Altstadtbrauhaus „Zum Stadtkrug“ in Schwerin

Very tasty food... the portions are sufficient and lovingly prepared... nice staff and all in a clean, rustic atmosphere.

It couldn't be worse! Altstadt Brauhaus – a disgrace for the gastronomy! I am simply STUNNED at what happened to us here! What is referred to as “service” in the Altstadt Brauhaus is nothing but sheer impudence! We wanted to celebrate a birthday and had reserved a table in advance, but what we then experienced was simply shocking. As soon as we entered we were greeted by an outrageously cheeky waitress who obviously had no idea what politeness was. There was no greeting, but a cheeky request, "Wait here!" As soon as we had mentioned the huge problem - the unbearable, screaming children's noise - we were told coldly in the face: "Then leave if you don't like it!" So I have never encountered a disrespectful answer in a restaurant! Are you serious, Altstadt Brauhaus?! Despite reservations and the information that it was a birthday party, there was ZERO preparation: no decorated table, no nice gesture - absolutely NOTHING - instead of simply offering us another, quieter place. It was very clear that anyone who complained about the deafening children's noise would be kicked out! We have absolutely nothing against children, but this constant screaming is simply out of place in the restaurant! Children can also learn that a restaurant is not a playground - at least that was the case in the past. Today, some parents seem to have given up on raising children completely, and this is still supported here. A shame! My conclusion: If you're hoping for a nice day without bully "service" and a kindergarten atmosphere, you should give the Altstadt Brauhaus a wide berth. This store is a prime example of treating guests like dirt. I have never experienced anything like this and I really wouldn't wish it on anyone. Save yourself the money and the nerves – it’s best to AVOID this “restaurant”!

Ambience 5/5 Food 5/5 Service 5/5 All in all a successful evening in the Altstadtbrauhaus. Can only be recommended!

Easy table reservations possible via the website and highly recommended in the late afternoon and evening hours. Fast friendly service. We really enjoyed the food and the Schweriner Altstadtbräu dark. What I will never understand, and this applies to the majority of restaurants, is why you don't rely 100% on regional products when it comes to beer? Hefeweizen is also available in the region, so it doesn't have to be carted over 850 km from the Allgäu. Therefore a star deduction.

Today we had dinner in the old town brewery “Zum Stadtkrug”. The staff was super friendly and attentive. The menu offered a varied selection. The portions were very large, hot and super tasty. We can highly recommend the restaurant.

Impossible!! We wanted to drink 1 or 2 beers in a brewery at 8.45 p.m., the place was almost empty!! We weren't even allowed to sit at a bar table on the grounds that everything was reserved, that's what we call customers (un)friendly...Never again! 1 atern is still too many

Very tasty food. Price performance absolutely top. The staff is very empathetic, loving and courteous. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos. We were thrilled

In front of the restaurant, inexpensive lunches are advertised. The only good thing was the salad, the fries had been in the deep fryer for too long and were too salty, and the schnitzel was burnt on one side. The whole thing is accompanied by a bad-tempered service.

Thank you for a great evening with you - the lady in service was great. Unfortunately, we all deduct for the toilets (both men's and women's) 😞 what a shame!

At first we couldn't get a table for 2, we were sorry about that, we stayed outside for a bit and then some people came out from the restaurant, we tried again, it was another waiter, she was more smiling and customer-oriented, so there was room to us. We each got a schnitzel, with braised potatoes, the food tasted really good, we also got a couple of beers.

Had reserved at short notice. Everyone very nice. Food was really good. Service very friendly. We were a group of 17 people. We'd love to come back.

Drinking a glass of wine is too much effort. Service slow and unenthusiastic. Interior old with strange colors. Chairs still covered in rubbish from previous diners. Lamps with a few bulbs broken and crooked. No love.

Really old inn, great food, very friendly staff, always happy to have great portions, reasonably priced

Very rustic, a bit shabby, but the service was great, the beer was tasty and the food was a poem. Gladly again!

Food and beer were great. Service very hard. We'd love to come back.

Reservations were made online without any problems, the food and staff were simply great.

Very nice service, great food and fair prices. However, you should make a reservation as it is very busy

An absolutely great restaurant. Cozy, the service staff were absolutely on their toes, quick and always with a funny saying on their lips. The dishes were plentiful, well prepared and very tasty. Try the fisher's spirit served piping hot! You should definitely reserve in advance (possible online). For people with disabilities: there are steps at the entrance and also inside or to the toilet. The building does not allow for any change. It may be possible to do this with a walker (with help); this should be requested when making the reservation by telephone. Otherwise: great restaurant - absolutely recommended

We were there on a Saturday at 8:55 p.m. When we went in we were immediately told rather harshly by the landlady that the kitchen closed at 9 p.m. It would be fine if it didn't say the kitchen closes at 9:30 p.m. outside.

Anyone who was in Schwerin but not in the Altstadtbrauhaus was not really in Schwerin. Quaint, classic brewery with lots of charm. Service friendly and quick, in-house beer 🍺 absolutely delicious, Prices moderate. We would love to come back, a clear recommendation!

Reservations strongly recommended for lunch and dinner. Popular with groups! The pork tenderloin with salad was tender and grilled just right. The portion was large. You'll be full here. The beef in aspic tasted excellent in combination with fried potatoes. No pork is recommended. The restaurant was fully booked at lunchtime. Despite being busy, the staff remained friendly. We'll be back!

I was here as part of a class reunion with 15 people. From the reservation to the stay in the restaurant, everything was completely satisfactory. The ambience is excellent, as is the service and the food. Good portions at a reasonable price and very tasty.

Ein Brauhaus mit leckerem Bier. Essen lecker und reichlich. Personal freundlich und die Ambiente sehr ansprechend. .

One thing in advance - the food is good! Likewise the service. At least that's what I thought until we just paid. Because we were asked by the waitress, who had been quite nice (and corpulent) up to that point (after she had received our 3 euro tip!!!!), why we were able to give her young assistant a 5 euro tip... with all due respect I alone decide who and how much I tip as a guest! My mother and I meant well to the young girl because she always served us drinks in a friendly and courteous manner throughout the evening. In many years of restaurant experience, I have never experienced why we as guests have to justify who we tip and how much when we pay. Absolutely customer-unfriendly and especially towards my mother, who was really insulting the waitress about why she was “ONLY”!!!! I received a tip of 3 euros in contrast to the 5 euros from the other colleague, a disgrace! Despite the good food, this was our last visit to this restaurant because as a guest I apparently have to apologize for who I tip and how much. This has never happened to us before and is simply absurd.

Wild deer bratwurst with fried potatoes, mushrooms and beer sauce

Super delicious beer and food. Especially the schnitzel with the fried bacon, cheese as a filling and the gooseberry chutney served with it👌

We were here with a reservation with 15 people. There was nothing to complain about here. Service staff super nice and quick. The food selection is very manageable, but you don't have to wait that long for your food. All 15 people were absolutely thrilled with their selection. Only recommended.

Where we were seated smelled like a toilet and stank... otherwise the food was delicious.

Very busy, but service was quick and food and drinks were served quickly. We had a very quiet place in the corner, so you didn't notice the busyness of the restaurant. It was very tasty and the portions were massive! There were four of us and despite 2 rounds of drinks we came to around 130€, which is completely okay in terms of price

Quaint inn. You definitely have to reserve in advance on weekends. Food was super tasty and very large portions. Nice service. Good value for money. Were satisfied 😃

Must visit in Schwerin. We went to dinner without a reservation and, although we went at 6:00 p.m., it was already full. The waitress told us that it is better to make a reservation, but she did everything possible to find us a table. The place is very cozy, almost all made of wood and with traditional decoration. At midday they have menus and at night, at least from Tuesday to Thursday, they have recommended dishes at a special price. So we tried this Tuesday's dish, the hamburger, which was huge and left us very satisfied. To drink we have had Schwerin's "hell" beer, which is available in three formats: small (0.3L), medium (0.4L) and large (1L). They had many other beers, which seemed very tasty. The menu was extensive and has many German specialties, there are vegetarian and vegan options on the menu, the desserts looked delicious but we have not tried them due to the aforementioned satiety. At midday they also have offers on dishes from €8.90. The place dates back to very remote dates, I think 1817 and has a very interesting history told in its letter. They hold many events throughout the year, such as the 90's party, special children's day or the Christmas party. Finally, it is worth mentioning that the bathrooms are at the end of a narrow staircase, this could be a problem for people with reduced mobility. I highly recommend the visit and would return.

Delicious food, delicious beer.

Terrible, the food was burnt and the meat was as tough as shoe sole, no excuses, the staff was overwhelmed, the so-called beer garden, ridiculous, not recommended!!!

Rustic restaurant with regional beer and rustic food at moderate prices.

Typical brewery with delicious beer 🍺 and friendly, fast service

friendly and attentive staff, very good food, great ambience (if you like it rustic), good beer, very good value for money

Price/performance top. I can only recommend this restaurant

Unfortunately we didn't like the restaurant very much. Various dishes fish and schnitzel... more pannade than fish or meat. Dirty beer glass.

I have rarely been served so quickly, so courteously and warmly. The restaurant was full but special requests were still fulfilled. The food was delicious and very attractively presented. We felt like very much expected guests in a big family.

Super great location and courteous and very nice service! The food was delicious and plentiful! Even if the prices are a bit higher, you get large portions! We can recommend the restaurant without reservation!

Super great and delicious food, we had schnitzel with chanterelles and French fries and salad, and veal skin mashed potatoes and fried onions and two soft drinks. I can only recommend this restaurant

A traditional site in the center of Schwerin. Many dishes to choose from. Very good atmosphere and above all: they are very friendly. The pork neck with garnish was spectacular, as was the stout. Without a doubt recommended.

Un sitio tradicional en el centro de Schwerin. Multitud de platos para elegir. Muy bien ambiente y sobre todo: son muy amables. El cuello de cerdo con guarnición estaba espectacular, al igual que la cerveza negra. Sin duda recomendable.

Das Personal ist nett und.bemüht ! Mit dem Essen waren wir zufrieden. Die Getränke wirklich gut ! Leider !!!! Sind die WC für Herren und. Damen in einen sehr schlechten Zustand man musste nicht fragen wo sie sich befinden, der Geruch war stark genug .

Very friendly staff and very tastefully decorated. But boring for vegetarians: there used to be changes (the lukewarm lentil salad and the tomato soup, for example, were delicious), but now it's always the same. My husband and I go to other restaurants now. Too bad!

Delicious food in a nice atmosphere with friendly, attentive service. Clear recommendation.

In dit brauhaus kun je de standaard gerechten uit de Duitse keuken eten, die redelijk zijn van kwaliteit. Daarnaast veel keus uit bier, maar 10 euro voor een halve liter weissen is bizar duur.

Food and service was great. The schnitzel with side dishes was big enough and very tasty. Clear recommendation for tourists!

Beautiful, rustic, traditional restaurant with good home-style cuisine and large portions. The service is also good. One of the best things you can find in Schwerin.

Friendly staff and good food at a good price

We've never experienced anything like this before. The first time we sat on the street and were served friendly and quickly. By the time we were finished, the waitress appeared to be off work. We sat there for 40 minutes with empty plates and glasses and were even ignored by another waiter who saw us sitting there. Only a third waiter cleared away. Then we wanted to give this restaurant another chance, so we went and sat down at a table on the street again. This time no one came at the beginning. Then I saw the display on which the guests were invited to the beer garden. When we went in to ask, there was a totally overwhelmed and annoyed service person standing at the counter. They pointed out to us rather rudely that they couldn't do all of this at the moment. So we went somewhere else and received friendly service there. We'll never go to the Altstadtbrauhaus again. And we weren't the only guests who had this unpleasant experience.

Unfortunately it wasn't possible to get 4 beers from the lady at the counter to quench his thirst. Apparently there were too many guests in the house and a group also came. We just wanted to have a beer. A male waitress would certainly never have said that. It's a shame because the brewery wasn't full.

The bread is crispy, the pork ribs are delicious, the milkshake is delicious, and the service staff is very friendly.

Unfortunately I cannot agree with the positive reviews. I ordered the brewery burger. The bottom bun was burnt and the rest of the bun was very tough. Unfortunately the patty was very unseasoned and not very edible. The fries also had very little salt and were unfortunately almost cold when they arrived. My children's ordered ketchup and mayo were only served after I asked again. The waitress was very accommodating and even introduced herself by name, something I've never experienced before. 5 stars for that The ambience is very nice even though we were sitting at the entrance and someone often entered the restaurant. So it wasn't very quiet I didn't like the women's toilet in the basement. Unfortunately, it almost smelled like a Dixiklo. Nevertheless, I would give the restaurant another chance if I were to be in the area again. But then with another dish 😄

Very nice restaurant in the center of Schwerin. 11 people with different dishes were very well entertained. All the dishes came at the same time and were very tasty. The waitress Sandy, with her friendly manner, was particularly enriching. Her recommendation with fisherman's spirit for dessert was great. Thank you for the lovely evening.

We ate very well with 5 people. It was inexpensive and very tasty. The service was very good.

A beautiful brewery. The staff was very welcoming. The food was excellent and the portions were large. What made me happy was that there were steins and the beer was wonderful. I can highly recommend this restaurant. I thought the venison bratwurst was really tasty. My wife also thought the sour meat was really good, the vegetarian dish with goat cheese was also very good and the classic schnitzel with mushrooms was also good, you could tell that the mushrooms were fresh. All in all, we all enjoyed ourselves there.

Super tasty Brauhaus Sauerfleisch, with a dark... *****

It's still a nice restaurant, but unfortunately the music in the background and the guests as well as the food menu have changed quite a bit towards a very modern and "hip" restaurant. Has lost some of its old brewery charm and the speed of service has also decreased with less staff density (drinks come clearly after the meal). Nevertheless, the old-style cuisine is still very tasty

Delicious food and of course the beer! Very nice service with a lot of time and fun. You should make a reservation - preferably very full!

The lunch special is good value for money. The interior is old-fashioned, the beer they produce is delicious, and the staff is friendly.

Good food and drink in pleasant surroundings.

Unfortunately very disappointing. In the salad plate with grilled shrimp, the shrimp were not grilled, the bread was only toasted on one side or not at all. A lot of savings were made on tomatoes and cucumbers, but they were filled up with even more iceberg lettuce. At a traditional restaurant you simply expect more and, especially at a price of €15.90, you should be able to do it. But the service was very friendly.

Food was disappointing. Ordered salad with grilled shrimp. Half a plate of iceberg lettuce, 1 tomato in small pieces and a few pieces of cucumber. The shrimp 7 pieces were not grilled. Friend had ordered pork fillet, completely overcooked, tough. Totally disappointing.

There were 6 of us in the restaurant. Our waiter, Sandy, looked after us comprehensively. The food was really tasty and filling.

Cramped, uncomfortable, the bruchetta were the worst I was served. The salad as a side dish was incredible, just like a main course. For the money the food wasn't worth it.

Very good food and totally accommodating staff. We felt completely comfortable

The Champion Schnitzel was so awesome that you could have mistaken it for a “real” Wiener Schnitzel: big, flat, wavy breading, tender meat. Only the brewery fries were fries that were very hard, as if they had been in the deep fryer several times. There was nothing wrong with the fillet pan. We'll definitely come back. Yesterday (09.07.24) ate here again: This time everything was perfect and a super nice and very friendly and courteous young man as the waitress! We recommend!

Absolutely satisfied!!!!Great and friendly service. Very quick and attentive. The food was super delicious. Very freshly prepared, hot and filling. And the atmosphere is rustic. Hospitality is very important and lived here!!!! Many thanks to the whole team.

Food was totally over salted, puffed schnitzel as thin as an insole, no taste of meat, horrible salad.

The two of us had a very good evening there. Everything perfect.

In the Altstadtbrauhaus you can enjoy old German cuisine. The range of drinks on offer is very satisfactory and offers a modest selection of delicious draft beers that you can enjoy with your schnitzel. The price-performance ratio in relation to the portion sizes is completely legitimate and provides peace. Definitely considering another visit!

Very good food and very tasty beer!

I can't understand why this brewery has received so many positive reviews. However, I didn't even get to eat. It's likely that this restaurant only accepts large groups that have pre-ordered. The fact is that the rudeness of the gentleman at the "reception" is unsurpassed, unique in the country don't go there on a spur of the moment. I've had my experience several times and although I'm often in Schwerin, I won't go there again

Rustic atmosphere, friendly service, good home cooking, but nothing special for the eye or palate, still recommended

Without a reservation we were greeted in a friendly and welcoming manner. Our waitress, Elisabeth, was simply nice and accommodating. SHE HAS A VERY NICE CHARACTER. Her nice manner and the tips were very good and I've rarely seen anything like that. The food was very good and the dark beer is also recommended. Simply a nice and unforgettable evening in Schwerin. Simply super good.

Cozy restaurant with great food and drinks. Service very friendly and attentive. Order was quick and the food was ready very quickly. Anyone in Schwerin should give it a try. I would like to eat there again and can only recommend it. Price performance is great

Very nice atmosphere and the food was also very tasty.

The Stadtkrug has been a reliable place for good food in Schwerin for decades. As “old Schweriners” we come here every year and enjoy the ambience, the food on offer and, above all, the friendly and courteous service. You can only congratulate the Stadtkrug for this good staff! Walter Brückner

Very tasty food! Definitely again soon. Great shop, I can only recommend it!

Good and inexpensive lunch. We arrived unannounced with a larger group. The service was absolutely friendly and competent. Unfortunately, the only deduction in the rustic atmosphere is the toilets. Partial flushing defective and unpleasant smell.

Delicious food and super nice service!

After many years we went to the restaurant again for lunch. The staff were very friendly. The atmosphere was mega. The tables were set with menu-sized tablecloths. Servers attractively prepared. The waitress gave us information about the daily menu - including anything that had changed or was no longer in stock. So there were no surprises when ordering. The food arrived on pre-heated plates after a short time and with portions large enough for lunchtime. Despite everything, small things can be improved. The wheat you order can be delivered to the table in a glass, which makes toasting with the other guests a little easier. I missed a cleaning cloth or a corresponding request for the ribs. But these are just small things. We were very satisfied and pleased that this restaurant existed on the site. Continued success

The service was very good and I liked the facility. The food was good

We chose the restaurant online for our weekend trip to Schwerin and were not disappointed. We had a very nice table for 7 people, the food was tasty and the portions were plentiful, the service was friendly and quick. It was a very successful evening.

And another year has passed. Every time we are in Schwerin we can't miss the Stadtkrug. Brauhaus Schwarbierburger at its best. We'll come back tomorrow. Great ambience, typical brewery menu and fairly humane, fair prices. Service Laura was very nice and helpful again today. I'm here again with my son for the fencing championship.

It's a shame that you can't share a portion of 2 matjes for seniors, but at least the cash register divides the bill amount between two people, even though they paid together.😅 Then the offer to take away: You might think the chef threw the cardboard box at the service. When I opened the box I thought it was meant for our pet... Maybe that's common in Berlin-run restaurants. Has declined significantly over the years. As Schwerin residents we will never come back!!

A completely overpriced menu, food, I had a salad, poorly prepared and tasted of nothing.

Delicious. Large portions at a fair price.

I was there with my father in April. The atmosphere is rustic and very cozy. The service is super nice. Although our dessert was not part of the monthly dish and therefore actually more expensive, we received it for the price of the monthly dish. Thank you for that. We will be happy to come back.😊

We were very happy with our team. Gladly again

Super good place. Got sausages with braised potatoes. It was excellent. The place was also cozy.

Despite the "vanished reservation" we still got seats. Staff friendly and accommodating. The food is good and recommended. Overall impression very positive. Full recommendation.

We have ordered food and have not received one dish after an hour of waiting. They also messed up our drinks. I am extremely disappointed, however the food tastes okay, nothing too special.

Very nice restaurant, but it doesn't correspond to a brewery according to the menu. Completely overwhelmed and certainly unskilled staff. At the end of the evening, after eating, I unfortunately had a very queasy feeling in my stomach. Unfortunately I cannot recommend it. It all looks like mass tourism.

Delicious food, fast and prompt service that was really on point.

Very good place to eat! Fair prices, good portions and prices. We recommend!

Very good food and friendly service.

Very good food and excellent service.

This was our third and final visit to the brewery. The young employees try hard but make a lot of mistakes. The starters came with the main course... Our food was mediocre (almost cold) Unfortunately it seems like mass production.
