About Us
 

Bavaria is the largest state in Germany. It has a history of great food and beer, colorful festivals and lively music. Andreas Keller was established in 1989 by David Forchemer out of a love for Bavaria and the "gemütliche" (make yourself at home, comfortable feeling) restaurants there.
His daughter, Heidi, now owns and operates the restaurant and continues its long tradition

visiting relatives and finding new ideas.

We are also happy to support our restaurant by presenting our own
festival wagon which is pulled by several of our own Haflinger horses.

The Staff at Andreas Keller
Our Head Chef
      Anita Hamilton     

Born in Alsfeld, Hessen, Germany, Anita Hamilton learned cooking in a Catholic convent in Fulda, a few miles away from her hometown.  For four years she studied under a kitchen supervisor who had long lived in Munich, and was well-versed in cooking Bavarian specialties.
     Anita moved to Leavenworth in 1991, where she soon became part of the "Andreas Keller Family."  Anita oversees the smooth and authentic operation of the kitchen, and now, after more than (10) ten years, is a pivotal figure in the restaurant's history.
     In fact, many of the restaurant staff have been working in "the Keller" for years, and guests often ask for them by name.  Their individual personalities add to the warmth and friendly charm that has helped make Andreas Keller the success it is today.  The charm of the restaurant's decor, the winning staff, and the authentic Bavarian cuisine make for an unparalleled combination.  That is why Andreas Keller gets better every year!
