This was the perfect, most comfortable bier garten we went to after traveling from Munich to Zeitz,…read moreGermany. Despite the Irish-inspired name, minimal English was spoken. To be honest, it added to the authenticity of Zeitz and its history; it truly felt like we were locals! The drink menu was very large with plenty of options for anyone's preference. I had some refreshing white wine (they literally filled it to the brim and I LOVED it) while my mother ordered a hefty sized cocktail and father ordered his beloved Guinness. My father and I ordered the same pork dish with a deliciously homemade tomato sauce drizzled over fresh sautéed vegetables (I told the servers in German I had a gluten allergy and they confirmed without the bread, this dish was GF). We loved it and it was a great, comforting meal that didn't leave us feeling heavy afterwards. My mother ordered goulash and ate it so quickly. We paid our bill at the bar near the entrance and the older woman who was helping us throughout the evening was so so nice. If you are in Zeitz and are craving a spot where you want to feel like a local, this is your place.

Arrived on a saturday afternoon to find most places closed for food, so we ended up at the…read moreRatskeller, seemingly the only place catering for people who want to eat after 2 pm. It was very quiet. No friendly greeting when we walked in so we just sat down. It took about 15 min for a waitress to appear at our table with menus (if we wouldn't have been stuck for a place we would have walked out). The beer we ordered arrived promptly as did the food. A smile wouldn't have went a miss though, we felt like intruders. The food itself was absolutely delicious, no complaints there. My partner had finished his meal when i was just about to finish mine the waitress appeared and whipped the plate from under my nosenot very good. We then requested the bill (would have liked to stay for another drink or two but didn't feel very welcome) which arrived quicker than the service was before. no friendly smile, no enquiries whether we enjoyed our meal, nothing really. So needless to say, we wont be going back there.
