We have been going to Amana for approx. 18 years, 2-4 times a year & our favorite breakfast place was always the Colony Inn at least until Jan. 28 2012. We had breakfast there & were very dissapointed that day! The same food was served as always, but all the cooked food (pancakes, eggs,etc.) had a very greasy taste, like... More

The sweet sauerkraut is awesome. I have never walked away hungry from there More

We were disappointed in our visit to the Colony Inn on Wednesday, Sept. 21. The only had two pie choices and were completely out of ice cream. The meal prices seemed high compared to others in town. Place was pretty empty. More

Visited Amana Colonies near Davenport, IA, and ate the best weinersnitzel and sauerbraten ever. Served family style and more than we could eat of everything. Don't miss one of the Amana restaurants if you are within 100 miles--well worth the trip for a meal! More
