• German • Fort Greene
Fort Greene residents Ayana & Tobias Holler grew up in small towns in the rural Black Forest region of southwestern Germany, but their path never crossed there. It was much later, when they had both moved to Brooklyn, that they met, and fell in love. As a tribute to their love, to their Black Forest roots and their Brooklyn home, they opened Black Forest Brooklyn in December 2013 – an authentic German Indoor Biergarten and Kaffeehaus, serving regional German specialties and 14 classic German beers on tap.

    Took our adult kids out that live in Grand apt. We enjoyed our brunch, great cocktails and beer choices! Luckily we made last Day of “HOT & SPICY “ special menu. My husband was full for two days. Service was good & restaurant was on quiet side. Lots of families were celebrating different occasions in larger back room! Looking forward to warmer weather to dine outdoors in future. Always a good meal & nice time!

    This was the second time 'the system was down' so reservations made a week in advance didn't matter, however each time this has happened I lucked out and got a table for the number of people in my party. Maybe just stop taking reservations?
