In business since 1886 and located in the heart of Columbus, Ohio’s historic German Village, Schmidt’s Restaurant and Sausage Haus is one of the finest German restaurants in the United States. If you haven’t had one of their brats, you haven’t experienced what makes Oktoberfest Oktoberfest (besides beer, of course).

Oktoberfest will have its own stand offering a variety of favorite German dishes. John Roberto, owner of Roberto’s Restaurant, will be preparing a host of items to keep Oktoberfesters’ mouths watering.

Located in Cleveland’s historic West Side Market, Frank’s Bratwurst was established in 1970. They have since garnered a reputation for serving some of the best brats in the Cleveland area. Their brats are so good, in fact, that Scene Magazine voted them the Best Brats in the Cleveland area.

Hofbräuhaus Cleveland was modeled after the legendary 400+ year-old Hofbräuhaus in Munich, Germany, so if you’re looking for authentic German cuisine, look no further. Steeped in Bavarian tradition, all of their German dishes are exactly what you would find in the heart of Bavaria.

One of the reasons I started The Pierogi Lady was because I just could not find good frozen pierogi. I would make mine from family recipes for my friends, and they encouraged me to start my business so I could share them with everyone.

Growing up in a small town, Sundays meant a day spent at Grams sharing good food with family – which always included a helping of her pierogi. I’ve carried on this tradition of making the perfect pierogi, using her recipes for you and your family to enjoy.

Our pierogi are all handmade, just like Grams, and we’re always trying different fillings. The more we experiment, the more we realize the possibilities are endless.

So be adventurous and search for your favorite. I know you are going to love our pierogi!

Old World Foods was founded in 1994 with just a single frying pan and hand grinder to create our delicious potato pancakes. The world kept asking for more and more of these treats so we moved the operation to a factory in the Slavic Village area of Cleveland Ohio.

In 2013 we decided to include additional family members to assist the growth of the company. We continue the successful branding of our existing product line and the launch of the additional product lines, assuring that Old World Foods will continue to exceed customer expectations for years to come.

My name is Steve Grosenbaugh, I’ve always been comfortable in the kitchen. I used to help my mom cook all the time. At 16 I enrolled in RG Drage Vocational School and entered the Restaurant Management program. There I was taught how to run a cafeteria with a limited menu and how to run a restaurant with multiple menu items. Just before graduation, I enlisted in the U. S. Army as a Cook. After basic training, I was shipped off to Fort Lee, Virginia for eight weeks of training in a Mess Hall. I would spend the next nine years of my life cooking in the Army and the Army Reserves. After getting out of the army, I spent 30 years as a welder. I’ve welded aluminum dump trailers, pneumatic, and belted scrap handling systems for automotive and other industries. I’ve also welded the light poles that you see along side highways. In December 2021, I decided to start a food trailer business. By July 2022, my trailer was fully functional and I quit my job as a welder. I’ve owned an operated Wheely Good Food since then.
