While this is tempting is all I have to do is think of unreliable employees and nightmare customers and screw that comes to my head. I can make brats and German food as well or better than they did, so if I want something.......

But HEY for all those people out there who are pissed off that there aren't any/enough vegan/non-lactose/gluten free restaurants out there, here's your chance.

I'm not really, and have family and friends who suffer from various, but I've been subjected to less than kind "WHY DON'T YOU HAVE MORE THAN THREE (fill in the blank) ITEMS ON YOUR MENU?!?!?!! Ummmm......sorry, but I'm not a (fill in the blank) restaurant. Now if one would call ahead and say "Hey, we'd like to come to your restaurant tomorrow night and we were wondering if it would be possible to have a (fill in the blank) version of (pick a menu item), I'm more than accommodating, But don't go to Alexander's and be pissed they only have one fish option. :D :D :D :D

And here I thought they had already permanently closed.

Curious if anyone has anyone made the pilgrimage to Gibson City for Bayern Stube? Sounds like this would be the weekend for their wild game Hunter's Feast menu special.

My younger daughter and her husband lives in Gibson City, not too far from this place. But I don't think they've ever mentioned it, let alone dined there. Their favorite go to place is the Country Kettle, a local breakfast, lunch, dinner place.

Yes, yes, yes!!! It's been a few years. Think it is a bit more authentic than the Hofbrau (foodwise). Now I have an excuse for a road trip. If I'm not mistaken, though, it is for sale.

That settles it. Road trip for the seasonal Hunter's Feast.

My Gibson City daughter and son in law visited Sunday. They have eaten at the Bayern Stube restaurant a couple times, saying it's very good. But they haven't been back for about 2-3 years because of my daughter's IBS condition.

Surprised to see you back here after badmouthing us and the forum on that other forum.
