The White Dog Inn

One of the highlights of our time in Mathews was the White Dog Inn. Calling itself a bisto/b&b/coffee house is a little misleading... What it is, is fabulous!
The ambiance is impeccable!
(ship chandelier in main dining room)
Perhaps a little frivilous...
Zebra carpet on stairs? To die for!
Let's continue up, shall we? These are the upstairs rooms!
The sitting room, an open shared area which can be used by either the King or Queen room. I love the quail painting!
The beautiful King room!
The charming and airy Queen room....
...complete with stairs to ascend to your comfortable bed!
And now a quick trip downstairs to the dining room...
Possibly the best chicken salad EVAH! I heard wonderful things about the fried green tomatoes but did not partake. There are no pictures of the macaroni and cheese (with ham shreadies) although I have dreamed about it twice since I came home. It was gone so fast, there was no time to get a picture... There is also no photographic evidence of the bananas foster or the chocolate bread pudding. Again, these dishes were with us for mere moments before they ceased to be!
I sincerely hope I make it back to Mathews, Virginia. This would be one of my first stops! Everything about the White Dog is so well done. They had a group of 40 seated before us for lunch and the service continued to be smooth and effortless, the food was still perfectly done, and the waiter (Hi Eric!) was still graceful and humorous with our energetic group of bloggers!
Thanks White Dog Inn, for such a lovely experience!
AG out!

Oooh, it looks fabulous! I love the stairs! Glad you had such a wonderful time there. And such wonderful food, too!
THE best food I had in Mathews, aside from the homemade goodies, I see I stuck those capers in as you were snapping .. sorry ...
Absolutely divine. I'm dragging my husband back there for our anniversary in October - hope to stay in one of those lovely rooms!
Just another excellent example of Mathews County awesomeness!!! I miss Eric. And those Bloody Mary's....
That sounds like a wonderful place to visit.
I am so staying there at some point. Brian and I are thinking of October...
am ready to book a weekend here...looks divine, darling!
What a gorgeous place... exactly as I imagined it would be! Maybe someday.
Loved that place. Excellent photos here, my friend!
