The Best Part of Waking Up
When you stay with us, your morning begins with a homemade brunch-style breakfast. Each day features a rotating hot dish, a seasonal side, fresh fruit, juice, yogurt, homemade granola, and a sweet treat, along with plenty of coffee, tea, cocoa, and Ovaltine (yes, really!) to help start your day.
Rather than serving the same breakfast every morning, we let the seasons and a little kitchen inspiration guide the menu. One day might feature cherry clafoutis and rosemary-roasted nuts; another could bring smoked salmon Benedict, a savory breakfast braid, or homemade breakfast sandwiches. It’s a more personal approach to breakfast, and one of our favorite parts of hosting.
Breakfast is served upstairs in the dining room at 8:30 a.m. Monday through Saturday and 9:00 a.m. on Sundays. If you’re our only guests or have special plans, we’re often able to adjust the timing – just let us know in advance.
For early risers, help-yourself options including fresh fruit, granola, baked goods, coffee, tea, and other beverages are available about 30 minutes before breakfast is served.
Breakfast In-Room
We’d love for you to join us upstairs in the dining room, but if you prefer a slower, more private start to your day, we’re happy to deliver a breakfast basket right to your room.
Just let us know your preference and timing in advance, and we’ll make sure your morning begins exactly the way you like it.
Perfect for early departures, quiet mornings, or simply staying in your pajamas a little longer.
