Leipzig Bayer Bf, German restaurant and brewery at Bayrischer Platz, Leipzig, Germany.
Leipzig Bayerischer Bahnhof is a restaurant and working brewery set inside a 19th-century terminus building in Leipzig, Germany. It has several dining rooms, including a column hall, a Schalander room, and a Gosestube, spread across the old station's interior.
The station opened in 1842 and was one of the first terminal stations built in Germany. After rail operations ended, the building was gradually turned into a dining establishment while keeping much of its original structure.
The Bayerischer Bahnhof brews Gose, a traditional Leipzig beer with a slightly sour taste, on-site using copper kettles that are visible from the dining area. Ordering a Gose here means drinking something made just a few steps away, in a city where this style nearly disappeared before being revived.
The entrance is on Bayerische Strasse and the whole space is wheelchair accessible, with no steps between the main areas. Weekends tend to draw more visitors, so arriving earlier in the day or booking in advance is a good idea.
Inside the column hall, there is an original railway carriage where guests can sit and eat as if aboard a train. The carriage is a real piece of rolling stock, not a replica, left in place when the station changed its purpose.
