Backöfele in Würzburg

Friendly, prompt service. Always happy to come back.

Highly recommended! In addition to the delicious food, you'll experience an unforgettable historic atmosphere here.

Really delicious, price was perfectly reasonable. We easily got a seat without a reservation.

Great place. Wonderful food, excellent service, authentic German atmosphere...this place is simply a delight

Delicious food, good Franconian cuisine, great ambience. Very crowded, reservations are recommended.

Beautiful restaurant with great service and a great ambience. I think the tree in the courtyard is great. The food tastes very good, but the prices are hearty as is the food

Quick-witted, humorous service and great food in a very cozy atmosphere.

Great atmosphere, very friendly and competent staff. Excellent food. Gluten-free food is possible here, the service provides competent advice and even asks questions in the kitchen.

Authentic Franconian Cuisine. A bit expensive

Delicious, regional dishes. Nice and attentive service. Highly recommended!

Were in Würzburg for three days and had dinner there on Thursday and Saturday. We weren't disappointed. Everything just fits here. Food is good, very attentive service and a nice atmosphere. Only recommended. It is advisable to reserve a table.

I come from Northern Germany and wanted a rustic Franconian inn when I was in Würzburg. It couldn't be more perfect! The Backöfele has a very special atmosphere and really good food.

We were there with the company and had a decent meal. The Wiener Schnitzel was great, the Kaiserschmarrn wasn't fluffy enough. All in all, the food was okay, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was appropriate. Home-style cooking and highly recommended.

We had reserved a table for two people in the Backöfle for 8:30 p.m. and were looking forward to a relaxing evening with a high-quality wine. Unfortunately, our visit was greatly marred by the waiter's behavior. Even though we had only said that we might want to eat something later, the waiter tried forcefully to sit us down at the counter. When we politely declined and preferred to enjoy our wine at the table, he became increasingly unfriendly. The situation escalated when we decided to leave the restaurant - instead we were met with aggressive comments and completely inappropriate behavior. What was particularly shocking was the waiter's remark that we "wouldn't survive," so we left on our own. The fact that he then even followed us outside was not only unpleasant, but simply unacceptable. We have never experienced such unprofessional and disrespectful behavior in this form. There is obviously a lack of adequate service and hospitality here. After this experience, we can definitely not recommend the Backöfle.

You can eat well in the oven. The restaurant is rustically furnished. Despite the full tables, the staff was friendly, competent and quick. The food was delicious 😋 and plentiful. # Würzburg # Bavaria

Super delicious food 🥰 Great, pleasant atmosphere. Gluten-free, lactose-free no problem.

Very good place to chat and eat - excellent cuisine, great ambience, pure Würzburg!

I am very upset about the “Cola” that is advertised as “Coca Cola” on the menu. In terms of taste, the “Cola” has absolutely nothing to do with an original “Coca Cola”. This could be a water “Coca Cola syrup” mixture. In this case, I would recommend readjusting the mixing system. It would also be very pleasant if the “Cola” contained carbon dioxide. food was quite good,

Super nice service, THANK YOU. We'll be back.

It's a tourist hot spot but everything is great.

Service was very nice, rustic interior. The food had the taste of “mass production”, so unfortunately it wasn’t good.

Super tasty and Franconian sauerbraten even in a small portion. And because of small... see for yourself. It's a shame that I rarely have to do anything in Würzburg.

Wonderful restaurant. The food tastes very good. Very good wines. Relaxed atmosphere. Nice employees. We'd love to come back.

Cozy, exceptional restaurant. Extremely good food and very friendly service, we will definitely be back.

Back after quite some years. It keeps its pulse. Well done

Simply delicious and great ambience. The boss welcomes the guests personally.

We recently had dinner there, it was a pleasure. Gladly again!

Very nice atmosphere and service also very good. Food ok. I expected more. I'm not a big eater but I was glad I had some soup ahead of time. I was really looking forward to Kaiserschmarrn, unfortunately it was only available for two people. At the same time, I noticed that once two hours had passed, you weren't really being served. We ordered the latest table at 8:15 p.m. to eat in comfort, but oh well. And the prices are pretty steep.

The Backöfele is a super cozy Franconian restaurant, in the middle of Würzburg and yet somewhat hidden in a side street. The entrance through the gate and the first view of the covered courtyard are worth a visit. This was our second time here, we had reserved and were given a very warm welcome. The apple and horseradish soup was a delight. The Schäufele was super juicy and the crust was nice and crispy. My wish to have red cabbage as a side dish instead of sauerkraut was accepted with a certainty that thrilled me. The young lady in service then seduced us with a conspiratorial smile to try the eggnog mousse with raspberry sauce - delicious! The Backöfele - always worth a visit!

Amazing selection of dishes and best service. We were delighted with the whole experience and would definitely recommend it to vegetarians. 10/10!

Very good Franconian restaurant. The food was really good.

Absolute enjoyment! As soon as you walk in you notice that you are going back to an old time... super nice service Eating was a delight Be sure to ask for the dessert menu.

Quaint restaurant with an ancient “yard” or similar where you can dine. Tables and benches match the ambience, some with a slight slant. The pleasant little light comes from candles and a few old lamps. You almost feel like you've been transported to the Middle Ages. The service is great. The food wasn't perfect, but it was very tasty.

Very tasty food, nice atmosphere

You can tell that there is a very well-coordinated team of waiters working here. Super nice and fast service in a full restaurant. Food fantastic with very decent prices. We'll definitely be back. Thank you for the lovely evening yesterday.

You should have already made a reservation. But it was still possible for two 😊 VERY friendly service and delicious food in a cozy, rustic atmosphere!! If I lived nearby, I would definitely be there more often 😁👍

Good address with delicious food. I had schnitzel with salad; But I missed the promised potato salad. 😉 Good Hefeweizen on tap. It is advisable to reserve in advance. As a solo guest, I was ignored for a long time when tables were allocated.

The meals are delicious and the services are great! Very nice experience ~~ Give this store a like 👍

Really love the food and atmosphere here. Thanks to our sever who is so kind and sweet!

We found this restaurant by looking where we could have dinner as we were passing by Würzburg, would absolutely return just for the atmosphere and the wonderful soulful food. Wonderful staff and great experience!

It was a great evening with good service and even better food. We'd love to come back.

As always, great service and delicious food. Above all, the Franconian cuisine with fresh ingredients and great taste always impresses.

Everything was really great. Good Franconian cuisine, it was full but not loud and the service was quick and super friendly. Thanks again for the good evening! ☺️

Excellent! Intolerances are taken seriously and detailed advice is given.

It is a quaint restaurant with delicious Franconian cuisine. The service was very friendly, quick and accommodating.

Very professional young waiter, excellent food, great atmosphere... would love to come back!

Good - as always A typical Schäufele restaurant, especially with foreign guests.

Great german food, there is a variety of options, also for vegetarians and vegans. Great quality and fast service. A great choice in the center of Würzburg.

Today the food wasn't as usual. Apparently the chef wasn't having the best day.

Delicious German cuisine, good service and absolutely great prices

You'll realize why it feels like the Backöfele is fully booked for 100 weeks once you've eaten there. Top food, great ambience, nice team, ideal location. The most impressive thing for us was actually the “layout” and the incredible coziness. Absolutely recommended in Würzburg. (Be sure to call first!)

Great evening, beautiful restaurant, great food, very friendly service, top price, performance, Very accommodating and wonderful help in organizing my celebration Thanks for the help and the great evening

Nice cozy restaurant, friendly staff, slightly higher price range

Totally identical traditional. Great ambience, good service, great food, what more could you want 👍

We were at the Backöfele for the first time on New Year's Eve. The service was outstanding and fulfilled our every wish. The buffet was amazing.

We were here as a group of meat eaters and vegans. The food was extremely good for everyone! It is understood here that vegans not only want to eat salad, but also like to eat good, home-style food! The nut roast is sensational! The other vegetarian/vegan options also sounded very good! We'll definitely be back! A small point of criticism, the vegan gravy could be a little spicier and richer! But it was 100% homemade and not a finished product! Ambience and service were 10 out of 10!

Very tasty and very good value for money. The Kaiserschmarren is a dream.

I trusted the positive reviews and was unfortunately disappointed. The ambience is super nice, rustic and atmospheric. Unfortunately, the food wasn't my cup of tea at all: the chestnut soup was too sweet, the potato salad was very margarine-heavy and some had raw potatoes. The horseradish sauce in the wedding dish tasted bitter. The service varies depending on the person from very good to okay. Too bad. The atmosphere and furnishings of the restaurant are really fantastic, the food is absolutely great and the service is very friendly and accommodating. We felt absolutely comfortable right from the start and will definitely be back soon!

Visit there was a flop, service less customer oriented, food was also to be desired, overrated! Unfortunately I can't recommend it🤷

Very good food, attentive service.

The atmosphere in the Backöfele is, as always, extremely appealing. The cozy and stylish interior creates a welcoming atmosphere in which you can look forward to a good meal. Unfortunately, this time our visit did not live up to the expectations we have of a restaurant of this class. Two of the three dishes ordered were served lukewarm or cold. The handling of the Cordon Bleu was particularly disappointing: after the complaint, the same food was brought back to us, but the fried potatoes were cold again. Even after a third attempt, the dish was just reheated instead of freshly made. At a restaurant like Backöfele, I would have expected the dish to be completely new and carefully prepared. The Kaiserschmarren, which has always been a highlight, was also partially cold this time. Normally it is served fresh and warm, which unfortunately wasn't the case this time. Unfortunately, the quality of the food and the handling of complaints did not justify the high prices that evening. I very much hope that this was an exception and that the service and cuisine can return to the usual quality next time. It would be nice if the restaurant took this criticism to heart, because the potential and quality so far deserve to be continued.

Very nice restaurant with Franconian cuisine

We had a cozy dinner with 13 people including 1 wheelchair user. The starter was already ready, drinks were served quickly, main courses and dessert were very large portions, but very tasty. Very friendly service, cozy atmosphere, price/performance impeccable. Recommendation

I was born in Würzburg and have eaten here many times. Hence the anticipation that we will be going to the Backöfele during our home visit this year. Unfortunately we had to wait over an hour for the starter, which didn't come - was it forgotten?! or simply the main courses were already brought to the table. There was no apology etc. Unfortunately, the food was nothing special and at a price of almost 30 euros it was absolutely not justified. I asked for a soup and a main course “to go” and was told that if I didn't have a container for soup with me, it wouldn't work. When I then said, OK, I'll just have the main course, it was brought to me 5 (!!!) minutes later, wrapped in paper and therefore completely soggy before I had even left the restaurant. For dessert, I asked for a cappuccino with milk alternatives and was looked at as if I was asking for kryptonite. We are in 2024, a cow's milk alternative is not rocket science. Not even in Würzburg! All in all, the evening was an unsatisfactory experience!

Very tasty food, great service. You have to reserve early and it is very crowded there.

We received a warm welcome, even though we were a little early and our table wasn't ready yet. However, that wasn't a problem because we discovered the beautiful, hidden bar inside the restaurant - a real eye-catcher! The drinks menu is extensive and leaves nothing to be desired. After about 15 minutes of enjoying our drink in peace, we were escorted to our table. And what followed was simply extraordinary! This economy is truly something special. The food is on another level – incredibly delicious and prepared with so much love. We travel from Ingolstadt specifically just to dine here. The Kaiserschmarrn is an absolute highlight! The service was also excellent: always friendly, attentive and with a charming dose of humor. An all-round successful experience that we would repeat at any time!

We were looking for a rustic place to eat and with Backöfele we made the best decision ever. The ambience on site was really nice and the service was really courteous and nice! The food was delicious and we were very full. I would advise making a reservation as it was very busy in the evening. All in all it was a lovely evening and I can only recommend the restaurant! Cash and card payment possible.

We managed to get a table without a reservation. The food was authentic and very tasty. We particularly liked how confidently allergies and intolerances were dealt with. The warm and attentive service from waiter Jan rounded off the positive experience!

Like every time I eat there, 100% satisfied. The Kaiserschmarrn is the best for me.

The ambience is extremely enchanting, the covered, historic inner courtyard in particular really makes an impression and is therefore perfect as a tourist destination to stop off. The operators and staff are courteous, very professional and are open to special concerns and have the motivation to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Seats should be reserved, especially on weekends at lunchtime and in the evening, as the rush is quite large. The food is extremely good and the price is fair, but the drinks could be a little better. Nevertheless - more than deserved - 5 stars.

Beautiful like every year. It has been our Christmas tradition for many years to go there Jin after the Feuerzangenbowle at the Christmas market

Lovely family experience: the table service was excellent and the cuisine was really top notch. The waitress who took care of us was very friendly and fast. The dishes, copious and well cooked, are flawless. Small downside when we arrived when we were received by a waiter who was visibly annoyed that we were in the passage in the middle of service: we arrived on time and our table was not ready. Or could we wait since the restaurant was full? Finally, very high prices (fortunately it’s good)

Very good food. Nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. We can only recommend this restaurant. Everything is right here.

Traditional Franconian restaurant. We didn't have a reservation but still got a spot. Reservations are recommended during peak times. We had the Schäufele and were thrilled. Meat was crispy, very tasty sauerkraut and dumplings. There's even extra sauce. Smooth beer and delicious fruit brandies rounded everything off. We would have to share the very tasty apple cake😉 The bill is certainly a bit more expensive, but it was worth it. Very nice and quick service. Gladly again.

First of all, many thanks to the nice waitress who assigned us a table despite a "failed" reservation. We sat in the cozy, Christmas-decorated courtyard. Fast and friendly service and we also really enjoyed the food. Clear recommendation, we would be happy to come back. Small note: the toilets could do with a renovation

A beautiful restaurant, very nicely decorated. Great atmosphere

Extremely good restaurant, found it spontaneously and asked if there was room for two people for dinner. Drinks came quickly, food came hot and quickly. The Cordon Bleu was well filled with a delicious cheese. The potato salad was absolutely perfect. The onion braise was buttery soft, the dumplings had a perfect consistency and the sauce completed the dish - It was absolutely delicious and praiseworthy. The waiters were all attentive, competent and quick. A young gentleman with golden curls looked after us at the table; he was quick and courteous. The evening's praise goes to him for the service.

The pub is okay, nothing special. Franconian cuisine is disproportionately expensive to the abundance of plates. The place is crowded, but there are plenty of tables and there is a chance to get a seat. The dishes arrive shortly after ordering.

Because of the positive internet reviews, we chose the Backöfele and we were not disappointed. The atmosphere and furnishings of the restaurant are really fantastic, the food is absolutely great and the service is very friendly and accommodating. We felt absolutely comfortable right from the start and will definitely be back soon!

The food is super delicious and the Kaiserschmarrn is a revelation!

A quaint restaurant with friendly service and delicious food. The price level is reasonable, but the Backöfele is not cheap. The portions are generous. We had perfectly served asparagus with zander and potatoes as well as Schäufele. The sauerkraut was extremely good, not too sweet and not too sour. The dumplings were also very tasty. The meat too. We would stop at the Oven again, especially since they serve something to eat quite late.

10/10 Service and food are perfect. It is a pleasure to dine there every time.

We were a group of 14 people. The food was very tasty, and the vegetarian nut roast was also sensational.

Only recommended. Nothing works without a reservation. The Schäufele... a poem! Excellent, attentive service!

We can only agree with the positive reviews. The service is super nice and attentive! We only ate one Kaiserschmarren there, but it was by far the best we have ever eaten! Simply a pleasure! The restaurant is also really rustic and cozy… an absolute top address in Würzburg!

Seat in the middle of the flight path. Uncomfortable sitting with 20-30 people standing next to you waiting to get in. Uncomfortably dark and loud. Food itself was completely ok.

A very loving and beautifully decorated restaurant. You should definitely make a reservation in advance. That was just great. The service was great. Courage the snails

Great restaurant! Delicious typical dishes, welcoming and refined atmosphere, kind and attentive staff Absolutely recommended!

Very rude greater. Many open tables, said they were full. Guess they didn't tourists. Atmostphere looked nice, what a shame.

The ambience cannot be compared!!! Beautiful! Service was world class too! Unfortunately, the food wasn't that well seasoned but was still delicious

I can't judge the food, it didn't even get that far. We wanted to reserve a table for 2 3 days ago, the friendly employee on the phone told me that everything was already full. But if we get past the off-peak times it works, no one is sent away hungry. When we arrived today at 5 p.m.!!!! We were turned away immediately because we didn't have a reservation - some of the tables were still free for at least 2 hours. I just find this inflexibility terrible, that's why this rating is given. Customer service is just as important as anything else!

A very cozy inn with a rustic atmosphere and an emphasis on local Franconian cuisine. Table reservations seemed to be required. Very well and professionally organized. Food was very tasty and service was very friendly and quick.

Good home cooking and good portions. The service is very well organized. Thank you

Delicious food. Had a complaint about an insert. It was replaced without any problems and as compensation there was a dessert (Kaiserschmarrn) for 3 people for free, as well as an apricot for each (there were 8 of us). Service was very attentive even though it was busy. It was a great evening

Great restaurant, extremely tasty dishes (I had venison goulash myself), the atmosphere is very harmonious, I would eat here again at any time. Top!

The store is nice, the food is okay, the employees are unfriendly and profit-oriented. doesn't have to happen again.

We were there in a group. Ambience great, food ok but expensive. But the service was inadequate and unfriendly. We were there last time

With our own 30 years of catering experience, here are a few points: 1. Reservation possible for only 2 hours. 2. Calculation of turkey steak and cordon bleu should be reconsidered. 3. Potato cookies were served frozen on a hot plate. The entire table received a schnapps, the manager made the selection. 4. The consistency of the hollandaise sauce was like cooled vanilla pudding, flavored too lemony. 5. The liver dumplings from the soup were not gray (like boiled liver) but cream-colored like marrow dumplings and tasted like that. 6. The cordon bleu was dry, still edible. 7. A colleague wanted to buy a round of drinks, was rejected by the waiter and could not be billed. 8. The General Terms and Conditions...: Individual billing is not possible for groups of 8 or more. We were 7 people. I argued about it with the manager until we both raised our voices and then did the individual billing myself. My personal conclusion: 1st visit about 3 years ago, everything was fine. 2nd visit yesterday, November 29th, nothing was wrong. There will no longer be a third visit. There's another way to feel good and leave your money there at overpriced prices.

Very cozy rustic restaurant. Franconian cuisine. Map tip-top, prices okay, good portions and service friendly and on the ball. Another lovely and cozy evening.

Very unfriendly on the phone, if reachable at all
