Assembly Inn’s Galax Dining Room
The Galax Dining Room in Assembly Inn serves all meals during conferences, as well as Sunday Lunch following summer worship. Guests begin making reservations early for other favorites, too, including Montreat’s traditional Thanksgiving Dinner.
Meal hours at the Galax Dining Room vary with each conference. (Please note: In the summer months, Saturday lunch is usually not served.) Check with the front desk in the Assembly Inn lobby or call 828.669.2911, ext. 0 for more information. Sunday lunch menus in the summer can be found in the latest issue of This Week in Montreat.
Holiday banquets, parties, and receptions are also popular options. Groups begin booking early for the best dates. Learn more about planning your own event.

Gratuity Policy: Because our guests often wish to thank the staff in some way for their service, an “Employee Assistance Fund” has been established to help staff members in times of need.
