German Cafe

"We actually found this restaurant on accident, and oh boy how glad am I we did! We had a wonderful time, and had some of the best sausage and schnitzel I've ever had here! A cozy atmosphere brings life to a great meal. Can't wait to return!"

"German Cafe and Restaurant in French Lick, Indiana is a quaint, family-owned restaurant with great food and a friendly staff. The giant pretzel was the best I've ever had. The goulash witha rich paprika sauce and spatzle with polish sausage were excellent. The sauerkraut was delicious as were the slaw, and red cabbage. Great little cafe, worth the drive! #hoosierfoodiedaddy"

"What a lovely find! We had a friend in from St. Louis to visit over the weekend. We took him to several places within an hour's drive of our home. While in French Lick walking around we got hungry and stepped in for a meal. Now I thought to myself, with such reasonable pricing, the serving sizes must be small. Boy was I wrong! I thought I ordered a small salad. It was huge with all kinds of vegetables cooked and uncooked. Jim's order was huge! And it was so good he ate every bite!"

"My wife and I enjoyed the unique atmosphere inside. The food was really good. I recommend the fried Spaetzle with polish sausage."

"Went tonight with my wife. We ordered Grosse Platte, receiving almost every item on the menu. Portions were great and food was excellent. When we arrived 90 minutes before closing, the restaurant was very slow. While we were there, a group of 16 came in, along with several smaller groups. The ONE server handled everyone incredibly... we never felt neglected, and she was literally RUNNING through the restaurant taking great care of everyone. The only complaint was that the restroom area needed to be cleaned and the area repaired."

"What a find...New Years morning we discovered this little place in French Lick. After staying at West Baden and celebrating New Years there. We wanted something special for our New Years morning meal. We ordered the meal for two. It was like a sample of everything which is just what we wanted. There was so much on the menu. This way we got a delicious tasting of alot of their German food. EVERYTHING was so amazing. Special attention to the red cabbage and sourkraut and potato salad. They were served slightly warmed....O'...just the way I like it. I'm so thankful for leftovers. Best place ever..."

"The pretzel sticks and beer cheese are an ABSOLUTE must-try! I should have snapped a pic of the menu to share the actual German names- but I spaced it. My husband had the beef in paprika sauce with a side of noodles. I loved the sauce- it had a real depth of flavor. I ordered the Tenderloin with mushroom gravy and our amazing server suggested I have 1/2 & 1/2 on the sides (since I was so indecisive )- so I chose the noodles and German potatoes. I absolutely LOVED the potatoes!!! Perfectly seasoned, with a slight crunch on the outside, but soft, and pillowy on the inside. The Tenderloin was the best I've ever had. It is lightly breaded, but still has some crunch and I got that salt flavor that comes with deep fried versions. I will probably try a different sauce next time...it was ok (I appreciated the quality of the mushrooms). I think it just had to do with personal preference - it had a wonderful consistency and depth of flavor."
