For over 10 years we have been a part of the culinary team at Old Westbury Gardens,

providing fresh baked goods, sandwiches, salads for

The Cafe in the Woods, Bus Tour Group lunches and the

Afternoon Teas held at the Gardens.

 

Orchard Hill – A lovely colonial from the late 1800s, once Peggy Phipps’ home. Situated away from the public gardens, it offers a serene setting with use of the entire first floor and backyard garden. Perfect for events with fewer than 60 guests.

​

The Barn – A modern farmhouse-style event space. Accommodates up to 70 guests inside, with the lawn outside suitable for a tent.

​

Both venues require a contract and rental fee of $1,000 payable to Old Westbury Gardens.

​

​

Please call to make an appointment to view the venue. Viewings are available February through October. Events are not available December through February.

Thank you again for your interest in Old Westbury Gardens. Together, we can create an event that is truly memorable.
