A little update…
We are still in the process of finding someone with a “German heart” to take over the Gasthaus.
Until then, the Gasthaus is permanently closed for in-house dining. However, on special occasions we will be offering our desserts. Please check our facebook page for updates on dessert events.
Thank you for your loyal support and understanding.
Gasthaus in the news
We would like to thank everyone for all the messages over these past few weeks. We are very touched by them and we feel the love!!
Just to share, here is a collection of news articles over the last few weeks.
Dear Guests and Friends of the Gasthaus
We very much regret that after 29 years we have decided to close the restaurant. It’s been an honor to bring our little bit of Germany to Louisville, by serving our home cooked meals to you and your families.
We have enjoyed the many memories over the years and would like to thank our guests and our hardworking staff for this blessing.
Annemarie and Michael Greipel are taking an “early” retirement, but hope that someone with the enthusiasm and love for the German culture will step in and take over the Gasthaus.
Sincerely,
The Greipel family

About
A Little Gasthaus History
***The Gasthaus German Restaurant is no longer open for business – Thank you for 28 years***
On December 18th, 1993, after months of remodeling, the Greipel Family, all born and raised in Germany, except the oldest daughter Simone (born in London, England), finally opened the “Gasthaus” at its present location.
Executive chef/owner Michael Greipel together with his kitchen team, create authentic dishes from Old World recipes. Annemarie Greipel, her daughter Nina and the friendly staff are responsible for taking care of the guests, many of them regulars.
Since opening in 1993, the menu has grown from a few items to a large selection. Everything is made from scratch, using only the finest and freshest ingredients. Michael handpicks all his meats, fruits and vegetables daily. Annemarie and her daughter Nina make all the desserts daily, in house from family recipes.
While most of the entrees are ‘a la carte’, special requests are gladly accommodated after a short consultation with the chefs.
Parties and take-out orders are welcomed.
The Gasthaus can seat approximately 60-70 people. The décor, which includes two ‘Chalets,’ is a mixture of family pictures and personal items from the Greipel’s home in Germany (Bochum) and gifts from guests. A family member painted the two murals on the walls. The female servers, several of them from Germany or Europe, wear traditional Dirndl dresses.
The whole restaurant is available for private parties or special occasions. There has even been a real wedding in one of the ‘Chalets’. For many years ‘Wave 3’ TV (NBC affiliate) has broadcast a live show from the restaurant.
The Gasthaus Team has taken part in cooking demonstrations on TV as well as the ‘Home and Garden Show’.
The Gasthaus consistently receives positive reviews from newspapers and magazines. The ‘Guide to the Best Restaurants in America’ has named the Gasthaus ‘The Best German Restaurant’ in Louisville for 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016.
People visit from all over America and the world, which the guest books confirm. The whole Gasthaus Team, many of them having been there since ‘day one,’ take great pride in everything they do.
The Gasthaus is conveniently located on the corner of I-264 (Watterson Express Way), Brownsboro Road and Rudy Lane. The address is 4812 Brownsboro Center, Louisville, Ky 40207.
We are currently close for in-house dining as we are searching for a buyer with a German Heart to take over the restaurant. We thank you for your understanding!
