beer. the theme is clearly german beer hall with a young bent. however, this does not feel like walking into a midwest beer hall with stale peanuts and animal beer on tap. in fact, feierabend out shines any place in leavenworth where good german brews and food is required. my wife and i have been to the "bend" several times. it seems we enjoy ourselves more when we go with others though. that does not speak to our compatibility, but rather the vibe of the "bend." ilovethe food although it can be heavy, but their daily special is normally creative and satisfying. blah,blah,blah.......the real reason anyone comes back is the great / incredible / supercalafragilistc beer on tap! there are places that have more selections like, brouwers, the tap house, etc, but this place is the whole package. solid beer, european sizes, proper glassware, great feel and rarely a long wait.
if you don'tlovegreat beer you will still enjoy this solid establishment. however, i believe that you really can't fully fall inlovewith the place without a good taste for beer. the restaurant goers are always pleasant and the staff are fun and welcoming. americans are not accustom to sitting next to strangers while eating and frankly, i know it is unsettling for my wife, but she always has a good time and most of the seating is not hall-ish.
this is family run and the whole place feels like a labor of love. from funky old pictures to the great bar! you feel the pride in their product and the depth of knowledge in what they present. as the weather shifts toward the color and chill of fall, this place finds its groove all the more. go and enjoy with friends!
