Six Paupers Tavern & Restaurant is a family run business operated by brothers Michael
and Stephen Lucey. Both natives of Wilmington Delaware, Mike and Steve opened their
first restaurant, Dead
Presidents Pub, in 1997. Based on that success they
plotted the course for a larger restaurant with two decks and private banquet facilities.
Six Paupers opened on May 10th 2004 and is housed in the former Shields Lumber Warehouse
building in the heart of historic Hockessin.
The name Six Paupers was taken from the first hand written census of Hockessin
which declared that there were "six paupers living within city limits" at the time.
Every effort was made in design and construction of Six Paupers to reflect the classic
historic vibe of Hockessin and nearby towns of Chadds Ford and Kennett Square.
Etched glass doors, original local artwork, reclaimed barn wood bar floors, two custom
mahogany bars, a casually elegant dining area and two decks all add to the modern
rusticity and charm of Six Paupers.
Chef Jamie Nardozzi’s menu is unparalleled in presentation and taste. Specialty
dishes include lump crab cakes, potato crusted salmon, slow roasted ribs, firecracker
shrimp and crab & crawfish nachos.
Banquet facilities are available for business meetings, birthday parties, rehearsal
dinners, happy hours or any get-together. We are family friendly and serve a "Little
Paupers" menu seven days a week (see our Lunch and Dinner menus for details).
Have you seen the excellent three-star review the News Journal gave us?
