The 5th annual festival will feature authentic grub, grog and live German music in the 80’x30’ Oktoberfest tent located in the railroad parking lot directly west of the restaurant.

Commemorative cups ($5 each) will be on-hand to use throughout the day and attendees from years past are encouraged to bring their signature Glenview Haus cups with them, free of charge.
The Food
Chef Jeff Modica will be serving up festive Bavarian food specialties from Brats ($5), Giant Pretzels ($9) and German Plates ($9) loaded with a brat, German potato salad and sauerkraut. New this year, Menchie’s Frozen Yogurt will be on-site for a cool treat available all day.
