And they had 100% pure Vermont maple syrup. 3 stars: Bacon and sausage link was fine. I would expect both to be this good from any reputable buffet. 1 star: I tried scrapple for the first time. Either it wasn't good for what it can be or I just don't like scrapple no matter where it's made. The baked hash brown casserole was very underwhelming. Overall, good value but overhyped. To get the best bang for your buck you gotta know what's good for your tastes and load up your plate on those items. So, pretty much like any buffet.

We chose the buffet and were glad we did. While the food was generally good but not great, it has good variety and all for less than $20. Salad options were fresh and the roasted chicken adds clean protein with pretty good taste. I recommend the dinner rolls with the chicken as well. Some traditional Amish dishes were available that I didn't care for but others might. The desserts were my favorite, including the pumpkin cake and the apple crumble. They also offer a soft-serve station and a variety of sweet pies.

If you're looking for a hearty meal at a reasonable price, this place is hard to beat. A few highlights from our visit: The buffet is the best value, offering unlimited access to a wide variety of freshly prepared dishes. Both hot and cold buffet options are available, so there's something for everyone. Dessert is included and features options like pie and soft serve ice cream. The food tasted fresh, homemade, and consistently well-stocked. We left incredibly full and satisfied. Other things worth noting: Plenty of parking available in the rear lot. Clean and well-maintained bathrooms. Friendly, attentive service throughout the meal. Despite arriving with a party of five, we were seated in about 10 minutes. Overall, Dienner's delivers exactly what you'd hope for from a Pennsylvania Dutch buffet: fresh comfort food, generous portions, great service, and excellent value. Whether you're visiting the Lancaster area or finishing up an Amish tour, it's a great place to sit down for a filling meal. I'd happily return on a future trip.

The aroma of sizzling meats and savory delights danced through the air like a minstrel's song upon a spring breeze. Golden crab rangoon, tender meats, steaming rice, and dishes beyond count stretched before me like the treasure halls of a mighty king. Each bite was a triumph. The food was prepared with such care that one could believe the royal chefs themselves had descended from their castle kitchens to labor in this establishment. The staff moved with the grace and swiftness of loyal knights, ever attentive and kind. Truly, for a moment, I believed I had discovered paradise upon this mortal realm. Alas, every grand tale bears its dragon. When nature called, I journeyed into the restroom expecting only a brief respite. Instead, I stumbled upon a scene fit for the darkest chapters of medieval history. It was as though a great siege had taken place within those walls. The battlefield lay scattered with unspeakable horrors--pee and poop strewn across the land as if rival kingdoms had waged war and abandoned all honor. I stood frozen, a lone knight gazing upon the ruins of civilization itself. The feast had been worthy of legends, yet the restroom was a tragedy that would make bards weep and scribes record with heavy hearts. Dragon Hibachi and Buffet serves food fit for royalty, but the kingdom must reclaim and restore its lavatories if it wishes to remain a true castle of dining.

After the play, we went to Hershey Farm Resort for dinner, and let me tell you--that was the biggest buffet I have ever been to! The food was absolutely amazing, with so many delicious options to choose from. I even tried crème brûlée French toast for the first time, and it was so good! If you ever get the chance to eat there, I highly recommend it. The restaurant itself is beautiful. As soon as you walk in, it's bright, welcoming, and incredibly spacious. The atmosphere made the experience even better. From an unforgettable show to an amazing meal, it was a wonderful day filled with great food, great fellowship, and great memories. I'm so thankful for opportunities like these with my church family.

Some of the hot items in the buffet were cold, maybe because we dined at 8am right when they opened (???) Hotel Rooms: 2 stars... fairly nice and tidy rooms. Comfortable beds and a restful nights sleep. The negatives -- We stayed for 2 nights; the hotel automatically disabled the card key after the first night, resulting in us having to go back to the front desk to get it reactivated. In addition, our room was not made up or refreshed for the 2nd night despite the fact the other rooms in our section were refreshed. Reservations: 0 stars. Group reservations are horrible. Difficult to get responses and one of the couples in our group was left with no room the 2nd night and were forced to scramble to find a place to stay. The person handling the group gave an apology but nothing else. Convenience: 5 stars; easy walk up to Sight & Sound Theater without having to move your car. Overall: all things considered, I would rate this experience 3 stars. If you just want to eat here, it's a good value but other restaurants in the area might be a better choice. If you want a hotel close to Sight & Sound, this is your place.

We decided to visit Bird-in-Hand because we hadn't been there in years, and unfortunately, guess what happened when we all got home? We got sick. Of course, that's always one of the risks you take with a buffet, with so many people handling serving utensils and being around the food all day. That being said, this place really is one of a kind. It is much bigger than it appears from the outside and has a HUGE buffet with an incredible variety of food. For around $31 per person, there are so many options, including fried chicken, peel-and-eat shrimp, warm pie, ice cream, and about five different types of soup. There really is something for everyone. Most of the food we tried was hot, fresh, and delicious. The service was also friendly and pretty decent overall. Our party of three waited about 30 minutes to be seated. While we waited, there was a bar area where guests had the option to sit and enjoy fresh popcorn from a popcorn machine, which was a nice touch. There is parking available, but be prepared to circle around a few times looking for a spot because, once again, this place gets EXTREMELY busy. It's located in a very tourist-heavy area of Pennsylvania, and they host a lot of tour buses, so there are constantly large groups of people coming and going from the time they open until they close. It was loud and crowded, with lots of people and kids running around. If you prefer a quiet, relaxing dining experience, this probably isn't the place for you. I also felt that the bathrooms could use a little TLC. I understand this is an extremely busy restaurant with a constant flow of customers, but they could definitely use some extra attention. So, is it worth the $31 price tag? Personally, I would say no, especially since drinks are not included. For that price, I think beverages should at least be included. Overall, the variety and selection of food are impressive & this buffet definitely has something for everyone. But between the crowds, noise, constant busloads of tourists, and the fact that everyone in my party ended up sick afterward, I'm not sure I would rush back anytime soon.

The inside of this place literally looks like a college dining hall but the food is like something out of a loving grandmother's kitchen. We were in the area to inquire about building something for our home at a nearby business and the business owner recommended we come here for lunch-and we were glad because it's our family's new favorite! We love it so much we came back and ate here a second time. The first time we came I had the meatloaf with mashed potatoes and broccoli. It was probably one of the best meatloafs I've ever had: tender and beefy. My son had the chicken and cheddar quesadilla with waffle fries which he loved. My husband had chicken soup and a lemon blueberry pie that was so good (he shared some with us). The second time we came my son and I hit Philly cheesesteak quesadillas and my husband got a club sandwich. Fast friendly service and the definition of comfort food. Come get some!

We enjoyed wonderfully tasty meals with friendly people in front of and behind the counters. The restaurant was clean, and -- well, there's really almost nothing to complain about. The focus is always on the food, of course. This GC buffet is big; no gripes about not enough choices. And our choices were delicious. Let's start with the veggies: mashed potatoes with hot gravy, broccoli and cauliflower with hot cheese sauce (the only way!), turnip greens, yummy cabbage, baked beans, green beans ... we ate 'em all. The fried chicken was crispy and hot (lots of breasts, our favs), the steaks cooked and sliced in front of us (not especially chewy either), the very agreeable bourbon chicken. And we haven't mentioned the salad bar with lots of fresh lettuce and toppings. The dessert bar also had lots of variety, although nothing other than chocolate everything is necessary for us. Our waiter was quick to refill glasses and clear dishes, and he had a nice sense of humor. He earned his tips. And the other waiters we observed appeared to be in good spirits as well. The dinner price was $17.59 for seniors, which seems a good price given how costly it has become to go out for a meal these days. And yes, we've written more than usual for a roadside buffet, but honestly we really like this one for the good reasons listed above.

Why I am giving it two stars is because of the service. Not one person behind the buffet smiled, said anything welcoming and acted like it was a big deal if you asked a question. Even the manager was rude. He looked like he was mad at the whole world. I wouldn't go back even though the food was better than some other GC's I have been too. The place had an oppressive feeling and I don't want to go somewhere that people hate working at.
