Restaurant Oberkrainer am Hauptmarkt — Restaurant in Nuremberg

I want to share my unpleasant experience in this restaurant. After they seated us at a table, we had to get and look at the menus ourselves, even though there were no more than 7-8 occupied tables in the restaurant, which were already served. There were two waiters, the younger one came first, but after we were not ready with the order, the older one with a mustache came next. I ordered two beers, the largest number of sausages and we wanted rosschi, but he put his hand on the menu and said he didn't have any. He offered us fries and we agreed. I repeated the order to him at the end and he nodded and said yes, ok. The sausages and beer came quickly, most likely they were baked in advance, because it didn't look like they were freshly baked. Other customers came with whom we ordered together and they were already finishing their dinner when I told the waiters that I had forgotten fries that were gone. The waiter with the mustache, first said that we didn't order, which was a lie, and then asked if we wanted fries that would come in three minutes. I said no. Then he started apologizing, which was the right thing to do at the very beginning, not to lie. Finally, when I asked for the bill, he wanted to give us drinks, which we also refused. BE VERY CAREFUL in this restaurant, if they lie about such a small thing, imagine what happens in even more...

Oberkrainer Restaurant is located in a truly fantastic spot – right on the main square, with a beautiful view of the famous Frauenkirche church, which adds a special charm to the entire experience. During our two-day stay in Nuremberg, we had the chance to enjoy their amazing food more than once.

We tried several different dishes, and each one was a culinary delight. The Wiener Schnitzel was absolutely phenomenal – perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, just as it should be. However, my personal favorite was the Schoffel meat, a fantastic homemade specialty – rich in flavor and perfectly prepared. The Schweinebraten was also an excellent choice, served with deliciously prepared potatoes and cabbage that complemented the dish perfectly.

The staff deserves special praise for their kindness and professionalism. Mr. Paolo and the entire team create a warm and welcoming atmosphere – it truly feels like home.

The restaurant’s ambiance is charming, cozy, and authentic – a perfect blend of tradition and comfort. This is definitely a place I will return to on my next visit to Nuremberg. Highly...

I was looking for a place to eat traditional Nürnberg Bratwurst. There were a couple of places I was looking at. I also looked at one at the foot of the Burcht. It was a very picturesque setting. But when I saw the portion I was not convinced. The Oberkrainer am Hauptmarkt maybe didn't look very charming from the outside but it looked the best based on value for money.

When I got up the stairs to the restaurant itself I was happily surprised by the cosy interior. I also got a very warm welcome from one of the owner's sons. He had very kind and soft presence. When I asked him if he could charge my phone he was happy to help.

Then I got the food I had been looking for, exactly how I hoped it would be. A big portion of 12 sausages and plenty of Sauerkraut, not just a handful like you sometimes find. Together with that I got a glass full of sauce bags with mustard. After I finished my plate I was completely satisfied. The brother of the waiter and his wife are great cooks in my opinion....
