First pub in Sydney and it was a smash! Let’s get into the review.

The classic, rustic interiors, barrels as tables, and servers dressed in traditional German attire instantly transport you to a Bavarian beer hall. Add some great live music to the mix, and the vibe is a solid 5/5.

Beer – The Real Star of the Show:
Their German beers on tap are the highlight. We tried:
•	Munich Lager – 5/5: Crisp, light, and refreshing.
•	Paulaner Weissbier – 5/5: Fruity, smooth, and super refreshing.
•	Löwenbräu Original – 5/5: Classic, smooth, and perfectly crisp.

Drinking from the giant steins genuinely makes you feel like a Nordic warrior – the whole beer experience is perfect. That said, be ready to spend a little more than usual. It’s not cheap, but worth it for the experience.

Food – A Bit of a Mixed Bag:
We weren’t there for the food, but tried a few things:
•	Classic Pretzel – 4/5: Good but not mind-blowing (speaking as someone who makes pretzels). The salt wasn’t evenly sprinkled, and the butter was a bit much.
•	Cheese & Jalapeño Pretzel – 3/5: Felt like overkill. Too much cheese drowning the pretzel. Could definitely be simplified.
•	Potato Salad – 3/5: Basic and unremarkable.
Apple strudel - Could be better 3/5

Service:
Service was decent – prompt and attentive enough, especially considering it was a busy night.

Overall:
Go for the beer, stay for the vibe. The food is secondary but does the job. Perfect spot if you’re chasing that traditional beer hall experience right in Sydney.
Rating: 4.5/5 (Only loses half a point for food and pricing.)

Although the menu is not extensive, the items listed are the ones that would be generally ordered the most. The large Pork Knuckle is the most popular from what I have seen for lunch and dinner. It is huge, and it tastes real good. Definitely worth a visit.
The beers are great, too!

It was busy on a Friday evening though we got a table inside pretty quick. I was surprised at how roomy the place is inside. The atmosphere were brimming with live music and performance and it was quite loud.

We ordered the Munich platter for sharing and Heidi’s forest salad as well. The platter was huge for the two of us and I liked the sausages a lot. The crackling pork belly and the pork knuckle was a tad too salty to me though I liked the tenderness and juiciness of the meat.

The wait staff were very friendly and polite to us and we didn’t wait long to get our food served even though the place was busy. Thumbs up to the good service and good food.

Came here with work colleagues and it was a fun night. Great atmosphere, love the live band and the service is good. We had the Munich platter great selection loved the pork knuckle, sausages, schnitzel and gravy! We asked to swap out the mash for chips which was the best idea! Heaps of food so make sure you come on an empty stomach!

Had such a fun night! The food was delicious, the service was awesome and the vibe was just right. The live band trio was the cherry on top - so much fun! Our waiter, Juan, was super attentive, even with a packed house. Can’t wait to come back! 🍻
