Candleberry Inn on Cape Cod

09/11/2026

Innkeepers / General Managers Eric and Charlene Taubert are pleased to announce that Candleberry Inn on Cape Cod has been named as "Cape Cod's Best Bed and Breakfast" in the 2026 Community Choice Awards, hosted by Cape Cod Times!

"This award is especially meaningful to us," said Eric Taubert. "This is our guests and our neighbors, on their own time, deciding Candleberry Inn was worth voting for out of every bed and breakfast on Cape Cod. This isn't a small field to stand out in. There are wonderful properties all over the Cape, and knowing people chose us out of all of them is the type of honor that's hard to put into words."

Thank you so much to everyone who cast a vote — guests, friends, and neighbors alike!

Candleberry Inn has once again been awarded the AAA Four Diamond distinction for 2026, a title currently bestowed upon only five properties on Cape Cod.

Christina Hayman and Mary Maguire of AAA Northeast returned to Candleberry Inn to deliver the news in person.

“Congratulations, Eric and Charlene,” said Maguire while presenting the award. “Earning the AAA Four Diamond Award for Candleberry Inn on Cape Cod places you among a small percentage of properties nationwide — it's an accomplishment that very few in the hospitality industry ever achieve.”

Candleberry Inn on Cape Cod Innkeepers / General Managers Eric and Charlene Taubert are proud to share this recognition with their whole team. Brooke, Lorin, and Nikolina stood for the photo with Eric and Charlene. Marilee wasn't there for the presentation ceremony, but her work is in this award just the same.

Thank you to our guests, whose return visits and word of mouth mean as much as any inspection score, and to AAA Northeast for making the trip back to Brewster with the good news!

Mid-August on Cape Cod means one thing: beach plums are coming in. The small, wild fruit has grown native along these dunes for centuries -- a taste that's been part of late summer on Cape Cod as long as anyone can remember.

Chef + New England Innkeeper Eric Taubert built today's breakfast starter around this quintessentially Cape Cod ingredient: Pistachio-Dusted Strawberry Skewers, organic honey, chèvre, puff pastry, finished with a beach plum drizzle. Vibrant color, bright fruit, and a balance of flavors showcasing what's in season right now.

From the cafés of Paris to the flowering gardens of Cape Cod: one of this morning's breakfast offerings -- our Candleberry Inn Croque Madame -- started as a memory from Innkeepers Eric and Charlene's travels through Europe.

"I had this dish a dozen ways in Paris cafés before I ever thought about making my own," says Chef Eric Taubert. "But I didn't want to just copy it — I wanted it to taste like where we are."

His version swaps pain de campagne for Portuguese muffins (bolos levedos), a Cape Cod staple most people outside New England have never heard of, and glazes the ham in organic Maine maple. Doused with a decadent Gruyere Mornay, finished with an over-easy egg, plus a dash of truffle zest -- and then served on a bed of fresh arugula -- and it feels right at home at Candleberry Inn on Cape Cod :-)

September on Cape Cod might be the best-kept secret of the whole year.

The shops and restaurants stay open, but the elbow-to-elbow feeling disappears almost overnight. The days are still warm enough for the beach and the evenings finally ask for a cozy sweater.

And, in the midst of it all, the luxuriously hospitable Candleberry Inn on Cape Cod casting its warm lights and filling the fresh ocean air around it with comforting aromas of homemade breakfasts and fresh baked sweets.
