About Le Cavalier
“Le Cavalier” (pronounced: luh-KAH-vuhl-YAY) honors the deep
equestrian tradition in the Brandywine River Valley. In the early 20th
century when the Hotel opened, visitors would arrive by horse as often
as they would by automobile or by foot. Finally, the du Pont family's
history of horsemanship, from William du Pont Jr. and Marion du Pont
Scott to Frolic Weymouth, provided further validation of the new
moniker.
Influenced by the flavors of North Africa and Provençe, Le Cavalier is a
neo-brasserie offering thoughtfully sourced French classics and
inventive riffs on French staples paired with natural wines designed to
complement our fare.
The Le Cav Team is excited for you to share this unforgettable experience!
