Please note: Costs of sodas, alcoholic beverages, mixers, and snacks constitute an additional charge based on consumption. Guests are asked to select meals in advance and pre-pay for groceries. Staff must be informed of dietary restrictions at time of menu selection. We can cater to both vegan and vegetarian dietary requirements. Refunds of $10 for breakfast or lunch and $20 for dinner are given if meal is cancelled with 48-hour notice. We ask that you pre-select your menu choices as the garden is seasonal, and we may need to supplement the items necessary to deliver fresh fish and vegetables.
In the spirit of community, the Highland House, in collaboration with www.urbanfarming.org, is sponsoring the planting of organic gardens at the Anchovy Primary School in Jamaica. The harvest supports both the school lunch program and the needy in the community. A portion of your rental fee will be donated to this important effort.
