“ Everything about our experience here was perfect. The food was excellent. The service was really good too. If I was in Nuremberg again I would definitely go back here. ”
“ Probably an institution in Nürnberg If you want great views of the castle and some of the best bratwurst sausages in the area. Just as good today as it was 30 years ago! Highly recommend. ”
“ Enjoy a cold beer and some traditional Frankonian dishes in the shadow of the medieval fortress of Nürenberg. If you have a sweet tooth give the Kaiserschmarrn a taste. It is said that the holy Roman emperor (Kaiser) enjoyed it vastly as well. ”
“ Authentic traditional German food. We had the Salad with Schnitzel, Sausage plate, watermelon salad and kids schnitzel, everything was so delicious!! Salads were very fresh. ”
“ We stopped here for a bite after a long day of exploring Nuremberg. We had pork shoulder, spinach dumplings and sausages, Everything was excellent! Beautiful outdoor seating. The wait staff wear fun lederhosen. Five stars! ”
“ Had a nice time here catching up with friends. More of quiet part of Nuremberg city Center but it was still popular at meal times. There was only outdoor seating left for us during dinner time in winter but it’s fine as the good company of good friends made it warm enough. There’s many popular german dishes. Must try of course the Nuremberg sausages. They have one option for many styles of these sausages- grilled, boiled etc, good way to try. Of course wash everything down with delectable German beer. My fave is Weiss bier. A bit more pricey for touristy area as compared to maybe like your neighborhood pub but it’s not overly priced. ”
“ Visited on a busy day, around midday, had to hunt for a table (finally sharing one with an Italian family) ... but I cannot fault the service quality and speed. Okay, the latter might have been helped by us ordering standard fare (the Fränkische Bratwurst is recommended), more exotic dishes seemed to take a bit longer. Very tasty meal, mid-sized portion (just right, as Goldilocks might say), and priced in the medium range. ”
