Our Story

Homestead.  is a restaurant concept bringing hand made pasta & local rustic Italian food to the Pioneer Valley. Our 'New England Italian' cuisine is enhanced using the freshest seasonal local ingredients possible and cooking using simple technique to showcase nature's bounty.

Gather with friends & family around our dinner table. Let us share our deep passion and excitement for fresh local product and great hospitality inspired by our history and region. 

In our family the one place that everyone can truly be themselves, where they can sit back, relax, have a real conversation and worry less about life's daily stressers is with family & friends. We gather, we share, we drink, we cook, we laugh, and we always leave with a full stomach and a smile.

For thousands of years humans have gathered around a fire and a hearth. It has always been the center of the home and so it is the center of our home. At Homestead. we strive to provide a hearth for our neighborhood, our community, our family, and for anyone who needs a cold drink and a hot meal. 

At Homestead. people feel that they have taken a step back, slowed things down no matter how fast their lives are turning. That tranquil feeling of walking into a common place, the warmth and the noise of people enjoying life together. Families meeting, maybe for the first time, maybe for the last, but stopping for a moment to share a meal and a drink and be part of a community in our ever-quickening world.
