Alter Krug Dahlem in Berlin

The three of us had dinner here in the evening and only made a personal and uncomplicated reservation in the afternoon. The tiled stove in particular contributed to a cozy atmosphere in the room, which was characterized by lots of wood. The food was excellent (the best schnitzel I've ever had) and plentiful. The service was very friendly and quick, never intrusive and gave us friendly advice. Thank you!

Absolute recommendation, Great food, great service. It was very nice.

Excellent half duck, crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. Sauce was successful. Service quick and friendly. We'll be back!

Recommended traditional restaurant with a nice ambience. The service made a lot of effort and was often with the guests. The food was tasty and there was enough on the plate. The prices were reasonable. There are enough parking spaces for cars.

Today we were surprised at the Alten Krug, I always had good memories from my last visits. The service was very pleasant and friendly and the prices were all reasonable. The food was okay, it came very quickly, but you can tell that it was convenience food. The mashed potatoes tasted like they came out of a bag, the sauce was also somehow ready and the cabbage rolls had some kind of taste. So the chef wasn't particularly imaginative. The risk of recurrence is currently zero

The schnitzel was excellent. Very good selection of food. The meat was incredibly tender and the potato salad was perfect.

The food was fantastic. We had schnitzel with warm potato salad, black pudding and roulade with red cabbage. The meat melted in your mouth. Super tasty. Fast and very friendly service. We'll be back very soon.

Half the duck was too dry, the red cabbage lacked acid, and the salmon was unfortunately completely over salted. Unfortunately, the initially attentive service did not respond to the complaint. The food there is just too expensive for that… The Kaiserschmarren for dessert, however, was very good and saves the third star.

Won't come back, risotto is really soft and dry. I've eaten risotto before but it's not risotto at all. Food plate was really dirty. Have to pay attention to hygiene and cleanliness.

But a glass of rose wine 12.50 euros! Yes, dear owner, I understand, the new S Class has also become more expensive!!! Unbelievable, 9.90 would be enough too! The kitchen is very good, service is great but you are so ripped off with a glass of wine! But it was sad! Decline of culture in this country! What a shame!

Very tasty food in a great ambience, either rustic or more elegant. Nice, attentive employees. Absolutely recommended!

The old jug is located at Queen - Luise - Str. 52, in 14195 Berlin. In this respect, the aforementioned restaurant is a historic inn in Berlin Dahlem, with a beer garden, restaurant and a room for events and wedding celebrations. I drank various good beers there and ate a pike-perch fillet. Both were very delicious. The staff is very friendly, helpful, socially competent and very valuable. I would be happy to recommend this excellent address. Ladies and Gentlemen If you liked my review, please give me a like! Thank you in advance for all your good efforts. With kind recommendations Bernd Gutermuth

Such a nice restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, delicious food and attentive friendly staff We'd love to come back there.

You should take the PDF menu off the internet

Extraordinary cuisine 💪🏻👍🏻🙋🏼‍♂️

We were very happy with the food and the service. Unfortunately, there was a lot of cleaning going on during our stay, including in the dining room. We couldn't really enjoy the food due to the strong smell of the cleaning product.

Brown sauce really doesn't taste good at all. I can only advise staying away.

Price performance okay. Classic: Viennese veal schnitzel. Nice beer garden in summer.

Been there again 👍 great as always ✌️

Delicious food, friendly service and a nice ambience

Traditional restaurant in a friendly setting

Great food, nice service, great to sit outside in the summer 👍👍👍

A traditional restaurant that I visit from time to time. The atmosphere is rustic and tasteful. This time we had 1/4 duck for lunch with the usual side dishes. The dish was tasty and the price-performance ratio was good. Unfortunately we had to wait quite a long time for food.

Essen und Service gut. Preise sehr gesalzen. Leider war die Lautstärke nicht bei vollem Restaurant nicht zu ertragen und für unsere älteren Familienmitglieder eine Zumutung 😩

Cozy, interculturally competent service, delicious food, German cuisine and more.

Been there several times, whether summer or winter, it's always delicious 😋... Staff very friendly...always asking if everything is OK. No long waiting times.

Service is very attentive. Food was very good. The goose and duck were very tasty! The apple strudel was perfect.

The restaurant lives by its old name. Boxing Day. Reservation only with a 50 € deposit, which will only be charged if the original receipt is presented (don't you have a copy there?). You can't decide where you want to sit when you make your reservation. The rooms are crammed to the hilt. It's terribly tight. The menu prices, which were already high in previous years, are now astronomical (almost €90 per person). So we only took the main courses. They were still very expensive (no dish under €55!) The quality was good, but still didn't justify the price. However, the intended vegetarian dish was no longer available; instead, vegetable side dishes from another dish were offered. The Christmas dessert was boring (chocolate cake with 1 scoop of walnut ice cream) and there was no choice. But the food came very quickly and the service was nice, hence at least 2 stars. Unfortunately, overall, no recommendation. There are better things at cheaper prices in southwest Berlin - even at Christmas.

The restaurant is very popular and was very busy on the afternoon of the 3rd Advent. The management at the entrance was well organized and the staff were consistently friendly and competent. We were lucky enough to sit in one of the smaller side rooms. In the large hall, the background noise is a problem for those with poor hearing. The food was okay in varying degrees. My beef fillet strips were rather mediocre. However, the Kaiserschmarrn was very good.

Familien Weihnachtsessen Nicht zu empfehlen, im hinteren Raum kommt man sich vor wie im Tagungshotel. Essen mittelmäßig, dafür völlig überteuert ! Weinpreise ebenfalls völlig überzogen.

Yes, OLD but PERFECT. Despite full capacity, food and drinks arrived at short notice, Staff was great, young and dynamic. THANKS !!!! 🍀 🍀 🍀

We went there with our whole team (around 14 people) to eat goose. Unfortunately, the waiters were rather annoyed and disorganized. Maybe it was all just too much. The food was mediocre. I came based on a recommendation and really hoped for more.

The Christmas goose was a disaster! Eating at the Alter Krug is a thing of the past for us forever.

Village atmosphere, wonderful Christmas food and probably the best goose in town.

A location that has everything you need to feel good. The employees were very nice and accommodating, and the waiter assigned to us also had a good dose of humor and fun. There was nothing wrong with the food - it was good and high quality at a fair price. The ambience reflected the feeling of a restaurant from Bavaria/Austria. An all-round harmonious restaurant that was absolutely worth the visit. A reservation is highly recommended.

We always like to eat at the Alten Krug as a couple or with friends. The food is always excellent, the service is always competent and friendly! Keep it up! We are already looking forward to the next visit!

The food was tasty but the portions were far too small and no one at the table was full. The staff was visibly stressed and relatively rude. We felt treated very degradingly, our reserved table was moved at short notice and it felt like we were being “deported” to the winter garden. We only had 2 tickets and 1 drink ticket for 6 people. A dish at our table was completely forgotten and only brought when we asked when we had already eaten, and without any apology. Portions of the goose were different for 2 people, one had a leg + breast, the other had 2 legs. Generally not a pleasant atmosphere, we left straight after dinner. It was a small company Christmas party and we actually wanted to stay a while. Big disappointment because we wanted to treat ourselves to something from our long-collected tips.

It was a really nice evening. The service was 1a. The food was also delicious, but I would have liked some more traditional red cabbage. It was too crisp.

Everything fine. Very tasty food and friendly staff.

I had been looking forward to the duck dinner for a year and was not disappointed this year either

Had an excellent meal on two evenings, no complaints.

Christmas party with 100 people on December 5th, 2024 Agreements in advance were very difficult and with a very rude tone. Agreements were not kept E.g. mulled wine and alcohol. Free punch for the aperitif, there was only punch Table decorations (fir branches and candles) promised free of charge by the owner and the restaurant manager. Not even 1 candle per table of 8 was provided. Water bottles were supposed to be placed on the tables, which was also the case, but unfortunately the red wine was simply placed on the tables and white wine was only brought upon request from the guests. We had agreed on a flat rate for drinks that was valid until 10.30 p.m., but after 10 p.m. there was no more water because the quota had been exhausted. The allergy dessert was missing from the menu. Should then be asked at the table. The service manager for our event went from table to table yelling "Allergies?" None of the guests understood what it was about at that moment. The food was good, not top quality but really ok. We had agreed to pay in advance because we didn't want to pay a 5-figure amount at the end of the event. Despite multiple inquiries from us regarding the advance payment invoice, there was no response at all - as is usually the case. At the end of the event, the service manager detained the last guests and forced them to pay the entire bill with their private credit cards. Went there the next day to complain. The only thing we can say is that we can't explain how this all happened. No accommodation, apology or anything like that. Upscale gastronomy - totally non-existent

We wanted to pick up food. Despite prior coordination, it was not possible. This took a turn for our birthday celebration. No alternative because it is not permitted.

Cozy interior, good service. The oven-fresh duck was quite dry and did not meet expectations.

Nachdem ich die Bewertungen gelesen habe, war ich sehr skeptisch. Aber es ist war alles in Ordnung, Service, Speisen, alles. Es gab nur einen gravierenden Fehler : die Lautstärke. Man konnte sich nur mit dem Nebenmann, nicht mit seinem Gegenüber unterhalten.

Absolutely recommended!!! If you're looking for good cuisine, you've come to the right place. Good wine selection, great and attentive service even when the house is full. Thanks!

A bit like cafeteria food. Goose was ok, but could be better.

The food is just great! The ambience is quite nice, but due to the narrow rooms it is very, very loud when it is at full capacity...

Relatively expensive but very good quality. Roast duck and goose extremely tasty.

Very good food, although the price was hearty but it was worth it. The Kaiserschmarren is always made fresh and was a hit.

Yummy! Homemade dumplings, red cabbage, wonderful!

Disappointing development!! We were satisfied guests of the “Alten Krug” for many years. We regret all the more that a right-wing extremist party, the AfD, is being offered a platform here. A restaurant should be a place of neutrality and togetherness, far away from controversial political events. For us, this development contradicts the values ​​of an open and inviting restaurant business. It is with a heavy heart that we will no longer be among the guests. All the best, ps

Enttäuschend! Das Restaurant voll gestopft mit Tischen eng an eng, der Lärmpegel unerträglich, weil viel zu voll, alle brüllen fast. Ewiges Warten auf Bedienung, um wenigstens die Karte zu bekommen! Wieder Warten um die Bestellung aufzugeben… einziges Highlight : eine indische überaus freundliche junge Bedienung. Das Essen : für den Preis zu einfach- Fertigspätzle, lieblose Teller, sehr durchschnittliches Essen. Ein sehr ärgerlicher Abend. Die Hälfte der Tische, mehr Aufmerksamkeit statt Masse und man könnte den Kunden durch besseres Essen statt Durchschnitt in den Fokus stellen. Hier geht es nur um Abfertigung!

Fortunately, the food and service is and remains 5 stars

It was a very special experience. After we were first told to take a deep breath by a very brash waiter, we waited a good 25 minutes until we could place an order. The food came quicker than the drinks. The roast goose for €38.50 was served with a dumpling and red and kale. This will certainly be our last visit to this restaurant. Such impossible behavior spoiled my appetite and my evening.

Very friendly welcome, nice, super-friendly service. The food came surprisingly quickly and was extremely delicious, especially the half duck. The restaurant was busy for a Tuesday, reservations are definitely recommended.

A really very nice restaurant! Very competent service, very friendly! The food, as I know it from my childhood, was absolutely fantastic! Gives 10+ stars from me!

Expensive and bad. Not recommended

Very tasty, cozy and recommended. The decoration is very nice and the food is very good. A visit is definitely worth it!

Unfortunately, the price-performance ratio is no longer acceptable at all, tarte flambée has completely disappeared from the menu, it is terribly loud. Overrated store. Maybe I'll try it again in the summer, I always used to like going to the Dorfkrug.

The food was really tasty and the meat was really tasty

An outstanding place, great location, very cozy, food fantastic, delicious home-made food, super friendly service (even though it was really packed.) The prices are oh lala.....!!!! We had a great evening in this restaurant. Highly recommended.

Great and cozy restaurant - inconspicuous from the outside, really nicely decorated inside. Great dishes, mostly German cuisine. There is also a selection of dishes and desserts for vegetarians and vegans.

Very good service. Very attentive.

Wenn wir vom Bodensee nach Berlin reisen, kommen wir am Alten Krug nicht vorbei. Die leckersten Haxen, Salate, Soßen...was das Herz begehrt. Dazu ein kühles Bier und alles ist in bester Ordnung. Der Service ist schnell und sehr zuvorkommend. "Berliner Schauze" kriegt man hier auch. Aber auf sehr sympathische Art. Lieben Dank, wir kommen eh wieder.

The Alte Krug is definitely an institution and recommended for everyone who likes something hearty. The menu is so extensive that you can find something, with meat dishes making up the majority and vegetables being more of a side dish than a centerpiece. The portions are generous - matching the prices. The service is great, the team has a sense of humor and keeps their nerve even when things are busy.

Cosy restaurant with tasty German food

Great restaurant, super good food, very nice service.

Very nice sunny beer garden, delicious food

Addendum: The service has improved A LOT recently! It was rarely so friendly. Thank you! —— Very tasty, creative lunch dishes that are often better than the dishes on the menu. UNFORTUNATELY it has happened SEVERAL times lately that lunch is no longer available 1-2 hours before the end. In the past, alternative dishes were offered. Now the only impression is that the cheapest lunch prices are being enticed and the customer then has to order from the expensive menu. After we all got off work early today, the frustration was too great and we left without ordering. Because of this unreliability, my son had to start his late shift without food... This can also scare away regular customers (who came 3-4 times a week)!

Very typical and delicious, but vegetable plates, Maultaschen, cheese spaetzle and veggie burgers are simply no longer enough for me in 2024 if I'm not into meat

The ambience is really great 👍 but the service is not. Very unfriendly, clearly show the customers that they don't feel like serving, roll their eyes, etc. The food went like that, but (unfortunately) we won't visit the restaurant again, even though the location is so good. What a shame!

The food was tasty, but not exceptionally good. The service was unfriendly, inattentive and slow (not at the door, but at the tables).

It's a shame that the service is constantly processing the tables. The same problem also arises when collecting money; the operator probably didn't allow time for a few hospitable words. Therefore only the 3* for service/ambience.... In my opinion the price is excessive.

The selection of drinks is large, but the jugs are small. “Old jugs” are larger than 0.4l 😅 The prices are reasonable for such a popular location, but the staff could have been a little more polite. I was here with a large group and we had a lot of fun, the atmosphere went well with it

We were at the old Krug on a Saturday. The restaurant was really very well attended. Nevertheless, we got a table straight away without a reservation. The service was very friendly and accommodating, just as you would expect. The portions were really big so we were full and it tasted really good. Price-wise, it’s also completely okay. The presentation is very rustic and, in our opinion, very beautiful. All in all, we felt comfortable and in good hands and can absolutely recommend the old jug! Thank you for your hospitality and the great food! Keep it up!👍

Had our summer party there. Everything was well organized and the food was very tasty. We can only recommend it

Very tasty food, session menu, lunch menu and general menu

Historic inn in the village of Dahlem. Very nice, large and quiet beer garden. A separate area is self-service, the larger area is serviced. Home-style dishes are served and there is a changing weekly menu. The prices are quite high and do not always correspond to the quality of the food. The burger with fries from 18.50 euros is not really worth the price despite the Angus beef. Linguini with chanterelles 24 euros, but slightly oversalted. Tarte flambée with chanterelles 19.50 euros. We spent a cozy and nice evening there as a group of 7 people to try out the restaurant. But it stays that way!

Everything was clean, but the toilets could be renovated, but they were also clean

Yesterday we had a family celebration with 17 people and had the Winter garden rented in the Old Krug. Everything was just right: the table was beautifully set, the service was really nice and the food was excellent. Even the weather cooperated! We can only recommend the Alter Krug for a family celebration.

heute besuchten wir Ihr Lokal[ Tisch 102, männl. Bedienung]. Der Befund: Es gab eine Speisen- aber keine Getränkekarte. Der Hinweis auf eine verschmutzte Tischdecke wurde überhört. Die Flasche wurde lediglich hingestellt [ geknallt], es wurde nicht eingeschenkt. Es gab weder Salz- noch Pfeffersteuer. Auf Ihrer Homepage ist zu lesen 'Wir bilden aus' - es waere ratsam, auch älteren Mitarbeitern eine Grundausbildung zugute kommen zu lassen. Bei gehobenem Preisniveau sollte der Gast Mindeststandards erwarten können. NICHT zu empfehlen ! In der Nachbarschaft gibt es Besseres!

I first visited the Krug in 1954 with my Opa Gut he had his lunch beer I was visiting and Opa It looks great just like I remember the place smells the same and the food is great i know I want to come and visit again I only know what my siblings have told me they have as say remembered

The self-service beer garden is just beautiful and all the burgers are delicious. The restaurant doesn't meet my standards, so I don't want to rate it.

The beer garden is beautiful and invites you to linger. The food is decent, but not good enough to justify the prices. One star deducted for that. The service is friendly, but totally distracted and inattentive. Patience is required here. Another star deducted for that. All in all solid. Next time we'll try the self-service area.

Great beer garden with a nice ambience, very good food and, above all, friendly staff!

Very nice and lively place with good food and service.

Super nice beer garden ambience is really great, service could be quicker, but it was also very well attended! But the prices are not at all worth it. E salad bowl almost 20 euros? Really? Soup 12 euros? More upper class level...

We were three people dining here. We ordered one feta salad for an appetizer, one schnitzel, and one pork fillet dish for the main course, and one cappuccino, one affogato, and one crème brûlée for dessert. It all cost 100 euros. The two main courses were perfect for the three of us. We visited on Sunday for lunch. However, I was not satisfied with the service from the staff. The place and the neighborhood are beautiful. In general, I suggest to try this restaurant and enjoy from its delicious dishes.

Very good service and tasty food. Bathroom hygiene could be improved.

The Old Krug is very nice and clean. The food is really really good, but the prices are so-so.

A busy garden restaurant on a beautiful summer day and after five minutes the drinks were on the table and the food was ordered. That something like this still exists. This was certainly due to the exceptionally friendly, careful and original service staff. The garden is very neat and attractively designed. The menu is diverse. A nice destination in Dahlem.

Old Berlin flair in old walls...and you can also endure it in the beer garden. The food is delicious, BUT BEWARE !!! They don't have a star castle!!!

The food and atmosphere were good. Friendly service. Our dog was also welcome.

According to some reviews here, my expectations were average, but they were totally exceeded! The food, drinks and service were excellent, the atmosphere was really nice. Mixed audience, a few younger people (perhaps FU students?), a few parents with children, a few older ones... a totally pleasant mix and atmosphere. Will definitely be happy to come back!

Nice location, service unfortunately unfriendly, overwhelmed.

Nice beer garden with friendly people.

Older crowd. Good food. Usually relatively quiet.

Nice location and the burgers in the beer garden were delicious. The small bowl of fries for €5 was a little overpriced. The main reason why I prefer to go somewhere else: cash only. In 2024, what a shame.

A great area, divided into a self-service beer garden and a full-service restaurant area. It was very busy, so the waitress rarely came by. Otherwise she could have made more sales. The food was good, but unfortunately a bit expensive.
