Oktoberfest

Join us for a taste tour around Oktoberfest, one of the world’s great festivals of food and drink. 

Oktoberfest is world-famous for its supersized steins, and we’ve got amazing recipes that go beautifully with the very best beer. Roasted potato skins with horseradish cream is a sensational starter, and for some delicious dishes from Deutschland, try sliced steaks with sauerbraten, onion hash browns and spiced red cabbage, traditional braised bockwurst and warm vegetable hard cider ‘kraut with German style potatoes, or the legendary wiener schnitzel. And if there’s room, a Bavarian apple torte, or classic German fruit pancakes with a mixed berry syrup are perfect puds.

Celebrate Oktoberfest in scrumptious style!

Delicious German-inspired Recipes for Oktoberfest

Celebrate Oktoberfest
From scrummy sides to mouthwatering mains and divine desserts, celebrate Oktoberfest at home with our incredible German-inspired dishes. A roasted venison loin with braised red cabbage, sweet German potato noodles and juniper berry sauce is as traditional as it gets, and talking of tradition, how about homemade soft pretzels, a special spaetzle, German style oven chips, or bratwursts with sweet-and-sour cabbage. The wurst Reuben burgers with a German fried potato salad are firm family favourites, and for sugar and spice and all things nice, try a lemon Bundt cake with a berry rhubarb glaze, or seriously good cinnamon stars called zimtsterne.
