Brauhaus Schmitz,
Established 2009.
BRAUHAUS WORLD CUP MODE: ACTIVATED. From NOW until June 11th… we prepare. Mentally.Physically.Emotionally. Because once this thing starts… Brauhaus becomes your official World Cup headquarters. Every match. Every day.No excuses. We’ll be OPEN for every kick off (earliest match kicks off at noon) and taking it ALL the way through those beautifully chaotic midnight matches. We’re talking: noon games that turn into “just one more liter” … late afternoon matches that absolutely ruin your productivity … midnight showdowns where things get… unhinged AND for those of you who like a little fresh air with your chaos… there may be a few outdoor Biergarten watch parties sprinkled in Flags flying.Chants echoing.Tables shaking.Strangers becoming best friends by the second half. Your schedule? Gone. Your voice? Temporary. Your liver? Brave. June 11th… it all begins. And when that first whistle blows, there is only one place to be: Brauhaus Schmitz. Your World Cup headquarters. WHO’LL BE LOSING THEIR MIND WITH US?!
Since opening in 2009, Brauhaus has quickly become one of the most authentic German Bierhalls and Restaurants in the United States. With 34 German beers on draft and over 50 in bottle, we are proud to offer more German beer than anyone else outside of Deutschland! Through our close personal relationships with brewery friends, we’ve been able to help bring countless new beers to the city of Philadelphia (and the country) for the first time ever. We guarantee you will never find the assortment of German beers that you can find here!
Since 2009, Brauhaus Schmitz has revived the city’s love affair with its German heritage and reintroduced a whole generation of Philadelphians to the foods of their forefathers. This Teutonic kitchen churns out excellent Haus-Made Sausages, Savory Schnitzels, and the Best Schweinhaxe outside Munich. To complement the much-lauded food at Brauhaus, Owner Doug Hager continues to grow its outstanding beer list. By cultivating a close relationship with brewers during his frequent visits to Germany, Brauhaus can present the World’s Largest German beer selection with 34 rotating draft lines, all imported from the Vaterland! In addition to the amazing draft beer selection, you will find another 100 mostly German Flaschenbier (Bottles) and a well-rounded wine and spirits selection!
Be sure to check out their selection of German Schnaps! Prost!!

We are not from Philadelphia but everyone made us feel welcome! The food is authentic…delicious, even for kids. The servers are kind and attentive. We came for a World Cup match and it was crowded but we were seated quickly. Aiynger Celebrator beer is 💯. Get the bratwurst with sauerkraut.Posted on Google Catherine SwankTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love this place and have gone many times. Amazing food and beer! Tonight I sat up top for the first time and literally fell through an unfixed 1 foot deep hole in their floor while walking back to my seat from the bathroom. A grate was covering it (that seemed secure) and there wasn’t much space to walk elsewhere. I ended up skinning/bruising my arm and leg pretty badly as a result. I hope this issue is fixed ASAP so nobody else gets hurt!Posted on Google Chad WagnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Loved this place for watching world cup games!
