A Deutschtown German tavern with schnitzel, house sausages, and big steins. Kitschy, cozy, and a genuine North Side staple.
Order: Schnitzel, sausages & a stein

North Side · $$ · No. 143 of 157 overall
The city's oldest craft brewery, doing German food in Troy Hill's shadow. The lagers are the real accomplishment. Go when the biergarten is open.
Order: A pierogi plate and a lager

South Side · $$ · No. 153 of 157 overall
A Bavarian beer hall the size of an airplane hangar on the South Side Works. The food is fine-not-thrilling. You're here for the liter steins, the oompah band, and the communal-table chaos. Come with a group, leave loud.
Order: Liter of house lager with a giant soft pretzel
