The food scene in Gainesville is eclectic, offering everything from fine dining to casual fare at various times of the day. And that now includes HarborChase of Gainesville. In the past, notions of grab-and-go breakfast or lunch sandwiches, a five-course gourmet dinner, or daily happy hour at a senior living community were not dining-out options to be considered. Times have changed.
Exceptional Dining
For HarborChase, hospitality and a variety of exceptional dining opportunities have always been the core of their culture. A younger boomer generation coming into the senior living age want more freedom when it comes to dining fare – and they want it at the time of day they choose. With the recent renovation of HarborChase of Gainesville on Fort Clarke Boulevard, two new restaurants, a live cooking demonstration studio, and a private dining room reserved for parties are now open for business within the community.

Counter-Offer Cafe
Counter-Offer is a cafe tucked inside the main entrance offering artisanal sandwiches, handcrafted salads, pastries, and a variety of beverages, coffees, and snacks. For residents who prefer something less formal than the traditional three-course meal in Signatures, the cafe is ideal. For professionals and families who frequent the community, Counter-Offer is convenient for fresh, fast meals, and an ideal meeting space.
