Want to feel like you've traveled abroad without having to get on a plane? Dine here! Chef Dayne Smith has cooked for people around the world, and once owned a second restaurant in Puerto Rico. We dare say his cuisine rivals that of the Inn at Little Washington, but at $115 per person his is much more affordable. The atmosphere of this historic setting - a former Wells Fargo stagecoach stop -- is welcoming and transformative. You can expect to feel as though you've gone back in time and landed in a European country estate. The food and the views will keep you enraptured when you visit this 45 acre gem of a locale. Be sure to have a cocktail or aperitif by the large field stone fireplace. Trust us, there is no better place to leave your cares behind and celebrate life! Fine dining at its finest!

Casual dining and drinks

Lunch and dinner options nearby. We are fortunate in Rappahannock County to have excellent restaurants - many of which have (or have had) the influence of the Inn at Little Washington's former employees! Not your average fare here, no matter where you eat. Bon Appetit!
Delicious food (upscale British pub fare), outside seating, nice bar area, and friendly staff. Reservations suggested on weekends.

Great place for sandwiches and other light fare. Also offering to-go meals you can pop in the microwave. Food from this little gem is above average, and the staff is super friendly. Outside picnic tables by the river. Approximately 8 miles from your suite -- not far from the entrance to Shenandoah National Park. Pick up some snacks or a picnic lunch before you hike!

A local favorite with lattes, cappucinos, teas, wine, serving breakfast and lunch. One of the BEST coffee shop/cafes you will ever experience. Great sandwiches or snacks for your hike and sundry local offerings to choose from. The wine by the bottle selection here is outstanding, and they now offer decadent gelato. Oh, and did we mention it is located in the coolest place in Rappahannock? Main Street, Sperryville. Before and After is A MUST!

Great wine, great views, and SUPER staff serve to create a cozy and welcoming winery located on one of the more scenic roads in the County. Be sure to say 'Hello' to John, the owner, who often takes a break from his goat/cattle farm to chat with his winery customers. And do try to sit on the deck, it offers a serene vista including a large pond and Reality Mountain in the distance. Throw all of your worries in the pond, and offer up your plans and dreams to the mountain 'Gods' while relaxing in this unforgettable venue!
