Had the Haystack Salad. Generous portions lettuce, chopped tomatoes, ground beef, chips, and cheese over perfectly cooked rice. Mint tea was very pleasantly flavored.
I used to really love this place, but lately…the friendliness factor is greatly lacking. I love supporting small businesses, but I do not like to feel like I’m inconveniencing someone by choosing to spend my dollars there. Plenty of other choices in town.
My husband and I were in the area for a fun weekend getaway. We drove past this commons building/indoor mall and had to check it out. It was so cute and quaint with shops ranging from antiques to fashion, purses, jewelry, even some gorgeous live slabs of different trees to make into tables, etc. The one place that o can't say enough about is the Nappanee bakery within the building. Everything looked fresh and yummy. I ended up buying a loaf of white and wheat bread along with a dozen yeast rolls. Let me tell you that those rolls and bread was the most delicious fresh tasting bread I have ever eaten. I just wish I could order it and have it shipped. Now if you are a person that prefers light and airy bread, then this is not for you. But, if you like a nice heavy heart bread then you will not be disappointed. Enjoy its truly fantastic. I'm literally driving up there, around 1 1/2 hrs one way this weekend just to get more. Yes I froze the rolls and when I need them I thawed them and still turned out fantastic
I was coordinating food for a funeral dinner and Marilyn and the rest of the staff at Nappanee Bakery were extremely helpful and kind, making the process very easy. Not to mention that the food was delicious!
