12 Apostel Schulenburg Restaurant • Biergarten • Barocksaal in Hattingen

Today we had dinner at the restaurant with ten people. We all agree that we were very satisfied with the selection, service and range of dishes. The prices are also okay. We can recommend the restaurant with a clear conscience.

Had our absolute dream wedding with you! ✨ Great food, great service, fantastic location. All of our guests and especially us, as the bride and groom, simply felt comfortable. You responded to our every wish and supported and advised us not only on the wedding day itself, but also throughout the entire organization. Our guests still rave about the beautiful hall and the great atmosphere. A huge thank you to the entire team and especially to Semi! Kind regards, Luisa & Christos😊

Not only was it very tasty, but all the employees were as helpful as you would expect. Great class.

Banquet for a super awesome wedding, top service, great setting

Good service and friendly service. The food was very tasty. A good choice in Hattingen if you want something special. Price-performance is okay.

Good food, great service. Thank you.

Great service and friendly waitresses. I can only recommend it. The location is also very nice.

Nice atmosphere, good portions and nice staff...

This evening we were at the 12 Apostles in Hattingen for the first time. Very nice reception and very friendly waiters. Not pushy at all but always keeping an eye on the guests. The food was very tasty and the price-performance ratio was right. We'll be back.

We celebrated a great wedding for our daughter. Everything worked out as we had imagined. The food was delicious and visually appealing. The boss accommodated us in everything. The staff were polite and attentive. Thank you for the great celebration.

Steak day on Wednesdays. Highly recommended.

Leider total überfordert. Wir mussten 2 Std auf unser Essen warten. Ein No Go für dieses Konzept. Schade. Tipp: mind 4 Leute im Service. Notfalls nur mit Reservierungen arbeiten, um besser planen zu können. Die Location ist spannend.

Dinner with friends. We hadn't been here for a while and were surprised that the decor had changed. The room, which was previously elegantly furnished in black and gray tones, now had large tables and chairs covered with white covers. The dishes we ordered were consistently very good. The steaks were very tasty and grilled medium. The pike perch was also very good and there was a nice vegetable side dish. The amount of meat in the apostle pan was more than enough. Here too, the meat was very spicy and cooked to perfection. The service was very friendly and accommodating. We would love to come back again!

Eat deliciously every time P.S. Why can I rate this as a hotel as it is a restaurant

Very nice rooms, friendly staff, very tasty food at moderate prices.

Invited to dinner there after a confirmation. Very nice space outside but a long walk to the kitchen and bar (stairs). Started at 12.30 p.m. with a champagne reception. Was fine. On that day there was another family celebration next door with the same group size of around 30 people. You would have to wait a relatively long time for the drinks. Unfortunately, the starter was not taken until around 2 p.m. and only at 2 p.m Served at 30 p.m. A simple pureed tomato soup (like anyone can make at home) or a small antipasti plate, that was ok. Then we waited an hour for the main course. Then at 3:30 p.m. o'clock was served. Unfortunately, there was always one dish missing... that meant someone always had to wait while the others were already eating. But the individual main courses were tasty... my apostle pan had rice and croquettes as filling side dishes (vegetables would have been nice!). Since it was already 4:30 p.m., cake was served quickly, which was provided by the hosts. All in all, the service was unprofessional and very slow. Dishes were left lying around for a long time and trash wasn't put away. A complaint from the hosts was not taken seriously as "normal waiting times". As a guest, it was still fine for me. As a customer, I probably wouldn't book a party there. I can't say anything about the price-performance ratio, but I suspect from looking at the menu that it won't be cheap. So there is still a lot of room for improvement!!!

Very nice gastronomy, super nice staff, delicious food and perfect for celebrating!

Food and drinks great. Service great and very nice 👍👍👍

I didn't think it was particularly special the first time. Okay, second chance today and completely failed. Salad Magdalena. It's okay that a salad doesn't fill you up. But a bit of green salad with a thick stalk in it and over-salted steak strips... then you politely say that it wasn't good and not even the espresso afterwards as an invitation as an apology? For me it was the last time. You can definitely eat better in Hattingen for €18.90. Very disappointing!!!!

We celebrated my grandma's 90th birthday there She had rented the smaller hall. All service staff were extremely friendly and competent. The ambience is incredible and the food is beyond delicious! The location offers so many opportunities to host a celebration of all kinds, whether outside or inside, small or large. The children's playground is getting old and doesn't offer as much, but it was still enough for my children to spend time outside. At the same time, a free wedding ceremony took place under the tent outside, which then moved with the wedding party into the large hall, which was incredibly beautifully decorated. And a highlight for the older generation: you will be safely guided to the toilet by Humphrey Bogart ;) P.S.: I can't say anything about the rooms because we didn't stay there.

We celebrated our wedding here on August 24th, 2024. Service, location and food are simply great! All of our wishes were fulfilled and all the employees are very friendly. Highly recommended for a wonderful celebration! Always happy!

We had dinner there with the family. It was tasty, service was okay. The service was friendly. Although it wasn't that busy, it took a long time for the order to be placed and everything seemed a bit unrehearsed. It was still a good afternoon.

We came today at 7:00 p.m. and got table 25 on the edge. Drinks and food were consumed very quickly and the first drinks came quickly. At around 7:15 p.m. a couple sat down at the next table and also ordered and received their food a short time later. There was no further service or food until 7:45 p.m., whereupon we actively asked for service. He then came and brought us the second round of drinks. He also said that the food for our table would already be ready at the kitchen counter. This was obviously a blatant lie because no food came. The waiter also seemed caught checking the status of our order on his smartphone. Mistakes happen, but then you should be honest and not lie dirty. The couple at the next table had finished eating for a long time, it was getting dark and we were about to leave when the food finally came. The food itself was okay, a good portion and tasted good. The “still” Diet Coke, completely non-carbonated, was disgustingly disgusting. Why not just pour it from the bottle? All in all, the visit fulfilled its original purpose of getting full. But nothing more.

There were two of us here for dinner. It was Wednesday and therefore “steak day”. The food was very good, but in my opinion the fried potatoes (2 euros extra) came out of the pan a little too early and were not crispy or crunchy. The cooking point was just reached. But the steaks were TOP. Small downside: The steaks weighed around 200 grams. Since there was no side salad with the steaks (you would have had to order separately), 250 grams would have been more appropriate. My wife was full, I wasn't really. The bottom line is that the “12 Apostles” are recommended and we would be happy to come back.

A great restaurant, beautifully located. Great ambience, the food was very tasty and beautifully presented. Our waitress (Susi) was extremely friendly and attentive. Overall, a very well-rounded visit 🙏

Simply great. Delicious and loving staff! Thanks!

Wir waren am Montag den 12.08.24 an dem heissen Tag hier, hatten einen schönen Schattenplatz zum aushalten. Das Essen war super lecker, meine Frau hatte das Wiener Schnitzel original vom Kalb und ich hatte den Grillteller. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Preise waren angemessen. Wir hatten einen schönen Spätnachmittag mit lecker Essen und werden auf jedenfall wiederkommen. Auch die Aktion jeden Tag ein anderes Menu zu verbilligtem Preis gefällt uns. Montag war Pizza Tag und die Pizzen die an uns vorbeigetragen wurden sahen sehr gut aus und mit Liebe gemacht. Werden wir dann bei den nächsten Besuchen auch mal ausprobieren.

We have only ever visited the restaurant and we have always been very satisfied. Rich portions at fair prices. We'd love to come back.

Great service, nice, funny waiters, incredibly good food, huge, incredibly good menu, great event days. This is definitely worth more than 2 visits! Can only be recommended. We are thrilled!

Ich war auf einer Hochzeit, und ich war vom Essen begeistert. Das Personal war sehr freundlich.Sehr Gut ich würde den restoron weiter empfehlen.

Always casual and inexpensive food in a beautiful location. The service from the gentlemen is a bit rough and therefore takes some getting used to for some people.

We've been there several times now, most recently on Sunday. The food was good as always, but the service was a bit lacking. Drinks had to be ordered several times and the staff was overwhelmed that day. As an observer, one had the impression that the staff bullied each other and as a result the orders were not sent or were sent incorrectly. Sorry, but you have to work on it

Just a dream here! Staff very friendly! Got a table for 3 people today without a reservation. Are here on vacation right now! If you have the opportunity, you should definitely come here!

Very good food and nice service.

The service was friendly, but unfortunately the food was bad. Every meal was, in our opinion (we came as a group), poor ready meals.

It's great to sit there, in the middle of the forest. Great. The waiter was very nice, the salad was unfortunately soaked in sauce... everything else was good

Amazing wedding location. 💃🕺 Super friendly and helpful boss and employees. Very tasty food in a breathtaking setting. Even just going out to eat in the evenings 👍🏽 no problem here. Simply great. Keep it up (As a DJ😜 I can only recommend you)

Very nice staff and delicious food

Very good food, nice and good staff, very nice location

The staff was overwhelmed and the food caused diarrhea and had only just been reheated. On the whole, I wouldn't recommend it and advise everyone to eat meat dishes elsewhere.

Very tasty food. Good value for money.

Yesterday we celebrated my birthday with 13 people at the "12 Apostles". A large table had been reserved for us on the beautiful terrace. The lovely evening started promisingly with the friendly and experienced service. The meal that followed was rich, of really good quality and was also served in a very visually appealing way. The drinks were also great! Overall: a successful evening with the 12 Apostles. Gladly again!

Were there for the fourth time today. The location has its effect, but unfortunately we have to say that that's the only really good thing there. Unfortunately, the service hasn't improved one bit; It took an unreasonably long time for drinks to be picked up and brought - compared to other (dining) locations (especially when the tables were very small). After the food was served, no waitress ever came to ask whether or how we liked it... The food itself is nicely prepared and you can't complain about the portion size(s). What we noticed very(!) negatively today is that we ordered large bottles of water (sparkling and non-carbonated) and probably received tap water. When we got the first bottle (ordered carbonated but didn't contain any), we let the waiter know. A new one was brought in, which again did not contain any carbon dioxide. In the case of the next one - apart from the lack of carbon dioxide - the filling quantity wasn't even the "right" one. To then charge a whopping 6 euros per bottle is more than outrageous. Last but not least, the invoice presented was also incorrect. I haven't even mentioned everything here that was negative and we - with a total of four visits (and time intervals in between) - gave the restaurant a "chance", but were unfortunately very disappointed!

Very nice atmosphere, friendly staff and very tasty dishes. I'd love to come back 😊

We went out for drinks and food three days in a row last week. As always, the food was fantastic. The service is excellent at the schools castle. Very, very nice conditions and the boss is always ready for a nice chat. Thumbs up for all conditions.

This evening we were guests with six adults and one child. The staff were without exception friendly. The food, from vegetarian to fish, pasta and grilled meat, was to everyone's satisfaction. If you take a starter, the main courses are too filling. We had a lovely evening and went home very full. One small point that I didn't like is worth mentioning. The outside areas, from the wooden platforms to the window sills, the display of the menu boxes and the playgrounds, could use more attention. We'd love to come back. It is a beautiful location with ballrooms that is unrivaled in the region. So she deserves to have a large audience come here. Good luck for the future.

Super beautiful in summer! We sit under trees with a view of the countryside

We had a lovely evening here as a couple. The food was delicious, the service was quick and courteous. Gladly again.

Quality of the food like in a chip shop. Service bad. Far too expensive for that. Ambience is nice.

I've been to this restaurant several times and we've always been satisfied. But I'm at a loss for words about what's going on now. This time the food and the friendliness of the staff were beyond outrageous. When I ordered I asked what the dish was made of and what was included in the main course. The waitress assured me that she would take care of my concerns and then get back to me. There was no response and the invoice was a rude awakening. I had to pay for something I didn't order. After asking, I was arrogantly presented with the menu, saying everything could be read. And that the operation was new and that he couldn't be blamed for his colleague's mistakes. The actual waitress then lied to my face that she had pointed it out to me. Our companions didn't hear this either. For us it was the last visit to this house, in short, we received bad food for 50 euros and met arrogant staff.

Today was schnitzel day. The schnitzels were really good and the sauces were also great. In summer weather, the terrace with shady trees is very pleasant. Plus nice service and plenty of parking spaces. Gladly again.

I can't say anything about the hotel, I just ate there. There are special non-alcoholic drinks there. Really delicious

12 Apostles is absolutely recommended, top service! Very friendly people! and really clean!!! Of course it has its price but I think it's really fair and appropriate.

The food is okay, the location on the mountain without a car is a little strenuous but the view is amazing! Service was very nice! We celebrated a birthday here and would love to come back!

Nobody, even or german fellows that were used to booking a table at your place enjoyed their time. Also you should tell your costumers when you don’t have a specific meat (talking about the veal liver) instead of mischievously serving them cheap chicken. What isn’t fair is to swindle money from an old woman proudly inviting her family to a restaurant.

These fireworks at weddings are absolutely annoying!!!!!!! And it's absolutely stupid when these take place in broad daylight, like yesterday, June 14th, 2024.

Very nice staff, food very tasty, price-performance ratio okay! Ambience perfect! Addendum: You shouldn't eat there if there is a large company there at the same time. Order was taken after 20 minutes, food arrived after 1.5 hours. Waitress was rude. A pity...

Very tasty food and really great service 👍🏼

I have visited the location several times for weddings and restaurant visits. Both the service and the food were excellent. Happy to recommend it!

Always a pleasure. Super friendly staff, no long waiting times, nice atmosphere... We come regularly and love the spare rib offer :-)

My cousin's wedding was celebrated there. Location, food, everything was great. Staff also very friendly and committed, especially Suzan 👍

We enjoyed the food. Nice location.

Very nicely located, good view over Hattingen from the beer garden. The service was very friendly, almost warm, and always had a light word on her lips. The food was good, absolutely ok for the price. Drinks and food came quite quickly, value for money was right. By the way: I saw the pizza at the next table, it was great! 3 years later: we were so excited! Really great - good food. The meat was tender, the liver so tender, you didn't need a knife. We are already looking forward to our next visit here!

As always, very happy with everyone. Also on my birthday with family.

The food was delicious and the staff was very child-friendly

As a wedding photographer, I had the pleasure of accompanying a wedding in the 12 Apostleschulenburg/Baroque Hall and it was simply fantastic! The location is breathtaking, with a charming ambience that perfectly suited the celebration. The Baroque Hall is beautifully designed and provides a great backdrop for photos. The on-site team was extremely courteous and professional, and the food was delicious. I can highly recommend the 12 Apostlesschulenburg/Baroque Hall to any bride and groom looking for a unique and elegant wedding location! www.apollo-fotografie.de

For our taste, good food in an attractive atmosphere. There you have a nice view towards Essen. The service could be a little more oriented. Otherwise there is nothing significant to complain about.

We celebrated our daughter's communion on May 19, 2024 at the 12 Apostlesschulenburg. It was a successful celebration. Service, food, organization everything was top. Any time. All of our wishes/ideas were implemented perfectly - thank you again.

Beautiful location, great celebration 👌👌👌👌

Very good location for weddings. We had a dream wedding, made possible by the team's excellent service and all-day support. The food was perfect and everything was exactly as agreed. The price is absolutely fair. We were expecting something to go wrong the whole time - and everything just went smoothly 😉 In my next life I will get married here again. And we will be eating here again very soon.

Celebrated a wedding. Great staff!!👍👍👍First class food. It's also a great destination! There's enough parking space.

The first time in the 12 Apostles. Steak evening. Super tasty, prepared exactly as desired, medium rare 😋😋 Very good price-performance ratio 😀

As always, the food was delicious and the staff friendly and helpful. We would be happy to come back.

We celebrated our wedding here. And I am more than happy that we chose Semi and his team. The location is just a dream. No matter what you want for your wedding day, everything is done here to make it work. The food is just fantastic. But it's not just the food that's amazing, but also all of the employees. I have rarely experienced such attentive and friendly staff at a wedding. We even had the impression that they were having fun with our company. I can only say thank you, we will definitely come back again and again.

We were looking for a location for our wedding on April 27th, 2024 and after eating there 3 times before, we found it right here. Everything was much better than we imagined, all wishes were discussed and implemented in such a way that both of us were happy. The food was excellent and simply delicious and our entire party of around 30 people were extremely satisfied. What we want to emphasize is clearly the service. Super friendly staff, very attentive and always polite. All in all, our wedding was a little dream wedding thanks to the schools castle. We can absolutely recommend theschulenburg for events as well as for a nice meal with the family or as a couple or whatever. We will come back in any case. Many thanks again to the 12 Apostles team for the unforgettable day :-)

I was there as a guest at a wedding and it was a really nice evening. The room was beautifully decorated. The staff was courteous but never intrusive. The food was very tasty and there was a varied selection, even a separate salad bar. The location in general is well located, you feel a little outside, but easily accessible by car, and there are also plenty of parking spaces. I think it's not a bad choice as an event location.

The food tastes very tasty, the service is extremely friendly and the quality is also good. We love coming here often and have never been disappointed.

We dined with our dog on the beautiful terrace. Unfortunately there were no pizzas today because it was schnitzel day and the pizza oven was not in operation. We decided on a pasta that tasted good. There are schnitzel days (Tuesdays), steak days, pizza days, etc. You may want to ask in advance whether pizzas will be offered despite the theme day. The large shady terrace is very nice. After dinner we went for a walk with our dog in the adjacent forest. We parked right in front of the door in the free on-site parking spaces.

I can't comment on the taste of the food as I left without ordering. In the past the food there tasted good. I can rate the service and drinks and both definitely need improvement. First we were greeted by a friendly employee who then asked us if we already had a card, we said no. She immediately brought us the menu and said: “The boys are running around here without a head”. Afterwards an employee came and took our drink order. The two cola I ordered (1xLight and 1x normal) came without carbon dioxide, which I didn't know at the time. When asked whether the service could still distinguish which cola was normal and which was light, the service employee started pushing the glasses back and forth like a shell game. He didn't answer the question at all, mumbled something incomprehensible, made an annoyed face and then left. We tried both drinks and found that both tasted exactly the same. I called another service employee who then told me that there was only Cola Zero and no light. The communication with the second employee was very friendly and he apologized for his colleague and offered to bring new drinks, but the appetite for a grill plate was gone due to the behavior of the employee who brought the drinks and we said goodbye. I'm not sure if I'll visit this place again.

Top service! Delicious ! Friendly staff !!!

Pleasant atmosphere. Food very good.

Saturday 5:30 p.m.: Table reservation required. Service quick and friendly. The quality of the food was very good, but the portion size was very, very large. Leftover food can be taken with you. Nice beer garden.

Great restaurant and event rooms

The food was very tasty. We arrived shortly after opening with a reservation and still had to wait 55 minutes for our food. The staff was okay, but not particularly friendly. In general, communication was also a problem. We usually always go to Hilden, but wanted to try it out. Overall it was clean, the atmosphere was nice, but nothing more. We'd rather drive 30km more to Hilden - everything fits better there.

We were there for a family celebration on Mother's Day. Table reserved in advance. The young man who served us, Petrus, was very competent and friendly. Even though the restaurant was busy and busy, he remained respectful and professional. Towards the end they gave our mother a rose, which pleased our mother more than the food itself. 😂🥰 The food also left nothing to be desired. There is something for all meat lovers, fish lovers and even vegetarians. Despite the different orders, starters, main courses and desserts always arrived at the same time. Nobody had to wait more than a few moments for their food. I've been a fan of the 12 Apostles chain for several years, but this one has by far the best cuisine. My steak was cooked to perfection and the regional spagel was perfect. Always my pleasure.

Very nice staff and really delicious food. I can only recommend.

We went there for dinner with friends. The service was nice and courteous. The drinks and food were served quickly and the food was great.

Enjoy your meal Price and performance are right Service is very attentive gladly again

Everything there is currently getting a bit dusty, but that can of course change in the summer when the weather is nice. Contrary to the location, above Hattingen, and the ambience, the food was unfortunately pretty average. To be honest, I would have expected more sophistication. There are many standard dishes with fries, for example to make the mainstream happy, and then a lot of sauce on top. Some of which didn't feel homemade either. It could be so much better and there is somehow still a pizzeria corner in the restaurant, which in my opinion completely ruins the concept. Maybe I had wrong expectations but from my first impression of a classy restaurant I would now classify it as a stopover on a bike tour.

There is no overnight accommodation. Food, service excellent.

I love good pizza and have to say that I've had some of the best here. It's not easy to convince me, but everything here was just right. The quality and taste of the pizza, the great service and the ambience. I highly recommend it. Both thumps up. This positive review only applies to the siblings. Unfortunately the rest of the staff is horrible. I'm very sorry to say it like that. Good staff is definitely difficult to find but the operator must try to find them as quickly as possible!!!!

A wonderful location with super delicious food! We have been here several times in the evening and have always felt comfortable. The staff is very friendly and accommodating and the food is very tasty and attractively prepared. The steak evening is particularly recommended! We'd love to come back.

Nice location with great views over Hattingen. Pizza was very tasty. Friendly service. We will be back !

Ate with 9 people. Very friendly and nice staff. Quite large portions. Good plate full. Price quality good. Beautiful location and beautiful spaces. Definitely recommended if you are in Hattingen.

I can only recommend it, very tasty food, nice and friendly staff.

Not as nice as it used to be. The new opening hours are very late. Rice cannot be distinguished from fries🤔Music, saxophone playing too loud. Was pretty disappointed.

Just wanted to enjoy coffee and cake/sweets after a hike.... The hot drinks were served in a few minutes and the sweets after 25 minutes. So poorly coordinated. Quality didn't correspond to the price... My subtle comment was excused with the classic "Yes, but..."... I think that was the first and last time... Nice atmosphere inside, hence 2 stars... otherwise too expensive schnitzel ranch.

I was here with a larger group. The organization and coordination of the food and drinks was perfect. The staff is very nice and you are immediately warmly welcomed. Perfect travel destination for motorcyclists and families.
