Celebrating over 250 years of elegance and congenial tradition, the Restaurant at Meander  invites our guests on a truly historic experience.

The Experience: Since 1766, the forefathers of America dined here, warmed by our fire and illuminated by candlelight. Today we strive to keep that tradition alive by providing a welcoming atmosphere and serving dishes inspired by the local area and our colonial past.
