Bischofshof am Dom in Regensburg

We had lunch at the Bischofshof with visitors from Upper Bavaria. The white sausages were lukewarm. The shoulder of pork was almost cold. The pretzels and bread were stale. The Kaiserschmarrn was dry and not crispy, only somewhat edible with lots of apple compote. Very sad for such a renowned restaurant. We won't go back alone, let alone with visitors.

We were turned away due to "staff shortages" because we were a group of seven who "just" wanted a drink. The rejection was very rude and in no way reflects the good reviews. Never again!

We went there to eat something, it was delicious and reasonably priced.

Restaurant area: We arrived at the restaurant around 8:30 p.m. and wanted a drink. We waited to be seated as directed on a sign at the entrance. A waiter walked past, then a waitress, then back again, and then to the counter where two more employees were. We weren't given a word or any further attention. After a few minutes, we left again; it was very rude.

It tasted great. My choice was the goulash with spaetzle. A very nice beer garden in the back courtyard. Attentive and friendly service. 👍🏻

Restaurant: Nice ambiance - lousy food (Wiener Schnitzel of Veal + Fried Pike-perch Fillet on Pesto Cream Tagliatelle)

Nice beer garden with friendly service. The food was very good.

Very good hotel, located right in the old town. Great breakfast and a very good restaurant.

We were here a few days ago just for dinner. Both the food and the service were excellent. We really enjoyed the restaurant and would definitely come back.

The food is delicious. Service is top-notch.

Cozy atmosphere in a picturesque courtyard, attentive service, authentic, a great experience. Five stars. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We were allowed to use the toilet despite the guests only sign. Thanks !

A wonderful hotel with an upscale atmosphere, centrally located, beautiful rooms, and always attentive, friendly service. The attached beer garden is very busy, but quiet after 10:00 PM. Delicious dishes and a changing daily menu.

Good atmosphere that can't overcome the bad service.

Unfortunately, my friends and I got the most unfriendly waiter. Our stay in this establishment was also marred by a swarm of green flies and wasps above our table (by the way, other visitors had the same problem).

Great food and service first class

Didn’t get the chance to try the food. While many of the severs were polite and friendly our waiter didn’t even look us in the face and was very rude speaking to my children. I hope to come back some other day and have more than a glass of water as the food looked great.

"An evening of pure enjoyment at the Bischofshof Regensburg" As part of a family celebration, we were privileged to spend an unforgettable evening in the venerable walls of the Bischofshof in Regensburg. The food was – as always – a delight, and the service was impeccable until the early hours. Hats off and a heartfelt thank you to the entire team – we'll definitely be back! #HubertWartner

We were in the beer garden. The staff didn't approach us, but we had to make sure our presence was noticed. The sausage salad tasted completely off, and the bread was from last week. The guest at the next table had the same experience; another guest complained because the waiter stopped serving her. About 20 guests and three staff members—should that really be manageable?

Rustic beer garden in the middle of Regensburg

Good, home-style food Very nice interior

Great hotel, fantastic food! Great location in Regensburg. Highly recommended! The beer is fantastic, with a super fruity hoppy flavor. Luckily, they serve it by the liter!

We had lunch at the restaurant, in the outdoor square! The place is really beautiful, the service and food are excellent! We really enjoyed it!

On a small square next to the Cathedral. Cozy interior. Excellent food and friendly service.

It was a Saturday, and we had booked a family reunion at the restaurant, but we weren't allowed to drive into the parking garage. After a long search, we had to park our car in another garage.

Perfect location in the cathedral courtyard. We had a reservation, received a friendly welcome, and were given a nice table overlooking the bishop's chambers. The selection was good; we had an appetizer and then the shoulder of pork, which was very tasty and filling. We had a pleasant evening with good food and wine. Highly recommended; we would go again.

Very nice restaurant, very tasty food and the service very friendly

Had a chance to visit in early August 2025. The hotel is an old castle style, located right in the old town, next to St. Peter's Church. The rooms are neat, clean, and have a minimalist design. The dining area is located next door. The beer is good, the food is not very good, the breakfast buffet has few dishes and does not change. If you like beer, you should go to the beer bars around the church for better beer and food.

Super delicious and varied food, pleasant atmosphere, very beautiful and well-kept courtyard, very friendly staff, highly recommended

We had ice cream and cake there in the afternoon. It was delicious and reasonably priced. There was free tap water for the kids.

We only went there for local ‘traditional food’ and beer. The seater guy wasn’t kind at all, no hi or nothing only asked what we were looking for. We said ‘we are hungry’. He took us to a table, then a muslim guy dressed as a German barman (with no judgmental attitude) picked up our orders. Food was okay, far from a top rated quality. You could feel that they don’t like their English speaking guests. 2 different English/ American group left the restaurant just the time we were there. They didn’t served them. They called the manager (probably polish woman) but she let them go without sorry. We had to wait 45 minutes for the bill. The German dressed guy wasn’t kind very angry he had to come back to us, even though I put €5 in his palm. He didn’t say thank you or buy… In the heart of the old town, beautiful place… but the attitude is not welcoming at all. We had the meal what was okay so we tried, tick and go - next time somewhere else. I’m bored these places where the waiters are above the guests kinda like boss- employee relations. No thank you. And as I mentioned 2 round of English group left them behind, if I was you who want to visit there would say NO. The building is stunning but that has nothing to go with the people who are working there.

We went there for dinner with four people. The service was very friendly and attentive. The food was delicious and generously portioned. I definitely recommend it.

Very nice and friendly service, good, home-style food.

Man, man, man... My friends and I are sitting at this table, and people are constantly making rude comments. This is completely unacceptable! We're 16-17 years old and we're being called little kids. Never again! The service is terrible, everything is terrible...

The worst service I've ever encountered.

A strange experience in Regensburg. I'm referring exclusively to the restaurant, and here only to the "service." We've never been served so unfriendly and poorly. In the end, a "compulsory tip" was automatically added to the card payment. They say that's the way it is with certain foreign credit cards. To be fair, we were eventually refunded the "tip" in cash. Another waiter loudly called out to a woman who was leaving the restaurant after apparently being ignored for a long time. Perhaps several people were having a bad day, but we're no longer attracted to this otherwise beautifully located restaurant.

We've now eaten in the beautiful courtyard twice. We were particularly impressed by the extremely friendly staff. The food was excellent; we had, among other dishes, the delicious roast pork with potato dumplings, various salads, and the minute steak with cheese spaetzle. Tip: the Gröstl should be slightly toasted.

The food was good, with one exception! The service was good too, although the waiter was stressed due to a lack of staff. We understand that, but we don't want to be constantly subjected to this.

Visit to the Regensburg Cathedral, which is covered in scaffolding.

Wir wollten mittags für Abends für 2 Personen im Biergarten reservieren, was nicht angenommen wurde, da immer genügend Platz sei. Um 18.00 wurden wir unfreundlich und herablassend offensichtlich vom Chef begrüßt, der uns lediglich den ungedeckten Katzentisch unmittelbar am "wait to be seated " Stand zuwies. Unsere Nachfrage, ob im doch so grossen Biergarten woanders noch Platz sei, wurde brüsk verneint, wir hätten ja jetzt einen Tisch. Wir sind dann gegangen und haben im Roter Hahn bei freundlichstem Service gespeist.

I was a guest in the beer garden yesterday and was very pleased with the service. The drinks and food were very good! I'd love to come back!

Sabrina Franz and Etschi were exactly as you would want to be treated as a guest, very friendly, quick, you could also feel that they are a close-knit team, the food was excellent, we will be back

The hotel room was comfortably furnished and large enough for a single room. Everything was very clean and tidy. The food in the beer garden was good. The beer, both Bischofshof and Weltenburger Dunkel, were very drinkable and wholesome. The staff were prompt and always friendly. So why only 4 stars? I had a room on the first floor at the end of the corridor and frequently had problems with the room below. It was a nice stay, and I would book at this hotel again.

Thank you for everything. The central location was great. The breakfast and food were perfect. The staff was very friendly and very helpful with the group photo. We enjoyed the weekend.

The bathroom is a bit dated, but everything is nice and clean. The rooms are large and decorated in a nostalgic style. The great location behind the cathedral and the proximity to the Danube are another plus. But the best part is the delicious food, the super-tasty beer, and above all, the friendly, attentive staff. Great beer garden, and on Sunday there was even live modern brass music 👍👍👍👍👍👍

It was a nice restaurant with good atmosphere, service and food. There were many dishes to choose from. Recommended.

I stayed at this hotel and I'm delighted! Clean and classy, great location, and friendly service. Delicious breakfasts and parking. I recommend it.

The price-performance ratio is good. The beer and homemade lemonade are highly recommended.

Very satisfied, delicious food, nice service 😋☺️

The hotel is highly recommended

A very nice hotel in the heart of Regensburg's old town. The rooms are lovingly furnished, although some areas are a bit dated. But that's okay; it's part of the charm of this old building.

Tolles Hotel mit sehr schönen Zimmer, direkt neben dem Dom gelegen. Die Zimmer sind mit einem gemütlichen Bett ausgestaltet. Das Bad ist mit einer tollen Regendusche ausgestaltet. Die Zummer verfügen über Aircondition

Great hotel. Everything is right here.

Good food. Very friendly service. Definitely recommended.

Yes, highly recommended! Great central location, fantastic beer garden, top-notch service.

The service is great. The underground car park has two levels, and there are also a few parking spaces outside. The room is large and clean with an equally large bathroom. The proximity to the historic city centre is a huge advantage. The restaurant and brewery located here are very pleasant. The food is very tasty and the beers have the right depth of flavour. Great service in the premises.

The beer garden is quiet. The food and service are top-notch.

Enjoyed a lovely lunch. Very friendly service. Absolutely fantastic.

It's a hotel that provides everything you need. Beautiful construction and maintenance.

The Bischofshof Restaurant, located directly next to the majestic Regensburg Cathedral, is a true gem of Bavarian hospitality. The location alone is fantastic; the proximity to the cathedral makes for a wonderful place to linger. But what's truly impressive is the overall package: outstanding Bavarian cuisine, warm service, and excellent beer. The dishes are authentic, lovingly prepared, and a true highlight in terms of taste. From hearty classics like roast pork with dumplings to seasonal specialties, every fan of Bavarian cuisine will find something to their liking here. The service is equally positive: The staff was consistently friendly, attentive, and courteous—you simply feel welcome. The excellent beer from the Bischofshof brewery, served freshly tapped and at the perfect temperature, complements every dish perfectly. In short, the Bischofshof is a place you'll gladly return to. Whether you're a local or a tourist, if you want to enjoy Bavarian cuisine in a historic setting, this is the place for you. I'd definitely be happy to come back!

We visited the restaurant for a business lunch. It primarily serves home-style, local cuisine. The staff was very friendly and the food was delicious; overall, I recommend it. I can't say much more about the rooms.

I didn't stay overnight, but I did have dinner in the beer garden. It was delicious (Schäuferle). The regional beer was also tasty. Friendly staff and fair prices.

Superb delicious food and their service is awesome

I was just there to eat while my friends were at the Jahn Regensburg game. Orderly.

Although the restaurant was recommended to us by several people, we were very disappointed. The food came very quickly. Often a sign of mass processing and that's how it was. The Schäuferl was not crispy but dry. The breading of the Wiener Schnitzel was soggy and the schnitzel itself was not thin, but wafer-thin. And unlike usual there was only one schnitzel. You could see that the potatoes had been in the water for a long time. Only the dumpling and the sauce from the Schäuferl were good. A little bit for around €70

Tolle Lage in der Stadt, der Biergarten im großen Innenhof mit prima Beschattung, trotz der Größe relativ ruhig, freundliches Personal, das auch bei Ansturm ruhig und gelassen bleibt, auch für unsere Dackel wurde super gesorgt, umfangreiche Karte, wir haben uns für Wurstsalat und Radler entschieden, war lecker, immer einen Besuch wert!

I had the steak "Graf von Wartenberg" - a sonorous name. Unfortunately, the dish didn't live up to its name. It was small and very dry, it seemed to me that it had been baked for the second time. The side potatoes were also dark brown and over-fried. My companion had a wonderful Schäufele which I was allowed to try. The meat was so tender it fell off the bone. The portion was decent. Why are there such big differences in quality?

Perfect hotel for visiting Regensburg. Ancient but modernly equipped structure. Absolute attention to the customer. Private parking

We were visiting Regensburg and strolled through the old town until we felt a little hungry. Where do you go? Asian? Nope! Italian? We were just there yesterday! So where then? You also want to try good cuisine and not just any snack bar. In short, as we strolled past, we stopped straight into the Bishop's Court. Weather was sunny at 14 degrees, so great for the beer garden. We were seated by the waiter. Card comes, decided on Schäufele and that was the right choice. We shared the dish because we had a dinner date that evening. But that was totally fine. The Schäufele was succulently braised and had the finest crispy crust. The sauce was divine and combined with the dumpling I could have continued eating until I had a food coma. A light beer was drunk. That gets deductions. This is probably the Jever of the bright ones. Very tart on the palate and the bitterness is very present. After the third sip it works, but it's not to my liking. So for good home cooking in a harmonious atmosphere, the Bischofshof is definitely recommended.

Amazing experience, very nice team, superb junior suite, great food at the restaurant… i really recommend this place !

Yes, very great atmosphere, very nice service, great food

Good food, very nice beer garden. Service staff seemed very stressed. Friendliness is missing.

_Evaluation of the restaurant_ The location is good as it is right next to Regensburg Cathedral. It's a traditional Bavarian restaurant, but you can only choose from the afternoon menu, so I ordered Thai curry, goulash, sausage salad, and beer and water. It's a traditional restaurant, but I didn't really feel the tradition;;;; The waiters are not friendly. I like the atmosphere and the medieval interior design. However, it would be best not to expect good food or service; Oh, the goulash and Thai chicken curry are worth eating.

Short stop for two cold beers in the great courtyard! Service very friendly.

I only rate the restaurant here and not the hotel We were only there for dinner yesterday afternoon, Firstly everything was going well until we got our food, My friend and I both ordered cheese spaetzle but the waitress brought us normal spaetzle with sauce. When I asked her about it and said I had ordered cheese spaetzle, she assumed that I had said spaetzle and sauce. 1 plus point: she still offered to bring me cheese spaetzle but I didn't want to waste food unnecessarily. 2. I had forgotten my private drink under my chair, I came less than 2 minutes later and was told they had already thrown it in the trash and I'm sorry but in my opinion they could have kept it for a moment so I won't eat there again. Above all, it felt like nothing was going on, so that wouldn't be an excuse.

A wonderful evening with warm hospitality and really good Bavarian cuisine! The food was fresh, homemade and prepared with a lot of love - the roast pork in particular was to die for. The service was attentive and friendly without being intrusive. Rustic atmosphere, cozy and authentic – you immediately feel at home. We'll definitely be back!

We spent 4 wonderful days in the hotel and also ate there! (It was very tasty!) Service is great! Everyone was really friendly and accommodating! Our suite was huge and very clean! We slept great in the beds! The only flaw was that there was a light with a motion detector in the bathroom! So at night it was extremely bright not only in the bathroom, but also in the sleeping area and that continued for quite a long time after leaving the bathroom... not so good for me as a light sleeper! The location is perfect too! You can be in the center and near the ships in under 5 minutes!

My criticism relates to the restaurant - and primarily to the unfriendly, bad-tempered waiter we have encountered in a long time. We wanted to celebrate the end of a beautiful trip in a traditional restaurant, but we were neither greeted warmly nor were food or drinks lovingly served. A single disappointment.

As a dining guest it is easy to be overlooked. The strudel is reminiscent of firm cheesecake. The "hot chocolate" tasted like water. However, the service was nice.

Von Anfang an nicht willkommen gefühlt, ehr mäßiges Essen lieblos serviert, Kellner unfreundlich - kein einziges Wort mit uns gesprochen. Sehr enttäuschend, wir wollten den Abschluss einer Reise feiern, werden das Lokal leider in keiner guten Erinnerung behalten.

Can only judge the restaurant. This is a clear recommendation.

Great food and the price-performance ratio is right. The Viennese veal schnitzel is highly recommended. Not a given, such a great meal in a touristy place.

Went to Biergarten. Very nice. Great food and service

The rating refers to the waiter from yesterday's lunch. After sending things back and forth three times, we got up and left again after about 30 minutes without having ordered anything.

Very nice, well-kept hotel with a very good breakfast and very friendly staff. We'd love to come back.

Awful service. Sat at a table for 10 minutes and then no one came, when I finally got someone they said they weren't serving that table even though it was identical to the other tables.

Top hotel! Great location, friendly staff!

The hotel is beautifully located in the middle of the old town by the cathedral and the underground car park is right next to the hotel. We received a very friendly welcome and our small suite was very spacious and clean. The toilet and shower were separate and the beds were very comfortable. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating and always had a smile on their faces. The restaurant in the beautiful old walls is very cozy, even if the portions are a bit small. However, the beer tastes wonderful. All you can say about breakfast is that there was something for every taste and the quality of the sausages was very good. Only the three ladies in the breakfast room were a bit demotivated and we didn't like the fact that the more mature one was touching all the rolls with her hands. There was a different staff there the day before and you could tell they were enjoying their work. The terrace and the beer garden in the inner courtyard invite you to linger and we were served very friendly here too. Everything is within walking distance from this hotel.

I would not publish this review if the bishop's court at the cathedral had commented on the criticism I sent to the house by email. This was probably not seen as necessary. Therefore here is the publication. On March 24th, 2025 I reserved a table for two people at 7:00 p.m. So far so good. My wife and I were under the assumption that your restaurant accepted the Schlemmer Block. We told the waitress this before ordering, but she didn't really know what to do with it. When we asked for the bill, we mentioned to the waitress that the deduction was based on the Schlemmer Block rules. After an internal communication from the waitress, we were informed that your restaurant does not accept a Schlemmer Block, but that this is the Bischofshof Braustuben restaurant. As a foreigner, I wasn't aware of this when I booked the table because I assumed that there was only one restaurant in Regensburg called Bischofshof. OK, my mistake. The fact that the waitress didn't inform us about this before ordering is a mistake on your part. We also ordered Kaiserschmarrn as dessert. This was probably on the hob too long because it tasted like dry biscuits. We also reported this to the waitress, who apologized but charged the full price. My wife and I would have expected a discount here at the latest. You are welcome to return the favor to us by at least refunding us the cost of the Kaiserschmarrn. Kai Uwe and Mariola Schwarz

Nice courtyard for great food and drink

I had hell,pils,wiese bier of Bischofshof. All of them tastes great 👍

We were here for dinner on Saturday and wanted to try out Bavarian cuisine. My wife took a knuckle and I took a Schäufle. Both dishes were excellent. The service was quick and courteous.

Significantly more expensive than the Hofbräuhaus in Munich...

Food was good. Portions not really big for the price.

Very nice location, great food and nice staff

Went to the restaurant to warm up and have lunch on Saturday after a long hike in overcast weather and very cold wind. The pork knuckle with dumplings and cabbage was just the thing! Very, very tasty. The young woman who served me was extremely friendly, courteous and very attentive. I felt very comfortable here. I can't judge the hotel because I was only there to eat.

If Thai people pass by and see this post Come eat at this restaurant. The food tastes very good. And the beer is great, definitely recommend it.

Dieses Jahrhunderte altes Haus liegt im Zentrum von Regensburg direkt neben dem Dom. Die Zimmer sind geräumig und unterschiedlich klassisch möbliert. Eine Tiefgarage direkt neben dem hotelgebäude ist vorhanden. Das Haus verfügt auch über ein bayerisches wirtshaus. Leider ist die Lobby zum längeren Aufenthalt nicht so gut geeignet und es werden dort auch keine Getränke serviert. Insgesamt aber ein empfehlenswertes Haus.

We booked this hotel through a recommendation. Unique location right next to the cathedral with its own indoor area. The inn is rustic and you will always be full here. As is usual in Bavaria, dogs are allowed here too. The rooms are accessible via an arcade. We were here in winter but will come again in summer. Limited parking spaces in the inner courtyard. Absolute recommendation!

We were only here in the restaurant. Nice atmosphere in the old building and very good and friendly service. The food was very good and plentiful. The prices are very reasonable for what's on offer.
