Item Description

"Worth a Special Journey" - A Gift Certificate for Two for Dinner at World-Renowned The Inn at Little Washington

Throughout its long and colorful history, The Inn at Little Washington has provided a fairytale setting for countless weddings, anniversaries, engagements, retirements, birthdays, and corporate events. 

Dining at The Inn at Little Washington has been likened to performance art with the guest always playing the starring role. The experience evokes a romantic dinner party in a private country house from another era. Whimsical touches such as a rolling cow (named Faira) displaying cheeses invite guests to relax, be themselves, and have fun.

In 1978, Patrick opened The Inn at Little Washington in a former garage in the tiny town of Washington, VA. Patrick and The Inn have gone on to enjoy worldwide recognition and regularly host celebrities, politicians, and culinary enthusiasts. He has been referred to as "the Pope of American Cuisine" and in 2019, won the Lifetime Achievement award from the James Beard Foundation. In November of the same year, he received the National Humanities Medal from the President of the United States.

More on Chef's Patrick O'Connell

Patrick O’Connell’s inspired American cuisine draws admirers from around the world.Patrick’s approach to cooking, while paying homage to the lawmakers of Classical French Cuisine, reflects a belief in American cuisine today-- healthy, eclectic, imaginative, unrestricted by ethnic boundaries and always growing. Much of the produce and herbs used in the restaurant is raised on a small farm on our campus by our Farmer in Residence, Joneve Murphy. Throughout the last four decades, The Inn has established a network of local farmers and suppliers whose products represent the best in our region. In 2021, Michelin awarded The Inn a Green Star for sustainability.
