Whittemore's Tavern is a 2½-story wood-frame house built around 1724 in the Auburndale village of Newton, Massachusetts, likely constructed by William Robinson II, whose father was among Auburndale's early settlers. Built in Georgian style, the house features asymmetrical window placement on its front facade, suggesting it may have been constructed in stages. It operated as a tavern during the 1760s, when Auburn Street served as a major east–west thoroughfare, though it has since been converted to a private residence. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
