I grew up in the area, and we used to eat there often as little kids. My sister and I would fight over who got to sit in the peacock chair if we got a corner table! I wanted to correct a few errors and address some questions: Rummy's was in Berks County, not Lancaster County. There aren't any Amish people for 30 miles from where Rummy's was. There was only ever one location. Route 422 in Monocacy was the physical location. As someone else pointed out, RD 2 means rural delivery, route 2, from the Douglassville post office, so that's the postal delivery address. Rummy's was there starting in the 1940s, not the 60s as reported in one post. My parents were married in 1952 and went to Rummy's well before that, as did other relatives.
