Cook Together. Eat Together. Laugh Together. Make Memories Together.

Let's talk about something that happens on almost every group vacation.

You've gathered your family, your girlfriends, your best friends, or maybe three generations of relatives for a wonderful getaway in Hermann, Missouri.

Everyone is hungry.

Someone wants steak. Someone wants pasta. Someone is gluten-free. Someone doesn't eat dairy. Someone else is vegetarian. And, of course, someone has a family recipe they've been craving for weeks!

Now comes the big question:

"Where are we going to eat?"

First, you have to find a restaurant that's open.

Then you have to find one that can accommodate your entire group.

Then there's the wait for a table, the crowded dining room, the noise, the expense, and the possibility that your group will be separated across different tables.

And let's not forget those times when someone's order arrives wrong, a special dietary request gets overlooked, or the food doesn't arrive at the same time.

Does that sound like the relaxing group getaway you imagined?

Well, we've got a wonderfully different idea!

At Hermann Grain Bins Bed and Breakfast & Retreat Center, just outside the charming town of Hermann, Missouri, we offer something that makes our country bed and breakfast especially appealing for families, friends, and groups.

A beautiful, bright orange, full-service guest chef's kitchen where you can create your own wonderful meals, whenever you choose during your stay!

And the best part?

You can gather around our large dining table and enjoy your homemade creations together.

No restaurant reservations required!

Imagine walking into a big, beautiful gathering room surrounded by cheerful colors, country charm, comfortable furnishings, and a wonderfully inviting kitchen with BRIGHT ORANGE cabinets!

Yes, ORANGE!

Because at Hermann Grain Bins, we believe life is far too short for boring kitchens, boring vacations, or boring memories.

Our full-service guest chef's kitchen is located inside The Roost, our spacious gathering room connecting our two unique, two-story grain-bin guest accommodations.

The kitchen features a large island, full-size cooking facilities, and room to prepare everything from a simple afternoon snack to a special family dinner.

Perhaps you've always wanted to prepare your grandmother's famous spaghetti sauce for your grandchildren.

Maybe your group of girlfriends wants to cook an amazing Italian dinner together, complete with fresh salad, warm bread, pasta, and a bottle of local Missouri wine.

Or maybe you're celebrating someone's birthday and want to make their favorite meal, complete with a homemade birthday cake!

This is YOUR opportunity to create something wonderful for the people you love.

Bring your favorite recipes. Shop for your ingredients. Turn on some music. Put on your apron.

And make a little kitchen Magik!

One of the biggest advantages of staying at a bed and breakfast with a full guest kitchen is having control over your own ingredients, recipes, and meal preparation.

Let's face it.

Not everyone can eat everything.

Your group may include someone who prefers:

• Gluten-free meals

• Dairy-free recipes

• Vegetarian or vegan dishes

• Low-sodium cooking

• Lower-sugar meals

• Food prepared according to personal dietary preferences

• Special family recipes or individually selected ingredients

Maybe someone has a food allergy or needs to avoid particular ingredients.

Instead of trying to find a restaurant with a menu that works for everyone, our guests can prepare their own food using the ingredients they choose.

You can create a delicious meal for the entire group or prepare a separate little "something something" just for yourself!

Your food. Your ingredients. Your recipes. Your preferences.

For guests with serious food allergies or medical dietary restrictions, please remember that this is a shared kitchen, so you should take appropriate precautions regarding ingredients, utensils, and cross-contact.

The freedom of having a full-service kitchen available makes group travel so much more flexible.

And sometimes that flexibility is exactly what makes a vacation feel like a vacation.

Now here's one of our favorite parts of the entire Hermann Grain Bins experience.

Our large dining area in The Roost offers seating for up to 16 people, with our current overnight accommodations welcoming up to 12 guests.

And this isn't your ordinary dining table.

Our beautiful, approximately 140-year-old refurbished door has been transformed into a wonderfully unique dining table, filled with character, history, and personality.

Paired with individually decorated and hand-painted chairs, it creates a dining experience that's as memorable as the food itself.

Imagine the whole family gathered around that table.

Grandparents sharing family stories.

Children hearing those stories for the first time.

Friends reminiscing about adventures from years ago.

Sisters laughing so hard they can barely finish their dinner.

Someone asking for another helping of mashed potatoes.

Someone else bringing out a homemade peach cobbler.

And nobody is looking at the clock because the restaurant needs the table for another party!

You're together. You're comfortable. And the table is yours to enjoy.

That is the kind of dining experience we believe makes a family getaway, girls' weekend, or special celebration truly memorable.

Don't get us wrong.

We absolutely LOVE the restaurants, wineries, cafés, and wonderful culinary experiences available throughout Hermann, Missouri, and the surrounding Missouri Wine Country.

We encourage our guests to explore them!

But isn't it wonderful to have a choice?

When you stay at Hermann Grain Bins Bed and Breakfast & Retreat Center, you don't have to eat every lunch and dinner in a restaurant.

You can choose when to go out and when to stay in.

And staying in can be just as much fun!

Think about everything you can avoid on those evenings when you'd rather cook together:

No waiting in long restaurant lines.

No hoping the restaurant has enough room for your entire group.

No worrying about being seated at separate tables.

No incorrect restaurant orders.

No surprise substitutions on a limited menu.

No trying to hear each other across a crowded restaurant.

No rushing to finish your meal before the next reservation.

And for families or groups traveling together, cooking some of your own meals can also be a wonderful way to manage vacation food expenses.

You might decide to splurge on a special dinner in Hermann one evening and prepare a fabulous homemade feast in The Roost the next.

You get the best of both worlds!

Think about your happiest family memories.

How many of them involve food?

Grandma teaching you to roll out pie crust.

Dad standing at the grill, telling stories.

Your favorite aunt making her famous potato salad.

A group of girlfriends laughing over a recipe that didn't turn out exactly as planned.

A child learning to crack an egg for the first time.

There's something about making food together that invites conversation, laughter, cooperation, creativity, and connection.

That's why we love having a guest chef's kitchen at Hermann Grain Bins.

It's not simply a convenient amenity.

It's another place where memories are made.

Imagine planning a special weekend around cooking together.

Friday evening might be homemade pizza night.

Saturday could be a trip into Hermann to explore the wineries and shops, followed by a delicious dinner that everyone helps prepare.

Sunday morning? Relax!

Because your hostess has breakfast covered!

Now here's what makes our lodging experience especially special.

We're not simply a vacation rental with a kitchen.

We are a TRUE bed and breakfast!

That means each morning of your stay, you can wake up knowing that a delicious homemade farmhouse breakfast is being prepared for you.

No grocery shopping for breakfast ingredients.

No getting up early to cook for everyone.

No standing over the stove when you'd rather enjoy another cup of coffee.

We take care of breakfast!

Depending on the season and available local ingredients, you may enjoy farm-fresh eggs, homemade breakfast casseroles, sausage or bacon from local meat markets, pancakes, warm muffins, fresh breads, homemade jams and jellies, seasonal fruit, and other country breakfast favorites.

We serve our breakfasts on beautiful vintage china with charming serving dishes and vintage flatware.

And you get to enjoy it all while sitting around our extraordinary dining table in The Roost.

Homemade breakfast prepared for you every morning. A full guest kitchen for creating your own lunches, dinners, desserts, and special treats.

Now THAT is a wonderful combination!

Our guest kitchen and gathering room make Hermann Grain Bins especially appealing for so many different occasions.

What better way to bring three generations together than a weekend filled with cooking, sharing favorite recipes, playing games, relaxing, and enjoying one another's company?

Imagine a weekend filled with wine tasting, shopping, laughter, relaxing under the pine trees, and a homemade dinner prepared together in our fabulous orange kitchen!

Celebrate with a favorite homemade dinner, a cake prepared with love, and time around the table with the people who matter most.

Want a relaxed holiday meal together without having to find a restaurant that can accommodate everyone? Our guest kitchen offers the flexibility to prepare your own favorite holiday dishes during your stay.

Retreat leaders can organize group meals, cooking activities, collaborative dinners, and meaningful conversations around the dining table as part of their retreat experience.

Whether you're traveling from Missouri, Illinois, Kansas, Iowa, Arkansas, Nebraska, or elsewhere in the Midwest, Hermann Grain Bins offers a distinctive country getaway where your lodging can be part of the fun.

Not everybody wants to cook while they're away from home.

We understand!

That's why guests who want something special can also inquire ahead of time about ordering selected homemade specialties, including baked goods, soups, chili, and seasonal treats.

We can also share information about area catering companies for groups interested in arranging a prepared meal.

These special orders and catering arrangements require advance planning and are subject to availability.

So whether you want to prepare a special meal yourself, order some homemade goodies, or arrange a catered celebration, there are options worth exploring!

Our country bed and breakfast is nestled among beautiful pine trees on 11 peaceful acres just outside Hermann, Missouri.

We're a wonderful home base for exploring Missouri Wine Country and the surrounding communities.

Discover the scenic beauty of the Missouri River region.

Take a drive through the countryside.

Explore nearby communities such as Rosebud and Owensville.

Then return to the Bins, where you can put your feet up, enjoy your favorite beverage, prepare a delicious dinner, play games, visit with friends, or relax in one of our wonderful outdoor gathering areas.

We even have gas and charcoal grilling options for guests who enjoy cooking outdoors.

And if your group books our entire lodging complex, you can enjoy the guest accommodations and Roost together without sharing these spaces with another overnight guest group.

There are many wonderful places to stay in Hermann, Missouri.

Here's what I believe.

The best vacations aren't always about how many places you visit, how many restaurants you try, or how much money you spend.

Sometimes they're about sitting around a big table with the people you love, enjoying a meal that someone made with care.

They're about laughter.

They're about stories.

They're about those wonderful little moments when somebody says, "Remember when we all got together at the Bins?"

And everyone smiles.

At Hermann Grain Bins Bed and Breakfast & Retreat Center, we've created a place where you can enjoy the comforts of a true bed and breakfast, the freedom of your own guest cooking space, and the beauty of Missouri country living.

And together, we'll make some wonderful memories.

Welcome to the Bins!

Wacky, Weird & Wonderfully Enchanting!
