Is this place still open? We think it might have closed, because its website stopped responding (checked 16 Aug 2026) and there have been no Untappd check-ins for over 5 years. Neither is proof, so the entry is still here.

Something else is wrong

A lively place with a handful of its beers on tap (brewed on site). Bavarian nonsense on stage with a band playing a lot of Neil Diamond and blowing their Alphorn for cheers.

Beers were focused on Hofbraus well known brews: original, dunkel, and the Hefeweizen plus one rotating “seasonal” beer— one for each month. Lots of Bavarian snacks and sausages but if you look to the back of the menu, you’ll find some burgers and sandwiches as well. Lots of merch. Several large tables and a big bar alongside many 2 and 4 top tables.

I saw multiple guys get their asses paddled; can’t say what that was about. There are a couple of televisions on the walls for catching the game but certainly not the focus of this place.
