Jim and Jerry Chandler opened the first Sportsman's Grille restaurant in 1985 with ten items on the menu. They wanted to recreate a northern hunting lodge atmosphere with fresh, hand-packed burgers, chili, catfish and cold beer.Since 1955 the Gerst Haus has been a Nashville favorite, providing the best in german food in an authentic beer hall atmosphere. Our menu includes a variety of German and American food. Our signature dishes include our fresh wiener schnitzel, bratwurst, and corned beef and cabbage. We feature giant frozen Fishbowls of our own Gerst Amber beer, as well as 26 draughts and a large selection of imported beers. Our goal is to provide good food, good drink, and good service. We pride ourselves on a fun and authentic German atmosphere, and have a live Polka band every Friday and Saturday night
