Great German beer menu, and large stein glasses. Friendly staff. Kitchen closes at 10pm I believe. Very close and convenient to several nearby hotels. Want to come back and try out more different foods and beer :-) Lots of German style hall ambiance which might be a little touristy but I liked it :-) read more

Reichenbach Hall - Currywurst w Fries $14.95 + $3 for the fries - okay, but too much tomato perhaps? - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Big space. Nice German menu. Came in for lunch. A bit specific to me but I don't drink sodas and wanted a simple soda water. Despite the fact that I can see the soda gun behind the bar with a club soda button I was told that my only option was to order a can of club soda, which I'm sure was double the cost of a simple Coca-Cola or other soda. I would've been happy to pay for a soda but was not given that option. I ended up ordering water a Reuben and french fries and my ticket was 24 bucks. The Ruben & fries were both good. read more

Reichenbach Hall - Hacker Pschorr Dunkel - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Great beer. Great food. Easy folks to deal with. Quick service and it resembles a German beer hall.

I do enjoy a solid good ol German bier and pub so we can hear for an early weekend dinner around 5pm. It was actually relatively empty so definitely didn't have to grab a reservation. The gentleman who was our waiter was friendly though one item from our order was forgotten until we checked in on it later down. The food was alright - we ordered sausages and pretzels which came with sauerkraut. While the pretzel was fine the sausages were just ok. I can confirm the beer was enjoyed and they probably helped me enjoy the overall time a little more. The place itself is cute with German inspired aesthetic. Always find it pretty cool to see places like these so can say it was one of the cooler parts of the experience. Overall, generally friendly service, ok food, good beer. read more

Solid experience at this German beer hall in Midtown Manhattan! My daughter and I both had the sauerbraten, and some potato pancakes with applesauce and sour cream. The food was delicious. I had a Poliner pills near which was great, always a favorite. The service was very German, not much in the way of smiles, but efficient. read more

German pub. Open til midnight on a Wednesday evening. Close to our Hotel. Lot of available seating, music blaring and sports on the Tv of course My friend is a sports fanatic. We saw this place a few days ago when we got in town& She wanted to check it out so finally had time tonight. We Got here around 1030pm after a show & we were happy it was still open and kitchen was still taking orders. Bar gals just friendly enough to offer a menu & take our food orders. I guess thats was the best we were gonna get for the night as had to ask for everything else we needed to eat or drink. Prob diff experience for men - ‍ dunno Prices - one pint beer $16 + Food from $14 and up GF- ordered chicken wings & Pilsner. I Ordered fries and gravy $14 & tap water. Overall we both enjoyed our food -that's what we came for. It's NY I guess. read more

We were missing RH touuugh and had to visit last night around 10PM. Our friendly waitress provided quick and friendly service, the inside had a lively vibe. Ordered the Bratfisch Schnitzel (still the only German-style spot in I've seen it at in Manhattan) w/ 2 sides. The must haves are still the Gurkensalat (cucumber salad) + the kartoffelsalat (potato salad) instead of fries. BF gets the vegan wurst plate with red cabbage and sauerkraut. Love both of those too but the sauerkraut my family has made was better. This one needs more tanginess/sourness. Pretzel app with their pungent dijon mustard hits the spot. Dinner plates are a bit expensive imo ($28 for mine and $24 for his) for how small the sides are but with the Midtown location, it makes sense. The drinks menu is fabulous -- tons of German classic beers, fun cocktails and mocktails, German wines, and a mix of German and American hard liquors. They have a lot of tvs, including a huge screen in the back which we watched a football game on and essentially got a private viewing experience since it wasn't busy back there. I wanna reiterate from my past review; this is theee perfect place to hang out with a large group while grabbing drinks and catching a game. The beers range from small to a huge glass BOOT. If you wanna get sloshed and eat some good, hearty food, stop on by. read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon around 3-4pm with a group of friends post lunch . A perfect place to have a beer or two ( or more ) and spend of the afternoon where you do feel like you're celebrating Oktoberfest in Germany, well decorated and the staff were also dressed in lederhosen ( females ). When we first got there, the place was super full , might be a brunch spot . It started to dissipate around 5 but a new slew came in around 7ish . Overall a fun place ,centrally located in midtown , close to major points of interest ( Empire State , subways , Bryant park , etc). Highly recommend the sausage platter for sharing to try all the different types! read more

Reichenbach Hall - Can't get one's hands off the sausage platter ! - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Noisy. Crowded. Delightful. If you head into Reichenbach Hall, be prepared for the chaos and joy associated. Reichenbach was close to our hotel so we stopped by a few times during our week in NYC. Each time, we tried a new brewski and enjoyed the delicious food. One night, we tried the brotzeit charcuterie plate. Though the vegetables were a bit excessive with the sour, we loved the rye bread with meats and cheeses as we enjoyed our lagers. On another evening, we tried the potato pancakes and gurkensalat. Both were perfect, especially the little bit of applesauce to top off the potato pancakes. As a tourist, I appreciated how Reichenbach did the job of providing tasty food with a unique entertainment experience. I also appreciated the fact that it looked like some short or long-term locals were enjoying the vibes as well. read more

Big, bold, and unmistakably Bavarian Reichenbach Hall delivers everything you'd expect from a classic German beer hall in Midtown: long wooden tables, clinking beer steins, and the cozy scent of sauerkraut in the air. I went with the bratwurst, and it did not disappoint juicy, flavorful, and served generously over sauerkraut and potatoes. The waiter was amazing. Having spent most of his life in Germany, his service reflects thoughtfulness and precision. He never pressures you to order; instead, he asks about your appetite and recommends dishes based on portion size. Attentive without ever being intrusive, Rudy checks in with genuine care one of the most considerate and detailed servers I've encountered in the city. read more

Great spot to watch a game! Lots of tvs and tons of seating. This place is really authentic and has the best soft pretzel in nyc!! Tons of beers on tap that are cold a delicious! Highly recommend if you are in midtown and want to post up and watch a game read more

We lived in Germany for 6 years and miss really good German food (and beer!) This place hit all the marks. Plate-sized schnitzel with fries an cucumber salad (we had paprika rahm, crispy, and jaegerschnitzel) and my son's wurst plate had delicious red cabbage and sauerkraut. We also had potato pancakes to start and they transported me back to Germany Weinacht Markts. The beer was delicious and authentic, and the atmosphere, with long German beer tables, was spot on. We are going back before we leave! read more

Ambiance: This is a German-inspired spot, not necessarily authentic German food (aside from the names). It is a German decorated tourist trap restaurant. I was recently in Germany (and have been to different parts of Germany many times) and can tell you that the food has nothing German. Service: They charge for soda refills, unlike other places. Place is getting a lot of hype due to Instagram but it isn't worth your time. The service is not great. I was there during lunch with an empty restaurant and still took a long time to get food. I have ordered an appetizer and a entree and both came at the same time. The side cheese of my pretzel was frozen cold. Food: Not great. Schnitzel was subpar. Pretzel was good, but the beer cheese on the side was still frozen. Overall: skip it, not worth your time or money. This restaurant is getting a lot of hype due to Instagram influencers pushing it out, don't fall for it. read more

Food was incredible. Service was great. Highly recommend the sauerbraten and spatzel. Atmosphere was upbeat. Would definitely go back!

Delicious German beer. Giant pretzels. What's there not to love?!? Yeah, the servers dressed in lederhosen are a bit much. It definitely has the touristy vibe, but it's in Midtown next to hotels and it was open late ... so this tourist partook of its food and drinks. This restaurant has long, picnic-like tables, and my husband, brother-in-law and I were able to easily get space at a table. The German beers on draft are definitely a highlight. I ordered my German beer go-to, Franziskaner Hefeweizen, and there were several others I haven't regularly seen on tap. And it's nice to enjoy your beer while snacking on an Oktoberfest pretzel. The space also features several TVs, so if you're looking for a spot to watch a game, this could also be a good option. read more

Great beer and food ! Traditional German atmosphere. Great service and attention from Fiona. This beer is the best ! Pilsener and Octoberfest heaven. We ate the huge pretzel as an app for 4. Could feed 6. Authentic. Dinners were great too. Solid German cuisine. read more

I did some research on what restaurants were near my hotel in New York. This came up less than 3 blocks away. I'm a sucker for Bavarian food. And I'm even more of a sucker for a law and order filming location. Food is SO good. We had a pretzel, potato pancakes, the works. This was the best way to start our trip. read more

Wow so impressed. It's a huge beer hall. It's everything right with NYC, NYC food and Octoberfest. The live music was amazing. There were like 20 plus musicians and dancers. I believe Barvarian, literally visiting to be on stage here. What a performance. Staff was phenomenal. Great fun crowd. Tje gigantic pretzel was soft n fresh. Best in nyc. Loved the mustard and cheese dip. he beers were tasty. The pork knuckles meal was phenomenal. Honestly seasoned and cooked perfectly. Wow. Impressive. Tender n the inside and crispy on the outside. The bread ball yummy. The German Mac and cheese with onions. Insanely good. Hand made noodles. We liked all the plates. We got vegan sausages for the vegan at the table. Good. The German potatoe salad and 2 types of sauerkraut delicious. The sausages devine. The new pancake dessert was fresh and warm. Perfect for fall. Yep. Im a fan. Definitely a star of nyc. read more

This place is incredible! Our bartender Rudy was absolutely phenomenal--he truly made our experience unforgettable!

Hidden gem in the heart of midtown! Was looking for a stein of beer after a long run, which is hard to find outside of Oktoberfest season in the city. Reichenbach offers HUGE pours (including boots) in a variety of German beers, even their own! It truly felt like I was in Germany- long family size picnic tables and thematic outfits worn by staff. Impressive amount or real estate for the city. Service was super attentive and friendly. We only tried a pretzel, which was good albeit a tad expensive. On a Sunday it was relatively empty, got a table right away. Will be back! read more

I was expecting a bit more from the food, but I liked the beer! Service was good and ambience was pleasant for a beer hall.

The atmosphere is really Bavarian, waitresses are helpful. In fact more like a Deutch sports bar though the game played on TVs inside is american football and ice hockey. I regret to say I was disappointed by the food, especially the Goulash. Beef is obviously melted from frozen ones and eats like paper box. I don't know how signature pork shanks are but Goulash is definitely out of my recommendation. Currywurst tastes good, the flavor of ketchup with curry powder is nice, worth a try. read more

Great German food. Nice Ambiance with top notche service. There is nothing to complain about. I really enjoyed the meal there. I would definitely return. If you are looking for a great German meal, I recommend this place. Waitresses are dressed in German costume. Foods are authentic. We had Currywurst, shnizel and meat sasuage platter, they were all delicious. I would definitely return for schnizel, we had pork. I think we found a favorite German place. read more

We visited Reichenbach Hall just to reminisce about our love of the Hofbrauhaus in Munich. It definitely has a different vibe and wasn't as much of a traditional German beer hall as I was hoping. It really is just more of a bar that serves German food and that's ok. The people who were there were definitely having fun and that's what matters. The food was okay, the beer selection was good and the service was what you expect at a bar. I think they have a good thing going for their regulars so good for them! read more

The place looks exactly like a good old fashioned beer hall. I've been here many times and have tried many liters of their beers. Never a miss. Finally decided to write a review after trying their food for the first time, which happens to be a alice of their Black Forest cake. It's a weird combo to do cake and beer but it works. Service can be a bit hit or miss. On some days they take your order quick and the beers come out fast but oddly I've been here on a slow Saturday afternoon and the service also seemed slow as well. Overall, this is a fun place to grab a couple of beers and catch a sports game on their multiple TVs. Been here multiple times and you can bet I'll be coming here multiples in the future as well. read more

I had read a few reviews that said service was a little slow, but it was fairly good on the evening I visited. We initially had to wait a bit between receiving our menus and ordering, but after that everything went smoothly. We started out with a pretzel to share, the pretzel was about 10in wide, good enough for the four of us. We ordered a mixed bratwurst plate, two schnitzels, and a vegan wurst (made of soy). The beer is always good, choose what you like, I am a dunkel lover through and through, thanks to the original Hofbrauhaus. All of our entrees were good. The sauerkraut and potato salad were big hits too. I was genuinely surprised by the serving sizes we received, we all left with stomachs very full. (My only gripe was I felt the gravy for the schnitzel needed more salt.) Reichenbach appears to be a fun place to watch a game too, the vibe here is lively and loud - definitely deserves a visit if you love German food and beer. read more

Reichenbach Hall - Pork Schnitzel was massive! - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

A good and varied selection of beers to cater for all tastes. From light radlers, through pilsner and ales to dark lagers and whit beers. Drinks come in 500ml "pint" glasses or you can order in a 1 litre stein. Service was very prompt and friendly, without being too intrusive. We didn't try the food, but from what we saw other people eating it all looked very good and traditional to what you would find in German beerhall. The one downside to this place was it was almost too painfully loud to stay. Whilst we were there the place was only around half full and even then it was hard to have a conversation with people at the same table. A few sound dampening tiles in the ceiling wouldn't go amiss. read more

Decent, authentic, spartan, German beer hall on 37th street between 5th and 6th. The music is loud and textbook German touristy. The beer selection is strong and there big TVs to watch sports while you drink. The food is pretty good, I wouldn't say outstanding. My guest had the Kielbasa which was very good. I had the mixed sausage platter which was good but not amazing. I feel like it had only 3 types of sausages and not 4 as promised but perhaps I was unable to distinguish a few of them. The sauerkraut was good and the potato salad just OK. I really like good German food so I'm probably setting a high bar. Come here for a beer, and maybe eat. Get the kielbasa if you do. read more

Long overdue review of Reichenbach Hall. I wanted to host a birthday party for my boyfriend and was able to book two tables of 10 for the event. The venue was large, with lots of TVs for folks to watch whatever game was on. It was clean and not too loud by the time we arrived. From start to finish, even when it came down to planning, the venue was really accommodating. We initially got two long tables inside, but I asked them after arriving if we can be seated outside since it felt a little stuffy, and one of the employees, possibly a manager, got another worker and moved tables around outside so we'd be more comfortable and can get a section to ourselves. On top of that, the service during the duration of our stay was wonderful. I don't remember her name, but she was so attentive, and the other staff members cleared out our empty dishes quite often. The only thing I'm sad about is the fact that I didn't get to try any of the food! It looked so good, and I anticipate coming back here for group events in the future. read more

From the welcoming smile as you enter into this pub to the great selection of "beirs" beers takes you to Germany . The food is traditional, so when I'm Rome... eat a schnitzel. when you walk in you don't feel like your in midtown Manhattan! You feel like your in a German pub high in their mountains! Drinking delicious beer and eating flavorful dishes. I think this place is great, because you get removed from the city! Though there is nothing wrong with the city, it's just a cool feeling to be disconnected. Take in the decor and what they have to offer, you won't be disappointed. read more

I arrived around 6:30 pm and, even though Reichenbach Hall was buzzing, Sarita made sure I was never left waiting. She anticipated my needs and stayed ahead of me at every step -- I never had to flag anyone down. The bar offers excellent food (think hearty German fare) paired with a superb beer selection. The ambiance is lively and fun: communal tables, big screens showing all the major sports, and that energetic beer-hall spirit. Sarita and the entire staff were warm, attentive, and enthusiastic the whole time. Definitely a 5/5 -- highly recommend! read more

Great german food can be so hard to find. I was hopeful that in a city such as New York, where amazing food seems more effortless than other cities, I might be in for a pork schnitzel treat as I headed for a quick two block walk from the Hyatt Centric to give it a try while I was in town. It was late afternoon, and as I walked in, it was lazily quiet in the restaurant. One or two people at the bar and a few seated at tables but not much happening. Not sure if that's typical but it was only 5pm or so. I wanted to sit outside under their sidewalk tent with tables and was thus instructed to order at the bar, and they would bring the food out. The gent at the bar taking my order couldn't have been nicer and I placed my order for Pork Schnitzel, grabbed a beer and sat outside. Within a short time, a plate arrived with fries, german potato salad, and a generous portion of pork schnitzel. As you can see from my picture, it was satisfyingly large and definitely photogenic. However, I wish I could say it was as good as it looked. First off, it wasn't breaded in an authentic way (if that makes sense). Instead of a thin crispy breadcrumb coating, it was more like a slightly orange hued thick batter, like you might get on chicken fried steak. It still tasted fine but it did seem a little odd. Unfortunately though, the cardinal sin was that it was super dry. It's not that it was pounded too thin, it was a thicker pork schnitzel as those things go but clearly overcooked which is a shame as it looked like it would have been delicious otherwise. Nonetheless, certainly edible...it was "okay" but in an area like Midtown and for a visitor like myself, I felt like this meal was a wasted opportunity and I should have gone to a more iconic well reviewed place given my limited time in the city. Oh well, the service was still great and friendly and the food was certainly okay, but I was truly hoping for "wow" and was a bit disappointed. read more
