Is it really a beer brat if there's no sauerkraut on top?…read moreWell 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.

Parking can be tricky; there's not really a lot here, so you have to get lucky with the street. Staff are great here. They are always fun to chat with and will make recommendations if you need them. On our most recent venture here, I tried the spaetzle. Hubs had a burger and got the beer cheese soup. I had a bite of the soup and it was so good. The spaetzle was a little plain, but so tasty. You gotta try a beer here too. I had the hefeweizen, which I loved. Definitely stop in the summer and enjoy the patio if you have the opportunity.

As someone born and raised in Franconia in Bavaria, I was really excited to visit Waldmann Brewery…read moreand experience what I hoped would feel like a taste of home. While I can appreciate the effort and the atmosphere, the food just did not quite hit the mark for me personally. The dishes felt more American influenced than traditionally German, and overall they lacked some of the authenticity and flavors I associate with Bavarian and Franconian cuisine. Unfortunately, we did not really enjoy the food as much as we had hoped. That said, the history and character of the building were genuinely impressive. The restoration work and historic atmosphere were easily the highlight of the visit and made the experience worthwhile from that perspective. I think people looking for a local interpretation of German inspired food may enjoy it more than someone expecting a more traditional experience.

Wow. Puts Auntie Annie's to shame, IMO…read more Their cup of pretzels are made to order with your choice of warm butter, garlic, Parmesan, all kinds of toppings, they mix them up in the bowl and season them as they go, so every bite is completely delicious.

Of course they are bite size, and so easy to share or have it all alone. They are really good with some cream cheese as well. While there isn't any seating on the place, there are plenty of tables right outside. Able to enjoy the day while eating in the mall. Of course overall my visit was superb with the food and customer service as well. So good to go back to try one their bigger pretzels since it looks so good.

Looking at the picture we knew we had to give it try. What cool comfortable place with lots of history behind the building. The owner served us lunch and provided a history behind the restaurant, the recipes and where they get their food products. Their bread is local and their meat is from Usinger's in Milwaukee, WI. I love that place and their products. Well let's get onto the food. I was brave and had the Smoked Liverwurst. Hadn't had it for 30 years. Since I went fishing with my grandfather. Boy it was awesome and brought back some memories. The owner gave me large slices of bread so I could make a sandwich. The mustard and fresh onions made it! My two colleagues were craving hot dogs, so they went with the Yoerg Sandwich. It's the flagship sandwich. A quartier pound dog with German cheese and a pickle spear. It was huge and tasty to say the least. It was only $9.95. Great price for lunch these days. We also had to share a pretzel that came with cheese and mustard. This has earned a spot on our lunch rotation.

We went to celebrate my mother-in-law's 89th birthday. There were 7 of us. The Gasthaus has a very…read morefun, authentic Bavarian vibe. An accordionist went from table to table playing classics like The Beer Barrel Polka and Edelweiss as well as some unexpected classic rock faves from the likes of Tom Petty, Queen and others. When they played happy birthday the entire restaurant sang along and enthusiastically chanted "Ziggy zaggy ziggy zaggy". It was a super fun time and my mother in law was happy. Most of us ordered one of the schnitzels. The portions are quite large. My wife and I split the jagerschnitzel. I don't really like to eat meat or fried foods, but there weren't a lot of other options. (Mob rule usually determines our restaurant choices when we go out with our in-laws). I felt it was kind of chewy and the mushroom sauce over salted and sadly lacking in actual mushrooms. That said, everyone else, including my wife, loved their food. My brother-in-law, raved about the roast beef with potatoes; however, he's not exactly a foodie. Bland, salty, overcooked foods are kind of his thing. My mother-in-law had the "pork knuckles". I don't know what exactly constitutes a pork knuckle, but the portion quite large. More like a pork leg, I'd say. She complained that it was way too much food, but somehow managed to put a pretty big dent in it, still saving enough for leftovers the next day. Fortunately, I was the only judgey food snob at our table and everyone else was more than happy with what they ordered. To drink, they had the usual German beers and wine. We ordered the Gluhwein, a spicy mulled red wine that is served hot. Very traditional and really good. I would definitely recommend it. If you want to experience fun, German night out, aren't concerned about your cardiovascular health and enjoy a hearty meat and potatoes type of meal, The Gasthaus Bavarian Hunter is worth a visit.

We had a party of ten, celebrating a 90"th birthday, they helped us celebrate with fun music. They don't provide anything special for the birthday person. The food is in the expensive side for what you get, it's bland at best. They also have a significant credit card surcharge, well beyond a normal credit card surcharge, for any restaurant we've been to. Thankfully we came up with the cash to save that outrageous "tax".

First time here. I rarely eat pretzels due to the carbs. This was on my way back after walking at a…read morepark. I ordered a cinnomin sugar and a plain pretzel. These are over $6 each! They also have breakfast sandwiches and smoothies. The pretzels were warm, soft, and good. I only had a sample of both. It's much better than concession stand pretzels. IDK, for $14, something for 2, not the greatest value. Dipping sauces are extra. I'm unsure if these are the same as most malls. Haven't been to a mall in years.

I've been to this location several times and the pretzels are always good. However, the service never matches the food. I went yesterday and it was the worst service I've had there by far. There was one car in front of me. When I got to the speaker there was no response for quite some time so I said hello. A girl with an extremely rude tone said "one moment." Ok, no problem. 10 minutes went by and she had not come back to check on me or take my order. So I thought maybe she forgot that I was there so I said, "Hello." She then got back on the speaker and in a very rude tone said , "I said one moment." She did not apologize to me when I got to the window or apologize for taking so long. I don't mind waiting for my food. What I do mind is when people are disrespectful. I hope the service improves because I really want this location to stay in business.

The atmosphere is relaxed, friendly, and perfect for hanging out with locals or bringing family along. The food is genuinely good and hits the spot--solid comfort food that pairs perfectly with the neighborhood brewery vibe. You can tell care goes into what they serve. The only small hiccup was with a takeout order: I didn't realize there was a special sauce that everyone apparently knows to get, and it wasn't offered when I ordered. I learned about my mistake the hard way when I got home and was promptly chastised by my mom for not getting the sauce Totally my fault for not knowing the local secrets--I'm not from around these parts! All in all, a great local gem with good food, good people, and a strong neighborhood feel. I'll definitely be back--and next time, I'll be sure to ask for the sauce.
