As the days grow longer and the first signs of spring emerge, we are eagerly preparing to welcome guests back to Lupin Dining & Pantry for another unforgettable season. There’s an undeniable excitement in the air as we work behind the scenes, bringing together the many elements that make our farm-to-table experience so special.
The Rhythm of Reopening
Reopening a seasonal restaurant is a delicate balance of planning, preparation, and passion. While we’ve been closed to guests, the work never truly stops.

From refreshing the space to planning an exciting new menu, every detail is thoughtfully considered to ensure that when our doors open, we are ready to deliver the warm hospitality and inspired dining our guests have come to love.
One of the most exciting aspects of this time of year is menu development. Our approach at Lupin is deeply rooted in the seasonality of ingredients, meaning our menu is shaped by what’s available from our garden and local producers. We’re carefully curating dishes that highlight fresh flavors, and this year, we are looking forward to incorporating even more farm-grown elements into our plates.
From Garden To Table
The restaurant experience at Lupin is deeply connected to the land. While we finalize menus, we are also mapping out our garden plans, starting seedlings, and preparing the soil for another season of growth.

Every head of lettuce, bundle of herbs, and edible flower plays a role in our dishes, bringing vibrant flavors and freshness straight from the farm to your plate.
The process of planting, nurturing, and harvesting our own ingredients is not just about sustainability—it’s about deepening our connection with the food we serve and sharing that story with our guests. Whether it's crisp greens in a first-course salad or the bright flavors of just-picked herbs finishing a dish, our commitment to farm-to-table dining is more than just a philosophy—it’s our way of life.
The Joy of Gathering

Beyond the food, what excites us most about reopening is the opportunity to reconnect with our guests. Lupin is more than a restaurant; it’s a place where friends gather, where meals spark conversation, and where every visit feels like a special occasion. Whether you’re returning for a familiar favorite or trying something new, we can’t wait to welcome you back.
As we put the final touches on our preparations, we’re reminded of the joy that comes with sharing this space—our farm, our food, and our hospitality—with every one of you. Here’s to another season of great meals, good company, and unforgettable experiences at Lupin Dining & Pantry. We’ll see you soon!
