We may be some way away from Oktoberfest, but Pergola Paddington will be starting off the festivities a little earlier. From mid-September, they're transforming into Wunderbar - an alfresco Bavarian-style beer hall.
What does this mean in practice? First up, there will be a lot of beer. They're teaming up with Camden Town Brewery to create an exclusive Oktoberfest Lager - that will only be available at the Wunderbar. German beers, including Spaten and Lowenbrau, will be available too - and plenty of Schnapps.
On the food side, they'll have a pop-up called "Wursthaus" which will, of course, have a Bavarian lean. On that menu will be plenty of dishes to line your stomach including:
- Knödel, poached and fried potato dumplings served with a beer butter dip
- Bratwurst baguette, a grilled German bratwurst sausage, toasted baguette, caramelised onions, sauerkraut, mustard, chopped pickles and dill
- Hot Smoked Salmon Flammkuchen to share, a 9” German mountain pizza with crème fraîche, caramelised onions, gruyère cheese and flaked hot smoked salmon
- Stollen Bites, warm German marzipan cake bites served with a custard dip
- Apple Berliner Donuts, five hot apple-filled doughnuts with cinnamon sugar.
So if you're in the mood for Oktoberfest this year - definitely keep this place in mind.
