Das Dutchman Essenhaus - Famous Dining
Das Dutchman Essenhaus in Middlebury is a favorite of locals and tourists alike, which is why it is one of of the largest restaurants in Indiana. Authentic recipes handed down since 1971 are one of the reasons that it is so popular.
Eat traditional Amish Country favorites with over 30 varieties of made-from-scratch pies available for dessert (or a break during the day!).
There’s more to do than eat on the Essenhaus campus. The Village Shops and Inn and Conference Center allow you to make a day and night of it at Das Dutchman Essenhaus.
