We did not have a reservation but because we were early, they found a place for us before the reservation folks arrived. They even offered us menus in English, and could not have been nicer' Hands down the best German/Swabian food we have ever had....not to mention amazing service. We had the Schätteres Dreierloi with potato salad, the meat plate, and speatzle. Truly amazing...and very affordable. Recommend reservations, and make sure to take Euros or Ecard.

In Germany, particularly in Bavaria, stricter COVID-19 Prevention Health Measures Ordinance went in effect in early November 2020. The immediate affect was the closing down of all non-essential businesses including restaurants, retail stores, etc. I still remember how disappointed I was by this since it happened just as I arrived in Germany. Today we actually had a sit-down meal for the first time! Yay, things are finally getting closer to the new normal in Bavaria! There were several restaurants and cafés set up with outdoor seating on this visit. It wasn't a particularly warm day, and there was a little breeze to make it feel chilly. We chose Gasthaus zur Sonne because it was a little set back from the busy street. Just as our drink order was served, they turned overhead heaters and made it more comfortable for us. Service was very pleasant...maître de/cashier lady was very cheerful (perhaps almost over the top), and took our food and drink order right away as we were seated. Young female server was somewhat quiet perhaps keeping balance with gregarious older lady, yet very pleasant and courteous. Our food was very good. It wasn't anything fancy...just bratwurst and salads (beneath the pile of lettuce, there were assortment of typical Franconian pickled vegetables which we really like). Sauerkraut was very good, too. It was altogether a very enjoyable meal. They have both German and English menus.

The outdoor dining area looked like one of the best in town with great lighting, flowers, and lots of tables - would have been a prime spot for people watching and enjoying the nice weather. The interior was smaller, but seemed to have multiple rooms (we sat in the front one). Our server was extremely friendly and helpful, especially since there seemed to be a small discrepancy between the English and German menus provided. I ordered a seasonal special with chanterelle mushrooms, a cream sauce, and bread dumpling. It was very rich without being overly filling. Portions were fairly large and typical compared to most places in Germany. The rest of my family enjoyed their meals, wine and beer, although I can't recall what anyone else ordered - I was too focused on my own dish! I'd definitely eat here again if I make it back to Dinkelsbühl.
