Pros-It's a German Christmas Market in Alabama! So it's filled with German food, Entertainers, items for sale, Decorations, Rides like a Ferris wheel, Carousel, Swings, Small train for the kiddies, 2 Horse drawn carriages . Wow!! Who Knew!! And it's Free to Enter!!
Cons: Can get overwhelming with people fast. I suggest going during the week and When it first opens. I suggest going when it starts in November instead of close to Christmas on a Sat. The parking is a mess . We were so lucky to get a space right across from the entrance. Not going to lie they need more Restrooms!! I suggest going to the left side . The one by the skate park is only 1 stall. Ridiculous! Rides were packed!
Middle - It's expensive not going to lie We went through probably 400-500 bucks easy on food and the carriage ride for 3 people. We waited like a hr to ride it. The ride is short (about a block) 8-10 min per load of people. You do the math when you are in line. Better yet look at the line before you buy the tickets. Those behind me were in for a 2 hr wait no joke!! They are in need of more tables to sit!!! They have private areas that cost like 50 bucks (heated) Are you serious?!!
Unfortunately it is Dog friendly. I didnot like this because 1. Some people like me are scared of big dogs 2. Dogs have been known to snap (imagine the noise and stress with so many people)
Make no mistake We will be back but they need to tweak it for it to be better for sure. Not enough restrooms or seating . Improving this it would get a 5. I still loved it!! It was an experience I have always wanted . A Christmas market and German food yes!!! read more
