CitySearch Tips

What to Drink

Half-liter mugs of German imported beers are available with selections like Stiegl, Spaten and Erdinger Weiss.

When to Go

With live music nightly and no cover charge, evenings are the best times to take in the traditional brauhaus ambience.

FourSquare Tips

  • Taylor L.
    Go to Chicago Brauhaus and get yourself a pretzel with some spicy mustard and a "boot" of the house hefeweisen.
  • The Feast
    Something comforting to look forward to in the colder months and the ultimate the recipe for comradery: giant beers, brats, and live polka music flooding the dance floor.
  • venessa t.
    I don't care much for the food, but I haven't sampled much of it so take that with a grain of salt. I come for the beer, the music, and the atmosphere.
  • Jay G.
    This place is unbelievable. Nothing like it.
  • Jace M.
    Try the German Pretzel and a liter of Stiegl beer. Top if off by dancing to the Polka Band.
  • Adam r.
    1 liter boots of beer. DO IT!
  • Trim K.
    Jokes about German sausages are the wurst!
  • Mike P.
    Order their massive boot of beer and pass it around the table. Whoever kills it buys the next one.
  • Rick S.
    Get the boot of beer and a pretzel to start. The schwein schnitzel is good. If the have the smoked pork and bacon sausage special, definitely go for it.
  • Joshua M.
    Place kinda sucks.
