Thanks to you, our dreams have come true. For over a decade, we have strived to provide you, our Guest, with a high quality meal with a lot of Gemütlichkeit (a state of well-being and enjoyment you feel when sharing good food and drink among friends and family). We pride ourselves on having an attentive and well-trained staff who prepare, sell, and serve our high quality products. Our specialty is German cuisine featuring sausages, cold cuts, Schnitzels, breads and desserts based on Hollerbach family recipes. Back in 1981, Linda and I first started thinking about opening our own restaurant. We opened the Willow Tree Café in August 2001 and thanks to you, our guests and our great staff, we have been growing ever since. We have expanded the restaurant from the initial 75 seats to our current capacity of over 275, which includes a full service bar. In 2011 we opened Magnolia Square Market, a true German Delikatessen where you can find your favorite German products, including gluten- free items, wine, and beers, as well as fresh baked goods. We want to thank the residents of Downtown Sanford and our Business Neighbors for letting us be a contributing partner in making our town great. We encourage you to enjoy our food and hospitality, and we welcome you into our family. Vielen Dank! Linda, Th eo, and Christina Hollerbach and our dedicated staff Where GemËtlichkeit Happens 1 Fassbier - Draft Beer Das Boot Th e tradition began in the 1800’s when a German military offi cer promised his troops he would drink beer from a boot if they were successful in battle. His soldiers won the battle, so the offi cer arranged for a victory dinner and had a glass boot made for the occasion. Th e soldiers reveled in their victory by chugging from this infamous glass boot. Drinking from Das Boot has evolved into a tradition enjoyed by many. Drinking Das Boot is about sharing the joy of life among friends. Customarily, the person who fails to fi nish the boot pays for the beer. Here at Hollerbach’s we have four house rules: 1. ere must be at least 4 friends for the 2 Liter Boot or 5 friends for the 3 Liter Boot 2. Das Boot should never touch the table - it’s considered BAD LUCK 3. Please do not toast Das Boot with another glass - they are very fragile. 4. Most importantly, always point the toe towards heaven! Just remember the whole point of Das Boot is to celebrate responsibly with friends and have fun, not to make a fool.

Th ey have been creating excellent Moselle wines from their vineyards since 1660. On their recent trip to Germany, the Hollerbachs were fortunate enough to meet with Johannes Selbach and a get a private tour of his beautiful vineyards located in the coveted middle Mosel (Mosel-Saar-Ruwer) region in the town of Bernkastel-Kues. It is on the steep, slate-soil vineyard sites with favorable southerly exposure that you will fi nd the fi nest Rieslings. Th e walls of the valley protect the vines from the chilly winds overhead and position the vines at a more direct angle to the northern sun. Th e slate soil warms quickly and holds heat into the night. Th e nearby river helps moderate the cool evening temperatures and refl ects even more sunlight onto the vines during the day. All of these things work together to produce ripeness levels that would otherwise be impossible so far north. Johannes and his wife are passionate about their craft and we are thrilled to provide their wine for your drinking enjoyment. Trink wein und erwirb, trink wasser und stirb!
