The Candlekeep Inn is the inn of Candlekeep in Baldur's Gate. The innkeeper, a portly gent named Winthrop, buys and sells items and knows about the latest rumors.
Gorion's Ward stands just outside the inn at the beginning of the Prologue, ready to do what the latest journal entry advises.
Involvement[]
Prologue:[]
Two tutors tell their lessons if spoken to; an old mage on occasional visit from Beregost warms himself near the fireplace, waiting for someone to run an errand for him; Winthrop makes his usual jokes before opening the store; and in the side room, Thurston and Lovey, a wealthy noble couple, can be convinced that it's better to "leave [their] finery under lock and key"[1] instead of presenting their wealth to Candlekeep's monks not used to such. If that doesn't work, Thurston can still be charmed – to receive a trifle of 20

Upstairs, among some sleeping folks, Christian of Waterdeep and Quincy show the typical, condescending behavior of noblemen speaking with adventurers – or is it rather that of anybody who got disturbed in their rooms?
Side quests[]
- Find Gorion – Gorion sent his foster child to the inn, to purchase supplies for their upcoming departure.
- Firebead's Scroll – Firebead Elvenhair asks for an Identify scroll from Tethtoril who wanders around the citadel.
- An Errand for Fuller – Winthrop has some bolts to sell.
Chapter Six:[]
Services[]
Winthrop offers all four qualities of rooms, as well as an average number of average drinks. He buys most armor and weapons for half their value and, in addition, gems and miscellaneous items—with a depreciation rate of 20%—and has some quite hard-to-find items himself to sell. Rogues would need a Pick Pockets skill of thirty to successfully steal from him. The Candlekeep Inn does not restock for Chapter Six.
