Randell Dodge's Red Barn Bakery to Open Pop-Up Cafe at Lyndhurst in Tarrytown

A “pop-up cafe” will open at the Carriage House at Lyndhurst in Tarrytown on October 16, 2015. The new eatery will offer its wares at events occurring on Thursday through Sunday and during the hours daytime guided tours are conducted on Friday through Sunday.

In addition to serving light meals and snacks, the eatery will sell an assortment of pies for take-home including apple pie and apple salted caramel crumb pie — baked from apples picked from trees over one hundred years old in the estate orchards.

Activities at Lyndhurst include guided tours, the daytime “Scarecrow Invasion” and the nighttime “Jay Ghoul’s House of Curiosities.” The theme for this season’s House of Curiosities program is “Lyndhurst, the Disenchanted Castle.”

The Red Barn Bakery offerings will vary but will typically include such organic items as savory tart with roasted wild mushroom, tomato and kale; veggie hand pies with lentil, kale and carrot or white beans, leeks and Heirloom tomato. Also to be offered are gluten-free macaroni and cheese and soup varieties such as carrot and ginger, or lentil, carrot and kale along with crispy bread.

“Gluten-free pumpkin donut muffins, seasonal scones, muffins, decorated cookies and French macarons are sure to be a treat for all ages along with hot cider and coffee,” Red Barn Bakery owner Randell Dodge said.

Grab-and-go meals will be available to visitors attending late-afternoon tours.

Tour participants visit the mansion’s main rooms including the recently restored Grand Picture Gallery, the elegant State Bedroom, and the 1895 bowling alley (also recently restored).
