globe celebrated pie . crack - size cinnamon rolls . pocket-size - townspeople hospitality .
That is what you get when you locomote to Dover , Kansas . An “ unincorporated ” Ithiel Town just southwest of the Capitol Building metropolis of Topeka , it is a tiny , tranquil village famous for having amazing pie .
Small town equals big eats.
Dover , Kansas has astonishing food . It ’s comfort food . Like whatPioneer Womanmakes on TV .
Hey , Dover has been on TV ! The Sommerset Hall cafe holds the claim of the World ’s Best Pie . you may interpret about the Sommerset Hall Cafe ’s pie storyHERE . It is moderately awesome .
Most small towns have a lacrimation hole . A piazza where the community can get together for meal or meetings . In Dover , that stead is the Sommerset Hall Cafe . you could read the history of the Sommerset Hall CafeHERE .
If you read about the cafe history , you know the quiet town of Dover and the Sommerset Hall Cafe draw in people from all over the easterly function of Kansas . It truly is Shawnee County ’s good kept secret .
I go to Dover a few multiplication per year for a farm management coming together . Or is it for the solid food ?
When the humble group of us arrived and satiate the tiny parking lot , we climbed the creaky steps to the meeting way . These lovelies were expect for us .
Fresh . Warm . Buttery .
Irresistable .
The Ceylon cinnamon rolls are definitely worth going for seconds . HOWEVER , I refrained from a second cinnamon peal . The first cinnamon roll certainly did not help my caloric intake for the day . But , you only live once ( YOLO ) , right ?
The rest of the morning was spent in the group meeting room learning . What did I get word ? I have no idea .
I was dreaming about lunch .
Finally , it was tiffin time and there was roast beef . I was so excited , there was no time for a photo .
Along with the joint kick , we eat homemade mashed potatoes and gravy , corn , and a dinner party curlicue . Talk about hometown country cooking .
World Famous Pie
Before we received tiffin , we had to give one of the waitress our pie guild . There were about 10 - 12 choices for Proto-Indo European . I chose the Lemon Meringue .
That is not the Lemon Meringue . That is my friend Jody ’s Coconut Cream she could n’t finish .
I was so frantic about dejeuner and the pie , I completely leave to take a moving picture of my pie for you all . distressing about that . It was a beautiful piece of pie .
If you would have ask anyone if they had enough to deplete , the answer would have been the same . We were all so stuffed and happy from the comfort food that it felt like nap metre .
For a few guy wire it was . Later on in the confluence , those few guys did doze off . Of of course , the rest of us repoint and snigger .
Down stair , the locals had garner for dejeuner as well . It ’s always a full house for tiffin at the Sommerset Hall Cafe . Everyone who can will come in to eat and socialize in the town ’s watering hole .
Small town life is so special , but what hit it even more challenging is how everyone come together to enjoy a taste of home .
I enjoyed my metre at the Sommerset Hall Cafe in Dover , KS . I will be back again soon .
