L.M. Townsend Bar Services at Templeton Hall

Templeton Hall is a historic event space in the middle of Cooperstown, built as a church in 1831. It is home to L.M. Townsend Bar Service, which handles the bar for gatherings in the hall, and it sits around the corner from the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

The hall seats up to 110 guests, or about 150 for a mix of standing and seated guests, and it can be set up with chairs for a wedding ceremony, presentation or performance. Most Cooperstown lodging is within walking distance, the trolley stop is close, and the building is accessible.
