I ordered a product from The House of Glunz...they sent a confirm but then I did not hear from them for several weeks and did not receive the order. I finally got a response after 6 weeks and 3 email attempts explaining that a technology issue had prevented their emails from reaching me and that the product was on the way. In addition, they reversed the charge for the order. This all seemed very reasonable until the order arrived and was not what I had ordered. From the brief email exchange they seem like nice people trying to do the right thing and my guess is that the retail store is very nice, but if you are considering an online order maybe there is an option that is a little better organized.

This place is pretty awesome. The store itself has the most unique look and setup of any liquor store I have ever been in. The man working was super helpful, knowledgeable and suggested an awesome small batch whiskey that was in my price range. 10/10 would recommend.

Instant potatoes added not good very chalky, frozen meat loaf tasted like tv dinner. Everything cold. Out of beers not good service. Should of returned food. If something doesn't taste right dont eat it. Would not eat there. Have to press one star to send post

This authentic German dinner is a real treasure. It is nestled in Old Town and family owned /operated for many, many years. The portions are huge and every dish is great. Service was exceptional and everything was so fresh. I'm coming back very soon.

  • Michael Patak

Wonderful and authentic Bavarian experience. I felt like I was back in Europe. Amazing apps. Bleu cheese burger was out of this world. Mulled wine was the perfect Xmas Eve drink. Hidden gem.

An amazing hidden gem in the heart of Old Town. It's been there for over a century and I suspect will continue to be there in some way for another to come.
