Bavaria Alm Herne in Herne

NO RECOMMENDATION! First visit was my last visit: - get cold, hard fried potatoes without seasoning - a little hunter's sauce, lukewarm with overcooked, wobbly mushrooms - breaded pork schnitzel very chewy - Sausage salad had more onions than cheese - Käsespätzle were lukewarm and not hearty

Mega tasty food, good price-performance ratio, large portions, good ambience and attentive service

Very well maintained, great atmosphere

Highly recommended. There were 10 of us there and everyone was thrilled!

If you like hearty and good food, this is the place for you. There is a wide range of dishes at fair prices. Overall, everything was very tasty. The only point of criticism was the overcooked spaetzle with the goulash. But that can happen! The service is very friendly and attentive. We had a lovely evening in a pleasant atmosphere!

Fast, friendly service. Delicious food, good value for money 👍 I found the cleanliness particularly excellent, including in the toilets!!even though the store was packed. Highly recommended - don't forget to reserve ;-)

Cozy restaurant with tasty food for a good price. Not a lot of beer choice, it's all 1 brand and lager

Always a pleasure to spend time there. From the food, service to the ambience, a full 5 stars!!!

Ambiance, food and drinks were top!

Fair prices, delicious food with large portions and a nice atmosphere. In the evening, however, the noise level in the “main room” is so high that you want to leave quickly. Unfortunately, the food took a long time on a Friday evening, but it was still ok.

If you want Bavarian flair and food, you've come to the right place, the staff is quick and friendly, there are enough seats outside and inside, the ambience is nice, you can relax and unwind. The dishes are delicious, there is actually something for everyone. There are enough parking spaces available.

Very nice restaurant which looks like an alpine inn from the outside. Inside you stay true to this line and you immediately feel at home. The service is friendly, helpful and not intrusive. The food was very tasty, although the dessert, vanilla ice cream with red fruit jelly, unfortunately had a lot of flavor. Therefore only 4 stars.

Plenty of choice at breakfast brunch Great and fast service, the staff was very friendly

The food is very tasty and there is a great selection. The staff is very friendly. However, you have to wait quite a long time for food and drinks.

Great Bavarian dishes at reasonable prices

Delicious, beautifully Bavarian. Good service

Very authentic Bavarian restaurant in NRW. Friendly and efficient staff. I love getting some Bavarian beers there with friends.

Delicious food, nice service, recommended

The first impression is very good, everything is rustic and cozy. When I first looked at the menu I thought "oh quite expensive" BUT with this quality and size of the portions the price is more than justified. We will come back and not just once.

Food top. Few staff for the size. Longer waiting times are inevitable.

The atmosphere is really nice and there is enough parking space. We had the mountaineer dumplings. Overall, they were tasty or OK, but didn't blow us away. More vegetarian dishes could be offered. Nevertheless, we would like to come back again for coffee and cake/Kaiserschmarrn

Rarely have I eaten so badly that the dish was an impertinence.

Very inflexible menu and special requests are not implemented by the kitchen.

Super friendly and courteous service. The food was delicious in a rustic, warm alpine pasture. Almost like being on holiday. We were very satisfied and would like to come back. Price-performance is great

It has deteriorated badly in many ways. Too bad.

Just a pleasure again. The map is quite clear but if you know that beforehand...

A special place. A real highlight Many Christmas parties are celebrated here.

Das Haus an sich ist sehr schön. Das wars auch schon. Ich hatte einen Tisch zum Geburtstag meines Partners reservieren lassen mit dem Vermerk "Geburtstag ". Man hatte uns einen Tisch in einer Ecke an der Treppe reserviert. Fanden wir nicht schön. Auf Nachfragen haben wir einen anderen Tisch bekommen. Bei der Bestellung haben wir freundlich nachgefragt ob es zum Geburtstag eine kleine Aufmerksamkeit gibt. Da müsste man den Chef fragen. Eine Antwort darauf gab es nicht. Das Essen, Gulasch mit Spätzle wurde auf einem Teller in Pfannenoptik serviert. Das Essen war sehr schnell kalt. Musik im Hintergrund, Michael Jackson und die Toten Hosen. Na ja...Atmosphäre war nicht schön und der Service hätte besser sein können für das Geld. Wir werden dort definitiv nicht mehr hingehen. In einer Pommesbude hätten wir mit Sicherheit länger gesessen. Die Preise der Speisen für aufgewärmt Essen sind überteuert.

Perfect food and great service. Price ratio OK. I'm looking forward to the next visit

Addendum 2024: Like every year, this time we were in the Alm for a birthday feast. Apart from the unfortunately dry steak and the far too salty dumplings, the food was again very tasty (I 100% recommend the roast and the schnitzel in particular) We wanted to send the two plates back first, but then we let it go because we felt really sorry for the waitress anyway. The young woman (who was so attentive and friendly, by the way) was stupidly interrupted and turned on from the side while she was taking our order. It was really super unpleasant - the older waitress (shift manager?) lacked professionalism at all levels. Very unfortunate. The price has also increased significantly... quality just isn't. Oh well. Maybe next year we'll try something different ——— ***Review 2023*** • cozy atmosphere • fast, friendly staff • delicious German cuisine The only point of criticism: the mashed potatoes (on the children's plate) were unfortunately very salty and therefore not really edible for the little ones - hence 1 star deduction

Great food, great ambience and the staff are great anyway. Again and again!!!

Delicious, typically Bavarian...

Food was better, in my opinion pretzels had freezer burn and no salt on them and the answer was, they always look like that. But I know that's not the case.

The ambience is very well implemented for this type of location. Unfortunately, the food wasn't quite my thing. I've had better fries and fried chicken and unfortunately had to wait a little too long for service, even though it wasn't that full.

Everything fits! Food authentic and super tasty, atmosphere like in Bavaria. And service is really nice, courteous and enjoys the job!

Very cozy location. Good selection and very tasty.

A good restaurant with good traditional cuisine and a rustic, clean atmosphere. Very tasty, very nice staff. Very clear recommendation.

Really great location, with very friendly staff and very good food 👍

Once in a must. Food and drinks as if you were in Bavaria.

Very tasty food. Attentive service without being intrusive.

Very nice atmosphere, service is very nice and accommodating. Any time.

We come here irregularly just to have a “tasty beer”. So far we have always been satisfied with the food and drinks. In my opinion, prices are within today's "normal" range. The ambience always puts us in a good mood.

The food was delicious and the service was quick and friendly. The coziness is a bit lost because the “hut” is quite large.

My alpine hut burger was very tasty and hot, 400g. We had to return the steak because it was only lukewarm...but it was brought back completely hot and was also very tasty. Service was attentive and drinks were brought quickly

Very nice staff, delicious food, just great

So anyone who likes real German cuisine is in good hands here. Was there with my companion, very nice, pleasant and relaxed here. Food came super quickly. The only thing I was missing was the selection of vegetarian food. I only found one dish on the menu. I know it's not smart to come here as a vegetarian...but I would have liked a little more than just one dish. Hence the 4 stars from me. For a meat eater it's definitely 5 stars 😉

It was really tasty and plentiful😇 I can only recommend it. The atmosphere really makes you feel like you are in an alpine pasture.

Very pleasant restaurant for brunch, lunch and dinner. A small downer, unfortunately no changing dishes at brunch. Nevertheless, the visit is worth it.

Were there around 3 p.m. Hardly any tables occupied. I wanted to charge my e-bike battery while we were there. The socket was directly under our bench. The waitress had asked the boss if all the outside sockets were out of order. Highly unbelievable. I was not offered an alternative. Food tasted ok. But saved on the side dish (spätzle). If you want to fill up, you should eat a little something beforehand.

Very cozy place, great decor. Great food and very friendly service. We had the Leberkäs, super delicious. We sat on the terrace, it was very comfortable!!!

Wiener Schnitzel, very tasty. The mushrooms are a delight.

Very tasty 😋 And we had very nice service.

Delicious food and cool atmosphere!

Service great. Prices are okay and you feel comfortable here. It is recommended and next time we will also eat here. Today it was just too warm. People here are very nice and friendly.

Nice and friendly staff. Good food and good prices. There is sufficient seating and parking available.

The knuckle wasn't fresh, the food tasted old and warmed up. Never again

The price for eating 25€ is too high, drinks are another 25€ because no juices or coffee were included. Ultimately too expensive

It was a very beautiful evening

Everything was more than great... the one star deduction is only because there was hardly any dessert 😔😔😔

The food is fantastic and so is the ambience. Unfortunately you sit very squashed at two tables and it is very loud. In addition, almost all guests are allowed to choose their seats freely, but we were not allowed to do this. There were even guests who were allowed to sit in pairs at a table of four. Maybe we should start treating all guests equally here.

Very tasty Bavarian food. Affordable, great atmosphere!!!

Nice atmosphere and very tasty, but the potato omelette from the special menu could have been a lot larger. Okay, the price (€9.90) could have told me that it was a mini portion 🤷‍♀️ Definitely nothing to fill you up...

There is everything you need for a great breakfast.

A large restaurant that gives a very cozy feeling as soon as you enter. The Bavarian charm that is conveyed to you is reflected in the food and drinks. The staff is very friendly and accommodating, and the food is really recommended. A good place for anyone who appreciates Bavarian cuisine.

The dishes are prepared with a lot of love and are super tasty 👍👍 I can only recommend it. And we will definitely eat there again

Food tastes relatively average but good in terms of portion size. The restaurant shines with its drinks and atmosphere. The good-humoured employees definitely contribute to this. Update 2024: I now think the food is better, but some dishes are somehow priced way too high. The atmosphere and, above all, the employees are still great!

You won't get much more Bavarian anywhere this far west.

Behavior is a matter of luck. When we kindly asked for a table for 6 people, we met a rushed but friendly server who referred us to the boss. The boss responded to the request with "You'll have to wait" in what we thought was a derogatory tone... When spoken to, disinterested despite the rude behavior... It's a shame actually - it was nice next door...

Cozy atmosphere, which is certainly even better in winter. The service was really good, we never waited long and Eileen in particular was really great. Food was tasty and plentiful. We are already looking forward to the next time.

Good food served quickly. Very pleasant and friendly service!

Very nice restaurant...were there for breakfast...so far everything was good....only the coffee for breakfast didn't work at all.....totally stale...I haven't had such bad coffee in a long time

There is a children's menu with reasonable prices. Food was good and everyone was full.

Something else is delicious... what a shame! Ambiance and staff was good. But unfortunately the quality of the food is not...

Great atmosphere, very good food and very courteous service. A big thank you goes especially to Eileen and her colleagues.

We were there for brunch. Everything was lovingly and attractively prepared and tasted great. The rustic but modern ambience is unbeatable.

I have always gone there without a reservation and was immediately given a place for myself and my son. The food offering for children is just as good as for adults. Kind regards to Caro - very child-friendly ☺️

Beautiful restaurant both in summer with a beautiful terrace or in winter with a lovingly furnished interior with a fireplace. The food is good and tasty, but not a highlight. The service is very nice and friendly, but often seems overwhelmed when it's busy. However, there may also be a lack of staff. The breakfast buffet or brunch on Sunday is recommended.

Super nice staff, great food, good selection, fair prices. Any time. Reserve as a precaution!

Food was very tasty, Bavarian cuisine

A beautiful rustic interior with a special feel-good character, delicious home-style food and commendable service - a special experience - absolutely recommended :-)

Very nice staff 👍.everything was great, we would love to come back.

Top restaurant. Very nice waitresses. Food great. Service top. Will come again.

Very nice restaurant, very tasty and very friendly staff, the service was great with good advice... Prices were okay... Only for alcohol-free cocktails the prices are extremely high...

Prices are far from good and bad, getting a handful of warmed cheese spaetzle for almost €15 is just cheeky. The selection of food was good but the quality of the food and the portion size were simply not justified for the price!

Enjoy your meal. The vegetarian options are of course limited, but very tasty. Absolutely recommended.

When the weather was nice, we sat outside on the large terrace. Food was solid, as we expected. Service was very friendly. You can visit.

Been there three times now. Always good. Service and the food.

Great, unfortunately we waited 1:20 hours for the food, but otherwise very pleasant and tasty

I've eaten better before. Really nothing special. Fried potatoes tasted like they had been made hours ago and kept warm. For me the schnitzel was just convenient The service was good. The ambience was, as the name Alm suggests, rustic. So 👌 ok Tried it once...that was it.

Nice here and the staff is friendly. We were extremely hungry and the food took a while to arrive. Otherwise all good. I was narrow here and ordered a lion steak. That was too dry for me.

As always, delicious food, friendly, attentive service and a nice ambience.

I deducted a star because half of my husband's meal was very dry. Otherwise everything was great, my knuckle was perfect and the service was super nice. We'll definitely be back.

Had a great brunch. All guests were thrilled. Waiter Jan did a great job. Thank you very much for the lovely time

Food was good but unfortunately very expensive

I've been there several times now and it's always been very good. You just have to be a bit into the Bavarian ambience.

Good food, parking, what more could you want. Rouladen, goulash, where else can you get that?

We used to love going to the mountain pasture in Herne often. Unfortunately, our visits become fewer and fewer, especially in the warmer months. The reason for this is that the large sun terrace is often closed. Because despite the already quite high prices for drinks, the beautiful, large sun terrace was still the deciding factor in staying at the Alm. But again today (May 25, 2024) and on a Saturday with pleasant temperatures and sunshine, the large terrace was closed. And the few tables on the small terrace were of course completely occupied, which is understandable given the nice weather and the weekend. So, like many others, we sadly had to move on. A “no go” for me!

All-round harmonious concept and delicious food. The size of the dishes is also decent.

A Bavarian restaurant in Pott. Sounds strange, but it has worked well for years. Good cuisine, good service and acceptable prices.

Quite a nice atmosphere, but unfortunately the "beautiful" waiter doesn't understand jokes at all, he couldn't even smile at a joke. My cheese spaetzle was almost cold and didn't taste particularly good either. I guess I had too high expectations because of all the good reviews. The meat of the lye burger tasted like frozen and the tuber wasn't really edible either. Too bad for the price. In general it seemed like a lot of finished products were being used
