Reviews of Bierhaus
M. O.
I have just visited Bierhaus for the first time, it was on my list for long time. And I have definitely not been disappointed. Brilliant selection of beers. That are fresh and taste amazing. Didn't have food this time, but what I could see it looked great. Staff was nice, pleasant and very helpful. Will definitely come again. Excellent pub/restaurant, highly recommend a visit.

Proper beer and great food, if you like your German grub (or are curious) then this is the place to be. Be warned, your eyes will be bigger than your belly, but thankfully they offer takeout boxes. I've missed going to a bierhaus since moving out of London, so glad to have found this place, will be back again, and again, and again....

2nd visit here & both have been great. No frills but good honest authentic German beer and food. First time I had bratwurst which were delicious & the sauerkraut the best I've had outside of Germany. This time Beirhaus roulade, pork filled with cheese/gherkin & pan fried, it was tasty but unfortunately rather overcooked on one side which made it tough. Think it was probably an oversight on chefs part as all other meals have been top class. The wiener schnitzel is amazing!
I particularly liked the strawberry beer and the banana beer also went down well. Would recommend a visit if you like trying different cuisines, we will definitely return.
M. B.
This is one of our favourite restaurants in Reading - fantastic menu, really tasty food and vegetarian options. Also great to get a tankard of beer. Nice friendly atmosphere. Beware, the platter is way too big for two people!
G. H.
Love the beer here, and the food is good traditional fair. Staff are always friendly, but what let's it down are the erratic opening times. Took a friend one Friday as I had told him how good it was. Should have opened at 4pm, but 4.20pm and still not open, so we went elsewhere. Not the first time either
M.
Big portions of good food, beer was great quality, decent prices, great atmosphere. If anything the only complain was it took a while to get seated because they're so popular!
K. N.
Wonderful place! So much schnitzel! Great food, great beer. Highly recommend.
J. C.
Great beer, nice cabbage dishes.
T. H.
This place is great. Massive meal sizes and really tasty. Good value for money and great service with friendly staff. Lots of options of German beers so the place loves up to it name, you can get steins (1 litre glasses!!) To help your German experience.
Brilliant place if you want to try german food and a very casual atmosphere for a chilled meal and a few drinks.
N. J.
As a non-beer drinker, I nevertheless love this place. Tucked away in a quieter part of the city centre, it's never been too crowded on any of my previous visits. The food is excellent - hearty portions and well-cooked. Enjoy!
L. C.
Very tasty and VERY filling. German food is more about hearty, tasty deliciousness. It’s not subtle and will leave you stuffed to the gills. There’s excellent value for money here, and the beer is worth the trip!
A. L.
Interesting independent restaurant near to Hexagon selling germanic food and great beer. My wife had cheese sticks for starters whereas I ordered the chicken wings which were covered in a BBQ sauce and great to eat. The main course was jagerschnitzel which consisted of schnitzel, fried potatoes, creamy mushroom sauce and salad. The schnitzel portion was huge. Don't be surprised if you can't manage it and need to ask for a doggy bag. I can't speak for the beer as I am doing dry January!
L. C.
Food was tasty but service was slow, waited nearly an hour for food after we ordered. There was a good quantity of food too, I took home the left overs.
If you order during happy hour you can get good discounts.
The muesli shell deep fried ice cream was absolutely delicious.
T. P.
Really good beer. Great food. And happy hour is brilliant. I think the decor let's it down a bit though. But highly recommend
J. L.
Great selection of german beers..nice atmosphere to meetup with friends..great service..highly recommended for all beer lovers🍻🙏❤
L. A.
Sehr gut!!
Visited for lunch on a Saturday.
Huuuuuge portions of very tasty food, good beer selection. I had a pint of Cherry beer (£6) and the Jägerschnitzel (£14). The schnitzel was almost as big as the plate, so it hid the yummy bratkartoffeln (sliced potatoes) underneath, wonderful mushroom sauce and dressed salad... and it was all delicious!! 😋
I'm glad I'd skipped breakfast, so I was able to finish mine.. not everyone manages apparantly!!
Come hungry...fill up with great German food and beer... leave happy!!
I will be back to try other dishes for sure.
(I'm going to plan my next visit to take advantage of their Happy Hour offers👍🏻😏)

We didn't book a table on a Saturday night so we weren't expecting much, however, the bartender was very helpful and told us he'd keep an eye on the tables and let us know when one was free - brilliant service! Really fantastic, quality selection of beers available and all at good prices. They didn't put a foot wrong with the food either! We had a really good time here and it had a great atmosphere, will be back here again.
This isn't auf wiedersehen, this is just tschüss.
M. D.
Great selection of European beers, from Bavarian Pilsners to the infamous Samichlaus 14% doppelbock. Great food too and most importantly all very well priced.
G. M. A.
Such a fab place. Staff were great and food really lovely. My first time and it will not be my last.
M. S.
Great service, food and beers available. 🍺
E. B.
Great food, great atmosphere. However, I am hard of hearing and with the loud background noise, I had no chance to hear anything or join into a conversation. That was just a bit of bad luck for me. Great place.
R. C.
You want German beer, get here! Not eaten yet but food always looks and smells great. As an added bonus they have one of the world's rarest and strongest lager in a bottle. Prost, zum wohl!
D. C.
Amazing food and a great atmosphere. The Steins are amazing too. Seriously recommend getting the frickles and the burger - insane amount of food! Only downside is they do not have much of a cider selection which is to be expected. Nevertheless, would highly recommend a visit.
j. S.
Great portions of tasty German food, served up with excellent German beer and friendly service. A good spot to catch up with some beer loving mates.
i. h.
Great place with beer garden at the city center. Good german beer with fair prices. I haven't try food yet
S. M.
Literally the best food-related establishment I have ever had the privilege of patronising.
n.
Great food and drink but not dog friendly. Sad to not be able to take our furry companion. Thankfully another beer house around the corner that is.
R. C.
Tucked away on a pedestrian precinct near the Hexagon, this bar and restaurant provides a range of German beers (mostly lagers) and German food. The beers aren't cheap but are very good. The food is also great, very filling and good value for money.
No table service - order at the bar. Tables can be arranged for medium/large sized groups or couples.
D. B.
Love love love this place...Small but welcoming. Lots of German beers which we like, like the hot pretzels and German sausages. have a nice cozy place downstairs to chat and a large table area upstairs for partys. Small seating area outside. Nice friendly staff. Worth a visit.
M. P.
Good German food, good atmosphere, good friendly service, and some really good beers too. And all at a decent price. Also good measures in place for social distancing.
R. C.
FSA rating 4/5 as of 13 February 2020

Great food, amazing beer selection, fast, friendly service. The location is a little out of the way but that's not bad as you can always guarantee space to sit. I would describe this place as a hidden gem amongst a decaying part of town.
J.
Vegan and veggie options are amazing if you like seitan. I am veggie and I absolutely love the food. Staff are always brilliant and very accommodating. There's a lovely friendly atmosphere provided by the bar and waiting staff. Oh and the beer is immaculately German and delicious. Can highly recommend.
M. P.
Great beer, awesome music choice. Food wise I only ever get the platter for two to share on a table so can't comment on the rest but it's epic to share and easily does 3 people. Beers aren't the cheapest, but worth it if you go for the ones you can't readily get elsewhere for less.
M. O.
Very comfortable and cozy new pub/restaurant. Lovely staff, a great selection of beers and some amazingly tasty German food, reasonably priced and served very quickly. The starters in particular were delicious, recommend the beer battered cheese sticks!
C. C.
I come to this marvelous place every couple of days because I love the special atmosphere that is outline this place. The crew is extraordianrillyremarkably friendly and experienced. The service is extremely efficient. Also, the food you get is highly distinguished. I ate there often and I was always joyful. The payment is reasobable. I suggest this place to to all.
B. M.
Good selection of German beers and many other countries available in bottles. I think it's a wee bit over priced, including the wines. Mulled wine served to my wife was boiling hot and could not even touch the glass, mulled wine is meant to be warm and not boiling. It also was a bit chilly inside, probably mainly because the main door keeps blowing open. Staff are nice.
M. A.
One of the best places in Reading if you're very hungry and in the mood for a big sausage. Good happy hour deals if you get there early - they are strict about the cutoff time. Sometimes closed or have an event on so make sure it's open before you go.
L. C.
Authentic German food and amazing German beer selection. A bit pricey but totally worth it!
K. C.
Lovely little place, the bar area is quite tight, but the open restaurant area a flight of stairs above overlooking the pub area is quite spacious. The toilets aren't very large, one person at a time. The beers are affordable, just under £5 a pint.
There's a bus at the end of the aisle if you need to take a bus. And walking towards Readings pubs and restaurants is rather quick.
There are a few food places next to the pub and the pub itself serves amazing food
C. S.
Spoilt for choice with some great beers. My go to though is the Dortmunder Union in a Stein glass. Very refreshing!
Good portions and I like the food a lot. They always provide a great service and are very friendly. This is like a holy grail meetup when my firneds from Londonare in the area now.
G. G.
One of the best, well hidden, gems in Reading! Great selection on Continental beers and the German food is fantastic. Staff are always friendly. Highly recommend!
T. H.
Nice atmosphere, tucked away behind Broad St Mall, a decent selection of beers, hopefully the bottled selection will expand in the future.
We only drank so can't comment on food, but the menu looked like good, hearty German beer food!
J.
Little out of the way but great little place. Order from bar. Cozy seating further in at the upper floor. Excellent value for food and drinks, especially during happy hour. A must go if you want to try German food.
T.
Great place to have a drink and enjoy some good food. Excellent value for money, especially when you go during happy hour!
Service is excellent and they have a nice range of beers. Hopefully in the summer time they will put some chairs and tables out the front.
S. N.
Spartan but friendly Dutch beer hall, great for groups of friends. Closes early at 8pm on Sunday.
S. K.
Portions of gorgeous, traditional German fare, perfectly washed down with your choice of beer (steins available if you're brave!), in a relaxed and friendly venue. Do not miss the happy hour!
S. J.
I love the Bierhaus. Good range of beers. "It comes in pints" No.... It comes in STEINS! Authentic German food, done well. Portions are huge. I recommend it to anyone who will listen to me waffle on about food/beer.
i. g.
Three and a half stars really. Turned up for lunch and we were the only people in there the whole time! To be fair the food wasn't at all bad. Bratwurst, sauerkraut and potatoes all pretty authentic and a big portion. The music was bit rubbish, but an oompah band might have been a bit much too. Good value with lunchtime happy hour prices. Fair selection of German beers and £2 for prosecco for the wife. Important note, it doesn't look like the huge (Dresden) opera house which features on their website. This was something of a disappointment to my wife, I kid you not!
B. D.
If you like your beer to be good, this is the best place in Reading. "by miles"
Food wise, I tried only two starters but with pleasure. Overall one star down for really out of date decor (nothing to do with bierhouse). But the beer is good so 👍
S. L.
Reasonably priced food with epic portions. Happy hours 1600-1900 offers are epic. Outside of that a good selection of Belgian, Germanic and world beers.
N. M.
Amazing authentic German food, at s reasonable price. They offer beer in steins, albeit the beer is a bit pricey. Overall a pleasant experience!
D.
A group of us ended up here after the Reading Beer Festival. I don't remember much of what happened but I know I drank some more beer from a very large glass or 3 and had a giant lump of meat and vegetables.
I do plan on coming back her when I've sobered up to see what it's really like but drunk me thought it was a blast.
J. W.
Great food, great atmosphere and great service. I came here as part of a large group so wasn't able to fully relax and enjoy it, but I will be coming back her with just my wife as soon as I can.
Make sure you don't skip the pretzel!
C. C.
Couple jars in the bierhaus, lots of German beers on tap somthing for everyone 🍺🍺🍺
E. W.
Restaurant with good German food and beer. For meat lovers the Schweinehaxe offered here is without a doubt one of the best pork offerings I've ever sampled. However, the rest of the menu left me wanting on occasions. Despite being a German restaurant you'll also find a good Cider or Ale from time to time. Verdict; get the Schweinhaxe and enjoy!
M. N.
Excellent service, very good, quality food and huge portions they are serving. Nice and good beer, drinks. I spent a beautiful time in the pub.
S. D.
Good beer and plenty of food. The food might not be the best stsndard or totally authentic and the beer is not limited to German which would please some. Anyway, after 3 visits I would still visit again.
J. M.
Absolute little gem of a place. Very unassuming from the outside. Great food, great beers, great value. When I am down in Reading (at least 3x a year) this will be my regular haunt!
A. M.
Great food with excellent service will def be coming back soon!!!
S. B.
Tried this for the first time today. Had it delivered due to lockdown and it was amazing! Huge portions and the delivery guy was very friendly. Highly recommended, will order again.
E. S.
Excellent selection of draft and bottle beers (including banana beer! 😲). Good food and friendly service too.
A. H.
I really enjoyed the dishes and customer service, awesome location very close to my home. The workers are always friendly. Highly recommended.
g. v.
If you understand the nature of a bier keller, this is the place for you. Dark , out of the main strip. Set in concrete landscapes. Sit and drink large steins of bier and eat Wurst .No kids, no slot machines, 70s background music (no umpha band:-) ) great!
M.
Excellent beer, friendly service. Where else can you get a stein in town? 😁😍👍🏻
D. S.
Nice beers and friendly staff. Food looked good but I didn't have anything. Only downside was the dodgy looking area it is in but I'm sure it's fine.
F.
It was a nice place ..but they need more pic on the menu to help you make your decision..I was Lucky with my order...tasted delish...but it's a hit and miss unless you know the culture.
l. f.
I walk past it every day and had never been but now would definitely go again. Really nice beer selection.
M. D.
