Amazing food, service and atmosphere!!! Hubby fell in love with the Opa's German sausage and I fell in love with the German pancake!! Our food was hot and fresh. Our waitress was helpful, friendly and so sweet!! Steady stream of customers coming in to eat in the restaurant and pick up take out orders, and to get an order of their yummy pastries!!! This place is excellent. 5 stars all the way around!!!

This was excellent overall. Great service from the staff, and the food was great. Definitely get the red cabbage salad as a side, you won't be disappointed. The Reuben sandwich and potato salad were also excellent. But the real winner here was the Giant Pretzel with Beer Cheese and Mustard. Best pretzel I've ever had.

WOW! The Old German Bakery & Restaurant ROCKS! We had a wonderful breakfast and loved Rebecca who doted on us the entire meal. She is amazing. We had the Schnitzel and an unbelievable German pancake. The pancake was a creation in between a traditional pancake and a crepe. Thin, moist and spongy. I topped it with butter, syrup, powdered sugar, cinnamon and lemon. Yes, lemon! It tasted more like lemon curd, sweet and tangy. Mind blown. I highly recommend the Old German Bakery & Restaurant when you are in Fredericksburg, Texas!

Heads up- this place is busy, so make sure your entire party is present or you will not be seated. The food is excellent. In my opinion, this place has the best German food in the area. I had schnitzel and then a German pancake for dessert (FYI get it with the lemon and powdered sugar). My husband had the sausage plate. My brother had the bratwurst place and my sister in law had the bratwurst sandwich. The German pancake was amazing too!!!!

I tried a few pastries from the bakery! Freshly made and very good! 🤤 I visited right when they opened. The Old German Bakery and Restaurant was established in 1975 and Lutz Henschel has been the owner since 1998. They serve true German food by using traditional German recipes to make all food from scratch. The decor is Old World Berlin with a friendly family atmosphere. They serve breakfast all day. 🥐 🥮 Authentic German breads and pastries. 🇩🇪 Danke Schon!

⸻ We came to this restaurant at 9:00 a.m. the day after Christmas. We waited about 25 minutes in line, but it was absolutely worth it. Our server was very friendly and patient. Since we weren’t familiar with the menu, she took the time to explain everything clearly. When she noticed that we had ordered a bit too much food, she kindly warned us that the portions were large and suggested ordering half portions instead, which we really appreciated. We tried the fried pork chop and the German sausage, and both were delicious. Great food and great service — we would definitely come back!

I highly recommend this casual restaurant. I went at a busy time & had to wait about 20 minutes, but it was worth it. I lived in Germany years ago, and this schnitzel was very authentic and tasty. It was served with crunchy home fries and a salad. The iced tea was fresh, large and had crushed ice. The service was excellent. There is also a bakery if you want to get some goodies to go!

We left early at 3am from my city to get here by 8am. There were open seats so we were able to pick where we wanted to sit. By 8:15am it was flooding in with people and the wait was 30+ mins on a Sunday. Went again on a Wednesday around 9am and it was quiet with no wait. Their food was amazing, service was great and we loved our pastries we got and we got some to bring home too. Worth going! Just make sure to plan early if you're going on a weekend :)

This is a must when in Fredericksburg. Their german style pancakes are so yummy. The sausage that came with my breakfast was incredible. The coffee is great, no cream or sugar needed.

Great small-town breakfast and bakery. Arrive early on the weekend, the dining room is small and typically has a wait. The pastries in the case are wonderful. Worth the stop.

Wonderful breakfast! The German pancakes were delicious. Eggs and bacon were prepared just like I like ‘em. Service was A1! We will be back!!!

Casual atmosphere but excellent authentic German food. Surprised at the quality as the interior is well used.....and crowded.

This was my first time visiting. The food and pastries were good, but overall, nothing really stood out to set it apart, except for the Opa’s sausage, which was definitely a highlight. The atmosphere is simple; I was hoping for a bit more in terms of ambiance and decor. The dishes we tried were the smoked pork chop and the croissant sandwich. Service was good, and I recommend arriving early if you want to grab a seat quickly.

Visited for breakfast and had Oma’s pancakes with bacon. They give you a significant amount of food for the price. It gets busy just about any day of the week, so get there early. Tables are small and don’t leave much leg room for folks that are taller in stature. Service was friendly and they offer t-shirts you can buy in various colors. There is a decent assortment of pastries that are made in house. If in town again we will be looking to try either the lunch or menu options. The location is great right on the main strip in and out of town.

Enjoyable casual German restaurant. Very busy during the winter holidays. Hearty and tasty German dishes. The potato salad that comes with many sandwiches is particularly good. Hurried and efficient service. Pay at cashier counter, with 3% extra charge for credit cards. Street parking or scattered free parking lots along the street.

Our server was really good and had a great personality but they were extremely busy and we had to ask for refills a couple times. The food really good too but there was a mix up with our order. They fixed it quickly. They were almost out of pastries. You would think a bakery would have more. All in all we waited an hour to get a table and it was worth it.

Went here for breakfast and it was pretty packed with a decent wait, but it's apparently one of the spots you need to try at least once. Got a crepe and it was perfectly serviceable. My server treated me kindly. Quite loud inside, given how small a space it is it's not surprising. Perhaps I need to try something from the bakery itself because I'm not sure if I get why this place is so hyped and crowded. Can't be the only unique place in Fredericksburg that serves a decent breakfast, right?

Rebecca Lake

We had sausage rolls and a cherry puff to go. The food was good, but the sausage roll wasn't warmed enough and could have used more cheese. Over all a good to go experience.

Waited over 30 minutes to be seated which I understand but by the time we where seated breakfast was over and they wouldn't give us a break..I then ordered Chicken fried steak off the menu and they said it was sold out. Really 12 noon and it's sold out. Got some cookies to go that were good but probably won't be back.
