There are times when you’re hungry and just about anything will do. That’s when you head for tried-and-true pizza or something from the fridge. But then there are times when you need something truly comforting. That’s when you look to perfectly prepared home-cooked meals in cozy environments. This German restaurant offers all the comforts of home, without having to cook. And, there might not be a better place to enjoy authentic German food without needing a passport.
Steinhaus Keller, located in Hot Springs, might just be the closest you can get to Germany without having to hop on a plane. And right now, that's pretty appealing to us!

Walk down the steps of Spencer's Corner and you'll find the entrance. It almost feels hidden. And inside you'll feel as though you've entered your favorite restaurant in Bavaria.

For those looking to start things off slowly to enjoy time with friends, consider ordering the sausage and cheese board. It comes with seasonal German sausage, fruit, nuts, and cheeses. And this deliciousness is all spread out around a giant Bavarian pretzel, served on a carving
board with bier cheese and an array of mustards.

It's not uncommon to see every table with the 10" traditional Bavarian giant pretzel. It's lightly salted, baked, then hung on a hook. It comes with haus-made bier cheese and spicy brown mustard.

Or, dive right into traditional foods like the cheese schnitzel featuring German mustard infused Haus-made bier cheese with sautéed mushrooms, onions, and bacon.

Or, make things more casual by getting the schnitzel sandwich. It's topped with shredded red cabbage, lettuce, onion, tomato, pickled chef's relish, Swiss cheese, and a sweet German mustard aioli. And it's all served on a toasted pretzel bun.

They even have a biergarten located in the atrium of the building. It's relaxing, pet friendly and offers full-service dining as well. And the bar features Arkansas' largest selection of German and European beer.
