Great atmosphere, great beer and good service. Unfortunately the food didn’t quite cut it. I was looking forward to trying the recommended perogies but was served luke warm perogies and had to send them back. The second batch looked like they replaced the one I bit into and nuked the rest (pic of one perogie not browned on top like the rest)…even though the server did assure me she threw them all out. My son did like the haddock and chips though. Recommend trying for the atmosphere and the beer.

Cool building and good beer, but the experience overall was pretty underwhelming.
We drove about 30 minutes expecting a lively German beer hall, but the place felt surprisingly quiet and flat. The atmosphere itself is great and has a lot of potential.
The beers were good and the fried chicken was excellent. The potato soup and cod with pierogies were also really good (once the soup order made it to the kitchen).
Service was okay but not very attentive even though the place wasn’t busy. The hostess barely smiled when we walked in.
My chicken paprikash had great sauce but barely any chicken — mostly a big pile of cold spaetzle.
Also worth noting: the Lent menu wasn’t available when we visited, and the water tasted very heavily chlorinated.
Overall it just didn’t feel worth the 30-minute drive. With the atmosphere they have, it seems like it could be a much more fun and lively place.

Large German restaurant, near Cleveland downtown. Inside has a similar look as a tent at Octoberfest in Germany.
Sometimes live band, good selection of beers including NA.
Large public parking available next block.
Food is good. Service ok

We stopped for a quick overnight stay to watch Hamilton and decided to give the restaurant a try and we are glad we did. We had a fantastic experience at Hofbräuhaus Cleveland! Our server, Lexie, was wonderful—very attentive and gave us excellent food recommendations. We especially loved the sauerkraut balls, goulash, and French fries. The beer on tap was top-notch as well. The atmosphere was so much fun, with international flags and live accordion music adding to the authentic vibe. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food, drinks, and a lively experience!

It always a good time at Hofbrahaus with the live music and fun atmosphere. If you’re looking for a quiet, intimate meal, this is NOT your restaurant. Portions of food are good and service is usually good even with a crowd.

We stopped by on a very hot day in July while wondering through the city of Cleveland. So happy that we made our way here. The server was incredibly nice and very helpful. The beer was outstanding. We both had the Pilsner and it hit the spot considering the heat of the day. The atmosphere of the restaurant was incredible. We cannot wait to return during our next visit.

The Hofbräuhaus is definitely a good place to party. You shouldn’t go there if you want to have a quiet conversation. As expected, the beer is excellent. The service is very friendly and fast. The food is varied and comparably authentic German. The musicians do their best. If you haven’t seen it before, it’s a must.
