Come enjoy a wholesome meal surrounded by flowers in our beautiful gardens. Established in 1976. Ansel’s Cafe is located at 403 County Road, Marion, Massachusetts. This historic building is truly one of Marion’s hidden gems, off the beaten path with the oldest part of the house dating back to the 1700’s. The name “Ansel” is a nod to the Ansel S. Gurney House, an extraordinarily special business that was owned and operated by the Gunschel Family from 1976-2020. The cafe is now run by Elizabeth Carter, who worked for the Gunschel Family in the cafe for nine years before their retirement. We invite you to join us for a one of a kind dining experience, take a stroll through our extensive gardens, and visit our same-building-neighbor Strawberry Moon for unique gifts and treats!
