We hope breakfast will be one of the best memories you take with you. We take pride in featuring local products in season, fresh produce from our own gardens, home baked breads and muffins. House favorites include bread pudding with amaretto sauce, baked apple pancakes or Yankee scramble. One of the special pleasures of Cape Cod in season is LOBSTER. Since we trap our own, our lobster is plentiful and the freshest you will ever taste! The House Special is Lobster Soufflé but you may also find lobster omelet, lobster quiche or lobster crepes on the breakfast menu.
