Very busy restaurant in a small mall in Swakopmund. Very good food. We were disappointed that customers were allowed to smoke inside the dining area, it spoiled somewhat the experience.

If you are local to Swakopmund, I'm sure this is a great place to go. We saw people come through the door, and their beer was waiting at the bar! For tourists (in a tourism locale) it probably takes a little longer to be taken seriously. By our second visit, the staff recognized us, and welcomed us as old friends.... More

I am a huge fan of German food so headed straight here. We were really happy with the food choices, pork shoulder with suburb pork crackle and authentic sauerkraut and the special of the day... Zebra! This was a great stop for us as tourists as we got to try some game meat but as well experience western standards and... More

The Brauhaus is a very popular place with good food. The service however does not live up to the standard of the food. The manager was on the rude and uncaring side of things. Customer service is not part of their vocabulary. Although very busy and a good atmosphere when full of people, the rudeness and rubbish service we received... More

..couldn't be better and huge portion, however the other food was only 'very good to good'. I would highly recommend the pork shank if you go there and enjoy a nice cold beer. Good atmosphere since it was crowded. reasonable bill. if you don't want to wait reserve a table.

I'm not sure whether this place is intended to be a restaurant or a spit and sawdust pub. For the individual who does not like a quiet meal, this certainly is not the place. Excessively loud and predominantly occupied by those of the liquid lunch fraternity it should be avoided by families with children. The service when we visited was... More

We are non-smokers and the establishment allows smoking where others eat. This put us off and we went elsewhere!

Nice atmosphere, real German venue. Love the beer, food was fast but not that nice, I went to Germany already 4 times so I’m used to German food that’s why I propyl criticize so much. Friendly barman but waiters not to friendly.

We stayed in Swakopmund during our tour of Namibia and the manager at the Beach Lodge highly recommended we go to the BrauHaus for dinner. We were not disappointed! Atmosphere, beer, food, service just perfect and exactly what you would find in any bierstube, brauhaus, pub in Germany. We started with chicken liver and goulash soup entrees....awesome, so tasty!!

We visited during the festive season. Excellent food. VERY busy. Make sure to book, or get there early. Nice to sit outside if you're not a smoker.
