Harry's Hofbrau, just north of Woodside Rd. (Hwy. 84) on El Camino in Redwood City, is open until 11 on weekdays, 12 on Friday and Saturday. Fast service at that time (it's a cafeteria line), some surprisingly good food (I'm particularly fond of their roast turkey), and good beers on tap.

I used to live near that particular Harry's HB, and sometimes went there when not feeling too good, and felt a lot better afterwards because I did.

I've gotten ill everytime I've eaten there.  I know other people who also have gotten ill after eating there.

Otherwise, it's great.

That is ridiculous!  I and some of my friends meet there every so often when one of us has a turkey leg craving (or the Friday night "dinasoar bones" craving).  Never has anyone gotten sick..full, yes but sick? NEVER!
