This place is an interesting Inn offering many goodies of the Nürnberger/Nuremberg Cuisine and it’s easy to reach since the Burgwächter is located right in the center of Old Town Nuremberg on the way uphill the famous castle.
The staff is friendly and if the weather is pleasant you can sit outside in the patio, in an arbor surrounded and even roofed by green, where you can enjoy your meal as we did. We had two portions of the famous Nürnberger Rostbratwurst in a roll with mustard together with a local beer. This dish is delicious and super famous and one of the reasons Nuremberg is known for all over Germany, Austria and Switzerland and beyond.
Oh, and by the way just in case you don’t know it so far, if you are in Nuremberg or in other parts of Franconia don’t dare to remind the locals that they are politically a part of Bavaria, since you have to know that the Bavarians and the Franconians are the decendents of different tribes and so many of the Franconians still consider the Bavarians in the south as a sort of occupying power. Anyway, just keep history in mind and its still existing impact on today.
From Nuremberg with love! Dr. Dr....
Read moreTraditional German Restaurant in Nuremberg This charming restaurant is perfectly located next to the famous Nuremberg Castle, adding to its enchanting atmosphere. I tried the local dish Schäufele, a special pork cut cooked for three hours, tender like butter, and paired it with a slightly smoky dark beer. It’s easily one of the best meals I’ve had in Germany. The service was outstanding—friendly and attentive from start to finish. They even offered a beer tasting to help me choose the right one. The architecture is also worth noting, reflecting the traditional Nuremberg style, and there’s a terrace with a view of the castle and city. Though it was too windy and cold to sit outside, the indoor setting was cozy and inviting. Prices are fair, and the location is ideal if you’re visiting the castle and surrounding area. I would return to Nuremberg just to dine...
Read moreI chose this place for dinner during my short stay in Nürnberg, and I wasn't disappointed at all. It is located on a hill where you can get amazing views of the city if you choose to be seated outdoors. They offer menu in German as well as English if you scan the QR code. The waiters were all very friendly and took the effort to explain dishes whenever we had any questions. The menu is traditional German food from around the area, such as the small Nürnberger bratwurst, schnitzel, Spätzle, haxe and more. They have a variety of tasty beer (we tried 3 different kinds). They also serve typical desserts. The ambiance and lighting inside was spot on. The food came quick and it was very tasty, with decent quality and not pricey at all. I really enjoyed my dinner there, and I left with...
