me more responsibilities until I finally became manager. After six years in Chevy Chase, they asked me to come to The Tombs. I spent four years on the Hilltop before again being asked to move, this time to the Old Ebbitt Grill. Following the pandemic, I was asked to return to The Tombs to help get the restaurant up and running again.</em> <h3 class="x_xmsonormal">Pat Kernan’s Mapping Georgetown Story</h3> <p>We also remember Pat Kernan’s oh-so-romantic Mapping Georgetown story <a href="https://georgetowner.com/articles/2022/02/07/georgetown-love-stories/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-safelink="true" data-linkindex="0">https://georgetowner.com/articles/2022/02/07/georgetown-love-stories/</a> <div id="attachment_253399" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-253399" class="wp-image-253399 size-large lazyload" data-src="https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2-1024x1021.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="1021" data-srcset="https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2-1024x1021.jpg 1024w, https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2-768x766.jpg 768w, https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2.jpg 1280w" data-sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" style="--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024/1021;" /><noscript><img decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-253399" class="wp-image-253399 size-large" src="https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2-1024x1021.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="1021" srcset="https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2-1024x1021.jpg 1024w, https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2-768x766.jpg 768w, https://georgetowner.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/thumbnail_image001-2.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></noscript><p id="caption-attachment-253399" class="wp-caption-text">Pat Kernan’s Mapping Georgetown Story.

That was the year the Federal government was established, Georgetown University founded and Georgetown, Md., incorporated. And “The Tombs”? Inspired by T.S. Eliot’s “Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats.” In it, “Bustopher Jones, The Cat About Town” likes to lunch at the tomb. (Add to that McCooey’s nickname in the Air Force: “Bustopher Cat.”) As for the now private club, F. Scott’s, it is named after author F. Scott Fitzgerald, a distant cousin of Francis Scott Key, author of “the Star-Spangled Banner.” See <cite><span lang="EN"><a href="https://georgetowner.com/articles/2012/08/03/50-years-1789-and-tombs-and-party-founder-richard-mccooey/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-safelink="true" data-linkindex="3">https://georgetowner.com<span class="x_apple-converted-space"> </span><span class="x_dyjrff">› articles › 2012/08/03 › 50-…</span></a></span></cite> <p class="x_MsoNormal"><span class="x_hgkelc"><span lang="EN">In 1789, The Tombs is built in a Federal-style townhouse dating from the mid-1800s.

As a student, Richard McCooey dreamed of founding a dining establishment that was uniquely tied to Georgetown University. In the early 1960s, about a decade after McCooey graduated from Georgetown, he realized his dream here on the corner of 36th and Prospect. <p>He gutted the building to make room for 1789 and dug out a basement to make room for The Tombs. 1789, of course, is named after the popularized founding date of Georgetown. The upscale steakhouse used to have a takeout window at the top of the staircase to the basement. <p>The name “The Tombs” is a reference to T.S. Eliot’s poem “Bustopher Jones: The Cat About Town.” In it, an elegantly dressed cat travels to fine eating clubs around London. The poem states that, “if he looks full of gloom then he’s lunched at the Tomb / On cabbage, rice pudding, and mutton.” Known for his penchant for fashion, McCooey earned the nickname “Bustopher Cat” in the Air Force. He felt it was only appropriate to name his special underground restaurant “The Tombs.” <p>Tombs is home to many Georgetown traditions. Since 1964, the Chimes – an all male barbershop a capella group made up of Georgetown students – have hosted a monthly “Chimes Night” where they sing for customers. When student turn 21, they’re known to stop by for their “Tombs Night” and get a Tombs stamp marked on their forehead. Some seniors are even known to go to Tombs each day for their last 99 days before graduation to get their name on a plaque inside.  <div class="pp-multiple-authors-boxes-wrapper
