Hofbrauhaus

First time and for sure not the last one. Staff was very lovely. Food delicious. We order the feast platter. It says for 2-3 people but we were 5 and we almost couldn't finish it. So much food! There was live music and that made the whole experience more delightful. Very recommended. Also, a good place to celebrate birthdays and other sort of big gatherings.

If you’re looking for traditional German food and beer, this is the perfect place to come! We dined on a Friday evening and were able to enjoy live music while enjoying our beer and extremely flavorsome food! Great that they offer a free 300ml beer if you have tickets for the theatre later that night too. Will be returning again!

We came here on Friday night, and the place was buzzing with people and the live band! We ordered the Lemon Schnitzel - freshly crumbed matters marinated and freshly crumbed chicken breast, chips, slaw, Bavarian mayo. It was out of this world!!! The best in the city. Great selection of Bavarian beer. Make sure you book a table, as it gets packed very quickly. Super friendly service, and quick.

Love this German restaurant in Melbourne's Chinatown area. Friendly service with an authentic local tavern feel (well without the cigarette smoke!). Menu is varied and the serves are super generous. The fried mushroom starter is absolutely amazing! Def recommend this. For mains my mate had the chicken schnitzel with mushroom sauce. It was huge!!! Come hungy, don't eat lunch! This is a marathon meal :) The chicken was tender, only thing I would consider is more sauce please!! I opted for the sausages. OMG so good. Perfectly whipped mashed potato's as well as tangy sauerkraut. Really enjoyed this meal. Well worth the trip to town for such a great experience. Highly recommended.

Now the original flavours of a small state of Bavaria in Germany is hard to find anywhere else in Australia. But friends, @hofbrauhaus_melbourne is where you are guaranteed to find the authentic flavours, vibe, people, charm, decor, drinks and everything of Bavaria in this quaint little tavern style restaurant in an alley in Chinatown, Melbourne, Australia. We had a gala feast at this fantastic German restaurant, with all the traditional Bavarian and German cuisine. Weiner schnitzel, served with cranberry sauce, freshly crumbed veal, potato salad and slaw, so crispy, perfectly tender from inside and with that cranberry sauce, it tasted even more yum. Biergarten Fisch, served with bretzel crusted cod with creamed Bavarian cabbage and fennel, buttered potatoes, lemon cream, such a divine main course, loved the bed of creamy veggies the code was served on more, has a very satisfying and mouth-melting flavour to it, highly recommend! Biergarten Ente, served with pan roasted duck breast, duck leg croquette, fondant potato, roast beetroot and sour cherry sauce. The combination of all the flavours were so sensational in this dish, I felt very festive the moment I took a bite of this dish. The duck breast was very juicy and was cooked to perfection, the croquette of duck leg was the show stopper of this elegant and beautiful main dish. Definitely a must try. We had a flatbread topped with bacon, cheese, rocket and onion with their creamy onion and leek soup of the day. This was a perfect winter gastronomic combo, so heart warming the soup was and the flatbread was absolutely delicious. Must try. And of course, the bretzels were perfect like always. We also had a cocktail called Angela Merkel, which was very refreshing in taste, I would strongly recommend this, even though the German lagers are hard to resist here. The prices are impossibly very reasonable and standard considering the generous portion size of their mains. The service is incredibly awesome, led by a team of friendly, cheerful and helpful team of staff. So guys why not checkout this lovely tavern @hofbrauhaus_melbourne this weekend with your friends/family.

What a fun place. We arrived to hear the band banging out some tunes which was fun. Hofbrauhaus has some great beers, no surprises there I hear you say lol. My Maisel's Weissbeir was fantastic and you've gotta love a stein hahaha. The Rothaus Pilsner was crisp, light and tasty. They also have a new range of vegetarian options which my partner enjoyed such as the cabbage rolls and the potato salad. We didn't try the new vegetarian gnocci this time but we are definitely going back. The pretzels are imported from Germany and they hit the table piping hot! OMGosh they are amaaazing. I could have eaten these all night haha. My pork knuckle was fantastic. Cripsy on the outside, with soft juicy meat that literally fell of the bone. This was perfect. The meat was a little salty, and so moorish. Thanks for the collab.
