Waldmann continues the tradition of “Wurst und Bier” first celebrated by its namesake, Anton Waldmann, beginning in 1857 within these very walls. Our menu is crafted with pride and with natural, local ingredients: “natural” because that was sensible then and still is now; “local” because that was and is the most sustainable answer. Our wurst is made locally using our own recipes by artisans dedicated to their craft.

A COMMITMENT TO HISTORY, QUALITY, AND COMMUNITY…
Waldmann is a small, local establishment emphasizing a deep care for history, quality, and community. We work tirelessly to offer humble, yet inventive fare, friendly service, a sense of belonging, and of course, excellent beer. We do this work because we care. We choose to do it here because we feel a deep kinship with the generations who came before us whose struggles and sacrifices have made this unique and special place possible.
All aspects of your experience at Waldmann are made possible through the labors of a highly diverse and devoted community. We hold their safety, as well as compassion, welcome, and grace, to be central to our mission. We welcome you to share in it and pass it on. We sincerely thank you for buying local and supporting our dedicated and hardworking staff.
