While our menu tastes great, it’s also important that our food meets the unique nutritional needs of our residents. Our snack and hydration bar features a variety of healthy and delicious options for our residents to choose from to stay satisfied and hydrated throughout the day. In addition, we also have on our team a Dietitian that works with our residents, our families, and our culinary team to see to it that dietary needs are met.

It’s not just about the food… but also the environment.
We also know a great dining experience isn’t just about the food, but also the environment. Our culinary team works in an open kitchen featuring a wide serving window so that residents can see and smell the food being prepared and they can interact with the team allowing open communication between our residents and chefs. Our spacious dining room features plenty of windows to allow in natural sunlight and the side doors lead residents off to our outdoor patio areas. At the front of our dining room is a warm and cozy fireplace bringing in a sense of comfort on those sometimes long, snowy days in New England. Our small tables allow our staff to provide the necessary assistance during meals but also a sense of closeness and belonging between our residents so they can socialize with old friends and make new ones. Whether you talk to our dedicated culinary team, our Dietitian, our nursing staff, or our caregivers, we are committed to ensuring that the resident feels right at home and is completely satisfied with our dining program!
