It's like walking into a farmhouse-inspired shoppe with many local treats including their famous creamy icecream, a delightful seating section of rocking chairs by the fireplace, a full cafe, and a farm-inspired playplace for the kiddos! It's a great spot for friends, community and the entire family! I had the rotisserie chicken noodle soup, and while the thicker consistency is true to the area, I'm used to and prefer a thinner consistency with diced chicken. I've been here on multiple occasions and the service overall is good. On this particular day that I went, the young lady at the counter was very pleasant, sweet and helpful.

Apart from the really nice location I feel like this place could really work on the seasoning of their soup specifically. It reminds me of cafeteria food which isn't all that bad but just an average place to eat at. The servers here are all very nice and make you feel at home. Overall it's a chill spot to come and hang out. I am currently sitting on a rocking chair next to a fire place inside the location writing this, come enjoy the atmosphere.

Our server was very nice. I'd eat here again.

Never, ever going to order anything like this again in Lancaster county! Worst $18 spent in quite awhile, I must say!

We stopped at Dutch Haven after lunch across the parking lot, drawn in by the windmill, which…read morestands like a beacon for travelers aong Route 30 and the mildly curious. It is the sort of landmark that promises something memorable, or at least something sweet. Inside, the place leans heavily into its role as a stop-off for visitors. Shelves are filled with faux-Amish goods, hex signs, and a cheerful assortment of bric-a-brac, along with shirts that seem very proud of nearby towns with names that invite, shall we say a certain kind of humor. It feels less like a bakery and more like a general store that wandered into a theme. The people working there are genuinely kind, and generous with samples, which is always a wise and welcome strategy. We tried a bit of the shoo fly pie, and in the past we've tried some cookies, root beer, and ice cream. They were all perfectly fine. Pleasant, even. But they did not distinguish themselves from the many other places in Lancaster County offering the same treats with equal or better competence. Nothing here is bad. In fact, it is all quite enjoyable in the moment. But it is not something I would go out of my way for again. Far less so when the tourist busses are around. It is a place you stop at because you are already there, because the windmill caught your eye, because someone offers you a sample and you say yes. Three stars, for doing what it does well enough, in a place where "well enough" is abundant.

I haven't experienced that at other tourist traps, it's kind of odd. I'd say this is worth checking out at least once if you're in the area, but unless you want cheesy stuff it's a pass. Also I didn't really see any shoofly pies for sale (I might have missed them though).

I spent this past weekend staying in Room 704 at The Inn at Kitchen Kettle village. This room is…read morean accessible room even though it's on the second floor. There is an elevator to get upstairs. The bathroom worked fine for me. I have mobility issues and walk with a cane. There are bars in the bathtub, but none around the toilet. There is a bath seat. The shower is amazing actually and the hot water plentiful. One thing to be aware of is that the elevator is small and a bit old. It has gates and all. It only holds two people, so a large wheelchair or heavy mobility scooter might not fit. The room itself is really comfortable and I was happy that the beds are not super high. Breakfast is provided in the Harvest Cafe. There are 4 or 5 choices. If you stay over on a Saturday night you get a shopping coupon to use in the Village since for Sunday since the Village is closed on Sunday. The customer service at The Inn (and the Village too) is amazing. Everyone we met went above and beyond to be helpful. Since the Village is closed in the evening and on Sunday, you can be sure that it will be quiet. I'll be back there for sure!

I think Kettle Korn is the national bird of Pennsylvania.

There is usually a young lady there that is really enjoyable and sweet. Today there was a guy at the register that was being difficult with my request. I usually get the $12 mixed (3 flavors). He was so dramatic and the butter popcorn was horrible. I didn't eat it until I was on the highway. The buttered popcorn was extremely soft and flavorless as if it was stale. The other 2 flavors were okay. There were 2 employees standing behind him who thought his back and forth was hilarious. But with the poor quality and poor customer service, I will never come Back. Horrible, Horrible,Horrible. Very uninviting.

Ambience - I see that others described the decor as "vintage" and that would be an accurate description. The dining room and buffet stations are a little dimly lit. Food - this is the main reason people come here and it did not disappoint. There was a lot of variety and the food quality is generally 3.5 stars. Nothing really jumped out as outstanding, but everything was generally slightly above average in quality by buffet standards. The desserts are baked in house and was definitely the highlight of the meal. Note: be sure to take a souvenir tourist pic in the old car in the lobby.

The price honestly is way too high for what you get. It was $41 with a drink for lunch, not typically what I'll spend and in this case way overpriced. I did like the carving station with the ham. The peel and eat shrimp was good and the fried chicken was good, but not warm and very limited on selection of the pieces. The sides were OK maybe they just weren't my thing. The entryway is really cool. The server only brought drinks so not a lot of interaction there. I think it has potential, but for some reason, I did not get the full five star lunch. Not impressed.
