The Bread Bowl Restaurant & Bakery

Stop in every time we are. In the neighborhood. Always enjoy the small town atmosphere and good food.

I'm from Kansas City about an hour and a half from hiawatha Ks. I was near by for work, driving around looking for place to have lunch, this place caught my eye and I fell in love with it when I walked in. I got the potato soup in a bread bowl with half a chicken guacamole wrap. It was SOOO GOOD. I'll definitely come here again plus it was affordable not to mention It's so cute in an anesthetic way. I can't get over it, the decor reminds me of west port kcmo. I also Spoke to the owner, he said everything is the real deal, the place was made from old barn parts.Anyways this place is great 10/10

We stopped for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The Club Sandwich was generously stuffed with meats and cheeses (big enough to share); we had the Broccoli Salad as a side and it was tangy and sweet. Hubby had the Deli Wrap sandwich which was huge and delicious. He chose the fruit cup as his side; also yummy. When we paid our check at the counter, there were cookies for sale, pies to take home, and even pre-packaged meals. Pretty cool! The building and decor are farm chic; rustic and quaint. Love this place!

So, Google said this place was closed when we wanted some dinner tonight. But we stopped anyway to check the hours, and it is OPEN on Thursday night until 8:30. Service is outstanding and I did ask if they were still serving (we arrived at 8:15). The owner invited us in and the food was delicious. My 'side' salad filled me up, and was very fresh with baby lettuce, real bacon bits, etc). My companions had the main course salads. They were HUGE and fresh. We took two pieces of pie to go. I highly recommend. We will go back for their dinner special tomorrow night probably....

You must try their catfish when they have it on Friday's! Absolutely amazing! The loaded baked potato soup is very delicious as well. I also enjoy their cookies.

Was in the Hiawatha area and wanted a simple light lunch. I saw this placed and decided to stop in. The place is small and quaint, but cute. The staff are very nice. The food? Hoodoggie good!!My grilled ham and cheese was a nice portion, grilled to perfection and the pasta salad was light and had a kick of flavors. I will definately be back..FYI, this is an amish establishment, therefore go easy on the picture taking because this is against their beliefs.

Stopped in to the Bread Bowl for some quick lunch to go.... the only reason why I am giving them 4 stars is because I wasn't greeted and didn't know what to do when I stepped in the door and for minutes after. The gal server looked and me a few times after looking at her for acknowledgement and what to do I received nothing. And to top it off when we walked in she greeted someone else and told them what to do. When another gal came from the back the rest is 5 stars from there, she provided great customer service and we got our wraps in a moments time so we could be on our way. To top it off, the food was great for the price and everything along with it. This was actually my 2nd time getting to go food from the Bread Bowl and I look forward to my 3rd visit! I would encourage you to try this small town establishment. Side note: They have to go soups that we also purchased for later along with some strawberry jam!

Yummy home-cooked meals, whether it's lunch, dinner, or desserts! Their cakes and pies are incredible.

The staff is friendly and efficient. The food is home style and very good! The restaurant is small, but comfortable. It does get busy at lunch, so go as early as you can. Try the pie, Cookies and cinnamon rolls. They are all excellent!

In town for work and "stumbled onto" this establishment (met the owner through a series of coincidences). We'd seen it while going through town multiple times but couldn't coordinate our hours with theirs. Finally managed to get in for lunch yesterday........OMG!!! Homemade chicken and noodles, hand-breaded chicken tenders, REAL mashed potatoes and gravy (not quite as good as grandma's but clooooooose!!). Today was their club sandwich (HUUUUGE!!! and good), cole slaw and cherry cheesecake. Asked about dinner and it's catfish, chicken Alfredo and several other items. Believe we'll be back for dinner tonight as I wasn't able to eat all of the cheesecake for lunch!! Their menu is modified due to COVID but it's posted on Facebook every day (and probably a few other places that I didn't look for). Based on what I've tasted so far, I don't think I would hesitate to eat anything from their menu. Everything has been sooooo good so far I wouldn't hesitate to recommend anything from their menu even if I haven't had it.
