Cantwell’s Tavern

About Cantwell's Tavern

The Cantwell’s Bridge Hotel and Tavern was built by prominent businessman, William Polk, in 1822 and was operated as such for the next 100 years. Be sure and admire the simple, clean, classic Federal lines that denote a sophisticated style rather than that of a “country” inn typical of small towns. If you were a merchant, ship captain or visitor to the busy port town of Cantwell’s Bridge (as Odessa was known) you would have found comfort in the accommodations offered at this establishment. 

Today, the restaurant in Cantwell’s Tavern offers regional fare, craft beer & cocktails in a cozy, historic setting.

While in Odessa, be sure and visit The Historic Odessa Foundation for a memorable walk through history for your whole family.
