Thayer's owner, and Chef

Sharon Gammell

Sharon Gammell is not only a talented psychic and hostess, she is an outstanding chef who is happy to accommodate her guests with a flexible menu, wonderful staff and extraordinary surroundings.

Sharon Gammell is a self-taught gourmet chef of 35 plus years. She has had successful restaurants in Saint Paul and Minneapolis, Minnesota and over the years has catered to groups as small as 2 and as large as 1,500.

In 1993, when the Gammell's purchased Thayer's building, the dining area was leased to and managed by another party. Finally, in late December 1994, circumstances changed and Sharon & Warren were able to incorporate the dining area into their bed & breakfast and offer guests an outstanding dining experience.

The food, style, taste and presentations at Thayer's are amazing. Sharon Gammell cooks without recipes and has an eye and imagination for delightful twists to tempt your palate. She can take the ordinary to new and extraordinary. Preferring traditional to trendy, her food takes on a comfortable and familiar persona, but don't be fooled, her food is not traditional.

As the owner of Thayer's, Sharon Gammell wears many hats. She is first and foremost a gifted psychic, then an innkeeper, chef, wedding officiate, bookkeeper, decorator, maid, supervisor, and perfectionist so, whether she happens to be doing a psychic reading, teaching a class in the paranormal, making you hot chocolate or a coffee, cooking your dinner, , making your bed, or serving your breakfast, rest assured everything here at Thayer's B&B will meet her high standards.
