Brigit & Bernard’s Garden Cafe is keeping Oktoberfest going this weekend with Friday and Saturday evening celebrations at 335 Ho‘ohana Street in Kahului.

The all-you-can-eat buffet is $85 per person, plus tax and gratuity, with drinks and dessert extra; reservations are a good idea by phone or OpenTable. If you’re craving schnitzel, beer, and a little Bavarian-style fun on Maui, this is an easy one to add to the weekend list. Learn more at Brigit & Bernard’s Garden Cafe.
