After reading through some of the recent reviews, we were hesitant in coming here because of some of the service and food issues. Since there are no business owner responses, the problems could be persisting. However, we've enjoyed our time here in the past so we thought we'd try it again. We got here at 5 pm on a Thursday and the place was mostly empty. That usually translates into better service and likely a better prepared meal as well. Sure enough, this theory was correct. We had two craft beers on the table within three minutes followed by Ruben fritters five minutes after that. The menu here is pretty simple with the expected German twist to it. We just stuck to a salad and burger. The salad was fresh and good, but the burger was pretty average and you have to add your own mayo and mustard. Even by adding cheese and mushrooms it still fell within the three star range and the fries were just OK. The beers were correct to style, but the hoppier beers were slightly tame. It's pretty much three stars overall, but the service was great so 31/2*. I'd still come back and try something else off the menu before the weekend and before 6. read more

Brewery #374 Ordinarily I hate giving 1-star reviews because that means I had a bad experience. A month has passed since I visited, and I am now happy to write this review. We came in sometime between Thanksgiving and Christmas on a rainy night and were seated right away. After waiting like 10 mins the waiter came and took our drink order. The ladyfriend had a water and I got a flight of beer. He showed up 5 mins later with her water and took our food order. We order a pretzel as an appetizer, and each ordered a salad as an entree. Then queue the Jeopardy theme as we waited. 1st came out the salads after 15 mins or so. I asked about my beer and the waiter says, "yeah dude I asked the bartender and he said you'd get it before Christmas" and proceeds to laugh. I smile and let it go. So now I am watching the bartender and he's not busy. He actually took other people's order at the bar. Then comes the pretzel 10 mins later. The waiter says, "Can I get you anything else?" I say, "Yeah my beer. How am I supposed to eat this without anything to drink?' He says " woah dude don't kill the messenger". I then went full Karen and asked to speak to a manager who never came. Finally, after finishing the salad and a piece if the pretzel, the beer came. I got my order completely out of order. The pretzel was stale, and the cheese was cold. The salad was fine, and the beer was average. The service sucked and the bartender was an assclown. Tourist trap craphole and oh they didn't even have brewery stickers. read more

What do mean the jagerschitzel isn't served with spaetzle? Food was OK. Place kinda looks like a beer hall. Just wasn't overly impressed. Oh, it really is a brewery, and a transfer pump ran during the entirety of of meal. Did not like this either. Next time I'll head a little further east for a beer. read more

Ewww, what happened? Granted we haven't been here in 6-7 years but man! This food has gone down hill! The scotch egg was drowning in coleslaw and the sausage was so thin.

Pretty cool German themed brewery right on Main Street. We went for lunch as a large party and had a decent experience. Service and food was just okay. Beer was solid. I got the bratwurst sandwich with German potato salad. Brat to Swiss cheese to bread ratio was kinda off but it still tasted decent. read more

Food gets a "5". Pepper sausage was incredible as was the pretzel and bun that came with the sausage. Great mustard and cheese sauce for dipping as well. We sat at the bar and the bartender was an absolute miserable man trying to be a tough guy. It was two in the afternoon and we were on vacation just stopping for a beer and apps. This man wouldn't have a job if it weren't for people like us so maybe the entire business industry in town should think about that. Wouldn't return. read more

I have came here two separate times and I've had a great time each time. There's a lot of reviews about the waiters forgetting and such but each time I've came they have been so sweet and attentive. I got asked several times what else we needed and just regular check ups. They do have brewery stickers since I literally bought one. This place needs more love I swear! The food and drinks were delicious especially the salmon. The onion rings were done nicely as well. The overall place is clean and is very welcoming. read more

Jagerschnitzel???German Potato Salad???? My husband says no, it's overcooked pork with boxed or packet gravy. Very dry. Potato Salad was hot potatoes in vinegar. Ewwww. He lived in Germany for 6 years and NOTHING here tasted like more than b average and below average bar food. Go for the beer Hefeweizen was "not bad". Waitress was sweet, tea was weak. I don't recommend. read more

First time here and when we entered we were greeted and seated. We had not the best impression for first time dining because we were seated but no one came to take our drinks or food order. We waited for a while until a waitress came and then told us, " i don't know where your waitress is because she is no where to be found so i am going to step in to help. What drinks would you like?" We ordered for 2 waters and a honey cream ale. That waitress left and then a while later our waitress that we never met came with waters and put it on our table and told us one moment and walk away. We were baffled because there was like only 3 other tables (including us) that is seated. Our waitress didn't seem happy and then after a while later came back to take our order. We had ordered: 0/5 stars: the artichoke dip it was all cream and lacked salt and flavor. It just taste like cream of mushroom consistency and bland. It wasn't cheesy and just cream. The tortilla chips were not fresh and stale. 0/5: sausage sampler the grey sausage was uneatable. It was dry and just didn't taste good like it was bad. The pepperwurst texture was not bonded together and was way off. One of the sausage was ok but it wasn't anything special. Our order of sides were wrong. The side of sauerkraut was very salty and acidic. The red cabbage was super sweet. 0/5 JAGER SCHNITZEL the pork was dry and under seasoned. I felt ill after having a couple of bites of my meal and stopped. The German potato salad was bland and unappetizing. The potato tasted like it was from a can. Onion rings were drenched in oil and super greasy. Under seasoned as well. 0/5: peach cobbler: we were excited anout the peach cobbler since Fredericksburg was known for their peaches but we received raw pie dough that wasn't entirely cooked. It tasted like raw flour and the strangest thing is the vanilla ice cream doesn't taste like normal vanilla ice cream. It's not sweet and bland. I have no idea how that can be possible. 4/5: honey cream ale - this was the only item we enjoyed. Hint of honey and it was smooth. Do I recommend this place? Maybe just go for the beers. The service and food is not recommended unless you prefer bland food and a tummy ache. read more

Service is terrible. Hadn't been in a while, figured I'd give it another shot. Previous experiences, service also less than desirable. Gave it a fair shake and came to the same conclusion, the staffs lack of passion and engagement is going to ruin the legacy. Beer was cold and tasty. Food was fair. Over 1.5hr to get a second beer. Staff not engaged, on their phones. Appeared that off-shift team members were coming in and out of the restaurant, going to hostess station to use phone charger. All in all, very unprofessional. read more

The beer is really good, we got a flight of generous pours which allowed us to try all their beers. The pretzel was disappointing, just a generic Super Pretzel brand; I expected a homemade.... That was a previous review from 2023.... We have since returned. The sausage plate was really good, hubbys fave was the brat and mine the jalapeno sausage. We split the jagerschnnitzel which was really good. Entrees came with a roll that was two kinds of bread, light and dark, pretty good. Not the best restaurant but solid food and open later than most. read more

Service was very bad, if one person goes into the restaurant, the servers ignores the 1 customer and the server prefers a table with more than 1 customer, feels like servers don't care for the customer. It is sad that this is a tourist town and this restaurant treats customer this way. So sad, never again would go to this place or recommend anyone to visit it. read more

A stop in Fredericksburg usually means enjoying the shops, having some coffee with delicious German dessert, and enjoying some German food. So this is exactly the intent when going to Fredericksburg Brewery. Fredericksburg brewery brews its own craft beer, has a beergarten and also a bed-and-breakfast. For this visit, luckily, it wasn't very full. I ordered their Wurst Sandwich, which is a choice of sausage in a toasted hoagie with Swiss cheese and sauerkraut and a side. It was pretty good, and at $12, an ok price. The other person in my group ordered a club sandwich which came with a side of fries. The service was good but not extraordinary. The place has a very comfortable feel and they brew their own beer, so it certainly worth a visit. read more

The food variety it what brought us back...and the GD first encounter some new food...Service was a little lackluster, especially at the end...waiting 15 minutes just for the check to show up...never returned to see how the food was after being dropped off..The flight of beers are always a hit for the wife and I...started with the pretzel...alway a crowd favorite...Also rolled with a knackwurst with sauerkraut, bread and Mustard...alone the GD tried the kraust...not a huge fan...but with bread, wurst, kraut and a tad of mustard...she was a fan..and went in for seconds.. Wife and GD went with the Chicken Fried Steak...Huge portion...GD double Fries, wife Fries and Carrots...Carrots were a complete dud...hot held, so they were dry and had a skin and unevenly cooked thru out...Jagerschnitzel on my end was pretty good...great crust...gravy was good...GD agreed with both...another first for her...Potato salad was great...spicy green beans were just mush..flavor good...texture not there...still filled us up, but will be seeking out other venues in the future FB visits. read more

Food was great. Burger had really good flavor. Bet was delicious. Service was super slow today though and that's the main reason they are not get 5 stars. I would have drank probably 2 beers during lunch but never got the opportunity to order another one before we left. I've been here several times before when traveling to Fredericksburg and will be back next time as well. Atmosphere is VERY loud. read more

If you wanna have a great German experience, don't go to the Fredericksburg brewery. They weren't even playing German music. The beer tasted sour and nasty and it came in a plastic cup. They served all food in to go boxes when seating in n the benches. Schnitzel was mid at best. Pretzel wasn't bad though. read more

Came here with a friend on a random Sunday evening! We were one of 4 parties at this establishment to eat that night (biggest group there was 2-3 people), and feel like we got the better end of the deal for it! Service was still fairly slow, but the waitress was kind, but her leisurely attitude in checking on us kept me from drinking as many beers as I probably would have.. So maybe that's a good thing actually haha. But, I had 2 different brews - both were great - and shared the pretzel appetizer (fairly good), and ate the Schinken Schnitzel (or something like that). Food was decent, atmosphere was fun :) Overall: Not sure if I'd ever be jumping up and down to come back, but wouldnt be opposed to do so! ‍ read more

Fredericksburg Brewing is a great place to visit if you're looking for a German experience in Texas. We didn't get a chance to try the food but the dining hall part of the brewery was very busy when we visited so I'm sure that's a testimony to their food. The beer we tried was very great and there were plenty of places to sit in their bar portion of the establishment. There were also a couple of games to play while having a drink which is always fun. Giving the 4 stars cause there wasn't any music playing while we were there and I think that would have just amplified the experience and ambiance. read more

One of the busy places to grab a beverage and a small bite. It is the home of some very tasty craft beer - the red and the blonde were very good. Service was outstanding- and our small bite of choice was the pretzel. I was pleasantly surprised with the preparation- fresh and not overly bready. The dipping sauces were standard fare. I sat at the bar - nice spacing. The place was busy but still had a good vibe. It is on my list to hit at least once every time I am in town. read more

This place is a must try visiting Fredericksburg. Start with a pint of their great craft beer paired with the Scotch Egg. There are several German inspired selections personally the Bratzwurst plate offers a variety of flavors from sour, bitter, savory, and sweet. The coleslaw is amazing as well as all the mustard dips. read more

Had the schnitzel and Rueben sandwich. Both were good, but nothing exceptional. The sauerkraut was probably some of the best that I've ever had!!

I usually find restaurants are overrated on yelp, but this one is the opposite. Sure this is not a Michelin star restaurant but the food was not bad at all. We ordered the sausage sampler. Not only the different wurst are good, the fries and onion ring are fresh. The best part ia that you can sample different beers for $2 a small glass and you can build your own flight. What's not to love? Service was passable but definitely no issue whatsoever. read more

Their beer is great but the food and service is just okay. Ate there yesterday afternoon. Our waitress brought out the wrong food for my daughter. When my daughter told her that she ordered CFS and not CFC, she said, "she said chicken fried chicken". No, she did not. My daughter has never ordered CFC as CFS is her favorite food. It was ridiculous, no sorry or anything. We just had to sit there and we had to wait for the food to be remade. She almost acted like we were lying about what we ordered. Do not plan to go back to eat ever again. We have eaten there many times and have taken people with us but the food and service just isn't very good anymore and if I'm going to spend that much money on a meal, I would appreciate better customer service and better tasting food. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed the Reuben sandwich and German potato salad. My husband liked the Philly cheesesteak and fries. Our friend had the schnitzel. He said it was very good. Our waitress was amazing. She checked on us constantly. There was a huge party of 60 people, and she made sure that we got our order in before them. I gave it four stars because the of the price of our bottle of wine. The bottle cost $14 in the store and it cost $40 in the restaurant. read more

Maybe we hit this on an off day... Service was slow at best, and it wasn't busy at all. Food was just ok.... we shared the chicken fried sandwich. It was big enough for two of us and sides were plentiful. But the sandwich was just kind of bland. Beer was good but could have been a bit colder. We probably wouldn't stop here again. read more

Came in here on our last day in Fredrickburg... plenty of seating , plenty of beer and food options. We opted for the sausage sampler with a side of sour kraut and mashed potatees with brown gravy . Also with the blue cheese salad. The sausages were fantastic, the sour kraut was warm and delicious! And the gravy was outstanding! I had the Oktoberfest beer and it was the best Oktoberfest I've ever had... I will definitely be back whenever in town. read more

Stumbled in here for lunch in Fredericksburg. It's conveniently located on the corner on Main Street. It is a lot bigger than it looks from the outside. We were seated immediately in the dining room. There is also plenty of bar seating and more picnic style seating in the biergarten. We ordered a spread of appetizers - egg rolls, chicken wings spinach dip and a bowl of chili. Everything was tasty. The chili was a lil heavy on the meat for me, but was flavorful and the Cornbread it comes with was really good. Customer service was friendly and quicker than I would've expected for a Saturday afternoon. I would definitely return to indulge in entrees next time. read more

Food is 3.5 stars, service is 1.5 stars. We had to chase down Jovana to order and she had no follow up till bringing us the check. The Chicken Club was not made plain as we asked. Coke products served in can, no refills, at a brewey? Onion Rings too greasy should have been fried at higher temp. Sausage Sampler plenty for two or a good appitiser. Welcome host was extreamly friendly. Located downtown on south side of Main street. Street parking can be a bit tough when busy. Lots of air movement. Nice restrooms. Not Beer drinkers so no feedback on product. They need some simple drink food items on menu. They also need to tweek for great table service. I guess if you drink you will not notice. read more
