Who We Are

For over 20 years, Peter Platt and Meredith Kennard have been making their mark in the dynamic hospitality and food scene in the Berkshire Hills. During that time, Peter’s work as one of the top Chefs in the region has been met with unalloyed praise.

Peter Platt, a graduate of Williams College, learned his craft at the Parker House Hotel in Boston under the guidance of Jasper White and Lydia Shire. This beginning was notably followed by a twelve year stint as executive chef at Wheatleigh in Lenox, Massachusetts, the renowned Lenox property well known for its exceptional cuisine. Peter accepted the position as executive chef at The Old Inn on the Green in 2002, transforming the restaurant into a top destination for diners in the region. In 2005, Peter and Meredith purchased the Old Inn from former owner Bradford Wagstaff and Leslie Miller. Peter and Meredith then went on to purchase the Southfield Store in order to have a dedicated baking kitchen and continue to operate the store as a café serving breakfast, lunch, and sometimes dinner.
