Postcard Published by Country Studio of Photography, Witmer, Pennsylvania Mel Horst Photography Postmarked in September, 1965 Postcard measures 3 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches "Heart of Amishland" Plain & Fancy Farm Located on Old Philadelphia Pike (Route 340) 1 1/2 miles West of Intercourse, Pennsylvania, this Amish-built farm is famous for family-style dinners served in the "barn dining room." In 1959, Lancaster County’s original family-style dining room opened its doors to the public. Back then, the meal was served by Grandmother Lapp from her kitchen right in the barn. Not surprisingly, it became known as “Plain & Fancy Farm Dining Room.” Plain & Fancy has continued to welcome hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world who have traveled to the “Farm” along Route 340 between Bird-in-Hand and Intercourse to taste and enjoy a bountiful selection of Pennsylvania Dutch home-style and traditional American favorites. In early April 2017, guests were welcomed to a new restaurant, Smokehouse BBQ and Brews, with a revised menu adding authentic American BBQ and sauces, locally hand crafted beer, and a new, fun dining experience. For guests wishing to sample both the “plain” and “fancy” dining options, we recommend the “Smokehouse Sampler,” with various ways to mix BBQ items with traditional PA Dutch favorites. Today, Plain and Fancy Farm has become a 10 acre destination unto itself, completely surrounded by Amish farmland. Intercourse is an unincorporated village and census-designated place in Leacock Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, 10 miles east of Lancaster on Pennsylvania Route 340. Intercourse is a popular site for tourists because of its location in "Amish country" and its sexually suggestive name. The movie Witness was filmed in Intercourse as well as other parts of the surrounding area, and For Richer or Poorer was set there, though not filmed in Intercourse. Because of the town's unusual name, the sign posts for the town are frequently targeted by thieves. Intercourse was founded in 1754. The community was originally named Cross Keys, after a local tavern. Intercourse became the name in 1814. The village website gives several theories for the origins of the name.
