Alte Küch'n & Im Keller in Nürnberg

Great ambience and very good food. One of the few places where you can get Backers to eat.

All in all a lovely evening in the Alte Küch’n. Very friendly and attentive waiter and great food. We got up feeling perfectly round and very happy 😁

I recommend. Nice and very friendly staff. Tasty German cuisine. I'd love to come back again.

Was there for the third time and was great again. Food, drinks and service were great. Gladly again.

Review of the Alte Küch'n The food was delicious and tasted good. The price/performance ratio of the gratinated sheep's cheese could be debated. The atmosphere is very original and cool at the same time.

Delicious food and super friendly staff!

Location with passion, great home-made schnapps and great service (especially Nicole)..we would love to come back!

We went to a knight's dinner with 20 men in March 2025. Quantity and quality of food absolutely not satisfactory for €40 per person. The food neither tasted good nor did we feel full. You simply pay for the name and the flair here. The so-called Bard was also disappointing and we were expecting a little more entertainment. The only positive thing was the service and the ambience. Unfortunately not recommended.

Beautiful place, the decor is incredible! Perfect service! And the food is excellent! I highly recommend it and we will definitely be back!! And the beer? Sensational!!

The food looks delicious, nice inn atmosphere. Unfortunately, there are so many people parked at the counter that after a long wait it's no longer fun and you'd rather go somewhere else. Too bad.

Very good food in a great location!

Tourist restaurant with extremely friendly staff and prices appropriate to the location.

great atmosphere, good food, perfect service.

With a reservation (online) we were able to eat well here for 16 people. The service was always very courteous and considerate. We would love to come back here.

Went to a knight's dinner Was very well done

We were in the kitchen - not eating in the basement. The staff is nice and friendly. The food was super tasty. Unfortunately it is very narrow and very loud inside. Everything is a bit hectic

The authentic Bavarian restaurant where personal is wearing “traditional” folklore clothing. Very interesting interior too. The good was good, but nothing too wow but tasty. The portions are huge, so be prepared.

A very cozy restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere! Was there once and had a nice evening. The food was delicious and the service was friendly. Unfortunately it was a bit noisy, making it difficult to have conversations. Still a nice place, I'd love to come back!

Super friendly service. Fully on the ball. Food tastes very good.

It's incredibly delicious, the cellar beer is easy to drink, and the food is delicious. The ambiance is especially amazing, and the service and everything else is simply fantastic. See for yourself.

The food is very good, and the basement is really cool, all medieval 🏰

I loved this restaurant—the day I spent there is something I’ll hardly forget. It’s a perfect place for spending time with friends, and it feels like being in the Middle Ages! The atmosphere is truly captivating, and the hosts are amazing at making you feel comfortable. Minstrels, shields, swords, and so much more—I kept singing the folk songs I heard there for days! And the food, wow! Speaking as an Italian, I have to say—the food is really good!

The "Alte Küch'n" in Nuremberg delights with its cozy, traditional ambiance and authentic Franconian cuisine. The lovingly decorated parlor invites you to linger, while the menu offers a delicious selection of regional dishes. The food was delicious. The fantastic staff deserves special mention: Alisia, Fahd, and Claus, with their warm manner, attentive service, and expert advice, ensure a thoroughly pleasant experience. Thanks to them, you immediately feel welcome here. A wonderful place to enjoy Franconian specialties in a relaxed atmosphere! We really enjoyed the weekend with you and would definitely come back. See you in September, we're looking forward to it. Best wishes from Sonja, Irma, Sandra, and Jessica

Nice restaurant with traditional German food. We expected the atmosphere to be more "medieval" but it had a beautiful decoration. The service was very prompt and polite and there was a lot of variety on the menu. However, the prices were high and the portions were not large.

Reserved for two weeks After arriving (10 minutes late) the table was given away. Restaurant very very cramped and very loud. Kitchen is good.

Arrived 10 minutes late. Reserved table was given away. We then had to wait at the bar. Food was okay, but too expensive. We found it too crowded, too narrow and too loud.

Good food! Awesome environment!

Historical restaurant with delicious foods. Only issue is the big-portion main dish. Hahaha.....

The knight's meal is recommended. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff. The bard who accompanied us through the evening was sensational. The food is plentiful and good, and special requests (no pork, vegetarian) were courteously addressed. We recommend you and will come back

I really liked this place. Nice and comfortable atmosphere. The food is delicious, fast cooking. It's really worth the money. I want to highlight the very nice waiter Tim. The man served us right away and offered us dishes that were quickly prepared (we were in a hurry). The guy served us very nicely and helped us with the choice. He communicated very nicely and always tried to help us if necessary. I give 5 stars and more thanks to the waiter Tim🙏🏻 I really liked this place. Pleasant and cozy atmosphere. The food is delicious, prepared quickly. It's really worth the money. I would particularly like to highlight the very pleasant waiter Tim. The man served us immediately and offered us dishes that were prepared quickly (we were in a hurry). The guy served us very nicely and helped us with our selection. He communicated very nicely and always tried to help us when needed. I give 5 stars and more, thanks to the waiter Tim🙏🏻

Good food, good hospitality and hand on heart children: Your bard is a god of entertainment. Would crash into your basement again

Very rustic, tasty 😋 and friendly

Excellent historic venue that needs no introduction as it is very well known and extremely popular. I confirm the very positive opinion also for the kindness and hospitality of the staff. Exquisite and plentiful traditional food. Honest prices.

Traditional Bavarian food at it's finest. Be sure to order the pork shoulder!

Wonderful and lovely medieval themed place within the walls of Nuremberg's old town near the castle. Great food and great beer. Friendly and fast service. Clean toilet.

Ohhh yaaee, that's what I call a great medieval restaurant. The food “Im Keller” was fantastic, the staff was courteous and the ambience was brilliant. And I had these impressions when I was sober. That probably means that this restaurant is really, really good.😁

We ate in the basement for the first time and we really enjoyed it. The food was delicious and the portions were large. The service is friendly and attentive. The ambience is authentically decorated. Gladly again.

That was such a beautiful evening! Terrific. Top service, top food.

Great food, great service and a cool location

Great restaurant with Franconian cuisine

Hemos probado este lugar antes y es realmente uno de los mejores; gran entorno y ambiente con comida decente, pero no genial. Disfrutamos de los platos locales de Franconia que estaban bastante bien hechos. No excelente pero bueno. Problema con el servicio - nuestro camarero hizo todo lo posible, pero estaba claramente en necesidad de algo de capacitación y colegas para apoyar en una noche ajetreada.

Good restaurant. Food is good but not great. Service was a bit slow, apologetically, it was very busy.

Knight's dinner with good food, great entertainment and very tasty beer. Great for celebrating with friends

Very good food and nice atmosphere. It's just that you're sitting very crowded and there's hardly any room for the neighboring table. The service was very courteous and friendly. Early reservation is recommended.

Everything really fits here! Service is super attentive and very friendly. The food was sensational.

The food was worthless for the price. The quail was more than dry and the ribs were fatty.

Ambience and service are great. On our first visit to the cellar, the food was also good. On our second visit, this time to the Alte Küchn, we were unfortunately disappointed with the food. Unfortunately, the “Viennese veal schnitzel” had little to do with this. The meat was thick and tough and the breading was unfortunately neither airy nor even and brown. Not a good price-performance ratio for just under €27. With Schäufele, the meat was still firm and didn't fall off the bone on its own. In addition, both the schnitzel and the fried potatoes were very oily.

We had a 60th birthday party with imperial food! Our guests were thrilled with the food, service and the great ambience! We had a thoroughly fun and entertaining evening! Many thanks to the entire team!!

Amazing experience! Great show and an affordable meal for what we got. Will come back!

Never again. Absolute impudence. Ordered Schäuferla and in my opinion it was rather grubby. We were also offered sauerkraut. The big shock came with the bill. €5 for a small portion of sauerkraut. Outrageous, really. As if the sauerkraut was decorated with gold. I give a big anti recommendation. If you want an extremely poor price-performance ratio, this is the place for you. Service was friendly.

Everything was perfect and there was a great atmosphere thanks to the entertainers. Very relaxed interaction and all in all a wonderful evening

It's a rustic and nice restaurant. Service was top and the food was good.

On July 27th, 2024 I had dinner with a friend in your restaurant, but I received an incorrect bill. We ordered 6 Nuremberg bratwursts, a pork knuckle, a Kellerbier on tap and a Pilsner on tap, but the bill shows something completely different. Since I was a little drunk, I didn't check the bill properly. On July 28, 2024 at 11 a.m. I went to your restaurant. The woman with blonde hair was very rude. She didn't want to help me and screamed. She gave me 6 business cards from the restaurant and said that I have to come on July 29th or call the restaurant. Since I had to go to Munich on July 29th and I'm traveling at the moment, I couldn't come by or call.

Recommended because it's very rustic

Wonderful environment, traditional shop, with wonderful staff and very good food

Very cozy and super delicious food. Waiter was very polite and helpfull. Best recomendations

Very tasty food but service (on the phone and at the restaurant) was quite rude.

Good food and great cellar beer prices are okay!

Delicious. The waiter was super nice.

Es war nur gut. Service, Preis Leistung umsichtiges Personal. Extrawürstchen freundlich erfüllt. Fazit- eben einfach gut

Me encantó. había dos zonas. . . subterráneo y a nivel de calle, preferimos el aspecto de subterráneo, ya que era muy acogedor en el frío invierno. El servicio era muy bueno, todo se sentía auténticamente alemán . . la comida era abundante, que es justo lo que necesitábamos y era tan sabroso.

An incredible experience, all the senses are awakened! I recommend the knight's banquet 100%

Typical tavern worth trying!! the onion soup is touching with how good it is, and the staff is very friendly and attentive. I recommend it 😊

Something completely different. Ambiance is reminiscent of grandma's times. The food is good and down to earth with no frills. The room is long and narrow, which makes it seem a bit cramped. Service was friendly and quick.

A visit to a knight's dinner is definitely worth an experience. 👍🏻

We had dinner in the Alte Küch'n restaurant. The Schäuferle and the knuckle were okay. Unfortunately, the pork medallions came in a very heavily salted and peppered sauce. The dessert was good. The service was partly friendly. The smell of toilet in the back of the restaurant was unpleasant. The ambience is pleasant with numerous historical accessories.

Eating in a medieval atmosphere was a unique experience. The “In the Basement” area was very impressive. The dishes were delicious and carefully presented. The staff was extremely welcoming and professional. The knight's dinner event was particularly entertaining. A place I will definitely visit again.

Top food, cozy and very friendly. We ate there on Christmas Eve - it was simply good.

Lovely old pub, delicious simple food, quick and friendly service - wonderful.

Super delicious, top service, called and reserved a table within 30 minutes. Greetings from the guys

Authentic German Bavarian Tavern, worth going for the experience. The place is very good and the service, the creamy potato soup is very good.

Great atmosphere relatively fast service and the food is decent.

nice potato dumpling and large portion of crispy tasty Schweineschulter.

New Year's Eve Knight's Dinner 2024

Great traditional food. Delicious and rich. And the waiters are really great.

A really great place to leave everything out for once!! Historical walls, good old Franconian cuisine and a service that has fun and enjoys what they do. Super

The cellar is harmoniously furnished and has its own flair. The Schäuferle was good and not too small, as is unfortunately increasingly the case in the city these days. In terms of taste, it was in the upper middle range, but there were even better ones. The service was very quick and our food arrived in less than 15 minutes. Overall, I recommend it, especially because of the atmosphere.

The food was very good! The service was very attentive, the waitress was the spirit of the place, making everyone feel at ease and ensuring a pleasant dinner. I had shrimp, large, well prepared. The house liquors are strong, but smell good and are tasty.

Food was great. The locations are very nicely designed, but a bit cramped (only the upper area was open, the basement was closed). The staff was a bit under pressure, which was probably due to the timing, shortly before Christmas. But still friendly and very hard working. We will definitely come back.

We went there for dinner as part of a stay in Nuremberg, in advance, it was phenomenal. The restaurant is located in a house whose vaulted cellar dates back to the 13th century. Very nice atmosphere, small but fine restaurant. We sat right next to the kitchen, where you can watch the cooking live. We received a warm welcome, very nice and organized staff. We ate: roulade, sauerbraten, Ländchen, dumplings, backers and apple strudel. Taste wise 10/10. We'll definitely come back when we head south.

Large vaulted cellar, lots of people, loud, hearty and rough 😉

Nice seventh, friendly service, food with background music. The starter (small soup with yeast dumplings) was relatively weak in taste, Schäufele was crispy, but the rind was a bit too much and not completely cooked through on the inside. The dessert (apple cake) was apparently not homemade. Still, all in all; the overall package was right.

Unfortunately the quality has declined significantly, the food used to be better here. I will avoid the place from now on. Really a shame! Service friendly

At the knight's meal you have a beautiful location in the rustic vaulted cellar of Nuremberg's old town. The juggler's performance is always a pleasure and keeps beer consumption constant 😉 There's nothing wrong with the food. Every type of diet is catered for and everything tastes excellent. 🤤

Is a typical tourist restaurant. Food good, price fair for the location, service very friendly and multilingual, ambience rustic and cozy. Since everything is very good and the restaurant is in a prime location, it's unfortunately like a dovecote. As a Nuremberg resident, for me it is an address where visitors can easily go. You can get your own Schäuferle in the surrounding area.

We spontaneously got a seat in this restaurant and were very positively surprised: nice selection of food and drinks, very tasty and fresh dishes, top service and a nice, rustic atmosphere. The only slightly negative thing is the long wait for the food and the tables are a bit too small. Otherwise everything is great and a clear recommendation!

¡Muy caro! Tal vez es mi opinión!!! Mis hijos (adolescentes) necesitan más comida! La comida era muy pobre para 10 personas y el precio 430 debido a las cervezas €!!!

That was a bit strange. We called in advance to check if there are free tables. They answered it is ok to come any time. So we did. But after 1hr in the middle of the meal they said we must free the table because it is reserved . It was a Christmas Eve btw)))

Very nice atmosphere. Food good... not very good. Price-performance ratio could be better. But the location also counts and the beautiful furnishings.

Be careful of the waiter put the tips in the bill! 1st time when I went to this restaurant was in 2015, it was a very good experience and memorable. So that when I visited again the city before Xmas, I brought friends with me and introduced them this restaurant. The food was still ok, but the service was miserable. We don’t need someone speaking lots of different languages but at least English, that’s something important for the job. The worst part was he put the tips in the bill, instead of asking us if we appreciated his service. Yes, the guy originally from Morocco, honestly his service was disturbing and annoying. As I showed him the picture what I wanted, he still forgot. I had to tell the guy in the counter again in the middle of my meal. Honestly, I’ll not go there anymore just because of the service. It’s nothing to do with food and ambience. Hope the owner could train them well in the future.

I would prefer to give 0 stars. Despite the reservation, we waited 15 minutes for our table to become available. The service woman was unfriendly and impatient from the start, but we still placed our order. The duck was so dry that even I had trouble chewing the meat with my young teeth. Pork knuckle wasn't prepared on the same day either. We were very disappointed and this experience at this restaurant was a failure despite the good reviews. We won't be coming back.

nice atmosphere, good Schäufele. Service okay. One person at our table had the potato pancakes with bratwurst, unfortunately the potato pancakes weren't good at all, the look and unfortunately also the taste. Very egg-lasting & limp… maybe that was because we were here the day before Christmas, I don't know The prices are probably very high because of the tourist situation, which was really cheeky when it came to the potato pancakes... - a real Nembercher

delicious cellar beer and nice service

Although there was a lot going on (logically in the Christmas market phase), the service was top, the staff was very friendly and the food was great. And if that's not a reason, then it should be the medieval vault in which the restaurant is located. We had our table for 2 hours, which was absolutely sufficient as the service was very quick. We had enough time to eat and didn't feel rushed at all. Thank you for this great experience But you should make a reservation, otherwise it will be difficult for several people

El restaurante era cálido y acogedor en una noche fría, y dispuesto a dar un paseo - ins (convirtiéndose en una rareza durante la temporada de Navidad). La comida no estaba mal, no muy bien. Era un promedio de tres estrellas. La carne estaba un poco seca y demasiado cocida (tal vez se quedó demasiado tiempo en una sartén caliente) y las salsas estaban un poco faltas de sabor. Las opciones de vino y cerveza y los precios eran buenos, y el servicio era amable y acogedor.

Had a Christmas party here, every meal was great, service was great! Gladly again!

Very nice atmosphere, very nice service, but the “restaurant manager” in the basement doesn't work at all! Impudent and cheeky. Food is mass processing and bottling. Without warning, the cheese platters were cleared away after a short time - still almost full - and they were thrown out. We were a group of around 50 people from different countries for a meeting in Nuremberg, ending with a knight's dinner. The minstrel sang well, but the constant drinking meant there was hardly any opportunity for conversation.

We made a reservation and got turned away at the door for being right on time. They were very rude and told us that had no room for us and that we should go somewhere else. So we went across the street and it was awesome. Great food, polite service and great local patrons. We’ll never go back to Alte Kuch’n Im Keller and recommend that you don’t either.

Great place, truly excellent service with very nice and kind waiters. Truly wonderful environment (I recommend booking the table on the lower floor the day before, where there are all the special decorations). Regarding the food I can say that it is delicious, the meat is very tasty, the only flaw is the variety.

We went to the knight's meal in the cellar. If you're into it and like a rustic atmosphere, this is the place for you. That was a great evening!
