rathskeller

On busy nights in later years, the atmosphere could be like that of a college rathskeller in a state with a low drinking age.

Music and laughter and the sweet smell of German beer poured from the rathskeller in the building’s basement.

The estate ultimately consisted of sixteen structures, including an aviary, and fifty-five baroquely furnished rooms, among them a rathskeller.

As a freshman at Georgetown University in 1948, Richard McCooey walked the nearby streets and dreamed that someday he would run a student rathskeller and restaurant within easy reach of the campus.

The man who presently was brought out of the barred ante-room and taken before the prosecutor might have been anything from a floor-walker of a big department store to a manager of a renowned rathskeller.
