National Pretzel Day

Overview

You can't go wrong with a pretzel. Cover it in salt, stuff it with butter, flavour it with cheese — whichever you choose, it's always delicious. There's a reason that there's a day dedicated to the German snack, after all (and no, it's not just because there's a day for everything these days, or so it seems).

April 26 is National Pretzel Day, which is just the excuse you need to eat more pretzels, more often. Of course Munich Brauhaus, The Bavarian and the Bavarian Beerhaus are all getting in on the occasion at their venues in Bowen Hills, South Bank, Chermside and Eagle Street. In fact, they're celebrating the date in the tastiest possible fashion.

If you're a dessert pretzel kind of person — specifically, a soft, chewy, fresh-from-the-oven doughnut pretzel type — you can stop by anytime on the Friday and nab one for $1, which also includes a dulce de leche dipping sauce. And if you're an original pretzel fiend, you'll score a free one with any 500ml or one-litre stein of beer you buy.
