Heidelberg

The last of Yorkville's German restaurants, still pouring beer in boot-shaped glasses.

Second Avenue in the 80s was German for most of the twentieth century. Almost all of it is gone. Heidelberg is what is left: schnitzel, wurst, a waitress in a dirndl and beer served in a glass boot that gets passed round the table.

It could easily have turned into a theme. It has stayed a restaurant.

What to know

Go with a group. The boot is not a one-person exercise.

Going? Tell them MUSEENYC sent you. It's not a discount and there's nothing to redeem — we just want them to know where you heard it.
