“The combination of ingredients used in and on her cupcakes are awesome! I love her cupcakes and her personality and cheerfulness! I just wish I didn’t need to be on a diet! A treat once in a while is necessary though! Keep up the great job!”

“The journey to this bake shop is a story.

We drive into an Amish farm and saw no cars parked, nor a sign telling us where the bakery is. We drive deeper into the barn, almost knocking over the family dog. There were some dogs in cages barking at us, not sure if it was to welcome us, or to warn us.

We saw a guy who seem to work there, or owns the place. He told us that we went too far in, and said “turn around, it’s the red shed”.

We turned the car around, again, looking around to see which of those could be the bakery. We saw a hand written board “open”.

We go in. Shelves were almost empty except for a few trays of whoopie pies and some fry pies in the refrigerator. No one was inside except a box saying “self service”. “Interesting” we thought. Never have we seen such an establishment that was based on trust.

OH yes, how were the pies you say? SO GOOD. Just gotta bake them real good for a little. The whoopie pies are also really moist and cream not coyingly sweet.”

“Kitchen Kettle Village was such a fun and charming stop! There were so many shops to explore — from homemade treats to handcrafted decor — and even some of the cutest little Airbnbs right on-site. I could’ve taken home so many snacks and goodies, but the semi can only hold so much 😂 We still managed to bring back a few favorites! The fudge-making was so fun to watch (and taste!), and the pretzels, ice cream, and kettle corn are absolute must-tries. It made for such a nice, relaxing afternoon in the heart of Amish Country, and we can’t wait to come back again soon! 🛍️🍦🌾”

“Great food and wonderful staff. The sweet potato French Fries are to die for.”

“A wonderful place to get lunch… their waffle fries are the best!!😋 they were busy… but they got the food out in fairly good time… and for the most part they have the orders right on!!👌”

“Just had a wonderful lunch on the deck! Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. We will definitely be back!”

“Probably the best ice cream I have ever had.”

“My husband and I were on a small getaway and discovered this treasure. I am an ice cream lover and must tell you that this is hands down the BEST ice cream I ever had. My husband profoundly agrees! He wanted to go again before we left but it wasn’t possible. We’re already trying to plan another trip down just to go to Fox Meadows. Also, the staff was so friendly. The you g woman who waited on us was extremely friendly and provided us samples to try. Since it was our first visit we were also given a free beverage each! We 💯 percent recommend!!!!!”

“Amazing!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re anywhere near Leola, do yourself a favor and stop into Gracie’s On West Main. From the moment we walked in, the staff stood out. You can tell they’re incredibly well-trained—not in a stiff, scripted way, but in a way that feels genuine. They welcomed us as if they knew us for years and were eager to share the story behind the café, which made the whole experience feel personal instead of transactional. The food absolutely delivered. Everything came out fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. And the bacon? Honestly, next level. Perfectly cooked, packed with flavor—easily some of the best I’ve had anywhere. This is one of those places that gets it right across the board: great people, great atmosphere, and food that actually lives up to the hype. We’ll definitely be back when we are in the area!”

“First time trying the cheesesteak, it was amazing! Definitely will be back!”

“Their pretzels are amazing. Wide variety of jar food, baked goods and hand made goods. Can’t wait to go back next year.”

“A+ food and friendly, thanks!”

“I’ve visited the creamery at the farm and in their store. This is the best ice cream I’ve eaten!! I also had a pastry for breakfast. I think was called a rolled pastry or similar. It has several layers of ham and cheese inside a really tasty buttery pastry that looks like a French croissant. It was delicious!!”

“New ownership. Limited menu. Bring back the brisket platter.”

“Can’t travel to Lancaster anymore without stopping for a Pernil Arepa! Phenomenal service and incredible food! 10/10 every time, best food around!”

“Michael's Homemade Breads are the absolute best breads in the area! Their cinnamon raisin Bread is so delicious, it keeps me driving an hour away just to get it! Love it!”

“love their truck at local events! great ice cream stop, great for family/ kids”

“Stopped in today with a coworker. And we were amazed at how great the food was and the service was top notch. The Rueben was spectacular and my coworker had an amazing California cheeseburger. This place is definitely going to be one of my go to eatery's when I am in the area. Thanks for a great lunch.”

“This is a real gem of a place. The atmosphere was nice and the food was so good. We loved the variety of drinks and all of the fresh, heavily veggie dishes. It can be hard sometimes to find veggie focused dishes at restaurants, but the menu had plenty of options (and the options to add proteins).”

“Oh man these pretzels! If you order flavors or whole wheat they are made to order and rolled from dough in front of your eyes. I don’t think I’ve ever had a pretzel straight from the oven. I wish I could have it again!”

“Love the atomsphere, great food, excellent desserts and the cutest gift shop! One of my absolute favorite places to go!”

“The ribs are so good and meat that falls off bone was truly the highlight for me.
Coleslaw was super fresh..
Alongside that they have a nice shady area to sit and enjoy your meal. Prices are very reasonable for what you get. Environment is also a plus. Me and wife will definitely keep coming here for sure...”

“We had our office lunch catered by 272 BBQ and it was a hit! The food was outstanding! We had plenty of pulled pork, mac and cheese and coleslaw to go around. I worked with Logan to make this happen. He was quick to respond with a quote and my questions. I highly recommend 272 BBQ!”

“First here and was very happy to find this place. I come from Italy and I will for sure recommend this place. The food is awesome and so is the service. Friendly environment. Gracie!!”

“This was something like my 3rd visit. It is an absolute must when coming to Amish Country. Make it a jumping off place for your exploring. The baked goods are amazing, the service is friendly, efficient and well thought out and the ambiance lets you begin to feel that you have really stepped away from your busy, modern life. Great for families, tourists or those who just want a to slow down.”

“Linden Coffee makes my taste buds happy! Seriously though, we stopped by one day on a trip to PA. We are from MD. In ordered a hazelnut cold brew, oh boy was it yummy. We came up to PA again and I made it a point to stop before we headed home. Again, they did not disappoint! This coffee is GOOD! I dance inside when I drink it. ❤️”

“My family and I just had a wonderful time here. Food was great! Service was great. Cody S was great! He allowed us time to decide. We didn’t feel rushed. Totally recommend this place.”

“Had lunch there yesterday, food was great, hadn't had a decent Gryo since moving out of the Chicago area, there's was outstanding.”
