Bierschenke
Brochure for
The 7th Annual Oktoberfest
14th of September to 29th of October
Every Wednesday to Saturday
and
Sundays 25th September and 2nd & 9th of October
Servus!
After six consecutive sell-outs, from 14th September to 29th October, Bierschenke will again
transport the unique atmosphere of the Munich Oktoberfest to the City of London. We shall be
celebrating Europe’s biggest festival from Wednesday to Saturday, each week, with the band playing
from 7pm Wednesday to Friday and from 8pm on Saturday.
By popular demand, we will also be open on three Sundays, the 25th of September and the 2nd and
9th of October from 2-10pm. The other Sundays we have set aside for private and corporate
functions, so if you would like to host an Oktoberfest event on any of the other Sundays, contact us
on [email protected] or call 0207 100 2500 and speak to Lena or Annabel.
Authenticity is at the heart of the Bierschenke, so if you want to really experience the Oktoberfest,
you don’t have to travel to Munich; you can enjoy the real thing at London’s only authentic, Munich
Beer Hall. Staff in traditional Lederhosen and Dirndl, serving real Bavarian beer and traditional meat
and sausages from our butcher in Bavaria, is central to delivering this experience. And in the true
spirit of Oktoberfest, throughout this year’s festival, we will be offering our unique Festbier, to
complement our existing broad range of bottled and draught Bavarian beers and ensure that your
Bierschenke Oktoberfest experience is authentic and truly unforgettable!
Respect for tradition and the cultural importance of good food and drink is the Bavarian way - and it
is the Bierschenke way.
Come in and see for yourself.

you as to your options.
We do not recommend pre-poured beer, as this is best ordered
when your guests arrive.

and these can be set up in your area. There is more information
