BREAKFAST
Our Gourmet Breakfast
Breakfast—Where & When—The Choice Should Be Yours
We specialize in serving a full homemade breakfast. Using fresh, local, ingredients whenever possible, we offer a variety of dishes and hope to make each meal different and memorable. Life is busy. Often, we don’t take the time for breakfast, let alone a leisurely one. So, because you are here, we want to offer you a breakfast experience. Now, there are many ways to experience breakfast at our Inn, all of them delicious.
- Breakfast in our beautiful dining room or by the windows in the Study or Parlor
- Breakfast on our quaint covered porch (seasonal)
- Breakfast delivered to your room (suite rooms only and always complimentary room service)
- Hot Continental breakfast buffet during the week
- A “Grab & Go” Continental option for when you need to leave early
- No breakfast option for an additional discount
What’s Included
Every breakfast includes juice or smoothie, coffee/tea, fruit (fresh when possible, fruit parfaits, fruit soup), meat, entrée of either an incredible egg dish (e.g., strata, quiche, and egg bake, hearty breakfast casseroles) with a sweet treat (muffin, scone, coffee cake) or fabulous homemade specialty pancakes, thick Belgian waffles, baked French toast with scrumptious toppings, or decadent bread puddings. All uniquely different—all delicious.
Specialty
Our land was once one of the largest apple orchards and berry farms in the region. So, of course, many of our specialties often include our apples, blackberries, black raspberries, and pears, fresh-picked from our land. The menus will change based on what is seasonally available. To tantalize your taste buds, see a few examples on our “sample menu” page!
Special Diets
If you have special dietary restrictions, please let us know when booking your room so we can do the necessary preparation to accommodate your needs. We have catered to heart-healthy, Vegetarian, Gluten & Lactose-free, and beyond, and enjoy learning and experimenting with new and creative dishes.
Beverage Center
Cozy Up with a Warm Drink on a Chilly Morning
Let’s Start With Coffee/Tea/Hot Chocolate/Hot Apple Cider
Awake to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee. Enjoy your coffee in our hand-thrown pottery logo mugs.
Not a coffee drinker? Then grab a hot cup of tea from our assortment or a cup of hot chocolate. Of course, the guest refrigerator in the dining room is always stocked with water or sodas, if that is more to your liking.
The beverage center and Keurig machine are there for your use 24/7. Help yourself! If you want to bring something special (e.g., a special soda, or favorite bottle of wine, for example) there is usually room in the guest refrigerator for your convenience.
