The Willows Menus

Dinner

Dinners at the Willows are based on the European model of prix fixe, chef's tasting menu in five courses. We serve dinner Wednesday night through Sunday night, with one seating at 6:30 pm in winter, 7 pm in summer. We open the no-host bar an hour before seating, with a unique cocktail menu. After Labor Day, Wednesday and Thursday nights are for guests of the Inn only. We offer a discounted package for lodging and dinner (The "European Plan"), for all rooms during the winter.

Our menu changes each week, and offers a vegetarian option for the main entree. Our food is organic and local, much of it grown on our own farm. Chef/owner Judy Olsen, and guest chef Vincent Schofield in summer, will delight you with plate after plate of Lummi Island bursts of flavor. Our wine list is a well rounded mix of local, regional, and international labels.

Breakfast

The price you pay for your room includes a full breakfast prepared for you by our expert breakfast chef. The breakfast alone is worth coming for, and the views are incomparable. You'll find you won't want to read the morning paper, but will gaze instead at the ever-interesting marine view just outside. 

Breakfast is served between 9:00 and 9:30 am, with freshly brewed Caffe Vita coffee, and includes our own fresh organic eggs, produce from Nettles Farm, fresh Odwalla orange juice, Hemplers breakfast meats or our house-cured meats, sometimes reefnet salmon or other local seafood.

 

Our dinner menu changes weekly. As the seasons change, so does our cuisine. We belong to Slow Food USA, and to Chefs Collaborative. These two organizations, as are we, are committed to serving local, organic, sustainably produced foods. We carefully source the ingredients we don't grow ourselves, so that just about everything we serve both upstairs and downstairs is organic.
