It was like a jar of preserves had been placed between 2 sheets of mediocre pastry. Hubby had ham (yuck) and shredded home fries, that were cold and tasted like they'd been hanging out on the grill for a few hours. 2 stars instead of one as the lady at the counter was decent enough to take the pie off our bill. Obviously the locals love this place, but I was very disappointed. ChatGPT had recommended it. Try it and see what you think. We won't bother going back.

Went to the Ohio star theater and didn't want to fight the lines at the Amish buffet there in…read moreSugarcreek. Figured we'd give the Amish door a shot since AI generated this as a recommendation. It was $23 a person and another $4 for a coffee. The bill for 4 grownups with the buffet and 2 coffees was $108 on 7/11/26. The dinner buffet at 4pm was one 5 foot double sides buffet. The salad was the same. To put this in perspective, Yoders kitchen is 4 times that. The dessert options, with this paid full buffet dinner was graham cracker pudding or chocolate cookie pudding. The dinner options were breaded fried shrimp, chicken, meatballs, some sort of sausage or kielbasa and a shredded meat of some sort. That's it. That's it. I planned my mother in laws birthday out to the very last minute, to give her the best birthday celebration possible, and I felt so disappointed that this restaurant was so underwhelming.

During our trip through Ohio's Amish Country, we stopped by Yoder's Greenhouse in Apple Creek, and…read moreit was one of those places that instantly puts you in a good mood. The greenhouse is beautifully laid out with an incredible selection of flowers, hanging baskets, annuals, perennials, herbs, vegetables, shrubs, and so much more. Everywhere you look there's another burst of color, and it's obvious they take great pride in caring for their plants. Everything looked healthy, vibrant, and ready to thrive once you got it home. What I really appreciated was how peaceful the greenhouse felt. There was no pressure to hurry, so we were able to take our time walking through the aisles, admiring all the different varieties, and picking out our favorites. The staff was friendly and welcoming, answering questions without ever making us feel rushed. It's the kind of customer service you hope to find at a family-owned business. Whether you're looking to add some color to your flower beds, spruce up your porch with beautiful hanging baskets, or simply enjoy browsing one of the nicest greenhouses in Amish Country, Yoder's Greenhouse is absolutely worth the visit. We'll definitely be making another stop the next time we're in the area. If you're taking a day trip through Amish Country, be sure to add Yoder's Greenhouse to your list--you won't be disappointed!

AMISH KITCHEN COOKING…read more A big restaurant where you'll notice some Amish women working while wearing their traditional white head covering or bonnet. I visited Der Dutchman restaurant for the first time in Walnut Creek, Ohio in late July 2025 with 3 guy friends and 2 female friends. We drove down from Cleveland to visit sites in Amish Country (Millersburg and Berlin). We had just finished touring the Yoder Amish Homes property (over an hour tour in the heat) and after the fun tour we all were hungry for lunch. Der Dutchman came up on a Yelp search so we decided to visit. FOOD (see attached pics) -- Typical home cooking. Served buffet style. Reminds me of Hometown Buffet in Columbus but that restaurant doesn't exist anymore. The menu is large so you will definitely find something that you like. I got fried chicken, shredded beef, mashed potatoes, string green beans, and a side salad. I also got a second plate of food which I think was just another piece of chicken because guests can enjoy "all you can eat"; although, I didn't get too much food neither did I fill my plate up in my original serving. Plenty of options to choose from, including protein (chicken, fish, beef), salads, carbs (rice, mashed potatoes), and dessert. SERVICE -- friendly and efficient. The lunch time was busy but our waiter greeted us, brought water and bread rolls to our table and checked on our table during lunch. If you're visiting Amish country for the day like my friends and I did, then stop by Der Dutchman. It's a well talked about hometown favourite. All 6 of us enjoyed our time.

Dutch Valley restaurant is a meat and potatoes establishment that is either a buffet, or you can…read moreorder by menu. Today I went to Dutch Valley and had a nice scenic drive to Sugarcreek. I ordered the buffet and it was pretty good overall. I thought the food could have been a little hotter. However, the servers were nice and were very attentive to refilling my Pepsi. I recommend this Buffett for large gatherings, or to enjoy a peaceful home cooked like meal. The restaurant is super clean and they also have a bakery and store where you can buy different things. Outside of the restaurant, there's a concert hall and another gift shop. There's also the Carlisle inn which is a hotel onsite. This is also a good weekend trip, plus you are not that far from the other parts of Amish Country such as Walnut Creek, Berlin, and Millersburg.

During our visit yesterday, all of the hot buffet items were cold with the exception of the broasted chicken which was good, however it ran out for about 15 minutes as it was popular since again all the other hot entrees were cold. Additionally at least three of the buffet plates had residual food after washing. Our server was nice and attentive, however the cost wasn't worth it, given the food was cold. It's been at least a decade since I was last there and now I remember why. We should have just driven the extra 15 minutes to Walnut Creek.

As an older individual, she was SO attentive to every single table she had in her area. Making sure drinks were refilled, letting us know the wait time for our child's food to come out. She is truly where she needs to be and I hope the company + others see the value in her! Our food was typical Dutchman Hospitality Group food - tasted exactly like the Der Dutchman close to where we live. Not great, but not terrible. Everything was hot and edible. Our kiddo ordered sliders and said they were very good.

I started with a salad from the salad bar, and was really happy that the lettuces, eggs, broccoli, everything, was chopped into really small pieces. I really like a well chopped salad, even if it's silly. For my hot dishes, I had the broasted chicken, mashed potatoes, noodles, and a couple of bits of other things. The chicken was really moist with nice skin, and I enjoyed the noodles over the potatoes with some gravy. They had a lot of chicken available, and the pieces were really generous. There was at least one beef dish, and I also saw macaroni and cheese, which is not my first choice, but is popular. The restaurant offers a discount on pie with the buffet, but none of us wanted any more food! Overall, a good experience, and everyone was happy when we left.

When you walk in, the cafe has a small seating area to the right. The deli counter is right in front of you and the grocery section is to the left. The space is smaller than a lot of the other markets in the area, but it had all the staples (and then some - they even had a little section with toys). The deli had a selection of local meats and cheeses, there were many dry good, mixes (for things like muffins and soups), plenty of jams and jellies. The space is clean and the staff is friendly. If you are looking for a smaller place to do some shopping that isn't as chaotic as some of the larger markets, this is a great place.
