From early morning practices to weekend games, local coaches put an incredible amount of time into our kids all season long. When the team chips in for an end-of-season thank you, skip another big-box sporting goods gift card or engraved clipboard.
A Temperance House gift card gives them exactly what they actually want after a long schedule: a well-earned dinner and a cold drink at the tavern away from the fields.
Plus, if you're the one hosting the team's end of the season party this year, let us handle the cooking. We can put together to-go catering trays of wings, sliders, and all your favorites so you can actually sit back and enjoy the celebration.
Drop by the tavern or call us at 215-944-8050 to grab a gift card or lock in your party trays today!

Tables fill up early for trivia nights—give us a call at 215-944-8050 if you want to save a spot for your team.

Mother's Day is this Sunday!
Call for brunch reservations 215-944-8050.
04/29/2026
Mother's Day brunch is May 10th, 10AM to 1PM. $42 for adults, $21 for kids. The menu's got hand carved prime rib, salmon with bruschetta, chicken piccata, made-to-order eggs Benedict and omelettes, and enough on the dessert table to justify skipping the entrée entirely. We've got a few reservations left, so if you're planning to bring the family to the old building on Court Street, now's the time to call. What's everyone doing for Mother's Day this year, going out, cooking at home, or still figuring it out?
04/28/2026
The omelette station is the main event for a reason. You tell us what goes in, we make it on the fly. We’re also doing made-to-order Eggs Benedict and a full spread of chocolate chip pancakes for the kids.
Brunch runs 10 AM to 1 PM on the 10th. If you want a specific table or have a larger group, it’s a lot easier to fit you in if you let us know this week. Link in bio (or our website) to grab a spot.

If you've had a Sunday morning here before you already know it's worth it, and if you haven't, this is a pretty good one to start with. Tables fill up faster than people think so give us a call if you're planning on coming. Do you usually do Mother's Day as a big family thing or keep it small?

Mother's Day brunch is happening right here at The Temperance House on May 10th, 10AM to 1PM. The main dining room is a genuinely lovely spot for it, stone fireplace and all, and this is the kind of meal that feels like a real occasion without anyone having to cook. Adults $42, children $21. Reservations are going fast and we'd hate for you to miss it. Who are you bringing this year, and do they know they're already getting the best gift?

Mike Donovan is playing tonight and if you haven't seen him yet, this is a good one to start with. Acoustic, no fuss, the kind of music that makes you forget you were only planning to stay for one drink. We're at 5 South State Street in Newtown, the bar fills up on Saturday nights, and the old building sounds better with live music in it. Call ahead if you want a table. 7PM.
