In traveling full time, we like to fully experience what each destination has to offer. While staying nearby, we happened upon the town of Hermann and decided that it is a location we would add to our future travels. One place that stood out for us was the Hermann Wurst Haus. Upon entering, the smell of smoked meats teased our olfactory senses, so we had to have a taste of the offerings. Perfect timing on our part, since we were ready for a nice lunch. We ordered a brisket sandwich, a brat (sans sour kraut) with German potato salad and a couple of dark beers to compliment the food. (So sorry, I’m part German but I do not care for sour kraut…I guess I’m not normal?) Anyway, the food and beverages were outstanding! And to top that off, the restaurant staff was pleasant and very helpful, too. Thank you, Hermann Wurst Haus, for being the best!

Best German food in Hermann!!! Our group of 6 was greeted at the door, told about the special, and told how to go about ordering. Our highlights were the special BLT, balogna, the bratwurst, the German potato salad, and the slaw. We enjoyed our lunch on Friday so much we came back Sunday morning for the breakfast buffet.very good!

We came for lunch and had brats on pretzel buns with sauerkraut and mustard sauce. They were absolutely delicious! For sides we had large servings of German potato salad, loaded potato salad and red cabbage, all were very good. Employees were helpful and friendly. Definitely a place I want to come back for lunch when we’re in Hermann.

We really enjoyed the Wurst Haus. Mike greeted us as we entered and we asked him to recommend things off the menu. We tried the platter, and the brats, sauerkraut, German potato salad, and cabbage, and all were delicious. We tried a sample of the sausage they had at the front of the store and ended up buying some because it was so good. Staff were friendly, and we liked the selection of items we had to choose from. We are from Milwaukee, where we know sausage (lol), and this was a great find! Thanks, Mike!

I stumbled upon this place with my boyfriend when we took a random stop in Hermann. I am so glad we did, Mike greeted us personally and gave us all of the recommendations. The bratwurst was incredible and the brisket was to die for. I love the pretzel buns also! Mike really knows what he’s doing. I can’t wait to order some of the different varieties to be delivered once I get home!

Nice place and nice people. But I have to admit that the Best of show brat was disappointing. But that’s just one mans opinion. They wouldn’t be in business if people didn’t love it so, enjoy!

A very nice atmosphere for shopping, and for lunch. My wife had the Ruben sandwich and it thoroughly enjoyed it. I ordered the brat and it was very good, though pretzel buns are not my favorite. I think next time I would go with my wife’s Reuben. We definitely will be back though!

You never get a second chance to make a first impression. We arrived here around 12:30PM on 7/23/22. The greeting was friendly and she recommended the special. A BLT made with house bacon and home grown tomatoes. Sounded great ! As you can see from the photos , the sandwich fell very short of expectations to say the least. We had made a day trip to Herman and was looking for a nice lunch. This was not it. I brought it to the owners attention and I explained that is is not what a BLT is or should look like. He did bring extra bacon , lettuce and very thinly cut tomatoes to our table. I made the best of it with the additional items provided by making my own sandwich. Out total bill was 34.28. I thought it was interesting that there is a sign behind the cash register that reads “WORLDS BEST SANDWICH “. My recommendation is to eat at one of the other local restaurants in the area and avoid this place for lunch.

This was a great stop! Shop, eat or both! Some of the best German pasta salad I have ever had. Rich, creamy and delicious. Bought a ton of cheeses, sausage, salami and brats to go. I’ve never seen that much meat aging/drying on racks before. Pretty cool to see!
