I’ve been hearing about Good N Plenty for a few years now. Some friends visit the Amish Country every year and this family style restaurant is always on their to-do list. We were in Lancaster this week and decided to check it out.
BOY am I glad we did!
For around $60, this family of four ate a FULL meal including drinks and dessert. Not a bad deal!!! You start off with FRESH bread, cole slaw, apple sauce, tomatoes and more. My husband couldn’t get enough of the apple butter – although my children wouldn’t give it a second look.
You have a choice of unsweetened tea, water or lemonade. Coffee is also an option. No soda or anything diet is offered.
Then comes your meal. And when I tell you it was the best fried chicken I ever had… I’m NOT KIDDING. Good N Plenty was out of control delicious. There were three main dishes to choose from during our seating – fried chicken, beef stroganoff, and some sort of port cutlet. OH BOY!
There were also a variety of sides as well including everything from mashed potatoes and gravy, to corn to noodles to fresh veggies.
Plates are limitless too. They just keep refilling!
And it doesn’t end there either. You have about 5 desserts to choose from. I opted for blueberry cobbler and cherry cheesecake. You could have all 5 if you like. No one is keeping score. The kids enjoyed fresh ice cream. We were all happy – happy.
There’s one thing about Good N Plenty in Lancaster I should point out though. It’s family style and the tables seat about 12. So, if you don’t have a big enough crowd… you are sharing your food with other people that you don’t know. We happened to have a nice table – but some might not like this notion. Just wanted to give you the heads up!!!
So, are you visiting the Amish Country anytime soon? Be sure to visit Good N Plenty Family Style Restaurant and… GO HUNGRY!
