Breakfast
At Higgins House Bed and Breakfast, we enjoy preparing good food and pleasing our guests, and we delight in dreaming up new dishes for our guests to try. Your breakfast will be served in our formal dining room.
*
We support a local farmer who raises organic eggs. Often these eggs which come in mulitple colors will have been laid the day before we serve them. You will be amazed by the difference, and you will be able to tell the folks back home that at the Higgins house you actually had "Blue eggs and ham".
*
Our menu varies from day to day, and unless you are with us for an extended stay (which we would certainly welcome!), you will always have something different for breakfast. In addition, if you have a special breakfast dish or dietary restriction, please mention it when you make your reservation, and we will make every effort to accommodate your request.
*
Breakfast is served when you want it, so if you stayed out late the night before, perhaps you took the Rivership Romance Evening Cruise, just let us know, and we will let you "sleep in." If you have a busy day scheduled and want an early breakfast, that is fine as well.
*
