The Duke of Sussex celebrated his birthday in a German restaurant with his team on Thursday evening, drinking “really good” local beer and blowing out candles on a white chocolate birthday cake.
The group went to the Schumacher Brewery, famed for its Schumacher Alt - a well known local beer that is being served at the Games.
They shared “family style” dishes including bratwurst, wiener schnitzel, red cabbage and mashed potato, to experience the meal in traditional German style.
One source said: “Everyone was incredibly friendly, especially the waiters.”
After dinner, they headed back to their hotel to sing happy birthday to Prince Harry and tuck into the birthday cake just before midnight.
The group opted to celebrate on Thursday evening because they expect to be at the Invictus Games watching the sports and the medal ceremonies late into Friday.
Ungermann said: “Harry and Meghan sat next to each other during the meal. I had goosebumps when they walked in. I had watched his speech on the stage at the Invictus Games and couldn’t believe he was in my restaurant. Prince Harry was so lovely and gave me a hug.”

She said Harry picked up the bill and left a big tip.
The team includes four members of staff from Archewell, two British PRs who used to work for the Sussexes in London, and their protection team.
