He who distinguishes the true savor of food can never be a glutton; he who does not cannot be otherwise.
~ Henry David Thoreau

Every testimonial given to Presentation Center makes glowing mention of the excellent, tasty, nutritious food. All event packages are Full American Plan (up to 3 meals with an overnight stay, depending on arrival and main dining room at lunchdeparture times). Individual meals may also be purchased. Meals are served buffet style. Breakfast is served from 8:00 AM  to 8:45 AM, lunch from Noon to 12:45 PM, and dinner from 6:00 PM to 6:45 PM.

Additional food service items can be ordered for your meeting or retreat, including continental breakfast, mid-morning or mid-afternoon snack, appetizer socials, and coffee and tea service delivered to your meeting room.

We have three dining rooms. Our main dining room, the Curran Room, is the largest, offering panoramic views and seating up to 144 people. Round tables accommodate eight diners each.

The Cavanaugh Room, with seating for up to 48, and Morgan Hill Room , with seating for up to 24, serve dual function as both dining rooms and meeting rooms, enabling the Center to separate groups that have different activities or styles, or permit all of the dining rooms collectively to accommodate approximately 200 guests.

Meal Times

All meals are served buffet style, and a beverage serving counter is located in each dining room. Meals are served at these times:

  • Breakfast:  8:00 AM to 8:45 AM
  • Lunch:  12:00 PM to 12:45 PM
  • Dinner:  6:00 PM to 6:45 PM

The Curran Dining Room is a comfortable gathering place with wi-fi access, and guests are welcome to use the facility between meals for these purposes when it does not interfere with normal operation of the facility as a dining hall. From time to time, guests may be asked to vacate the Dining Room after meals to facilitate cleaning and set up for the next meal. We ask your cooperation so that we may, first and foremost, maintain a clean and comfortable dining space for all.

"Having attended meetings at a number of conference centers around the country I was expecting the meals to be rather forgettable. Instead they were exceptionally good, much the best that I have had at any similar meeting."
