I had the Belgian Waffle sprinkled with powdered sugar. It was very yummy. My husband had biscuits, bacon, and eggs. The biscuits looked more like rolls than biscuits but were amazing. We both agreed we would eat here again. The servers, host and other workers throughout the house were very friendly and helpful. We had two different people offer to... more

Walked quite a ways to find this place. Left our name with a nice young man, who patiently allowed us to ck in several times. Long wait for a table. Walked through the house and gift shop. Really only a couple of things to see in the house. Grounds are lovely, good history. Started out with a nice table in... more

Our travelling companions who had not appreciated some of my SA recomendations, really enjoyed this place. We had breakfast and everything was excellent. We filled up on the giant rolls. Biscuits and pancakes were both great as were the breakfast tacos. We didn't eat again til evening. My only complaint was that it was so busy we were seated outside... more

The Guenther House had been recommended to me by friends and my husband and I were delighted we took their suggestion to stop in for breakfast. The service was wonderful; friendly, accurate and prompt. My husband had Guenther's Favorite Breakfast Platter ($8.75) and I had the Breakfast Tacos ($6.75). The food was amazing - the biggest, most fluffy biscuits we've... more

Our family voted that they had the best bacon ever! The grounds and setting are very nice. We then walked back along thr Riverwalk - a scenic and peaceful area of the... more

I had been to Guenther House many years ago...and wondered if it was still as good as my memories had recalled. After visiting it for breakfast again recently for breakfast, I can confirm it is just as good as ever! It's a unique setting (if you're walking from downtown consider taking King James street to view beautiful homes on the... more

Guenther is a great place to have breakfast. It is next to the Guenther Mill and museum house, near the riverwalk (but not on it). You may choose to sit inside or outside. We chose outside because in early November, the weather was perfect! At first, I was surprised to see only one egg dish listed on the menu and... more
