Amazing experience! The food was delicious, the ambience fantastic with the live Polka band, group singing and dancing. All of the servers were kind and friendly! It’s not a place for a quiet date as it gets loud. Totally worth the experience!

A festive atmosphere surrounded Hofbrauhaus with the Christkindlmarkt huts and vendors. The hot chocolate is outstanding. We enjoyed dinner upstairs in the King Ludwig room. Still festive, but far enough from the band that we enjoyed pleasant conversatios among our group.

We went for the vendors that were there and dinner there. We did make reservations. I suggest that especially on the weekend. Our food was fantastic. The Goulash was amazing. It's enough for 2. I also had the potato pancakes, very good. My husband had the 4 different sausage dinner. He couldn't stop saying how good it was. This is our 3rd time there. Will definitely be back.

We visit Hofbräuhaus every year during the Christmas market, and it never disappoints! The food was incredible, and the service was top-notch. Special thanks to the manager, Mert, for his outstanding hospitality. Can’t wait to come back.

A fun holiday atmosphere, but my personal food items were mediocre, potato pancakes were soft like they'd been sitting in a warming pan instead of crisp and rather bland. The chili was only warm. Others were disappointed in the French fries which also felt like they'd been warming and weren't fresh and crispy. Others enjoyed their meals. The
