Mary Yoder’s is in Middlefield, Ohio. About thirty minutes from Cleveland. Sixty minutes from Akron or Youngstown.
Mary Yoder’s is a Amish restaurant my wife and I frequent often. Actually going there for dinner Saturday and I’ll be getting several loafs of bread. Also I’m giving you a link to their store if anyone would wish to order from there.

I’ve had their bread, pies, pastry, and jelly and jams. For my west coast fans, I’ll look for something closer.
