Breakfast
Guest experiences of breakfast at The Foothills Inn reveal a range of opinions, skewing more towards the underwhelming side.

Despite some positive notes, the consensus indicates that the breakfast selection is limited with some guests highlighting that it didn't meet their expectations or dietary needs, particularly for those on a gluten-free diet.

A recurring theme in the feedback was the need for better organization and a larger dining area, as it often becomes crowded.

The presence of a nearby Perkin's restaurant provided an alternative for those wanting a more robust morning meal.
