Welcome to The Waldschänke!

We are so pleased to be able to have our taproom and patio open for you all to enjoy! We do, however, have a few protocols we’d like to ask you to review in order for us to keep you, those around you, and our staff as safe and healthy as possible:
- We DO NOT take reservations and operate on a first come, first serve basis. If you have a large party, we advise that you call ahead of time to confirm that we will be able to accommodate you.
- We have MERV 13 filters installed in our air system, which filter out all viruses- including COVID-19. Every time you hear our taproom A/C kick on, you know that the air is being filtered. Additionally, we have three certified UV air filters running at all times in the three sections of the taproom.
- Please check-in at the lower bar inside before taking a seat so that we can confirm that a table has been cleaned and is ready for you to enjoy. You may also check-in here for to-go order pickups!
- Wearing a mask is encouraged. If you get up to order at the bar or use the restroom, we ask that you please consider putting a mask on. While it is no longer required, some of our staff is still not fully vaccinated and we would truly appreciate you taking the initiative to keep them safe & healthy! If you do not have a mask, we can provide one for you.
- We are transitioning to bar service! When you are ready to place an order or close out your tab, you may do so at the bar.
- We have sun sails to provide shade during sunny days, as well as a few fireplaces and hot coffee drinks to keep you warm while sitting out in our Cidergarten during the cooler evening hours.
- If all of our tables are occupied, both indoor and out, we ask that you wait patiently while our other guests finish up, or consider ciders/coffees to-go. Each table and its chairs are wiped down with sanitizer/bleach after each use.
- Any tabs left open after closing will be closed out and will have a 20% gratuity added. We accept APPLE PAY, GOOGLE PAY, and have TAP TO PAY options, along with our touchless transaction app: Arryved (DOWNLOADABLE in your phone's App Store for both Android or Apple devices).
- FOOD: We have our own food truck- The EuroWagen! See our menu by clicking the "Food Truck" item in the main menu at the top of our site or by clicking the "View Our Food Menu" button on this page. You are also welcome to bring your own food or order delivery from any of your other favorite local restaurants. Food will be ordered and paid for separately at the food truck.
- DOGS: Well-behaved and leashed doggos are welcome in the Cidergarten only. We unfortunately cannot welcome pups inside our taproom.
We are doing our best to implement the safest practices we can. Staff will be thoroughly washing hands; and our restrooms will be fully sanitized as often as possible during our busy times. We appreciate your support, understanding, and patience as we all adapt to new developments during the COVID-19 pandemic. If we work together, we will all be able to have a good time!
PROST!
