Our Chef uses many locally produced ingredients in the preparation of this contemporary menu with daily special creations.

Ambiance is casual elegance. Located within 30 minutes of the Buffalo/Niagara Airport and steps away from local ski resorts.

Roycroft Inn has been around since the early 1900's and nicely restored. However the Sunday Brunch was nothing special. The salad selection was very limited and there was only one set of serving tongs in most areas for 3-4 dishes. The room we were located in was overcrowded with tables and had two wedding parties of 12 which resulted in... More

If you have an interest in the Arts and Crafts movement in American design history, then you will be in your glory at the Roycroft Inn. Even if you know nothing about it, the architecture and furnishings will be a treat - right down to the heavy wooden front door. Once you get to the menu, you won't be disappointed... More

White linen table cloths, jazz music fine china etc. The food is consistently good and acceptable but it's never been great. They don't really have a signature dish and... More

Had a delicious lunch salad. I'm a fan of Arts and Crafts, so this Inn is amazing to me. Ate with one of the officers of the non profit that is restoring the little district where this is located. Setting, service and food were great. More
