Shady trees??
Why does Erlangen lack shady trees? We have lots of trees in the Zentrum and around. But the ones that can truly protect from this heat are only a handful of them. 🥵

What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors appreciate the Röthelheimpark district for its expansive, shady beer gardens and pleasant atmosphere, making it a great spot for group gatherings. However, the food quality receives mixed reviews, with some finding it disappointing, though the service can be accommodating. The park's winter illuminations are also a notable highlight.
"Nice for outdoor seating/self-service in the beer garden. The food is disappointing, unfortunately.
The potato salad tastes of nothing, and my schnitzel was extremely thin and heavily fried. It was almost impossible to cut. My other friends weren't impressed with the food either. But it's a good meeting place for larger groups. It's best to try the salad or the baked feta cheese.
The service inside is very mixed."

"Beautiful beer garden with hot dishes and typical cold platters. A small sandpit, but it was already quite old when we were last there. Plenty of shady spots, tall, mature trees. Parking is difficult. It's best to arrive by bike if possible."
Sabine Schneider
"A very nice beer garden with large trees, in a quiet location. The selection of food and drinks is very extensive. We've always been satisfied. On our last visit, our food was delayed for a long time, seemingly forgotten. We were compensated with a free drink...not everyone does that! It can happen! We've found a top-notch place, whether inside or outside!"
