    Not a Farm Stay...

    As a guest at our romantic Pennsylvania bed and breakfast, please feel free to explore our pastures, gardens, and greenhouses. Fashioned from a family farm, Glasbern Inn retains its 19th century character, and offers warm hospitality with luxury accommodations. When you visit our Allentown PA bed and breakfast you will witness sustainable agriculture in action.

    The best of the past and the present meet at Glasbern Inn. The perennial gardens flourish under the care of horticulturist Pam Ruch. On the 100 acres of farm fields that surround the guest accommodations, we raise our own healthful vegetables, as well as sheep, cattle, pigs, ducks, turkeys, broilers, and laying chickens. Herb gardens, greenhouses, and numerous cultivated beds provide flowers, flavorings, and fresh-picked greens, also for use in our restaurant. Everything we do on the farm, from using sustainable grazing practices, to organically growing and gardening, to raising heritage animal breeds, is a testament to our dedication to serving nutritious/natural food while exhibiting a sound land management ethic.

    An integral part of your stay is our hearty farm breakfast - featuring a full continental buffet, plus your choice of daily hot entree options. Served in our lovely dining room, a Glasbern breakfast is the perfect start to any day. Glasbern Inn is considered one of the best bed and breakfasts in PA.

    Dining

    Join us at our Lehigh Valley bed and breakfast for an evening to remember at our on-site restaurant near Allentown, PA. Savor contemporary American cuisine under the vaulted rafters of our one-of-a-kind dining room. The exposed original post and beam barn structure and rock wall create a lofty "country elegant" atmosphere for dinner. Many of the dishes feature pasture-raised meat from Glasbern farm. Our seasonal menus offer the freshest of local meats and produce, and our luscious desserts will tempt you to linger! An Allentown Restaurant like no other!

    The Pub and Patio have been resurrected for more casual dining options. Casual and intimate, our full-service Allentown area bar invites you to relax with a cocktail, beer, or wine before or after your meal. Unlike other pubs in Allentown, ours is located adjacent to the dining room in the barn and was created exclusively for guests of the Inn. Offering a great place to unwind after a day of exploring Allentown, Bethlehem, and the surrounding Lehigh Valley areas, this elegantly rustic bar features an impressive wine list and drinks of all flavors.

    Savor a libation in this unique lounge and enjoy the whimsy of the pub's original oil paintings. Commissioned for Glasbern Inn, the paintings - developed in a folk-art style - depict the many farm animals that stroll across the Inn's rambling acreage.

    The beautiful Lehigh Valley offers so much to do, see and enjoy - it's hard to fit it all in one visit (so we look forward to seeing you again and again!). Our innkeepers are ready and waiting to help you plan activities prior to your stay or upon your arrival. Just call Glasbern Inn at 610-285-4723.
