About us
The rich history of Mason’s Marketplace began in 1866
Built in 1866, the Talmadge House was a stagecoach stop between Port Jervis and Goshen with a tavern downstairs and rooms for rent upstairs. When the Erie Railroad was built it became the Wawayanda Inn. Workers lived in the inn, renting blocks of rooms for themselves and their visitors.
Mason’s Store opened in 1917
John Mason purchased the building and started Mason’s Store with his wife Margaret in 1917.
In 1941, Mike & Ernestine Mason took over the store. People from all around would make the trip to Mason’s Store to get the Suburban edition of the Sunday Daily News. There would be hundreds of people buying their papers on Sundays along with penny candies from the big oak candy case.
Mason’s General Store closed in October 2004
After 87 years of being a pillar in the local community creating memories, Mason’s Store closed its doors in October of 2004.
Grand Opening: Mason’s Marketplace opened in June 2015
The Wright family purchased the building in 2013 with a vision to restore this landmark and revive its local community experience. Two-years of thoughtful renovations across all three floors to restore its original glory. The tables & bars in the Taproom were made of 150 year old pine trees that needed to be removed from the property.
In June of 2015, Mason's Marketplace opened as a restaurant and deli with a general store serving homemade comfort food and selling local products. We serve breakfast, lunch, dinner, & Sunday brunch. Dine-in or order online for pick up and delivery. We also offer catering and unique event spaces throughout the building and property to host special events such as rehearsal dinners, birthday parties, baby showers, wedding showers, retirement parties, and meet ups.
