Inside The Dudley Chateau: a long wooden bar rail, dark wood ceiling, framed photographs and neon signs covering the walls, tables with black chairs.An empty stretch of the worn wooden bar counter at The Dudley Chateau.

I HAVE BEEN HERE A WHILE.

I started as a fishing lodge.
Then I was a speakeasy.
Then I was a men's drinking club.
Local lore puts Babe Ruth and Ted Williams at the bar.
Now I serve burgers.

Inside The Dudley Chateau: wooden booths, long bar rail, and neon signs along the downstairs dining room.

I HAVE A PATIO.
IT IS CALLED THE CHATIO.

Weddings & Private Events

GET MARRIED AT THE CHATEAU.

I have a pond.
I have food.
I have a bar.
I do not have a ballroom.

I have held weddings, retirements, fundraisers, and one wake that turned into a singalong, which is the correct outcome for a wake.

THE PART YOU WILL ASK ABOUT ANYWAY.

Inside, I seat [number].

The Chatio holds [number] more, May through October. The weather votes last.

The kitchen cooks. The bar pours. The cake is your problem.

If it rains, I am a bar with a roof. This has worked every time so far.

The floors are uneven. Plan the first dance accordingly.

Dates and prices: call 508-655-0010. Whoever answers will tell you the truth about what fits.

Not getting married? I also host fundraisers, parties and functions. Same rule as the stairs. If you come up, you are welcome.
