Reviews For Linden House

The food was excellent with the exception of being late. I mean really, really late. The waitress forgot to put in our order for our appetizers and I had to ask her about them when she brought out the entrees. She made it up by giving us a free appetizer and a free nice dessert for my husband and I to share. This wasn't our first time eating at Valerie's but it was the first time we've had an less than ideal experience.

I stayed here on a business trip that turned out to be a lot more pleasure because of the Linden House. Val and the crew were amazingly gracious hosts and took great care of us. They were funny, attentive, and supported our need to relax at the end of the day. The food was outstanding, I think I gained ten pounds, but I never went away hungry. They were even kind enough to ship me my hat and sunglasses I'd mistakenly left under a chair. Come and check this place out if you get a chance. I'll definitely be back!

Four of us stayed with Val and Randy while attending the Tulip Festival in Pella. Everything was amazing! They are so warm and welcoming. Rooms are very spacious, comfortable and super clean! We were greeted each morning with a beautiful breakfast and it was delicious! When you stay here you feel like you're staying with family. We will definitely be back!

I went here for my grandparent's 50th anniversary. The food was very good (I had a burger, but my family enjoyed seafood and steak)! Service was excellent and staff were super friendly! It's not the place to go for a quick meal, so go in with the expectation of spending at least 1 or 1.5 hours here (at least). Overall atmosphere was very nice and was pretty much what I expected from a bed and breakfast/restaurant.

This hidden gem in a small town is a must for those looking for fine dining. The staff was friendly and curteous. Our food was served quickly and was well made. We had the breaded porkchops and the prime rib entrees. There is a full bar. Make reservations now for a wonderful evening in your future.

Loved everything about the Linden House except for our waitress. We didn't see her maybe once after she took our order. We had to find another waitress to get what we needed. We had the pepper steak and baked potato. The atmosphere was delightful. We'll definitely go back. Great food. Great place. Thank you from Dennis & Ann

Absolutely loved it here! Val and everyone else were amazing and the food was delicious! Loved the rooms, bed was super comfortable and the rooms were nicely kept and clean. Beautiful views if you want to spend the evening outside!!

We booked a girls' outing at Linden House during the Pella Tulip Days. We had an outstanding time! We ate at the restaurant two evenings and the food and service were great. Breakfast each morning was equally wonderful. The bedroom I used included a very comfortable queen bed and a bunk bed as well as a very nice ensuite bathroom. Multiple seating areas inside and outside allowed us to relax together and talk. We all agreed that we'd be happy to go back again. Val and her entire staff were wonderful!
