One of the highlights of OktOBERfest is the food! During this month-long celebration, along with daily shows, our Seasons of Ober Restaurant switches to their OktOBERfest menu. Most of the food is German inspired and is derived from recipes and cuisine from traditional Bavarian festivals. Offerings include, but are not limited to, schnitzel, bratwurst, strudel, salted pretzels, and sauerkraut.
