We’re going to arrange a little get-together for the attendees (locals and out-of-towners) of the Regensburg Expat Meeting Weekend on the evening of June 20th. Here are a few suggestions for venues:
Bar & Café Schierstadt

This is a nice place with good beer and indoor or outdoor seating. It’s never been overly loud, so it’s conducive to conversation.
A big, beautiful Biergarten with ample seating and Dom view. Kind of hard to miss as it’s in the middle of the bridge. Good Bavarian food, too, if you come hungry.
Tapas

Sorry, no link for this one. A nice, enclosed Biergarten on the Altstadt-side of the bridge. Spanish cuisine – in case you didn’t get that from the name.
Anyone who is interested in coming, please give me a heads-up and your preferred venue in the comments. All venues have an indoor option if the weather is not cooperative. After I get enough responses, we’ll settle on a place and time and I’ll e-mail my handy number to the attendees. Because it’s a Friday, I suggest we get started around 8. I know the baseball games go until later, but I don’t want to get shut out by a huge weekend bar crowd. If you want to stay for the later games, let me know and I’ll give out my handy so you can meet up with the group if we end up moving to another bar.
Hope to see you there!
Keep us in the loop! Were are into it.
and, I vote for Alte Linde (I have a soft spot for it – wedding reception and last German world cup victor)
Note — you can see who’s planning on doing what over the whole weekend over at http://www.triphub.com/trip/105139.aspx
Cliff/Sarah,
I got the link to your page from Christina’s expat invite. I’d love to meet up with you guys….Alte Linde looks good to me.
@Tammy: I figured you would go for Alte Linde, if only for sentimental reasons.
@Monet: Sorry it took so long to approve your comment. Our spam filter was getting a little overzealous. That’s two for Alte Linde so far!
I’m free the 20th.
And Schierstadt is my favorite quiet bar.
Both Schierstadt and Alte Linde are too far from my flat for me to attend :-)
Sounds fun, but I will be out of town for a bachelor party (…my bachelor party, AHH!!! that’s close..)
Maybe too far for you to attend AFTER the bachelor party!
Viel Spaß!
Hi,
I am looking forward to meet you (whoever you are), I am a local so to speak, born in Regensburg but lived in LA WAY too long. Both Schierstadt and Linde would be perfect, 5 min. walking distance from my place beacause I would bring my little one (and just stay for one beer and a quick hello), so hope this pans out…..
How can anyone stay in LA way too long??? I am still looking for a way back!
We like Regensburg. We like beer. We like expats. We’ll be there.
Hey Cliff,
have you decided on a place and time?

Ooops! Sorry, the cross-posting between Christina’s blog and this one and the TripHub thing just got to be too much for those with limited attention spans (i.e., me):
Alte Linde
20:00
Reservations outside under ‘Sarah’
See you there!
Will there be another big meet up anytime soon perhaps? I Would love to meet some new people and other expats here :-)
Hi Charlene,
I don’t know how big it will be, but there will be another meetup in Nürnberg in September. We’re just coming out of a very busy season and will be concentrating on meetup planning soon. Details will be forthcoming.
