German Club

I’m a regular at the German Club when it comes to Oktoberfest celebrations. Having been to Germany late last year, I am impressed that certain parts of the venue have been decked out similarly to what you find over there.

Farewell drinks, company paid lunches and boozy nights are the most common ones. The decor is modern with warehouse style influences, and the service…
