Breakfast
Breakfast at the Gateways Inn receives mixed reviews from visitors. While some praise the upscale quality and particularly recommend the omelets, others note the limited serving time (9:00-9:45 AM) and occasional service issues.
The breakfast typically includes a hot entree of the day, though the kitchen can accommodate special requests. Guests mention that while the food quality is good, the portion control and service style can be somewhat rigid, with limited juice portions and restricted self-service options.
