Gourmet Breakfast at our
Bed and Breakfast in New Hampshire

Before breakfast, we offer our guests an early coffee and tea service for early risers to enjoy in front of the fireplace in our living room or take back to their guest rooms.

Later in the Dining Room, a full gourmet breakfast is served beginning with either home-baked Pumpkin-Walnut, Banana-Coconut, or Rhubarb-Honey Ginger breads. Other starters may be Apricot-Orange or Raisin Scones, Buttonwood Donut Muffins, Maple Cinnamon Rolls, Blueberry-Walnut Crumb Coffee Cake, warm Fruit Crisp with Granola topping, or a cool fresh Fruit Salad with Raspberry Sauce topping.

Savory entrees may include a Mushroom-Sausage and Cheddar Cheese Strata, Sun-Dried Tomato with Mozzarella and Parmesan Cheeses Baked Omelet, Eggs Benedict with Canadian Bacon and Spinach, or Scrambled Eggs with Goat Cheese and Chives with Roasted Red Bliss Rosemary Potatoes on the side.

Sweet entrees may either be a Baked French Toast Casserole with Pecan and Wild Maine Blueberry Topping, “lighter than air” Yeasted Belgian Waffles, or Banana-Pecan, Pumpkin, Apple, or Buttermilk Lemon-Scented Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce or our award-winning NH maple syrup. We also serve either thick-sliced bacon or sausage on the side.

All of our foods are prepared fresh with local New Hampshire products and we serve award-winning maple syrup purchased from Fullers Sugarhouse in Lancaster, NH. Note that most entrees can be modified for gluten-free or vegetarian diets.

A variety of English teas, hot chocolate (in colder months), or lemonade or iced tea (in warmer months) are served each late afternoon in our Dining Room. You will also find a homemade baked treat from Paula’s kitchen of either “killer” Chocolate Brownies, Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, Peanut Butter Sandwiches, Coconut Macaroons, Mini Orange Chocolate Chunk Cakes, Carrot Cake Bars with Cream Cheese Icing, Cream Puffs, or Fruited Pistachio Balls.

Guests can enjoy their refreshments in either our spacious but cozy Living Room or Mt. Surprise Room warmed by the fireplaces when it’s cold outside. On warmer days, guests like to relax in one of the rockers on the front porch watching the hummingbirds, or sit in an Adirondack chair near the flower gardens taking in our mountain views listening to the birds sing.
