    The Wilbur Mansion is a really neat building. They did a great job of combing the old world with the new. I love that they kept the old wood work in the building, which is intricate and beautiful. The service was great. The food was delicious. Everything we had from the carrot soup and Italian pepper appetizer, to the lamb and rib eye entree, and the brownie and peanut butter explosion dessert were all tasty. We will definitely be back!

    We waited over a half hour for our drinks, my filet mignon was undercooked. Veggies were cold and undercooked. Was given gravy instead of a peppercorn sauce that I was told they had. Was given an empty dessert menu. Did not have Chardonnay by the glass

    We arrived and were immediately welcomed and shown three different options for seating as we received a tour of several rooms in the mansion. I don't know where to start with the food. The Brussel sprouts were so good.........just the right amount of honey. There were six of us and everyone loved their main course. I had the filet and wouldn't hesitate to order it again. We also had dessert. I had the creme brûlée and it was ok but not enough vanilla for my taste. We loved the Mansion and will be back.

    Good afternoon Jackie, Thank you for your great 5-star review of your experience at the Wilbur Mansion. Our guests love the Brussel Sprouts, Filet and our famous Creme Brulee which we will address more vanilla for the taste. Lou Gaudio Hotel Manager.

    The food was delicious, plentiful, but the service is what really sets Wilbur Mansion apart. Waitstaff and manager were attentive and engaging. The mansion itself with all the intricate carvings and beautiful grounds was in of itself a treat. We will return again for sure.

    Brunch and cocktails were delicious, and our server Sandy was amazing! Traffic was a little bit noisy because of the highway nearby, but didn't ruin the atmosphere. Definitely recommend going for brunch and sitting outside if the weather is nice! Ask for Sandy!

    We go to the Wilbur frequently, and this was our first time there for brunch. It was amazing! We will definitely be back to try some of the other delicious choices. Eric was our server and he is always on point and very pleasant.

    We went for a late Mother's Day brunch and sat on the outdoor patio. Everyone was very friendly, great service and the food and drinks were fantastic. We had a real mix of brunch options - charcuterie board, deviled eggs, mixed berry French toast, waffle board, eggs benedict flight and omelet bowl. Everything was hot and beautifully presented and they were very sensitive to the gluten allergy restrictions for one of our guests. Love this place!

    Good afternoon Erin, We are delighted to read you 5-star review of your Mother's Day experience. Weather permitting it is wonderful to sit on our outdoor patio with the amazing views of historic Bethlehem. Our brunch offerings such as our charcuterie board, mixed berry french toast, and our famous eggs benedict flights are guests favorites. We are happy to note that when it comes to sensitivity to allergies our team in the kitchen will make sure that every guest has the best meal. We hope to see you soon. Lou Gaudio Hotel Manager.

    The Wilbur Mansion was an exceptional dining experience from the moment we were greeted at the door. Our server Josh went above and beyond to help us navigate a few food allergies. Our dinner was amazing from beginning to end! I highly recommend the Wilbur Mansion!
