Smoke shop famous for its smoked meat specialties.
This is a meat shop not a restaurant. We always stop here for meat supplies when passing thru the Amanq area. The German style stone ground mustard and smoked bacon are a must. We stock up with several jars of mustard and at least 4 packages of the maple smoked bacon. This bacon is lower in sodium than most advertised lower in sodium bacon from the grocery stores. I have to watch my sodium in take and will grill the 4 packages on the grill and freeze it for future use. They always have food samples available.

This general store has been in business since 1858.
TAFFY, my friend was talking to us about getting her new supply of it; so I bought 2 flavors also; yummy!! Christmas area was so packed, it was hard to move around since it was overload to our minds where we couldn't see everything since it was crowded. Would be wonderful some day if they could put an elevator in for those of us that are handicapped and can't walk up/down their stairs to see everything down there too. Their women's bathroom sink was leaking; water all over the floor by sink only; not by stools. I informed cashiers of this. I asked them to put a sign on the door about WET FLOOR; be careful. Instead they put an OUT OF ORDER sign on door. I asked why; we DON'T have a sign that says that!! Then make one so folks can use the public restroom since there aren't that many places allowing public to use their restrooms ok ;) Thanks for your consideration. Aisles are very narrow and with the HUGE weekend crowds, very hard to get around. So be prepared for that if you are a senior.

Since its founding, the Old Creamery has been dedicated to performing high-quality, live professional theatre for audiences of all ages and interests, and offers a wide variety of plays each season, as well as many different educational opportunities. The Old Creamery is proud to be the longest running professional theatre company in the state of Iowa.
Attended the 2018 production of The Addams Family the Creamery Main Stage 1/4 from Amana and thought it was a top notch experience start to finish.... great production, terrifically talented cast. Wish they could have had a live band, but the vocalists and dance numbers were impressive nonetheless. I was impressed with the pro level set, staging and special effects... LOVED IT! I would go back in a heartbeat. Hear they do lots of comedy but that's my kind of thing. Their theatre is easy to find, has plenty of parking, a nice lobby and super comfortable seating. Plenty of room outdoors I saw as I parked for a summer get together on their back patio before the show.

This store doesn't just have wine. It has lots of cheeses and also gifts. I'd recommend for anybody to browse in this store.

We made our first stop at the visitor center since we had never been to Amana. The lady there was very helpful and told us about the van tour which we took. Our guide was so good, he took us to all the villages, the museum, the Church, the general store and gave us so much history and information. It was a perfect way to see everything and then the next day we went back to some of the places where we want to spend more time.

The history of Amana Colonies, a National Historic Landmark and one of America’s longest-lived communal societies, begins in 1714 in the villages of Germany and continues today on the Iowa prairie. Amana Colonies Today Today the seven villages of the Amana Colonies represent an American dream come true; a thriving community founded by religious faith and community spirit. Declared a National Historic Landmark in 1965, the Amana Colonies attract hundreds of thousands of visitors annually all of whom come to see and enjoy a place where the past is cherished and where hospitality is a way of life. Evocative of another age, the streets of the Amana Colonies with their historic brick, stone and clapboard homes, their flower and vegetable gardens, their lanterns and walkways recall Amana yesterday. But a vibrant community, celebrating both its past and its future, is here today for you to experience.
Interesting place to visit, unique story with really friendly people. THE VILLAGE TOUR from the Visitor center is a must.

Iowa's only operating woolen mill.
Stunning talent goes into creating the beautiful items available at the Woolen Mill. We just wanted to buy it all. :) We settled on a couple of items and were treated graciously upon checkout. Positive experience overall!
