New York Times Review - Richard Gere’s “Bedford Post”

Congratulations! We have just gotten through the last weekend of the Winter! Perhaps now it is time to plan a trip back up to the Town of Bedford - of course you remember that it includes Katonah!

Click here for the review of Richard Gere’s Restaurant, “Bedford Post.” The historic main building is the only building to survive the “Burning of Bedford” during the Revolutionary War by the British when it was an inn. It formerly housed the long time local restaurant favorite Nino’s and then Hoppfield’s.

Richard Gere has restored the complex to include:

• The Barn - open 8am to 8:30pm
• The Farmhouse - Dinner - 5:30pm to 10pm
• The Bakery - open 6:30am - 4:30pm and then reopens for dinner 6:30-8:30pm - rumor has it that Martha Stewart comes on horseback from her estate in Katonah to have a fresh scone and coffee in the morning! There ARE places to hitch your horse for the riding community!
PS - Maybe Martha is delivering the scones!

Call for Reservations: 914-234-7800

Before or after a meal at Richard Gere’s Bedford Post - or any of the local establishments including The Meetinghouse in Bedford Village or Deer Park Tavern in Katonah, the Blue Dolphin (closed Sundays) or a kid friendly meal at Friendly’s in Mt. Kisco - perhaps…

You can visit the Katonah Museum of Art to see the current work of our Advanced Placement Seniors from Westchester Schools OR the new Lichtenstein Show - March 29th - June 28th. There is always a Hunt Sheet for the children! Plus the Learning Center….914-232-9555.

-or-

Visit the Caramoor Center for the Arts - The Rosen House Museum for a Docent led tour of the Rosen home and the Collections - similar to Hearst’s San Simeon in inspiration and pride of collecting for one’s own use (914-232-5035).

I am a Docent at both institutions and if you would like me to help in the planning of such a sojourn I would be happy to help!
