Dakota Inn Rathskeller

FYI - this week Jazz Night will be downstairs in the Rathskeller or possibly outside in the garten, weather permitting. A traditional Oktoberfest band will be in the main dining room entertaining a large dinner party. Still plenty of room for walk-ins looking to enjoy dinner. As always, no cover for Jazz night. Prost!

Incredible start to Oktoberfest last night. We estimate over 500 people were in attendance. Beautiful weather today as we welcome fan favorite ALPINE THUNDER to the main stage. No reservation needed. $5 cover.

The fest we've all been waiting for has finally arrived. Join us this Friday Sept 25th as we officially kickoff Oktoberfest at the Dakota Inn. Ceremonial Proclamation & Tapping of the Keg at 7pm followed by Live Music inside the dining room and outside under the tent. Oktoberfest runs Friday 9/25 through Saturday 10/24. We're open every week Wednesday through Saturday with special events most Sundays. Live music every night (full band / $5 cover every Friday & Saturday). Dinner reservations are pretty much full but walk-ins are welcome and no reservations are needed for Biergarten or downstairs Rathskeller. Here's to another great fest at the Inn! Prost!!!
