Renaissance Supper Club
Note that due to our popular Christmas dining program the regular menu at Renaissance Supper Club will be suspended until further notice. The Supper Club is located in the former church sanctuary dating from 1837. It is a spectacular setting combining historic charm with modern elegance. The Backyard is a cozy, quiet patio located off of the main street in a tree-lined natural setting.
Reserve your group or table for our Christmas Candlelight Dining beginning in late November. We are closed Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Visit this link for details. Christmas at Renaissance
