Bitburger Wirtshaus in Trier

Good food for a good price. Fast service, food on the table quickly. A bowl of water for the dog...

Great breakfast, there's something for everyone, and it's always freshly prepared and replenished.

A very good and wide selection of drinks and food, including a breakfast buffet from morning until noon, all at fair prices. Excellent value for money and service. Highly recommended.

We spontaneously decided to grab a beer! After 10 minutes, our order was taken listlessly, and 20 minutes later: they'd forgotten our order (even though the place was only about 20% full). So we left.

There were 12 of us, 7 adults and 5 children. The food was very good and the service was great. We ordered a selection of sausages as appetizers, and 3 pork knuckles for the adults, and a children's menu for the kids. We had 7 half-liter beers, without dessert. In the end, the bill came to less than €20 per person. The waiter spoke to us in Spanish and we were served very quickly! Perfect place to go with children!

The cocktails here are always delicious. Yesterday I tried the "Flieten" (a type of German pastry) for the first time. Also very tasty. My only complaint: the TV showing the Bundesliga match was too loud.

It was delicious; we ate here three times within a week because we enjoyed it so much. No matter how busy it was, the food always arrived very quickly, and the staff frequently asked if we needed anything else. The waiters were all very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend it to everyone.

We had decent experiences here during our lunch visits in February 2024 and September 2025. A good spot for satisfying German dishes if you're at Trier. Pros: > Food is okay > Has a wide selection of German food and drinks > Has a lot of indoor and outdoor seating > Staff are friendly and can speak/understand English > Located in the city center Cons: > While the food is okay, it was nothing special > A few food items we wanted were unavailable > Seating can be more comfy, maybe with cushions

I went to watch football at Bitburger for the first time in ages. It was pretty quiet. A sign of the times with skyrocketing prices. The service was inconsistent. Sometimes very friendly, other times they took an order at the next table and didn't even notice the empty glass next to them. A familiar problem. Especially in a brewery, things should be different. I have to be very critical of the food. I had the Käsespätzle (cheese spaetzle). The portion was rather small, the salad had standard dressing but was otherwise okay. The spaetzle were far too soft, lacked salt, couldn't taste any pepper, and the cheese was tasteless. You can discuss the increased prices in the restaurant industry, and the cost of ingredients for a handful of spaetzle with salad might be less than €2. But if you're still charging €15 for it, the food should be well-prepared. Käsespätzle isn't exactly haute cuisine. And that's what really bothers me. If a plate like that cost €8-9, you might overlook it, but at €15, it's unacceptable. I have to be critical of the food. The server tried to excuse it by saying it was due to the cheese sauce, etc. That's nonsense, of course. Especially since the spaetzle in another dish my companion ordered were also too soft. So please, dear Bitburger, instead of trying to downplay the mistake, cook properly.

Simply good food for a reasonable price. Very busy and noisy. Service is fast. Making a reservation through their own website is apparently not always possible, as we experienced.

The food is good, the portions are perfectly fine, the waiters are very busy, and unfortunately, we were the ones who suffered. We waited 15 minutes to order drinks, 15 minutes for the drinks to arrive. Then we ordered our food, and then we waited 75 minutes for the food. We won't put ourselves through that again, although we understand it's busy. But it was simply far too long.

Service was courteous and friendly, we got a table despite the full house, unfortunately the pork fillet medallions were very dry and the cheese spaetzle too and it was not warm

For starters, I had Trierer Flieten (a kind of pancake) with aioli. Chicken wings with a spice scrub and a sauce of my choice—in my case, an aioli. The dish was okay, but nothing special. The homemade spritzers were solid and good value for money. The main course was cheese spaetzle with salad. Unfortunately, the dish wasn't convincing. The spaetzle were overcooked, lacked the flavor of a mountain cheese that complemented the dish, and I had to add salt and pepper. The salad that accompanied the dish was balanced and colorful. It was dressed with a cream/yogurt dressing. I would have preferred an apple cider vinegar/mustard vinaigrette for a more refreshing contrast to the heavy dish. But that's a matter of taste. The service was consistently friendly, courteous, and very informative, and I felt like I was being taken care of every step of the way. A big compliment to Dennis, who served me. Thank you very much!

Very tasty food, tasted very good, ambience also very nice, but for me the price is incomprehensible because as an adult I can expect to be full from 17€ for a schnitzel, but the portion was more for a child (in my opinion)

I was there today, October 11, 2025. I was assigned a table, and the wait staff was incredibly friendly and very accommodating. The food, for example, suckling pig with mashed potatoes and sauerkraut, was incredibly delicious and highly recommended. The portions are very generous. It's definitely worth a visit.

Extremely friendly service. Delicious German classics. More than adequate value for money.

A lovely, well-kept inn where you can meet up for breakfast in the morning and for a delicious cocktail in the evening. The staff is very friendly and very child-friendly; we enjoy coming here regularly.

We stopped here for drinks. The selection is good and the prices are reasonable. The service was friendly and quick. I can't say much about the food.

There were 18 of us there. The food arrived early, but the drinks took a while. Unfortunately, the food was not good at all; some of it was cold, some of it undercooked, and the burgers were poorly topped. The cocktails were tasty but not strong; everything here is about quantity. The warming oven in the open kitchen fits the overall impression: quantity, quantity, quantity. There are much better restaurants in the area.

Good sports pub in Trier. Enjoyed the place.

Very nice place. We sat outside in the sun an enjoyed some beers and pancake. Plenty of seating.

It often took longer, but was otherwise good

Super friendly staff and fantastic food, as well as a very generous breakfast buffet. Highly recommended if you're visiting Trier.

The pork knuckle with vegetables was delicious, freshly prepared, and well-seasoned. The non-alcoholic beer was also very good; highly recommended!

Breakfast is good, lunch is okay, portions seem to be getting smaller and smaller. But the service has always been top-notch.

Unfortunately, we didn't get the food we ordered, and the quality was just okay. The spaetzle was mediocre, the schnitzel came with a lot of papery sauce, and the salad was quite good. We weren't impressed.

A very nice inn. And super attentive service. Prices are extremely fair. I'd be happy to come back.

Can you go? I recommend the all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet.

The food took 3 hours to come not only that but it was dirty and smelled weird and when the food came after I was starving it was worse than McDonald's.

Seven of us spontaneously stopped by on a Friday evening. We were assigned a table. The food was so good. Plenty and fresh. Unfortunately, the service was abysmal. We would have liked to order more drinks. All of them. However, it wasn't possible to order them either via the app or with gestures. In a brewery, I expect the service, especially with drinks, to be better organized. The service staff were simply overwhelmed. It's a shame, everything else was fine.

I ordered a cocktail, and after the first one was returned, the second one was even worse mixed—probably because I complained. Swapping sugar for salt—okay—can happen, too. I'll spare you the rest.

The staff is super friendly and the service is very good and attentive. Even though you can order by phone, they always pay attention to any requests you may have. The food was delicious, truly excellent German cuisine. Especially the sauerkraut – highly recommended! All in all, a very good experience there.

Cozy pub with very friendly staff and good beer.

central location, good menu, friendly service

The food is more on the level of a good chain restaurant, but the prices are okay for the location. A bit underwhelming, but you can eat there. The breakfast buffet is nice and plentiful.

Great brewery, good food and drinks, very friendly service, and absolutely reasonable price/performance ratio.

Everything was great, the service, the decor. Had the schnitzel it was amazing.

A total of 30 minutes of waiting – no interest in guests I ordered a beer at the Bitburger Wirtshaus Trier. While neighboring tables received their drinks after 3 minutes, I waited for more than 20 minutes without any updates. When I asked, the simple reply was, "We're currently changing the keg" – without an apology or offer of an alternative. I had to call several times! Later, I was suddenly told there were "technical problems" and asked if I wanted "something else." No manager (supposedly "in a meeting"), no compensation, not even a "sorry." Conclusion: Ridiculous organization, disinterested staff, zero customer service.

Friendly pub and brasserie in the center of Trier, with a magnificent and very large terrace. The food is simple and typically German. The interior is nicely decorated, although a little dark. The service is quite efficient but can take a little time during busy times, given the number of tables available.

Had a lovely breakfast there. Great selection and friendly staff.

10:30 a.m. Best time for breakfast. Boiled eggs empty. Yogurt empty. Rolls temporarily empty. Croissants temporarily empty. Greek stew empty. The list goes on. Tea ordered 45 minutes ago and still nowhere to be seen. Reason: one coffee machine is broken. There's a backlog in processing orders. So the tea customers have to wait, too. Flexibility is nonexistent. It's not as if a group of 60 teachers turns up unannounced. They knew about this a few weeks in advance. Then perhaps they could adjust the number of service staff. The management should be able to do that. Or is that asking too much? And they'll probably still charge the full price in the end. I'm curious. Chances are I'll come back here again...you can guess.

Lunch for a family. Service was good and efficient. Food was good. Lovely location. Great beer.

This was the second time I've been there and simply wasn't served. Since I had to catch a bus trip, it eventually got too late, and I had to leave – without lunch.

We were there last Saturday. At first, the service was very friendly and attentive. The meal, a baked potato and a cheese spaetzle: the potato was still quite firm 😉, the salad was very modest, but the taste was OK. The cheese spaetzle were anything but "inviting" (eating with the eyes) 😉, and the salad was also very modest. We wanted to pay, but unfortunately our server was no longer there, so we had to wait a bit for a colleague. We sat outside; the table was sticky. Unfortunately, the price/performance ratio here isn't right.

We had a wonderful lunch here! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. What made the experience extra special was the service — Dominiek took such great care of us. Friendly, attentive, and with spot-on recommendations.

We found the food bland; I'm used to cheese spaetzle differently. It was more of a sauce, a bit mushy. I asked for salt and pepper... but it didn't come even after asking again. The grilled platter wasn't that special in our opinion, but it was OK. Value for money 😕

The beer is good 🍻 The food isn't necessarily worth recommending. The ox sausage is not recommended! It's cold and completely overpriced! As compensation, they didn't charge for the mustard 🤦‍♂️

Attentive, super friendly staff… Unfortunately, there weren't enough service staff… the food was delicious, plentiful, and hot 😃😃😃😃 thank you very much

The bacon cheeseburger was amazing. Dine at the Kornmarkt in Trier. Great atmosphere in the summer.

Good service. Cocktails during happy hour were a bit bland, mostly cold fruit juice.

There were eight of us traveling, and we spontaneously asked for a table and actually got one right away! That alone was a pleasant surprise. The food was very good, solid cuisine, just as you'd expect from a local restaurant. The real highlight of our visit, however, was the service. Our waiter was simply fantastic, attentive, friendly, and warm at the same time. He practically anticipated our every need, was always present without ever being intrusive, and his good mood carried the entire evening. You rarely experience such genuine commitment and hospitality these days. An evening we will surely remember for a long time, not just because of the food, but above all because of the exceptional service. Absolutely recommended!

We sat outside and it was very busy. The food was good. The service was friendly but a little overwhelmed because there were too many people there. The atmosphere is nice. A nice place in Trier. Overall, everything was pretty good, but not perfect. The food could definitely be improved. The service was overwhelmed, and the place was completely full because other restaurants had outdoor seating, so it was quite loud. You can't go wrong with a visit, though; it's always a good choice, as the prices are very fair, and the food was pretty good.

It's become a regular spot. Why? Friendly service. The food is delicious. The atmosphere is pleasant.

We had lunch there, and despite the restaurant being extremely busy, we received impeccable service. Our service absolutely exceeded our expectations. I ordered an additional side salad with my main course and requested it with oil and vinegar vinaigrette. Since my main course came with a small salad dressing, which is usually served with yogurt dressing, our server naturally made sure that the salad dressing was also dressed with oil and vinegar vinaigrette, without me even requesting it. Absolute respect, considering the restaurant was almost completely full!

Great atmosphere, but unfortunately, the food was terrible. Quick tourist check-in. A shame.

Ordered a grill plate, was asked whether it was medium or well done, so I ordered medium, and every piece of meat was practically dead in the pan. There was no service nearby to complain about. When clearing up, it was pointed out, and it was dismissed as okay. They're not going to do this. Two people, just under €60, never again.

Solid German cuisine, good beer, worth it.

The food was delicious! They didn't understand Dutch, but we were helped very well and quickly.

Delicious food, great atmosphere!

Unfortunately, it's not like it used to be. All the food these days is pre-cooked and simply heated. The quality isn't great.

The food was delicious and the service was very attentive. We were there three times for the breakfast buffet and twice for dinner. The breakfast buffet is excellent with a wide selection. We would come back anytime.

An abnormally long wait for your food. Drinks arrived within a short, normal time, but the food arrived an hour later.

Good German food, their haxe was super delicious (very large portion), nice to sit outside on an evening in July on the cozy square.

Always recommended for a good hearty meal

With beautiful weather, extremely friendly service, and a friendly crowd, it was the perfect place to end your vacation in comfort. The food was worthy of the inn's name, and there was a selection of different beers, including the last Winterbock of July.

I ate a burger there. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. Neither in terms of taste nor quality. Overall, it just wasn't tasty.

Verry good food, love the snitzel and the burgers a huge :). And verry good service 5 starts allround.

Top breakfast and super friendly service

I've been a customer at this establishment for 5 years. I came here from Wittlich on purpose to have lunch, and today was a horrible experience. It took over 30 minutes to get a drink, over an hour to get my food. If things continue like this, I'll have to change restaurants.

Food ok… but service great… Thanks to Jasmin and the nice colleague

Imagine your friends invite you to a German restaurant but you're a vegetarian. Tough luck? Not here, apparently! I thoroughly enjoyed the vegetarian burger and also the sauerkraut. Kitchen staff cares to put out quality food and severs are very friendly. The vegetarian dishes are not merely an afterthought, but a well thought out and executed part of the menu.

Four of us went to brunch on Sunday. Unfortunately, it was very disappointing. The croissant and bread were quite good. There was a small selection of fruit and muesli, three different scrambled eggs with bacon, fried eggs, four different jams, Nutella, and various sausages and cheeses. However, many things were missing and were replenished only slowly. There were no small bowls for the jam, Nutella, and other items. This meant that you were forced to slap the jam onto the much too small plate, which already sweetened the outside of the roll. You could barely put a bribe on your roll without it sinking into the jam floating on the tiny plates. The overpriced, cheap orange juice was sour and therefore undrinkable. The very friendly waitress offered me a new drink, but for the hefty price of €5.00, an orange juice should be fine. I suspect it was turned over. The rolls were only suitable for people with strong, intact teeth. The buffet was filled with freshly cut dishes, which didn't exactly make for a great breakfast. You had to search a bit to find a clean plate. In some cases, the butter paper was still hanging on the underside of the plate. However, the extremely helpful and friendly staff deserves special mention. All in all, disappointing and with plenty of room for improvement. Maybe we just had a bad day.

Very smooth service by friendly staff. Very large selection of drinks and food. I had the marinated neck cutlet, my wife the pork medallion with pepper sauce. Both very tasty and perfectly cooked.

The service was very nice. We ordered 3 fish fillets for lunch. Honestly, I would expect something like that in some seasonal fish bar in a very tourist sea resort. Deep fried in bread crumbs, sorry. The potatoes were much better.

It was very empty and yet the service was overwhelmed. You can't say anything about the price-performance ratio, it was reasonable.

The food is brutally slow. Service was okay, but you could have made four times as much from us on drinks alone. Cheers

The food wasn't bad, but when you have to wait 2.5 hours for the food and an hour for the drink, the 1 star is absolutely deserved.

Never again, the meals offered were subterranean.

Bad conditions but food very good

Grilled chicken is on the menu, but they serve deep-fried chicken. I returned the food twice because it was still raw inside. Service was very good, but because of the food, NEVER again.

Had a great meal on a busy terrace. Service was excellent. Menu is simple but good.

A beautiful brewery, with plenty of space and a good food and drink menu. The burgers are delicious, there's a good selection of beer, including some craft beers. Sports broadcasts are available on the big screen.

The place is very nice, with a pleasant atmosphere. The service was really great, very friendly and attentive at all times. The food was very good, and we really liked both the beer and wine we had. An excellent experience!

We were looking for a place to get one liter of beer, pretzels and a glass of wine. The attention was so good that we felt welcome to also order curry wurst. We loved the place and its vibe

Nice terrace on the Korenmarkt. The service was quick and friendly. We enjoyed delicious cocktails and flammkuchen.

Cozy terrace to sit, tasty basic dishes. Typically German! Top!

A beer can't get any worse than this, a tragedy for any brewmaster and a disservice to Bitburger. We addressed the matter sympathetically, but the response was nothing but incomprehension.

We don't understand some of the very negative reviews. During our short trip, we enjoyed the breakfast buffet on both days, and we rounded off our last evening there with a hearty meal. Although it was always very busy, we were always served in a friendly manner. Everyone was very attentive, so a slight wait shouldn't be a reason to deduct points. We were completely satisfied and would visit this restaurant again anytime.

The wait time and the communication are absolutely outrageous. I'm not saying long wait times are okay. But you have to communicate that. Even if you're asked several times, just honestly say that it's not possible today.

2 hours of waiting, no food. Germany is great...

The service was very poor. The waiters were poorly trained and unmotivated, and consequently inattentive. Fortunately, there are alternatives all around.

Not so nice, the food wasn't fresh and it was too loud.

There's not much to say... It was fabulously delicious... Service was top-notch.

We were there with a larger group. We waited well over an hour for our food and at least half an hour for each round of drinks. The cheese spaetzle was abysmal. The spaetzle were drowned in béchamel from a bag with a bit of cheese, and they were lukewarm. Never again.

The two stars are solely due to the service. The online reservation process was easy and straightforward. We spontaneously reserved a table and promptly got one at prime time. Once we arrived, we realized we could have found a seat without a reservation. We had a table in the winter garden, but had to change because it was impossible to converse due to a large group. Very poor soundproofing... The second room was fine. The service was friendly and largely attentive, although there's still room for improvement here, too. We tried several beers, which were perfectly fine! When we looked at the menu for a schnapps, we decided to change restaurants. There was hardly any choice, and more schnapps were only listed upon request. The food: Disastrous, unloving, and tasteless. The emphasis here is on tasteless, ready-made quantity over quality. This was the feeling at the entire table. I had a pork neck steak with bland ready-made spaetzle, wobbly mushrooms, and baked cheese. The presentation itself was very poor; a leaf of parsley would have improved it. Taste? Hunger drove it down... With a little salt and pepper, I at least ate the meat. It's a real shame! I definitely won't be back next time I'm in Trier!

We spontaneously stopped by for dinner during our company outing, having found a free table outside by chance. The place was very busy, and the weather was fantastic. We received friendly and fairly prompt service, and even after a very reasonable wait, we received our food. Every dish looked excellent, and we all enjoyed it immensely. Thank you for this wonderful end to our trip :)

The service was very nice and friendly. We were there with a group of 11 people. The food was not recommended across the board. The meat was very well done and dry, although the beef was medium rare. The cheese spaetzle tasted like water and nothing.

Food was very good, service was a bit understaffed. But it was still sufficiently fast. Can be recommended with a clear conscience.

We used to go to the breakfast buffet often and were always very satisfied. After a long break we went again and were very disappointed. The large buffet plus drinks were collected. But only the small buffet was uncovered. The fruit was long past its good days. The bananas mushy and brown. The pears were borderline bad and the grapes looked neither fresh nor washed. The yogurt tasted like yeast. All in all, the quality of some of the food was absolutely not okay.

Waited 15 minutes for a server and left.
