Three home-style meals a day in a wheelchair-accessible dining hall, served alongside coffee, conversation, and the kind of fellowship that makes a retreat actually feel like one.
All meals at Tel Hai are served in our central Dining Hall , a place built for groups to gather, eat well, and linger. Multiple retreat groups share the dining hall at meal times, but with plenty of seating and a warm, hospitable rhythm, your group will feel right at home from the first meal onward.
Every meal is prepared on-site by our Food Service Director, Paul Fish, and his kitchen team. The cooking is home-style: hearty, real, and the kind of food that fuels a full day on the property.
The Dining Hall is fully wheelchair accessible.
Breakfast — served at 8:00 AM
The day begins with a hot breakfast in the Dining Hall. The kind of breakfast that makes it worth getting up early. Coffee, juice, and a rotating menu of warm classics give your group the fuel they need before sessions, hikes, or whatever the morning holds.
Lunch — served at 12:00 PM
Lunch lands in the middle of the day, when groups have already been moving through morning sessions, recreation, or a walk down to the lake. The midday meal is filling, familiar, and built to send people back into the afternoon ready to keep going.
Dinner — served at 5:30 PM
Dinner is the meal most groups linger over. The full meal lands at 5:30 with seating that lets your group eat together, talk together, and let the day catch up with them. Many retreat schedules build evening sessions, campfires, or worship right around the dinner hour. We keep evening snacks ready for groups who want one before lights out.
Most retreat packages include an evening snack as part of the meal plan.
