I am happy to report the friendly farmers are back to life as usual, after a few years of Olympia WA overreach. DKH is still doin' it like they have for decades, but my few words now are a thanks for the town of Odessa WA--that will always know how to put on a family-friendly festival for four days on the third weekend in September. Blink and you'll miss it. God Bless'm, and may they keep the tradition going for as long as they can. After living in Eastern WA for the last few decades, I feel a sense of normalcy with a plate of sleep inducing German food from this nice town once a year, and thankfully, have kiddos that drive us all home while I food coma in a back seat. Trust me, we eat more than my pictures show. Prost...! read more

Favorite place to go every Fest! Rumored to not continue next year (2019), sign on window says for sale. ***BTW, this is not a restaurant. They sell wonderful German food ONCE A YEAR, for 4 days only. If I don't get my yearly dose if Spatzle, guess it's time to move.... read more

I think we stop by here every time because it's open a little later than the other food booths (I think they are open until 8pm) during DeutschesFest in September. We always order the kartoffel (pasta with bits of potatoes & sauce) with a sausage when we stop by and it's always so fresh, hot and yumm! The people are super nice who serve the food and we thank them for their time in preparing all that is available the whole weekend. Plus, for just $9, it's a really filling and flavorful German meal to help absorb all the Hofbrau that's drank later on! We love this place and always look forward to stopping by when in town. read more
