Hello all,

I am new to the site and also to the B & B business, can you experienced people please give me a clue as to what you serve for continental breakfast and do people help themselves or am I expected to serve them, sorry to sound a bit thick but I really want to do the right thing.
Thanks

No problem at all with self service. I would expect at least :

Orange or other fruit juice
The makings of tea, coffee and drinking chocolat
Milk (possibly hot and cold)
One Croissant and/or some brioche other patisserie
Some ordinary French bread
Some toast
Butter and other spread
Marmalade and Jam

If catering for Northern Europeans I would add
Boiled Egg, Ham, Some fresh seasonal fruit

Moot point if continental or not but would consider adding
Choice of say three breakfast cereals and Fresh Fruit Salad

I serve up the following:

orange juice - in a jug so they can help themselves
tea or coffee or chocolate in pots; for about 3 cups each but they can have more if they want
muesli or grapefruit or dried fruit compote or fresh fruit salad (whatever I feel like that am)
croissants, home made rolls, toast
butter, home made marmalade/jam usually a choice of 2 or 3
selection of one portion cheeses

If they want I'll do them a boiled egg or porridge but that's about all for cooking in the morning.
