We were in Cole Camp for the annual Christbaum event. Stopped at the Handl House tea room for lunch. It was scrumptious! I had their ham mushroom Swiss quiche with a small pear and blue cheese salad. The quiche melted in your mouth. Everyone one was friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend giving them a try. read more

Handel Haus - Ham mushroom swiss quiche with a pear, blue cheese and walnut salad. Yummy! - Jewelry Near Me - Cole Camp, Missouri

If you are headed to the lake and want to skip the roadside burger joints, or coming home and over did it at the lake - STOP HERE for fresh (not fried, not over processed) food. Crisp iced tea, fresh salads, fruit, unique soups, sandwiches, homemade desserts and coffee - all in the middle of a boutique, inside of an old mercantile store. Service was excellent by ladies who make you feel like a local! The charming interior, friendly service and fresh food makes this tea room a great value. I asked about the history of the building and was given a print out of its 100+ years of being a centerpiece in Cole Camp. Skip the roadside, greasy ketchup and mustard fingers - and step into Handel House for a pleasant dining experience. read more

Handel Haus - Chocolate chip pecan pie - Jewelry Near Me - Cole Camp, Missouri

Excellent place to relax and have lunch. Service is great and the atmosphere is very nice.

Our group of 7 looked forward to our annual excursion to Handel House. The food was wonderful. However while browsing and checking the price tag on a necklace the display crumbled and fell to the foor. The $45 necklace cracked and the owner Marsha? Insisted on payment for the broken necklace. She coughed up $45 to cover the necklace. However it was a total accident from being precariously displayed and falling apart from someone just looking at a price tag. We have concluded we will not return - ever. read more

Great quiche! Hubby and I were exploring Cole Camp and happened upon this tea room. Excellent food, friendly service. A fun find. I had the Bacon, Chicken, Monterrey quiche with the flakiest crust and cooked to perfection. Hubby had the Grilled Reuben special and said it was one of the best he's had. Don't miss the chance to stop in. read more

Great little tea room, with exceptional strawberry pie. The crust is so thin and tastes like a sugar cookie. Worth the stop for just that but has so much more to offer. Cute gift shop and nice lunch specials. read more

Hubby & I were puttering around some of Missouri's county roads south of Sedalia yesterday and drove into Cole Camp, Missouri just about lunch time. The Handel Haus looked intriguing because it reminds me of a lot of the old time general stores I've visited over the years, but the stenciled sign in the front window said they also had food and drink. We parked just a few steps from the front door and once inside followed the sound of quiet chatter and clinking cutlery to the very back of the first floor to find the most charming little tea room. The smiling server told us to sit where ever we liked and we soon had menus and tall glasses of iced tea to sip while we made our food choices. It can be a chore to make decisions when everything sounds good, like the Ruben and a Cheeseburger, but if you cannot spot the Daily Specials board, don't forget to ask about the Specials of the Day before ordering. Turns out they had three quiches to choose from and one was Ham, Mushroom and Swiss. It sounded good and WAS good. Hubby decided to step away from ordering his standard Hamburger plate and went with a slice of Cheddar, Broccoli, Ham quiche. I had my eye on the Dessert specials of the Day and decided not to order a cup of soup or side salad so I might save room for a piece of the German Lemon Cream Pie. I'm happy I did because it was also wonderful! Hubby ordered pumpkin pie with whipped cream and I had a taste of his too. Reminds me that Fall is just around the corner and it will soon be time to plan the Thanksgiving menu. Handel Haus is also chock full of all manner of decorative and gift items, so be sure to spend time wandering around to find a special treasure of two to take home. They have some vintage, some new, lots of must-have treasures. I was especially drawn to the whimsical collection of Halloween items tucked in among the other gift items. Witches peeking from behind curtains or a black cat peering from a flower pot...many had a vintage look which i really love. The only thing 'better' than Halloween is Vintage Halloween. Cole Camp is a charming small town but, unfortunately, we had to drive on back toward Kansas City without doing much looking around. I'm just happy we found Handel Haus and would love to go back again sometime and spend a whole day and also stay the night in a B&B. read more

This is one of me and my friends favorite place to go for luncheons! It's tucked in the corner of an old historical building with a gorgeous gift shop all around the dining area. Love the atmosphere and the tasty food they serve. You can't find a better quiche anywhere! Salads, soups and sandwiches are also on the menu. They have a daily special, soup of the day, and different desserts every day. The only down side to this place is they need more room..they can be maxed out over lunch and you occasionally have to wait for a table. But that also tells you how good their food is too...everybody around here loves it. Try it out you won't be sorry. read more

Great little tea room with good food. Specials every day - sandwiches, soups, salads, quiches, and delicious desserts. The gift shop is amazing, the owner has excellent taste. read more
