Excellent all around. Party of six were seated immediately and then we were accommodated when we asked for a larger table. Apps included fried Brie, slab bacon and potato pancakes. My sauerbraten was as tender as butter. Chicken snitzel, wurtz sampler, fish etc rounded out the entreat. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meal very much. Service was excellent from answering our many questions to quick, efficient service to our table was appreciated. A great night! read more

Mother's Day in the Beer Hall- We were seated at a long and narrow table (not the ones that are usually in the beer hall) next to the service door. We were shoulder to shoulder to each other. I had to straddle a table leg because of the way the table was set up. I could not get my chair under the table. There was barely any room for our plates and glasses. Even though it was a Mother's Day event, there was not a kids' menu- which makes no sense bc you know kids will be at this event! Two of our dishes had to be sent back because they were cold. It's nice that they hire the local kids and the service was good. Overall, just a bad experience. I do not think we will come back for a special holiday again. read more

Fun beer garden with lively music and German classic food. Ample selection of beers and alternative beverages. I enjoyed their spatzel. Family friendly. Ample parking. But be aware of the per head cost for the entertainment. read more

5/3/26. Attended a political function in the Beer Garden area. This area was absolutely freezing. The buffet consisted of penne, lasagna, meatballs, chicken parm, chicken franchise, sausage and peppers, sweet/sour chicken, and salad. Food was catering hall average. However, it was nice to see local kids working there, and the service provided was very cordial. read more

What an incredible, large space! So large. I came here for the first time today for their Christkindlmarkt, Saturday, 11/29/25. I am accustomed to New York City high prices living in the city and living here my entire life. Oh boy were the prices for everything astronomical. We ordered two small soups each $12 each outside. The hot chocolate bar was cute but for $5 per cup, to have something that tasted like a watered down Swiss miss was not fair. I find that the Bryant Park holiday shops are more affordable than what was being offered here today. I don't mind spending the money but it felt greedy. I likely would have purchased more if the cost was slightly lower. Thin white pretzels (advertised as a large pretzel) was $12-$13. I would like to say that we did not dine in the sit down restaurant and I would like to return when they do not have an event happening and I would of course update my review to reflect a dining in experience outside of a German Christmas market event. The cost for one raffle was $5 and for three for the tricky tray was $10. When I asked how it worked, the person could not explain to me the rules at all or how it was happening and the two other women just looked at me. No smiles. It was really depressing and off putting. I had even asked if they were doing a cash giveaway raffle and I was told no. After speaking to someone that didn't work there, she had said yes. I'm the type of person that would have likely bought $20 in raffles. Just couldn't help but feel from the people at the table that it was not going to be an honest draw (I said it!) The live music was a nice touch and we didn't come across a staff member while we were here that said hello or a thank you. It was nice to see families out and about purchasing from small businesses. A woman was selling a hat that I saw from a discount store that normally would cost 4.99 for $25. Just to give an idea. Transactions seemed to all be cash only. Just wanted to put that out there just in case anyone plans to go on the second day of this event on Sunday, 11/30/25. I think it's wonderful they hosted this event. I would like to leave my honest feedback for visitors. read more

This is a very cool place to hold an event. Other than the main hall, there are many other spaces to rent for special occasions. Yesterday, our friend had his surprise birthday party here and we got to enjoy what this place had to offer. The good was average, but the drinks and service were great. Beer hall part of the property we were in also looked amazing, If I ever need an event hall for a large gathering, I will certainly keep this place in mind. read more

I visited the newly renovated restaurant part-- the Hive. We walked in without a reservation and waited at the bar with some beer before being moved to a table. The restaurant part was not quite as big as I thought it would be, though it certainly beat freezing my butt off in the cold. We started with the brats sampler while we perused the menu. It was cut up for sharing, though the pieces didn't match the number of people at the table. The starter bread was hard as a rock. However, the brats were really tasty. We then ordered the mussels which were so buttery and herby with a bit of bitter hop flavor. The giant pretzel was nice with the beer cheese dip and the mustard. I liked that both sweet and spicy mustard came with it! The schnitzel was really good as well, but we were very full. The decor and ambiance was great and the server did a great job explaining each dish and making suggestions for us. read more

Saturday night Memorial Day weekend, they had plenty of servers on staff. We never needed to wait at the bar. We tried to enter from the back lot but there was an unexpected cash only $8 cover for a band there that night. So we had to walk to the front and trade an ID to go use the cash machine. I digress. We decided to sit down and eat to get a glimpse of the full menu and it did not disappoint. Lots of options with some basics like chicken fingers and fries for the little ones. The restaurant is really like an extravagant old world bar. Lots of TV's around the bar to catch whatever game you want. Weird they didn't have drink menus available in hand, the bar tender said they are usually on one or two TVs. Peculiar. That night all the TVs were on the Yankee game. The lightning and wood work are also worth a mention. Even they outdoor seating is partially covered so even if it sprinkles you can still enjoy the band outside. And there was an abundance of picnic tables. This place is definitely a unique experience, make sure you walk around and take in all it has to offer before you decide where you are going to settle in. **they also had potato soup that was fab! Amongst the other appetizers pictured. read more

I had my baby shower here and we had a great time. We had a brunch for ladies in the blue room and the men went to the newly renovated Hive restaurant. The blue room was perfect for baby boy baby shower. They have the doors in the back of the venue that led to the parking lot which made set up and break down so much easier. They charged me $51 per person for the brunch and $30 per bottle for the champagne. Please be aware they charge 25% service fee for the catering parties and all transactions. They also charge a 3.5% fee for using credit cards. I charged the champagne on a different tab and I was disappointed they charge me 25% service charge just for my champagne tab. However, the Platt is affordable for a major catering hall in nassau county area and beautiful inside. The men at the baby shower loved the Hive and they said the service was great. I think they even had more fun than the ladies lol. My maitree D Gabby was great and ran the party smoothly. Also, Donovan was great in assisting all of my questions and concerns for my event. Christian and Debbie were also very helpful when it came to booking and planning the event which made the party process smooth. The blue room is perfect for baby showers and it was spacious enough for all the decor including a bouncy house! read more

Great food and beer. The food was served hot and the beer was cold. Great place to bring family and friends. The service was great and fast. Definitely a place to visit and make it your favorite place for a meal with a cold beer. read more

A massive area! Areas for everyone - groups, families, couples looking to chill at the bar. When we came on a Friday, there was a cover & a band. We came for a quick bite but easily could have stayed for awhile by the fires outside and relaxed. read more

It's unfortunate what has become of the food here. I have been coming to this restaurant for a very long time, and although it's been a while since my last visit, I expect the food to be good as it was the last time I visited. Alas, it was not to be. The Jaeger snitzel was tasteless, smothered in a mushroom sauce made of canned mushrooms and lacking all flavor. The beef roulade was no better than boiled beef devoid of any seasoning. The red cabbage was overcooked with no flavor other than vinegar. This place used to be the place for a great German meal, but it is no longer. Maybe it's still good as a Biergarten with live bands, but even the beer selection is limited, so I'm not too sure if one can say it's a great Biergarten. The food and the service of the past is no longer what is here. read more

A lot going on here. There's a beer garden out back and inside a sweet 16 was happening next to the Hive Restaurant which is where we were. Bread they bring for the table was great as was the potato pancake and pretzel. Will come back and try the beer garden with love entertainment. read more

Plattduetsche Park - Sauerbraten with spaetzle and red cabbage. Gravy was flavorful but the meat dry. - German Near Me - Franklin Square, New York

What a great spot - big so plenty of space when it's crowded - ate upstairs - delicious, huge portions, service was good! Casual and fun vibe. Cover band was fun! Would love to go back when we are in that area again! read more

Food is traditional German food. Hugh servings. Bartender very personable. Service at bar awesome.

I'm so sorry ! Really couldn't wait to enjoy this restaurant after the renovation ! The jaegerschnitzle had no flavor at all, it was as if they put a jar of brown gravy mixed in some canned mushrooms and poured it over a veal cutlet - pretty sad ! The spatzle was good though Probably won't be back in the restaurant again, just Biergarten read more

Adriana was kind and attentive. Thank you for a great experience! We look forward to visiting the Biergarten.

Huge spot! We came here with the kiddos around 3pm and it was definitely the sweet spot to not encroach on the younger crowd! The beer was good and so was the food (pretzels and chicken fingers with fries). Loved the big space and hanging. Will def be back in the future!! read more

This spot was a real surprise to me. When I first found it, I just looked at the food images. It's a really nice spacious authentic Biergarten! The food and beer were great. Everyone was really nice. This is a chill spot where families come to spend time and watch sports. There was a great band playing 90s music. When you enter there is a cover charge but it's definitely worth it! read more

Door bier and service were great! Newly renovated beehive bar was nice. Authentic food as well!

We live an hour away. But made the trip and was worth it. The sauerbraten was delicious as was the red cabbage and potato dumplings. The black first cake was so fresh. The service was very attentive. And the atmosphere was very nice. Only negative is the hive resturant is on the small side so without a reservation you might be out of luck. read more

Came here with a party of 22 people in Thanksgiving as it was the only place to be able to accommodate a group this large. Everyone had such a positive experience. We had our own private room with a handful of staff members to cater to us. The food was delicious and authentic. I have spent a lot of time in Germany and have found this food to ve pretty close to authentic. The portion sizes are massive and everything is cooked so perfectly. If you're a beer fan, they have a huge selection to choose from. This was definitely a great place to visit. read more

Overall everything was very good, we love the new Hive, and service was excellent, made us feel like regulars on our first visit. Only "complaint" was the hunters sauce on the Jaeger schnitzel was bland and doesn't come close to the same at Zum Stammtisch, which to most is the gold standard of German food in NY. Otherwise I am looking forward to coming back and trying other items on the menu. One other thing I mentioned is your online reservation system allows reservations for the Hive on Wed-Fri only, Saturday and Sunday says Main Dining Room. read more

Dined with a party of eight and all were extremely satisfied and impressed with the wonderful service. The food was delightful from start to finish. Couldn't speak highly enough of the staff and the overall dining experience. The #1 german restaurant on the east coast hands down. Keep up the great work. Prost Prost. read more

Went to the renovated Hive. They did a nice job in the renovation. Went only for drinks and apps so can't comment on food since we only had the pretzel to knosh on. My low rating is based solely on the service from the bartender. She was not friendly and had an attitude. I'm not a demanding customer and understand the industry. It had a normal local crowd of regulars and wasn't packed to give any worker stress from a crowded place to keep up. I will go back to try the food and hope the bartender had a bad night. read more

Nice venue for big parties. Went here for my child's 6th grade class dance and it was so beautiful inside. Each ballroom has a unique touch to it. The food was really good too. If you're thinking about a great venue for your wedding reception, big party, or even little party; Plattduetsche Park is the venue space :D Thank You!! read more

"Absolutely stellar! The traditional Biergarten atmosphere transported us straight to Germany. Food arrived quickly, showcasing fantastic German flavors - those giant pretzels, crispy potato pancakes, and German fries were highlights! With a stellar beer list and incredibly welcoming staff, it felt like home. We're already planning our return! read more

updated review Went last weekend. didn't even park as it was already after 7 pm and the parking area was pretty empty, What surprised me was they were still collecting the $8.00 cover charge. Not that $8.00 is going to break the bank, but cover and a beer and your already in $17-18 dollars. If I go with friends then no problem. But its tough to get people out of the house when it's 25 degrees, then add an $8.00 cover charge is in my opinion a deterrent. The summer is fine, always a good time, will happily pay the cover, which probably helps pays for the band. Bartenders are great. The food, if you eat at the bar, is your typical bar fare. overall a fun place. Especially in the warmer weather when you can sit outside in the Hugh yard. Beir garden) read more

Very large space with a live bad in the outdoor seating space, and a typical indoor space. The bar offers limited beers (I was hoping for the grapefruit beer but they didn't have it).

I came for there Bavarian Fest, so this review is solely based on that experience. I was there with my boyfriend, cousin and parents. We had a great time! We enjoyed huge beers and yummy food. The food we had was bratwurst, pretzel with beer cheese, and potato pancakes. Yummmm all around. Food was cash only which surprised us all, but there was an ATM on premises. There were a few games during the festival as well as vendors, live music and dance shows. Great time all around! read more

Some of the best German food I've had on Long Island! This place is more than just food, it's an adventure. You have the restaurant upfront, then a giant beer hall out back that also serves quick service food like brats and potato pancakes. The beers were cold and delicious! There was music playing, people everywhere having a great time. I spent about 3 hours there and completely forgot I was on Long Island. read more
