AL PATCHO • Ristorante • Trattoria • Espressobar in Aachen

Friendly service, nice ambience, beautiful outdoor area, delicious food.

Very friendly, uncomplicated, delicious food and when it rained they even put up an umbrella for us!

A trattoria worth visiting. Delicious food, sophisticated atmosphere. The predominantly older clientele makes it a bit quieter. However, I've also experienced things differently when the local temperament comes through. It's always fun, so I'd happily go back.

It's so great to have such a good Italian restaurant right in a residential area! The food is delicious, the seating is lovely, both inside and outside on the terrace, and the people who work there are very friendly! A definite recommendation!

I ate here twice in quick succession; the quality was always good, the service was friendly, and there was a really relaxed atmosphere on the terrace.

The food was good, but the service was poor. One meal wasn't paid for, three meals were brought, but it didn't register that one person didn't get anything. Very inattentive.

One person's meal was incorrect. It was corrected, but the more expensive incorrect dish was still on the bill. Not good value for money. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Highly recommended, super delicious food and great service!

The food is exceptionally delicious! The waiters are extremely hospitable and have the best recommendations. Definitely worth a visit!

5 stars without reservation in all categories. Essentially no longer an insider tip. Tip: Make a reservation – and not just to snag one of the lovely terrace seats. Finest food & delicious drinks, all in a completely relaxed atmosphere!

A small but incredibly beautiful restaurant. I've been there several times now, and the food has been really good every time. On my birthday, I got a delicious teramisu on the house for dessert.

A very good experience in this Italian restaurant. We were glad we had made a reservation, because it was full on Saturday night (indoors), with nice weather you can also sit on a large terrace. Parking in the evening in the street is free. We ordered the pasta with salmon and chicken and pizza. It was served very hot and it was incredibly tasty! Large portion of salmon and chicken. For dessert delicious panna cotta! The service very correct: neat reception and escort, the boy who helped us was very nice and polite. Recommended!

Great restaurant in Aachen – highly recommended! We had dinner at Al Patcho and it was a complete success! As soon as you enter, you're greeted by the stylish decor and cozy atmosphere. Everything is very tastefully and modernly designed – you immediately feel at home. The service was top-notch: friendly, attentive, and professional. We received excellent service without being intrusive – just the right balance! The food was fantastic: fresh ingredients, creative cuisine, and beautifully presented. The pasta with shrimp was a particular highlight – perfectly seasoned and prepared to perfection. The dessert (a warm chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream and fresh berries) was also a delight! The drinks (we had a summery aperitif with fresh herbs) were not only delicious but also a real eye-catcher. The only small downside: the payment process at the terminal took a while. Our tip: If you're in a hurry, bring cash just in case. Conclusion: Super delicious food, great service, beautiful location – we'll definitely be back! Highly recommended for anyone looking for good food in Aachen.

Excellent food, attentive service in a wonderful atmosphere—what more could you want? We had a lovely evening and would love to come back. The food was beautifully presented, the service was witty, and we enjoyed sitting outside on the terrace today, like a little mini-vacation.

Very good food in a lovely setting. It was our first time there and we'll definitely be back. Your terrace is a dream.

Great atmosphere. It's especially nice to sit outside when the weather is nice. The food was also very good and the staff very accommodating! It's also nice after a walk... Great location!

The food was consistently delicious, the cocktails ditto. I would like to recommend the restaurant 100%. The service could be slightly improved depending on who is serving it.

Very tasty food, there is good vegan cheese on the pizza. Nice atmosphere and very pleasant service.

We had a wonderful evening! The terrace is fantastic and offers a great atmosphere to relax. The food was simply great – fresh, tasteful and lovingly prepared. The wine went perfectly with it. We were particularly impressed by the warm and attentive service. We would definitely like to come back!

We had the mocktails and pizza. They were amazing. The service was very welcoming. We will definitely be back. Thanks for the nice experience.

Al Patcho is the Italian restaurant with a lot of ambience and attention to detail. It is beautifully located on the Morillenhang with a large outdoor terrace for dreaming and sunbathing directly by the trees on the Johannisbach. We like to visit the Al Patcho restaurant for dinner and are always amazed by the cuisine. The kitchen team can be seen through a glass pane. The card leaves nothing to be desired. The insider tip is the chef's recommendations, so even gourmets will get their money's worth. He and his colleague maintain eye contact and ask whether we are satisfied or have any wishes. We feel comfortable and come regularly. The prices correspond to comparable restaurants in other cities. We enjoy the quality, the atmosphere and now the feeling of well-being. We strongly recommend reserving the table. We are already looking forward to our next visit! Our photos show the restaurant and its atmosphere. Photos of the menus also show the many other reviews.

Very nice and friendly people. Delicious food and very nicely presented. Only recommended

Everything great! Went there with a large group and were very satisfied

A pleasure for all senses Perfect combination of first-class food, friendly service and stylish ambience. Quality is very important here! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We always enjoy visiting Al Patcho and are impressed by the friendly service, cozy atmosphere, and the outstanding quality of the food. The last time we were there was last night. Everyone will find their absolute favorite dish on the menu. The dishes are not only incredibly delicious but also beautifully presented, and I think the value for money is absolutely excellent. We always enjoy inviting friends and relatives there for dinner, and so far, everyone has shared our enthusiasm. The Prosecco was also a delight; everything was excellent. We'd love to come back!

Very nice atmosphere..super tasty food..nice service..top

Everything was tip top! Very tasty food, nice ambience and great service 😊 Rarely have I had such a delicious Italian meal 😃 Really extraordinary 😊 I can only absolutely recommend it 👍

I went to al Patcho for the first time today. It was beautiful, the food was delicious and the staff were very friendly ☺️❤️

Everything is tip top! Highly recommended! Super tasty and very nice service :)

Delicious, Italian restaurant, recommended! The service is also very good and the restaurant decoration is also beautiful

Very tasty food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Gladly again and an absolute insider tip!

I had food there a few weeks ago, it wasn't the best, but it was still really tasty. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The ambience is very nice, and the music is good too, gladly again. Thank you 🤝🏽😁

The waiter was very polite and the food was extremely tasty.

It was a very nice evening, with delicious food. The cozy atmosphere was completely convincing.

Very friendly staff and the food was really delicious!

very chic ambience even when it's dark

Al Patcho - our new favorite restaurant and insider tip in Aachen ❤️ We have been there 3 times within 5 weeks and have gone home even happier each time! The Al Patcho team is super attentive, courteous, friendly and open. We have now received great service three times, we have been asked about our well-being at comfortable intervals and there has been no sign of pushing for drinks or food orders. You make you feel at home! The food: we hope the pictures speak for themselves! I was happy to have finally found an Italian restaurant in Aachen that offers montepulciano as the house wine, makes a reasonable vitello tonato and offers cannelloni as the main course. The portion sizes are just right and the food is beautifully presented. The meal is accompanied by pleasant background music! The ambience: stylish, elegant, chic, clean. Now we were able to toast your birthday and say after 3x Al Patcho - you are simply great! We will be regular customers ❤️ A big compliment and thank you to the team for making the evening so wonderful!

I had the pleasure (on recommendation) of visiting Al Pacho and it was a fantastic experience! The menu offers an excellent selection of classic and creative dishes. The service was also excellent: the staff was friendly, attentive and was able to give us great daily recommendations. The evening was rounded off with dessert – the tiramisu was to die for! The portions are generous and the price-performance ratio is absolutely right. Overall, a great restaurant that I would recommend to anyone who loves Italian cuisine. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

The first time, with zero expectations because it was a recommendation. Read the online menu beforehand, be curious, receive, order, eat, drink, chat. 1000% positively surprised. We'll be back, definitely. I deliberately don't say a word about the food, you have to experience it for yourself. Service absolutely perfect, friendly, courteous, never intrusive. This is how I want to be welcomed and looked after in every resto! ☺️

Small restaurant with a great ambience, very friendly staff and delicious food. We'd love to come back!

The food and service were fantastic. We had the Scaloppine and the Saltimbocca, as a starter salad with caramelized goat cheese and bruschetta. All of them are absolutely recommended! The service is super nice and accommodating, we felt completely at home here and would love to come back!

A really great Italian with everything you would hope for in an Italian restaurant! The food was without exception very tasty and authentic. Special requests and intolerances were addressed in a very friendly and professional manner. The service was impeccable, very accommodating and knew the menu very well. This meant that alternatives could be quickly offered in individual parts of the dishes. The ambience is cozy, straightforward and well-kept and invites you to linger. The drinks were prepared just as well as the food. We had a lovely evening all around. The only thing that could be criticized is the seating. Because the room is quite small, you essentially sit at the same table as the person sitting next to you. This can be annoying, but can also (as in our case) lead to a nice exchange between other guests. We will definitely come back!

A very attractive restaurant with excellent service, smaller but nicer! We each tried the lasagna and a dessert each, which were excellent! In addition to the dishes on the menu, there are other daily or weekly dishes that were kindly pointed out to us. It was a great evening and I can recommend the restaurant for a romantic couple's evening

We were treated like queens, it was beautiful with great food. Thanks for the lovely evening <3

The food is always delicious! Tiramisu is particularly recommended. Otherwise, the service is quick and you feel very comfortable there.

Wedding celebration at AL PATCHO: After our wedding we stopped at Al Patcho with the wedding party (just over 30 people) and were very happy with the food, the service and the ambience. The planning: We received very friendly and uncomplicated advice during the planning process. At two evening meetings we clarified the menu, decoration and processes. Regarding the menu, we were free to choose from the menu, and several good-sounding suggestions were made that were outside of the menu, some of which we offered. As far as the decoration is concerned, we were able to organize elements ourselves or, for example, rely on contacts from Al Patcho for napkins. We decided to get the floral decorations, napkins and place cards ourselves. We were able to bring the flowers over on the day of the wedding and everything was prepared by the staff. We felt very well supported during the planning. The location: The Al Patcho is located on a street with little traffic and offers a very nice, bright atmosphere with its terrace and large glass front. Because of the hedge surrounding the terrace, you are undisturbed as a closed group. The wedding was at the beginning of October and the second half of the day could be spent completely spontaneously on the sunny terrace. We are grateful for the flexibility offered to us. The service was also very good, no one had to wait too long for their food or drinks and the staff was very friendly. The food: Our guests and we ourselves were very satisfied with the food. After guests ordered, mixed appetizer platters were distributed, a good way for the company to eat while the main courses were being prepared. All guests were served their main courses so that they could eat together. We were explicitly told by a guest that they had the tastiest spinach pizza ever. At our request, we were allowed to bring a wedding cake for dessert, which was ideally complemented by the delicious desserts from Al Patcho in the form of small dessert glasses. Conclusion: If someone is planning a wedding or a similar event for up to 30 people, we can only recommend that they consider Al Patcho. Our experience was entirely positive. Many thanks to the staff for the great day!

Super tasty, great atmosphere and courteous service

Very tasty food, great ambience and great service. We had a lovely evening and would love to come back!

Nice waiters and not huge portions, but they still fill you up. Gladly again!

Super delicious food, very friendly service and great atmosphere. Always highly recommended! :-)

The staff was very friendly and very assertive. The food is nothing to complain about. Was tasty! Nice atmospheric restaurant. The only point, the ladies' toilet was not left tidy or not cleaned properly. Still worth a visit

Wonderful pizza in a relaxed atmosphere & really pleasant & professional service. When we are back in Aachen, we will come back ❤️❤️❤️

I was here for the second time today and I would come back at any time. The food is very tasty and the price-performance ratio is very fair. The “tranches of beef steak with linguine” are definitely recommended. The service is very nice and accommodating. Food deserves a 4.8 rating. I would find it appropriate.

Very, very tasty pasta and the pizza was also great, the waiter was very nice, definitely recommended!!!!!!🤩🤩🤩

The food was, as always, very tasty.

It was great again! We have been here several times and have never been disappointed. The service is always friendly and attentive, the food always tastes great and the atmosphere is simply cozy. You always feel welcome here. We're always happy to come back!

There were three of us celebrating my birthday. The staff were also okay with me being surprised with a beautifully presented dessert and a sparkler. Happy Birthday was sung and a Happy Birthday song was turned on. The shop is well decorated and very beautiful. Everyone was very nice and the ambience was perfect. The food was also very delicious. The bruschetta was the best I've eaten so far and is highly recommended. For my main course I had the Manzo salad, which was also very tasty. The dessert platter we got for my birthday was also incredibly good. I particularly liked the panna cotta. We also got the dessert plate on the house. I couldn't have wished for a more relaxing and better birthday. In any case, Al Patcho can be recommended and I will definitely come back, even if we come from Cologne.

You're getting better and better! Keep it up!

Our favorite Italian around the corner. Cozy atmosphere, inside in winter and on the terrace in summer. Sensationally authentic pizza (among the best in Aachen), pasta in great variations, delicious antipasti and, above all, always very warm, informal service. It couldn't be better.

First class service. The manager made everything possible and the food was excellent. Highly recommended

Great and cozy atmosphere. I enjoyed every second and every bite. Very nice service. I can only recommend it with a clear conscience.

Al Patcho has been our absolute favorite restaurant for a long time. And apparently we are not alone. About 2 years ago it was still an insider tip - now it's better to make a reservation! The food: A professional cooks here. Inventive, beautifully presented and above all delicious! The service: Attentive, unobtrusive and always friendly - that's how it has to be. The ambience: modern but very cozy, with attention to detail. Conclusion: Al Patcho is one of Aachen's top addresses for good food. We like to go as a couple, or with friends or family. In summer the large terrace offers plenty of space, in winter it can be a bit tighter inside. No problem. We always like to come!

Always a pleasure, nice service, food very delicious!

Delicious food in a nice atmosphere. The tables are a bit too narrow, so you can easily chat with your neighbors. In summer with a large outdoor terrace. Both waiters were slightly confused, asked several times about the order and then the wrong main course - it was still delicious.

Very tasty food, good service. And the seafood appetizer is incredibly delicious!

Delicious food in a cozy atmosphere. Good Neapolitan pizza, delicious pasta and a great and creative salad selection.

Excellent Neapolitan pizza and great ambience. - Ambience: Very nicely designed with a wonderful outdoor area for warm days/evenings: 2 gas fireplaces next to the entrance, white fabric-covered bar tables, very pretty, modern stone floors. Inside there is also very nice furniture with real wooden tables. Familiar and cozy space. - Food: great pizza, Neapolitan style, with a very nice thick and light base. Very quick preparation time. (Pasta looks tempting. We'll definitely have to try it next time.) - Prices: very reasonable for the good quality. - Guests: pleasant and quiet; Well attended on a normal Thursday evening. So be sure to reserve in advance! - Service: Very friendly and helpful Overall: insider tip! Highly recommended.

Great Italian cuisine with first-class service. For me the best Italian in Aachen at the moment.

Definitely worth a visit, we would love to come back. It's very nice to talk to a waiter about football.

Super tasty and quickly prepared. My personal recommendation is the salmon salad. The combination of salmon and fennel was fresh and something different

Super delicious food and great atmosphere.

The food was great! Really freshly prepared and served quickly. The atmosphere is really relaxed and comfortable. Would definitely recommend! :D

Perfect food and drink, very nice service

Very tasty lasagna....we finally didn't have to look for meat Come again

Very nice, uncomplicated, very good food, a positive surprise in an unexpected place. Gladly again .

We live near the restaurant and have visited it several times. During our visits we can highlight the hospitality and consistently attentive service. We have already tried the food and would never be disappointed. The portions are reasonable and the selection is clear, which underlines the high-quality cuisine. The ambience is very nice inside and out and invites you to linger. In summer you can really end the evenings with cocktails, drinks etc. We would be happy to come back and recommend others.

Very nice location, the food is perfect, nice staff. Food is always great. Steak is highly recommended. If you want to look forward to a nice evening, this is the place to be.

Brilliant pasta with chanterelles, good service.

Very friendly service and the food was great

Very nicely decorated restaurant with good service and delicious food. Can recommend!

The food is great and doesn't take long, the location is pleasant and only to be desired, the service is very friendly and entertaining, I can only recommend it!!!

I ate there for the first time with my family today and we were very impressed. The food was very good. The service was great and hard working. I can only recommend it as a great location to eat there (ps: get the black taglierini with octopus).

A restaurant in a cozy corner with great food and a beautiful location. I've been ordering almost exclusively from this restaurant lately. Price-performance is adjusted at the moment.

The restaurant has a large outdoor area, which is tastefully designed, on a quiet side street. Parking is available. The food is lovingly prepared and is an absolute pleasure with a pleasantly large menu. The drinks are also tasty. It's just a shame that you feel like you're not welcome as a guest. Starting with a somewhat annoyed look when the group size is more than the usual 4 people, continuing with the fact that it takes 30 minutes until the drink order is taken. The order came quickly and the food was good. Responding to a guest's request for another glass with the words “then open your mouth” clearly shows the (non-existent) motivation to offer good service. Basically, our visit was characterized by the feeling of being unwanted. Too bad. No recommendation, and if so, it's best to take food away without contacting the service. So an evening like this at decent prices is no fun, obviously neither for the staff there nor for the guest.

Very nice, cozy outdoor area, nice staff and very tasty food 🫶

Everything great! Great food, very friendly staff! 😊 thank you! Gladly again!🤩

Very nice location, fabulous food. We had a pleasant evening and enjoyed it!!

Rather expensive, tiny portions, but tasty.

A restaurant in a residential area. The surroundings and space do not create an atmosphere suitable for a ristorante. A spritzer with non-carbonated water... Warm wheat beer on a summer evening... Lasagna without any real flavor...

Well from my POV one of the best italian places in Aachen: pizza for sure the best, bruschetta-absolutely the best, and the burrata I like too, some of the pastas I tried were also very good (aglio olio and linguine with shrimps). It’s always very friendly and fast. But better to reserve. And the delivery if you order from home is also very fast. Parking around is usually alright, no problem.

Discovered by chance. Top value for money, very tasty pasta, very good steak. Plus top service, a pleasant atmosphere and nice background music. You don't miss anything.

Nice relaxing evening. Very friendly and attentive service. The food is to die for!

Nice relaxed atmosphere, super friendly and the food is lovely. We recommend!!!

Super nice employees!!! The food is seasonal and delicious. The terrace invites you to linger. Summer evenings pre-programmed. We keep coming back

Cozy “real” Italian, not a pizza place. Tasteful music, nice service, absolutely delicious food, nice terrace.

Nice ambience, high quality food with a varied seasonal daily menu, nice service! We'd love to come back again and again!

It was our first time at Al Patcho in Aachen and we absolutely loved it! As soon as we entered the restaurant, we were warmly welcomed by the friendly service and immediately felt at home. The service was consistently attentive and very accommodating, which made our visit a special experience. The food was simply outstanding! Every dish was lovingly prepared and tasted a real delight. We would particularly like to emphasize the variety and quality of the food – everything was very, very tasty. The atmosphere at Al Patcho is also very nice. The cozy atmosphere invites you to linger and makes your stay a pleasant one. We are already looking forward to our next visit and can highly recommend Al Patcho to everyone!

We didn't know Patcho yet and we're not from Aachen either. However, we are always looking for small, cozy restaurants with friendly owners and excellent food, because we love food, not only privately but also professionally, as we run a small restaurant ourselves in Merkstein. We are explicitly not in favor of system catering and we do not use the word “cheap” or the phrase: “It was OK and cheap.” when eating out. What's good also has to cost something and in the end we want to be surprised by the culinary delights when we eat out. And Al Patcho has completely succeeded in doing that. You are greeted in a very friendly manner at the entrance, given excellent advice when ordering and what comes to the table not only looks great, but also tastes wonderful. We look forward to visiting again soon! We just forgot to ask if small dogs were allowed, but even if they weren't, we would come here again and again. The world needs more very good, small restaurants with owners who love what they do. And you can see and taste it. Thank you for a lovely evening and sharing your art.

Our favorite 🤩 Great ambience Top food Very attentive service Nice terrace We always like to come back. A great end to the day!!!

Delicious, super nice, totally cozy 🥂
