Hollerbach’s — Restaurant in Sanford

Hollerbach’s at the Sanford Airport is a wonderful surprise—real food with flavor and care in a place usually known for grab-and-go meals. It’s connected to the well-loved two-story Hollerbach’s restaurant in downtown Sanford, and it shows. The dishes use the same ingredients and recipes, giving travelers a true taste of authentic German cooking without ever leaving the terminal.

I ordered the Wienerschnitzel and Jägerschnitzel, and both were excellent—crispy, tender, and properly seasoned. The only small miss was the absence of Rotkohl (red cabbage) and dumplings, which would have made it perfect. Still, what was served stood well on its own.

Their house beers are brewed specifically for Hollerbach’s and pair beautifully with the food. Service was equally impressive—Monika, our waitress, was friendly, efficient, and genuinely engaging. Even though mobile ordering is an option, it’s worth taking the time to order from a real person. This spot turns an airport meal into an experience...

Hollerbach’s is an absolute hidden gem inside Sanford Airport. The German food is top-notch — truly authentic and reminded me of the dishes you’d get in Germany. Nothing like the typical airport food; no microwaved meals or overpriced bland plates here.

The service is outstanding. Perry took great care of us with genuine kindness, and Monterro is an outstanding cook — everything came out perfectly prepared. Prices are reasonable, the cocktails are excellent, and they offer several beers on tap, including some great German options.

A surprising find in an airport, and definitely worth a visit. Highly...
