With tax season is over, Andy Walker tells us, they’ve begun the process with liquor licenses, permits etc., with the government to officially change the name of Schweinehaus to Stanley Bar-B-Que.
Stanley is Andy and David’s father. He passed away around Christmas.
“We wanted to honor him,” Walker says.
Schweinehaus opened in 2014 as a German beer hall with a Southern take on German food. They changed focus to strictly barbecue (with some of the favorite German dishes remaining) in 2016.
They have a temporary sign ready to go to place over the “Schweinehaus.” They hope to be done with the process in the next week or so.
Walker says of his father, “He’s the only reason we own a restaurant.
“He loved barbecue. We love it too.”
