One of the many benefits of living in Massachusetts is the rich history that dates back to the day Pilgrims landed in Plymouth! Because Massachusetts is one of the oldest states in the country, we are also home to some of the oldest restaurants.

The Federal in Agawam has a reputation for being a go-to restaurant for special dinners and celebrations - even during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The venerable fine-dining establishment has been able to package that celebratory spirit into its new curbside pickup service.
Take-out from The Federal can be ordered Tuesday-Saturday, 4-8 p.m. The menu includes house favorites like “a bucket of balls” (risotto balls with black truffle butter and snipped chives), chef’s hand-cut steak tartare, roasted rosemary duck breast, wild forest mushroom tagliatelle, fig and prosciutto pizza, and warm Nutella crepes.
The food-to-go option became an excellent choice during this time of social distancing. Reservations are a little harder to score at the new American cuisine restaurant, bar, and steakhouse - especially with competition for seats driving in from Boston, New York, and the Berkshires.
