| - I did not enjoy this place, it's pretty much a giant gimmick. On the plus side, the spaetzels were pretty good, and the beers are priced well for their size. However, the rest of the evening was a flop. I was there with a fairly large party that spanned 2 tables, we had one server, which seemed standard. The server will take your name with your order, but I'm not sure it really helped. She was constantly coming up to the table with food and drinks we didn't order and when everyone's food did come out it was hard to hear what it was and they didn't use the names. The food was cold. My fiance's pretzel was stale (another person ordered the pretzel and it was soft, so I know they weren't supposed to be hard as rocks). He also never got the pierogies he ordered. My chicken breast was dry and slightly burnt. After receiving food the server never came back to check on us, so we couldn't tell her we didn't get the pierogies and couldn't order more drinks. We had to ask for the check about an hour later after grabbing her as she walked by.
I could sort of see why someone would like the atmosphere as it is conductive to drinking, standing on benches, and "dancing." But as someone below pointed out, it's a bunch of older people trying desperately hard to relive their college days. People stand on the benches and you're basically watching their butts sway back and forth. It is very loud so don't expect conversation. I would consider going back if I were looking for this type of experience and the service was good, but given the fact that the service is terrible I probably won't return, there are a million other places to get beer in Cleveland that don't feel like Disney World.
Oh and the 5k/10k they host every year stinks too.
