The dining program at Carolina Meadows has been described by residents as “exceptional,” “better than you’d find at any other community.” That’s due, in large part, to an executive dining staff that was trained at the Culinary Institute of America and a base of community residents who appreciate well-made food.

“Our goal is to provide quality meals, great variety and excellent service. We actively seek feedback at each meal by visiting residents at the table, by reading the written comment cards, and through our semi-annual written Resident Survey.”

- Mark Maxwell, Director of Dining

How the dining plan works

Unlike many retirement communities, residents are not required to pay for one meal daily. Instead, they spend a minimum dollar amount. This minimum amount can be paid monthly, quartely or semi annually — just as you’d find in a fine country club. This allows you to pay only for the meals that you choose to enjoy in our Dining Room rather than feeling like you have to rush home for a meal you already paid for — as is the case in most retirement communities.

Carolina Meadows is licensed as a Private Club and provides liquor bottle lockers for a fee and free mixers for members. We also serve a selection of popular wine and beers for any resident or guest.
