A Local Favorite since 1973!

It was 1973 when Louise Tambascio opened the doors to "My Place Luncheonette" in one of the store fronts in the plaza that pre-dated what is now the "Big Y" shopping plaza in Newtown, Connecticut and today it is still run by the Tambascio family including brothers Mark and John Tambascio. Since then, serving great food, with great service at reasonable prices has been our mantra at My Place Restaurant.

As you enter through the main side entrance, you can access our convenient takeout counter. Go straight to be seated in the main dining room or through a door on your right to enter Mark's Tap Room. Alternatively, you can go through the front patio door located directly on Queen Street and enter the tap room immediately to your right or access our private dining area on your left.

The cream and black décor inside My Place creates a warm atmosphere where diners can choose between table seating and booths. Arched windows with Italia-style louvers for privacy look into the back room of the restaurant where private parties of up to 45 can be hosted.  Our tap room is a local's favorite for catching up with friends over a drink or getting a quick bite in a casual and friendly atmosphere. During the warm months, our patio is a bustling hot spot which offers 40 additional seats to dine al fresco as you watch your Newtown neighbors driving along Queen Street.

From families to individual diners, or business meetings to special gatherings, My Place Restaurant and Bar is a great place for anyone to enjoy a delicious meal in a welcoming atmosphere.
