Settling into a cozy booth at Boyd and Wurthmann Restaurant, I had worked up an appetite while shopping the local boutiques and waiting in line for twenty minutes for breakfast, but I knew it would be worth the wait since this is “where the locals eat”.

Before there was Boyd and Wurthmann, there was Hummel’s Market which operated from 1938 to 1945.  The market was purchased by Herman Wurthmann and Dayle Boyd and the converted the market into a restaurant in the 1950s specializing in Amish-style home cooking.

Browsing the menu, there was an endless selection of home cooked meals. From traditional breakfasts to meatloaf and mashed potatoes, it was possible I could spend another twenty minutes making my decision.

While I should have ordered a saIad, I finally selected the bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich on homemade bread and a side of thick cut, deep-fried onion rings.  Within minutes, my meal appeared and I couldn’t wait to bite into my perfectly prepared sandwich.

Boyd and Wurthmann lives up to its reputation of serving delicious, traditional meals for over 75 years, and you will want to save room for one of their 15 to 20  homemade, freshly-baked pies.   But don’t take my word for it.  You should visit this amazing Amish restaurant in the heart of Berlin, Ohio and bring cash because they don’t accept credit or debit cards.

Thank you for reading about my visit to Boyd and Wurthmann’s in Ohio’s Amish community and wishing you many Happy Travels!
