Der Biergarten ist übersichtlich...aber dafür in keinem optisch guten Zustand. Tische und Bänke sind stark beansprucht ....und von der blauen Farbe sind an manchen Garnituren nur noch Reste. Beim umsehen innen....ein ähnliches Bild.Die schwarz lackierten Stühle und Bänke haben schon ziemliche Gebrauchsspuren. Bei naturbelassenem Holz in braun würde das vermutlich nicht so stark auffallen....aber bei schwarz sticht das schon ins Auge. Unsere bestellten Essen kamen zeitnah.Vom Gemüsecurry über Schnitzel und Schäuferla gegrillter Haxen war alles vertreten.Die gegrillte Haxe und das Schulterstück hatten wohl die gleiche,etwas dünne Soße. Grundsätzlich was das Essen in Ordnung....portionsgröße normal...aber alles in allem war es nur Standart....Nichts besonderes. Der Feinschliff ...und das Auge für Details fehlt.Und der Biergarten direkt vorm Eingang ist nunmal auch ein Aushängeschild....was aber einer überarbeitet bedarf.

This was the show stopper for me. The meat was "fall off the bone" tender and the pork rind was crispy delicious. Don't like beer? Try one anyway. I tried a lemon beer that was surprisingly refreshing. I have got to squeeze in another trip to eat here before I leave the area.

Perhaps it's…read morelocated in a little out of the way village, so you really have to know your way around this countryside to get here with ease. Food was very good and hearty which Franconian foods tend to be. Service was also good. The beer was excellent. Actually we came here twice on the same day. Once to enjoy our lunch before our hike, and again after our short hike due to the inclement weather. We had cappuccino and dessert which was excellent--like a cheese cake, but it was made of some local fresh cheese. If you're in the area, this is an excellent restaurant and brewery to visit. Highly recommended.

The hotel, bed, location was great but our service and experience was awful. We thought we had a…read moregreat time up until check-out. I always write notes in Hotels.com to say we have 2 dogs. At check-in they failed to look at the notes until he saw them later. The room was away from the hotel down the street and only had street parking on the main strip which was not a problem at all. We did not mind walking to and from our room as we always walk the dogs at 7am and then before we leave anywhere. The bathroom was large with a long hallway and tile so we kept the dogs inside this room with their beds and water only. They slept while we were away at dinner, daily. We were there for 2 nights only and we left them unattended for only 4 hrs total and walked them before bed time. At check-out, they tried to charge us an extra 200€ for damages. We had already paid 100€ as a fee. The maid said that they shat all over the beds, the bedroom floors, etc.. The maid was not conveniently there to ask of her but her other manager conveyed the message. We told them that our dogs do not release in the rooms, and it was not at all possible because they were in the bathroom. They looked away and the other manager looked at the manager that relayed the complaint and she just left the room. She clearly lied and was trying to get more money from the Americans. Her manager came and we asked them to walk with us to the room to show them and let them smell it. They left a vacuum in our room and we even cleaned up any hair left behind. He refused to go to the room. He refunded us the charges and apologized. We asked if there was another dog in that area and they said yes. They mentioned only one dog did it. I said we had Two dogs so they clearly confused us with the other guest with a dog. It was an ok experience up until the very end. Due to that experience, we will never stay here again. We have never had any issues with our dogs. I do not recommend this place for that reason.

It's another one of those typical Franconian/Bavarian biergarten/brewery. This has been operating since early 1700's. It has a very nice view looking down on the city. You can spend a very relaxing afternoon in the shade of trees enjoying typical Franconian cooking. The menu may not be as extensive as other locations, but it's very satisfying. As a common experience around Bavaria, you may have to share a table since it's a very popular place and very crowded especially on the weekend during warm weather months. Also, as usual cash only.
