Catering Director/Assistant Restaurant Manager (ARM)

Nestled on a hilltop overlooking The Stables, pastures, and forests, SpringHouse treats guests to local cuisine served in rustic, casual elegance. The interior is composed of rough-hewn beams, hand-forged ironwork, and a magnificent open kitchen complete with a wood-fired oven and grill. In the heart of the main dining room is a grand functioning fireplace.

The covered patio dining area is surrounded by stone and large shutters that open to the pastoral view. The upstairs loft dining area overlooks the main dining room and opens to a large balcony with ivy-covered chimneys.

At SpringHouse, it’s about creating a complete dining experience. A beautiful setting and comfortable atmosphere—a warm greeting and attentive service—a curated menu and exquisite wines—each element works in concert to create the most memorable occasions. Our team looks forward to sharing those moments with you.
