Benediktiner Wirtshaus Dortmund in Dortmund

My visits so far have been consistently positive. Unfortunately closed in the meantime.

Very good restaurant if you want to enjoy Bavarian cuisine. And of all places in downtown Dortmund. My knuckle was very well prepared. The freshly tapped light beer is also recommended. The service worked flawlessly and the cellar provided friendly and competent answers to all questions about the dishes available in the inn. For me it was a nice experience to eat there. You should improve the ambience a little bit. When it's full there is a relatively high noise level. I can recommend the Benedictine Wirtshaus to everyone.

Thank you for the great food and the very attentive service. We didn't make a reservation, but we had a lot of extra requests because we ordered a dish from different components of the menu. I also ate such a delicious Schäufele...

The knuckle was still cold inside, the waiter made inappropriate comments and the waitress took 40 minutes to come and collect the money

Mega tasty and the lunch portions were perfect. The service was quick too. Unfortunately it was very loud that day because of the stage setup.

I once tried the burger with pickled onions and alpine cheese. To my surprise, it was really good. The fries were perfect and the beer was delicious. Super friendly staff. I'll be back.

Very friendly staff, great food - worth the price

The service here is great! Every detail was taken care of and every wish was fulfilled. The food was delicious, the Kaiserschmarrn was better than grandpa's, and that's saying something! I would like to give more than five stars!

Meine Kritik soll konstruktiv sein und gilt nicht dem Wirtshaus sondern dem Service bzw. der Technik von Open Table! Das Wirtshaus war wie immer klasse! Es lag dort jedoch keine Reservierung vor, obwohl früh gebucht und auch einen Tag vorher die E-Mail von euch OpenTable bestätigt wurde. Es scheint, als sei hier der Support gefragt, da sonst die Gasthäuser das Nachsehen haben. @ OpenTable: bitte prüft und bessert ggf. nach! Beste Grüße Jochen

If you like something hearty, this is the right place for you! Very tasty and good portions, you quickly establish a good rapport with the staff, who are happy to take some time for their guests. The food and the staff take you to an imaginary place in southern Germany. An all-round successful concept that has impressed us many times. We would love to come back!

It is an original and clean place. It is decorated like a typical German tavern. It's very pretty. The food is more than delicious. We ordered a board for two people of vegetables and cheese...spectacular and giant. For dessert, the famous applestrudel was finger-licking good. The beer was also very tasty, we tried some on tap with and without alcohol. The Benedik White had a lot of flavor and was very rich.

Super fast and friendly service

We had a drink there by chance, the staff is amazing... you can tell they still enjoy their job and put their hearts into it, thank you for the lovely evening... we'll be back

So we were there twice this week and in both cases we were put down quite rudely twice by the innkeeper/service manager.. in the service area you shouldn't do that and have a relaxed manner and not stand for "clear conditions".. I was for 4:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. reserved by phone but it was written down as 5 p.m. Since it was quite empty inside and we then jokingly said "we're there a little earlier (4:15 p.m.) but it's not that crowded shouldn't be a problem" the answer was "I didn't say it wasn't possible" in a tone that wasn't appropriate. To smooth things over, we said it was fun. But that too was dismissed in a rather unfriendly tone with “I am in favor of clear conditions”. That was the last visit for us, even though the food and the waiters were good. It's a shame when managers ruin things like that...

Nice restaurant with good German dishes. Very tasty and great staff. Always my pleasure. 😊

There are restaurants that I visit regularly, like this one. The service staff is always very committed and courteous. The dishes are very tasty and hearty. The portions are very generous so everyone gets full. The price is absolutely reasonable for what is on offer.

The food is great, the waiters were probably already tired. Empty glasses are a no go. But after a short notice everything was sorted out. What's wrong is the acoustic sound system. First boom boom music and then too loud. You can hardly have a conversation. It doesn't have to be Bavarian tuba music, but it doesn't have to be something like that either.

Nice service, I was there for lunch and had a delicious salad.

Very, very good Bavarian food, the service is friendly and attentive.

Cozy in winter, shady in summer

The staff are great. The boss should think about how he talks to the guests in stressful situations. Otherwise great place. It's a shame that the cushions always disappear from the chairs.

They gave us completly diffrent recepit on higher amount. When we had complains they kick us from the bar. Very unfrendly manager. Be carefull!!!

The restaurant looked good at first glance, the food was even good, but the service is Turkish women who, when paying the bill, always print 2 receipts, one with an inflated price of 5 euros, and when you then give them your IDs and statements, they pretend that everything is fine and show you the second receipt.

Tried my first European schnitzel here at the request of some local friends. Which was good. One of the others in my party ordered the Haxe Mit Kraut and it was the best plate at the table of 4. Would recommend that above all else! Don’t make my mistake!

The food was amazing, the beer was delicious, the service was very good, we recommend this place

This place became our frequent stop as far as pubs concerned during our Euro 24 trip to Dortmund Staff was really nice and friendly You can find all the bar foods u can ask for and a good list of beer selection

Couldn't taste the food because since we are not Germans, we weren't able to be served

Crazy to ask for food at 21:45 and being told that the kitchen is closed. On a Saturday. While Dortmund is hosting the EUROs. Not sure if there’s no liquidity to finance additional staff for extra hours, if they are not proud promoters of German cuisine or if the owner is not a fan of Cristiano Ronaldo. It is what it is. Made it to the Italian next door and the pizza was as good as in Napoli. After 22! Crazy! Shocking scenes!

A disgrace. The waiter told us the kitchen was closed and they couldn't serve us. They kept bringing food to all Germans all night long. don't come here if you're a foreigner, you'll be mistreated.

Very tasty food. Upscale price range

Great ambience, super delicious Bavarian food - the light Benedictine was so delicious. Nice friendly service and great service overall. Went there quite spontaneously and by chance and will definitely come back again.

Very quaint. Food is very tasty and hearty. Service is very accommodating. We would love to come back 😀

A very cozy inn. The staff is very friendly and they were open to all of our concerns :) The white sausage breakfast was very tasty. We'd love to come back.

A great atmosphere, real Bavarian food. The evening was great.

I've been here several times. At intervals of half a year and today I was very disappointed. Every time I ordered the knuckle. Last time there was less mashed potatoes and cabbage, but today the knuckle was also smaller. At a price of over €25 I expect to be full. This was not the case this time. The taste was great, but that's 2 kebabs and they cost half as much. Think about it...

Good local brewery, in a perfect location! Service great.

Really horrible, if I could have given no stars I would have done so, the meat which is called “Angus” is visibly meat but in terms of taste has the same taste as a sole, me and my friend we try to knock with a piece of the steak and unfortunately we succeeded, I think that cooking it is asleep on the cooking, it's a shame that Phillipe Etchebest does not exist in Germany. And when we wanted to pay we were forced to pay a tip for a more than horrible and mediocre dinner, I don't recommend it except if you are a masochist

Very friendly service. Drinks and food were quickly at the table. Were there for the first time and would love to come back.

Delicious food, friendly and fast service

We were at the Benedictine with a small group of 6 people. We all liked it. Service was super nice and attentive. Food very good throughout! Will definitely come again.

Went for an event by Inter Nations

Really very disgusting food. No soap in the toilet.

Absolutely recommended given the menu, I would have liked to come and eat 2-3 times and the Biwr is also very tasty.

Very good food! Good service and ambience.

The food is as you would expect from Bavaria. Delicious. However, some of the food at our table was cold. We then told a service person about it. However, she rolled her eyes and didn't immediately understand why she should heat the food again. Except for this meal, everyone was satisfied and praised the food. The ambience speaks for itself, very cozy and enough space even for large groups.

Delicious Bavarian specialties served fresh and friendly. Fast and friendly staff.

For us Bavarians, the food didn't have much to do with Bavarian food. The staff seemed stressed and sometimes overwhelmed. What was particularly annoying was the completely incorrect design of the sink in the toilet, where the water ended up over the basin directly on my pants. The big puddle on the floor should have warned me

For the rather high price, very unfriendly staff. Questions about the card are not welcome. Given the price, dishes are more reminiscent of gourmet flavors. The sliced ​​meat could have used a little more salt and a few minutes longer in the pan (partly raw pork). The portions are also rather manageable for a hungry man. When we were told that some of the meat was raw, an espresso or water was offered on the house. Instead of still water, one came with sparkling water.

Ambience very nice. Unfortunately the food was quite poorly seasoned. Unfortunately there is no option for seasoning (salt and pepper). The sliced ​​meat was still raw on the inside, that's not possible. Unfortunately, ordering the drinks also backfired. Wrong sizes and sometimes wrong drinks were delivered. The service wasn't the friendliest either. In summary, we wouldn't stop by again (especially at this price).

good, tasty Bavarian delicacies

Essen wirklich ausgezeichnet, nettes, aufmerksames Personal; aber doch schon etwas hochpreisig. Vielleicht habe ich mich auch ans derzeitige Preisniveau noch nicht gewöhnt. Toilettenanlagen, wie so oft, leider im Keller. Nix für Leute mit Einschränkungen.

Yesterday the two of us watched the CL Bayern Arsenal there. It was relatively empty. Qir had a table with a good view of the television. The service, 3 different employees, were all very friendly, nice and always available for a funny saying. The food, 2 main courses, wasn't cheap, but really tasty. The dessert, Kaiserschmarren, was delicious. However, my criticisms would be that the seating could be a bit more comfortable and cozy and slightly larger portions for the prices would also be desirable. Nevertheless, it was a successful evening in a nice atmosphere and we will definitely come back.

Great Bavarian and Franconian food, good beer, clean ambience 5+

Very nice service, friendly, attentive and ready to have a joke, rustic, nice atmosphere

Sehr nettes Wirtshaus, freundliches Personal und sehr leckeres Essen zum vernünftigem Preis!

Very tasty food, nice service, prices okay.

We became curious when we happened to walk by and were really excited. The food was great and the service was super friendly, perfect. We actually wanted to come back the next day. But our stay was too short and the curiosity for further experiences was too great. But we are very happy to recommend this restaurant and if we are in Dortmund again, we would like to come by again.

Everything was ok, the atmosphere is a bit modern

Beer and food are top… the service is friendly and competent

Large and neat place with friendly and fast service. Good beers, nice menu. A bit boring location, but you're still inside 😀

Delicious food, excellent service!

Super nice service and mega Schäufele🤤

Bavarian dishes and classics such as burgers etc. in a cozy pub atmosphere. The service was also quick and friendly. Prices moderate. Reservations are recommended, but can easily be made online

The food was very tasty and the service was very friendly.

Modern and Bavarian - perhaps a little too clinically styled to give off that Munich tavern feeling. Cheap lunch menu - but I suspect that the dishes clearly contain flavor enhancers. Dear people, that's not possible in a Bavarian tavern. The monks also adhere to the brewing regulations. I had real stomach problems after my last visit - shout out to Glutamate. The service is extremely friendly.

Very tasty, staff super friendly.

It's a shame, but the owner is trying too hard for my money. Cheese spaetzle 20 euros, pork schnitzel 22 euros (not veal). I won't visit the restaurant again. Prices too high. Service and ambience impeccable. But if I have a schnitzel, I don't want to buy the whole place. At the Schanze I can get a schnitzel for less than 15 euros.

Fast, friendly and very tasty. All special requests are addressed without any problems. Gladly again!

Were there for the first time yesterday with friends. Very successful atmosphere, very nice and courteous staff. The food was also very good and everything was freshly prepared. We discovered a new restaurant in Dortmund that we will definitely visit again. Thanks for the lovely afternoon

Nice atmosphere, friendly conditions, if the Benedictine inn is full, you wait 45 minutes for your food (liver cheese & salad). Beer came very quickly.

The service is nice, friendly and accommodating and the food is great.

Sehr gute Qualität der Speisen Freundliche Mitarbeiter.

I don't know if I've ever experienced anything worse. The waiters were annoyed and totally overwhelmed - and also unfriendly. No thought of service, no smile. Our table was only served after about 40 minutes after repeated requests. We waited so long for drinks. Total chaos. We also still had the leftovers/empty glasses from our predecessors. You could tell at any time that you weren't welcome. The inn should look for new staff as quickly as possible, people who have fun and enjoy serving their guests. We ate relatively quickly and paid immediately before no one showed up again. When we paid, the waiter told us not to shut up because he had to concentrate. He had an inhumane and arrogant manner about him. We will never come here again! Terrible shop.

Ambiance is quite nice and clean. The gentleman who served us was obviously stressed that 30+ people had arrived at the restaurant. Appearance was visibly annoyed and unfriendly. The ladies who served us, however, were quite friendly.

Freundlicher Empfang, obwohl wir ein paar Minuten zu spät waren Freundliche Bedienung, leckeres Essen.

Unfortunately absolutely unsuitable for larger events. A hopelessly overwhelmed and unfriendly host. If there are more than 10 people there it will obviously be difficult because the restaurant has an extremely outdated billing system. Despite repeated requests, our table was not billed for more than 30 minutes. When I asked the innkeeper that we had to leave because some people still had to catch their train, he threatened to call the police if we didn't wait any longer. The rest of the staff looked embarrassed by the behavior; The service from the rest of the staff was otherwise ok. In the reviews you can read here several times that one person from the staff always stands out as being very unfriendly. We're probably all talking about the same person here. In another situation, the innkeeper referred to a guest as "kurwa" (probably thought no one would hear that). A very unpleasant experience and I cannot recommend this restaurant at all. There are plenty of other pubs where you can get overpriced beer and not be treated unkindly. Overall 1 star, because even the best ambience is of no use if you are attacked.

Unfortunately, I can't say anything good about the service. I was constantly spoken to in a very unfriendly manner and it took almost 40 minutes to pay. Even the waiters among themselves were stunned by the behavior of one waiter. The waiter who billed us after 40 minutes said we were annoying him... unfortunately that doesn't work at all. We were there with a lot of people, which was also announced... I wouldn't visit the store again.

Unfortunately a very bad experience on February 15, 2024 around 7 p.m. The company had ordered a table and we were the last to arrive. As soon as we sat down, the waiter told us that someone hadn't paid and that this would be charged to us. That was before the table was cleared or we could order. Clearing and ordering was only possible after asking several times and waiting 30 minutes. The service didn't get any better, it was rude and completely overwhelmed. My veggie burger was a taste-free piece of kohlrabi or cabbage. Unfortunately never again!

There were four of us there. The food wasn't that good for this price/performance ratio. With the Geschnetzeltes with Spätzle you could count the pieces of meat on one hand, with the Knöpfli you had to look for the mushrooms. We paid by card and were asked under PRESSURE to decide how much tip (5,10 or 15%) we should give. impertinence. That's not how you treat guests. So it's better to pay in cash. The only thing nice is the ambience. We were there for the first and last time.

Es war alles wunderbar. Leider ziehen die Dunstschwaden aus der Küche durch das gesamte Lokal. Man würde meinen, die Raumlufttechnik wäre nicht eingeschaltet.

Das Essen und die Getränke waren sehr lecker. Sowohl der bestellte Burger als auch die Haxe und das Schäufele waren gut zubereitet und lecker. Wer bayrische, fränkische oder schwäbische Küche mag, wird hier bestens satt.

Really nice and nice service but the food still has room for improvement both in terms of taste and portion sizes

Das Essen ist lecker, aber sehr teuer. Für eine große Bratwurst mit Wirtshauspommes mussten wir fast 13 Euro zahlen. Senf kam noch mit 1.50 Euro extra dazu. Das ist Abzocke - sorry. Meine Knöpfle mit Käse überbacken und Röstzwiebeln lagen bei knapp 20 Euro. Wir würden gern wieder hingehen, aber bei den Preisen werden wir uns das 3x überlegen.

Delicious Bavarian cuisine. Prices okay, nice service.

Sehr lecker und freundliche Bedienung, immer wieder gerne.

Food and drinks are top. Depending on where you sit, the atmosphere is uncomfortable. Very loud and uncomfortable near the kitchen. Service always starts out great, but often drops off significantly. After the main course you usually don't see any waiters anymore. Another negative point is that they don't accept change requests on weekends. Not even the insert can be replaced. Nevertheless, the food is very tasty and high quality.

I found the food really tasty and the service great. However, no one at our table left any leftovers and a few men were still hungry. One burger won't fill you up, so order some side dishes! It's significantly more expensive than in the pictures here (I knew that, but apparently a few of the group didn't). So I find the pictures really misleading. So value for money isn't that great if you don't necessarily feel full. We waited forever for the food, but it was game day and the restaurant was full...

Wir gefällt der Brauhaus-Stil als urigeres Ambiente

Very nice, tasty and friendly staff.

Super leckeres Essen, sehr freundliches Personal und tolles Ambiente, was will man mehr. In der Mittagszeit von 12 bis 15 Uhr, gibt es eine Mittags Karte, zu vergünstigten Preisen. Sehr zu empfehlen. Wir werden wieder kommen.

Das essen war echt Mega lecker wir werden definitiv wieder kommen

0-8-15 Restaurant. Wer schon einmal in einem typischen, süddeutschen Wirtshaus gegessen hat, der wird hier mächtig enttäuscht wieder raus gehen. Ich würde das Essen eher mit bayerischen Fastfood umschreiben wollen ...

Hier kann man sehr gute bayrische Wirtshausküche genießen, jedes Gericht was wir bis jetzt probiert haben schmeckte uns richtig und es gab eine Menge auf den Teller. Dazu top Service. Immer gerne wieder!

Феноменално место, мирно, тихо, идеално за кафу, пиће или оброк у било које доба дана ... Све препоруке, оцена 9/10 ...

Das Wirtshaus hat eine tolle Auswahl an bayrischen Speisen. Geschmacklich war das Essen sehr gut. Auch der Kaiserschmarrn als Nachtisch wurde frisch zubereitet und war sehr lecker. Aber einen Nachteil gab es für uns. Wir saßen direkt unterhalb der offenen Küche und wenn zum Beispiel Zwiebeln oder ähnliches angebraten wurden haben wir es am Tisch sofort wahrgenommen, da unsere Augen angefangen haben zu brennen.

Alles zur vollsten Zufriedenheit. Wir waren eine Gruppe von 20 Personen. Die Gerichte waren auf den Punkt zubereitet und wurden fast zeitgleich serviert. Der Service war top und super aufmerksam.

Wir waren mit einer Gruppe von 9 Leuten heute hier. Das Essen hat sehr gut geschmeckt und die Portionen sind auch von der Größe super! Der Service bekommt einen Stern, da es angefangen mit dem Getränken schon lange gedauert hat, auf das Essen haben wir ohne Hinweis über eine Stunde gewartet und dann kam das Essen auch nicht zusammen!

Sehr freundliches Personal, das Essen war von guter Qualität. Die leeren Teller später sprachen für sich ☺️ ...immer wieder gerne

Sehr netter Service, das Essen heiß und lecker. Alles in allem TOP. Wir kommen gerne wieder .

Wir waren zu zweit dort essen. Die Speisen waren sehr lecker und von guter Qualität. Der Service war aufmerksam und freundlich. Das Bier war ebenfalls sehr gut. Alles in allem sehr zu empfehlen! Gerne wieder.
