Description

Rhein Haus Seattle is a German-style beer hall and restaurant in Seattle. The restaurant has a large dining area, a long bar, and mezzanines. [1] The interior features chandeliers and reclaimed wood paneling. As of 2018 the space features 20 televisions screens, a heated patio, and bocce courts. Thrillist says:

Once-dubbed Von Trapp's, Rhein Haus is a bustling bocce ball-themed, German-style biergarten [ sic ] in Squire Park. There are multiple bocce courts, a full menu of German favorites (think bratwursts, pretzels, schnitzels, and spätzle) and a large draft and bottled beer list featuring Eastern European and Pacific Northwestern beers and ciders. Grab your bier, give the bocce rules of play and code of conduct a quick once-over, and hit the courts until 2am, every day of the week. [2]

The menu has also included sausages such as cheddarwurst, kielbasa, and Nürnberger Rostbratwurst, as well as fried potato on a stick. [3] The restaurant has offered free pretzels to patrons wearing lederhosen or dirndl. [4] Rhein Haus Seattle is popular among students at nearby Seattle University, [5] and has "sibling" [6] restaurants in Denver (2015), [7] Tacoma (2017), [8] [9] [10] and Leavenworth. [11] [12]

History

Previously known as Von Trapp's, the business was renamed in 2014. [13] [14] In 2022, Rhein Haus Seattle joined the Mariners Bar League. [15] The LGBT-owned [16] business also hosted an LGBT pride celebration with singer Keri Hilson and drag performers Symone, Tatianna, Thorgy Thor, and Trinity K. Bonet. [17] [18]

Reception

Mark Van Streefkerk included the restaurant in Eater Seattle's 2022 list of "12 Seattle Bars with Fun Activities", noting the six bocce courts. [19]
