If you need a venue for a birthday dinner then come here. They take reservations . Try and get the corner booth . Great food, great beer , great vibe all around ! Any sausage with duck fat fries !

Zahid Islam

Authentic German wurst and sausages . Every kind of sausage you can imagine from rabbit , kangaroo , pork , veal , etc. And yes the beer is amazing, though a bit pricy . The duck fat fried fries is a must!

Gabriel Seah

Duck fat fries fantastic. Animal fat gave superior flavour; big portion too. Thick cut & crispy enough (like British chips , but bite from duck fat made up for it). Garlic chive sauce was delicious.

Christine

Try the mini danger dog wrapped in bacon (only $4!) and duck fat fries with chive and garlic sauce . Perfect place for large groups with picnic style seating. They've even got kangaroo on the menu!

Gabriel Seah

There're more types of sausages here than you can shake a stick at. In the category of game alone you get exotic choices like venison , bison , wild boar , rabbit , kangaroo , elk & guinea hen.

Pat Weston

Sausage in a myriad different styles, seasonings and toppings. Duck fat , regular or currywurst fries w lots of dipping sauce choices. Kill your thirst 20 taps of rotating craft beers & ciders .

Stella Zee

Great if you love sausage . Went with a few friends and we were satisfied. They even have vegetarian options ! Kind of overpriced if you compare it to street meat though haha the kranjska is my fav.

Aleksandra Szumska

Bison sausage is really original and tasty. The whole place and food really reminds me of Berlin. Good work!

Big Dave K

Did you say sausage and beer ? Great selection of both. Fabulous duck fat fries too! A MUST go to place in Toronto.

Neel Hajare

Sausage sampler platter and side of duck fat fries (with the dill mayo sauce) was enough food for 2. Kangaroo sausage was interesting, but not a must-get. Wide beer selection with a few standout taps

Irena Pierova

Don’t care about duck fat fry, but all ordered sausages were really really good (l’m an eastern-europe-girl). Try your sausage in currywurst style: tomato curry sause gives very interesting kick to it

Hina

The ambiance is great, and the selection of meats is kind of extraordinary. However, it gets pretty busy on the weekends and they restrict entry if the place is full. Call ahead to ask how busy it is.

Aleksandra Szumska

Great bison wurst ! A variety of meat, bears and great ambience! It truly reminds me of Berlin.

Kevin Rickert

One of my favorite sausage places in North America. Interesting game sausages , venison , bison , kangaroo...Communal Tables, Nice Craft Beer Selection , Good Location.

yvonnnneeee

great ambience and amazing selection of beer . (if youre unsure which one to get you can ask for samples) the dirty duck fat fries are sinful and can fill up four people.

Jamie Sarner

No matter what else you order, go for the duck fa fries with it! Ranked 4 in Best TO restaurants for a quick bite : http://jamiesarner.com/toronto-life/2016/06/downtown-toronto-restaurants-quick-bite/

Josh Martin

Always great service here. Such great people behind the counter. I always get great food and beer recommendations. I tend to visit every trip to Toronto.

Salomon Z

Sit yourself then order at the cash. Order the large fries to share even the small fries would be good as portion are generous. As for the hot dog there's some interesting choices.

Lindsay

Monday night $5 Ontario craft beers ! The guinea fowl is my fave - the cheddar in it melts just a little and is perfect. Jalapeños are great toppings, but they're fresh, so pretty spicy !

Marianaa Worrall

Love the beer and the atmosphere. Options for sausages are great!! And beer is pretty amazing too. Good to go out with friends.

Meenah

Great ambiance with communal seating so you can mingle with other guests. Good selection of beers and sausages . Good for celebrating with a group

Baharinaaa

Too busy but aslo cool, fries are incredibly delicious! They have a large list of beers ❤️

Gabriel Seah

Wild Boar sausage : tea gave unusual flavour that worked. It wasn't too gamey either. It came with a bun which was a toasted mini baguette , not your normal hot dog bun .

Cristina

Love the community-style tables and atmosphere. Takes me back to Germany. the Elk with sauerkraut is amazing

Major Bailey

Holy crap! The best place ever! Makers Mark on tap ! Grant is the best! Thank you for making two Miami residents feel really great and happy. I will fly back for this!

Cristina

Ive been to Germany and this place is legit. Best currywurst in the city . Get the traditional bratwurst

Len

Huge selection of sausages including 4 veggie style which are fantastic curry wurst style get the double portion the best value because doubles are the best!

mahsa

I love it.. duck fat fries , bear selection, sausage selection... you should be experienced here to get a good combination😄😄

Kelvin Lee

This place is a gem. Great environment, amazing service and food! Duck fat fries are awesome, and so is the bison blueberry maple sausage .

Cameron Dearsley

Fantastic beer selection . Grab a Paulaner 🍺 and Octoberfest sausage — don't forget the duck fat fries . To die for.

Sarah Chiu

Got venison with sweet sautéed onions and jalapeños + duck fat fries . Added some Dijon to the sausage and it was delish! Definitely coming back to try them all :)

Chris Roberts

I got the Kaas on a bun . It was great but I tried the traditional (Oktoberfest w/ Currywvst) and it was better. Get the duck fat fries 🍟 dirty style!

Mazen Baradhy

Tons of sausage choices in a friendly atmosphere with communal tables . Get the duck fat fries with your Wurst .

Kiyote

Check out the duck fat fries . Very tasty!

Jessica

Their game sausages are definitely worth trying it, and get it on a regular toasted bun . The country bread in currywvrst is really small.

ᴡ Lagasca

Nice vegetarian selection with gluten free vegetarian options (all meat sausages are gluten free ), but no gluten free bun . :/ Duck fat fries mmm

Patricia Michalski

Duck fat fries are a must! And no, they don't taste like duck or resemble anything to do with duck . Just absolutely delicious, especially with the chive dip !

Justine Kilby

Love this place for awesome sausages and mugs of beer with friends. Great for large group reservations

Len

Be a man or a hearty woman and get a masse of beer . It's like drinking and going to the gym , just remember to switch drinking hands every so often.

Alex Palmer

Beautiful idea, wonderfully executed! Delicious food, great selection of beer , awesome ciders ! 😍😋

D Nice

vegan options R wonderful, juicy & have amazing toppings & very unique beers

Yuri Victor

The chorizo sausage with jalapeños will erase your childhood. Jesus will come down from heaven and wipe the sweat from your brow. Then your face melts off.

Kevin Rickert

WVRST gives us two important food groups. Beer & Sausage . If you want some fries , do that as well . Duck Fat . Yes.

Metro News

Just like any good sausage hall, it's crazy loud fun in here. Choose your style, choose your sausage , choose your booze and treat yourself. Golden crisp Duck Fat Fries are a must. Read more

Pat Ng

Duck fat fries were underwhelming - not as crispy as i expected although the wvrst sauce was delish. Bison sausage & beer selection were great - just not sure if they were worth the pretty hefty price

James Bell

Great sausages , interesting selection of beers including Bellwoods and Kensington, awesome fries . Boisterous crowd, great for a party!

Adam Nowek

Outstanding beer selection both on draught and by the bottle. A bit loud on the weekends.

Ryan Bannon

The service is slow, it's expensive , the beer pours are chintzy and I still can't get enough of the delicious sausages these crazy krauts keep concocting .

Annalie Killian

If you're South African, don't order the Boerewors-it's not authentic . But the beer and the vibe is fantastic!

Amy Whitney

Great selection of beer but the food isn't too great. Overcooked and over salted duck fat fries and super fatty hot dog .
