Mushrooms are the heart of what we do at the Joel Palmer House. We have always endeavored to obtain seasonal and local ingredients and we use many locally produced greens, herbs, and vegetables, some of which come from our own culinary garden. We are frequently inspired by ingredients found in the cuisines of France, China, Thailand, Poland and India, so we call our cooking "freestyle." Our dishes pair well the celebrated wines of Oregon, especially Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay. Our extensive, Oregon-focused wine list has been awarded the Best of Award of Excellence from Wine Spectator. Of special note, The Joel Palmer House ranks as one of Oregon's finest historic homes and is on the National Register of Historic Places and the Oregon Historic Register. Built in 1857, the house is Dayton's oldest standing structure. When weather permits, guests can enjoy their dinner on our outdoor patio, soaking in the last rays of sunshine in the heart of Oregon Wine Country.

We had breakfast/brunch. It was such a nice experience. Our server was Whitney, and she did an excellent job making sure we knew what the featured items were, tending to our table and just being really personable. We tried the French toast bites- oh my! Those are a new favorite. We shared the steak/potatoes/eggs meal, and the crab benedict. The steak was cooked just right, and there was plentiful, delicious crab in the benedict. The crab really stood out as a highlight of our meal because it was so fresh-tasting and had a good bite to it. It was a nice ambiance, with a view of the foothills, and we left happy and content.
