Coming from Germany I can attest that Paulaner serves the most authentic and delicious German cuisine I had so far in NYC. The excellent beer speaks for itself.

Classic Oktoberfest food, including delectable desserts and, of course, beer. The concept of “tank to table” is taken to heart here as the place also functions as a brewery for their in-house beer. Read more

Pork Knuckle, Bierschapps, cucumber salad, the pretzels were amazing, potato salad, Wiener schnitzel. I wanted to run into the kitchen to hug my great grandmother for the great meal she cooked!

Former spot of Sammy's Bowery Follies, a divey cabaret spot in the 40's and 50's where ex-Vaudeville performers sang and danced for the crowds on sawdust-sprinkled floors. Read more

Try the "Baska Snaps med Malort" ($11) - a potato-derived spirit imbued with anise-like flavors of caraway, licorice & citrus and finished with a pinch of sugar and a dose of distilled wormwood. Read more

The German beer titans first brewpub in the US, all 3 beers are brewed on the premises. Hefeweizen, Munich lager & Munich dark.
Tif C.January 7, 2016
Very cute atmosphere and friendly people. Food was pretty good (the pretzel was great!) and all the beers are brewed in house. Different than what you'll get bottled as its a different recipe!

This German spot is the first brewpub to open in Manhattan in over two years. The big space will pack in crowds, but it's beer poured fresh from serving tanks that'll keep beer lovers coming back.

Oktoberfest food every day of the year. They brew their beers in house and I'd go for the hefeweizen or Schwartzbier. The kölsch is good but not as good as the ones actually from Koln.
New York PostJanuary 28, 2015
Be sure to try a Scandinavian import called Bäska Snaps med Malört, a liqueur that's imbued with flavors of caraway, licorice, and citrus, then finished with a pinch of sugar. Read more

This is going to be a successful bar in NYC. Brew their own beer and their fermenting tanks add to the atmosphere! And it's pretty good beer too.
Jessica WSeptember 7, 2014
A fusion of German tradition with a modern day twist in both food and atmosphere. Highly recommend the Bavarian burger. Best French fries in Manhattan so far
Fueled CollectiveSeptember 20, 2013
The Munich based brewery and restaurant finally opens in New York City. Amazing brew and genuine German food makes this place a great after work option.

The back area is a good refuge to watch some sports on TV as the Bowery becomes more like 57th Street.

This place is legit: the original brewery operation in Germany has been run by Bavarian monks for 375 years, and this location has six special beers to call its own
Brad GaroonJune 18, 2015
The Bratwurst Burger is decent enough, with a big pretzel bun and a solid sausage patty, but there are tastier things on the menu, like the spätzle. Read more

Get the beer flight! It's the best way to get to know what beers are currently available. Then if you like one enough, order a full pint.
Bitches Who BrunchOctober 15, 2015
The Bitches say: B. German brauhaus food isn’t exactly ‘Bitchy,’ but most of the dishes were tasty. If not for brunch, definitely check out Paulaner for great happy hour specials or to watch a game. Read more

Their homemade sausages! We did a sausage making class here and got to see how good a quality their produce and methods are. Highly recommend
Wilson ZhouMarch 30, 2014
German style burger! The best I have ever had! And house brewed Munich beer! If you love Deutsch stuff, definitely stop by!
Jasmine 💫December 14, 2015
🍺 and ⚽️ with 3 open viewing areas: at the bar, in a corner niche with tables, and at a long communal table. Toilets for Bayern fans only.

A big, fun brewery. They show all the Bayern Munich soccer games. Great for groups.
Romaric FavergeatJune 21, 2014
Great place! Home brewed beer and amazing food. Was here for the soccer works cup and it's was a great atmosphere
Chet ManciniMarch 26, 2015
Great German beer and plenty of space. Big vats make for good instagrams.
Anne Mai BertelsenJanuary 8, 2014
If you like amber ales, order the Munich dark. It's only dark in color; tastes like a caramelly amber. Order the spaetzle with mushrooms. Comfort food for a cold night
Ranu RajkarnikarMay 8, 2016
Spacious for large groups and some pretty good food here. Schnitzel + sausages are winners.
Mike M.August 17, 2014
Try the Lemon Weizen. Not bad. A decent hefeweizen with a lemon twist and 6.6%
Adam SchuitMarch 29, 2017
Great beer and German style food. Good for a pregame or group event in a well located area of town.
David HuAugust 1, 2015
Great for groups and usually pretty empty. Come here if Loreley nearby is full!

At Paulaner you have the option to preorder large format feasts like whole duck, suckling pigs and veal shanks. Read more

Eric FNovember 23, 2013
Soft opening. Service rusty. That'll change. Delicious beer and amazing food. Try the Jägerschnitzel.
Michael KleinJanuary 31, 2017
In-house brewed beer is fantastic. Great for events.
Carli DOctober 11, 2016
