Richard and Nancy Woodworth of INN SPOTS & SPECIAL PLACES say our "breakfast is a culinary event!" It is served each morning between 8 and 9:30 a.m. in our sun-filled dining room. Freshly cut fruit, juices, and freshly baked sweet breads accompany a choice of cooked to order entrees or housemade granola. Blueberry pancakes, Belgian waffles with strawberries, brie and sweet roasted red pepper omelets, and amaretto french toast are favorites among guests. Local ingredients, including Maine maple syrup, are featured, as well as coffee from Maine roasted coffee beans. Food allergies and restrictions are easily accommodated.

An afternoon pastry and hot and cold beverages are provided on a buffet in the breakfast room. Tea service with a freshly brewed pot of tea is prepared individually.

H'ors d'oeuvres are served in the living room or in the garden from 6 to 7 p.m. each evening. Selections highlight Maine seafood, local and imported cheeses, and locally prepared salsas and chutneys. Wines by the glass, local beers, and a full line of fine liquors are available.

Blue Hill village and the surrounding areas are dotted with excellent restaurants. For fine dining, we especially recommend the Arborvine Restaurant and the Wescott Forge, just a block from the inn. Advance reservations are often necessary, and we will be happy to make them for you. The Fish Net is the choice for the best lobster roll around. Check with us for other recommendations for casual fare or fine dining on the Blue Hill Peninsula.
