Dining at The White Oak Inn will become one of the most treasured memories of your visit.
An overnight stay at the inn always includes one of our hearty country breakfasts. They are generous in portion, made from farm-fresh eggs and local meats. The smell of muffins or scones baking wafts up the staircase every morning. Every day features a different egg dish, accompanied by Amish-style peppered bacon or sausage. It may be one of our stuffed French Toasts, an Artichoke Tomato Strata, eggs scrambled with herbs from our garden or Belgian waffles with Bananas Foster. Fresh fruit, our specialty roast coffee and hot teas accompany all our breakfasts. For light eaters we always offer a selection of hot and cold cereals.
Whether it's to celebrate a special event such as an anniversary or birthday, a gathering of friends or just a time to relax and unwind, you don't want to miss dinner at the inn. Linen tablecloths, fresh flowers and candles set the mood. The service is relaxed and unhurried. Menus are planned daily to take advantage of the finest produce, meat and fish available. Fresh herbs and vegetables from the inn garden are used in season. All our soups, salad dressings and desserts are made right here at the inn, many from treasured family recipes.
We are happy to accommodate special dietary requests, such as for vegetarian, low fat or low sugar meals.
Dinner prices are for a complete three or four course meal including non-alcoholic beverages and cost $30 - $35 a person.
ROMANTIC DINNER BASKETS Picture a wicker basket, linen tablecloth and napkins, real china, silverware and glassware. Now picture it filled with a generous amount of food, including hot main course. It's perfect for two lovers who just want to be alone together, or a great solution for those who may not be sure whether they'll arrive in time for dinner in the dining room. Baskets include a hot crusty loaf, bottle of sparkling cider or juice, fruit and cheese plate, hot entree such as Roast Cornish Game Hens or triple cheese baked pasta, salad, dessert, cookies and chocolate. You're welcome to enjoy your basket in your room or cottage, anywhere in the inn or on one of our porches or decks. Dinner baskets cost $75.
WINE For your convenience, we can arrange to have a selection of special California wines delivered to the inn for you to enjoy during your stay. These are unique wines from limited-production boutique wineries. We'll have them chilled and waiting for your arrival.

The cost is approximately $65 including shipping and tax for a selection of three bottles.
