At first they told us that without a reservation they couldn't help us but as we tried to make a reservation for the following day, they set up a table and accommodated the eight of us. The menu is only in German and the waitress was very helpful in providing her recommendations, both vegetarian (which she is) and what people like if they're not vegetarian. I had the pizza with my selection of toppings and was very happy, especially paired with the large beer that is not Bitburger or Warsteiner, which are rampant in this town. After dinner they let us go upstairs and look around the museum. It's also a museum. We had a delightful experience and plan to be back soon. Note: They only take cash! So be prepared.
