goulash - i fell in love with goulash after having it in budapest and im just so OBSESSED with paprika - this was not bad but a bit heavy; i wish the soup was lighter and less salty - meat was super tender though! rating: 3/5 - honestly i would never come to this type of bar and wouldn't come back AHAH it's just not my vibe but for big groups it's pretty solid - the food not bad but not amazing; like I wouldnt crave it - ambiance is giving vikings idk why - great service IG: @nom.noms.only read more

Radegast Hall and Biergarten - Pubs Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I have been coming to Radegast for so many years. If I look back, I have never had a bad time here and I believe this is my 1st review. Better late than never? The food, the beers (and cocktails), the service and the people here are just awesome! Last night they had the large screen up to watch World Cup Soccer in the main hall, plus A TV near the bar! Its like going to heaven!! I need to shout out to Nick, Brian, Soju (hope i spelled her name right), and of course Shawn or Sean, for being great hosts and always having a great time, especially over the years I have brought many guests to drink and dine here! Never disappointed!!! Make sure you go to the separate grill in the hall for the wursts (German sausage). They are all so good. The main menu also boasts many great dishes as well. read more

I came here during a World Cup match and I sat outside. The tables are a little unleveled due to how the street is designed. The beer is good and you get a good amount. The waitress definitely forgets about you if you sit outside so I recommend sitting inside if possible. I waited 15 minutes for her to come back around to order some food. read more

My friend and I each had wonderful salads and enjoyed sitting outside while dining. Loved our server. Great beer list. I will definitely return the next time I am in Williamsburg. read more

Radegast is one of the most reliable Biergarten's in NYC because there is usually a wonderful band playing and enough space for a seat. I've been here many times over the years, mostly for birthday parties and for when folks come to visit me from out of town. It's a great place to bring your dad. It's also a great place to fly solo to if you just want to sit at the bar and watch the band for a beverage. I'll always go back, thank you for the good memories! read more

I'm kind of sad in just now visited for the first time. Really fun atmosphere that transports you across the world. Crowd was really lively. The latkes are delish--I'd come back to try more dinner menu items, but this time I indulged in the casual snack foods. Really fun seeing duck sausage as an option. Tasted great too. read more

Came with my friends for the big Saturday Oktoberfest event. We luckily arrived early enough to get a big table outside for all 11 of us. Our waitress, Dani, was awesome and thanked us for being a great table with tequila shots at the end. Imagine 11 SEC school grads drinking a gallon of beer each, then trying to muster up the courage for a tequila shot. We got all of our drinks very quickly, I was so impressed by all the running around she was doing. There was a line around the corner and down the block all day. Inside was soooo crowded. If you're not in the mood for extreme revelry, do not come for the Saturday event. We did the mug holding competition, divided into boys and girls. My noodle arms didn't stand a chance, but we did it for the plot. The ticket to participate is $25, which considering you get a free pint with it, is worth it. It's not easy.... The invite the winners back for the next week to go for the glory again. The band playing was amazing. No singer, just horns and drums playing the hits and the crowd singing along. I would 100% recommend this place for anyone looks to day-drink. I'm sure it's fun at night, too, but we were gone by 8pm. read more

Great venue for some rowdy fun. Conveniently located in Williamsburg, the location is very central and not hard to miss. If you are looking for a place to have fun with friends I'd recommend checking Radegast out. The venue is massive with plenty of bench space inside and outside. To add, the service is great and very attentive. Selection wise, you definitely have to get any of the beers. My personal favorite is probably anything on draft - I love how cold and crisp it is. It all pairs really well with the food which I will talk about now. When you're feeling the beer, any of the sausages from the grill will hit the spot. I love bratwurst, you are just tasting the sausage in it's purest form without too much additional seasoning. Outside of that, some personal favorites have to be the schnitzel, pierogi, and pretzels. On a nice day, I will be back for sure. read more

Always a gregarious time at the very authentically designed Bavarian themed Radegast Hall & Biergarten in trendy Williamsburg Brooklyn! Fun large space with plenty of long wooden tables & benches inside and outside for large groups. Plus a few smaller tables with chairs. They offer a very good variety of Bavarian German Biers & selection of many grilled Wursts, frankfurter, sausages in addition to other menu items. Along with a variety of mustards, pickle and sauerkraut. Tonight they featured a Tiki Bar themed roast pork menu. Get the Giant pretzel with their yummy beer cheese dip! Tonight the place was very darkly lit, on a warm night with little air flow thus, a bit hot and stuffy. Thankfully the AC kicked in around 9PM. However, we were happy to enjoy the Live Band performing as we are big fans of the very talented musician Frank LoCrasto on keyboard accompanied by bass, guitar and drums! Good times! The waitstaff are wonderful btw. Prost!! Danke fürs Lesen read more

We visited Radegast twice on our recent trip to Brooklyn, and enjoyed it both times! The first time we went was on a Friday night when it was packed and the second time was on Sunday afternoon when it was much slower. Both times we had kind and attentive servers! The beer was great and there were lots of options to choose from, plus the grill on Friday night really hit the spot with an excellent jalapeño cheese sausage on a pretzel bun with sauerkraut and homemade mustard. Our friends ordered off their dinner menu Friday and really enjoyed the roasted chicken and burrata salad, as well. Definitely a fun, and historic, place to visit in Williamsburg! read more

If you want to go to an authentic beer garden and have a great time, this is the place to be. Don't expect fancy decor, it's not a French bistro. The decor represents what it is supposed to be. There is a lot of history and its authentic. You go for the beer, the food, and the atmosphere. There is a lot of bench seating without cushions so it's not your typical restaurant. I just wanted everyone reading this to be prepared. You have to go in with an open mind. I came here with a friend of mine that I know since about the fourth grade. It's loud, so be ready. The staff were very courteous and made great recommendation's. They have more than a dozen beers on tap and you can get them in three different sizes. The small is pretty big, probably 12 to 16 ounces. They have more than a dozen bottled beers, cocktails, wines and can probably make any drink you want. Prices are very reasonable, especially for Williamsburg. There are two sides to the food portion of the menu. You have the dinner items on the left. You order those from your server and they will bring them to you. On the right side of the menu are the grill items. You have to go get up and order those from the grill area in the back of the restaurant. All the food had great taste. We wanted to sample as much variety as we could. There were four of us and we ordered the borscht soup, French onion soup, potato latkes, truffle mushroom flatbread, German potato salad, venison sausage, burger, beer fries, and Veal Schnitzel which comes with sides. For drinks we had the 2.5 liter Weihenstephaner Helles beer, the Stiegel Goldbeau beer, DAB, and Moscow mules. Our waitress was from Venezuela and was great. I'm sorry I did not catch her name. I would highly recommend them if you want to just dive into the beer and bar experience. read more

This is the perfect spot for a good old fashioned celebration! Everyone is cheerful and drinking and having a great time. They actually have a great selection of beers and I was impressed how quickly a server found us each time given how crowded it was. It wasn't even 2 minutes from when I arrived that I had a menu in my hand to order. It's a younger crowd and can get pretty packed on the weekends, but it is an awesome vibe and would recommend it for a big group! read more

As they say in German - "Wunderbar!!!" The ambiance takes me back when I had visited Germany. The setting and layout is your typical feel as if you were in Germany at one of their local bars. Wooden floors, wooden tables, even the bar is entirely wood. Fully stocked. This spot is one of the oldest German bars in Williamsburg. Fantastic German restaurant to have a beer and relax. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Friday afternoon and decided to grab a few beers with friends. Wasn't that busy. Yet. Grabbed a few pitchers and ordered food. The food and beer were the best part of the entire experience. According to my friends, absolutely amazing sausage and house made dipping sauces. If you are reading this review, you should definitely go here for the best German beer. If you are looking for a great bee spot, great environment, and food stop by. read more

Rude and extremely slow service at the bar. We stood there for more than 20 minutes while watching other customers get served around us. When we tried to get a bartender's attention, he responded with an attitude and even cursed at us. He still refused to take our order and continued to ignore us. There's no excuse for treating customers this way. If you enjoy being ignored and spoken to disrespectfully, then this is the place for you. read more

Radagast Hall and Biergarten is and always will be a New York, German beer hall staple for me. Located in North Williamsburg, Brooklyn, New York, I've been going to this location on and off for more than 20 years and it has never disappointed. The space is incredibly large with a good size bar in one room where they play live music and have a couple built-in sit down tables, an additional large hall area with picnic benches and a grill for food, and a separate back room with a stove fireplace capable of being booked out for smaller parties. During the day the vibe is joyful and you have tons of natural light. During the night the lighting is muted golden, and a great spot for date nights, as well as large groups and holidays. Food is excellent German beer hall style with fresh sauerkraut, tons of mustard options, thick, delicious sausages, and a variety of other food served, including hamburgers for the faint of heart. Beer selection is extensive and delicious with a focus on that German/European beer style. Every time I live in New York or visit New York, I come to Radagast. Stay open forever! I love you. read more

This is a great hangout spot with colleagues, friends, semi large groups! The service, zeee nom noms, and the mellow tones really gives you that chill vibes. Be warn it's semi dark in there so reading the menu can be slightly a challenge. Overall their kitchen staff made the best noms I've eaten. THe chops! Oh man! Juicy as juicy can be! Heads up it takes time for them to make it so definitely put it in if you're not planning to stay too long. As for there grill side of the place where you have to order separately from the bar/kitchen. I definitely recommend. The Kielbasa, frankford, and Bratwurst is oh so good! Forget the bun! Just do the sampler! Their house mustard is also devine! Not too tart, very smooth, and rich textures. Their burgers were on point! The grill man knows what's he's doing! I definitely recommend this spot. It's a great summers hangout. If you're feeling hot inside got AC. If you feeling for some just warm weathers they have a semi open out seating by the grill man! read more

We came here for a group dinner on a Friday night. It was not too packed which was a relief. We had a large table for 15 people. They were showing the Euro Cup on the screen which a good number of people came for. At nine they had a live band performing. They were very talented and put on a great show. The crowd did get larger as the night went on. People were dancing on the floor and having a good time. It did not get super overcrowded as I read in previous reviews. Maybe it was a slow night but everything there seemed reasonable. We had a large party so we were able to try out the different kinds of beer. They have a large variety so you can go from light to dark quickly. They have a .5 liter size to a full liter. There were several cocktails available as well. If you wanted to order something from the grill you had to go up and order there separately. We ordered the sausage platter which gave your choice of three options. This was good to try the different sausages at one time. They were cooked well and tasted great. The other patrons ordered some of the appetizers and burgers which were great as well. I have never been to Germany but I assume this is what it tastes like. Overall it was a chill night. I haven't spent much time in Williamsburg but it seems like a great location to be in. read more

I was in Williamsburg shopping and went to get back on the L to Manhattan but the transit Gods for some reason shut the line down. Since I was hungry I wandered into Radegast's for lunch. It was a Tuesday early afternoon and the place was deathly quiet. Since I was by myself I took a seat at the bar. The bartender handed me a menu and a glass of water and explained how service went. I ordered a glass of Gruner Veltliner because even though it was a beer garden Gruner is my favorite wine. I ordered a beet salad for lunch. Since it was so quiet Matt, the bartender, and I got into a chat and it turns out that we both hail from upstate NY. The wine was great, the salad was fantastic and Matt was a doll. If I ever find myself back in Williamsburg I'll stop again. read more

fun chill place and some good brat, definitely not the best i've had but also not the wurst ;) came here on a thursday night and they had nice live music and it was a fairly chill vibe. service was fast and got some food from the grill and dinner menu to share. sometimes you just need a beer and kielbasa night and this did it for us. the latkes and loaded fries were also good! they were nice to give us some free extra fries they had. the mustards were also REALLY good haha. overall def a fun place for groups and want to check out their other events! read more

We came here on Saturday around 3pm, 3 pre-made aperol spritz and a couple shots deep which is lowkey a lot for me at this point in my career. I'm on the back 9. I don't have the same lift I once did. Father time is truly undefeated. I walked in here blown away at the energy that couldn't help remind me of the atrium at Lambda Chi Alpha in my glory days at USC. Patrons standing on benches with their drinks, guys needing one more drink before they try to talk to that one girl, a few people WAY too drunk where you're thinking "damn his homies gotta get him home," heads bobbing to some live music that is loud enough that you need a light yell to communicate, all as the natural light from the sun floods in through the skylights to illuminate all the faces in the place At the ripe age of 28, I was on my "I'm lowkey too old for this..." until I went and got a $25 Stein that took me all the way through the end of the day. On another note, day drinking has become FAR superior to night drinking in my twilight years. You wake up with no hangover, you can get all cozy in bed knowing you already hit your socialization quota and get no FOMO, you can see what people actually look like, and something about aperol flooding my veins when the sun rays are hitting my Mexican skin just feels right. My only regret is that I didn't get a pretzel because my one true love in this life is a good ole soft pretzel, and I saw one go by and it was looking at me CRAZY. If I ever get back here, there will be a red dot on that Munich Pretzel... PROST! IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_reviews read more

They have local brass bands every Sat from 3-6, no cover. So they wld be 5 stars for that alone. They also have the freshest & best selection of German beer on tap in NYC, incl the best beer in all of NYC - Zwicklebier, aka unfiltered pils. They are the only place in NYC that has it on tap. I've been coming for many years for the Zwickle only, & finally tried the food. It's not cheap. It's probably prohibitively expensive. The portions are small. The quality of the ingredients is SUPER high, & the food is delicious & off the hook. But beyond my budget. But now that I know how good it is......... read more

Joined a friend who was in from out of town for lunch, and while the food was good, I was a bit taken aback by the need to hold a card for the table, especially since we were seated in the main dining space, on a rather empty afternoon. My friend also had to go to the Grill area to order his dish, and pay separately for that. Our server wasn't rude, but certainly not super friendly or attentive either. I've visited Radegast before, and while I may return, it won't be the first place I'd run to. read more

I had a really great time here last night. I love the ambiance. Our bartender was great. When you walk in there is a very large oval bar. There's another area separate from the bar where they serve food and is child friendly. I didn't try any of the food but I am definitely coming back. I would recommend this place for anyone who wants to have a drink and a good time. read more

This place is okay for some day drinking. We went on a rainy Saturday afternoon and it was pretty chill at first. As the afternoon went on, this place got packed with obnoxious and pretentious people. So if you want to avoid that vibe, I'd go early. They had a band and the place went crazy, people standing on the tables and filling up the Biergarten area. This bar is spacious and has 3 different seating areas. I would highly recommend the main bar area, grab a table closer to the windows. If you like a loud and lively bar with German beer and German food, this is a spot for you. It is a kid friendly bar, but I don't recommend having the kiddos there after 4pm when it starts to get crazy. The food was decent. Not much on the menu that's gluten free friendly. We tried the loaded beer cheese fries which was pretty good and was big enough to share. We also tried the Munich Pretzel, your typical large pretzel with a pickle, mustard and beer cheese for a $3 up charge. The latkes & eggs were okay, they came with a side salad - nothing to rave about. The Biergarten has a different limited menu, they have a grill for brats, sausages, cheeseburgers, veggie burgers, chicken sandwich, and fries. On Saturday/Sunday the bar has a brunch menu that you can order from until 5pm, then they move to a dinner menu. You can't go wrong with a stein full of German beer! They have some great beers on tap! The service is slow and almost non-existent at times. We sat at a table and the servers couldn't figure out who was taking care of our table. They eventually figured it out after a long wait. Overall, it was cool until the younger crowd piled in during the latter part of the afternoon. Not sure I'd come back, there are plenty of other great bars in the area. read more

Love the vibe and the beer selection at Radegast Hall, but the way the bill was handled left a bad taste. We ordered a 0.25L Chimay Dorée, which the menu clearly lists at $11, but were charged $15. On top of that, they didn't provide an itemized receipt--just the total and a tip prompt, making it easy to miss the overcharge unless you're paying close attention. read more

Terrible management and hospitality. They discriminate against people with service dogs. It doesn't take 3 people including management to make a scene and ask more than they are legally allowed to in order to verify an animal is a service animal. Great everything except for staff which needs to be retrained properly. Manager was on duty in the afternoon today male. Also male with glasses and beard was telling me my psychiatric assistance dog isn't a service dog and not allowed. Manager also did nothing to fix the issue besides back up the fact their employees need to make sure dogs are actually service dogs. Follow up on this would be appreciated. read more

The service is always friendly and fast, but it can get busy busy and pretty loud on weekends. There's good German bar food available and they also have brass bands with a modern twist playing. read more

This is a an awesome Beer-garden in Brooklyn- easy to access from Manhattan. Large, immersive atmosphere, and great beer on tap, with the best version of fries I've had- crisp, well sized and a perfect crispy and salty companion to the crisp beers that flowed. On Fridays, they also have live bands perform which transforms the place for the better. Come early on a Friday, enjoy catching up with friends before the music, because once that starts, you will just be busy grooving to the beats because it can get too loud to talk over. They also have a live grill at the back of the hall from where you can get yourself bratwursts with bun, fries, curried version, and a variety or assorted sauces- mustards, ketchup, horseradish based etc, to pick up. For a good time with friends, with good German grub and beer, and prompt service, this place is a go-to spot read more
