Looking for a hot hearty breakfast before you set out on the day’s adventure? There are a number of good choices right in town:

The Granary.
If speed is particularly important today, the Granary is one of the best choices. The service at the Granary is excellent, speedy, friendly and attentive without being overly solicitous. Every server we’ve encountered is happy to engage in conversation while keeping your coffee cup full and good at accepting slight modifications to menu items and getting it right.
The food at the Granary is consistent, good quality with a few items that I consider exceptional: If you like corned beef hash – a personal favorite of mine – it’s great here. Crispy and delicious. If you’ve never tried corned beef hash, give it a go! It’s really quite good. The kids love the carmel apple pancakes.
The Granary serves all the basics at a very reasonable price. They also serve lunch and have daily specials – it’s generally worth going with the special – it’s always pretty good and sometimes fantastic.

The Outdoorsman.
If you have a bit more time to linger over breakfast, the Outdoorsman is a super choice. First of all, they have their own chickens and serve their own eggs – fresh, free range and it’s noticeable in how delicious the omelets are. Also, they grow produce and buy locally as much as possible, so you can feel really good about supporting the local economy and eating hormone free food. If you’ve got special dietary needs, it’s good to know that the owner/chef at the outdoorsman personally knows the ins and outs of serving a gluten free menu. (noted on their menu).
All of the care put into the menu considerations is clearly reflected in the quality of the Outdoorsman’s food. In addition to breakfast staples – outstanding bacon, for example – try the homemade cinnamon rolls. They are truly exceptional.
The outdoorsman also serves lunch and dinner. I’ve seen excellent reviews, but have not yet tried those meals there. More to come soon.

The Bakery.
Just…yum. I can’t even tell you. Everything here is good. The coffee is really good. The donuts and pastries are really good. First thing first morning here run down as early as possible and get a loaf of English muffin bread that you will toast all week (some of us have to go the second day and get two more loaves when the family eats the first one all in the first day – hide the 3rd loaf, you’re going to have to ration it out). They have other bread that other people rave about, but we just keep buying and eating that one b/c it’s too good not to. Also pies….OMG the pies – all extraordinary – if you like rhubarb at all, this is one of the best. Many have to be ordered in advance. Call ahead of your trip and do it, especially if you’re coming up for the holidays.
