Order the Giant Pretzel and you and several friends will have a snack worthy of a king. This two-pound beast covers the tray it’s served on, and is accompanied by barley malt butter, blackberry jam, and haus mustards.

You’ll love the atmosphere at The Radler, and you’ll want to play Radler-Schlagen - a German drinking game that involves competitors hammering nails into a huge tree stump. The last one with a nail still standing is the winner!
