Golden Ball Tavern Museum

Golden Ball Tavern Museum Explore this unique Revolutionary era tavern and learn about 200 years of Jones family history.

Built in 1768 on the Boston Post Road in Weston, the Golden Ball Tavern was the home of Isaac Jones, prominent Weston resident. He had built the house to be both his home as well as a tavern, and the tavern "at the sign of the Golden Ball" operated as an inn from 1770 to 1793. From then on, for six generations - over 200 years - it was occupied by members of the Jones family until it was acquired

by the Golden Ball Tavern Trust in the 1960's. Here history still lives and breathes, telling the story of change through time.

And... that's a wrap for the summer! We are saying a huge thank you and farewell to our wonderful summer intern, Bonnie Shao!

We are so grateful for all the fabulous content she created for our social media, bringing us a massive bump in followers. Thanks to her hard work, we’ve also been able to share more than a decade of the museum's history on our website with scanned and reformatted copies of archived 'Grapevine' newsletters! And we mustn't forget the 'crafts for kids' prep which has set us up for future success.

We will miss you, Bonnie! We wish you all the very best as you head into your senior year!
