History
The front part of the Sun Tavern was built in 1741. At the end of the nineteenth century it was owned by Lysander Walker who gained dubious fame when his story was published in the October 21, 1928 issue of the Boston Herald in an article titled "Last Duxbury Hermit".
After Walker's death Father Francis Keagan purchased the property for his summer residence. He befriended Mary Hackett and financed her education at Salem State Normal School. In the early 1930's he suggested she take over his house and run it as a restaurant. This small eating place was very successful. It was situated in the heart of Cranberry plantations and was famous for its quaintness, beautiful flowers and delightful meals.
In January of 1987 the restaurant was named The Sun Tavern as it remains today.
In September of 2007 John and Laurie Cowden purchased the Sun Tavern. Both have been in the hospitality industry for over 20 years, most recently operating the Jared Coffin House on Nantucket. Laurie and John operate the business together with their two children Teddi and Parker. They reside in Duxbury.
