A home decor store is hardly the place you'd expect to find a superlative dining experience, but ABC Kitchen (located within ABC Carpet & Home) delivers. This venture between the home decor giant and celebrated chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten paid off handsomely when it was voted "Best New Restaurant of 2011" by the James Beard Foundation. ABC Kitchen's delicious American fare is more than worthy of its already fantastic reputation. The restaurant's brunch, lunch, and dinner menus are full of well-crafted preparations that highlight the best in healthy, local, and organic ingredients. The restaurant strives to be green and sustainable in everything they do, right down to the bread baskets, which are hand-crafted by the Mapuche people of Peru. Helped handsomely by the store's stunning collection, the restaurant's interiors are extremely elegant and provide a comfortable space to enjoy your meal.

We do healthy and we do hearty with an eye on local and seasonal when we can. The idea has always been to serve homestyle simple, delicious and wholesome food that warms your heart.
Labeled a hidden gem by all those who have visited it, Cafe Madeline is gradually establishing itself as a crowd favorite.

A tin and gold painted ceiling and a full view of the open kitchen is what greets you at The Little Owl. The cuisine is a mix of classical American and Mediterranean. The contemporary menu comprises of dishes made with seasonal ingredients of the freshest quality, which is always a good sign. Saying that The Little Owl pays attention to detail is an understatement. First timers and regulars will agree, the restaurant goes to great lengths to accommodate its patrons, whether it means customizing a dish which is not on the menu, remembering someone's favorite dish or even getting a particular bottle of wine from elsewhere. The pork chop is a special favorite at The Little Owl, as are the crispy soft-shell crab and the duck confit.
We introduced Classic British Food and kept the Belgian favorites. Our beef Stew is now cooked in dark Scottish Stout with brussel sprouts, carrots and prunes with a portion of chips. The creamy Chicken Stew is in a puff pastry with pearl onions, smoked bacon and mushrooms and comes with fries and the ever popular Moules Frites- 2lbs of mussels in a white wine sauce, creamy beer or ratatouille. Beer battered fish with tartare sauce and chips doused in malt vinegar was a first on our menu. A mini Steak and Kidney Pie made by our friends at Meyer's of Keswich, served with homemade baked beans and seasonal mixed greens. They also make the sausage for our Bangers and mash, three pork sausages with our mash of the day. Our Classic English Breakfast- 2 fried eggs, Meyer's breakfast sausage, smoked bacon, fried mushrooms and tomato and homemade baked beans. Call For Daily Specials!
