More Than Breakfast at Alpine Bed and Breakfast
Fall in Alpine feels like a deep breath. Evenings are cooler, the sky turns a deeper blue, and the porch is alive with birdsong and the light hum and chirp of hummingbirds at the feeders. This is the perfect time to arrive hungry and stay put. Our Getaway Packages make that first hour easy. Set your bags down, choose your spot, and we will bring you something good to enjoy. It’s the kind of arrival where glasses clink, flavors are savored, and the rest of the day loosens its grip.
You don’t need to go anywhere to feel like your vacation has started.
Most Getaway Packages can be added when you reserve your room online, or you can call us for details and to order.
Find Your Place to Linger
The front porch catches the breeze. Tables and chairs are tucked around the property for slow bites and long conversations. The fire pit adds a gentle glow after sunset. Hummingbirds work the feeders in quick flashes, some migrating through and some that stayed all summer. Deer wander to the trough at dusk. Guests in the Twin Sisters Ensuite have their own private porch and yard, a quiet corner for a glass of wine or an alcohol-removed option and a plate to share. If you prefer, complimentary coffee and hot chocolate are easy to grab for a porch chat, and a cold soda fits right in by the fire pit.
Settle in where the air is cool and the light is soft.
Boards, Bites, and Sips
Each option comes with your choice of a bottle of wine, bubbly, or alcohol-removed wine, ready to pour where you are.
Cheese & Wine
This is a generous board that invites you to slow down. We choose a lineup of 3 cheeses and add house-made touches like wine jelly and our pepita brittle. The brittle brings a sweet & savory crunch with a little maple and pepper, a nice nod to the season. Fruit, chocolate, crackers, nuts, pickles, and more round it out.
Think creamy, sharp, and nutty notes playing off the sweet-tart jelly and that crisp brittle; it’s easy to share and hard to rush. We recommend any of our wines as a pairing to this flavor adventure.
House-Smoked Salmon Dip
We start with Norwegian salmon and smoke it in-house until it is silky and fragrant. Then we fold in dill, capers, lemon, cream cheese, and sour cream. It’s surrounded by kettle chips for scooping. It loves a porch evening or a seat by the fire pit.
The smoke is gentle, the lemon keeps it lively, and the chip crunch pulls it all together. Rosé is the perfect pairing for this decadent plate.
Shrimply Irresistible
Twelve large shrimp are simmered gently with lemons and seasoning, then chilled. They’re served with our housemade cocktail sauce, lemon wedges, and crackers. This gives bright, clean flavors that feel just right when the air turns crisp.
There’s a snap to perfectly chilled shrimp, a citrus lift from the lemon, and a little heat from the sauce that makes the porch feel even fresher. Our Texas white blend wine brings out the individual flavors in this classic dish.
Hummus Platter
Traditional with a twist, our hummus is made with white beans for a smooth, almost whipped texture. Finished with olive oil and a touch of cumin, topped with diced tomato, and served with fresh vegetables and toasted naan. Light enough for a snack, satisfying enough for a small meal.
Toasted naan, crisp vegetables, and that silky dip disappear fast, and the savory tastes will even hold up to our red blend wine.
Celebration Cakes
Some nights deserve a candle. We offer cakes from a local bakery in small, personal sizes, decorated for your occasion and made with your favorite flavors. Birthdays, anniversaries, proposals, or the simple joy of being away together all fit with this Getaway Package.
Bubbly is our recommendation for the quintessential pairing, but save a slice of cake for later, to enjoy with a mug of our complimentary hot chocolate for a little extra-cozy feeling before bed.
Go All Out and Dine In
Friends, Family & Roux
Arriving with a crew or celebrating something special? Keep the evening easy and let the meal come to you. Roux Alpine caters on property with menus that range from Italian and Cajun to Mexican, Indian, Thai, vegetarian, and custom requests. You eat where you are happiest and let the evening stay simple.
Picture a long table surrounded by friends and family, amazing food, and no one watching the clock. This is your special time, so let us take care of you.
Why This Feels Different
You came to rest, not to chase a table. Eating here lets the evening stretch. Keep talking. Watch the hummingbirds and the deer without checking the time. It is a small choice that changes the whole tone of your stay. You don’t have to trade peace for dinner, because at Alpine Bed and Breakfast you can get both.
Breakfast Tomorrow is Handled
Every room includes a made-from-scratch breakfast for two that you choose from a menu. If you need an earlier breakfast for a drive or a hike, ask about a take-along so you leave well fed.
We cook with local eggs and honey, bake our own breads, and make our jams and yogurt in-house. In fact, almost everything we serve is homemade.
Daily Specialties rotate and include dishes like Blueberry Pancakes with real maple syrup, Biscuits with Sausage Gravy, Cinnamon Rolls, Smoked Salmon with a Bagel and all the Fixins, and Ricotta-Filled Crepes with Blueberries & Strawberries.
Always included on the menu are scrambled eggs, avocado toast, fresh fruit, homemade yogurt, baked apples, and more, so no one goes hungry. We even accommodate special dietary needs.
Want to Take Things Even Slower?
Hurkle-Durkle
An old Scots phrase for lingering in bed. This complimentary package sets a slower tone for the day. We bring breakfast to your room, keep the coffee, tea, and hot chocolate flowing, and place a curated stack of books matched to what you like to read. Add any of the Getaway Packages above if you want more grazing without going far. It’s the unhurried morning you promise yourself and rarely take.
