Authentic German beer garden with communal tables & imported brews























"Lined with communal tables, Dupont’s Bavarian beer hall is known for its solid selection of German brews (16 on tap at all times), two-pound pretzels, and people watching. On warm days the retractable glass roof comes down, allowing beer-lovers to soak in the sunshine." - Tierney Plumb

"I know Sauf Haus Bier Hall as the reliable Dupont destination for rooftop brats, steins, and soccer fans; the same team behind that spot is now venturing into the underground speakeasy world with STFU." - Tierney Plumb

"Crowded happy hours may be on temporary hold, but the multi-floor Sauf Haus is still open in Dupont Circle (with a little more elbow room). The Erdinger Weissbier is a great German hefeweizen beer to chill out with. Table reservations are available by email, and contactless food pickup is organized through Public Bar Live next door." - Travis Mitchell

"On the DC Whiskey Walk, Sauf Haus is one of the stops and will pour Bushmills Black Bush for attendees." - Eater Staff

"Over in Dupont Circle, Sauf Haus promises multiple floors of flowing beer and Oktoberfest vibes. Thursday, September 26, features live accordion music. The following Saturday’s highlights beer specials with a ’90s cover band closing the evening. Head to the rooftop to enjoy the fall weather." - Travis Mitchell
