Hofbräuhaus Chicago

Great time.. Really good food.

If you are nearby you should eat here.

Get there early, we waited 40 minutes

Food was definitely different but good. Service was horrible and our waitress was rude. I like millions of other people attempted to pay with my credit card and was told they only take cash. This is posted no where. Was told that I could walk to the bar area to get cash. Thank God I actually had enough cash in me to pay for my meal because I typically never carry cash. I’m only giving it 3 stars for food, atmosphere and entertainment...also in a great location.

Always a Great experience! A doze of positivity is guaranteed. There is always live music, funny songs, Best Beer ???? and happy people ???? When you order a shot it gets served on the traditional wooden shot paddle, but now when you take your shot, that paddle serves a new purpose. You can bend over and get an old-fashioned spanking, and it is not a light tap ???? their german sausages are delicious and full of flavor. So overall, even if you are not up to party, this location will make you feel great ????

Great fun! We were running late for our reservation but got right in and ordered beers and pretzel for appetizer. You don't even notice the wait because of the awesome house band. Our server Chris, was very informative and attentive.

Good if you're looking to host a big group, like communal seating & want live music. Not so much if you're not into crowds and want a quiet, cozy spot to eat and have conversation. Extroverts' dream, not so much for introverts... however, if you like German food and great beer, ask for a 2 top in the back and it's much more manageable especially with kids. It's a great family place but might be sensory overload for small children/babies
