In front of the hut that lies 'to the rear of no.

55 Petersham Road' there are enough tables and benches to seat 200.

The idea is that Stein's is open until 22.00, with lunch served between noon and 15.00; breakfast, dinner, or just coffee and cake all fit into the day as relevant.

This place has a restaurant licence so you can only drink alcohol when you order food and then it is limited to beer and wine.

The two main draught beers are Paulaner Helles (the golden lager-style one) and Erdinger Weissbier (the cloudy wheat beer one) and are very good.

The 'Bavarian specialities' on the menu revolve around sausages and very good they are, too.

The Nuernberger wurst are small and well-spiced cousins to our own chipolatas.

The Thuringer bratwurst is a larger, meaty, porkier number.

The Muenchner weisswurst is a white veal sausage that is boiled rather than grilled - it's the traditional accompaniment to wheat beer at breakfast time.

Sausages come with decent sauerkraut and mash, or really stunning pretzels in the case of the weisswurst.

And some are teamed with bratkartoffeln, which translates as chunky sauté potatoes with attitude.

Stein's is an eccentric, jolly sort of place to eat and seems to get the thumbs-up from the students at the nearby London German School in Petersham.
