Fireplace Feast

Fireplace Feast at Salem Cross Inn includes:

• Salem Cross Inn's famous cheese spread, a glass of mulled wine or cider to help take the chill off after your horsedrawn wagon or sleigh ride.
• Traditional New England Chowder prepared in an iron cauldron over a crackling fire.
• 1700 Fireplace Prime Rob cooked to perfection using our c. 1700 roasting jack.
• Fresh from the oven homemade rolls and muffins.
• Herbed roasted potatoes and fresh butternut squash.
• New England's Best Apple Pie with a dollop of fresh whipped cream.

Relax by the fire or lend a hand as dinner is prepared for you in colonial style.  Stir the chowder as it bubbles in our cast iron cauldron.  See your prime rib, roasted "to a turn", as the only known authentic Roasting Jack still operating in America rotates slowly over a crackling fire of wild cherry logs.  Beware the brimming bowl of freshly whipped cream - the perfect complement to New England's best apple pie. 

While your dinner is cooking to perfection, enjoy a short horse drawn wagon or sleigh ride through the fields on the Inn's pristine 600 acres.  Shake off the chill with warm mulled wine or cider upon your return.  Browse our extensive collection of colonial and federal period American antiques.

Fireside Feat includes mulling and chowder demonstrations.  Horsedrawn wagon or sleigh ride (weather permitting).

Casual dress is a must for this event.
