As the name suggests, the place is an old ruin, dating back to the 12th century, which gives the…read moreplace a unique atmosphere. It's possible to climb up the stairs of the old tower to an unrivalled view that - weather permitting - reaches from Weinheim's old town centre to the hills of the Pfälzer Wald. A long, long time ago I went there regularly with my dad - no wonder the place is filled with nostalgia for me. However, times have changed, and in case of the Windeck, definitely for the better. Since Rolf Pflästerer has taken over (now a few good years) it's more than a great place to end a Sunday stroll or a longer hike through the forests of the Odenwald by sitting in the shades of some large chestnut trees and sipping on a cool beer. The outside area is a beergarden that can rival the best. The cellar is a restaurant with a delicious, occasionally daring, menu. A tented area is perfect for weddings and other parties. It takes about 20 minutes to to take the direct yet rather steep path from the Gerberbachviertel up to the old ruin. A slightly longer and gentler way starts at the bottom of the crossing between "Grundelbachstraße" and "Dürrestraße". Or alternatively, you can take the car up the Wachenberg ("Am Schloßberg") and turn right into "Neuer Burgweg" once you passed the built-up area. Behind the ruin lies an adequately sized parking area.

Very nice building with great comfortable lobby. we had a…read morehugh team dinner here where we had a great time chatting and enjoyed the food. as I was still in jet lag zone, didn't try the entrees but Salmon looked pretty good and others who ate them all liked dish. - Goat cheese was pretty great with bread - Breuschette was on a nicely baked pizza dough with fresh cut tomatos on the top. I have added goat cheese to make it perfect. - Veal with tuna sauce was pretty interesting as well. Seafood soup was decent but definitely not the best I have tried so far. again, the bread was great with soup. Services were great. Possible to go back to try Salmon or Pizza dough.

In town for two days so I tried this spot after a recommendation. The beer is the same as anywhere,…read moregood. The food was good as well. I haves the veal schnitzel and a potato/mushroom salad that was good. The only negative was the service. It was a little slow and from sit down to checkout I only spoke to him 3 times. He was busy though I will give him that but I was at the place across the street when it was packed and had great service and great food.

Very, very good restaurant on the Marktplatz where the quality of the food is always consistent. In…read more7 aears I have not been disappointed with the food. Super salads, pasta, meat and fish dishes. I often order the Auberginen Cordon-Bleu salad or the salmon. Good place to go to watch the people on the Marktplatz. If you want to sit outside when the weather is nice you have to wait for a free table as reservaitons are only taken for indoor seating. Also good for a first date and business lunches.

Holy cow, definitely the best veal schnitzel I had while visiting Germany and I was there for two…read moreweeks and didn't stop eating. My husband also agreed. Definitely the best veal schnitzel. OK, now that I have gotten that news out front I have to tell you about the great evening that we had while visiting this restaurant. I love that there is lots of different spaces for you to eat and enjoy drinks. I ordered a flight of beers and I have to say that the dark beer was probably my favorite. It was very very smooth. The Hefeweizen was great, pilsner had a little bit of a bitter finish, and the other option that was in the basket to me was terrible. But different taste and different strokes for different folks. Patrick was the star of the show other than my incredible veal. You would not know he was from the US because his German was on point. He was so kind and genuinely interested in speaking to us. He was very busy, but he made us feel so welcome and took great care of our needs. We speak a little bit of German, but it was great to have someone give us a little more insight on the restaurant, beers, and food. Thank you so much, Patrick! I wish we could have made a return visit, we should have come to this place at the beginning of our trip and circled back. A little bonus info the burger was also delicious. My husband ordered it and it was almost like a juicy meatball. Really thick, delicious tasting ground beef. If you're in the mood for a burger this definitely hits the spot, but my schnitzel was incredible. did I mention my veal schnitzel was incredible ??? Best meal. I had the entire trip. Hands-down, I hope to return someday!

We wemt there for lunch. We ordered two Radler beers, schnitzel with beer sauce, kids schnitzel,…read moreand a cheese burger. The service was excellent and on time, they always asked us if we needed anything. The restaurant was clean. The beers were excellent. The Spätzel was out of the box with dried crusted onions, not freshly cooked onions. The schnitzel was a little undercooked, but ok. Since the food was a liilte off, I took off one star. Other than the food , everything ever was great.
