Off-Site Catering {PLAIN CITY}

For more than 20 years, the quality and goodness known to Central Ohio as Der Dutchman Restaurant has attracted patrons from far and wide. But you don’t have to travel to Plain City to experience the simple pleasures of our authentic Amish Kitchen Cooking. We also offer full-service catering that delivers our delicious, made-from-scratch food directly to your business event, wedding reception, or special occasion, along with exceptional value and attentive service.

Crowd-pleasing flavors

What makes the Der Dutchman catering experience so special? For starters, you can taste the tradition. The cooks in our kitchen use time-honored methods to create exactly the kind of simple, flavorful foods that lend themselves to feeding and satisfying a crowd.

Specially seasoned, all-natural meats roasted, broasted, and slow-cooked to tender perfection and served piping hot. Plates piled high with savory, made-from-scratch side dishes, like classic bread stuffing, real mashed potatoes and gravy, or homemade egg noodles. Slow-simmered soups, garden-fresh salads, and sandwiches made with just-baked breads and rolls. And there’s always a selection of our famous homemade pies and pastries, for a sweet finish from the Der Dutchman Bakery.

Options for every occasion

Our catering menu offers abundant options for bringing the delicious Der Dutchman experience to events of all types and sizes, day or night. The selection ranges from tasty appetizer platters and cheese trays to hearty boxed lunches, family-style meals, and, of course, our country buffets for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Our special wedding package presents a choice of menus perfect for sharing with family and friends on this joyous occasion.

Whatever the event, our trained servers are there to set up the food table, assist during the meal, and take care of the details so the hosts can relax and enjoy the event knowing every guest is well taken care of.
