Very short walk to this iconic restaurant featured on TV's Diners n Dives. Get the spiral fries. Get pie. Get a reuben or a chef salad or try something different: turtle soup. Great for ice cream. Yummy burgers. Proprietors are from Philly, so you can trust the Philly Steak Sandwich too.

Pretzels. You want 'em? Goshen's got 'em. Jojo's has a gluten-free pretzel and a bunch of different mustard options. The original restaurant in Shipshewana is in the heart of Amish country, and you won't do well enough to expand from there if you don't have a great pretzel. Which like I always say, they do.

Because Goshenites line up to wait a half-hour here on summer weekends. It's seasonal, but super creamy and beloved by all locals. No indoor seating, just old-school windows with magic inside them.

Not just pizza, its wood-fired and certified Neapolitan or whatever. Because I'm gluten free we never have gone, but all our friends say it's amazing. You might want to look it up.

Parks & Nature
Want to go out for a walk, jog, run or bike? We're just a few blocks from the Millrace trail which runs from the farmer's market in downtown Goshen all the way down to the dam, near Goshen College. It's pretty and quiet. Not hilly. There are several routes you can take, so you can get a long walk or a short one in, and arrive right back at our place.

Shopping
Out of the way, lots of shops and restaurants, including the Trolley Inn and Rolling Scones. If you were looking for a coffee shop and the Electric Brew felt too busy, head to Rolling Scones for a quiet conversation. Their service is great, and there's always something to look at in this historic factory.
