A Taste for Every Palate

The reopening of The Grand Lodge also marks the debut of a few new dining options, each offering a uniquely exceptional experience. 

Fawn & Fable

Come dinner time, head to Fawn & Fable — a farm-to-table steakhouse offering classic American fare cooked with the finest locally sourced ingredients. Every dish is cooked to perfection and plated with an artful finesse so the flavors are as exciting as the presentation. Plus, this restaurant is set in a magical space reminiscent of a fairytale castle.

A sophisticated yet playful menu opens with a fable about the resort’s fawn princess, and then offers diners a variety of options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, including a storybook ending with whimsical desserts. The restaurant has partnered with several Pennsylvania purveyors to assist in creating the idyllic dining experience while also using ingredients from the resort’s own greenhouses and gardens whenever possible.

The Circle Bar is a destination to see and to be seen at Nemacolin. Lavish applies to the uniquely elevated decor and finishes, and it applies to the cocktail, mocktail, and bites menus, too.
