What Margarete is saying about this Meetup Group

Fun group! There is a good mix now of native and non-native speakers. We have quite a few representatives from all parts of Germany--north, south and in-between--as well as different parts of the world including Mongolia! There is plenty of privacy upstairs at Ryan Pub and it is quiet--they have now cranked the music DOWN. Food is pretty good pub fare and not expensive. The club sandwiches and fried shrimp platter with Chinese Spring rolls and dumplings are particularly good. Nice variety of beers.
