I visited Hofer's in Helen on main street. Nice little Cafe except that there are air condition vents over every table. Just make sure you eat your food very fast before it gets cold. Mine was warm when served but got cold faster than I got eat it. I asked 4 times if they could please turn the air condition... more

This is a small restaurant, but serves good German food. Service is very good. Prices are just a little on the high side. Don't plan on dinner there since they are only open for lunch on most days. more

Breakfast was quick and good. Pastries were great and inexpensive! The place is tiny, so you may have to wait, but it's worth it! more

Great breakfast - I got the waffle, by daughter got the french toast, and hubby got corn beef hash - all of it very good. Our waitress was nice and attentive. Wish the restaurant was a little bigger though! more

Enjoyed breakfast here. I had the cream cheese omelette, and my husband had the corned beef hash. We were both happy with our meals. The bakery has wonderful pastries, cakes and cookies. Give them a try! more

Stopped at Hofer's for a late lunch. There was a bit of a line, but the wait wasn't more than 15 minutes. I had the Po Boy which had a good portion of meat on a very fresh french roll. My wife had the French Dip that had a mound of fresh sliced roast beef. One of the largest french... more

We were there for breakfast once and lunch once and a couple of times to the bakery. The food is always wonderful and the bakery is always fresh and unique. more

There's almost always a line of diners waiting to eat in the tiny cafe of this authentic German bakery. The food was worth the wait. We even came back the next day to get some gifts and pastries for the road. more

We were in Helen from August 31st to September 2nd, a really quick trip at the end of the summer for some mountain time and a bit of refreshment. While we were there, we dined at 3 restaurants. Hofer's was by far the best of them. I mean, there was no contest. On our first lunch, my husband and son... more

The german food served at this restaurant is average compared to that served in other restaurants across the country. However, the bakery products are quite good. more
