"The official alternative to Radegast, Spritzenhaus is a little less popular because a) it’s slightly further from Manhattan and b) the setup isn’t as quaint and beer-garden-y. But the important thing is that less popular means less crowded. Get a beer and some snacks and sit by the fireplace. And if there are people who like you, bring them too. There’s plenty of room." - bryan kim, matt tervooren
