TheColdest WynterEverMay 31, 2014Cash only. Seats 40-55. Outdoor seating. Great wait staff. TRY THE BEERMOSA!!!!! So glad I did. They're awesome and fairly strong. Not unlimited though I think they were $4 each. Def worth it!!!!
Harlem AmbassadorMarch 7, 2013College types and nabe trendsetters binge on high quality brews and wursts. Wine on tap and truffle fries offer a change from the typical beer garden. Mixed crowd gives the UN a run in the diversity
CompassMay 15, 2014Grab a sunny spot on the street-facing patio, tuck into currywurst and brats at the German-infused restaurant, or grab happy hour cocktails at the swank bar.
Currywurst outside of Berlin is hard to find. Their spin on this classic dish is really great and makes it a touch upscale. You can even have the fries replaced with Cous Cous :)
Legit Bavarian pretzels from Bavaria. Outside seating. Fútbol on TV. Great people. And DOG FRIENDLY!!!
Try their delicious guacamole during happy hour, when it's discounted, and enjoy a beer on the sidewalk patio.
Uju BerryFebruary 6, 2016One of my favorites in Harlem. Always great food, beer, service. Love the music with special guests. Can't go wrong
The Corcoran GroupApril 1, 2011Enjoy an awesome selection of beers from all over the world at this Harlem hot spot – it gets crowded. Try their Bratwurst, Bier Steak Burger or Continental Board.
Awesome bar. Lots of good craft brews, great atmosphere, and the bartenders and managers are fantastic.
Elie BleierFebruary 10, 2013Great beer selection. Truffle fries used to be better, still delicious though. Loud at times, but overall a great place. Bring back the cute French waitress!
CristinaAugust 31, 2014Great service, good selection of beer and very chill for a Saturday afternoon.
Truffle fries are a must! Their new summertime sangria ($8/glass) is delicious and packed with watermelon and peach.
Donald is the best. He and Dedeou are awesome. And they are my buddies. Love those guys and Chris, Ousmane, Adriano, the gals over there. My homies! :D
My favorite happy hour spot in Harlem. The staff is friendly and the Fruli is a must if you're not really into "beer" like me
HI - New YorkJanuary 13, 2012Amazing fries, best beer selection in the area and a great way to kickoff the evening if you feel like a little walk past Central Park.- They've just added Maibock to their list of amazing beers. If you haven't had this before you need to. Take it from an ex-pat!! :)
Heads up: you know that sweet free beer you've been waiting for when you've checked in that 10th time? Brace yourself for sadness, it's basically the size of a thimble and only the house choice. :-(- truffle fries are delish. also be sure to try the reissdorf kolsch, the hofbrau, fruli, duvel or the fuller's (that last one is simply for my own nostalgia)
Luke KingmaAugust 15, 2011Great little beer spot in Harlem with amazing truffle fries and some really unique draft beers (Jenlain on draft!)
Truffle fries are my absolute Fav! The crab cakes eggs Benedict is also really good!!!
You will be greeted by a wonderful host named Donald and some of the best beers around the world. Try the Tusker beer from Kenya while you're at it!
Josh Weinberger (@kitson)August 18, 2010Thrilled the place is (finally!) open. Good selection (see link), fantastically friendly manager (Donald). Adds life to the block. Thx to all-cement surfaces, acoustics are a little rough, though. Read more
Akiko BombitaSeptember 9, 2014Cash only. If you want to get something light and fruity for a change get the strawberry fruli beer.
David SNovember 27, 2011Great beers, love the small glasses for trying new ones. Steer clear of the salmon quesadilla, and beware it's a cash-only spot.
Beer selection 👍🏼Truffle fries 😋Ambiance 👌🏼
Neelu RaviJune 24, 2018Good selection of beer and sausages which didn’t disappoint my Deutsch friends. Rest of the food is ok!!- I always love it in there. The staff are all cool peeps! Tons of food options prepared by a top notch chef!
Xiano HNovember 11, 2012Service isn't bad at all like many have commented. Decent German/Belgian beer selection. Definitely try the Fruli. LOTS OF KIDS, even at 9pm on a Sat. Skip the food. Cash only but they do have an ATM.
@JaumePrimeroApril 2, 2012Awesome spot for brunch, and completely casual atmosphere. Love the communal seating!
Brew YorkSeptember 19, 2011Celebrate Oktoberfest here from on Saturdays and Sundays through 10/2, with live music and traditional food, plus the crowning of an Oktoberfest Queen on 10/2 at 5pm!
Katie DesmondOctober 9, 2010so excited to see this place in my neighborhood! the food is good (although the staff is slow, and i found at times didn't really know what they were doing). beer selection is terrific. I feel as
- Ein richtige Biergarten in Harlem?? Was nich brauchst du?? Get beers from 6 continents and just chill not to far from Central Park!!
One of the few places in Manhattan where you could find the Bronx Brewery's Pale Ale.
Michelle AlexanderJuly 25, 2012The steak taco special is amazing! Heads up though this place is cash only.
Yi Jia ChouJuly 16, 2011Best truffle fries I've ever had! Good selection of beers, but prices are a bit steep. And where are the American craft beers?- The lamb burger is everything. Make the fries "truffle" - a must!
love this place but the only con is ... they take only cash ! cmooon who carries cash nowdays !? take visa or MC (at least) already !!!
A KMarch 8, 20122 for 1 happy hours for the imported draught beers. Not to be scoffed, sniffed or sneezed at.
Ousmane KeitaJanuary 28, 2011February will become "The Month of the Wurst" (German for sausage) at Bier International. Check out our Special Wurst Menu. Read more- Ousmane KeitaMarch 2, 2011Congrats to Steven Skip Crowell @yoskip for becoming our new mayor on foursquare. Next time you come, the first bier on tap is on us.
TobiasAugust 25, 2012The menu has no integrity so stick with beer and, if you must eat, the sausage & meat offerings
