Date of visit: June 24, 2023 around 2 pm during a visit to Eltz Castle.
Once we arrived at Castle Eltz, we were very thirsty and hungry, because we had walked about 5 km from the station of Müden (Mosel) and the temperature was around 28 degrees. So decided to have a drink in the restaurant/bar area of the castle itself.
When we saw the prices, we had to swallow, a bit extortionate for what you get. See attached pictures. Still decided to have a drink, because it is very thirsty, please note that there is no drinkable tap water in the castle itself.
The view itself is quite nice, and you really feel like a king in your own castle. Hence the choice to give 4 stars, for the atmosphere alone.
Remark: almost have to fight to sit somewhere, since there are a lot of people and not many...

They only have outdoor sitting, so avoid going there on...

Wenn viele Besucher da sind, sind nun mal viele Besucher da. Ansonsten waren wir rundum zufrieden. Der Kuchen ist einsame Spitze und auf der Karte gibt es sogar was vegetarisches (bzw. ich glaube es war sogar vegan, da bin ich aber nicht mehr 100% sicher) und auch das war sehr sehr lecker. Uns hat man sehr freundlich bedient (scheint nicht bei allen Rezensienten der Fall gewesen zu sein, wie man liest). Ein Tisch war problemlos gefunden und die Atmosphäre dort war sehr schön. Wir würden es auf jeden Fall...
