The food is amazing, the Spaetzle is one of the tastiest I've tried, the Wurst platter, King Ludwig and the Biergaten Pretzel were so good!!
Portions are really generous!, and that sweet mustard that comes with the cheese curds is delicious.
Their German beer selection is great.

Definitely worth getting the pretzel there. The rest, not worth the prices. Everything needed extra salt. I had the item pictured and only the cream sauce tastes like something, the spaetzle had good texture but tasteless bits beyond the reach of the sauce. It could've used another spoonful of the sauce. The pork schnitzel was way past done and it was like chewing leather.
Our entire party agreed the place was overrated. The noise level, ok, it was Friday night in a college town, I get that, but there wasn't any sound dampening in the place and being in the basement the sound has nowhere to go so everyone just has to talk three levels louder than usual.
Service was average, several of us ran out of water and I had to ask for more.
Maybe get a pretzel to go if you're craving one but not sure I can recommend anything else.

This restaurant has great potential, but falls short due to the customer service, inaccurate online information, and inconsistent cuisine. We visited on two occasions: once for dinner and once for a beer and pretzel.
On the positive side, the selection of authentic German beer on tap is IMPRESSIVE and the DELICIOUS traditional pretzel was served HOT and with both German mustard AND tasty pretzel cheese. It was HUGE and covered in delicious salt crystals, similar to those I've had at Oktoberfest in Munich.
On the negative side, I was hoping to order the flight of German wheat beers advertised on the online menu and it was not available. Moreover, the bartender was unable to accommodate me because they are apparently very rigid with the inventory control, making it impossible to serve flights of beer that are not listed in the system. There are many ways of resolving this with a little ingenuity. I STRONGLY encourage you to at least allow customers to order what is listed online. Ideally, with such an incredible selection of quality beers on tap, customers should have the option of creating their own flight. My wife and daughter were also not impressed with the food or service when they had dinner.
Because of the aforementioned inconveniences, we decided against having my family birthday brunch there, though we did enjoy sharing a birthday pretzel to go. With a few simple improvements, this restaurant could provide a considerably better customer experience. I was so hoping to be impressed, as I have loved German food and beer ever since I lived in Bavaria.
Vegetarian options: The huge german pretzel is highly recommended!

Who doesn’t love a Germanfest pub? I tried a grapefruit beer on draft and it was incredibly good! And the Bavarian pretzel and cheese were hot and fresh. The atmosphere was cozy and the service was great. They were very knowledgeable about the different beers available on draft and they were quick with the drinks back to the table. This is a great place to meet with old chums from college yesteryear!

The best restaurant in Oxford Ohio by far! Their waitress, Gina, is the absolute best wait staff you will ever encounter!! Not only is she the best server but her attitude and personality are out of this world!! She makes each visit better than the last. The food is so delicious but honestly Gina sets the most positive tone for our family gatherings. She is a gem!

Great food and great staff! Alana was super sweet and attentive. Had dinner tonight. We had the cheese curds, pretzel, chicken sandwich, and drinks. Everything was fantastic! The chicken sandwich is HUGE! The cheese curds had a ton of flavor, and the mustard aioli was amazing! We loved the pretzel with bier cheese! Great German beer! We interacted with a few of the other other staff members, and they were all great! Definitely will be back!

Overall the experience was great and everyone I was with enjoyed their food. The jagrschnitzel I ordered was fried beautifully, but the sauce was a little light on flavor. Still overall a good experience

Our family of 10 received excellent service from Alexis. They were out of some of our beer requests, but substitutions were made and all was wonderful. The Sunday prime rib special was superb. Great value, terrific service and fun German atmosphere. Coming from Cleveland, Augusta GA, San Diego and Columbus our eclipse trip to Oxford was simply outstanding.
