Salem Cross Inn  West Brookfield MA

Our Friends at the Salem Cross Inn are celebrating their

50 Year Anniversary

June 19, 1961 – 2011

Fifty years!!!  The Salem Cross Inn, our family run restaurant, has been in business for 50 years and we are thrilled!  We have become known as the place to have a classic New England experience and we are famous for cooking with farm fresh ingredients, Fireplace Feasts, Historic Drover’s Roasts and our warm New England hospitality.  Over the years, we have hosted such names as Mick Jagger, Julia Child, Ted Kennedy, Mickey Mantle, Joan Rivers, Charles Lindbergh and even Sesame Street’s “Big Bird,” to name a few.  However, for us, our fondest memories are of the families that we have been lucky enough to watch grow from Family Sunday dinners, First Communions, high school and college graduations, weddings and life celebrations.  Now after 50 years, we look back with fondness on this extended family and realize that we are blessed to have been a part of their life’s tapestry.  We are proud to have reached this milestone in honor of our dad, Henry, Salem and our Uncle Dick, and look forward to keeping their vision alive by carrying on their legacy of family and traditional New England hospitality.  So, take a ride to the country, join in the celebration, and raise a glass to the next 50 years!
