Gröninger Privatbrauerei

Good beers. Good environment and good food. People are nice and friendly. Service was great. If you have a group of people and want to have a good time, this is the place to go.

I'm dying to go back here. My family and I went here last year on vacation and ate at this place. OMG! We can't stop talking about the food, the service the ambience and the history of the building. We wanted traditional German food. Boy did we get it. We ordered a huge platter served on board it over fed my family of 4. I believe historically it has always been a brewery. Beautiful copper vats in a basement. You almost feel like you have gone back in time. You can have your beer served via a keg at tableside if you wish. The food was amazing and we ate until we couldn't eat any more. The beer was outstanding (I am not normally a beer drinker and I had two beers) The waitress was super friendly and helped us decide what to order. Reasonably priced. Even my youngest who was 13 can't wait to go back!
Just an FYI it is a cultural thing in this country to tip the bathroom attendant.

I wish I could give this place a better review, we had high hopes when we arrived but they slowly gotten eaten away. We were greeted at the door and asked if we had a reservation. We did not which shouldn't have been a problem mid week at 1700 with an empty place. After conferring with the group of servers standing around doing nothing they decided we could occupy on of the many empty tables. The waitress took a while to make it over to us but we ordered a round of drinks and looked over the menu, as we were trying to figure out what we wanted I spotted a nice mouse run away from the food area. The little guy had no problem running through the place. So needless to say we finished our drinks and left.
The place was cool being in the basement and looked like a cave, the beer was pretty good but its a shame that everything else wasn't good at all

We visited in the evening and it was pretty dead. The actual space is very cool - dimly lit with the feeling of walking around a cave almost. We enjoyed the beer. The pretzel was nothing special though along with the other food we had. Our waitress was helpful but didn't check on us too often, and we waited a while for our check. I'd go back and try different food if I'm in town again.

Went here with a humongous group while on a work
trip and absolutely loved the experience. We indulged in shared platters with several types of sausage, crispy pork belly, potatoes and sauerkraut that was about €16 per person and were extremely happy with our choice ... that was until the waiters passed by with a full roasted pig with beautifully crackled skin! It turns out this has to be ordered a week in advance. We were terribly jealous. We all also feel a twinge of regret for not ordering the 10-liter beer barrel which you could then have on tap on the table. Given the opportunity, I would plan another big outing to this place and order both the whole roasted pig and the beer barrel (no matter what size my party lol). Service was good. They didn't balk at our party of about 20 wanting to pay separately by card. To be nicer to the servers, I would recommend coming with cash if you have a large party.

Great inside and it's good to support a traditional brewery but on visiting on a Monday evening the staff were so over worked and looking unhappy. The food looked good but didn't try any on this occasion. Lots of space and yard is like inside so if you can't find a seat just keep looking around.

A colleague brought us here before for dinner and a few drinks last year, and I haven't stopped talking about it since so it's only fair that we returned to it when we arrived in Hamburg. It strikes me as a traditional bierhalle (but that may be stereotypes throwing me) with it's long tables and benches. They bring barrells of beer to the table for your party to enjoy, and offer both buffet food, and table service for some things. The pork knuckle is absolutely stunning. Quick tip though - do not order a full size one unless you are extremely hungry because it is massive!

Great food, great beer, interesting decor, and fairly priced. I very much look forward to my next trip here!

Very nice atmosphere. I am not pilsener fan, but here it was good. Also, you can get any meat you want, to make a perfect composition with your beer. This time potato was not very warm, and service was a bit slow. So I recommend ordering a beer at the table, and then grab some food by yourself- it will be faster.

Came here last night with a large group and had a great time!

Love the feel of this place as it looks like a cave basement but as you go further in, you see a buffet of meats, and pots where they are brewing their own beers then rows of tables.

Since we were a large group, the most efficient way to drink beer was to by the barrel! Once you purchase the barrel, they set it up at one end of the table. Whoever is sitting next to the barrel ends up refilling everyone's drinks so be sure you have someone who is ok with that and be sure to have an efficient pourer :)

Once we got the beer settled, onto food! For our group, some of us went for the buffet option while about 6 of us went in on a meat platter. Everything on the menu looks great so you really can't go wrong with any option. The meat platter that we went in on was about 17 euros per person. There was plenty of food for everyone so don't worry on a shortage of meat for anyone! We still had food on the table but suddenly the wait staff came around with more complimentary food so again, don't worry this place will make sure you are well fed!

Seems like a really great place to hang out over a barrel of beer with some friends. The food is authentic and fantastic!

I'll be sure to come back to try the orange beer and to sample more items from their menu!

This is a hidden Jem in Hamburg. Bier was fantastic, food was up to Par! Must stop and enjoy!!!!!
