Restaurant
The Barns at Nappanee offers a rustic retreat with comfortable lodging and a range of amenities, including a theater, outdoor pool, and dining options. Visitors can enjoy various restaurants on the historic site, such as the Farm Table restaurant featuring the famous Threshers Dinner and The Barns Steakhouse offering locally-raised Wagyu and Angus Beef. Additionally, guests can indulge in sweet treats at the Sweet Cream Cabin.
Beautiful venue for a rustic wedding or party. The Amish Acres restaurant provides lighting throughout (string lights), and you only need additional table decor. Food was pretty good - it would be a matter of opinion, really. The bean soup not so great, the fried chicken, beef & mashed potatoes were good, but I don't remember there being a fresh salad. Their homemade bread and apple butter were very good, but the apple cider burns your throat (too many preservatives and doesn't taste natural). The service was wonderful and helpful.

We are so happy we chose The Barns for our wedding venue! The food was AMAZING, the atmosphere incredible, and Stacey and her event team made magic! The whole process was seamless and Stacey was incredibly accommodating. Our day was a magical fairytale! The Barns has become such a special place for us. We can’t say thank you enough!

Best buffet/family style restaurant in the area. Food and service was good. A beautiful country atmosphere makes for a pleasant dining experience. Deserts were the best around. A very large room, makes wait times shorter. Plenty of parking.
Vince S — Google review
Had a very nice guide who was very knowledgeable about the original family and the Amish ways. We got a wagon ride and stopped by the old school house. Our guide told us about the old school and the Amish school of today. Then we got a buggy ride, I really enjoyed it. After the tour we stopped into the general store and purchased a few items. The large round barn was amazing. Great place to visit.

This was our first stop in Nappanee on the Heritage Trail. While we didn't get to see all of the property (aside from the restaurant in another review, which is amazing), we got a good enough taste that will be back to get the full experience. The shops that dot the property are charming and welcoming. We just had to pop our heads into the round performance theater. There wasnt a show going on, but the gentleman on staff volunteered to turn the lights on and see the performance space. It was beautiful. I don't think I've ever seen a structure hand crafted so beautifully. Our next visit will probably be an overnight experience.

Barns hosted Elcofest '23...what an event! If the burgers they made are representative of their menu, I'm coming back for sure! Best grilled burger from under a tent I can remember ever having.
Paul H — Google review
My husband and I bought their overnight getaway package which was including hotel stay, dinner, theater, house and farm tour etc. The Farm Feast dinner was very good. They gave you lots of foods and we were so full and took our desserts to go. However, the hotel that they provided was located near the railroads. Trains passed by multiple times per night. For a city girl like me trying to sleep was tough. We enjoyed the show in the Round Barn. Very cozy! We went there from Friday to Sunday and thought we would visit many stores/places. However, most stores in the town of Nappanee closed early around 5pm and closed all day on Sunday. That was a big disappointment for us. If we decided to visit there again, we will go there very early.

Food was good and a reasonable price. The workers were real nice. Enjoyed the icecream on a hot day, and the Elco fest car show outside was great. Highly recommend.

Performing arts theater
Concert hall
The Round Barn Theatre at the Barns at Nappanee is a professional regional theatre company in Nappanee, IN. They produce six theatrical productions annually, aiming to deliver world-class entertainment with timeless truths and uplifting themes. The theater is renowned for its Broadway-quality performances and has an exciting lineup including Big Fish, a Frank Sinatra musical revival, and The Mousetrap based on Agatha Christie's novel.
We had the meal and play option. The food was excellent, and we watched Oklahoma! Broasted chicken, pot roast, beef and noodles, mashed potatoes, veggies, rolls, dressing, and a slice of pie. I had a wonderful time, and I plan to go back. The stores had a lot of great things to purchase. The only drawback was that I wish the seats in the play house weren't so close together.

The show was good but they had 4 boxes as pope's. I have seen a lot better shows. Actors was all good but one. She didn't seem to know what she was doing. We have seen other shows there but this one was a not good one. No new back drops. Just 4 boxes. At $100
Dreama R — Google review
The actors were fantastic! The staff was fantastic, kind and pleasing! The area was scenic & very pretty. Could be a great place to hold weddings. However the seats in the theater were uncomfortable and nothing for our hands so they just hang there for two and a half hours very uncomfortable. I really really want to go back but I don't know if I will because of this. The pads that they have on the seats look like they have not been washed in a very very long time. At $50 per ticket honestly they shouldn't have any issues buying new seats.

Saw "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". Excellent time. Cast was excellent! Comfortable, easy to get to seats in a very nice and unique setting.

First time here and was a good experience. Went with a group of 8 people so tickets were discounted. Picked up tickets at will call and the person there was helpful. When walked inside seating area was shown where seats were. The people who sat on the end moved to seats behind us as they couldn't see the whole stage and actors were moving all over so seats on far left up front aren't the best place to sit. For the 3 hours the play went on the seats weren't comfortable enough.

This was my first comedy show, and it was clean. I laughed so hard I don't think I've ever laughed so hard or so much ever. I won 2 tickets on WFRN, so I took my husband of 20 years on our first date that wasn't a restaurant. We both had a blast.

Round barn theatre was beyond amazing 11/28 matinee performance! So upbeat, and uplifting. I will be a repeat audience member on future performances. We also did thrashers dinner at The Barns adjacent to the Round Barn Theatre. Dinner was NOT so good! Chicken overcooked and dried out, slices of ham were like jerky. Potatoes tasted straight from a box. Mixed drinks were not worth asking for seconds. I suggest not purchasing the dinner package, but the theatre tickets were well worth it!

Ruhe 152 is a vibrant bistro, brewery, and distillery nestled in the heart of Nappanee, Indiana. The establishment offers an array of delectable dishes such as smoked cheddar and pulled pork from Culinary Mill and heavenly ice cream from Rocket Science Ice Cream. Additionally, visitors can relish craft beer brewed on-site and delightful cocktails. The venue's architecture exudes a unique charm that stands out in the small Midwestern town.
This place was amazing! The staff was helpful and so kind! Our server,Alex, was incredible! The food was delicious and the atmosphere was upscale. Can't decide which was best. We had a lovely time for our 7th anniversary and we weren't paying attention to prices since it was a special occasion. We just ordered whatever we wanted and still the price was less than expected. Would definitely recommended to anyone in the area.

Very nice seating area, very good staff. Our family went in with high hopes and it came close to meeting the them. The food was good, bread, spaghetti were all good. They didn’t offer to bring more bread out, which was interesting. Nonetheless, the lasagna and spaghetti were solid, the fettuccine probably should be reviewed again as it was pretty underwhelming. All of this to say though that they’ve done a great job with the interior and could likely see it having a great atmosphere, especially with live music on a weekend night.

We were on a road trip to a memorial service in Indiana and we were so happy we chose Ruhe for dinner the night before. The service, food and drinks were excellent. It was the perfect place to relax. The atmosphere is very laid back, but fairly classy. Our server was super friendly. Definitely recommend!

I went with a couple of girlfriends and we had a fabulous time! Our waitress was very professional and joked around with us but wasn't intrusive. I could see that the other waitstaff worked well together and helped each other out. It made for a very positive vibe and experience. Our food was excellent and we loved our desserts ❣️ We went on a weeknight and it wasn't too crowded and it definitely wasn't noisy. I noticed there was cool outdoor seating in the alleyway and it is completely in the shade and not super breezy. I will look forward to going back and trying some other dishes.
Kristin S — Google review
I find it amazing how people will walk in and see empty tables and assume anything else but that they're reserved when turned away. They will seat you without a reservation if they have that slot open. So all the one star reviews are pretty stupid in my opinion, but I digress. We got in without a reservation. The food was good but slightly underwhelming. The ciabatta bread they give you is actually quite good. I got the lasagna with some extra meatballs which turned out to be pretty good though not exceptional. I had the tiramasu for dessert which was fantastic. I would very much recommend that. All said it was a fine experience, the waitress was nice and payed a lot of attention to make sure our glasses were filled and everything to our satisfaction, the atmosphere was great, and the food came out in good time I thought. Anyway, one thing I think they need to do is add a few more entrées to the menu. I would like to see maybe some personal pizzas of some kind and maybe some Alfredo. Still, this is a solid place to eat.

Main Street Roasters is a popular spot in town, offering a variety of freshly brewed coffee, delicious pastries, and sandwiches. The place has a pleasant atmosphere and is frequented by a mix of locals and visitors, including Amish and English communities, families, students, and couples. While it can get busy at times, the patient and friendly staff make the experience enjoyable. The cafe also boasts an excellent rewards program for regular customers.
Main Street is my favorite coffee shop to date whether it’s going with family, friends or alone. My coffee is always perfect and I’ve never been disappointed. The menu variety is incredible as well. The atmosphere is warm and inviting whether you’re working or with you family, there’s room for it all. I love the Alli Cat cafe for my little one. My only complaint/suggestion is that a changing table be added to the restroom! It would make the experience that much better!

It's a nice coffee shop with a great atmosphere, but I do wish they kept it cleaner. The tables are hardly ever wiped and there's often food on the floor around the tables. I wish it was cleaned regularly. Also, they have nice music playing but you can also hear separate music coming from the kitchen so if you are trying to work it's off-putting to hear 2 different songs.

I’ve been here several times over the years and I’ve always been impressed! They have very reasonable prices and great coffee. The food is good as well. Last time I was there I got a frittata, very delicious. There’s lots of room to sit, visit, or get work done.

I recently visited Main Street Roasters in Nappanee, Indiana, and it was an absolutely amazing experience! From the moment I walked into the cozy, inviting coffee shop at 105 N Main St, I was greeted by the warm aroma of freshly roasted coffee and a friendly staff that made me feel right at home. The atmosphere is perfect—charming, with eclectic decor, plenty of natural light, and a variety of seating options, including a cozy loft and a kid’s play area that’s great for families. The coffee was outstanding. I tried their Highlander Grogg, and the rich, buttery flavor with a hint of caramel was divine. My friend ordered the Main Street Blend, and we both agreed it was some of the best coffee we’ve had in Indiana. They roast their beans on-site, and you can taste the quality in every sip. The menu also impressed with delicious pastries (the raspberry scone was a highlight!) and hearty lunch options like the chicken pesto flatbread and white chicken chili, which were fresh and flavorful. The service was top-notch—quick, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. It’s clear this family-owned gem, established in 2003, is a community hub. Whether you’re grabbing a quick coffee to-go or settling in for a relaxing afternoon, Main Street Roasters delivers an exceptional experience. I’m already looking forward to my next visit and highly recommend it to anyone passing through Nappanee!

The atmosphere of this place is super unique. It’s a huge coffee shop with lots of places to sit and enjoy your coffee and time with friends and family. I have been to an event there and it was so well run, organized, delicious food served hot. It was just perfect. I’ve also ordered beans online and those were amazing and delicious. Can’t say enough great things about this place! Wish I lived closer.

I do like Main Street Roasters but it's not what it once was. The prices have become outrageous. They have a points program but it's never working and it changes and I continue to lose points. The manager pretty much called me a liar when I told her I had signed up for their program and entered my birthday but she said I didn't. I have been supporting them for years but will not longer go out of my way to buy their coffee. I'm bummed.

Coppes Commons, a renovated factory in an Amish town, is now home to a diverse array of specialty shops offering locally-made and handcrafted items. Visitors can witness the creation of ice cream treats using liquid nitrogen, sample gourmet popcorn flavors, and savor hot pretzels made from a secret Amish recipe. Culinary Mill offers smoked cheddar and pulled pork while Rocket Science Ice Cream serves up creamy delights. Main Street Roasters provides freshly brewed coffee and pastries.
Coppes Commons is hands-down one of my favorite spots to visit! Although it’s a bit of a drive from Mishawaka, it’s always worth the trip. Each visit feels like discovering a hidden gem, and I find myself looking forward to exploring something new every time. One of the absolute highlights is the mini Amish grocery store – it has everything you can think of, and the prices are really reasonable, which makes it hard to resist picking up a few things (or a lot!). Another must-visit is the popcorn shop; their selection of flavors is incredible, and every batch tastes freshly made and delicious. While I’m always drawn to the aesthetic of the coffee shop, I’ll admit the coffee could use a bit more love in terms of taste. But that’s a small trade-off for the friendly atmosphere and beautiful decor – not to mention the breathtaking outdoor area, where you can relax and take in the gorgeous views. The entire space has such a warm and inviting vibe, and the people working there are always friendly and welcoming. If you’re looking for a spot to hang out, shop small, and soak in some beauty, you have to check out Coppes Commons! Trust me, this place is a gem.

Rocket Science Ice Cream in Nappanee is a delightful destination for ice cream lovers of all ages. Nestled within the charming Coppes Commons, this unique spot offers an exciting experience as visitors can watch their ice cream being made with liquid nitrogen right before their eyes. The creativity behind the flavors is truly impressive, allowing guests to either choose from popular combinations or invent their own. With generous portions that often overflow, it's no wonder that families and kids alike are drawn to this fun-filled treat stop.
Such a great place to enjoy! They even stayed open a bit past closing time as our show didn't get out soon enough for us to get over before 5pm. The workers were so sweet and kind and while our party was well aware we were being served past closing hours, we were never made to feel rushed or that business was a bother. Thank you Rocket Science Creamery for going above and beyond! I will be bringing my four boys and telling everyone about you.

"El Cielito Lindo" is a popular Mexican restaurant known for its delicious food and great service. While some customers have mentioned that the environment can be a bit dirty and the service inconsistent on certain nights, many still frequent the place regularly due to the tasty and well-presented dishes. The fajita nachos are highly recommended, along with other menu items like chicken chimichangas and steak and chicken salad.

This restaurant gets a four star review simply because of the environment and service. I have no complaints about the food. It is very tasty and well presented.

They served me the VERY worst nachos I've ever had. I was in Nappanee getting work done on my motorhome. It was my birthday and so I thought I'd treat myself to a genuine Mexican meal. I ordered their Nachos Supreme as an appetizer. The bottom of the platter was cover in 1/4" of a watery liquid. I couldn't find any cheese. The beef was ground beef that had been browned on the stove but still in larger chunks and didn't have a lot of taste. The chicken was pulled apart into medium sized pieces and wasn't bad. The chips had soaked up so much fluid from the bottom of the platter that I had to use dry chips (to scoop stuff up) from the basket that was brought to the table when I sat down. No refried beans. No sour cream. I hate to say it but Taco Bell's Nacho Supreme are far superior these "authentic" nachos. Another couple having their motorhome worked on went there too on another night. They said that both of their meals were horrible. Yet, a third couple had a wonderful meal there. I only visit Nappanee once a year and I will go to other restaurants for a nice meal, not this alleged Mexican restaurant.

A good Mexican food dining experience. Like most small time Mexican style food restaurants, they usually offer similar dishes and prices, which in this case was good. Staff are good as well, patient and kind. The food came out pretty quick, considering I was with family, which totaled to 6 of us. Food quality was alright, really greasy, but I can't complain, I'm no Gordon Ramsey, but food tasted alright. Great experience if you're in the Mexican cuisine mood in the area.

Under new ownership, Perfect Twist Pretzels has seen a significant improvement in the quality and consistency of their pretzels. Their hours are also conveniently accommodating.

The atmosphere is pleasant, making it a great place to stop by for a tasty pretzel experience.

This cute little shop is conveniently located in Coppes Commons. The employees are all friendly and helpful. They have pretzels and pretzel pockets, so they can be good for a meal, a snack, or dessert. It has a cozy atmosphere with nice decor. Their prices are great too!

Chinese restaurant
Nestled in the heart of Nappanee, Nang's Chinese Restaurant is a beloved local gem that has been serving up authentic Chinese cuisine for years. Known for its fresh and flavorful dishes, this carryout-only spot offers a delightful array of entrees, sides, and combo plates that keep patrons coming back time after time. Many visitors make it their first stop upon arriving in town or their last before heading out, ensuring they savor every bite of the delicious offerings.
Good authentic food and very friendly staff, always cater to adjusting the ingredients when possible if you like things made a certain way. Can't rate the atmosphere because it's take out only no dine in, so not fair to give a rating. They are always quick to have it ready, have affordable pricing for the portions! Only suggestion I could make is being able to take credit cards, they are cash only, but at the same time I totally understand because cc processing fees are extremely expensive. Overall I love it and frequently get food here 🤎

We ordered shrimp fried rice & received chicken fried rice. Chicken was tough. Ordered sweat & sour chicken that was over cooked & tasted like mcdonald's nuggets. I gave up and made toast. Hubby ordered général tso & he said its very bland..no spices. We both agree one of worst places we've tried all over the country. Save your money & go somewhere else. Very disappointing.

First time there! Got take out and the food did not disappoint! Best Chinese food I have had since original Bounthanhs! Rangoons and Sweet and Sour Chicken Meal were delicious!!
Lisa B — Google review
Cash only. Small portions. my $12 ($16 with atm fee from the place next door) dinner combo had six pieces of chicken that weren't even crispy and the veggies were mostly onion. The crab Rangoon was very tough also. I ordered takeout and had to ask for a lid for my drink and had to walk back in because they didn't include any plasticware.
W — Google review
Customer service was fine. It was easy to order and the young lady who answered the phone was pleasant to talk to. The food was mediocre. . I bought food for 3 people. The bill was $77. I expected fantastic food and was beyond disappointed. The crab rangoon was bland and over cooked/fried. The egg rolls were tasteless. The egg drop soop was pretty good but the portion size wasn't worth the price. The main dish portions, which I asked how many people can be fed with a full order and was told two, were very small. The sweet and sour chicken: the chunks of chicken were too big and the breading didn't stay on. The vegetables were a bit hard/raw. General Tso's chicken would be good if it has some spice. The beef and broccoli could have had a bit more gravy but overall it was just okay. I was trying to stay close to home to get Chinese but in the future I'll just make the longer trip to get a better meal at a cheaper price.
Dawn S — Google review
Ordered 2 sweet and sour chicken combo $29.66. came with fried rice, 2egg rolls and a "sample" of egg drop soup. I mean literally a couple of tablespoons of soup. I have never had sweet and sour chicken drenched in the sauce, you always have the sauce in a separate bowl. So the chicken was soggy drenched in more sauce then we would have ever used. First time buying from here, no need to go back.
Darlene M — Google review
Ordered half order, General Tao’s Chicken, extra spicy. Received an extremely bland dish that, by volume, was literally nearly 1/2 onions. No peppers, pieces, or even flakes in sight. Had high hopes but was very disappointed. My plain white rice was the best part. Very nice service, good portion size , quick turn-around. Would happily have waited another 10-15 minutes for more robust, satisfying flavor in exchange for driving to make the pick-up.
R H — Google review
Never had their food, but was told it's great. I ordered general tso $12.00 meal and get 6 pieces of chicken rest were veggies. I asked for no onions and it's filled with onions. The portion was very small especially for $12.00. The chicken was as soggy as it gets. The rice was so fried it was burnt. First and last time I go here. Definitely not worth the money. And to those that gave this a good rating. Clearly hasn't experienced many Chinese places to think this food was good.

Northeast side of town
For day 2, we recommend exploring the northeast side side of town. Start the day off with McCormick Creek Golf Course, then wind down and take it easy by the time you get to Nappanee Theatre. All together, your day would be filled with about 8 hours of non-stop fun.

Golf course
Golf driving range
McCormick Creek Golf Course is a well-maintained municipal par-72 course with varying tee distances suitable for different skill levels. The course features water hazards on nearly every hole and is surrounded by neighborhoods, bike paths, and a park. It's known for its inclusive atmosphere, welcoming both kids and seniors. The staff is accommodating and non-judgmental, making it an ideal place for golfers of all abilities.
I played here for a golf outing so I don't know the greens fee since it was included in the overall total for the outing. But with that being said i had a great time. The course was in great shape. The fairways are great as are the greens. The par 3's were real challenging, I think we only birdied one. Overall it's a real nice course. If I lived closer I'd totally play here often. (I live 2hrs from this course.)

I was there for my first time last year and I'll be going back again in two days to play in a charity tournament. The course was challenging for me, especially being my first visit 😁. The greens were really fast and lots of undulations. Hopefully I can improve on my puttings this time around. Wonderful public golf course with a beautiful driving range as well. Cannot wait to go back and play ⛳ again!

This is a beautiful course in a friendly small city. Very well cared for and accessible. McCormick Creek is an 18-hole, par-72 and features water hazards on nearly every hole and lots of trees. There are neighborhoods bike paths and park that border most of the course. A very inclusive course that you will find both kids and seniors on. The pro is top notch.

Golfed here twice so far this year. Both time have been great. I bring along my nefew who is a little special needs and still learning to golf. The staff is always great. Never any judgement.

Really enjoyed my round at McCormick Golf Course. The course was in pretty good shape overall, greens were a little worn in spots, but they still rolled very nicely. The layout is fun, with a good mix of holes that keep things interesting without being overly tough. It’s the kind of course where you can relax and still feel like you’re getting a solid game in. Staff was friendly, and the pace of play was surprisingly smooth for a weekend. Not perfect, but definitely a course I’d come back to. It’s a solid spot for a laid-back round with great views.

While the basketball area is currently undergoing repairs and upgrades, visitors can still enjoy outdoor pickleball courts, a playground called 'Little Paws' for children, well-maintained softball fields, a swimming pool, and a skateboard park. The park also features a golf course and a designated dog walking area at the northeast end of the golf course.
Just wonderful as always. Our dog enjoyed his walk and he loved watching one of the baseball games and he stood a good while watching a guy swimming in the pool. The life guard loved she got to see our boy. Beautiful night to be there!!!

Really large park has a playground that is fenced in. Also on the property baseball field .It has a picnic table and restrooms .... Update the pool is temporarily closed they took out the skateboard park they took out the water fountains for drinking. We are disappointed that the skateboard park was removed without any notice and know one knows if the pool will open back up there is not much to do around here and now there's even less we use to go here a lot but not this year the playground is in need of repairs the tire swings need replaced the wood is missing in many places the wood chips are old and growing mushrooms needless to say it is old run down and weathered and words can't express how we fill about having no SKATEBOARD park 😠😥🤯

Currently under some repairs and upgrades in the Basketball area, yet there are many other things to do at Stauffer Park. There is a Playground for children called "Little Paws", there are several Softball fields that are in great condition, as well as a Swimming Pool and a Skateboard Park! Golfing is on premises, along with a Dog Walking area at the North East end of the Golf Course. Parking is free, and offers area for picnic and restroom access.

Neat museum located on the second floor of the Coppes Commons shopping mall. There are lots of old cabinets with some descriptions of their backstory and old ads about all the features — I found it was an amusing parallel to ads these days for features in tech gadgets or software like smart phones. There were a number of things that weren’t cabinets like a very old computer, a punchcard time clock, cooking appliances, and wood working tools.

We used Culinary Mills for our wedding caterer, and they did amazing! The food was delicious (we had pulled pork, red potatoes, green beans, salad and bread rolls- all of it tasted fantastic) and the servers made sure everything was cleaned up in the kitchen afterward.

A refrigerated section houses dairy products and large take-n-bake pizzas, too. And this is just some of what they offer.

Movie theater
Nappanee Theatre is a charming old theater that exudes nostalgia, transporting visitors back to the 60s. Despite not being a big fancy name theater, it offers unbeatable prices with tickets at $5 and reasonably priced popcorn and drinks. The owners are known for their friendliness, making it a great place for an affordable and enjoyable movie experience.
Just took my two youngest sons to see Paddington in Peru. My first time in about 10 years, their first time ever. The price for a ticket are unheard of anymore and concessions won't require a second mortgage. That isn't the best part in my opinion, it's the history and absolute character this theatre still gives to patrons. A true hidden gem in a world full of fake gems.

Hunters Hideaway Inc is a cozy bar and grill where visitors can enjoy a delightful meal in a welcoming atmosphere.

The overall experience at Hunters Hideaway Inc is highly praised, making it a place worth revisiting for its great food and friendly ambiance.
Food was great. The sirloin required zero salt or steak sauce. It was seasoned wonderfully. I was quite impressed with the steak. The French Onion soup was delicious. Prices were reasonable, considering the sirloin was 10oz. and served with two sides. Service was also great. Very pleased However... I didn't like the fact that the croutons are deep fried. So if you're ordering salad, please be advised the croutons are not a good option. (Just to be clear, baked or toasted croutons last longer any way..) And if you're going for "flavor".., then season them prior to toasting.. Absolutely no need to dunk them in grease and oil, other than pure laziness. It's only a little bit of preparation that will make a world of difference..

We had been here before a few years ago and loved the chicken gizzards. They are still good but we tried the smash burger and ribeye tonight. The ribeye was thin but done appropriately and flavorful. The smash burger was not a smash burger - it was a regular burger not caramelized and crispy the way a smash burger should be. The meat was brown/gray - this is not a smash burger. Additionally I asked for more blue cheese dressing for the salad that comes with. I got sour cream. You know what I mean - it takes a bite to realize I have smothered my salad with sour cream. The waitress was too busy talking to what looked like the manager and another server to really care about what we needed and it took a while to get her attention so that I could ask for a real blue cheese dressing serving. She then responded - sorry I’ll have them get you some. I hate to ask again for another beer - they go fast sometimes- and again it takes a while for her to stop talking to her compatriots to get a beer. I did not complain about this, the sour cream, or the supposed smash burger. We tipped 20% and said thank you very much. But I will not be back there.

I was in the area for business and thought I'd give it a try. Glad I did ! I was there around 3 pm and it was BUSY ! It has very clean, yet sports like bar vibes, and a really neat interior.

All I wanted was a large frie and a double bacon burger I requested it to only have bacon, ketchup, and cheese. Once I got home to eat I found that my fries were freezing cold, my burger had lettuce, flamethrower sauce, tomato, and no CHEESE. FINALLY, I asked for a refund and they refused because they were about to close.

Unfortunately in order to leave a review you have to leave a star. We decided to stop here for dinner after a long day at work. I placed the order and then asked to add a small cotton candy blizzard before I left the ordering speaker. The girl was very sweet and added it. I pulled up the window and paid the bill but and she was getting the order around the child working the "microwave" the one MICROWAVING my burger said you should throw that blizzard ar her. The sweet girl looked mortified as she said Travis my windows open. He begins to laugh and then looks at me as I say yeah Travis maybe you should. The sweet girl hands me my order and I leave. The next day I called to speak with the district manager who I'm told is on vacation in Hawaii and he probably won't call me back anyways. And 3 weeks later and 3 phone calls he still hasn't. Trips to Hawaii on microwaved burgers and I can't even get a phone call.

My friend had a misunderstanding with an employee regarding her son’s birthday cake, and I’m deeply grateful to Tina for the way she stepped in with compassion and professionalism. She took the time to listen, offered reassurance, and ensured we felt heard and supported. Tina kindly invited us to return later in the day to experience the full birthday cake presentation, and she thoughtfully recommended Emily to personalize the cake with her creative touches. What could have been a disappointing experience turned into a meaningful one—thanks to the kindness, attentiveness, and teamwork of Tina, Emily, and the entire Dairy Queen staff. Thank you all for going above and beyond to make a child’s birthday special.

Never in my life have I seen such disrespectful staff. They were not disrespectful to customers but to each other. Even in the farthest corner of the building I can hear cussing from the kitchen. I constantly hear screaming and don’t even get started on the way they treat their possibly minor staff. One day I came in to see a sweet girl being body shamed by a manager. At one point I heard him remark about her needing a workout and to “loose a couple pounds” never in my life will I go back and support that place with such blatant disrespect.

I took my grandchildren out for ice cream and expected a regular visit! An ADULT male was making extreme comments (seemingly towards a younger girl) and his vocabulary was full of swear words. My cone was extremely runny and the workers were extremely vulgar and unkind to one another.

I was struggling with the Subway app, and my orders weren't going through. But Troy and Trista were fabulous at helping me fill my large order. They are efficient and friendly and super helpful!

Worst place ever!! I ordered a salad online. My daughter picked it up…I got the meat only. Menu said it had lettuce, cheese, green pepper, etc..I called & was told I have to add salad items, even though the menu said it was a SALAD 🥗. Then he got mad when I questioned him, he hung up on me & refused to answer the phone afterward!!! He could have at least given me what I paid for. I will never order or go back.

Only one person making sandwiches took by time rung out cold very slow service not impressed 45 min. To make sandwiches cold by the time we got them staff was not very motivated

Staff is usually pretty good. My biggest complaint is that they can't seem to keep the toaster going. Not their fault. Management needs to get a new one. Many Subways I've been to have two.

My first choose for subway is normal here but recently I have done this two different time used the app to order to do the buy one get one half off. Both times now they have messed up the online orders it’s a let down. The first time I called and they did fix it but this time it’s not worth even calling because I am absolutely not driving back over to even explain it again 🙁 outside of that it’s very clean and the people are sooo friendly! Just don’t order online.

This Subway was the best Subway restaurant that I have been to. It was clean, the service was quick and friendly, and they put more stuff on their sandwiches here then they do at other locations. I will definitely add this to my regular dinning stops.

Milford Subway was very good. We bought a foot long veggie. The workers were very helpful about our options. I am VERY allergic to cucumber so they put a few (for half) in a cup so they wouldn't touch my half. Thank you!!

I like to give credit where credit is due. I was In there today about 130 and it was at least 10 people deep. And only two girls out front working .I was Kinda worried and thought about going elsewhere but I decided to stay. I was Out the door in ten minutes with a good quality , tasty sandwich ! It woulda took McDonalds a half hour to serve ten people with quadruple the staff.

Ordered delivery.. arrived within an hour. One of the only places that delivers out here. It was nice to have that. Thank you for offering that as a service. The Pizza was hot. Delivery driver was nice. Ordering was easy. Can’t complain about that. However, It’s on the pricier side. Around $30 for 1 pizza with delivery and it was pretty flavorless. I asked for a thin crust pepperoni and definitely did not receive that. The crust is very thick. Disappointed because I didn’t want regular thick crust pizza, and I wasn’t able to eat more than a piece. :/ There was at most 10 pieces of pepperoni on the large. Lacking sauce and cheese as well. (Looks like there is ton, but it’s just the thick crust making it look like that.) Don’t know if I would ever try this place again. Will opt for little ceasers, papa john’s, pizza hut, dominos, ect. instead. Edit: SOME of the pieces were thin crust. My apologies. About less than half was thin. Just seems it was not rolled out very even.

Tuesday through Thursday you can get two slices of pizza(the slices are huge) and a fountain drink for $11.00 until 2:00pm! Also love their panther Stix, and Philly cheese steak!

I ordered a pizza, sandwich, and spaghetti online at 4:57pm. They gave no estimate on when it would be ready, so I waited to pick it up until 5:40pm. At first they couldn't find my order online. Once they found it, my pizza was done, but the rest wasn't. 15 mins, they said. Okay... I'll go wait in my car. I went back inside after 15 mins (plenty long enough to make pasta and a sandwich) and it still wasn't ready. "Give us another 10 mins". This is ridiculous. I will not be ordering from them again. Also, the restaurant is filled with smoke from the oven. It's terrible! You can see it in the air. I can't believe they work in that environment and expect customers to sit and eat in it.

Ordered here because they offer 2 separare halves on one pizza. Pizza was delivered hot and loaded with cheese and toppings, which is a welcome change. Definitely our new favorite local pizza place.

Updated review: 5 stars moved to 1 and will NOT BE RETURNING! I ordered a small cheese pizza, extra cheese with a side of banana pepers. Total came to $22.54. The pizza was uneven and very little cheese, as seen in the pictures. Looked like a high school kid made it and didn't care! The peppers were put ON the pizza in a cup, so there was an indent of a cup on the pizza. Crust was hard, like homemade play dough that went dry. Used to be great but now the worst pizza ever. Old review: Really good! I have been looking for decent pizza in the area and this place is probably my new "go-to" spot. Its smaller than I figured, and parking is hard to come by, but we'll be back. Had a medium "Panther" pizza, mozzarella sticks and Panther bites and all was tasty. Filled us up very quick!

Cold, doughy, floppy. Has potential but it was cold and not done underneath. I had to put it back in my oven at home. You can see the wet raw side view
