    We manage to secure a spot during the Christmas fair weeek. Sevice and food was exceptional, few places in Köln where I've had delicious food with a traditional twist. Love it and will come again for sure. We were too hungry to take pictures beforehand.

    The pork knuckle in Cologne is truly exceptional, and the beer is also quite enjoyable. Additionally, the waiter provides excellent service and is proficient in English.

    Great service, amazing food, atmosphere really warm. We've had a lovely lunch here and should we end up in Köln again I will be absolutely coming back. Food was authentic, short wait, restaurant is really clean, all the staff we have spoken to have been delightful. Couldn't have had a better experience. Thank you

    Not the best, not the worst We had dinner here tonight. The local dishes on the menu looked appealing, and at first we were helped very kindly by the staff. Despite the busy evening, our food arrived fairly quickly. The flavor of my dish was decent, but the meat was quite dry and tough. My mother’s schnitzel also didn’t taste fresh. When we mentioned this, the staff handled it well and even offered us a complimentary dessert to share. However, when it came time to pay, we decided not to leave a tip because the food simply wasn’t good. The waiter reacted rather annoyed and somewhat offended, which didn’t feel appropriate. Perhaps we were just unlucky with our meals, as other dishes we saw looked fine. Still, the waiter’s behavior regarding the tip left a negative impression.

    Fresh off the train and bowled over by the main cathedral, which God managed to strategically place just outside the Hauptbahnhof, I unglazed my eyes long enough to ask two workmen where to eat. You know, the guys in the blue and fluorescent yellow jumpsuits, who could be anything from plumbers to electrical workers, but surely have been eating in Cologne since they were weaned. I was sent to Gilden im Zims, and then I asked about a typical lunchtime meal. Only the younger fellow was speaking English, but the older gentleman nodded in agreement when I was suggested bratwurst with beer sauce, and here it is. This is the 1/4 kg version, for only four euros more you can have double the bratwurst. Hard to imagine. Yes, the bratwurst is marvelous. But the beer sauce is sublime. And the potatoes… the potatoes are sautéed in some kind of animal fat with little bits of pork mixed in, maybe some onions… they are a meal in themselves. To redeem myself, I returned the next day and had the vegan lentil stew, also pictured here :-) I’ve added a small section of the menu which features vegetarian and vegan options, there are more available.
