Hotel Dining

The Harvest Café Restaurant is located within the hotel. They serve a hearty Midwestern breakfast buffet from 6am ’til 10am each day for $9.99. (Rumor has it that kids 12 and under eat for free). Their regular hours are 6am ’til 2pm and they serve supper from 4:30pm ’til 11pm According to the menu posted outside the restaurant, appetizers will run you $7 - $10, entrees run $14 - $24, salads are $9 - $10, desserts will run you $4 - $5. These may be dinner prices, there might be cheaper lunch options available.

The Greenhouse Lounge is the hotel bar. They’re open from 11am ’til 1am Monday through Saturday; 11am ’til 10pm on Sundays. It appears to be quite spacious, we haven’t yet had a chance to check it out. They also serve food (per the website: “Our Greenhouse Lounge also offers a full service menu for lunch, dinner and Happy Hour Specials Monday – Friday”).
