Limoncello at the Orange Inn in Goshen NY was opened by brothers Luigi and Victor Kapiti in August of 2006. With almost 3 decades in the restaurant industry under their belts, the Kapitis’ decided to transform what was once a rundown restaurant and inn.
The Orange Inn was a Goshen Landmark, dating back to 1790. Many historical figures were guests at the inn, especially from the Revolutionary war era. The inn’s distinguished guests ranged from George Washington to James Cagney.
During the Civil War, the Orange Inn was used as a haven for escaped slaves. The building itself is built on the foundation of an old prison. Located across the street from Goshen’s historic race track, many people would come to the inn (especially the bar within the inn) after races. Over the years, and changing of hands, by the early 2000s, the inn was no longer what it once was. The Kapiti brothers revamped the inn, and created Limoncello at the Orange Inn to feel more like you are inside a Northern Italian home.
