Castle On The Delaware
139 Stockton Ave, Walton, NY 13856, USA- Spaces for 620 Guests
- 1 Historic Space
Castle on the Delaware occupies a restored 1896 Armory in Walton, New York — a building designed by Isaac Perry, the principal architect of the New York State Capitol. Originally constructed to house the Thirty-Third Separate Company, the Armory stood for more than a century before reopening as Castle on the Delaware in November 2013. Chef and owner Mustafa Sav, a native of Istanbul trained at the Klessheim International Hotel and Restaurant Management School in Salzburg, transformed the historic structure into a restaurant and event destination. His vision — rooted in both his culinary background and a long personal connection to Walton — brought new life to one of the region's most architecturally significant buildings. The main floor accommodates up to 620 guests and is available for private events including weddings, conferences, proms, and celebrations of all kinds. Full catering and liquor service are provided in-house, and parking is available on the grounds and nearby.
