Situated on Yale University's New Haven campus, Union League Cafe allows guests to savor classic French cuisine in an elegant and vibrant space that bears the resemblance of a 19th-century brasserie. The perfect setting for a romantic evening, the restaurant's vintage-themed interiors feature elaborate chandeliers, premium fabrics, sleek hardwood floors, and a traditional fireplace which lends the entire dining hall a majestic aura. The menu is well-structured and includes all-time favorites like the Crevettes Et Calamar, Canard Au Poivre, and the Lotte Au Vin Rouge. The cafe is also well-known for its desserts; especially the exquisite Creme Brulee Catalane.
This restaurant is definitely rich in history. Formerly a nursery and fruit farm, a barn, a private residence and a host of other things, Crabtree's Kittle House finally settled in as an inn and restaurant after the Crabtree family took over in 1981. Since then, it has been known for its fine culinary tradition and the warm hospitality of the staff. Travelers usually stop over at this enchanting little place to take in a breath of fresh air, while others believe in celebrating their private and special events with their entire family here. Winner of the Grand Award, the wine list complements the food well, which is prepared with the freshest ingredients available in and around the Hudson valley.
