Moonshine Pao Bar & Grill www.moonshinegrill.com

Moonshine Pao Bar & Grill is housed in a part of the old Waterloo Compound, an original grouping of some of the very oldest commercial buildings in Ausn. Located where the preAusn 1835 selement of Waterloo was established, Moonshine is steeped in the early history of the city.

In 1852, a German seler named Henry F. Hoeintz built a log cabin in the northwest corner of the Waterloo Compound. Hoeintz hauled freight to and from Mexico and also sold goods from a spring wagon he drove around the village of Ausn and into surrounding counes. Shortly aer construcng the cabin, which was taken down in 1866, Hoeintz built a small building nearby to serve as a warehouse for his store of trade goods and as a corncrib for his mule team. This building later became known as the “Sunday House.”

The Sunday House, now over 150 years old, earned its name because of a common arrangement between city and rural German selers; on Saturdays, Hoeinz would empty his goods from the Sunday House and let rural families stay overnight, so that they could visit the markets and aend Sunday Church in Ausn the next morning. There are 65 historic Sunday Houses in Fredericksburg and another 35 in the New Braunfels area, and while there used to be more than 30 in Ausn, over the years they have been torn down one by one. Hoeinz’s Sunday House is now the last one standing in Ausn. The cedar posts and limestone walls are original, as are the ceiling and the interior beams. The brick floor was added in the early 1900s. The Sunday House is now a popular space to hold a small private event at Moonshine, and certainly one of the most unique dining rooms in all of Ausn.

In 1854 Hoeinz purchased the Waterloo Compound (the land extending from Red River to Waller Creek) from the State of Texas for $112 and built a two story building of Ausn "stack" limestone and yellow pine on the southwest corner. He used the large room on the ground floor as a dry goods store and the upper floor as his residence. The ground floor of the building is Moonshine’s main indoor dining area.

Hoeinz’s daughter, Catherine Louise, married Adolph “Dutchy” Reissig in 1866. Adolph built, adjoining the store, a large room that became a domino parlor and a saloon. There is a large cellar below the saloon and it is said that there Dutchy made wine from Mustang grapes grown on the property. Today, Moonshine stores its extensive wine collecon in the same cellar. In the late 1870s the Carriage House was built for the carriages of the two families, and today funcons as Moonshine’s Carriage House Bar. The Sunday House and Carriage House remain the only true examples of their architectural style le in Ausn. In 1880, Hoeintz died and the Reissig family purchased the store and property from the estate. The saloon operated unl shortly aer Prohibion ended, when a large door was cut through to the store. It became one large dry goods store, which stayed in business unl 1952, owned and operated by the Reissig family. The store had then been open for 98 connuous years.

Between 1952 and today, the building has been operated by a number of small businesses and has seen many careful restoraons. Established in 2003, Moonshine is the second restaurant to occupy the space. The Hoeintz‐Reissig Store, as it is officially known, is on the Naonal Register of Historic Places, and is an important part of Ausn’s cultural and architectural heritage.
