Specialties
The Velvet restaurant and bar, lives in a beautiful Greek Revival style house, circa 1820, on the grounds of the spectacular Links at Worthington golf club. We are located far away from the maddening crowd; positioned under a night sky filled with stars like you don't see in the valleys below us, with incredible views of the neighboring hills. Worthington is such a beautiful town, but luring people in who need to drive is a challenge. Our solution? Create the most amazing energy we can, and provide handmade fare with the freshest local organic ingredients, cooked in our cold spring water. We have room to grow, but, we can proudly say, we think we are one of the TOP TEN in Western Massachusetts. Expect to take a little time with dinner. Homemade and cooked to order takes longer to prepare than fast food.
And of course, the greens are like Velvet.
History
Established in 2018.
The Golf Course opened in 1904 making it one of the oldest courses in the country. It provides a lovely backdrop for the restaurant and bar. Beyond the golfers, one is able to catch glimpses of wildlife like bear, moose, fox, deer, and Sandhill cranes.
At the restaurant, our goal is to combine the talent of our chefs with the offering of local, organic foods, that support local farms. We serve the best grass-fed burger around, FANTASTIC desserts, and incredible menu choices with seasonal offerings like whole belly fried clams and blueberry pie.
Our bartender Ramona serves cocktails with herbs from her garden, hand squeezed lemons and limes, fresh berries, incredible smoked bourbons and old fashioneds, and she makes delicious mocktails, served in our vintage collection of barware.
The restaurant is housed in a beautiful 1830s Greek Revival farmhouse, sitting on the crest of a hill with magnificent views.
