- **Event Description**: The Golden Ball Tavern Museum is now open every Thursday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. with last admission at 3.30 p.m.  FREE and family friendly.  

Our new opening hours coincide with the opening of our new exhibit - “Spies Among Us”.  The exhibit will recall the story of General Gage's spies who visited the Tavern in 1775, explore examples of espionage on both sides, and examine the many ways of spying that were used during the American Revolution. 

Step back in time and learn more about the magnificent and fascinating home of noted Loyalist Isaac Jones and his descendants.  The Golden Ball Tavern was established and operated by prominent Weston resident, Isaac Jones.  The tavern "at the sign of the Golden Ball" operated as an inn from 1770 to 1793 and played a pivotal role in the unfolding of the Revolutionary War when it served as a base for British spies in 1775, was the site of the Weston Tea Party in 1774 and had a brief visit from Paul Revere's men in 1777. The house and Tavern were occupied and carefully preserved for 200 years by six generations 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. Come and explore this unique Revolutionary era tavern and learn of the visit of General Gage's spies, the "other" tea party, and the eventful visit of Paul Revere's men.

Our experienced guides will share stories of our Revolutionary history and 200 years of the Jones family living in this house.  The museum has a vast collection of original artifacts and furnishings on display as well as a large collection of letters, journals, ledgers, newspapers, photographs and more in our archives.

The Tavern is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is entirely self-sustaining.
