Over 50 different beers and good food
4 Star Rating: Recommended

12/13/2007 Posted by frap

We were a party of five on a Saturday evening without reservations so we had to go to the bar while we waited for a table. It was the best thing that could have happened to us. They serve over 50 different beers with many on tap. The bartender was very knowledgeable. We told him what we liked …dark, fruity, Sam Adams, and he recommended a beer for us to try. He was right on!!! We all loved his choices. Two rounds and probably eight different beers later we were seated. We ordered the Beef, Mushroom and Ale Pie, Sauerbraten and the Pork Schnitzel. All were good and the Sauerbraten was just as described...”melt in your mouth”. Make sure you get there early if you want a full selection of items. We got the last two Sauerbraten and they were out of several other dishes.

Pros: variety, good food

Cons: loud

Editor's Review

The city's second-oldest restaurant, a lone bastion of German cuisine, has changed little since it opened back in 1868.  See the full editorial review.
