What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners praise the cozy, rustic atmosphere and friendly service, often highlighting hearty German classics. While some find the food comforting and well-prepared, a few reviews mention dishes not meeting expectations or being overpriced for the quality. Long wait times can also be an issue during peak hours.
"The atmosphere is amazing, the lighting, decorations, the seating areas are nicely spaced and cozy. Friendly kind staff. The burger tasted fine and didn't live up to the high price. The other dish was tasty. The prices are very steep tho. Location in the centre is a plus"

"We dropped in on a rainy day and gave the potato soup and the house specialty, Deftiger Kutscherschmaus, a try. The soup was great—warm, flavorful, and just what you’d want on a gloomy afternoon. Unfortunately, the Kutscherschmaus didn’t quite hit the mark. It was heavy and felt more like a random mix of ingredients than a well-composed dish. Overall, a mixed experience—nice for a quick warm-up, but not something I’d go out of my way for again"
Doubler Bite
"Food was fine, nothing to get real excited about but you won't leave hungry. Our starter came with "toast" and I was looking forward to a hearty, rustic bread and got cafeteria white bread-rather disappointing. The dish was delicious but needed more and better quality bread. Salmon was good. I would try other places before coming here again."
