We had a wonderful time at Gustav’s! The ambiance is fantastic classic Leavenworth vibes. For food, the Garden Ortega was hands-down one of the best vegan burgers we’ve ever had. To top it off, their root beer is amazing. Highly recommend for any vegans (or anyone else) looking for a great meal in town!

The service and atmosphere was great. The food however was little to be desired. Cold chili, soggy fries, and apple strudel that tasted like it was a little Debbie’s cake. The food was very unoriginal, plain and cheap. Step down from a diner.

Our food was delicious. Our group of six ordered, The Ruben, fish and chips, bison burger, wings, BLT and bratwurst. All six meals were so good!

The Schnitzel sandwich was one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. Server was friendly and quick, even for a busy December weekend.

The French fries were not good -- no salt and pretty cold. The schnitzel was pretty good.

Restaurant atmosphere and interior decorations is par for the town. Food leaves a little left to be desired. Overall, the onion rings were superb. The remainder of the food was mediocre quality. Restaurant in my opinion has gone downhill in food quality in the last couple years. Although the place is very busy during holiday weekends when the town has their lights in full display. The food could be better.
Wonderful place, great vibes, krampus fest approved.

This place is a family tradition. We dine here every year for the holiday festival and I stop by on my way home from hunting. Forget what you think you want and order a patty melt with a side of au jus.
NW Comfy Cabins Vacation Rentals
As a local vacation rental management company welcoming guests year-round, we love pointing visitors toward restaurants that offer great food, friendly service, and a true Leavenworth experience. Gustav’s checks every box — and has been a longstanding favorite for both locals and travelers.
This Bavarian-style tavern sits right at the entrance to town and delivers warm, cozy mountain vibes with its fireplace, balcony views, and classic German-inspired pub menu. Our team and guests consistently rave about their burgers (especially the Gustav Burger and Bison Burger), the Reuben, fish and chips, bratwurst, pickle fries, and those legendary onion rings. Portions are hearty, flavors are on point, and the service is consistently friendly and attentive.
One thing we always appreciate about Gustav’s is its atmosphere — spacious seating, great people-watching, an inviting beer garden, and an excellent selection of local and imported brews. Whether you're visiting during a snowy winter weekend or a sunny summer evening, it’s the kind of place that feels like part of the Leavenworth tradition.
At NW Comfy Cabins, we’re proud to send guests here because Gustav’s delivers exactly what visitors hope for: comfort food, warm hospitality, and an unmistakable Bavarian pub feel. It’s particularly great for families, groups, or anyone wanting a relaxed meal after exploring the village.
If you're staying with us in one of our cabins, we highly recommend stopping into Gustav’s for a classic Leavenworth dining experience that never disappoints.

Very cute german pub with delicious food. Been going to leavenworth with my german family members for years and this is the first time I've been to Gustavs. I had a wonderful greeting and my server was very attentive and polite. Me and my husband loved the food and we're full for the rest of the day after 😆

We took our food to go. The brats and kraut were disappointing. It looks better than the taste. No love in this food. My kids burgers were cold and fries were soggy. We paid $60 and didn't eat half of it.
