The three of us went to eat based on the top reviews. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with the food. The snack platter was heartless and there was hardly any spread, and the bread and meat were of the same quality as at Aldi. The currywurst was top-notch, which is why it gets a second star. The spaetzle were greasy and okay. The Schwabenteller (Swabian plate) was a complete disgrace: the vegetables were like frozen mix, the mushrooms looked like they came from a can, and the sauce and meat tasted stale. The drinks were all good, but you can't really go wrong... The service was overwhelmed, unprofessional, and rude at the same time. Upon entering, we were surprised that we wanted to eat there, despite the beer garden being half empty. The service was devoid of any courtesy, and instead of asking if you didn't like your meal, you had to listen to stupid comments about not being able to finish your meal, or instead of opening one of the many umbrellas, you had to change tables, to name just a few examples. In the end, we went to Aldi and stocked up there. We find the 4.6 stars completely misleading, unfortunately...

One of our insider tips on our vacation trip, the staff are friendly and always there. The food is a plate 1

Food great, service friendly and ambiance by the lake also very nice

Great food, attentive service, great view of the lake.

We ate there twice this week. And why? The service was really friendly and the food was great. Prices were absolutely reasonable. We'll be back. Thank you.

Great food, very friendly service, and a fantastic beer garden. Excellent value for money.

Very delicious food! Even though the outdoor area was very crowded, we easily found space for five people. The beer was freshly tapped and tasted great. Orders were also quick, and the food and drinks arrived promptly at our tables. Plus, a beautiful location on the Auwaldsee lake – highly recommended!

They are placed. In my case, however, no one came. I left again.

Was there for lunch on Sunday. Service was friendly and quick. I wasn't that impressed with the food. I had the creamed schnitzel with mushrooms. It was really just a thin slice of schnitzel. So small and quite thin. I counted seven mushrooms. I would have expected more. Sorry.

The waitress wasn't familiar with the restaurant's rules. Her answer, "I don't know because I'm not interested," was quite weak! Otherwise, she was friendly and attentive. I had a typical schnitzel. The schnitzel itself was good. Potato salad was served as a side dish. However, there was so little potato salad that I ended up with half of the schnitzel left and nothing to go with it. On top of that, the hefty price tag of €25 is absolutely excessive! I would have been better off with a steak, which costs almost the same. Smokers need cash if the cigarette machine even works. It throws up system errors when paying by card! Overall, an average 3.

We had a very nice evening with great service and delicious food.

We were actually looking for a restaurant ideally located roughly halfway between Fürth and Munich. We then came across the Wirtshaus am Auwaldsee and were extremely pleased. Excellent food, friendly staff, and the location directly on the Auwaldsee is beautiful and quiet. The large outdoor area accommodates many guests, but I definitely recommend making a reservation in advance. We were there for the second time today and certainly won't be the last. Top-notch!

The pork with crispy rind is superb, the prices are average, and the service is excellent. The pond near the restaurant is also very beautiful.

The food was surprisingly good in terms of quality! The portions were very generous, and the value for money was truly excellent. The only thing that could be improved is the covered outdoor lighting.

A truly Bavarian restaurant with excellent cuisine. The ambiance is lovely both inside and out on the terrace, some with a lake view.

We had schnitzel and beef in horseradish sauce, and it was delicious. Our server was very nice! We're always very satisfied.

The food was delicious and served quickly. We were lucky enough to meet a super-friendly waitress. Madeleine guided us wonderfully throughout the evening.

Positive: The location Negative: The food Bread dumplings were a mushy, cold mess (although bread dumplings are considered the coldest Bavarian dish) Currywurst with ketchup from a tube Salad with fried egg strips (2 small frozen chicken schnitzels still frozen in the middle) Dessert: Ice cream with whipped cream, as expected, whipped cream from a spray can I asked the waitress about it, and her words were the conclusion: That's due to the mass processing We won't be eating there anymore

I was here for the first time today. The food was really good, and the prices were unbeatable. Kudos to the staff. We received a really friendly welcome. It was worth the hour-long drive.

We were truly lucky to choose the Wirtshaus am Auwaldsee on the A9. We were on our way back from Austria to Berlin and were looking for somewhere good to eat and drink. We found it here. Great atmosphere, both inside and outside. Nice selection of dishes, and the food itself was excellent! Very tasty and lovingly prepared. Excellent value for money! We especially want to mention the friendly service. We noticed that the entire staff was very friendly and attentive to everyone. There are plenty of clean restrooms. Parking is free on the street.

Great atmosphere, delicious food, very friendly and accommodating staff, good quality. We ate here while passing through. We'd happily return.

Yes, we were there on a Saturday evening in August with four people in the beer garden. Reserving a table is a must; you can easily do it online; otherwise, you'll wait 60 to 90 minutes.

Very good cuisine, nice service

I go here for special occasions like anniversaries or weddings, where I want a special atmosphere. I'm not rich, so I only eat out for special occasions. In my opinion, the food is absolutely top-notch, and the price is accordingly high, but reasonable in every respect. You certainly won't leave hungry; the portions are truly generous. In any case, this is a restaurant I recommend in every respect.

Bavarian ambiance and delicious food. The staff are friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended!

We were there for three days... (as a guest at the campsite 😉 )... and what can I say? The first evening was perfect, the service and the food were simply perfect... the next day we just wanted an iced coffee for lunch, but unfortunately it was already sold out 😱 strange for such a large restaurant, but who knows what happened. Today, unfortunately, there was no cream left for the ice cream, and no iced coffee either 😢 a real shame... such things shouldn't pose any problems for a business of this size in high season, or am I wrong?

A good rest stop close to the highway for long-distance travel. It's sometimes busy, but we've always managed to get a spot without a reservation. Prices are good for the quality.

Very good yet fast food and great service.

This "Please wait here" is just annoying, like in the times of Corona, sometimes you just want to leave.

Staff overwhelmed with larger groups

We hadn't even fully sat down at the table when our dog already had his own water bowl and a few treats. We, too, were extremely satisfied with the service and the food.

The service wasn't the best. Forgetful 😂

Super delicious. Not far from the lake.

A truly excellent inn just 4 minutes from the motorway. Ample parking is also available for motorhomes.

Unfortunately, we didn't get the chance to try the food. We waited with a few other people for about 20 minutes to be seated in the half-full outdoor seating area. Unfortunately, none of the staff had the time or inclination to do this or even provide a brief overview. It's a shame, as the location and menu had seemed promising.

I was there for a murder mystery dinner, and it was fantastic. The waitresses seemed very stressed, but we were fine and had a great evening.

Very good....great food....Thanks to Emil...

We visited on a weekend with high expectations, especially after making an outdoor seating reservation five weeks in advance. Unfortunately, we were quite disappointed to find that our reserved outdoor table was not honored. This lack of organization was frustrating, particularly given how much we were looking forward to dining outdoor on a nice sunny day. That said, the food did not disappoint. The menu features some truly authentic German dishes, all prepared with great care and flavor. Their selection of cakes and the coffee were also delightful — a perfect way to end the meal. The location is another highlight, offering beautiful views right next to the lake, making it a picturesque spot for a meal. It's definitely worth a visit, but I would recommend double-checking your reservation details to avoid any seating issues.

We couldn't make a reservation and had to wait a bit (about 30 minutes), but thanks to the speedy service, we were seated within minutes. The food was fantastic, and the waitress, Anita, was incredibly friendly! The food was fantastic and we highly recommend it!

Unwanted - Unprofessional - Dishonest On August 2, 2025, we were with a group for a seminar at the Wirtshaus am Auwaldsee. We were greeted very rudely by a lady who explained to us that the room we had booked until 5:00 PM had to be vacated by 4:30 PM, and this was supposedly communicated as such. Since the restaurant opens early at 11:00 AM, this was very annoying, as we were made aware from the very beginning of our visit that we were not welcome in the restaurant. During the seminar and the lecturer's presentation, a waitress was taking our drink orders, which was irritating and distracting. Furthermore, the seminar room doors were not closed, and loud music was playing in the entrance area of the restaurant, making it difficult to understand the lecturer. Only after a participant consulted the staff was the door closed. Lunch orders were taken on slips of paper. The meal was served at around 1:30 p.m., which gave the impression of being chaotic rather than coordinated. A cordon bleu was served with such vigor that it spilled over a participant's chair onto the floor with a side dish. Fortunately, the seat was unoccupied at the time. Since paying at the bar had already proven time-consuming at the last seminar, I went to the bar about 10 minutes before the end of the lunch break to pay. The highlight here was that I was asked if I wanted to pay for the entire group's meal. So I stood there for five minutes, even a chef asked me what I wanted and then passed on my previously expressed request to settle the bill to the staff. As the seminar continued, I left the bar, and promptly the waiter came over and wanted to settle the bill in the seminar room. At 3:55 p.m., the waiter started checking out in the seminar room while the seminar was in progress. They constantly compared orders, paid by card, and chatted at the tables. The staff at the Wirtshaus am Auwaldsee should be aware that this behavior is extremely unprofessional and simply disruptive. Not only was our seminar time shortened by 30 minutes, but the billing was impacted by an additional 40 minutes of background noise. Furthermore, one billing statement was incorrect. We left the room at 4:30 PM as requested. A sound check was performed over the room's loudspeaker system, which made it clear to us how unwelcome we were. We were then able to have a few conversations on the terrace in the drizzle. The room had been redecorated (tables moved) and was still unused when I left at 5:46 PM. The statement that the room would be needed at 5:00 PM is completely incomprehensible; rearranging the tables took less than 10 minutes, and the fact that the room was unused until 5:46 PM makes the restaurant staff appear dishonest. Unfortunately, it should be noted that conversations and the clatter of dishes can also be heard through the ventilation vents at the rear of the room. After today's experience, this restaurant is not recommended. They could have easily saved 40 minutes with simple organizational measures, for example, if they had allowed bills to be paid at the bar starting at 4:30 p.m. and not disrupted the seminar. Even then, the room, which was obviously not needed until 5:46 p.m., would have been free at 4:30 p.m. for the 10-minute table clearing process. I won't be back. The attached photo was taken at 5:46 p.m.

We went for dinner today. It was very crowded. Despite that, we still managed to get a seat without a reservation. The service was very friendly. The food came very quickly and was delicious.

One of the best Kaiserschmarrn I've ever eaten 😮‍💨

The food was just okay, but the staff was absolutely awful. What grumpy people!

The food was delicious. It was very busy when we were there, but they handled it well. Very friendly staff.

Very friendly service. The food was really delicious.

Four of us went out to eat and were thrilled. Excellent Bavarian cuisine, well-prepared and nicely served. Thank you for a delicious evening.

Despite the stress, everyone was friendly. The food was delicious.

We come here every year on our way to Croatia, as there's a campsite right next door. The inn makes you feel right at home, especially thanks to the lovely Liba. Great service, and the food is always top-notch. See you next year...

Here you will find a great restaurant with good food and a cozy beer garden.

Great inn 🍻.... delicious food🧆🍖🥗🥨, huge portions and very friendly, quick staff. Plus, direct access to the lake🏞️ and a busy campsite nearby 🚐🚗🛺🚌

Very delicious food. The service was excellent, very fast and attentive. The terrace is very nice for sitting outside.

Waiting in line for a table was definitely worth it! Great and tasty food in a huge portion, very friendly and attentive service, and the ambiance was okay too. If I may make one small criticism: please fill your soft drinks to the fill line and then add ice and lemon to the glass – including ice and lemon up to the fill line is pretty cheating.

Rarely have I eaten soooo delicious food 😋 delicious drinks 😋 everyone friendly 🥰

Went here for dinner. The service was very attentive, quick, and friendly. The food arrived in a very short time, exemplary! It tasted really good! The portion sizes were decent. The prices were reasonable. (As of July 2025) Reservations are recommended on weekends! But even without a reservation, if you're willing to wait, you can usually get a seat.

A very nice place to stay, really great there. Keep up the good work.

As always top and has been for years.....unreservedly recommended

Delicious food, very friendly staff, always happy to come back

My zander was excellent. The snack platter is huge. It's a good thing that they ask if people want to take the leftover food with them. 👍

Today there are five stars, the food was very good and we were served very friendly.

Simply superb. Nadine is a perfect server, friendly, nice. She's so accommodating, you rarely see her, and the five of us were very lucky to have her. Thank you so much, Nadine, and we'll be back. The family with the old man. I always make reservations when you're there :)! Marianne from Ingolstadt

Every year again! Conny is awesome! Perfect service

We visited the beer garden on the weekend, and a waitress who initially seemed friendly told us we could choose a seat. Ordering was fairly quick, as we all wanted schnitzels (2 creamed mushrooms, 1 cordon bleu, and 1 schnitzel "Vienna style"). When we asked about it after a longer wait, the tone became a bit harsher, which we attributed to the packed beer garden. When our food arrived after 40 minutes, 3 of the 4 schnitzels were only lukewarm and seemed to have been waiting for the cordon bleu (which was hot). Unfortunately, the fries on all 4 plates were also rather cold. We complained and were told that the kitchen was flooded and new schnitzels would take a while. Unfortunately, we ate our schnitzel because we didn't want to wait any longer. We agreed that we wouldn't eat there again, which is a shame, because the beer garden is actually quite nice.

We were able to enjoy excellent food, a great outdoor atmosphere, and wonderful service here today at the Wirtshaus am Auwaldsee! We thank dear Inge for the outstanding service! Top! Even though we're from the north, we'll definitely be back :) Recommendations: Schnitzel, any kind - we had the mushroom cream and the Wirtshaus schnitzel. Equally perfect: the chocolate souflé. Best wishes to the kitchen, too!

The real "treasures" were the staff, who worked like busy bees and were still up for a chat even when the house was full. We'd be happy to go back.

Great Bavarian food at good prices, very friendly waiter

Nice place to eat. Unfortunately, it was a bit busy, which made it feel a bit like a mass processing operation. But the food was delicious and the restaurant was beautifully decorated. I highly recommend it!

Very tasty food and lovely staff

We wanted to sit on the terrace and were told we could choose our spot. We were served there. Then, without even saying hello, the owner told us we had to change seats, and we were forced to sit in the sun.

Whenever we drive through Ingolstadt, this stop is a must.

Excellent food! Very friendly and helpful staff! Highly recommended!

I stopped in spontaneously and it was incredibly delicious 🤤 I can only recommend it. Everything was perfect.

The food was very good and the conditions were very accommodating.

The food is excellent and the staff very friendly. The restaurant is a bit inflexible when it comes to customer requests. We'll be happy to come back.

A very cozy Bavarian restaurant. Friendly staff, excellent food. The quality of the food is very good. The price/performance ratio is good.

Great atmosphere! Top location and super friendly staff 😌

Beautifully situated on the lake

The onion roast and the Wiener Schnitzel are a dream

We had a drink there in the evening. The lounge furniture was comfortable and the service was friendly. The prices are a bit higher than usual for the area.

The food was good, except for the fish, which I wouldn't recommend (the fish fillet had too many bones). The service (Ms. Liba) was excellent. We didn't see the restaurant manager! It's a shame/respect to the bride and groom! Better find another restaurant!

Beautiful and very pleasant. Thanks to Andrea for this wonderful welcome and for the way she treated our little Schnaufi.

Very tasty, incredibly friendly service, and the food arrived quickly despite the wedding reception. Highly recommended.

Good food and a playground nearby

Yes! We spontaneously stopped by yesterday on our way to the game in Munich because we found it on Maps. Great place, great food, and really friendly service! If we're ever in the area again, we'll stop by again!

A very cozy restaurant, very friendly service, and excellent food. We'll be back.

Good food on a lovely terrace. However, I think it's better to make a reservation in the evening.

Very good restaurant! I can only recommend it!!!

A truly top-notch, quiet restaurant. The waitresses are welcoming and professional. The food arrives quickly. It's excellent, as is the beer (schnitzel with schwein, torte, chocolate soufflé, etc.). Excellent value for money. Dogs allowed, quiet space for babies in strollers... I don't understand and absolutely disagree with some of the comments: there's indeed a large sign asking you to wait to be seated, and I saw many people sitting down at tables on their own when they arrived. The waitress had to explain several times that it was reserved and kindly reposition them, and some of the customers' comments were inappropriate, in my opinion. Just wait at the sign, and everything will be fine 🤷🏻‍♀️, it makes sense. In short, I recommend it with my eyes closed! 😊

Food was great 👍 the service was also very good ... very cozy in the beer garden

Good home cooking and friendly service

Super delicious food and great service.

Completely happy. It was really great, and being so close to the highway was a welcome change from rest stops. Absolutely top-notch.

We didn't have a chance to rate the food. On May 30th, four of us wanted to have lunch there. In the first waiting area, the lady sent us out to the beer garden. Then, in the beer garden, another lady yelled at us so rudely, telling us to wait at the sign, the back area wasn't open. After such a reception, we lost our appetite. We went somewhere else. She should have just presented it in a more humane way, then it would have been completely fine, but no blathering like that. We won't go there again.

We wanted to go there for dinner today, May 30th, with four people (a family). There's a sign at the entrance saying "Please wait," so we waited three minutes for someone to come. The interior was mostly empty. The waitress told us to go out to the left to the beer garden (also with many empty tables), which was where we were about to sit, as it wasn't reserved. Then we were called back. We were told to get in line again... We didn't want to tolerate this rude behavior, so we left and won't be coming back.

Great restaurant next to the campsite. Klener Martin is particularly worth mentioning. We celebrated Mario's birthday there. The staff were very friendly, and we felt very comfortable. We've been going there for three years on our way back from Croatia. Keep up the good work. We'll be back in August ;)

We were passing through and stopped here for dinner. The service was very prompt, the food was delicious, and the portions were generous.

The food was incredibly delicious. The service staff was friendly and accommodating. The price/performance ratio was good. Beautiful surroundings right on the lake. Highly recommended.

We had a very good meal. We highly recommend the sausage salad and the cheese spaetzle. The service was perfect, high praise 👍👍

Went on bike ride around Auwaldsee, and decided to stop for lunch. Seasonal menu with Weiss sparkle was great. My wife had the Munchner Schnitzel and the flavor was super. We will be back.

I asked for a dish with local ingredients. The friendly staff recommended the veal schnitzel with asparagus and potatoes with hollandaise sauce. Definitely try it, I was happy with it 😋

It's nice there. But we won't eat there a second time.
