Heidelberg Haus

Heidelberg Haus is a slice of German Bliss in Indy Every visit to Heidelberg Haus has been a delicious detour into joy. Whether we're sitting down for a cozy bite or picking up one of their decadent cakes for a special occasion, this gem never disappoints. The food and desserts are consistently delicious. My wife always raves about the Black Forest cake—rich, chocolatey, and perfectly layered. My personal favorite is the Yellow Cake with Rum Fudge and Caramel Butter Cream icing. It’s got the kind of flavor that makes you close your eyes and do the happy fork dance. Yes, that's a thing now. Beyond the baked brilliance, the shop itself is a treasure trove of unique gifts and German groceries. From quirky trinkets to authentic imports, every shelf feels curated with care and charm. What seals the deal? The outstanding service. Warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. And the pricing? Surprisingly reasonable, especially for the high quality. You leave full—in both stomach and spirit—but your wallet doesn’t feel ambushed.

8/19/25 Angie was on duty and came over to take my cookie order. I get Almond Tartlet, Black Forest and Red velvet. I get three doughboys for myself, but hide them from my wife since I’m diabetic. Angie put them in a baggie for me. I’m glad Angie was on duty. She kept the same friendly attitude with the next customer. 8/14/25 Izzy was working when I came in to get my wife her order of cookies. Izzy was helping a few customers at the register, but she made sure to acknowledge me and made me feel welcomed. It didn’t take her long before she came over and helped me. This update is let everyone know that if Izzy is on duty you’re going to be welcomed! 7/30/25 This my wife’s favorite place to eat and get cookies when we’re in Indy. I’m here for work so I’ve been coming here once a week for cookies. They have a large selection to choose from. Each time I’ve gone in there’s someone available to help. They have a friendly staff. It doesn’t matter what time or day you go in you feel welcomed walking in. The cookies are sold by the pound. I usually spend about $20. Today Lilly was on duty and she was more than helpful as she answered my questions and waited patiently while I was texting my wife to get her order. Thank you Lilly for your great customer service!

OMG, I felt like I had just gone back in time and landed in Germany. The food brought tears to my eyes, it was exactly like Mom made. The atmosphere was charged to say the least. My only regret is that I live so far away from them. Everytime I find myself in Indy, I'm going back! I absolutely loved my experience at Heidelberg Haus. I got to meet the owner and his accent reminded of Mom's accent. Thanks for transporting back to my childhood.

Best lunch ever. It was a delightful combination of flavors that danced on my palate, leaving me completely satisfied. The fresh ingredients burst with color and taste, making each bite a joy. The atmosphere was perfect, with soft music playing in the background and the warm sunlight streaming through the window. I savored every moment, knowing that this experience would linger in my memory long after the meal was over. As I finished my last bite, I couldn't help but smile, feeling grateful for such a wonderful dining experience.

Happened upon this while visiting from out of town, I didn't eat at the restaurant but we did get several things to do. The pastries the had were delicious, particularly the custard filled honey drizzled one. But the star, beyond the fun outfits the staff wore and the general atmosphere was the pretzels. All I can say is it's a good thing I don't live closer, or I'd be eating pretzels until I pop.

I've been coming here for years. The decor is totally over the top which is quite entertaining. They offer a fantastic selection of all sorts of cakes and pastries, including things you will not find anywhere else in Indy. Service here is excellent. It's a great place for a hot meal that is authentically European, but my favorite thing to order is the iced coffee / coffee milkshake. It's served in a frosted mug or tall fountain glass topped with whipped cream sprinkled with cinnamon. Refreshing and delicious!

Lovely. It's such a unique place. From the moment we parked, we knew we were in for an experience. The outside of the building has a beautiful mural. Inside, the maximalist decor and various goods for sale hide hidden treasures. Tables tucked around every corner provide a unique dining environment for each party. The menu is simple, reasonably priced, and delicious. The baked goods are fantastic. The atmosphere is priceless.
