Bucks Food Calendar: Sept 18, 2017

Oktoberfest, the annual celebration of Germany, is well underway, kicking off last week on September 16.

I love restaurants and bars during Oktoberfest. Bratwurst with sauerkraut, pretzel rolls, beer braised meats, schnitzel, dumplings — how can you resist? Then there are the beers, big pint glasses foaming to the brim, which go well with a hot pretzel with mustard.

Now that you’re hungry, keep reading for some Bucks County Oktoberfest happenings, along with some other local dinners and events. Enjoy! 

Community dinner

Community dinners and lunches. There are plenty of free dinners and lunches offered this week in Bucks County and nearby. It’s a great chance to meet your fellow community members and have a simple yet comforting meal. Here’s what you can enjoy this week:

Newportville Inn beer

Oktoberfest in your backyard. Newportville Inn‘s Oktoberfest celebration began this past Saturday, and if you missed it, there’s no need to worry. The celebration continues through October 21 every day at the inn from 3 – 11 pm.

It’s the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the sights, sounds and smells of Germany. The food is prepared from scratch, the beers are brewed according to German purity laws, and the Inn has an old world feel to it. The inn hopes to see you soon for “good food, good drinks and good friends.”
