COMMUNAL SEATING, EVENTS & OKTOBERFEST
I had eaten there w/ friends and really enjoyed the vibe with their hip, casual, picnic table communal tables, so I had tried to book an event there. Sadly, due to a relative passing I had to cancel the event. I can't commend their manager, Bram, enough; He was willing to work with me far more than any of the dozen other places I explored. After asking his advice for my budget, he guided me towards non-October dates so I could get a better rate; naturally, they are hopping for Oktoberfest all month, so it's a bit harder to book the entire place during peak hours that month. Look forward to checking out their Oktoberfest in the future!
They will let you book a section of the open concept space or rent the entire space for a fixed minimum food/beverage fee that is pretty reasonable.
DESSERT
Though they don't really offer much in the way of desserts, they had plans to start working w/ a neighbour bakery to expand offerings for the regular menu & for events.
FOOD
Their menu is pretty much traditional all the way to exotic sausages on buns or as curry wvrst -- sliced without a bun w/ a curry ketchup like is super popular in Germany.
DRINK
They have a wide range of not-your-average-joe domestic and import beers and YES really good wine options, too. Bartenders seem to know their stuff and are enthusiastic and can accurately describe various beverages (very pleasant surprise these days for fairly casual fare).
SERVICE
We looked at their deli case to select sausages and purchase them at the counter. Then, food was brought to our table. We bellied up to the bar to buy our drinks separately then carried them back to our table, though, I think you can also buy it when you get your food.
PARKING
Sort of crowded street parking that I recall, so I recommend walking, biking, or street car.
PAYMENT
Where else can you buy a sausage and pay for it w/ credit card? Not likely when getting street meat from a stand.
