We stumbled on this place by chance while looking for another restaurant. I liked the look of it from the outside so we decided we’d go in and have a soup or something and a beer just to tide us over until we got to the other place we were looking for.
Having tasted both soups on offer (cabbage soup and potato soup) and a beer and seen the menu there was no need to go anywhere else : we had found what we were looking for - delicious authentic German food.
The menu had a great range to choose from and there were any number of specials on the chalkboards that covered both the internal and external walls.
If I say that all that went back to the kitchen from our plates was the bone from the pig’s foot I had it’ll tell you all you need to know about the food. Another indicator might be that we went back to eat there on the following two days and on each occasion we cleared our plates, and the portions are not small.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful and the place seems to always have a good number of locals, which is a good sign. The chef sometimes makes an appearance to chat and ask if everything is okay.
Having sampled several different starters, mains, desserts and beverages and not tasted anything that wasn’t great I feel I can heartily recommend this place.
Sample starters: Potato soup (with wurstchen), Cabbage soup, Minced black pudding.
Sample mains : Roast pig’s foot, Medallions of venison, Roast wild boar, Pickled fish
Sample dessert : Apple strudel (surprise!)
