Dine with Us

If you've read any of our guest reviews, you might have noticed one common thread through most of them - everyone loves the way we do breakfast. We've taken a unique and flexible approach in what we do, and our guests appreciate that. First, we don't limit you to a specific seating time. Freshly-brewed coffee is served at 7:30am (earlier on request) and you can come down and have a full hot breakfast anytime between 8 and 10:00am. In summer months, we include a self-serve Continental buffet with whole fresh fruit, juices, yogurts, homemade granola with accompaniments, and a toaster for your choice from our big bread basket, along with butter and fruit preserves.

When you enter our Dining Room you'll hear a friendly Good Morning! from Linda, and she'll take your breakfast order. Our menu is simple: what do you feel like having this morning? Blueberry pancakes? A Western Omelet? Maybe an omelet with spinach, mushroom and goat cheese? Feta or Swiss cheese instead? How about a couple of breakfast sandwiches to enjoy on the beach? Or maybe you feel like royalty and want a royal breakfast. Eggs Benedict or Eggs Florentine? Sweet or Savory Crepes? How about a nice crisp waffle with fresh strawberries on top?

Breakfast

Our ingredients are always fresh, and every breakfast is made to order and to your unique taste. We can easily accommodate any special dietary needs, and we do it with a smile. Choose from a variety of side dishes too, like bacon, sausage, ham, corned beef hash, pork roll/Taylor ham and homefries. We always have a wide selection of cheeses and fresh vegetables to choose from, and every breakfast plate is served with a beautiful selection of sliced fresh fruit to enhance your meal. And since we don't require specific seating times, you'll never be rushed - take as much time as you like.

Dine All Day

Beyond breakfast, we offer a Porch Snack menu so you can enjoy some freshly-made munchies while you relax in our rockers and catch the ocean breezes. Choose from simple snacks like cheese and crackers, hummus with pita chips, sliced fresh fruit, and more.

In the evening, we offer a romantic Dinner for Two menu, which you can savor by candlelight on the porch or in the dining room. When you're so comfortable that you just don't feel like going anywhere, we're here for you!
