The oldest still-operating tavern in Buffalo, this downtown drinking establishment located outside Allentown got its start in 1868. Offering traditional German good cheer, food, service and beer, the tavern is popular with regulars and out-of-towners. The menu includes many German-American favorites such as potato pancakes, wiener schnitzel, and German sausage platters. The tavern operates a restaurant and a bar, with separate hours for each.
