Plattduetsche Park - Franklin Square

As we pass after a big snowfall, we decided to stop for a quick beer and some food in the beer hall! We had such a great time as ever! The food was super- as the hospitality! The bartenders were so inviting! We always love to stop it!

Debbie and all staff at the Plattdeutsche are incredible at what they do. From the moment we first met with Debbie we loved her and were confident booking our reception. She is extremely personable, communicative, detail oriented, honest (which I found so refreshing) and such a sweetheart. Debbie and I hit off off and even though I can be a crazy one she embraced it and was always patient with me and my nuttiness. We did not feel even remotely confident with our previous venue and with her it was instant. She was honest about what she thought was worth upcharges and what not and she was spot on with all her suggestions. She was beyond accommodating with my decor and details I wanted and she understood my vision. Our wedding like any other had hiccups but the Plattdeutsches consistent service outshined them by far. From the staff to the food everything was wonderful. I 've never been to a catering event here but it felt like I was with family they treat clients so well. I 've also never been for regular evenings so I have never experienced the classic 'little Bavarians ' which were DELECTABLE. The food at weddings I feel like is always a hard item but I can honestly say I tried multiple dishes and each was delicious. The amount of compliments were getting on the food is extensive. Our maitre D was such a kind and calming soul I knew my uptight self was in good hands. The servers and bartenders were wonderful, multiple family members told me they were consistently smiling and helpful. I can 't begin to express my thanks to Debbie and the staff for executing such a wonderful night that I know was a success because of them. My husband and I cannot wait to have future events here. Great place, extremely reasonable pricing, local and a such a warm family astmosphere you cannot go wrong with Plattdeutsche.

We stopped by to see the Christmas market. Lots of German foods and drinks. Beautiful blown glass ornaments, hand made pewter items and gorgeous carved wood pieces. Nice to see so much Christmas cheer and German traditions. Bavarian pretzels and Bratwurst. And the Gluhwein was perfect!

Was really debating between 2 or 3 stars. The place is nice but very hard to see the stage from most of the bier garden. Can get very loud because it is built like a cavern. The server was extremely nice but the food runners and busboys are very lost. Asked 3 different busboys for napkins. Never got them. Had to go find one to clear our table so we could have dessert. The food was so-so. Potato pancakes were tasty but very thin. The pretzel barely had any salt on it and the cheese dipping sauce was hard and cold. The wings were way too spicy for medium and the blue cheese came in sealed package. Was like blue cheese water. The burger was ok, nothing special but the fries were cold and stale. Beer was cold.. All in all, won't be going back.

Huge! Lots of help good service better food! Live bands that are good October fest looked fun People were having a great time Older crowd early, younger later Big menu No cavair
