Brauhaus 1516 in Ingolstadt

Unfortunately, the quality and opening times are no longer what they used to be

When I think of a brewery, I imagine something different. The restaurant was in a shopping center. The ambience was literally artificially converted into a brewery. Beer was very good. The food was tasty but overall nothing exceptional, not even for a brewery. Service was very friendly and quick.

I haven't been here in a long time. But they still serve meat here, not chipboard that's then sold as meat. Unfortunately, it's a bit quiet, but otherwise it's very pleasant. I can recommend Brauhaus 1516.

Brauhaus 1516 – Bavarian cosiness that impresses During my visit to the Brauhaus 1516 in Ingolstadt, I was amazed by the authentic Bavarian atmosphere and the rustic charm of the brewery taverns. The ambience invites you to linger, and the authentic insight into the Bavarian art of brewing is a real highlight. The menu offers a fine selection of traditional dishes that are freshly and lovingly prepared. Whether hearty and hearty or classic Bavarian – everyone will find something to please their palate here. The price range of €10 to €20 also reflects the good price-performance ratio. The rating of 3.7 stars seems all the more surprising to me, as I cannot understand it given my positive experience. Reviews may reflect one-off discrepancies or different expectations from other guests. For me, however, the Brauhaus 1516 was completely convincing with its friendly service, the inviting ambience and the solid cuisine. Conclusion: Brauhaus 1516 offers an authentic Bavarian experience that deserves more positive reviews. I can highly recommend a visit here to anyone looking for true Bavarian cosiness.

Unfortunately I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone. We once had schnitzel with potato salad and the “Brauer Gröstl”. The schnitzel is still okay, but the potato salad can only come from a bucket. It was already clear to me that a Gröstl (at home) is leftover food, but using diced meatloaf instead of bacon and roast meat in a restaurant and then selling it for the normal price is a bit cheeky. A disaster in terms of taste. It doesn't help if the nice waitress has a funny saying on her lips. Maybe they should consider changing the name to Brauhaus 0815. PS: Instead of using your cell phone at the counter, it's better to walk around the restaurant with a feather duster...

I really liked the food, service and ambience, and the price was absolutely okay

Good service, great ambience, but the food has really deteriorated over the years. When I think about how good the schnitzel and potato salad were a few years ago and how good the quality is now, it's very disappointing. It's still okay and not a disaster, but it's nowhere near what it used to be. And please switch back to the old, normal fries.

Very tasty food and a great presentation of the room

Experience mixed - good service, disappointing food The service was really great and the drinks were absolutely fine too. Unfortunately the food wasn't convincing. The knuckle for 20 euros was hard, soggy and simply inedible - obviously only warmed up and prepared without love. In addition, ordered dishes were served bloody, even though this was not desired. You would expect a lot more for a restaurant of this type. If you just come by for a beer and fries, you certainly can't go wrong - but I wouldn't recommend it for food.

The burger was just average and unfortunately well done instead of medium. The fries okay. The light beer is pretty good. Attentive, nice staff Great ambience with a brewery feeling

Very fast service and very tasty food. I can highly recommend it.

Great brewery, good beer, good place to get dressed up in armor and eat properly at the same time

Staff was friendly and the food was good. The brewery character is very nice. Can you go there?

Very good food and nice service... Food was at the table very quickly...

NO!!!!! For a restaurant that advertises home-style Bavarian cuisine, it's a total failure. The schnitzel was still OK but nothing more. The potato salad from the bucket was a disgrace for the price. At Gutbürgerlich I expect a homemade potato salad. Even the half hour wait was too much in an almost empty restaurant. But the waiter was very friendly.

Food offered on the blackboard outside and menu not available. then ordered another dish. This came lukewarm and was requested to be warmed again, but still only the plate arrived warm. The dishes were still lukewarm, dumplings from the day before, sauce really stale and klumpick pork knuckle, dry like straw. Salad plate really unappetizing, carelessly arranged... some withered, rotten lettuce leaves that were already streaked with brown staff rude unfriendly Restaurant not clean as a whole...seems dingy Plus overpriced prices!!! This is supposed to represent a cozy Bavarian restaurant??? No thanks !!! NEVER AGAIN!!!! *You have shown your appreciation when you receive the invoice!!!

great food - great location - great staff

We had to move a bench to accommodate a wheelchair, the waitress immediately shouted, now you have delivered everything to me. Very unfriendly. Food wasn't good either. never again

Selling stale food, my wife vomited later, I had diarrhea in the morning. Service very unfriendly. The roast pork had old dumplings from the day before on it, disgusting, not recommended

Today on February 12th we were at Brauhaus 1516 in Westpark at 7 p.m. You could see that it was very stressful but the sympathy of the 2 service staff [male young, female also very young] have conviction. Wonderful team 2. The food was also very good 👍 The atmosphere was wonderful, everything was clean.

It's worth a visit just for the beer! The rest is fine too.

Overpriced, bad quality and horrible cooked food

We were out and about in Westpark today and decided to eat at the brewery. The waitresses and staff were very nice. Unfortunately the food wasn't that good. The food gives the impression that a lot of frozen and convenience food is being cooked here. This also explains why two completely different dishes arrived at the same time, about 5 minutes after we ordered. In addition, the food was not so hot, as if it had been freshly cooked, but warm, as if it had been warmed up. The prices are generally ok, I think that some things could be offered cheaper, but the rental prices in the middle of the shopping center probably also push the prices up. The ambience should of course be reminiscent of a brewery. Unfortunately, the atmosphere seems very outdated. We probably won't come again.

The food was plentiful and really tasty but unfortunately "only" warm. The atmosphere is rustic but you would have to clean the corona windows between the seats.

I eat very well like this, but it's just too expensive I can only recommend the peach iced tea

We always enjoyed coming to 1516 and used to eat very well here. Until now. Today we had lunch here and had three dishes. A barbecue burger, which was the best of our meal, although ordered medium and served well-done. The fries were okay. The mushroom cream schnitzel with spaetzle was colorless. The third dish was a large salad. A large portion consisted of ready-made potato salad and ready-made coleslaw. Add dry cucumber slices, halved small tomatoes and pieces of pepper. The green salad was the best part and the sunflower seeds. That for almost 18 euros. All in all, the meal overall wasn't worth the money. The service was very friendly, that has to be said. It's a shame, but we definitely won't be coming back.

I was recently at Restaurant 1516 in Ingolstadt and unfortunately I have to say that my visit was disappointing. The food had the character of convenience food and the quality had deteriorated significantly compared to before. The incident was particularly unpleasant on a Tuesday evening when, despite the official opening hours until 9 p.m., we were asked to leave the restaurant shortly after 8 p.m. and pay in advance. This behavior was very unprofessional and spoiled the entire evening. Due to these experiences, I can unfortunately no longer really recommend Restaurant 1516.

Unfortunately they were better a few years ago so they are still good but back then the food was warmer and better prepared e.g. Roast pork or pork knuckles, the crust was crispier and not as greasy, probably new cook..

The food and the associated prices are a disgrace. The Braumeisterschnitzel costs just under €21 and you get 2 mini schnitzels and a huge pile of potato salad (of course, it costs almost nothing!). Definitely no one will get tired of it. The service is also underground!

Brauhaus 1516 Ingolstadt, what can I say, you have to experience it, the beer is great and the food is simply good. I can only recommend taking a look...

Nice atmosphere and excellent Kaiserschmarren :-)

Beer is super tasty, the waitresses are all super nice and quick and the food is good too. Always very happy to come. It's just a shame that you can't buy the beer to take home.

The food was good, as was the service, unfortunately the drinks weren't my cup of tea, but the beer was said to be very good. I can highly recommend the spare ribs, especially the BBQ sauce was pretty good in combination with the fries.

Das Essen war sehr ser gut. Die Bedienung ()Ausszubildende) war sehr freundlich und sehr zuvorkommend. Gerne kommen wir wieder zum Essen .

In terms of food and staff, it's ok. The ambience could slowly be modernized a bit.

Friendly service, delicious food and a good fresh draft beer, what more do you need after a busy day? Thank you, I'll definitely come back again.

The food was good. The young, dark-haired waitress welcomed us very nicely and warmly and was very attentive the whole time. We had a lovely evening.

Whenever we were in Westpark, we went to the brewery Same yesterday We've enjoyed being there so far, including yesterday with our granddaughter (15 months) We found a spot upstairs and placed the stroller safely in a corner But then we were "shooed away" from there because the boss doesn't tolerate sitting there with a child, high chair and stroller Since we were hungry, we looked for another place and were asked to take a table at the entrance The waiter responsible for us served us reluctantly and very unfriendly The only thing that saved it was the food, although even that has worn off and is no longer what it used to be It was definitely the last time for us as children are not welcome here It's a shame, but we'll definitely find somewhere to go with our little granddaughter

The food wasn't particularly good, there used to be more choice on the menu and it was always good. It had pork medallions with spaetzle for us they weren't medallions.

Quaint brewery pub with delicious beer. I can't judge food. But according to the map, not very cheap. Ambience nice.

The brewery has long since passed its culinary peak. Warmed up and old now seems to be enough for the kitchen as a quality standard. Used to be popular, but not anymore. The very friendly service should not go unmentioned.

The food was perfectly seasoned and tasted simply amazing. The service was very friendly and accommodating, which made the evening even more pleasant. The atmosphere was also very nice and cozy, ideal for a sociable evening. I would come back any time!

Top place to enjoy authentic german cuisine while waiting on your wife to finish shopping.

Food bad, service subpar, once and never again.

Wir haben es mal wieder geschafft gemeinsam Mittag zu essen. Wir haben uns diesmal für das 1516 im Westpark entschieden. Es war recht voll, aber die beiden Bedienungen hatten alles im Griff. Wir hatten ein Mittagmenü (Schweinebraten mit Bayrisch Creme als Nachspeise), eine Spezi, eine Johannesbeerschorle und einmal Käsepspätzle. Wir haben zusammen an die 45€ bezahlt, was ich schon teuer fand. Der Scheinebraten mit dem einen Knödel und Krautsalat war okay, aber leider nichts herausragendes. Die Käsespätzle mit dem kleinen gemischten Salat war auch okay.

I have no idea what the food is like, the kitchen was closed at around 7 p.m. on a Saturday and no one was served anymore

Very comfortably located in Westpark. Price performance is great, but the food is great. The condition quick and friendly. Salad dressing can be expanded.

The service was good, the staff was friendly and the food was generally okay, but a portion of cheese spaetzle for €12.30, which is smaller than the portion of spaetzle with sauce in the children's portion (€5.50), is simply unreasonably overpriced. Plus the ambience, with broken sockets in the base area (children's crawling height) and cobwebs on every corner... It's no surprise that at lunchtime (12 p.m.) almost all seats are free, while Westpark and the other restaurants were very busy. It seems as if the operator is quickly pulling out all the money he can and the store will soon be closed. Q Well the conclusion is that we won't be eating there anymore.

The assessment is really difficult. I remember 1516 from its opening and have been back to Ingolstadt for a long time. Unfortunately there is nothing left of service and good food. Service is extremely bad or let's say non-existent. Food, small portions, sometimes old/too dry or just not worth the money. Ambiance as well known, brewery style but even that could definitely be overhauled after many years. It's a shame but you can't even eat a portion of fries here.

We were there for lunch and both ordered the lumberjack steak. Unfortunately the meat was inedibly flaxy and fatty. The fries tasted like they had been warmed up, but unfortunately they weren't crispy. The cola I ordered wasn't an original and tasted stale, with hardly any carbonation. We still paid almost 50 euros for two dishes with drinks. Because of the complaint about the meat, the waitress offered us a coffee on the house, which we declined. Unfortunately we would not recommend the restaurant.

Very good home cooking with a great ambience...

It was really great back then, always big portions and great taste with friendly staff, now they have made a lot of food much smaller and more economical for the same price and you often get unfriendly from the staff...

Its a great brewery inside a mall. Not really crowded, but actually i don't know why.

The service here is really underground! Very, very unfriendly staff and also absolutely hostile to children! We came spontaneously in a larger group and although the 3/4 restaurant was free, we were asked to reserve a table in advance next time. A meal was accidentally ordered twice and it was no longer possible to cancel it 5 minutes later. The patty in the burger was ready / not freshly prepared, the fries were already cold.

I was eating with friends and their children, and although the restaurant was almost empty (only about 5 tables with 2-3 people each), the service was disastrous. As soon as I sat down, I noticed the waiter's annoyed look. He reluctantly took our order, and when the drinks came, a child accidentally spilled something while passing it on. Instead of fixing the mishap, the waiter just looked annoyed and didn't even wipe. When we signaled to the other waitress that we wanted to order something else, she just rolled her eyes in annoyance. The food was okay, although some dishes arrived cold, as if they had just been reheated. What I found worst was the waiter's statement that we should make a reservation next time so that they would be prepared...even though the place was almost empty! Shortly afterwards we saw the service staff looking bored on their cell phones. Unfriendly service, average food and the feeling of being unwanted - we definitely won't be coming back here. Giving 1 star is even too generous

It can be seen that it is actually a very good German beer hall, but since it was opened in a shopping center, it may have lost its original appearance. When I was there on Saturday evening there were only two or three tables of people. It's a shame to watch.

You can eat well at moderate prices. The service is friendly and quick. Not to forget the great location. To feel good and be amazed. I recommend the blonde beer. Very digestible.

Good food, quick and friendly service

Good beers, good food. Cozy atmosphere.

I was there for dinner yesterday. The prices are now very high for the performance that you later have on your plate. In the end I wasn't full either... I also ordered an extra salad plate because I saw on the neighboring tables that the portions were quite manageable. I chose meat patties with potato salad. The planters were a disaster, they fell apart like a tasteless crumb cake with no consistency, and the planter had no roasting or color from the frying. But drowned in probably dark ready-made sauce. It's really really bad to spend something like that in Bavaria... The potato salad was ok, the side salt for 4.90 euros was the best part of the whole meal. Guys, sorry, that was really nothing, I can do the whole thing better at home without cooking skills.

Everything was very neat and pleasant

Very kind and courteous service, food is fresh and very tasty! Top!!

We appreciate the quiet, cozy atmosphere of the Bavarian restaurant in Westpark. We can really recommend the home-brewed beer. We were very satisfied with the food and the service was also perfect

Delicious home-style cuisine. Service depends a bit on the person, but it is good. The ambience is good according to the conditions in Westpark.

Nice service Quickly prepared and delicious food.

Wir haben heute Abend hier zu Abend gegessen. Beim Betreten wurden wir nicht freundlich empfangen. Die Kellnerin fragte hastig und unfreundlich, ob wir etwas trinken wollten. Wir bestellten ein Bier und eine Fanta, sie kommt mit der größten Größe zurück. Wir schauen uns dann die getränkekarte an und sehen, dass man zwischen 0,3 und 0,5 wählen kann. Ohne uns zu fragen, welche größe wir wollen, bringt sie die größte und damit teuerste mit. Wir fragen, ob wir statt Pommes auch Bratkartoffeln zum Schnitzel bekommen können. Verärgert sagt sie, dass das nicht möglich sei und dass sie auch weg seien. Wenig später sehen wir einen Mann neben uns, der Bratkartoffeln isst! Die Schnitzel waren geschmacklos und zäh, zu den Pommes bekamen wir eine Tüte Mayonnaise und Ketchup auf den Teller. Als sie nach ein paar minuten fragte, ob wir noch etwas trinken wollten, zeigte ich auf mein glas und fragte, warum sie nicht gefragt habe, wie viel wir wollten und dass ich es nicht einmal austrinken könne ... geschweige denn mehr wollte! Sie lacht verächtlich und zuckt mit den Schultern. Wir haben mit ihr über ihr Verhalten gesprochen und gesagt, dass sie nicht freundlich ist. Eine Kollegin sagt dann, dass sie die Beste ist, was ein gutes Zeichen für die anderen Kollegen ist. Das war einmal, aber nie wieder! (Aus dem Niederländischen übersetzt)

The food is very tasty, but the prices are too high... We enjoyed eating the Braumeister schnitzel - it costs over 20 euros!!!! Considering that there is only a potato salad and not a salad plate like in other restaurants...completely overdone!

Monday lunchtime, half of the benches in the entrance area were raised up, looked like they were in a furniture warehouse. Food was nothing! Tk schnitzel and potato salad from the bucket - I've hardly eaten worse in any canteen, but for half the price! The next time I go shopping in West Park I'll get something from Subway that tastes better and is cheaper

I like your brewery, I've been there many times, or rather, every time we visit Westpark we drink a glass of our favorite blonde beer. Unfortunately, the impression of the brewery spoils the service of your employee. Namely women with dyed red hair. If the amount of our bill is less than 10 euros, it refuses to accept payment by bank card or offers to pay 10 euros instead of 8.80, that is, 1.20 euros more. According to her, a payment of less than 10 euros via a bank terminal is not possible, but such a situation did not occur with other employees. It's not about 1.20 euros, but about the attitude towards the customer. This spoils the impression of the brewery, so if we see that it works that day, we don't go in so as not to spoil our mood.

Had dinner there yesterday. You can't recommend it. Currywurst with a handful of fries 12.20. Not even a small salad. The best years of this economy are probably over. Star for the service, otherwise unfortunately nothing.

Great service and the food tastes very good. Most of all I would like to praise the man and the trainees. Very good team

The service was very nice and quick, unfortunately the price-performance ratio wasn't right at all, it had become very expensive and the food was unfortunately not good, it used to be better

Were here for lunch. Large portions, delicious food and reasonable price. The staff was very friendly. Any time

More bad than good. Went there this afternoon and thought we would “quickly fortify ourselves before going shopping”. The restaurant was only half full. 25 minutes had passed before we could order a drink. We already knew what we wanted to eat and the waitress said “I’ll come right away”. Another 20 minutes passed. Then she finally came back and brought us the drinks. After 45 minutes we were finally allowed to order. Chicken nuggets with fries, Kaiserschmarrn, cream schnitzel with spaetzle and a mixed side salad. In the meantime, many possible guests came and went. The waiting didn't just spoil the overall picture for us. 25 minutes later the food came. But only the nuggets, the rest took another 12 minutes. After almost 1.5 hours of waiting, the side salad was forgotten as it was simply soaked in sauce. Kaiserschmarrn was good, child was happy with nuggets and fries, but the cream schnitzel was steep for the price. The sauce (probably) wasn't homemade. The spaetzle is homemade from far away. A pack from Aldi would have done the trick. The ambience itself is great, but needs improvement. Service in my opinion: untrained, slow, listless, unmotivated and not particularly hospitable. Sad! The Bavarian pub culture doesn't deserve this. It's a shame they can't keep up with so few guests. It's no wonder that within 1.5 hours people preferred to leave rather than wait 20 minutes until they were finally “allowed” to order.

We only had something to drink, so we can't rate the food

We drank a beer. It was delicious and the service was very friendly.

We hadn't been there for 8 years and were very disappointed. What happened to the brewery? The menu has shrunk massively - but okay. I'm shocked at the prices! The menu on the www is not up to date - the difference was €5. For 20€ a Munich schnitzel... Sorry, but it wasn't worth it. 2 small and thin schnitzels with lots of breading, potato salad (I'm still deciding whether it was from the Walk or not), a little extra horseradish, 1 slice of orange with a dollop of cranberries and a salad garnish. It tasted good, but nothing extraordinary. This price is massively overpriced - even if you consider that you have to pay more rent here in Westpark. From the service: we sat down at a table that hadn't been wiped down and the drinks were still stuck on it. We then moved around. Later a man sat down at the table and ate a pretzel and when he left, it wasn't wiped down again. And it's not because you can't get there - I don't know as few people as there were this time. No, you have a lot of time - but it's much more important to stand behind the counter and constantly be busy with your cell phone. Dishes that have been cleared away are collected and taken back to the kitchen at some point - and probably only by the "little ones". There's something like Plexiglas on the counter that looks very shabby - no matter what it is or is supposed to be, it doesn't have a positive effect and you could put it somewhere else or come up with something else. I don't know what happened but we didn't have a good impression, plus the prices were off the charts - it was disappointing and we won't be going there again.

Ordering takes forever until the food arrives.... The food is then lukewarm and banished. Then it takes forever until someone comes to clear it and you can pay...we won't go here anymore

Men's paradise when women go shopping. 😏 We men always find something suitable here and my wife always knows that I'm doing well here. The hospitality is friendly, quick and forthcoming.

Good Bavarian cuisine, fast and friendly service

Everything perfect, especially the beers.....

Nice atmosphere, we had to wait over an hour for the food in an empty restaurant and then it wasn't really good. Keller nice, but also not very tangible.

You can sit very comfortably in the back area. The food is good. It used to be open longer, so we often went out to eat when it closed.

First of all: you have to be aware that this is a restaurant in the shopping center that is geared towards large crowds. We were there at an unusual time and were therefore almost the only guests, so the service was correspondingly quick. The facility is quaint and spacious. Now about the food: My companion had the mushroom cream schnitzel. It was average in terms of taste and quantity, neither particularly good nor bad, but worth the price. I had the BBQ burger and it was really, really good. To be honest, I didn't expect that at all. Since we moved to Ingolstadt 4 years ago, we have been searching in vain for a burger joint that can hold a candle to our favorite local joint from home. There isn't a large selection or special side dishes here (you won't find sweet potato fries or wedges here) but the burger itself was, in my opinion, the best I've had in the area so far. Definitely a big recommendation!

Very friendly staff! Feel free to come over for a beer anytime 👌😊

Yesterday I had dinner with two friends. The roast pork was tough as leather and the Diet Coke - without any indication - was a syrup that you couldn't drink. BUT the 2 lovely waitresses (mother and daughter as it turned out) smoothed things over with their charm and their attentive nature. We will therefore give the brewery another chance! Therefore 4 points thanks to the service. Otherwise it would only be 2 points or less.

Yesterday we were back at 1516 for a long time and were looking forward to the food. That was nothing. My pork knuckle was bone dry and nothing came off the meat. It's probably been there for a while. Maybe it's better at peak times. I won't find out, I won't go there anymore.

Certainly not to be found everywhere: your own brewery in the shopping center! Interestingly, right next to the largest fitness center in the city - a rogue who thinks evil... and so the interested guest is spoiled for choice: first train, then consume? Or skip training today? The delicious 1516 beer, named after the year in which the German Purity Law was enacted in Ingolstadt, crowned with a super-friendly culinary delight... Come on, Lent is now over...

The food always tastes good, me and my husband like coming here :)

In the middle of Westpark, delicious food, great service. It's part of a visit to Westpark for us.

The burgers were totally dry and crumbly. The prices are completely overpriced (18 euros for the burger). Wasn't even close to full. Food came staggered and not at the same time. When the waiter asked us if we liked it, we shook our heads cautiously. He didn't care and just left. No more!!

Good food with reasonable portions.

Unfortunately it has deteriorated a lot We didn't like the food, the sauce was far too runny and bland, the service was unfriendly and it's just too expensive for what you get. Nothing is homemade spaetzle out of the packaging and steaks out of the tk. You can get better food at a cheaper price in a Bavarian tavern. It used to be better, unfortunately it won't come back anymore.

Food is good and the staff is friendly

Nice friendly service. Price is quite expensive. OK in itself

Bavarian cuisine, tastes good, unfortunately it has become quite expensive

The service was unfriendly, the food was ok but you don't have to go there again

Good food, fast service, nice service.. Always happy..

The food was too expensive for the quantity and after a short time the cheese spaetzle tasted like the pan in which it was served, but the taste wasn't significantly better beforehand. The service was incredibly unfriendly and slow but always had time to chat with people we knew In some cases, guests who asked for the bill later are charged earlier.

We went in for a beer, we weren't allowed to buy it at the bar or order it in person, we had to wait almost 20 minutes for someone to come and serve us, and at that time there were maybe 4 tables occupied.
