Brauhaus an der Thomaskirche in Leipzig

Today we had a delicious Christmas beer after the Christmas market. We'd love to come back. Steffen and Claudi from Leipzig

The food is good, the beer is home-brewed in different versions. Still a little wistful. Some of the staff are very rustic in their dealings. Sometimes you have the feeling that you are just coming as a wallet and not as a welcome guest. Nevertheless, I would like to make a clear recommendation

It's called a brewery, but it has a very Italian feel to it. The food was very good and the house beer was very tasty.

Very good staff, very reliable and friendly. Pizza was great

Very friendly service. After our visit to the Christmas market we were looking for a place to eat and had almost given up hope of finding something so centrally located. With a short wait we were able to get a table for three, which pleasantly surprised me. + delicious dishes + friendly service staff + good price/performance ratio

Very tasty beer and very tasty food!

After a walk around the Christmas market, we stopped by the brewery and tasted a few more beers. The restaurant is divided into several areas and there was enough space at and in front of the bar for those who just wanted to have a drink. The Christmas beer was highly recommended.

Very nice combination of classic "Italian" and great brewery. Service and ambience fit very well. The food was good too.

Very friendly staff, tasty food and excellent home-brewed beer. Definitely recommended. *Addendum* Unfortunately, the quality of the food as well as the service now leaves a lot to be desired. The cleanliness of the sanitary facilities is also very poor.

There were 9 of us and even in the restless pre-Christmas and football afternoon, with even more people than already, we were served very well, friendly and accordingly quickly. The food was good and none of the 9 of us had anything to complain about. Special requests were implemented and we were then able to start our Christmas market stroll in a good mood and full. That means we were very satisfied...keep it up 😉

Unfortunately there is no clarity when it comes to the invoices or billing. Food was ok (pizza). Otherwise, no clarity on the bills and service rather mediocre.

The food was good and value for money was okay. Service was poor. No transparency when taking orders and invoicing. A lot of stress afterwards. Ambiance was okay, but in general it had nothing to do with a traditional brewery. Good luck, but I won't be back.

Good sausages, very good own beer.

I can't say anything about the beer or the food because we were assigned a table but were then ignored by the waiters and left after about 15 minutes. It was 8:45 p.m. and pretty empty. Service subpar and not recommended, never again!

The two of us went there on a Saturday evening without a reservation. We were quickly shown a table to sit at. Typical brewery furnishings and quite lively there, as you would expect from such inns. Our order was taken quickly, very friendly and delivered after a short wait. My lasagna tasted good, but could have been hotter. My companion's schnitzel with mushroom sauce was good and plentiful, unfortunately the fried potatoes that were served with it were not recommended at all, not crispy and very pale, there is a lot of room for improvement. We chose the restaurant because we were impressed with its pizza last summer.

The brewery offers an unusual concept: a typical rustic brewery atmosphere, but with Italian cuisine. It was very crowded and correspondingly loud, which of course contributes to the authentic atmosphere, but is less suitable for a relaxed meal. The food was deliciously prepared and we enjoyed it. The service was OK, but could have been a little warmer. Overall, a solid experience if you're prepared for the volume and want to enjoy good Italian cuisine in a brewery setting.

Quaint! Tasty food! Very friendly staff!

Uncomfortable, food very tasty 😋, delicious beer. Staff very friendly. See you next time.

Food is far too expensive with mediocre quality. A few wafer-thin slices of onion as an “additional” to a meal where they are simply a part of the meal are something that the management can pay handsomely as an “extra”. If I had asked for it with an ice cream sundae, I would have understood, but with matjes with fried potatoes, completely wrong... even the waiter was embarrassed, but was obliged by the boss... I wasn't interested in 1.50 euros, but here I was really negatively surprised... Even without this "incident": food not recommended, locally brewed beer and service are okay. For that much money you can eat moderately elsewhere.

I was able to meet a very attentive, approachable and friendly staff. The Bach Days are in June 2025 and I’d love to stop by again.

Unfortunately the food was disappointing.

Food was very good, service too!

The portions were too much for seniors.

No parece mucho desde el exterior, pero un lugar muy popular entre los lugareños siempre es una buena señal. La cerveza es muy buena y la comida excelente. El personal es acogedor y amable. En general, muy recomendable.

delicious food and cozy place.. one of my favorite restaurants in Leipzig if I want to eat german dishes.. they also have magnificent beers

Nice brewery in a central location

Furnishings are old-fashioned. Eating is way too much. But super tasty.

A great business in the center, the pizza was on the table in a few minutes after ordering. Excellent beer! They just charge the tip automatically, which I only found out after I paid. So I paid the tip twice.

Large house with more of an Italian core range. It's okay, you can eat okay there, but in my opinion it's not a real highlight.

Typical brewery restaurant with pretty good food and extremely friendly employees

Everything was good, I was there with friends, the service was good and very nice, the food was also very tasty and the house beer is also recommended. Gladly again

Good beer 🍺🍻, nice original Italian service. Thanks Pasquale.

Very good food and very good beer. The two of us were in the restaurant for about 4 hours and had a bill of €119.70. I wanted to tip the waitress 3.30, but she didn't think that was enough. She was of the opinion that I should give her a minimum of €10. I have never experienced such behavior from the waitress.

Food very good. Large selection of pizza. Prices for Leipzig are very OK.

Auf der Terrasse gesessen. Die Kellner kamen mehrmals raus, schauten kurz und gingen ohne an einen Tisch zu gehen wieder rein. Danach war die Bedienung freundlich …

Un lugar brillante en un sábado ocupado cuando en todas partes estaba reservado. Muchos aficionados del Leipzig en la ciudad y todos buscando sentarse y comer. No hicimos ninguna reserva. Excelente camarero nos encontró una mesa en minutos. La comida era excelente. Servicio muy rápido. Y la gente seguía acercándose a la puerta y se les encontraban mesas. Muy, muy recomendable.

The food was delicious and we were very happy with the service. The portions are very good and you will feel full. I can only recommend it!

Great place in the city center on a very lively street Don't be fooled, we ignored the bad reviews and shouldn't have! A frozen strawberry margarita (€9.90) that we take to end up having a strawberry smoothie, in a smoothie glass, good Ok, we report it to the waiter who doesn’t give a damn! Responds in an unpleasant voice saying he double checked. In short... I don't recommend it, especially for the city center..

The location of the brewery is good. Rustic interior, wooden tables and chairs, comfortable to sit on, the service is very attentive to the guest. The selection of food is good, home-style, no frills, visually clean, tasty and relatively large portions. After a stroll through the city, you can feel comfortable eating and drinking here

What a brewery. Wow. Not visible at all from the outside. Food/map definitely needs to be revised. Not so great. Taste ok. But brewery. There's something else going on. Waiters friendly and quick. The inn was extremely full inside, our starter came just 3 minutes after we ordered... is that a good thing or not?! Very expensive for that. As it is now, I wouldn't come back again. Too bad.

Good food, delicious beer, friendly service

The 1st time we ate - everything was fine! We went there after 1 week. When the bill came- they put 10 % to everyone for tip!! 🤣 This is ridiculous, even not legal in Germany!!

Our pizzas and also the salt were ok. We were very satisfied with the service and the atmosphere in the garden is also very nice

Unsere Pizzen und auch der Salt waren o.k. Mit dem Service waren wir sehr zufrieden und auch das Ambiente im Garten ist sehr schön

Although it is located at St. Thomas Church and the house beer is quite good, it was difficult to pinpoint a standout feature. Everything was satisfactory to good. "It seems like a tourist trap, but it's not..." I was told beforehand. In retrospect, I agree. You can have a good time in the group. But... as is often the case on the first date, everything can be okay or good... but the spark doesn't fly. That's the case with me. That's why... don't necessarily listen to me🤷🏽‍♂️

A very tasty meal, friendly service.

Everything was very friendly and good.

I ordered a mixed salad as a starter and penne as a main course at this restaurant. Unfortunately it took way too long and they served both dishes at the same time instead of bringing the salad first. When I brought this up, instead of apologizing for the poor service, they disrespectfully asked, "Do you want your salad or not?" That was very rude and disappointing. Overall it was the worst service I have ever experienced. I cannot recommend this restaurant and only give it one star.

I had a very disappointing experience with the service here. When I paid a €5.20 bill with a €10 note, I was met with rude behavior and unpleasant looks from the waiter. As I was leaving, he made an offensive comment about my nationality. I will never return.

Everything is great: beer, food, interior, atmosphere, service. There is nothing to dig into, and this rarely happens 😁 If you are in Leipzig, you must visit

Very tasty and absolutely okay for the price

There's nothing to complain about. Food good, staff very friendly. The place was full, so the volume was too much for me. But nobody can do anything about it.

Este lugar está situado en el centro y ofrece una amplia gama de comida popular. Personal especialmente amable, organizando un Weißbier aunque no había ninguno en el menú.

Were just here for a beer. Delicious! Atmosphere typical brewery, lower background noise, food looked and smelled very tasty

Always good for drinking a beer in the city.

Very tasty food. The price was a little higher, but it was also completely okay. Despite the store being full, they made sure that we still got a table with 5 people.

After the waiter assigned us (2 people) a large table, it took a long time until we ordered. Since we just wanted something to drink, the waiter was really angry and was surprised that there wasn't a generous tip given how unfriendly we were.

Pizza and pasta were delicious.

Good choice in Leipzig. Very efficient and fast service. The pizza and pasta are generous and delicious. Good price and nice traditional atmosphere

Great team can only be recommended!

Great beer, but unfortunately the pizza was very lacking

The food was great and the service was quick despite the full house.

Be very carefull here. They put another extra €10 on the bill!!!!!

The food was good, the served the food a little late and automatically added a tip to the bill without asking.

Anyone who expects certain things from Brauhaus will undoubtedly be surprised. Great location on the market right next to St. Thomas Church with a large outdoor area and plenty of options to eat inside. Service tried hard but not amazing, the Italian cuisine was edible but no claim to a best price. Good prices for Leipzig.

The waiter was very unfriendly and aggressive! Not recommended!

The pizza wasn't great. The service wasn't very friendly. The environment is OK, just very big. To pay with a card, a surcharge would be added and that doesn't work at all. I pay a lot with a card, knowing that it is included in the prices. I've never had a surcharge on it. If this is to be done, please communicate accordingly in advance.

I ordered an ice cream sundae for which I had to wait an incredible 60 minutes. After the sundae was brought to me, I discovered that half of it had melted. For the very high price, this is a complete disgrace. When I didn't tip the waiter when paying because of this and because of his previously shown ignoring attitude, he appeared aggressive and was extremely unfriendly. In addition, the issue of cleanliness is a very difficult one in the restaurant. There was dirt on the floor and the toilet stank, was dirty and was totally smeared. I've never experienced anything like this before. On the whole I can't recommend a visit and I definitely won't be returning.

We were initially ignored in the beer garden and when we drew attention to ourselves the waiter said, visibly annoyed, "it'll take a while". We then left. 30 minutes of waste of time. The table next door felt the same way as us and they left too. But the ambience is great.

Full, loud and uncomfortable. But good menu, delicious food and friendly service.

Beer was very good, but food was expensive! Price-performance doesn't fit. No recommendation!

We were here yesterday and it was nice and the food was good and came very quickly after we ordered. Prices are ok for city conditions. We'll definitely come back.

The food is poor average, the waiter's reluctant work, when he brought us 2 cutlery for 4 people and waiting 20 minutes to be able to pay is extreme. Don't have a lame grandma for dinner, then I'm gone.

Had pizza with salmon and for €17.50 it was unfortunately only mediocre, carelessly topped with little cheese, so that there was a lot of unfilled dough... that was nothing! The bruschetta was smeared with strange creams...unfortunately it didn't look anything like the menu. The highlight, however, was the extremely unfriendly older waiter with the thick dark glasses... I haven't experienced anything like that in a long time (luckily). He rolls his eyes when drinks are reordered (sorry for the trouble), he probably didn't like the tip (which he actually didn't deserve in any way) either, so the card and receipt were thrown on the table. Not like that! This was our last visit. Innkeeper comes from hospitable… there was no one here. Visit the other great restaurants in Leipzig!

A great restaurant, great food and very centrally located......

Had a great pizza, it was very big and good, the atmosphere was a bit of a mishmash, the service was great, you can visit again.

We ate here on our weekend trip. The restaurant is located right next to St. Thomas Church and has a large outdoor area, perfect for mild evenings. You have to make yourself noticeable to the waitress, otherwise you can easily be overlooked due to the number of guests and wait unnecessarily long. I couldn't figure out why the place was called Brauhaus. It's a pizzeria, they do NOT brew here - maybe ages ago. Regardless, the waiter was nice and brought us the pizza we wanted, divided on two plates plus a large salad. The pizza was large and delicious, the salad was rather carelessly made and the dressing didn't work at all. Price-wise, everything was in the green range - I would eat here again!

Tasty cuisine and quick service

We were in the beer garden and were very satisfied with the service and offerings.

Top food. Great value for money. Right in the center, at the famous Thomaskirche. Furnish and offer like a brewery. You have to like it. But if you don't try it, you've missed out on one of the best restaurants in Leipzig. Outdoor seating is particularly recommended in summer - good ice cream and excellent home-brewed beer.

Price performance top. Large portions. Very tasty food. Typical brewery, loud background noise. If you like it, you don't have to. But the food made up for it.

The restaurant wasn't that great at first glance - but pizza was good and fresh! Beer was great too and there was a fridge with “dry aged” meat at the entrance! And dessert with ice cream is also available right next to it!

The food is subpar. The meat wasn't cooked through, the broccoli smelled from the plate, the fried potatoes were at least 3 days old, etc. We wouldn't go there a second time. The food for 29 euros

Unfortunately, unlike my previous reviewers, I have to say that the food didn't convince me or that it simply wasn't worth the money in terms of performance. For example, we ordered Tomte with buffalo mozzarella for 12 euros... unfortunately the one sliced ​​tomato was very watery and the mozzarella simply didn't taste like anything instead of the familiar typical note. There was not a drop of olive oil and there was no salt or pepper to be found on the table. Our tuna pizza was also a failure, very dry, little fish, but with enough onions. Ultimately, the ambience was great, the service was also ok, but the food (for what we got) was clearly too expensive...

Delicious house beer, fast service. Pizza very big and really good 😋

You don't feel like you're in a German brewery, but rather like you're in Palermo's village pub.....-in the outdoor area.

We just got ice cream scoops to take away. It was actually the worst ice cream I've ever eaten. If there were 0 stars then 0. Has nothing to do with Italian ice cream at all. It immediately ended up in the trash. It's a shame, but there are enough ice cream parlors.

Saturday evening around 10 p.m., great that you can still order food. Unfortunately only pizza. OK no problem. I don't quite understand why only those tables (outside) facing the restaurant should be occupied. It is explained that the staff has been walking a lot all day. I'm confused, what's the business model again? Just cash in, or also work hard for it? By the way, at the table next to me I observe how people deal with other guests, for example a rather insecure guest who is not from here. In a surprisingly direct, if not clumsy way, you make it clear to him that he cannot sit here (on his own terms) and that the kitchen is closed. The guest leaves again. The drinks and pizza are ordered quickly and arrive quickly. The taste is ok, but not enjoyable. The staff seem to come from southern Europe themselves, but they don't do their job anymore. Too bad. A little charm would go a long way here. After the meal, we would like to pay, we look for a waiter, but no one is in sight. No one is in sight for a full 25 minutes. (After leaving I see several waiters standing a little away from the restaurant and chatting, sorry that doesn't work that way) Finally our waitress, I want to pay, she brings the bill, I hand her my credit card, she refuses, asks if we don't have cash and gives a flimsy explanation that the device doesn't work. I don't have enough cash with me (I had previously seen a note in the menu that card payments are possible from €20), so I have to insist on card payment. I am asked to come in to pay at the (mobile) terminal. It works immediately and flawlessly. My conclusion. I used to go there often. I am very happy to have tried the Bauhaus again. The food is still the same as before. But the service is subpar. Only the location and the size of the restaurant should ensure that there are still enough guests. I wish the operator good luck with this strategy, he will need it. They finally lost me as a satisfied guest who would like to come back after yesterday's visit.

Good beer, delicious food and good service

Extremely unfriendly service who didn't want to serve us. We were turned away by him, saying he had enough to do...

Very good service, very good beer and very nice ambience. We would love to come back here

Great pizzaria in the heart of Leipzig city center. The home-brewed beer is super tasty and the pizzas are also very tasty. The staff is always friendly and accommodating and it's great to enjoy the outdoors.

Had pizza and ice cream, both recommended. Friendly service.

We went there for ice cream and coffee. It is incomprehensible that coffee in a restaurant is served in a paper cup. Don't we all want to avoid waste?

The restaurant itself and the delicious beer were positive. Since I didn't want to test the seating options outside due to back problems, I was one of the few guests who sat down inside. This was commented negatively by one of the waiters, asking why anyone would sit down again in this nice weather. The waitress who came to me barely managed to say hello, but she immediately pointed out that you had to spend at least 20 euros. At least the beer and the food came quickly, but after that I was deliberately ignored, as were the guests two tables away. Perhaps under the impression of this questionable service, I thought the pizza was just ok. So I left it with just one drink, which was actually too much considering the demeanor of the service staff.

The pizza was burned and the waiter never returned. I ate the unburned parts. The waiter brought the bill and shrugged his shoulders when I showed him the pizza. Without prior disclosure, a service charge was also added to the bill, and I was told it was standard at their establishment.

The service leaves a lot to be desired. We observed that some guests left because they waited so long for service. Although 2 or 3 wait staff were standing together and chatting happily, it was only when they saw some guests leaving or getting up that they made a move. I ate ice cream that tasted good and drank coffee that I didn't like. Based on our observations, we wanted to pay quickly. He noticed my hand signal for this, but only came after he had served 3 tables. The tone could also be a little friendlier. But well, maybe his mood wasn't the best that day, that can happen. But the customer is king, that's a very old rule that still applies, right?

We stopped there while walking though the city to enjoy a pizza and were pleased with it

Schlechteste Pizza die ich jemals gegessen habe. Sie kam schon kalt auf den Tisch und vollkommen geschmacksneutral … totaler Reinfall (übrigens auch sehr schlechter Service)

Very expensive. The food was so-so. We expected more and are very disappointed.
