Centerboard guests awaken each morning to the tantalizing aroma of brewed coffee. Innkeeper Lyn Francis prepares freshly baked breads and granola to provide a healthful Continental breakfast buffet served in our high-ceilinged, light-filled dining room each morning from around 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM. Adjust your watch to Nantucket island time and linger over your breakfast before setting out to explore the island. Our Nantucket Bed and Breakfast selections vary from day to day and may include:

By town law, 43 of 44 bed and breakfast inns in Nantucket Town can only put out a Continental breakfast; i.e., no meat and potatos.  Being law abiding citizens, we strive to stand out from the local lodging crowd by ensuring that as many items as possible are home-made from scratch using as many locally grown, organic ingredients as possible. This means fresh eggs from free-range chickens on the Centerboard owner's Nantucket farm, hand-squeezed oranges for the freshest, sweetest and pulpiest juice, herbs from our garden, locally harvested fresh cranberries for the baked goods and for stiffing into my signature granola . By summer's onset we will be able to go out to nearby public moors and pasture lands and hand-pick great quantities of blackberries, blueberries, strawberries and raspberries which we present whole on the fruit platters and use in baking breads and cakes and mixed fruit cobblers.

The fresh, creative, healthful, savory, spa-like breakfast at the Centerboard is one very happy meal, one that will put you on track for another unforgettable day on Nantucket.
