Hofbrauhaus Berchtesgaden GmbH — Restaurant in Berchtesgaden

We visited in early August 2023.

The brauhaus has an open courtyard with spit roast meats, and a basic, clean restaurant inside. It’s all well worn wood floors, tables, chairs and beams with some stained glass windows. It’s a very old building, it’s dark and has some beautiful old features and pictures on the wall. There are plenty tables.

We arrived too soon for the evening meal service, so we just enjoyed a beer while we waited. We had the jubilee beer, it was amazing, so tasty that we ordered another too enjoy with our meal. We had the wurst with sauerkraut and the ox and dumpling, both were very good.

They do offer a menu in English which they will offer you if they realise you speak English, however you can just ask for it, but we have enough german to use the regular menu.

A pleasant atmosphere, great beer and...

Obviously this isn't like the Munich Hofbrauhaus, but it has it's own history and pros/cons. The excellent beer of course is the same & it is far less touristy. Musicians were good but just an accordion & guitar - no 3-4 piece brass umpa band. There were no Bavarian shoe-slap dancers this time. Disappointing? A bit, but the overall experience was great. On the negative side is the Friday special at 15 euros, which overnight went to 19.80 euros. 15 was a good deal - 19.80 too high for what you get when advertised as a 'special'. I had 5 schweinhaxes at various restaurants on our trip & this was the smallest & worst. The pretzel wasn't much of a side dish & wasn't good. The best we had was a schweinhaxe at 12.80 eu elsewhere, so add a mass beer & you are at a couple euros more, but for a great schweinhaxe with a good salad & good side dishes. My advise is to eat somewhere else & go to the Hofbrau for the beer, fun, and music. If they lower price back to 15 then go for it - that would be a true 'special' - but know what you're getting, a smallish pork hoc & no real...
