"At Zum Stammtisch, servers in dirndls and Hokas deliver stein after frosty stein of beer in a pub-like room that doesn’t look like it’s been touched since the heavy wooden doors first opened. Stuck in an era of plaid upholstery and taxidermied animals, Zum Stammtisch is a wacky throwback. But it’s also one of the most fun places in the city to drink lager, eat a giant pretzel, and celebrate a birthday. Plus the thick bowls of goulash, snappy sausages, and schnitzel the size of a small dog shine, even without the generous pours of beer. Beer, goulash, giant pretzel, jagerschnitzel, chicken riesling, wurst platte, black forest sundae" - molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, will hartman, bryan kim, sonal shah
