A great spot hot or cold weather to enjoy an ice cold beer with friends and pets. It's a nice vibe. I ordered a half pint. The pint is huge! Maybe one day. They also serve bites. Order at the counter, grab a number for food. Drinks are poured on the spot when you order. read more

I stumbled on this when I was walking and hungry the other night in Hayes Valley. It's a great spot for German food and beer and outdoor picnicking. They close at 8pm sharp. I ordered at 7:49 and made it on time. We had the bratwurst plate and grilled cheese and corn. The corn was a standout favorite but it was elote Mexican street corn not German. So good!! Grilled cheese had sauerkraut. Savory and delicious. I wish there were heat lamps but it was so good. I'll just have to return with a jacket! read more

Biergarten - German Near Me - San Francisco, California

Oktoberfest vibes here at this German restaurant. Pretzels, Bier, communal picnic tables and the good old outdoors - just bring your friends and it has the makings for a casual, no fuss meet up. I love this part of town next to Patricia's Green. Its got a very good feel to it. Many great restaurants and a cluster of German places too: Biergarten, Hahdough, and Suppenkuche. If you are with a big, big group there is nothing I like more than to come to a place like this. Seating problems and ordering problems and all these problems that come along with big indecisive groups are avoided when coming to a place like this. And in the summer there is nothing nicer than being outdoors. German food is generally no fuss too. Have a currywurst along with your beer and give it a try. German sausage is generally much better quality than American mystery meat. read more

This place has it all, excellent beer, a great atmosphere, and simple yet great food. The guy working the front Dylan is very nice and relaxed. Great place to go with friends and family m. read more

You order from the counter, and beers are served right away. They will bring your food to your table :) there are outdoor seatings and "indoor" seatings (the tent) The pork belly sliders were okay, wish they have more seasoning or flavor to the pork. Currywurst was yummy, wish it comes with a little more fries tho. read more

Good vibes, GREAT food. Everything looks fresh, crunchy and tastes fantastic (especially garlic parm fries). It was a rare sunny day, but maybe keep some umbrellas on standby. I'd like to see more non-alcoholic options but those may not fit the rest of the options available. Overall, I'd enjoy coming back. Outside of my personal preferences, its a perfect spot to catch up and spend time being social or read a good book read more

Biergarten - Garlic parm fries - German Near Me - San Francisco, California

Biergarten is a truly atmospheric spot right in the heart of San Francisco. The place captures an authentic German vibe - communal tables, lively energy, and that unmistakable beer garden spirit. The food is delicious, perfectly paired with an excellent selection of German beers that are fresh, flavorful, and served the way they should be. It's the kind of place where you can relax, enjoy great company, and feel transported straight to Europe without leaving the city. If you're looking for a fun, authentic experience with great food and outstanding beer, Biergarten is a must-visit. read more

Nice spot outdoors to grab a few beers and bites - they have games available to play, but a lot of the pieces are missing. They open at 4PM but when we went they made us wait until 4:15PM to enter, which was a bit annoying. The food here is sub-par - I had the deviled eggs ($6) and the fries ($7). Came here in the winter but I'm sure it's much nicer and less freezing in the summer! read more

Very welcoming and Social ambiance. Good to connect with friends. Tried a couple of beers, bratwurst and curry wurst - all very good. The one call out is that both the wurst did not come with any bun (which is a first for me ) - but nonetheless they were quite good. read more

Came here for a friend's birthday and had a great time. They have long picnic tables that are perfect for large groups. They also have a decent selection of beer that isn't just German beer. The reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because I ordered the pork shoulder sandwich and was served this. I feel like a description is necessary if this is what is going to be served. read more

This little Biergarten in Hayes is behind a fenced area with lush green, inside you'll find a fun outdoor space to grab a solid pint and catch up with friends or colleagues- I noticed there were a lot of folks doing a work happy hour there. They actually have a large cupboard? cabinet? With some games and group activities which is really nice. I like how they have beers and lots of good shareable foods. It's a great spot for grabbing a drink/app before dinner too. The line was fairly long, but it's nice they serve drinks right up front to take to your seat. If it's busy, keep in mind, it took a second to get food. We got a pretzel with beer cheese, but the beer cheese isn't like an American bright yellow beer cheese. It's chunky and white, I still liked it with the pretzel with the mustard too. I got a Hefeweizen, yeasty wheat beer. It was light and sooo easy to drink. I have to come back when it's a hot SF day because an outdoor patio and cold beer sounds sooo good! read more

Great experience, I always have a wonderful time with their selections of beers as well as the food. Garlic fries and their currywurst is my go-to! read more

I stopped by here on a sunny Sunday afternoon and left happy that it did. I was greeted by their friendly staff that offered me to sample any of the beers/ciders. I decided on the fort point cider and a soft pretzel. I was happy with the pretzel and would recommend it to anyone. It was chewy, buttery and perfectly salted. It also came with a side of mustard and a seasoned Bavarian cheese spread. The cider was light and crisp and paired perfectly with the pretzel. Snagging a bench wasn't difficult and they had nice music playing in the background. I'll definitely be back! read more

very cute vibe! the whole area is an outdoor patio space with great music and service. the bananaweizen (banana radler) was my favorite. super unique flavor and amazing taste! highly recommend and will be back soon! read more

Simple beer garden and good place for a snack or a drink. They make the authentic Glühwein (mulled wine) that's just like Germany. Excellent! A lot of things were sold out but they had the paulaner Pilsner and pretzels. The pretzel came out lopsided but it was good and that's a sign that it was hand made. Give this place a try and just go to hang out everything is outdoors. read more

Out and about with the most handsome date and we hear reggae. Surprise surprise, it's a live DJ at Biergarten! This oasis not only helped ease the tension of a date, but the nostalgia from the 90's throw backs kept us in a good mood as we got to know each other. I love red ales so the Westfalia was definitely the ticket. Super smooth and dry making this pick an easy drink. All in all, I love this place and will be back again. I mean why not it's in my neighborhood. read more

I've walked by Biergarten dozens of times and finally came to check it out while celebrating a friend's birthday pre-game. Located in Hayes Valley, Biergarten features an expansive outdoor patio offering German inspired food and beer. Aesthetically and atmospherically, it's actually a really lovely spot for a warm day. I can't comment on too much, as I only stayed for about an hour and only had a beer, but during that one hour, every experience was positive. There's a window where you can line up to order your beer and I opted for the seasonal Oktoberfest. It was well balanced, not too malty nor too hoppy and I did enjoy sipping on it. There was a live DJ which added to the ambiance as well. For just a casual, chill hangout, the vibes were on point. Since it's an outdoor space, it's also dog friendly so we were able to bring our pup wut hus, who had a great time just hanging out with the group. There was also a water bowl available at the entrance so our pup didn't go thirsty either. read more

Came here a handful of times for company gatherings. It's a great location and vibe. Staff has always been nothing but friendly and the service is pretty quick. Food is delicious and shareable, definitely a go to place after work or to meet friends. read more

Came here for a happy hour and it was cool to have so much outdoor space! It was incredibly cold though and windy, so it wasn't the most comfortable experience. There were a few heat lamps that kept us warm though. Good: - I was a huge fan of the pretzel dumplings - super tasty, maybe a little salty, but it was a super unique dish - 5/5 - The mushroom sliders were tasty as well but not my fave - 3/5 Bad: - Too cold outside! And the food took a bit to come out Overall this place was a nice place for a happy hour. read more

Most of the time, the weather in San Francisco plays nice and it's pleasant to be outside. For some reason, Biergarten feels like it's in a slight wind tunnel so there's always a cold breeze coming through. I appreciate the opportunity to be out in the sun though as it pairs perfectly with a beer! They have a large area set up with many bench style tables and seats. The offer a variety of German beers that are all good, but they are pricey! They also offer some food items like pretzels and sausages. I've come here a few times and have always felt like its a pleasant environment to spend time and hang out in. read more

This place is a real find, we were there on a sunny warm day and this was the perfect spot. They have an extensive selection of German beers on tap, get the large size. Both the vegan and regular brats are good and come on a bun with kraut and mustard unless you ask for something different. There are lots of tables and friendly people. The only complaint is it's necessary to go through the line again to get more beer. read more

This place is perfect for casual drinks, especially with a large group. We showed up as a party of 9 on a Sunday afternoon and were able to immediately grab a picnic table on Biergarten's patio. Their entire seating setup is outdoors (so your visit will largely depend on the weather) but it was ideal for us, with its laid back, dog-friendly vibe. We ordered at the window with a few friendly staff members. The drinks are given to you right away, along with a number to take back to your table, so that they know where to bring out the food. I'm not a big beer drinker but luckily they had a few wines, so I got the Zweigelt (red wine) - very good! I also ordered a Pretzel with Obatzda (a creamy mix of Bavarian cheeses). The Pretzels here are fantastic and I highly recommend adding the Obatzda - such a great combo! My friends all enjoyed their massive beers, as well as the Bratwurst, Currywurst, Potato Salad, and Deviled Eggs. Would absolutely return! read more

Came by a few times with work mates for team building and after work happy hours. I enjoyed the beers, pretzels and the bratwurst. Service was fast, friendly and ambiance is nice when the weather is good as it's outside. Can't speak about the prices as someone else picked up the tab on those occasions. I will update if I come with friends in the future. read more

Great hidden spot in Hayes Valley to grab a big glass of beer on a nice SF day. Definitely a go to spot as it gets warmer Food & Drink 4/5: Hefeweizen 4.5/5: Solid beer made better by the great atmosphere and chill vibe of the outdoor space Bratwurst 3.5/5: Good bratwurst with even better sauerkraut on the side. They serve it without a bun which could be off putting to some but was a good portion. The only thing was that it was a bit pricey and not sure it is of optimal value. Ambiance 4/5: Simple picnic like tables are lined all around the outdoor areas with the entire setup being outdoors. Very dependent on having good weather but really enjoyed the space. They have seating that can accommodate big groups. read more

I tried to invite a large group of friends to this spot for drinks on a Friday night. We arrived at 8:20 PM, but unfortunately, we were turned away, even though the place is advertised as open until 9 PM. I can understand if the kitchen closes at 8, but it was surprising that they wouldn't even serve drinks--especially when they're promoting Oktoberfest! If they stop serving at 8, why not simply state that the closing time is 8 instead of 9? It's a bit misleading, and I would appreciate clarification on this. I'd love to be corrected if they actually close at 8, but I assume they don't. Lesson learned: get there early! read more

Dieser Biergarten ist nicht so gut und das Essen war schlecht. Die Brezel war nicht lecker und die Wurst schmeckte komisch. Die Mitarbeiter waren auch unhöflich. Das Einzige, was mir an diesem Ort gefällt, ist die Atmosphäre des Biergartens. Ich werde nicht wiederkommen, was schade ist, da ich Deutsche bin. read more

I'll start with the negatives first because that's what's important. The servers at this otherwise wonderful place are bitter and resentful. Their way of service has always been less hospitable than any other business in the Hayes Valley area. I understand that this is a German Biergarten which gives them the right to behave like Germans but even Berliners are not as rude and apathetic as the servers here. Bro-y and competitive, it's no wonder no women servers work here. I'm a regular here but to share a specific experience, I'd speak of a recent one where I sat there sipping my beer with a friend while there was a birthday party crew of about 20 people having a nice time. At one point, they wanted to do a toast but the music was too loud. So one of them turned it down for a minute so the birthday person could do a brief speech. Might have been 20 seconds since and one of the servers came over and yelled at him for touch the volume. I get it, he may have crossed a limit by doing it himself but the way the server treated him and the entire crew was shameful and cruel. There have been other times when they've treated their customers terribly but this one really threw me off. That said, they serve amazing fresh beer and their burger and bratwursts are to die for. The ambiance is that of a biergarten. Lots of Hayes Valley sun. Their clientele are beer lovers who are friendly and chill. I've had countless conversations here with folks sharing our table. Overall a great vibe if you don't annoy a member of their staff. read more

Biergarten has such a fun, casual atmosphere for afternoon drinks. Their German inspired menu, as well as their beers are not the best I've ever had, but definitely a solid option. The outdoor space is incredibly charming, with little twinkle lights and a large space filled with picnic tables. Keep in mind, the entire area is outdoor so you have to make sure you go when the weather is nice. It's the perfect place to gather with big groups of friends, or even host a small event. Last time I was there, my friends and I planned a board game night, where we all brought our own games and were able to play for hours. Great casual time for after work drinks in Hayes! read more

Biergarten - Bratwurst - German Near Me - San Francisco, California

This spot can be fun if you're looking for an outdoor beer garden that can accommodate large groups and is dog friendly. But other than the lively atmosphere, my friends and I (a group of 7) unanimously agreed that Biergarten is way too overpriced and overrated for mediocre beer and food. For instance, if you ordered a pretzel and then want to add some cheese dip to pair with it, be prepared to pay an extra $7 for a tiny 1oz paper souffle container of Obatzda (Bavarian cheese)! The beer selection is just okay because there aren't that many options available. With all the other beer gardens and breweries in the city, I don't see a reason to come back to Biergarten. read more
