    Amazing authentic pretzels! Really fresh and tasty. I recently moved out of town and make sure this is always a stop when I'm in Pittsburgh

    Got a party tray today for a grad party. I ordered it over the phone a few days ago and it was…read moresitting there waiting for me as promised and in time! The young lady that helped me ... so nice! The store was clean and well stocked - Will def be back to this location.

    I just moved here to PA this week and once I secured a place to live I got excited to see a pretzel…read moreshop at the bottom of the hill from me! I finally had a chance to go in and the crew was in the process of cleaning up. I asked if they were closing and I received a curt reply from the young person of no. After looking for a moment I was asked if I knew what I wanted, I explained it was my first time trying the shop and I got an eye roll haha she proceeded to just stand there staring at me and I had to ask if she would suggest anything. I was told she could not. So I grabbed some Philly stuffed pretzels, a pretzel dog and a pretzel, I asked which mustard or any sauce I should try I was told I should know if I would like spicy or not, but there were so many other flavors. I just grabbed a honey mustard and a spicy. The Philly pretzels were old and hard to chew I could only eat one. The pretzel dog was soggy and wet on the bottom and hard on top. My regular pretzel was weird! I literally have nothing positive to say except it was nice and clean inside and I thought it looked super cute outside. I definitely wouldn't go back! What a terrible first experience in my new state.

    What a fun place! The large beer hall feels just like it came out of Germany. A light airy and…read morefully of energy space. Easy to read menu with many pictures. The wurst plate was the best sausage I have had in a while. A thick casing and flavorful meat. The potatoes were fluffy and the sauerkraut was pungent and delicious. You can get a spicy mettawurst - highly recommend! Salmon was cooked well and was a bit sweet with the sauce on top. The black forest torte was a large portion. Super good. Creamy and spongey cake. They will even pack it up and bring it out for you if you are too full!

    The ambiance of this place is great. I didn't know any of the songs they were singing or anything…read morebut the vibes bere pretty cool. The service wasn't bad either. She made sure my drink was always filled and out checked in on us alot. I realized I'm not a fan of German beer or food as a vegetarian. I had the super sampler. The pretzels are really good. The fried pickle spears are pretty good as well. Potato pancakes weren't bad but not my cup of tea. Couldn't tell you about the reuben balls but the people at the table said they weren't bad. Just weird. The steak spaetzilwas also a hit at the table. I tried a noodle which was like a dumpling and a mushroom. And again not my cup of tea but the table liked it. Lastly. The beer. People seem to love itbut as an ipa guy it was not for me. I had an original which was not too bad. Then the banana ish one which was not my thing. Either way the vibes made up for everything. It's not their fault it's not to my taste. Fun place just not my thing.
