Heart and Hearth Deli & Smokehouse — Restaurant in Kutztown

More than fine cuisine, Heart & Hearth offers a cozy, warm & welcoming space just as the name suggests. Their broad menu features drool-worthy smoked meats paired with artful expertise into sandwiches & soups. There are also breakfast items, baked goods, vegetarian & vegan options! You can peruse their shelves to discover produce, fresh bread, small-batch vinegars, kombucha, honey & more. The Curd Vonnegut had baked lemon pepper tofu, carrots & the best parsnips I've ever had on a crunchy baguette. The interplay of flavors was simply divine! We also had the meatloaf; the only thing understated about it was its name! That recipe is gold. There is a small dining room in the back with a vinyl record collection & player, & local art displayed on the walls tying a wonderful community aspect into this grassroots, homegrown heartful...

Listen, if it's 2pm on a Saturday and you've got a hankering for an interesting spot that also feels like you are taking a seat at a friends house, you'll want to come here. I'm a sucker for a good deli because I'm on a never ending quest to try every reuben on earth.

My boyfriend and I stopped in, he got a breakfast sandwich & the hill billy brisket sandwich and I got the reuben. We both picked a small dessert as well. Not only was the food absolutely delicious and presented well but the dining room was so cozy. They had records to play, a small store like feel, and interesting decor everywhere.

If you read these reviews about the fantastic staff - believe them! The entire staff was very helpful, great to interact and chat with, and made the perfect recommendations. We will totally be back to work our way...

This place is an absolute gem. The staff are friendly. The food is fantastic. The atmosphere is comfortable and has a lot of character. We had a brisket sandwich with apple cabbage slaw (the brisket delicious but the slaw was divine), a chicken sandwich (the chicken had a deep Smokey flavor), a couple of biscuits (buttery), and a mixed berry galette (the best thing we had - I told the staff it is on the level of one of our favorite bakeries - Standard Baking Co in Portland, ME). We also got lemon lavender poppy shortbread to bring home. All that plus a toasted cheese sandwich for our son was a little over $50. Great food - hope to be back in the area again soon to try...
