Hofbrauhaus Chicago

Superb environment and super attentive service. The food was fresh and enchanting. Will clearly recommend this place to others. Convenient prices and big meals. Great work.

The entertainment hands down is 5 stars! The German band and costumes are awesome. Great entertainment and environment with lots of seating. But I would give the food 3 stars, this is why I have given an overall 4 star review. I had the jaeger schnitzel and my mom had the wiener schnitzel. Both are pounced breaded pieces of pork cutlet. The jaeger schnitzel has a mushroom sauce which I thought gave it more flavor. It was served with what tasted like dried up Mac and Cheese. The wiener schnitzel was plain and served with mustard potato salad. The portions are huge but a little pricy in my opinion. The soda tasted fresh and the potato pancakes were on point. I will be back for dessert and the entertainment but not again for a meal.

It was fine. The potato pancakes were really good. The restaurant was somewhat busy. Service was slow. My friend liked her chicken. Eating outside was nice. There is ground level parking. I just don t love German food I guess.

Great meal and atmosphere. Jess M was our server. She was professional, polite and super knowledgeable about the menu. She did an A++ job. Between myself and two friends we got a meat and cheese sampler, then salads. Mine was a cucumber salad and the bowl was loaded to the top. I got two pork chops in beer gravy with vegetables and a dumpling. The pork chops and sauce were delicious. My first time eating a dumpling so I have no previous reference but it was a good filler for potatoes or bread. The veggies were salt and peppered which is all they needed. On top of their in house beer which I had the seasonal Oktoberfest this is an awesome place I would recommend to anyone who hasn't gone before to make it worth your trip. My friends and I went on a Monday afternoon so it was slow. There are large community tables and a huge serving room so almost any size party can go

There used to be live entertainment on Saturdays before Covid....now its piped in music. Seating is limited per Covid rules, which is comforting. Service was a bit slow even for the reduced capacity. BEER is always excellent.

As always it's great in here. Good atmosphere and the food is amazing. The beer is delicious and everything about it reminds me of Munich. 10/10 would keep coming

Very fun place! I really like the environment here. Beer is good and service is friendly and attentive. We also had a large pretzel which was delicious. Only thing is I wish this place was a bit quieter.

My people! At least my DNA test says so. Great food and atmosphere.

Our waiter Jon (Batman) was very patient with us. We had quite a big group and often asked him for things but he never once rolled his eyes or got annoyed with us. Great conversations with him. He gave his input on some of the food and offered suggestions (which for us, was the best) some of the food wasn't what we expected but overall we were full and almost tipping over rolling out. Even the busboy was joking with us. Some of the food were hard to pass; potato pancakes, calamari, dry rub wings, fresh pretzels, spatzel, german potatoes, fries, steak (delicious), mahi mahi (delicious), and apple strudel w/ice cream. The schnitzel was ok; the pork was better, the chicken had a sour taste to it. We weren't a fan of the Bavarian potato salad. The sauerkraut balls and cheese curds weren't our fave. The loaded bier fries was ok because, of course, the avocado cream was a hit.
