Every chef has a story. Thank you to the Smith Mountain Laker Magazine for sharing one of ours in “The Making of a Mountain Chef.”

It’s a pleasure to see Chef Wells’ story take center stage. We invite you to get to know the chef behind the culinary creations at The Regency Room and the journey that brought him into the kitchen at The Hotel Roanoke & Conference Center.

Wells Selbe, the new chef de cuisine at Hotel Roanoke, brings a fresh Appalachian-inspired twist to the Regency Room, aiming to elevate Roanoke's dining scene.

A weekend worth dressing for.

The new fall menu has arrived in The Regency Room, and the Baked Burrata is already making an impression. Served in an acorn squash bowl with preserved fig jam, smoked sea salt and grilled sourdough, it’s a delicious reason to make dinner plans.

Linger over a bottle of w**e, save room for Bananas Foster, and let live music draw you onto the dance floor Friday and Saturday evenings.

Get out, unwind, and make a night of it.
