Bricco -The Club Restaurant- in Köln

Cool atmosphere, not like every other restaurant, but I had about 200 milliliters of oil on my plate with my pasta with pesto and the pasta was just floating in it. In school grades: Ambiance 3+ Cocktails 2- Food: 5

Well, I come from Stuttgart and went on a short trip to Cologne in September. In the evening when I wanted to celebrate at Vanity, I spontaneously decided to go to Bricco while walking because you could hardly miss the ambience and music. It was simply 10/10 drinks, music, noodles and the price-performance ratio was TOP! I was in Cologne again for Halloween this weekend and had to go to Bricco again because it was so great.

It actually looks very nice there, but the music didn't work at all, so we left again, it was just the kind of music to cry when you have a broken heart Billie Eilish Wildflower?

A few weeks ago I made a reservation for 15 people in your restaurant, for which I also had to pay a deposit of €100. However, when we arrived on my birthday, no one knew about the reservation. The staff was also extremely unfriendly and no attempt was made to clarify the situation or wish me a happy birthday. Unfortunately, such disappointing service is unacceptable and I will not consider your restaurant in the future.

Unfortunately it's not worth it... The ambience is quite nice and the drinks are quite good, but not better than other bars and the price is higher, but you can still do that. However, I really can't recommend the food. I'm not really picky about food, but the pasta there really doesn't taste very good and is way too expensive. I could have done this better at home.

We were there with a group of 6 people and unfortunately it was absolutely disappointing. The service was extremely disorganized and the food was overpriced. We also waited a long time for food and drinks. We won't come back!

Great food, great music, exceptionally bad service, inattentive and long waiting times.

Drinks: ***** Eat: ***** Ambience: ******** DJ Music: *********! Super!

Super deep house, Afro house music on the weekend. The DJ is super personable and also plays great music. The food is also great and very tasty. I can only recommend it.

Unfortunately, the store is not recommended for me. The food was tasty but the burner wasn't, so it wasn't justified for the price. The Virgin Sunrise was ok, my husband had a scumbag and received two, he didn't like either of them at all. We were there with a group of 10 people, we could barely understand the people right next to us, everyone else could only hear "what" shouting over the table because the box was hanging directly above our table. I wouldn't come here again because you're allowed to vape in the shop. I asked the waiter again if it was allowed because we had two pregnant women at the table, but yes it is allowed. Some of these things also have nicotine in them, I don't know how the staff is supposed to distinguish between them. They already had enough to do managing the completely full store. We waited 20 minutes for our first drink at the beginning. My husband got a kebab afterwards because he wasn't full from the food.

Bricco is exactly what it calls itself: a club restaurant. If you're looking for a quiet restaurant for long conversations, you've come to the wrong place. However, if you want the best truffle pasta, courteous service, delicious cocktails and great music, this is the right place for you.

Delicious cocktails, great atmosphere and very friendly service, I can only recommend it!

Great location, great music on the weekend.

I had my birthday here. The staff are super friendly. The food was AMAZING. Highly recommend it!

Bricco is a great restaurant bar! The cocktails were delicious and perfect for the summer weather. A great place to relax and enjoy the evening. Absolutely recommended!

I waited on the terrace area for 20 minutes - I wasn't even noticed. I then went in with a €, thanking him for that

Food was okay but not really good. Unfortunately, the truffle pasta was absolutely disappointing. Drinks from plastic cups are not appropriate for the price. The beer was only half full. The ambience was still convincing. But I can't recommend it!

Unfortunately a very very disappointing experience. The service was subpar, the food arrived cold, and the drinks took forever to arrive or didn't arrive at all. Small and by no means special portions for a lot of money. I definitely won't be coming back!

Light too bright, service slow, waited 45 minutes for a bottle of still water, Cola Zero and beer, after complaining four times, sparkling water, normal Pepsi, and beer came. After trying to order a bottle of Moët, the waiter disappeared without asking with my cell phone. And when ordering wine, a picture of the menu was taken. So incredibly unprofessional and disorganized.

Great music - service and waiting time questionable. Waited 45 minutes for 2 drinks..

The three of us spontaneously went for a few cocktails at Bricco before going to the cinema. There were plenty of free places, no pressure or stress. Nevertheless, the staff seemed completely overwhelmed right from the start (beyond friendly communication at all times). At first we waited about 15 minutes before we were even served. Then we ordered a “Mai Tai”, a “P0rnstar Martini” and an “Espresso Martini”. The cocktails all cost on average between 12 and 14 euros; That's pretty good when you consider that happy hour is offered all around in the bars. Well: the quantity, the taste and of course the ratio of drink to watered down ice must be appropriate for the price. We had to wait a gallant 25 minutes for our order. a) The P0rnstar Martini was just brutally sweet and otherwise devoid of any identifiable flavors. Just about “edible” as a completely sugary sip of juice. b) Instead of the espresso martini, an espresso macchiato was delivered. Disappointing, especially because we had to wait another 15 minutes for the right drink. c) Unfortunately, the Mai Tai had nothing remotely close to almond notes, pineapple, orange or rum. The flavor was so off the mark that no one at the table could do anything with it. The drink went back. We were held up with long waiting times, then incomplete, incorrect and inadequate service. The waitress herself was very attentive and warm; However, the staff at the shakers in the cocktail bar are apparently still on internship. To be fair: we didn't have to pay for the incorrect and unsuccessful order; But we wouldn't have accepted it either. For a stable price of 12 euros, the small filling quantity and the enormous amount of ice cream are not at all right. The furnishings are chic, but the aim of an upscale atmosphere is just like a flashy layer of varnish on a stale basic structure: there is little that is right here in terms of content. The music is considerably too loud (for my taste), at a disco level: the concept is that people eat, drink and talk here - rather difficult given the volume. We certainly wouldn't drink cocktails here again and would recommend the wide range of competition instead. If you have a lot of time, don't care too much about getting what you ordered in an appropriate quality despite the steep prices and, on top of that, would like to have your order shoved in your face by the bass thunder of the music, then this is the right place for you!

Everything was great, cool DJ and music.

Super nice decoration, cool music, nice service & really delicious food! Nothing to complain about!

Unfortunately I can't understand the positive reviews about the food. The food is almost tasteless. I also find the music too loud so it was hardly possible to have a conversation. The cocktails weren't great either. Unfortunately not worth a second visit for us.

My absolute favorite bar in Cologne so far! The cocktails taste really good, the look and atmosphere are just great. The staff is very friendly and the music is also great. I can only recommend!

The best restaurant experience I've ever had in my life! The waiters are helpful, friendly and quick, the food was incredibly tasty and the atmosphere was wonderful. All in all an incredibly great experience that not only meets all standards, but significantly exceeds them. Thank you for the lovely evening💗💗💗

We wanted to watch football and had made reservations days in advance. Our reserved seat was passed on and we were told maybe we have a seat inside. We then stood for more than 10 minutes so we found a solution. They were very awkward and overwhelmed by the situation. The owner didn't care, the staff went from right to left the whole time. The food was nothing special. The menu used to be better. Overall we were dissatisfied with the situation.

Very bad service. Food was also served cold and cutlery still hadn't arrived after 10 minutes. Very small portion and very high prices. You also have to order something to eat even if you just want to sit for the European Championships, otherwise €20 per person just for sitting. The payment process also took 9 minutes. Absolute horror experience

Super Service. The employees put in a lot of effort. The food is very good. 👍🏽

An evening we won't soon forget. It all started when a last-minute tip-off led to a group of originally 8 people being forced to act. Either you accept a minimum consumption of €50 per person or you have to look for something else on the grounds that it wouldn't be economical otherwise. In and of itself i. O. but then please inform us directly when booking and not 2 days before the “event”! We continued on the evening itself, after it was actually pointed out that we had to spend €50, we considered going to another restaurant because we had one person with us who just wanted to drink something non-alcoholic and one person was out due to illness. Our waitress then came out and pointed out to us briskly that “the boys say we have to go in” and underlined this statement with the addition “if you leave you still have to pay the amount!” We have your ID.” Absolutely crazy! Threatening has never helped, you should know that much in the service sector. A gentleman came out, started a conversation in a friendly but assertive tone and pointed out that of course the missing person didn't have to pay and that we could easily get around €50. After weighing up whether we should go through the hassle and try to find something else or make the best of it, we reluctantly went in and tried to do just that. So much for the experience. The food was ok, the drinks were too small and too expensive and the waitress took forever to arrive late at night. In our opinion, the location is absolutely not recommended. There are better restaurants in Cologne that I will go to again and again. But as always, everyone has to know for themselves.

5 out of 5 stars! A perfect place to spend a great evening with friends. Great food. Delicious drinks. Great value for money. The music and DJ were also great and put the table in a good mood! Our service person Isabell was a dream! Such a friendly, funny and thoughtful person!

My husband and I visited Bricco for the first time today. We both had high expectations due to the good reviews, but the opposite was the case. The ambience and atmosphere were really great, the starters were also delicious. Main course was ok, nothing special, but quite expensive. But the staff really did the rest. Not attentive at all, you had to wait ages until you could order etc. When you were able to order, the staff had little idea about the dishes being sold. In addition, you kept trying to get the waiters' attention while they were more or less hiding in the corner and eating. We both come from the catering industry, but we always approach new restaurants without high expectations. But we won't visit this restaurant again. You really didn't feel welcome and you really had the feeling that the employees were just there to chill. & We personally think that asking how it tasted after paying and then clearing the plates after getting up is not possible! Zero catering experience!

One of the best places I have been, we’ve ordered some bottles and got the best service. Reserved a table for us, got the bottle and got free mix drinks as a service. Wouldn’t recommend anything else besides this if you come Köln

The ambience is really awesome, live music was also great but: - Tables are not cleared - Requests are not taken into account - very high minimum consumption if you want to sit for longer than 2 hours - I can't have any other side dish with my meal?! (Ready meals) My spinach was incredibly dry and tasteless, mashed potatoes were 100% a powder mix but the meat was delicious - Food cannot be packed - the water comes bottled from a plant

The staff is extremely friendly and helpful! And speak English freely, also important for us:) We've been there with a little baby, and there was enough space to place the trolley. And there are plenty of non-alcoholic cocktails (and alcohol as well), and the food is very nice. But please note - if you are also going to visit this bar with baby/child, you better to leave before 20.00, after that time music becomes pretty loud. Lovely place!

super cute place with really good food.

We were there for the first time on Valentine's Day. The service was very nice and professional. The food was very tasty. You could criticize the prices as being too high but considering the quality and everything, it was really great!

Ambiance is really cozy! Prices too high, unfortunately everything I ordered was so salty that no one at the table could eat it. It's better not to look into the kitchen. Probably better as a bar...

The ravioli portion was very small, I waited 1.5 hours until I got 9 pieces of ravioli for €16... unbelievable!!

We were there recently. Quite ok

The food was great - just like in the second restaurant Vetrina. We had reserved for 6 people, but there were only 5 of us. Unfortunately, the 5th person arrived 13 minutes later due to traffic. During these 13 minutes, two strangers wanted to sit directly at our table and when we commented that we were still waiting for the fifth person, we were told that we didn't have the table for that long and that we should hurry up (we had the table until 10 p.m.). Once we ordered and then received our food after a while everything was good up until then. When we asked the waitress after dinner whether we would like to drink anything else, we initially replied with “not at all”. Then she came straight with the bill and asked us to leave because there were people waiting for the table outside. We then went outside and we couldn't see any people at the door. To this day, if we had ordered another bottle of wine, we still wonder whether they would have asked us to leave with the wine... unfortunately that was a shame because I had high expectations, especially since the service at Vetrina is great!

Das beste Club Restaurant der Stadt! Einfach geil, was Max und Daniel da auf die Beine gestellt haben! Isa und Melina machen im Service einfach einen guten Job und die Trüffel Pasta empfehle ich jedem!

Had a really nice evening in a larger group! The staff and especially the manager were super nice and accommodating! We would come again and again!

The ambience is simply amazing! It's such a beautiful shop and really great and courteous service without being intrusive.

Service was great and the drinks were just perfect

Das Bricco in Köln hat mich restlos begeistert. Besonders unvergesslich war die Trüffel-Pasta. Was das Gericht so besonders machte, war die Zubereitung direkt am Tisch: Die Pasta wurde im Parmesan-Laib gebadet, was ihr eine unglaubliche Tiefe im Geschmack verlieh. Doch der Höhepunkt war die Zugabe von echten, frischen Trüffeln, die direkt vor unseren Augen über das Gericht gerieben wurden – ein wahrer Luxusmoment. Zum Ambiente: Es ist stilvoll und gemütlich, perfekt für einen entspannten Abend. Auch die Getränkeauswahl ist bemerkenswert und rundet das kulinarische Erlebnis ab. Kurz gesagt, das Bricco ist ein kulinarisches Juwel in Köln, das nicht nur durch seine Speisen, sondern auch durch seine Atmosphäre und Getränke überzeugt. Ein Muss für jeden, der auf der Suche nach einem authentischen Trüffelerlebnis in einem einladenden Umfeld ist.

Essen,Drinks , Atmosphäre und Service waren top kann ich jedem nur weiter empfehlen. Gehört ab jetzt zu meinen liebsten lokalen in Köln.

Mitarbeiter informieren Kunden nicht angemessen und korrekt über Menüauswahl. Mitarbeiter waren nicht achtsam. Essen war gut, leider gab es dir hälfte der Menükarte nicht zur Auswahl.

Super Bar, Super Kellner. Vorallem der Christian. Sehr symphatisch und herzlich. Schöne Atmosphäre!

mega liebes Personal. Vor allem Kellner Christian 🥰

Wenn es möglich ist, die Bewertung über 5 zu setzen, würde ich das gerne tun. Es ist ein großartiger Ort, um den Abend mit Freunden oder einfach zu zweit zu verbringen. Der Service ist erstklassig, die Präsentation der Gerichte ist interessant. Alles, was wir bestellt haben, war sehr lecker. Die Preise sind angemessen. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen. Respekt an den Besitzer des Lokals!

Es macht unormal Spaß hier, Lotte und viele weitere Bar Keeper sind sehr freundlich.

Good food, service was on point and the atmosphere is amazing!

Einen der genialsten Abende hier erlebt 👌🏼 nur zu empfehlen!
