history
Joe's Beerhouse was founded in 1990 by the German head chef Joachim "Joe" Gross. Gross moved to South West Africa , now Namibia, in 1986 to run the Kaiserkrone restaurant there with a business partner . However, when the business partner decided to return to Germany after three years , this restaurant had to be sold. Gross now wanted a rather small and cozy restaurant and then founded Joe's Beerhouse in Grimmstrasse on the northern edge of Windhoek-Central .
After just two years, it became necessary to move to a larger area. In 1992 Joe's Beerhouse moved to Independence Avenue . Almost 10 years later, the company moved again to Nelson Mandela Avenue in the Eros district , the current location in July 2019.
In 2007 Joachim and Antette Gross sold to an investment company. Joe's has been run by new tenants since June 2012.
