The Log Cabin is an upscale restaurant specializing in fine farm-to-table cuisine, specialty cocktails and wines. The historic structure dates back more than 100 years and was once used as a Speakeasy before opening officially as a restaurant in 1933, after the Repeal of Prohibition. Since then, the Log Cabin has become a Lancaster County tradition, playing host to countless birthdays, anniversaries, business events and celebrations of all kinds.

Italian Carnival at The Log Cabin

Mar 4, 2025 only

Mardi Gras... Fat Tuesday... Fasnacht Day? There are many names for the last day before Lent and many ways to celebrate around the world. In Italy, it's the season of "Carnevale" with feasts, parades and parties happening in every region from Sicily to Veneto -- including the Carnival of Venice, famous for opulent costumes and masked balls, the Carnival of Viareggio, featuring giant animatronic floats, and the Carnival of Ivrea, where neighborhoods compete for bragging rights in the Battle of the Oranges. This year, for the first time, we are bringing some of the fun back to Lancaster County with a Carnival of our own! Join members of the Keystone Italian Project for a special Italian-themed evening at The Log Cabin Restaurant in Leola, PA on Tuesday, March 4th. Dress up, don a mask, and enjoy a rare Tuesday night of extravagance! NOTA BENE: This is a Fundraiser! 25% of all sales generated during the event will be donated to the Keystone Italian Project to help offset rising costs of L'Italia Festival of Lititz, PA, which is planned for Saturday, Sept 13th, 2025 in Lititz Springs Park. Your $25 ticket includes a welcome drink and small bites throughout the night. Additional drinks and food items may be ordered à la carte.

As always, food & service was excellent. I loved the option of a smaller plate. I had the shrimp from the small plate menu. My husband had the seafood pasta dish. Both entrees were excellent. Thank you Log Cabin.

The Log Cabin Restaurant is a dining experience. A culinary delight that I'd recommend to all. Amazing food and service, the wait staff was terrific. The cocktails are amazing also. Very warm, cozy atmosphere. We went on a Saturday night, there was a piano player and a singer in the lounge we really enjoyed. Can't wait to return

It was a good dining experience, but high cost. We plan to go back again when they don't have the extra markup for Valentine's Day. The venue is unique and filled with interesting paintings and 19th and early 20th century design and fixtures.

The Log Cabin has always been a 'go to' place for a little something special, however, the Valentine's Day fixed price dinner left a lot to be desired. The value for the price was poor at best. Details: 1. Service was very slow 2. Amuse Bouche was delicious, but service on a plastic plate. Seriously? 3. The Buratta/Beet appetizer made no sense. Hummus did not pair well, buratta was void of any flavor and watery and there was no crostini or bread to work with this . 4. My husband ordered the rib eye. It was not a ribeye at all, but had good flavor. 5. I ordered a rare filet which was very overcooked. I sent it back, but it was so far after service that I had lost my appetite by the time it was ready, so had it packed up to go home. 6. Asked it was would like bread, we said yes. We were charged $8 for cold cornbread and I man very cold. 7 . My husband added mushrooms for his steak. He received about 1/4 cup of mushrooms for $18. Yikes! Not sure I can recommend the Log Cabin at this point and not sure if/when we will return. Disappointing......

We were told to be seated in the waiting area and we would be seated shortly. After waiting almost 30 minutes I went to check on our reservation. No one registered us as being there. We were seated immediately but not in the main dining room with the fireplace as we should have been. We did get a complimentary glass of wine for the inconvenience. The meal we had was delicious but when the bill came we were charged $30 for adding mushrooms to our meal. When I asked about it, I was told that was the correct price. One would think if you are paying $250 a couple for dinner, mushrooms would be included with the dinner. We were disappointed with that. I will say the waitress we had was outstanding!
