The Owners:

Gwen Avers is a graduate of the University of Florida. With a degree in Dietary Management and 13 years experience managing all 3 Willow Valley Retirement Villages Gwen is poised for success. Her husband Dennis, AKA "The Floater" works for Donnelly Printing  but keeps the guests entertained with his  friendly demeanor.  Dennis is a "good ole boy" from West Virginia. However, Dennis has nearly 30 years as a central Pennsylvanian and this web master from New York City did not detect an accent.
 
Flavers Food & Spirits, a dream realized by one of the area's most gifted chefs. With owners Gwen and Dennis Avers at the helm, this family run, culinary destination is poised to be a contender for one of the area's top new restaurants. Its eclectic menu is executed with panache, while the space itself has been warmed considerably from its previous incarnations. Flavers reflects a cozy,  intimate casual, but elegant style with stunning architectural treatments and rustic colonial interior decor.

Flavers non-pretentious atmosphere is achieved through a flowing colonial design, in a friendlier time where the owner hosts guests for lunch and dinner in an elegant and warm environment. This location was once part of the Underground Railroad.

Stringent standards of excellence in service, food presentation, and quality ingredients, married with delicious innovative cuisine concepts, complete the dining experience. Be sure to end your meal with one of our delicious desserts, made in-house by Gwen herself!

Gwen and Dennis have been married for over 30 years and have raised 4 children and have 8 grandchildren. They both would like to thank everyone for their support.
