"Known for their pies and sticky buns. However my favorite item was the apple dumpling. 1) Apple dumpling 2) Peach pie 3) blueberry pie 4) pecan sticky bun (Heat up the pecan sticky bun at home. The pecans are better roasted.) 5) unsweeted cherry pie (only if you like cherries) Grabbed one pie for less than $10. All natural, no preservatives."

"I often have big orders of bread for different occasions! I order the day before to make sure its done fresh for what i need! Altho they always have fresh bake goods in stock but if you want lets say more than 4 dozen you probably want to call in an order the day before cause their stuff sells fast and theres no guarantee you’ll be able to get yours unless you ordered it and they have it ready in the back for you! Super nice and friendly costumer service and their bread is always top notch. Around Lancaster area, You know its gonna be a good meal when you have bird and hand bake shop make your dinner rolls (sausage rolls etc! ) for dinner! ☺️"

"Had the pretzel breakfast sandwich, quite good, hot and fresh. Coffee was also quite good. They sell quite a lot of fresh bakery items and gourmet canned foods and condiments. They have a good selection of fresh ice cream, cones and cups. This is a really nice Amish spot with picnic tables and farm animals around, great spot for kids."
