Located in Townsend, MA, Townsend House is a beloved family-owned restaurant offering a full menu of home-style cooking. Known for its real mashed potatoes and delectable homemade onion rings, the restaurant also features nightly specials and irresistible desserts.

Steeped in history, the building housing Townsend House dates back to 1870 when it was constructed by the Fessenden Company, once a prominent barrel manufacturing business in the country. Purchased by the Dickhaut family in 1974, the restaurant has been a local favorite ever since, with the second and third generations now actively involved in its operation.

Retaining its old-world charm, Townsend House boasts a cozy atmosphere with a solid wood bar, vintage décor, and a choice of seating between tables and booths.
