Schnitzel and Giant Steins of Hefeweizen Return as Hofbräuhaus Reopens Its Bavarian Beer Hall

The 20,000-square-foot Bavarian beer hall Hofbräuhaus Las Vegas closed in March 2020 when the state mandated that nonessential business temporarily close to slow the spread of COVID-19. Now 440 days later, the ode to German beer and food officially reopens with its steins of German beers, a massive restaurant serving schnitzel and wurst, and room for 1,000 diners under 24-foot ceilings.

The 17-year-old Hofbräuhaus is known for its Oktoberfest celebrations, keg tappings, and currywurst and pork shank that kept the very busy destination buzzing since early 2004. The venue has long been a favorite of large corporate and group events.

Located at the corner of Paradise Road and Harmon Avenue across from the just opened Virgin Hotels, the restaurant features a replica of the original Hofbräuhaus am Platzl beer hall in Munich, Germany.

Hofbräuhaus plans to be open with temporary hours from 4 to 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Sunday. MC Johann performs live Friday and Saturday from 6 to 11 p.m., and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m.
