In this paper, we study Whittaker modules for a Lie algebra of Block type. We define Whittaker modules and under some conditions, obtain a bijective correspondence between the set of isomorphism classes of Whittaker modules over this algebra and the set of ideals of a polynomial ring, parallel to a result from the classical setting and the case of the Virasoro algebra.
