Who remembers the Hoffbrauhaus

Recommended Posts

Yes, I remember that place in the mid seventies, the dancing on tables and the beer in steins. There was one before that the Bier Kellar, ,did that become Crazy Daizy, or am I confused here?

 

There were two. The Hofbräuhaus behind the Moor, (forgotten the name of the road or gate) and the Lowenbrau which was on High Street and was previously Crazy Daisy or became Crazy Daisy

The 80's band "Big Country" played there in April 1983, when it was called Dingwalls, I was backstage with them having a few beers and we were talking about the death of Pete Farndon, the original bass player of The Pretenders, who had died the day before (he was mates with Big Country), so it was definitely Dingwalls at that point, as I said earlier, I think it had stopped being a beer keller in 1982 at least

You are 100% right, would have closed 1982 or very early 1983

they sound fun, pity they dont have em any more

 

There`s a Bier Keller opened on West Street. I personally would never go in there again. It's very expensive as well as being crap!! Not a patch on the Hoffbrauhaus.

Hi just joined today! Looking for old friends but not sure I'll find any. Well saw your post. As soon as I saw it it made me laugh. Me and my friend used to go there and had some right laughs. I could hardly hold the big glass of lager . We also used to dance on the tables , a nice trip down memory lane , thanks I needed a laugh. I see there a few who went there I remember it well. :)
