Reviews for Schnell's Brauhaus in Palatine, IL
Schnell's Brauhaus is a nice German restaurant that offers a nice selection of beers and German food. The restaurant is smaller... but there was still plenty of seating when we went. The schnitzel was probably some of the best I have had in a long time withthe seasoning. The meal was delicious. Read more
Small busy place with delicious food, great German beer and friendly service.
What?s not to love about this place! Schnell?s Brauhaus is an authentic family owned German pub and restaurant in downtown... Palatine. There is ample parking around the pub and seating both inside and outside. They feature a large selection of Germanbeers on tap as well as wines. All food is made in house and they have German specialties like beef rouladen, schnitzel in beef,chicken or pork, sauerbraten and their in-house made sausages. The inside is typical German hand carved wooden bar, seating andmotif. It looks like a lodge you would see in Düsseldorf, Germany. The food was very nicely prepared and was delicious!Everything from the potato pancakes, the sauerkraut, schnitzels and strudel. We tried the veal and chicken schnitzels and bothhad very generous portions with very flavorful sides. We really loved the red cabbage as it was sweet, a little sour and reallycomplimented our meals perfectly. We really liked that they took a healthy approach by using oil instead of lard to prepare allof the items! The hot apple strudel desert was made with real hand peeled chunky apples and was absolutely delicious. If itwasn?t so busy I probably would have asked if they could sell me a strudel to take home! Tyler our waiter was super friendly,very attentive and made sure we had a fun dining experience. As it?s Oktoberfest season during the time we went and very busy, Inoticed the small staff worked hard as a team like a machine to help each other with whatever was needed! The whole staff wentabove and beyond to make sure you had a good time. We sure will be returning to try more of the other items. Schnell?s is Germandining and drinking at its very best! Don?t forget to order the apple strudel! This place doesn?t disappoint! Read more
The staff MADE the experience. Our bartender/server was so great, we almost wanted him to join us at the table. I highly... recommend the sausage plate. I'm not sure what it was called on the menu, but it's an entree and comes with 4 differentsausages. Absolutely delicious! Read more
This place is stunning and such a cool vibe. The drinks are strong and the food is delicious! Do not skip out on appetizers,... they were amazing. Read more
Came here as a spur of the moment decision and it didn't disappoint! We had two beers and were pretty good! The food was also... delicious and warm. I liked the beer cheese that goes with the pretzel but didn't really care for the Thai sauce. Just not mypreference but otherwise we enjoyed our experience and food! Read more
Friendly atmosphere, excellent staff, exceptional food! The German beer options are plentiful in both tap options and bottles.... Warsteiner was delicious, cold, and available in 1/2 liter srein, 1 liter stein, and 2 liter boot. The sauerbraten was sodelicious. The oso buco pork shank is huge, tender, and tasty. You have to try the sauerkraut balls! For those who areadventurous with their drinking, a shotski is available. We tested it out with some whiskey and it worked well. Only thingmissing was some traditional Kirsh or Himbeer for the shotski. We will be back and already have several friends ready to joinus. UPDATE... I went back a week later and tried the pork schnitzel. It appears they are masters at consistent, awesome food andexcellent, friendly service. You have to check this place out. Read more
