The Hof Downtown

On our first visit, we were disappointed because all the sausages and the ocean trout were sold out. So we cancelled our lunch and went out. The manager (the person in charge that day) said really sorry for the trouble and asked us to come back 2 days ahead as the sausages stocks will be piled up again. We came back a week after, and the nice manager turned out still remember us! So he again apologized for the inconvenience we experience and offered us snapps on the house! Free of charge. We were really happy and appreciated. Service 10/10 For the food, MUST try their pork knuckle, really really juicy inside and crunchy outside! Perfect 10/10 The sausages were delicious 9/10 Lager beer was light and easy to drink, Dunkel was perfect too 10/10 And the snapps 👍🏻👍🏻 The restaurant was clean and ambiance was comfortably good. 10/10 Will come back? SURE!

You have to try, cannot recommend enough. Absolutely amazing experience everything is wonderful from the very friendly service to food to atmosphere. One of the best restaurants I have ever been to. We had the bretzel schnitzel, the cheese kransky, the creme caramel, the apple strudel and schnapps (cherry and butterscotch).

This place is in a good location and has a good atmosphere to catch up with friends. The menu didn't speak to me too much, but the drinks were good. I went for the pomegranate cocktail and enjoyed it, even though I doubted I would. The Kransky dish wasn't anything out of this world, but tasted good, and I wouldn't mind ordering it again.

This Bavarian bar is the place to go in Docklands area if you are looking to get your German beers fix. The venue is big with seatings indoor and outdoor, perfect for mini special occasion. The food are your typical bar food but Bavarian style. The meat Platter is the perfect introduction to the cuisine and can feed 3 - 4 people. Sausages are my favourite here.
