Blauer Aff in Bensheim

Highly recommended, had wonderful ox cheeks 😋👌

Das Restaurant ist in einem Gebäude das aus 1840 stammt. Viele Sachen sind sehr alt und haben einen tollen Flair. Das Restaurant war sehr gut besucht, unbedingt vorab reservieren. Das Essen wurde schön präsentiert und hat lecker geschmeckt. Unbedingt erwähnenswert ist auch das nette Personal. WIr werden garantiert, weitere Besuche einplanen.

Immer wieder ein Genuß. Trotz des immer sehr gut besuchten Lokals ist die Qualität und die Auswahl ungewöhnlich gut besonders weil es kein 0815 Angebot wie sonst üblich in anderen deutschen Lokalen ist sondern besonders. Sehr sehr gutes Personal immer sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Einziger Wermutstropfen ist für uns daß die Hauptspeise immer sofort auf die Vorspeise folgt statt eine kleine Pause zu machen was ja bei mehreren Gängen üblich ist. Als ich nach der Vorspeise zur Toilette musste und zurück kam stand mein Essen schon da. Mag sein dass es der Doppelbelegung aufgrund der stets ausgebuchten Tische geschuldet ist. Aber wenn ich essen gehe besonders in so einem gemütlichen Lokal und auch nicht wenig Geld dafür ausgebe dann möchte ich nicht nach nicht mal einer Stunde wieder fertig sein. Dafür besucht man ja so ein schönes Lokal gerade weil ich selbst gerne und gut koche. Aber wenn wir dann essen gehen dann wollen wir das Lokal und das Essen eben auch genießen und geht nicht in einen Fast food. Wir sind die Generation slow food.

The food is very good, no matter when we were there - always good. The portions are large. There is often a lack of salt on the tables, which you can get on request. You have to like the decor, but it's cult and not uncomfortable. Only the parking situation deters more frequent visits, even though there are public parking spaces nearby.

We were there for dinner. Reservation recommended. We had beef fillet, which was extremely well fried. The half chickens were juicy and the skin was crispy. Cooked cheese was 10/10. The food is always amazing and you won't be disappointed. The service is friendly and attentive. I love the ambience very much. Definitely come here people.

Originelle Einrichtung, sehr freundliche Mitarbeiter und leckeres Essen zu einem fairen Preis. Große Weinauswahl . Wir kommen immer wieder gerne hierher !

Everything was great, would love to come again!

It's a nice place. The food is delicious.

Cozy restaurant. Very good food and nice service

Very nice, original restaurant with delicious cuisine. Service also very friendly! Definitely again☝️

Perfekt wie immer - leckeres Essen, große Weinauswahl, guter Service :-) Wir kommen seit Jahren und lieben den Innenhof, im Sommer und im Winter.

Cozy place with very good food. Felt like in 19th century. Super friendly people.

Always good, consistent quality over the years.

First of all, I have to mention that we had quite high expectations of this restaurant, as it was fully booked several times on the weekend before today's visit. We also knew that we only reserved one slot from 5:30-7:00 p.m. At the beginning everything went quite normally, the drinks and appetizers were at the table quickly and tasted okay. Unfortunately, my steak was not only cooked beyond medium-rare, but also completely unevenly. I would have liked to speak to the service, but they didn't come to our table for over half an hour until it was just before 7 p.m. to tell us in no uncertain terms that we now had to pay and leave. At this point the plates were still on the table. No chance for a conversation, dessert or anything like that because the next customers were already waiting. I can't remember ever being treated like that in a restaurant. It's certainly within my imagination that an evening here could be more pleasant, but unfortunately for us the stay bordered on a total failure.

Die Atmosphäre im Aff ist immer wieder schön. Das Essen kommt wie immer super schnell. Das Rumpsteak ist einfach der Hammer. Das Kochkäseschnitzel ist ebenfalls sensationell.

Regular guest for 15 years. Always attentive and friendly service. Marginal pricing policy and fluctuating quality and portion size (e.g. hand cheese, chicken). Air quality in the smoking area is unacceptable, clothes can go straight to the dry cleaners but it is one of the most beautiful places in the restaurant. Why for smokers???

We came here with several people based on an invitation and it was an excellent meal with rustic dishes. The atmosphere is appropriate and every table is occupied, which, at least for me, is always a good sign. The visit was definitely worth it 👍

quaint, harmonious. The rib-eye steak is always really good.

We always enjoyed going to the blue monkey. However, our last visit was disappointing. We had a time slot of 1.45 hours. I find these slots strange, but I consciously accepted them for this evening. Now I have to ask myself what position the guest has if we want to order espresso at 7:30 p.m. and are asked if we can do it by 7:45 p.m. Please how???? To say the least, this is a disgrace and shows where you stand as a guest. Namely, come, eat, pay and get out. The food at the Blauer Aff is good, not outstanding. If you're still treated like that, well. And fortunately we have the freedom to say: future visits? No thanks.

Very nice and good restaurant with a small and very good selection of dishes at fair prices. The selection of open wines is sufficient (for me ;-) and good. A look into the kitchen from the hallway is possible and creates trust. The service was quick and very good; special requests and changes were addressed promptly and in a friendly manner. The portions were more than sufficient, tasty and visually well presented. I'll be back for sure as soon as possible, thank you very much! I have nothing to add this time either!

Great atmosphere Super nice staff Exselent food 🙌👌 Any time

One of the best restaurants on Bergstrasse.

Very friendly service... Very tasty food... Price/performance ratio is right... and the location is just something beautiful and extraordinary...

I really like it in the Blauer Aff. The food was and is always good for me. Unfortunately, a very smelly dog ​​came into the guest room. That spoiled my meal a little. The heat and the tightness made the whole thing intensified. Too bad! Therefore 2 stars deducted.

Been there again for a long time. It's simply wonderful. Food very tasty... service very friendly and all at a fair price.

We were here for the first time on Saturday. We'd love to come back.

Great service, super friendly, delicious food, what more could you want. The ambience is of course also amazing. Unfortunately, there aren't many restaurants with such a long tradition anymore. We'll definitely be back!

A restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff, good food and wine. However, with the mashed potatoes I would have liked fresh fried onions and not cold fried onions from the package. Otherwise everything is great!

The taste is really so yummi and the chicken is so tendered and loved the place ambience and the service people are so humble and nice. Highly recommend the place for a dinner

Very nice restaurant with a cozy atmosphere, very good food and great service.

Always worth a visit. Cozy atmosphere, very tasty food and great service. Absolutely recommended!!!

As always, the food was super delicious! We really enjoy coming here.

Disturbing (in the courtyard) loud announcements in the kitchen.

Special location with delicious dishes that you can hardly get anymore. The service was good.

Besondere Lokalität mit leckerem Essen. Es gibt Gerichte, die man kaum noch auf Karten findet, die man aber von Oma's Zeiten her kennt. Mega

Food as always good. May draw a little in the smoking area in winter.

Super cozy & well-kept rustic atmosphere from a long-forgotten time! Very attentive staff, delicious & down-to-earth food at an acceptable price!

A small, nicely furnished restaurant. Rooms are also on the first floor. The food is nicely prepared and there is still a pleasant price-performance ratio. Ruth bourgeois German cuisine is presented.

Wie immer, top Service, leckeres Essen und gemütliche Atmosphäre!! Ich liebe die Klassiker hier aber auch die saisonale Karte bot große Auswahl. Immer wieder gerne

Nothing works without a reservation, but we always enjoy going to the “Blauer Aff”, cozy atmosphere, very good food and service… Top!!!

Very respected restaurant. Absolutely recommended - a dream from the starter to the dessert 🙂

We ate there with a child (3 years old), the service was on point and super friendly! There were also no unpleasant, intrusive questions about other drink requests. The food was great and it was served hot. The kitchen and service also responded very well to our 3 year old's special request. The ambience is absolutely beautiful, rustic but very romantic and lovingly furnished. It wasn't the last time we've been to the "blauen aff" and we're happy to recommend the restaurant.

The Blauer Aff is undoubtedly one of the best culinary restaurants in Hess. Bergstrasse has to offer. The service is friendly and accommodating. In particular, the rump steak Selection Blauer Aff is always cooked to perfection and very tasty!

Cozy restaurant. Service was a bit disorientated, but in the end everyone had what they ordered and the food was good :-) Solid pub cuisine. The rump stick was large and cooked to the desired degree of doneness. There was just as little to complain about with the schnitzel as there was with the chicken or salad and sheep's cheese. The plates should have been cleared sooner, and a query after the main course as to whether a dessert or a drink was desired was somehow missing.

We have been coming with great enthusiasm for years now! It's so cozy, the food is consistently delicious and the service is very friendly and on the ball. We always go out and have a great evening. So it's not surprising that you should make a reservation in advance, as the monkey is always busy. We are already looking forward to the next time!

We had dinner there on a weekday. I had a really excellent tuna that was baked with a sesame crust. Unfortunately the mashed potatoes were only the green color of wasabi. You couldn't taste wasabi. The salmon tartare with rösti can also be recommended. My Pfungstädter Pils in an ice-cold clay mug was also excellent. For dessert, the classic creme brulee served was convincing. The Mouse au Chocolat wasn't that good. It lacked fluffiness. Overall, a highly recommended restaurant.

Always worth a visit. Food and ambience excellent. Reservation required.

Wir waren heute zu zweit im blauen Aff . Ich liebe das Ambiente dort sehr . Die Bedienung ist sehr freundlich und das Essen war gut. Der Nachtisch war leider sehr enttäuschend das Schokoküchlein war kalt und fest und die Mousse au chocolat waren gefrorene Eiskugeln. Echt jetzt ich war so enttäuscht ich liebe Mousse au chocolat und habe diese auch schon oft dort gegessen, aber diese Kreation hat wirklich nichts mit einer Mousse au chocolat zu tun. Unsere Reklamation was denn mit der Mousse au chocolat passiert ist wurde mit einem Schulterzucken 🤷 beantwortet Sehr Schade bei einer Rechnung von 110€ bei 2 Personen.

We have been guests at the Blauer Aff since 2009. Everything always fits absolutely perfectly. Quality and variety of food, fantastic, friendly, fast service, very good wine selection, absolutely cozy atmosphere, ... always TOP!

Wir waren 10 Personen und gleich um 17.30 dort. Es hat alles hervorragend geklappt und das Essen kam für alle gleichzeitig. Bedienung war auch sehr nett und aufmerksam. Wir gehen nächstes Jahr wieder zum Weihnachtsessen in den Blauen Aff.

Everything great as always. Great atmosphere and courteous service.

Very cozy and rustic atmosphere. The old half-timbered house is multi-story and has really nice corners. This creates a really cozy atmosphere and it doesn't get too loud, even when the restaurant is full. We were there on December 25th. there for a family dinner. We reserved a table for 5 p.m. and were assigned it straight away. The waitresses were very attentive and quick. All special requests were no problem. We had different dishes at the table. Including cooked cheese schnitzel, lamb's lettuce, sheep's cheese, potato soup, pumpkin soup, chips with herb quark. We were all very satisfied. When the Christmas season is over, the "tinsel" in the corners should just be taken down :-)) Otherwise there was nothing to complain about

Unfortunately, the quality of the classic dish, half a chicken, is getting worse and the cucumber salad should be avoided. Constructive feedback is met with silence. Past success is the enemy of future success.

Quaint restaurant with delicious food and friendly staff. You have to climb stairs to get to the toilet, which could be problematic for people with limited mobility, but there is no other solution for this historic building

Great, great, great. We had the goose and the Cesar's salad with roast beef from the season menu. Absolute recommendation. Very tasty and fair prices. Anyone who likes honest food will love the Blue Monkey. Special praise goes to the service staff 👍🏻😃

Overall, the food was good, but unfortunately the service was not. Unfortunately, despite the extensive menu, there is not a single main course for vegans.

Always consistently very good quality, beautiful location and attentive service. We've been coming here for decades and have never been disappointed.

Wir waren mit 13 Freunden zum Weihnachtsessen. Tolles Essen, sehr schöne Weine, super gemütlich und sehr guter Service. Ein sehr gelungener Abend, den wir sicherlich wiederholen.

Perfect little restsurant in Auerbach. Very good and cheap food and super nice staff. You shouldn't praise too much because then you'll be even worse off getting a place.

Delicious food, something for everyone with friendly service and pleasant surroundings. Great cuisine!

As always, very good service and food of a very high standard!

Another very delicious Christmas dinner!

A great atmosphere and excellent service keep us coming back again and again. The food is excellent and the price-performance ratio is also very good. My request to get a table in the front area was taken into account when making the reservation. So we were able to spend a great evening in the cozy part of the restaurant with my 85-year-old mother - without having to climb many steps. Many thanks to the whole team!

The food (venison) was good but the price was too high, almost €40 for the minimum portion of meat. The service was quite chaotic and desserts had to wait 20 minutes for two guests to get their dessert.

Very nice atmosphere and delicious food...recommended.

What can I say... we've been eating goose here every year since I was a child and it still tastes great, great ambience and nice service, what more could you want?

We had a very nice evening at the Blauer Aff. The restaurant was very lovingly decorated for Christmas. The service friendly and quick. There was a brief technical problem with the orderman when paying. The food was very good and the kitchen worked super quickly! The price is absolutely okay given the very good performance.

A beautiful location, perfect and courteous service, great food. We can only warmly recommend the Blue Monkey

Full house, but the waitresses are friendly and competent. The food was very tasty, we enjoyed it. There were 10 people there and everyone got their food at once. Will come back.

Christmas party on the first floor. The service staff was very attentive. The food delicious. An all-round successful evening.

A very winding restaurant that has a lot of charm. There is a menu that is always available and one with seasonal dishes, so there should be something for everyone. The service was friendly and very attentive, and special requests (other side dishes) were possible. The food was tasty and of a reasonable size for the price.

Very good food in a great atmosphere

Great ambience. Enjoy your meal. Something different. I'd love to come back....😁

Always a great experience...fantastic food, super nice service and such a cozy atmosphere.

Very friendly and attentive staff. The food is exactly to our taste. We always enjoy coming back.

Delicious food, cozy atmosphere, friendly staff and you can end the beautiful (Saturday) evening undisturbed until after midnight... unfortunately this is no longer a given everywhere, so double praise!

The Blue Monkey in Bensheim is a real eye-catcher with its unique atmosphere and creative cuisine. The restaurant impresses with a modern and cozy atmosphere, which is perfect for a relaxed evening with friends or family. The menu is varied, with a great selection of fresh and tasty dishes - ideal for anyone looking for something special. The service is friendly, attentive and contributes to an all-round successful visit. A place I definitely recommend!

As always, it was super nice and totally delicious. The goose was an absolute dream. We were there for the first time with our 5 month old baby. Right at the beginning we were recommended a somewhat quieter table, which we gratefully accepted. Thank you very much :) we would love to come back.

Great service, food great as always, value for money completely okay. As always, a great evening!!

We went to Aff's with a group of almost 40 people to eat goose. Restaurant manager Ante provided very good food and the portions were more than sufficient! Franzi's service was excellent, so the place got a star - we will be back at our annual culinary event across Germany! Keep it up!

Das Restaurant in der Altstadt von Bensheim Auerbach fällt schon von außen durch seine blaue Fassade ins Auge. Drinnen erwartet einen ein uriges und gemütliches Ambiente mit einer charmanten Mischung aus alter Fachwerkstruktur, niedrigen Decken und viel Holz. Die spezielle Tapete unterstreicht den nostalgischen Charakter und vermittelt das Gefühl, eine kleine Zeitreise in die Vergangenheit zu machen. Der Service ist ausgesprochen freundlich und aufmerksam. Das Personal sorgt dafür, dass man sich rundum wohlfühlt, und die Bedienung ist zügig und professionell. Kulinarisch bietet das Restaurant viel: Mein Kalbschnitzel war hervorragend paniert, dazu perfekt zubereitete Bratkartoffeln – eine Kombination, die ohne Sauce auskommt und dennoch harmonisch abgestimmt ist. Der Salat als Vorspeise war solide, hätte aber etwas kreativer sein können. Der Nachtisch hingegen überzeugte auf ganzer Linie: Das Schokoladenküchlein mit flüssigem Kern war nicht nur geschmacklich ein Highlight, sondern auch optisch ansprechend, dank der Obstdeko. Auch die Hauptspeisen meiner Begleitung – große, frische Salate – waren sehr üppig und ansprechend serviert. Preislich ist das Restaurant absolut angemessen. Das stimmige Gesamtpaket aus Ambiente, Service und hochwertigem Essen rechtfertigt jeden Cent. Ob mit der Familie, als Paar oder bei einem Geschäftsessen – dieses Restaurant ist eine klare Empfehlung.

You need to do a reservation, otherwise it will be very hard to get a table. Very cozy restaurant with a lot of historical and musical decorations. It looks like we are in a different era. The food is great and very well served. The staff is very nice.

Leider hat diese bekannte Location, was das Essen angeht, arg verloren. Ich habe, nach längere Zeit mal wieder dort, das Kochkäseschnitzel bestellt und kann, sagen, dass es sehr langweilig war. Die Bratkartoffeln sahen zwar gut aus, stellten sich dann aber als fad und matschig heraus. Das Schnitzel war ebenso langweilig. Dicke Panade, kein wirklicher Geschmack - auch der Kochkäse war nichts besonderes. Das Essen von meiner Begleitung, der Thunfisch mit blumigem Titel, war ebenso nichts besonderes. Du besten Zeiten des Blauen Affen sind lange vorüber. Die Atmosphäre aber bleibt wunderbar.

Reservation online was carried out very well, all wishes were met.

The blue monkey is awesome. Great wines from the region. The furnishings are very cozy without being kitschy. In the barn, in the courtyard and in the front of the room, a little different everywhere. The very young staff are always on their toes, the food is excellent, “simple” dishes from the region in the standard menu and special delicacies in the seasonal menu. If you weren't there, you missed something, honestly!

Unique ambience and great food! The wine selection is incredible! We had a very successful evening and would love to come back!

The only criticism is that it's usually really loud there.

Wir waren in einer größeren Gruppe mit fast 40 Leuten. Ich kann nur sagen von der Location über das Personal bis zum Essen alles fünf Sterne Superfreundliches Personal, Mega leckeres Essen sehr ausgefallenes Ambiente

It was like always again. Friendly service, good food and the atmosphere in the Blaue Aff is cozy anyway

Unfortunately, smoking is permitted indoors in a covered area

Rump steak 10/10. I can't do any better

Highly recommended. The food is very tasty. The prices are very reasonable for such delicious food

Ein sehr schöner Abend mit unseren Freunde aus Hannover. Toller Wein 🍷 und gutes Essen und eine sehr aufmerksame Bedienung.

It was once again nice all around: very nice ambience in an antique furnished restaurant, very tasty down-to-earth food and very nice service. We'd love to come back!

We had a really wonderful evening. The restaurant was very busy, but you didn't notice that at all when it came to service. The service was super friendly, always there and absolutely quick. The food was very great, starter, main course and dessert everything was very tasty. And the ambience is simply particularly beautiful.

Quaint restaurant with really great food. Even though it was very busy, we were served quickly and professionally. Extremely recommended. However, you should definitely make a reservation. It is usually very well attended

A beautiful ambience, excellent cuisine, the staff is very friendly, but could be a little more attentive. Well, everyone has a bad day. Still highly recommended and we would love to come back 👍😃. Reservation is an advantage! Kind regards from Kaiserslautern 👍😀

The service and the food were very good 👍, but the volume of the surrounding tables was incredibly loud. We didn't understand our own words and left immediately after eating... What a shame!!!

Ambiente: Das Restaurant in Bensheim bietet eine gemütliche und einladende Atmosphäre. Die Einrichtung ist stilvoll. Essen und Trinken: Die Auswahl an Speisen und Getränken ist vielfältig und von hoher Qualität. Besonders das Kochkäs-Schnitzel ist ein Highlight. Service: Der Service ist äußerst zuvorkommend und aufmerksam. Fazit: Ein Besuch im Restaurant in Bensheim ist immer ein Genuss. Die Kombination aus hervorragendem Service und qualitativ hochwertigen Speisen macht es zu einem empfehlenswerten Ort für ein entspanntes Essen.

Definitely one of our absolute favorite restaurants! The Blue Monkey offers a very special atmosphere through its many rooms and areas. Each with a different theme. Whether in the barn, the music room or the courtyard, you can immerse yourself in the rustic charm here! The food and service is excellent every time. The parking situation is always a bit difficult, but you accept it in order to be able to enjoy it.
