Birthday at Biergarten?

[Parkerpooh]

Just wondering if anyone has experienced a birthday at Biergarten? Do they do anything special? It's my mother's 49th birthday while we are there. My dh, fil and teenage brother will only do buffets!(piggies!) Any info would be great!

My family and I ended up there on my birthday almost two years ago for an early dinner. I am a big US Soccer fan and it was the day that the US lost to Germany in the quarterfinals of the World Cup. I was a bit incensed (spelling?) to be there in the Germany pavilion but the food and the atmosphere (and a giant mug of Beck's beer) quickly changed my mind. I think what they do for your birthday depends on what your spouse and/or family want to spend. My wife arranged for me to be recognized by the "oopmah" band playing and I stood up and was acknowledged by the other diners. A cake was brought to my table and I blew out the candles and several of the servers came around the table to sing happy birthday. It was prety fun for a guy who usually dislikes that sort of thing. I had a good time- the Becks didn't hurt the experience.

Marksor, thanks for the response. I'm glad to hear that it's a fun place for a birthday as my mother is pretty wild and loves to be the centre of attention! Although when i called and made my ps the cm said that you couldn't get a cake there, maybe they've changed that since you were there. Oh, well I'm sure she'll love it regardless because after all she is at Disney!!!

We ate there a few weeks ago on my daughters 4th birthday. For older kids they took them behind the food line and they decorated their own birthday cakes. For adults and younger kids they were bringing out birthday cakes. We didn't mention my daughters birthday to our waitress because she was in a mood and ready to leave as soon as we sat down, but at the end when it was mentioned, she said, if she had known she would have brought her a birthday cake....so....I do think they will bring out a cake if it is mentioned.
