Enjoy a Homemade Breakfast at the Historic Smithton Inn
We know that one of the best things about staying in a Lancaster, PA, Bed and Breakfast is the BREAKFAST! A typical breakfast at the Historic Smithton Inn, a Lancaster County Bed and Breakfast, starts with freshly brewed coffee and a collection of teas. Then, a fruit dish is served, which, depending on the season, can be freshly baked apples or peaches or freshly cut locally grown fruits to the extent possible. Fruit is then followed by any of the following: a hot grain such as delicious oatmeal or cheesy grits; homemade muffins or rice pudding; locally sourced yogurt served with homemade granola; or, homemade muffins or breads.
The main meal will be dishes such as the fluffiest homemade pancakes, the best homemade Belgian waffles, Scotch Eggs, blueberry cream cheese French toast casserole, sausage-waffle casserole, homemade quiche, shakshouka, Mexican beef huevos rancheros (always a hit! ), eggs in a nest. Karen’s most popular dish is her eggs with toast, roasted tomatoes, avocado, and bacon, served with her signature arugula salad.

We have been coming here for a few years now. We adore this place. Even when the ownership changed, the quality did not. It is a great location in terms of being in the middle of everything we like to do in the area. I know the physical location may not appeal to some being on an intersection, but one way we avoid the traffic noise is by booking a room that more faces the garden like the red rose room. The owners are very friendly and breakfast is always nice. The rooms are extremely clean and most have nice updates. The old world charm is definitely still there which we prefer. We try to come back every year or at least every other year if we can. We really do love it here!
