UPDATE: The Abbey Kitchen has just unveiled a tantalizing array of catering options at a recent tasting event hosted by the Farmington Regional Chamber of Commerce. Attendees were treated to an impressive selection of dishes, including their legendary cinnamon rolls, as the event highlighted customizable buffet-style menus available for various occasions.
Held at the chamber office, the event showcased the delicious offerings from The Abbey Kitchen, located in Arcadia, just 40 minutes away. Guests received brochures detailing a wide variety of entrees, appetizers, and beverages, emphasizing the restaurant’s commitment to fresh, local ingredients. With options ranging from beef and pork to chicken, fish, and vegetarian pasta, the choices cater to a range of tastes.
“We keep the food hot while we travel, using special containers, and when we put it into the buffet trays, the warmers can keep the food at the best temperature for longer,” shared Garrison, co-owner of The Abbey Kitchen. The catering service not only transports food but can also prepare meals on-site if a kitchen is available, ensuring a seamless dining experience for events.
Known regionally for their generous portions, The Abbey Kitchen’s cinnamon rolls are a standout item. Attendees at the tasting were delighted by their size, which allows for multiple samples. The restaurant prides itself on sourcing ingredients from local farms, enhancing the flavors and community connection.
The Abbey Kitchen is part of the historic Arcadia Academy, which dates back to 1846. This multi-building campus boasts a rich history, having served various purposes over the years, including as a Union hospital during the Civil War and a girls’ school until 1971. The property, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places, features ornate stained-glass windows and can accommodate up to 250 people for events.
Today, the campus hosts a wedding venue, restaurant, bed-and-breakfast, creamery, gift shop, and arcade, all managed by eight family members who are co-owners of the Arcadia Academy. The venue’s rich history combined with its modern offerings makes it a unique destination for events.
