==History and Description==
Biergarten opened on October 1, 1982 with the rest of EPCOT Center <ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/biergarten/ </ref>. The restaurant was designed by Imagineers to give guests the feeling that they were in a 16th century town in Rothenburg. The interior of the restaurant is themed to look as if guests are dining outside, as a perpetual Oktoberfest celebration roars on. Richard Bear's book ''Walt Disney's Epcot Center''' describes Biergarten as:

{{Quotation|Three stories high, with tables placed around a tiered semi-circle, the indoor garden miraculously conveys the feeling of an outdoor courtyard. In one corner is a tree, in another a full-sized, functioning waterwheel. <br>

On the opposite side of the garden is a meticulous re-creation of the best of sixteenth-century Rothenburg, complete with its residences. In the center of the town square is a stage where live entertainers, including that inevitable and beloved oompah band, dance and sing and make German music.<br>

Served with the best German beers are such traditional tidbits as bratwurst, sauerkraut, potato dumplings, hot pretzels, sauerbraten, smoked pork in aspic, sausage…everything that is Teutonic and tasty.}}
