Went here with friends for brunch! Was able to easily modify a salad and the avocado toast to be vegan - it would be great if Radegast could put this on the menu as an option, would set it apart from other beer halls. The atmosphere was nice, it was pretty quiet when we arrived but started to get busier around 2pm. The beers were really good!
I did not realize that there were excellent Biergartens in NYC. Radegast is definitely up there in terms of service, atmosphere, and food. We were able to get a giant eight Cedar table outside of the restaurant, and there was a QR code on the tables that let you individually open tabs in order food. Note that if you want any of the grill options, you have to physically walk inside to the grill and order separately from there. The grill has a lot of good options ranging from different types of sausages to sides like French fries. They are freshly made delicious. You can buy an aïoli to go beautifully with the grilled items, or you can grab any one of the free condiments on the side of the grill. I would also highly recommend getting their french fries. These might be some of the best french fries you will find in New York City! We also got their pretzel with beer cheese, mustard, and a pickle. My only critique would be that the beer cheese is lacking. It needs something more because in its current form, it is pretty flavorless and too watery. The pitchers of beers for $20 is an excellent price! The pitchers are easily at least 60 ounces! It filled up over 3 glasses. Their wheat beer is excellent and pairs really well with the foods they serve.
I had a good time here. On their brunch menu, I had a pretzel and lager beer. I enjoyed the pretzel, which came out hot with some sauces. The beer lager and dark, of course was on point. I tried their kielbasa a type of sausage on their grill menu you had to get up, order and pay separately, which I thought was inconvenient. But I enjoyed the smokiness and how juicy it was. It came with crispy fries and horseradish. The horseradish didn’t have the kick I was expecting, quick mild. We later came back to try the bone marrow, first time, and it was sublime. To be honest, I was unsure of the texture, but to my surprise it was smooth and creamy with a lot of juices. Great to spread on toast and top off with their relish. We sat outside and enjoyed our meals. The service was polite, friendly, efficient because it can be very busy at dinner time and they wore masks. The price was worth the experience and quality. Would come back!
There's always a great vibe at Radegast! Our last visit was a Sunday afternoon and there was some great live music, plenty of seats, and amazing service. Most of the beers are great, but I'd recommend the Spaten Lager for a classic European Lager taste. If you're in need of a snack, the loaded fries with bacon and paprika are a great shout! The place can get quite busy during the weekend evenings, but it all adds to the fun atmosphere.
Amazing selection of Oktoberfest beers. Full bar. I only drank and had the pretzel with beer cheese, 100% must order. Rest of menu looked amazing. Fun bartenders, despite how packed it was, they were all very attentive. Huge space, multiple large party tables inside, multiple mixed party seating tables for about 20 in secondary hall with secondary smaller bar. Outdoor seating as well for about 6-10 if you want to get cozy. After 1pm on Saturday October 1 there was a massive line, be prepared during Oktoberfest for this. Will return, hands down.
I love this place. Good food, good beer. Had a "mega pint" of Hafbrau on a whim after dinner. Maybe the best place in williamsburg to have a drink and just hang out. Employees took care of me and my various guests on multiple visits.
This is such a nice spot. Seating inside and out, with super friendly service. We only had a beer and a pretzel but would love to come back and really sample the menu.
Very cool ambiance and our waitress was fun to hang out with! The beers were really good and served in giant liter mugs! The curry bratwurst was off the hook and went well with my beer!Recommended dishesCurrywurst, Giant Pretzel
I’m in love with this place! I don’t live near by but I’ll definitely come back often especially now during the summer. The beers are amazing and the food veal schnitzel meal is my favorite is delicious! The environment is very cool and love the playlist playing there. The service is also 5 stars for me.
Grab your lieder hausen, your wife Helga, and come on down to this Biergarten. We actually stumbled across this place by accident and were super happy. It’s a great place to have a drink in a big open space. They sold beer by the liter+ which makes for great pictures and general excitement.
