The Dinner Gild

Many of us make it a habit to dine at Gild Hall every Saturday beginning in October and into June of the following year. It's a perfect way to start a Saturday evening.

You can leave your name and contact information on the voicemail at the Reservation Line: 302 792-7139.

Dinners start at 6:00 p.m. unless otherwise notified. A few dinners will start at 5:30 p.m. if they are held on the same dates as certain Arden Club events.

The dinner prices ($9/members, $11/visitors and $5/children) have not increased for this season. One of our key objectives is to keep the price of the dinners as low as possible. Unfortunately, the cost of electricity, gas, water and labor continues to increase. We will hold the line on prices for at least the next season.

Newcomers: If you have never or rarely worked on an Arden Dinner Gild crew join the fun team for the Newcomers Dinner (February 23). It is an opportunity to learn how to prepare and cater for a large group while having a good time. You will be guided by people skilled in the culinary arts who will patiently teach you the tricks-of-the-trade. Please call Amy Pollock -302-529-1261 - to be become part of the team. No experience is required.
