Start your day in the Finger Lakes the right way with a homemade complimentary breakfast. Our menu changes daily and with the seasons, but you can always count on a mix of sweet and savory favorites. We’re also happy to accommodate dietary needs whenever possible; however, advance notice is appreciated.
Wake Up to Seneca Lake
Get up and watch the sunrise with Marcus on our wrap around porch and sip locally roasted coffee with the Wilde Awake blend made just for Idlwilde. Coffee service starts at 6:00am and our locally sourced home cooked meals are served from 8:00am – 9:00am.
Grab a secluded table in our library, puzzle nook, or living room, or sit at your own table in our Victorian dining room. During summer months and into fall most guests enjoy breakfast outside basking in the sun as it rises over Seneca Lake and shines on Elin’s limelight hydrangeas. If you need a little shade, seating in the side yard under the trees is also available.

Locally Sourced Breakfast
Our hearty breakfast is designed to give you the nourishment you need to conquer one of the many hiking paths close by or to line your stomach before hitting the wine trail. Our meals consist of eggs and sausage or bacon from a local ranch with 100% pasture raised pigs. We also serve seasonal fruits and vegetables from many of the nearby family farms.
Some of our signature items include:
- Blueberry and peach breakfast bread pudding
- Vegetable of the season quiche
- Strawberries and cream stuffed French toast
- Breakfast paninis and cheesy potatoes
