Discover the Prostgarten – A Hidden Treasure of Downtown Mt. Angel! 🍻
Tucked away at the charming corner of Garfield and College Streets, the Prostgarten is one of Mount Angel’s best-kept secrets. Nestled just behind the Glockenspiel and a row of bustling food booths, this cozy venue offers a relaxing escape from the festival crowds.
Inside, you’ll be greeted by the warm sounds of acoustic accordion music, creating the perfect ambiance for easy conversation over a cold drink and good company. It’s the ideal spot to unwind, connect, and soak in the spirit of Oktoberfest — one accordion note at a time.
At the Prostgarten, you’ll find a curated selection of Oregon’s best craft beers, poured by passionate local brewers who self-distribute their unique creations. These exceptional beers are often only available in their hometowns — making the Prostgarten a rare treat for true craft beer lovers.

Pair your favorite craft beer or a glass of wine with delicious food from any of the outside booths, then kick back and relax in this welcoming spot. The Prostgarten offers free admission and serves as a beloved local gathering place where friends and family come together.
