Is it really a beer brat if there's no sauerkraut on top? Well yea but it's not the same. Freezing cold day and in need of a quick bite running around town yesterday. Skip the drive throughs and hit up a solid choice at @newbohemia we kept is local in St. Paul, but they do have another location in Golden Valley. Something about their @surlybrewing Beer Brat just tastes like being a Minnesotan. Great staff who were helpful and engaging to talk menu choices with. Pro tip: ALWAYS ask your server/ bartender/ barista etc. what they love on the menu. If anyone knows what's the omg thing is it's them. I absolutely love when someone is passionate about the food they are selling at any establishment. If you've been in the industry you'll recognize that sparkle when someone tells you about the have to get thing is their face does this. My delish items that if you're here do yourself a favor and get em are: Surely Beer Brat Truffle Fries (it's a little extra, but does not disappoint) Honey Mustard dipping sauce (homemade, legit) Don't snooze on the table sauces. It's a flavor experience. Spicy Saison Honorable mentions were their homemade ranch and jalapeño aioli and the Juicy Lucy brat for a classic cheese brat vibe.

I did not try any hot dogs, and am only here to add to the spice of Yelp reviews, so if you're only interested in how the hot dogs taste, scroll on. Came here in the spirit of the Saint Paul winter carnival! Was informed by social media that participating locations would have special drinks! And when I hear special drinks, I am there. The place across the street with the participant signal wasn't openly promoting anything, so we tried here instead. I asked about it politely and was told, "No, we don't have anything for that." ...okay, whatever. Am wondering what the whole point of the whole promo event was for. But, we're here, so I asked for a Nütrl just to be nice. I gave the bartender my Texas drivers license, as that's where I'm from, and she looked at it and said, "I don't really like when someone so young has an out of state ID." Um, SORRY?? What am I supposed to do about that? Also, what underage drinker comes to a freaking hot dog restaurant and orders a Nütrl when I could just go to my local Circle K and get both without the interrogation. WHAT. EVER. I got my Nütrl, spilled it all over my boyfriend, and left. That's all. read more

Stopped in on Sunday, pretty quiet (no Xcel event til later) and had a Cajun Andouille Brat with carmelized onions and kraut with fries. Brat had great flavor with some heat . French fries with skin on were great with the side of pepper jack cheese. It's a Beer Hall vibe so it can accommodate big groups of people or get cozy and meet new people. The Bohemia Lager was a great choice to wash the meal down. Good amount of TVs for sport events and it's connected to the Seventh Street Truck Park to mingle and enjoy other food options as well. Customer Service was pretty friendly as well. Follow me for more reviews and comment on what I should try next. Yelp Elite 25! read more

New Bohemia - German brat plate - German Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

I've been here a handful of times after events at the Xcel. I usually go here when we want a few brews and a pretzel. The pretzel is giant and perfect to share in a group. The cheese sauce is pretty tasty. I haven't had other food items so I cannot review that. I wouldn't say this is a place I would choose over other options, but it's open late and convenient when you're down town. The bar gets pretty loud as it's connected to another bar. We went on a Friday and they had karaoke, so if you're into that, you can have some fun. The service at the bar was friendly and the food is served very fast. read more

As a single woman it can be hard to go out by yourself, LOVE going out to New Bohemia. Bartending staff are welcoming and the Security presence is awesome - makes you feel very comfortable. The vibe on Friday was really fun! Karaoke music was fun, DJ in the (connected) Truck Park was cool. The music helps set the energy! And it was extra fun allowing kids in with families using the wristband system. read more

In town for a concert and stopped here for a quick bite. The atmosphere is nice being right on the street with huge doors -like garage doors- that open to the street in front. Plenty of tv's inside and I love the "share" tables for dining. I got a braut with onions and slaw and it was very good. i loved the bread with it too. I also like the selection of sauces for your fries and also the condiments on the tables for your meals. Huge selection on brews as well. I'd go here again. We got there right at open, so it wasnt quite happening at that point, but I imagine it does get busy into the night and on games days. read more

Accidentally stopped into New Bohemia after a some kind of sports game ‍ and it was PACKED, but ordering and the service was fast. Luckily we found seating, but again it was sooooo crowded for such a big space. The vegan brats were so good I had to order one to go! read more

The restaurant is open and airy. It's bar like place. There are so many wursts that might be hard to choose from. Therefore, you would want to come back to try more. They have kids items, or you can order the sides for kids. All the tables are high tops. So if you prefer low top sitting, it might not be a best choice for you. The food is pretty good and flavorful. We enjoyed our choices which was duck and boar. The mac and cheese we ordered for our toddler was meh. The noodle was very soft but I guess that's not their specialty and maybe our child can not tell the difference. Took off one star is because the parking is very limited. read more

I stopped here for lunch on a Sunday (my son lives a block away). It was feeling like a good day for a brat, and I was quite happy with my visit. There were plenty of seating options .. we were the only ones there! Service was good. I recognized the bartender from a visit months ago, and it's always good to see low turnover. The seating is mostly large, shared tables similar to the ones you'd see in a beer hall in Germany. You'll undoubtedly find a beer you'll like as there are plenty to choose from. The happy hour beer options rotate regularly. The sausage offerings are also plentiful and interesting. I had the beer brat with kraut and sautéed onions and their *fabulous* fresh french fries . Nice size brat, it was cold kraut (versus the warm kind served in Germany), and nicely caramelized onions. The fries come with a choice of one of their eight(?) sauces, and I had the bacon blue cheese. Yum.my! My son had the wild rice sausage. read more

We were at the Science Museum for a Beer Fest and made it here afterwards for a night cap. Don't expect to get food at late hours as they weren't serving it. I'm sure we made it there on a Sat night around 11:30. We were hoping for food, but didn't effect our situation as were able to get a an IPA and sour beer while ordering an Uber. Both were great and bartender was nice. It was a super fun night to be there and you could tell by how crowded the place was on a Saturday night. The whole reason was they had one of the largest karaoke events in St Paul. So many people were singing up front with all the words on a huge big screen for everyone to see. Very young crowd, but playing music from all generations. I ate here a couple years ago with my dad before a concert at Xcel Energy Center and we had a couple bratwursts. The Juicy Lucy Wurst and Surly Hell Bratwurst's were packed with flavor. I bet all the brats are the same way. I'm craving their food again, so will have go for dinner soon. read more

I huge venue that's great for pre-concert drinks and food. I wasn't a huge fan of my lamb bratwurst, but the burger and fries were pretty good. You will pay a premium being close to the Xcel energy Center but it certainly is convenient! They have a huge selection of local and nonlocal brews. Service was friendly enough and decently efficient. We were there before a John Mayer concert, and they were tailoring the music to the crowd which was a nice touch. read more

I've only been to New Bohemia 2-3 times but I like it! We came here before an event at Xcel and while it was pretty busy, the Biergarten style seating made it possible to find a spot to squeeze in and the counter service is nice and quick. Sausage flavors for everyone, great fries. I love the giant pretzels even though it's a bit more like bread than pretzel - it's really just a vehicle for the house made mustards anyway. I'd love to see one in the north metro. It's a nice, casual change up from all the burger places. read more

Visited from New Orleans and the service was great. Such nice guys with awesome knowledge of local beers. Definitely a great spot to grab a beer - especially if you are going to the game. Get their house lager - only $3 and so good. read more

If you're waiting the game to start and it's the only place you can find a seat, it's fine. But would I choose to go here if that wasn't the case? Probably not. Service was lacking and it wasn't that busy. They forgot one of our items, food was just ok. read more

Check this place out! My brother and I stoped here on our way to a concert at the Xcel Energy Center. We had walked through this place before to get to the food truck park next door & had made a mental note that we had to try this place next! We ordered a beer and the HUGE pretzel with cheese. Wow, super fresh and so tasty. Loved the blueberry beer I ordered as well. Next time we are in the area we will be back! The service was quick and professional. No complaints! read more

Giving some love to New Bohemia in Saint Paul. We've always loved visiting their locations, and it's been a while since stopping by the St. Paul bierhaus. Their unique brats and an extensive tap list can't be beat! We had the classic wurst combo with New Orleans Cajun andouille sausage and Belgian cut fries, with a classic new Bohemia lager. Mango curry ketchup was a bit sweet but love the array of mustards to try! Check it out! read more

Nice beer selection, friendly bartenders and lots of screens for sports. They are attached to a food truck court so you can get stuff and move between them and New Bohemia (it appeared) which is nice if you feel like pizza or something not on their food menu. Their big menu item are the wursts and have a number of different types and combos. I took my bartenders recommendation and enjoyed the duck wurst and the fries. read more

We visited New Bohemia before a concert at the Xcel and had an awesome experience! This place is great for a large group. We got there early enough to secure one of the very large tables. And the counter service style made it super easy for friends to go order food or drinks whenever they wanted. I tried the chicken and apple braut with the hot peppers and onions. Surprisingly spicy and so good! They labeled their menu with what is dairy free or gluten free, which I really appreciate too. Awesome atmosphere, good beer selections, I'd definitely recommend. read more

New Bohemia - Chicken and Fuji Apple braut, hot peppers, caramelized onion, and fries! - German Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

This is one of those places that know what they want to do great and focus just on those basics and nothing else. The basics here being sausages and beer. And by George do they do a great job with the basics! My inner German was just having the best krauting day ever here. I came in for lunch and got a great special. Beer, beer brat, and fries all for $10. Not bad at all. There were only a few beers for me to pick from because of the special, but choices are not skimpy here. Lots of ways to wet your whistle here folks. I was also impressed as I sat down to drink my beer and wait for my dog that they have an assortment of mustards and ketchups, many of which are made right in the kitchen. You bet I tried every single one. I am a huge fan of the Mango Curry Ketchup, yum that stuff was amazing. The mustards were also very good and it was hard to land on one that I wanted to use on my brat. The fries that came with my food were definitely not store bought by made in-house. They were not as crunchy as I would like but that is what you get from homemade fries so I won't complain. The bun was pretzel bread and yes it was as good as that sounds. I love pretzel buns. Sadly, I would have to say the weakest part of my experience was the brat. It wasn't bad but it wasn't anything amazing. After being teased with their homemade ketchups and mustards I guess I expected something more extraordinary. In their defense, I did get probably the plainest sausage on the menu. Next time around I will try something more daring. read more

It was a beautiful evening so I was drawn in by the open air atmosphere. I got classic brat with classic coleslaw and mushrooms( my choice of two toppings). Muscles and bones made on site. The Special comes with a beer and fries. I chose wasabi Ginger Mayo for my fries and it was too sweet for my taste so I used ketchup instead. Lager was tasty. it was a Monday night so was it not very crowded and I enjoyed relaxing and watching all the people go by on the street out front. Service was good. Price is reasonable. read more

Had a hankering for a good brat with good mustard, and got that exactly. They have a lot of beer options and actually a fun array of mustard options. It was a warm, sunny day, so it was kind of nice that they opened up their huge windows & made it a borderline-street-patio experience. Fries, cheese curds, and dipping sauces are all pretty average. And the seating in there is not particularly comfortable. I think it's all stools. I'll probably come here again to just scarf down a brat again, and maybe try one of their more exotic options (brats made of alligator, wild boar, and rabbit) but I won't plan on it for a longer hangout. UPDATE: The seating isn't ALL stools. And I have been back for longer visits and enjoyed myself. This place gets noisy and crowded after Wild games at Xcel Energy Center. That can be problematic, but people seem to be having a great time. They also have trivia games on Wednesdays and Fridays, unless it's one of those Wild game nights. First prize is a $20 gift card! I learned that by winning it! read more

Quality beer. Quality food. Quality entertainment. This place hits all the right spots. I prefer this New Bohemia over the one in Northeast Minneapolis only because it offers a little more openness, but both are great. Highly recommend getting a larger order of the fries with cheese. The cheese isn't your normal cheesy fries and well make you're friends wonder why they haven't come here before. Any of the brats/dogs are great. Two toppings come with every brat and I can't tell you how amazing that is, so you better dress them up. I've watched a few games here on the TVs and come here after a game at Xcel Energy Center and this place doesn't disappoint. A reliable spot that you can always count on being a great choice that'll please all. read more

I love the concept of this place, and it is located in a popular area with lots of foot traffic in St. Paul. Having been to the Eagan location too, this one is much bigger in comparison. Upon entering you order, pay, and get a number. But if you are like us you divide and conquer, while the other is ordering, the other is scouting for a good place to sit! Set up like in a German brew house with long tables and bench seating, and some long tables with stools, there are lots of places to sit and several TVs all over the place. The wait is not long, they are cranking out the brats and delivering them to your table in no time. Plus, between the local beer options that you should be enjoying while you wait, there are enough distractions to any potential wait time. I had the smoked jalapeño and cheese brat with peppers and buttery cooked onions. We shared a basket of fries where we also had two choices of sauces- bacon/bleu cheese for this gal, oh and a pepper jack cheese sauce too! There are various mustards on the table to test out the palate, should you enjoy mustard on your brat! read more

Its sausages and beer. Good sausages and good beer. They have several locations around town and this one has the prime location about two blocks from the X. Its a big space with plenty of tables benches/stools and a long bar along the east side of the room. Order at the door on your way in and get your number so they can find you and then take a seat. Had the Surly Beer Brat and a hoppy beer. Split a large order of fries and that was plenty. You have options for basic style brats and more unique options like Cajun Andouille. Partnered with the extensive bar menu you can run up a big tab pretty easily. Its the kind of place that will do great in this location, particularly on event nights. Its trendy, but they also do a great job. read more

Had a great time visiting New Bohemia before a Wild game last week! We shared a giant pretzel, the juicy lucy wurst, and each had a beer for about $20 each with tip. Their happy hour isn't available on event nights which wasn't clear from the menu, so don't base your beer choice on that! The giant pretzel could be a whole meal for two people - I'd recommend splitting with at least 4. I'm not the biggest pretzel gal but this one + the cheese that came with was amazing. I also was a big fan of their wurst and their fries were amazing. Washed it down with their cider and left with full bellies for the game! read more

Nice place to kick it before you head to a wild game, or an event in St. Paul. Really good food. We came out on a Friday & Saturday night for karaoke, which was a blast. The bartenders are always a blast to talk too. They are always on top of their game. Always good if Truck Park is too packed we make our way in the large seating area and shot the crap with friends. read more

This new West 7th restaurant knows exactly what it is and makes no excuses: if you want beer and brats, you'll find the best of both (and a stellar variety of both) inside. During our Friday evening visit, we tried the "Super Premium" Elk Wurst and the "Adventurous" Jackalope Wurst. Each comes with two toppings (we opted for caramelized onions and kraut), and a $15 combo gets you the wurst with a side of surprisingly well seasoned fries (which also come with eight dipping sauce options, we chose bacon blue cheese) and a 16oz New Bohemia beer. All of it was perfectly delicious, and when packaged with an energetic atmosphere that mixes modern sensibility with old world charm, it's an experience we will definitely come back for. And they have Lift Bridge Farm Girl on tap, which is my wife's favorite! read more

This week my partner in crime and I tried Bratwurst! We will call her lil yang. Now, I'm not saying I'm a bratwurst know-it-all, but I definitely do enjoy brats, and I have been making my own beer brats for a few years, based on a family recipe. Last Sunday, we strolled up on this place, and it wasn't too packed, but it was welcoming and had a very comfortable feel to it. The space was open, had high ceilings, and lots of TVs. The TVs were normal size, and put up so high that is was a little hard to watch a game if that was your reason for visiting. I got the surly beer brat, I wanted to start classic my first time here. I got the combo, so I had fries, and a soda pop to go along with it. It was yummy. Lil yang got a Mango Habanero Turkey Brat, fries, and a water. She liked her brat a lot. Since this is the first time we have both attend this place, even though we really liked our brat choices, and would most definitely get them again. There is a list we still need to try, so that is something we will be doing on our future returns. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place if you are a Bratwurst lover, if you are a casual sports person, if you are a beer drinker, and just a chill person who enjoys people watching, and trying new things. read more

Was the food decent? Yeah sure. Was it worth 8+ dollars for a pretty standard hot dog/brat? No way. This place is counter service only, and their cheapest hot dog (an all beef hot dog like you could get an 8-pack of at Walmart for $3) was $7.50 a piece. Many hot dogs/brats were over $10. I went with my fiancé and future in-laws, and the bill with tip was almost $80. For that much, I'd expect great service, a real plate, a waiter, and real cups and napkins. I was also irritated that they charged $2 extra to get a vegan bun, even when you order the $10 a piece vegan brats! Cheap packaged buns are vegan. This shouldn't cost that much more. Basically, the food was fine but not anywhere near worth the price. read more
