The German Cafe, a local restaurant in Wilmington, has been serving the community for over two decades. It is known for its delicious German cuisine, including potato pancakes, Schnitzel, and strudel. The bratwurst plate and veal are also popular choices. The Reuben sandwich is highly recommended, with a generous amount of corned beef on lightly toasted pumpernickel bread. The atmosphere is charming and historic, creating a cozy environment that makes customers feel as if they are in Germany. Visitors often enjoy German sauerkraut, German sausage, and German potato salad, along with fresh German cakes and breads. The staff, including friendly servers like Emma, provides welcoming service. Many guests appreciate the refreshing German beer and the authentic taste of the food, often mentioning that the meals are delicious and the service is wonderful. Although some note the restaurant has become run down and in need of renovation, the overall experience and authentic German dishes make it a unique spot in Wilmington. Despite occasional shortages of German beer and German chocolate cake, diners still find the Reuben and Polska kielbasa to be excellent choices.
