Brauerei-Gasthof Bären Gaststätte in Nesselwang

We waited forever for a drink because our order was lost. The salad was forgotten for one dish and never refilled. The cheese spaetzle was very dry.

The food was great, and you didn't have to wait long for your food. The interior is very dark. It's just like it used to be :)

I've never eaten a worse knuckle of pork. Very fatty, dry, and tough meat. The dumpling was dry and looked like it was yesterday's. The sauce was mush. So, stay away. Maybe it was the 2:1 coupon book that caused me to get such a bad knuckle. So, it's better to go to the post office, where the knuckle was great.

The food was lukewarm (cheese spaetzle, spinach dumplings). The potato dumplings were hard—not freshly cooked, just reheated—and had an unappealing gray color. Drinks were overpriced (beer €5.20).

Ate pork knuckle with dumplings and sauce. The sauce and crust tasted artificial and heavy with MSG. I wouldn't recommend it.

We went here because of the good reviews. We've never eaten so badly. Our daughter had a Kaiserschmarrn that was inedible: hard, gritty, with a strong vanilla flavor. Cheese spaetzle from a packet had freezer burn. The pork knuckle with dumplings was harder than the crust, but the meat was just as dry. The schnitzel was bone dry, but the fries were edible. I have no idea if the owner has changed or the chef died. I absolutely wouldn't recommend it. The price is grossly inflated for food that's better in any cafeteria.

The menu is small, but there's something for everyone. The food arrived quickly. The portions were large enough to satisfy the average person. The service was also good, friendly, and attentive. All in all, I recommend this restaurant. The price/performance ratio is also completely acceptable. An added bonus is that it's also open on Mondays.

The schnitzel was okay, but the knuckle of pork and the dumplings were truly delicious and highly recommended. The salad and sauerkraut could have used a bit more seasoning, and the fries were a bit too salty and overcooked for my personal taste. It was a real shame that the roasted onions were already sold out – we definitely want to try that on our next visit! We'd like to highlight the service: very friendly, attentive, and thoroughly enjoyable. That's exactly what makes the difference and ensures we'll be happy to return.

Friendly and good service. Very good food!

Comfortable and surprisingly good. The price/performance ratio is definitely good.

We had liver, which was very tasty, and we had knuckle of pork, which was just average, nothing special (as some people here have said). The rind wasn't particularly crispy and wasn't particularly flavorful. With the knuckle of pork, you get a choice of two potato dumplings or two bread dumplings. I chose one of each... Charging €2 for a change of side dish is a real cheek!! Okay... I deducted it from my tip. Bottom line... There are better restaurants in the area.

Gourmet salad for €15.90 - a mountain of iceberg lettuce with a few pieces of meat and no dressing. Cheese spaetzle - good, but very little. Service was quite pleasant.

A classic brewery with hearty food and good beer. We'd love to go again!

If you appreciate hearty food, this is the place for you! The surprise platter for two is fantastic! The hazelnut liqueur is excellent! You should try it!

Nice inn with good, home-style cooking. We were served quickly and the waiters were very attentive and friendly.

I had zander that was very dry.

Quaint restaurant with good service, good food, and good beer. Reasonably priced, too. Open every day from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM.

In my opinion, the dishes were an experiment on the part of the chef. The schnitzel in a potato crust tasted of fish, and the sauce served with the veal cheeks was unsuitable.

We were here over two years ago, and it wasn't that good. Now there's a new owner, and we were absolutely thrilled. Delicious food, great service. The Kaiserschmarren (smothered pancakes) was absolutely delicious. Keep it up 👍

Delicious food, friendly staff.

We can't rate the food because we arrived late and the kitchen was already closed. We noticed the extremely friendly staff, and we were welcome to enjoy a nice beer in the beer garden.

Portions could be a little larger

A quaint inn in the center of Nesselwang. The food selection was straightforward (home-style), the quality was good, and the portion sizes were adequate. The salad was unimaginative, with very little dressing. What bothers me personally, though, is that when I go to a brewery, I expect fresh, home-brewed draft beer. Unfortunately, there was none of that here...

We already know the Bär from the previous restaurant. It was always a must for us. Most of the photos are from previous restaurants. It was always delicious. Now we've been there again, and quite honestly, I don't need it anymore. It's a shame. The service was very friendly, but almost none of us liked the food. There were 14 of us. The cheese spaetzle and dumplings tasted like convenience foods. The red cabbage had barely any color, and the rest of the food had hardly any flavor. At the next table, a child wanted spaetzle with sauce without cheese. If the spaetzle had been homemade, it would certainly have been possible. But as it was, they only served them with cheese. It's a shame.

Excellent food and very friendly and attentive service. The food takes a while, but that's okay on vacation. The prices are perfectly reasonable. The beef cheeks cost €23.90 and are highly recommended.

The food was very tasty and the service was great.

We were passing through and happened upon the "Bären" by chance. The food was delicious and the service was very good! A quaint restaurant, good value for money – highly recommended! Thank you!

Unfortunately, it was very disappointing! We had a long wait for the food, and unfortunately, the taste wasn't particularly good either. The schnitzel was very greasy, and the spaetzle, unfortunately, wasn't homemade. It's a shame we were looking forward to good, home-style food. Unfortunately, it was just average and not recommended! Paying was also a bit complicated, and we had to wait a long time, as only one waiter can take the payment. It was very inconvenient, especially for us with a baby.

We returned to the Bären after a long time. It's still the same quaint restaurant from 7 years ago. The menu offers Bavarian cuisine as well as seasonal dishes. The staff is very attentive and friendly. The food tastes very good, and everyone will be satisfied. The quality and quantity match the price. Our conclusion: the Bären is worth a visit.

We were there after a hike and sat in the garden restaurant. The service was very attentive, and the food was excellent. The sauce for the beef cheeks was divine! Compliments to the kitchen!

Service good but food too little

What a fiasco... The Bären was recommended to me as a long-established restaurant, albeit with a new owner. So we were in good spirits and received a very friendly welcome. We ordered a large and a small beer, and two large ones arrived. No problem, we can manage that! I ordered schnitzel with cheese spaetzle and an extra side salad. The main course arrived, but unfortunately the salad didn't. It arrived immediately...that is, after another 10 minutes. Even though there was only one other table in the dining room with us. The salad was brought with another apology and looked quite solid; I transferred it to my plate with my main course. After the second bite, I initially thought one of the lettuce leaves was woody and trained it onto the plate. After two more bites, the remaining chef's handkerchief—chef would be an exaggeration—unfolded into nice bite-sized pieces under the salad, and I had to pull myself together to keep the rest of the food down. The waiter apologized again and offered me a shot on the house. I politely declined and asked for the bill. He took the side salad and gravy off the bill... Pretty weak, after such a performance! Very short: In short... never again 🤮🤮

A very pleasant atmosphere and super customer-friendly! The prices are reasonable, the portions generous and delicious. What's especially great: The inn is child-friendly, and the cleaning robot was an absolute highlight for the little ones! We'd love to come back and highly recommend it.

I was here in the beer garden for the first time today. So the food… liver was ok. The potato puree was, well, edible, but the kick was completely missing. Unfortunately the fries weren't a hit either. Too bad. Goes better.

The service was extremely friendly and quick. Even a spontaneous visit was no problem (4 people). We each had the knuckle. The portion size was ideal, but the dumplings were a bit dry. The taste of the crust could have been a little better, but that's complaining on a high level. We were able to leave the stroller in a back room without any problem. Overall a nice stay after a long day of hiking

A very cozy restaurant, we have been here several times and have never been disappointed. Friendly service and very tasty food. If we are in the area we will definitely come back. I can only recommend it to everyone!

So what can you say about that? The food was terrible The soup is lukewarm Drinks such as beer etc. were not chilled The food is so-so, Price performance not given at all! No, never again We knew that the food selection wasn't large But but but..... One more thing can be said: Service was totally ok Very nice! The rest: No, never again!!!

The staff was more than friendly and accommodating!!! The ambience: well The food was ok, but if we had to pay in full for both meals, we would have been annoyed.

We went there today for a quick bite to eat - super friendly, attentive waiter and the food was fantastic too!

A hearty inn with friendly service and delicious food. In addition to Bavarian cuisine, there is also a seasonal selection, for example asparagus in different versions. You can taste the fresh preparation. Even children's meals are not “convenience”. I had asparagus with trout and boiled potatoes - really excellent. I found it exciting that the inside of the fish was also fried so that I could eat the lower bones.

No.. don't go there! I come to Nesselwang again and again, have been to this restaurant again and again and have been satisfied. On Tuesday, at lunchtime, I sit inside and, as always, order my beloved Allgäuer Kässpatzen. They tasted like crap. That was koan cheese." Ask the waiter: "Why such crappy cheese? .. Even in the Allgäu?" The one with an accent: "We get the cheese mixture delivered ready" That's it in the Allgäu. Jessaß :( :( . ..

I ordered the Swabian Zwieselrostbraten with cheese spaetzle. Unfortunately I was served a pork loin. When I asked the waiter, the plate was briefly taken into the kitchen and I was then told that it was not pork fillet but meat from a "young bull", that the meat was so light and that the visitor at the table behind me had the same thing. After the meal, the waitress justified himself by saying that the menu had changed and that he had already sold various roast beef today. In short, it tasted good, but it was pork and therefore not the dish I ordered. I believe that some guests (like the visitor behind me) are knowingly or unknowingly fobbed off with the wrong meat. To perhaps add something positive to the whole thing, the loin was well fried.

Everything was fine. Super nice staff and mega delicious food. Would love to come back.

Delicious food at good prices. Pork knuckle with sauerkraut, dumpling and sauce for €18.90. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Very good food served by a friendly waiter. I can only recommend it.

I haven't eaten such good knuckle of pork in a long time. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I'd love to come back next year.

Good middle-class inn with consistently hot food. There is also a beer garden. In summer and the warmer months, the beer garden is a popular meeting place for young and old. You'll be happy if you were able to get a spot outside! The menu offers a number of Allgäu specialists. But there is also a lot on offer for vegetarians. The furnishings are rural and the overall atmosphere is pleasant. Edit. .. Change of ownership, my review will be revised and reposted shortly

Super friendly staff and good food. Definitely worth a visit.

Very good restaurant with friendly staff. In my opinion the best Kaiserschmarren I have ever eaten! :)

Had dinner there in the evening, very nice service even though the restaurant was very full, we had reserved, pork knuckle, cordan blue were fantastic, dessert, hot love too. If we ever come back from the far north, we'll definitely come back.

We went there to eat spontaneously, which looked so good... it was just pure glutamate, maybe it was because of the time... 4.30 p.m.... The soup...water with Maggi really salted (but we didn't have to pay) the main course wasn't much better... Unfortunately we wouldn't recommend it...

Newly warmed up food and cold and dark inside, fish was warmed up 2 or 3 times on the outside as you can see.

First of all, we often ate at the Bären with the old tenant Unfortunately, today was the first and last time at the new one.....that was the worst thing I've ever eaten in a restaurant Seldom eaten so badly, bread dumplings were warmed up in the pan at least twice, fries were also warmed up again, schnitzel was dry and tasteless, turkey meat was borderline bad. Despite negative feedback to the waiter, there was no reaction, he certainly doesn't know any different...

Top restaurant, food, friendly staff, everything fits

Very rustic brewery inn with a cozy lounge. Food was cheap and tasty. Plus delicious draft beer.

Were in Nesselwang with the motorhome and had dinner here. The food was very tasty. However, the portion of the roulade with just one dumpling is very, very small, which is a shame for the price because it tasted very good, but just a little!

Rustic restaurant, lots of dark wood and a tiled stove. Meat-heavy menu, I really enjoyed it! Bären beer is great! Very friendly service, prices ok.

Service was absolutely great... Fast, competent and friendly... It was strange, however, that the order was still recorded on paper... We'll definitely be back. Price performance is also perfect. Decent portions for a reasonable price. Thanks and keep it up

We were here for the first time, it was very nice, the economy is very rustic, which we like very much The food was very tasty and the meat was tender. Would definitely come back again and again

This soup is gold in these frosts. I recommend ordering. Additionally, I took schnitzel with cheese and rice. The rice was a bit dry in my opinion, but overall I had a very nice time there

Beautiful restaurant in a rustic style. Great selection of local dishes and the service was very attentive. Absolutely recommended!

Very nice waiter, delicious cheese spaetzle and authentic ambience

Bavarian, cozy and delicious. We will come back here on our next vacation.

Here I ate the very best Kaiserschmarrn: with candied sugar, nuts and raisins. And it was served within 5 minutes.

There was classic Bavarian cuisine and the dishes were tasty. The service was friendly and the beer was good. The portions were sufficiently large

Mediocre food and no interest in welcoming me as single diner (arriving on bicycle).

We were in the restaurant with a family of six people. We had previously made reservations by phone. When we arrived we were seated in a larger room on a corner seat by the fireplace. Unfortunately it was very narrow here and we couldn't sit well. The waiter was new and unfortunately didn't have much knowledge when we asked about dishes on the menu. The food was rather mixed and nothing special. It lacked spice

Top Bavarian restaurant with good food and friendly service. Recommended.

We were there as a group of 36 people. The food was very tasty and most of the dishes were very well portioned. A few things went wrong but given the number of dishes that can happen. Very friendly staff and rustic atmosphere!

Food was very good except for pizzas, the bacon dumplings without a reservation are very bad

Had a delicious 😋 dinner there at a fair price with good service.

Very tasty, great ambience, nice boss - we had a very funny, entertaining and enjoyable evening and would love to come back 👍🏼

Fast and friendly service. The food was delicious, good home cooking.

Lovely food freshly prepared. My schnitzel was light and crispy. Delicious. The two waiters were friendly and very efficient.

I ordered Kässpätzle. Which turned out to be a big mistake. Hidden beneath the pile of ready-made fried onions are spaetzle with traces of cheese. The carelessly prepared salad had almost no sauce. No advertising for the Allgäu.

Had: crusty roast and beef cheeks, yeast dumplings and apple strudel Considering we showed up on a Friday lunchtime without a reservation, the food was great. The beef cheeks were so tender that the meat almost fell apart on its own, the crusty roast and the bread dumplings were also very good. The dessert was as delicious as it was attractively prepared. The service was attentive and quick. The restaurant was able to retain its rustic charm. All in all so good that we will definitely come back.

Deep-fried bone-dry knuckle with dumplings floating in tasteless sauce. I've never had such a bad knuckle. Due to the deep frying, the meat was sometimes dry and tough. Unfortunately it was a mistake to eat here. The entire restaurant seemed very run down and could use a larger cleaning cloth.

Very nice staff and very good cuisine. Everything was freshly prepared, it took a moment, but it was worth it

Were there for dinner. Haxe was ok. Salad and schnitzel too. But nothing more. The waitresses were very friendly. More of a pub feeling than a restaurant.

Spontaneously went to eat here with two small children. Very nice staff, very tasty food and good portions. The children also enjoyed it. Gladly again

A rustic establishment. Service was very friendly and there was plenty and very tasty.

Roast pork was very tasty. The service was very pleasant and good, even though the restaurant was full.

Uncomfortable and very nice, typically Bavarian atmosphere. The food was very 😋 delicious

Nice restaurant with a beer garden. Food was tasty and price was ok I would like to come again.

Enjoy your meal. Friendliest service.

I chose Szeged goulash from the menu of highlighted Hungarian specialties. So... I was served a very large portion of sauerkraut (very tasty!) with a few chunks of pork. It was far from a “goulash”. Even though the herb tasted good, I found it boring to simply eat a large portion of it. And the price wasn't justified either. My children had baked schnitzels. They were okay - but just okay. For the price you can eat much better in Nesselwang! The service was very attentive and friendly. The ambience is a little boring, but good rustic Bavarian.

The seats on the terrace are right at the Aldi entrance and are therefore loud and a bit smelly. The roast pork was OK, a bit mixed and unfortunately there was a clove of garlic hidden underneath.

I can now only rate the beer garden in terms of the ambience, it is a bit uncomfortable near the main street and is therefore not very inviting. The service was good, the onion roast was a nice thick piece, to the point and tasted good. The Kässpätzle is great.

Very friendly service. Service quick. Food very good.

Cozy, clean restaurant, friendly service and very tasty food. I can only recommend it.

Food great, service super nice and attentive. Large portions. Can't understand the bad reviews. Keep it up, we'll be back 👍

A very old, rustic building. Newly spruced up on the outside. Old, robust and comfortable on the inside! The staff is very accommodating, approachable and friendly. The food was very tasty. Ham schnitzel with cheese gratin and homemade spaetzle. Well seasoned! A very nicely prepared side salad and delicious! The only point of criticism: too little meat on a normal portion for my taste! Prices are, for today's times, within the scope of what is possible.

No review.....since we didn't reserve.....no space....😚

The basement is super nice Food is ready very quickly Keep it up 👍👍

The staff is very attentive. The food was tasty and plentiful. The beer very good. The hazelnut nightcap is delicious. We would love to come back.

Beer arrived quickly and the staff was attentive and friendly

The service is very friendly, the roast pork wasn't very tasty

As a foreigner, I had no idea about German cuisine, but after entering this restaurant, I discovered that German food can also be very delicious. The pork knuckle was crispy and delicious, the sauerkraut appetizing and refreshing, and the fries are particularly recommended.

Simple atmosphere, but good Hungarian-style cuisine

The food was good. It wasn't great but it was good. The service is also good, they make an effort.
