Executive Chef Daniel Jackson, a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, has developed a sleek, sophisticated dining experience at the Reluctant Panther Inn & Restaurant. In addition, Chef Jackson has designed a creative menu featuring New England regional cuisine accompanied by a superb wine list and a generous selection of wines by the glass... set against a background of stunning mountain views and a warm fire. For more casual fare, try our “Wine Cellar”. Chef Jackson uses locally produced foodstuffs when available.
