We love to sing along with Kurt who provides excellent entertainment. If you are anywhere near Helen then stop in and give them a try!”

“My daughter and I were in Helen for Thanksgiving. We sat and enjoyed a wonderful crêpe on Thanksgiving morning with Ashlee and Tori. Honestly it was my favorite meal our whole entire stay. I am a chef, and I’ve worked in the restaurant industry for over 30 years. This place is a wonderful gem with fresh food and a great staff.”

“Super friendly staff and owner. Just moved to Helen and was welcomed and offered suggestions and the atmosphere is phenomenal. Would highly recommend anyone visiting or local to make this a must stop.”

“Awesome spot ! Lots of choices!! Great atmosphere!!”

“My wife and I just returned from celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary, at the Valhalla Resort Hotel. We absolutely LOVED it! The minute we drove up to the hotel’s front door, we were greeted by Steve, a tremendous valet! He genuinely treated us like we were the most important people in the hotel, right from the get go! Then, as we walked into the hotel, Judy welcomed us in with a smile, and explained to us what Valhalla had to offer. I felt like we were visiting with friends! Our room was beautiful, and quite festive, as our youngest daughter purchased the “Celebrate You” package for us! Later that evening, we went to have a drink at the Sky Bar, which has beautiful Mountain Views! Matt was the bartender, who fixed us an Old Fashioned, a Jalapeño Margarita. DELICIOUS! Matt is full of personality, and was right on point both days we spent time with him! Lastly, we met Jerry Murdock, the owner. Jerry was as kind as can be, and is an absolute riot! Thank you Valhalla, for helping to make our 30th wedding anniversary a most special one! We will be back!”

“Great ice cream and lots of fun.”

“Best coffee! Better than Starbucks or Dunkin”

“Amazing matcha and a cool store. Couple of good spots for pics if you’re into that. Owners could take down most of the very negative and weird signage like to not move tables and that you’re on camera, etc”

“A great place to unwind listen to music and catch up with Friends. GREAT parking for motorcycles and close to everything in Helen. I definitely recommend this bar. The one issue is their restrooms. Some improvement needed there”

“I love it here, from gourmet coffee to rolled ice cream, you walk in for one thing and you end up with something you didn’t realize you wanted even more. Excellent staff and atmosphere. You really can’t ask for anything better than that. 10/10 recommend to locals and visitors.”

“We had such a wonderful weekend , and the staff was so very nice. We loved our room, it blocked almost all of the sound from Oktoberfest going on. We loved it so much that we booked it again for Christkindlmarkt in December.”

“LOVED the candles that I bought back in 2016. Just came to this page and head this little gem of a store is closed. I was going to try and find a way to order candles. I still have a few sandalwood candles left, now I feel like I shouldn't burn them. :(”

“My friend and I stopped here after playing mini golf next door. My friend lives in Clarksville and I was visiting her for a few days. There were plenty of options and the ice cream was very good! My friend said this is her new favorite local place now for the best ice cream.”

“I walked passed during my stay after arriving at my hotel, I was looking for a specific dish which they did not serve. The staff immediately saw me and greeted me, which was very welcoming. I showed him a picture of what I was looking for and to my surprise he said they would make it for me! They were extremely accommodating to my dietary needs.
Now the pictures I took was after the walk back to my hotel, so they do not look the best. But let me tell you, tasted PHENOMENAL! Every bite shocked my taste buds! It was hands down, the best Mexican I have tasted. It's 9am as I write this and I am craving more! I will definitely be stopping back one more before my trip ends.”

“Great atmosphere and karaoke! Good kickoff to our yearly Octoberfest trip!”

“Stopped during Oktoberfest based on a YouTube recommendation for best pretzel in Helen. They were right! Ordered the one with beer cheese and had a house ale with it. Superb.”

“Best French Dip sandwich I've ever had!!! Potato skins were delicious. Everything was fresh and hot. Seems like a locals spot, TV's everywhere. Smoking is allowed but wasn't terribly strong smelling. Highly recommend and we will definitely come back every time we visit Helen.”

“the food was different but good! I got the duck and loved it!”

“Great place it's a cool rainy night they have electric heaters on the bar music playing and friendly atmosphere.”

“My wife and I eat here for our anniversary and I can’t put the experience into words! The food was absolutely amazing and 100% the best German restaurant in town(I’ve been coming to Helen since 2004). Super authentic as the chef Aurel came out to ask how our meal was and spoke to us for around 20-30 minutes. Makes my wife and I who also cook very happy to see someone take such pride in their preparation. If you don’t try this place when in Helen you are missing out for sure! Thank you again Bodensee for such a great time!!!!!”
