This place is in a mall. That being said, it is to be expected that there are a lot of people in there that probably are just in there because it’s in the mall and they are waiting to get their nails done or whatever. However, if you can get a seat in there I recommend the bar the service seemed to be way better. Huge fold-out pamphlet that listed over a hundred specialty German beers as well as several on tap. Had to get the pretzels and mustard and it was better than I expected. There is a bunch of German fare for purchase in an adjoining shop, including cheeses, meats, and beer to take home. Overall good experience, and one more reason to visit my grandparents in Tampa.

Great little German pub. the food is really good and the atmosphere is really cool. the beers on tap are some of the best and they have a good variety of bottles beers also. decent prices and the staff is great. always busy and just has a happy feel to it. i just wish it was a little bigger. id like to see it become a full restraunt out of the mall. id love to work there too.

Took a while to find, and at first seems a strange place to have a German Rest/bar. But as we got close, the German music was playing, and I realized this was a great little place. Good selection of beer, and the food was good. I also like the way you can purchase food and beer to go, almost like a gift shop. It’s a long drive for me, but well worth the visit.

Pretty much the only reason left to go to University Mall. Great draft selection, running the gamut from Belgian to German and tons more. Friendly staff, awesome food. Really great German fare if you are into that stuff like I am. Pretty good selection of bottles and glassware, especially considering everything they pack into this small space. Worth going out of your way to visit.

27beers on draft 30 in the bottle, and an old beer engine cask pump. German and American food . tampabay beers, their homebrew club meets 1st tuesday of the month, they won best beerclub in the state from the bfbc. they also sell beerbrew kits, and even cigars. this a unique place you have to visit when in tampa. Dunderbaks is near usf so you get alot of college students, but the crowd is mixed and the food , well there is something for everyone!

Mr. Dunderbaks is one of the lone surviving establishments of the University Square Mall by USF. You walk in and immediately feel as if you’re walking into a beer/deli in Germany. The qiener schnitzel and ruebens are darn good. They have a great selection of bottled German, Dutch, and Belgian beers as well as 15-20 on tap. They also have seasonal beers on tap and a great Oktoberfest celebration every year. Highly recommended... and where else can you get a beer in the mall while your wife is at the makeup counter?

Great authentic German food and a reputable beer selection make this one of the best little draft stops up on that end of town. Also, on the first Tuesday of every month, Tampa Bay Beers, a home brewers association meets and cuts loose…. That’s always fun!

So I’m walking through the mall and I see a Paulaner sign and go what the? then see the sign saying 12 beers on draught and it boggled my mind. Theres actually a german bar in the middle of a mall, crazy idea. It’s too pricey and will get a beer or two every now and then since it’s my local mall, and we’re there a lot getting mice for our lizard.

If your into German food and beer you have to try it at least once. It does not look like much and it’s small but it has a certain European charm that is fun. Also a great place to meet up with home brewers.

About 10-16 beers on draft. Mostly German, but did have Chimay White last time I was there. The German draft selection is very nice with several styles represented at once. Had a Maibock, Schwarz, Bock some Lagers, Pils and Wheat beers when I was there. Staff is VERY friendly. Especially Meagan. Food is outstanding. The Deli is decent, but I suggest the authentic German fare...try the cheese spatzle...awesome. They also have a large package selection that runs the gambit of beers availible in Florida and sell glassware, german goods and gifts. I still do my X-mas shopping at University Mall JUST because I can stop in here to take a break. One of my all time favorite places in Tampa to have a beer. Had St. Bernardus Abt 12 AND Val-Dieu on tap the other day. That just rocks.
