My favourite neighbourhood beer hall is back. WURST in Mission has officially re-opened and I couldn’t be more excited. With a fabulous new pub style menu available on both floors keeping you satiated and more casual vibe to the whole place, I can’t wait to return here on Saturday nights with our friends for beers.

While they don’t want to dwell and neither do I, it was so hard to see the images of this place flooded last summer. Absolutely heartbreaking but they’ve come back up on top and I am more than elated. I am so glad that the folks behind WURST were able to salvage so many of the amazing elements that made this German-style joint so unique.

The upstairs concept has been changed from the more formal dining experience to something a bit more comfortable and easy-going. Though I will miss the epic seafood platter and Prosecco that I indulged in with my pal Meghan in days past, I definitely can understand why they are going in this new direction. The downstairs brew hall has changed ever so slightly. You will noticed that the booths have been raised and are bright and roomy. The incredible long plank, solid wall brew hall tables are still in tact, however they had to be shaved down a few inches due to the damage that floating around in water had created. They still look amazing and now they have a great story to go with them.

Beyond aesthetic changes they’ve also added a catchy new tagline to the name; you may now call them WURST Uberkitchen + Wunderbar. Sounds like the kinda place you want to hang out at, right? Anyways, they are now open and they want you back in the wurst way. So get down there and order up a Hefeweizen and a BIG pretzel and get to it.
