Daheim im Lorsbacher Thal in Frankfurt am Main

I was here recently with my family. If there were 10 stars, I would have given 100 😂 It was simply perfect: BEST service, amazing food, and a very good atmosphere. BEST Apfelweingaststätte in Frankfurt so far! Thank you so much for this fantastic experience!

I had the pleasure of dining at the Daheim im Lorsbacher Thal restaurant in Frankfurt yesterday, and it was a thoroughly enjoyable evening. The ambiance of the restaurant is inviting and cozy, with a charming courtyard. The atmosphere conveys a true "home" feeling, which gives the restaurant its name. A particular highlight is the impressive apple wine list, which delights both connoisseurs and newcomers. The food is another highlight: The Hessian home-style cooking is freshly prepared with love. The Frankfurt schnitzel with green sauce is particularly recommended—very delicious! The service, led by Stefan, is extremely personable: He and his team are attentive, friendly, and very interested in ensuring guests have a pleasant stay. Overall, Daheim im Lorsbacher Thal offers a perfect combination of traditional Hessian cuisine, excellent service, and a unique ambiance. I highly recommend a visit and am already looking forward to my next visit.

We were there on a Friday evening. Although it was very busy, we received friendly and cheerful service. The food was delicious. There's an extensive wine list. Sitting outside is lovely in warm weather. The price/performance ratio is definitely right. The restaurant is centrally located and easily accessible. I highly recommend it.

Background: I'm Austrian and fond of food. So, I'm always a bit skeptical in Germany. ;) A German friend, also fond of food and active in Slow Food, suggested we meet here. That was a good sign. It actually turned out to be wonderful. We didn't have a reservation, but we were given a very friendly welcome. The service is very good, warm, and has a sense of humor. The courtyard (with the wonderful May evening weather) is very atmospheric, and even the small decorative details are just right. The food was, yes, really good. I had Handkäse mit Musik (the marinade could have been improved, IMHO, but it was still good), Frankfurter Grüne Soße (very good!), and for dessert, out of curiosity, Rote Grütze (which you normally avoid because I don't need that wobbly, flavored stuff. This one was listed as "homemade" on the menu, and it clearly was: nothing wobbly, lots of fruit, no artificial flavoring.) I'll deduct a little for the bread; it was too airy for me; I would have preferred a dense rye bread or something similar. All in all: top-notch! Anyone traveling to Frankfurt soon who wants to eat authentic (and good!) food will be sent to Daheim in the Lorsbacher Thal!

Very chic. A close encounter with Frankfurt culture

First-class service, always friendly and extremely attentive. Best knuckle of pork I've ever eaten!

This restaurant can be recommended; it still has the charm of old Sachsenhausen.

Our former favorite pub in Alt-Sachsenhausen has returned to its former glory: down-to-earth, welcoming, and with high-quality cuisine. It's not exactly cheap, but it's worth every cent. A definite recommendation for connoisseurs!

Food was great. Service was ok, you had to wait a bit long until someone came (even when you came in) but otherwise everything was great and very friendly. Highly recommended. The garden is also very beautiful. Reservation necessary otherwise it can be difficult.

I found the vegan schnitzel very tasty! Thank you very much and see you soon!

Friendly staff, good food and drinks, reasonable prices, cozy location

The best of the best ! Bilhan is the greatest in the world, he personally fed me. 10/10 ! Highly recommend !

Gracias a Dios, una mesa había sido reservada para los cuatro de nosotros para el sábado 6 pm. El aparcamiento era difícil de encontrar en la zona local, mejor ir a pie si se puede. El lugar no estaba demasiado ocupado cuando llegamos pero a las 7 : 30 pm el lugar estaba lleno, los invitados tenían que esperar en la entrada para una mesa. Pedimos un 8 er Bembel de Apfelwein para empezar mientras recorríamos el menú ( echa un vistazo a su sitio web ). Tuvimos el 'handkäse' de entrada habitual con pan integral fresco y mantequilla, seguido de 2 x nudillo de cerdo con chucrut cocido y patatas asadas, otros dos platos fueron Frankfurter Schnitzel y recortes y una ensalada mixta grande. Las porciones son de un buen tamaño, los precios son aceptables, el lugar es ideal para grupos grandes y después del trabajo se reúne , personal amable y educado, bien vale la pena la visita a un original ' Apfelwein Kneipe '.

Unfortunately my cooked rib was “cooked to death”. My husband had the bratwurst with a salad buffet. Supposedly a special salad dressing...dry salad like from the refrigerated counter. We definitely won't come back and won't recommend this Ebbelwoi restaurant . Very exaggerated Oreise for Sachsenhausen. The staff doesn't understand criticism!

Food was good - unfortunately it took a long time

Today we were in Lorsbacher Thal for the first - but definitely not the last time!! It was just too beautiful! The atmosphere in the garden and inside, the food was delicious and the staff was outstanding! Everyone was super friendly, everyone was always happy with a smile and everyone was very attentive! Full marks - highly recommended!

The Lorsbacher Thal is an absolute insider tip (or rather: no longer an insider tip!) for anyone who wants to enjoy authentic Frankfurt cuisine and real apple wine in a cozy atmosphere. As soon as you enter the restaurant you feel welcome - the rustic ambience with lots of wood and historical details exudes real charm and immediately invites you to linger. The service was attentive, warm and competent - you can tell that real hospitality is used here. In summer you can also sit outside in the garden under old trees, in the middle of Sachsenhausen and yet surprisingly quiet. Conclusion: The Lorsbacher Thal is a place where you can experience and enjoy tradition. A must for Frankfurt visitors and a favorite place for locals. I'll definitely be back!

Great restaurant, the food was freshly prepared and of very good quality. The service was professional and super friendly. I'd be happy to come back!

We had a lovely afternoon with our club. Staff and food were very good

All around great! Good food, very nice service and nice atmosphere! We'll definitely go back ☺️

Para nosotros es sin duda el mejor schnitzel kalb en la ciudad. La gente es muy educada y pasa un ambiente positivo para todos nosotros. He estado aquí más de 3 veces y volveré de nuevo

Very friendly and highly motivated staff and delicious food

Will I come back? Of course, I won't go anywhere else! The waitress welcomes you, thanks you for coming and looks forward to serving you. This is a virtue and not an acting tool, authentic and endearing. You will find it 100% difficult to choose the right dish because everything is recommended and impresses with its fresh taste. See you soon

When my veal schnitzel arrived I was very disappointed with the size. 2 small pieces with a maximum total of 80 grams. I complained about it and got another little one later. Unfortunately, they were all soaked in oil and the breading was an oily paste. According to the menu, these schnitzels should be fried with butter. No trace of butter! The answer from the manager was we fry the schnitzels on the grill and have NO pans in the kitchen. I completed a course on how to make schnitzel with Meissl and Schadn in Vienna and therefore know exactly what I'm talking about here! Look at the photos and you will understand. That was an absolute disgrace! My dish was taken off the bill but the evening was still ruined.

Food and location were good. Two of the four waiters seemed annoyed to us, which was reflected in a rude manner. Drinks were once dumped at the corner of the table and had to be allocated by our group (20 people).

Beautiful, sophisticated traditional economy in the heart of Dribbdebach. Gladly again when the opportunity arises!

Very good food, great service. Can only be recommended!!!

What a lovely traditional German restaurant. The staff are lovely Stefan looked after us, he and his colleagues were soo pleasant. I would definitely recommend it.

The food was great! I had a small knuckle with mashed potatoes and sauerkraut, which was delivered super quickly after I ordered. The mustard was particularly tasty and the service was quick and friendly.

A fantastic day there! Friendly service, good food! Cool drinks! Keep it up!

A dream in the courtyard 🥳 Staff Turbo fast and friendly..💖💋

Great staff, great food! Great Ambiance! Only recommended!

Great food! Drinks top! World class service 😉👍🏼 Absolutely recommended! Keep it up.....

Good restaurant with honest cuisine + honest employees!

Food was absolutely amazing! The schnitzel was so tender and juicy- desserts were delicious as well as the Apfel Wein. Service was a bit slow at times but the place was also packed

There were three of us and we all ate and drank differently. Before we got there, we treated ourselves to a little cider tasting, which we can highly recommend. The food was very good and was served quite quickly even though the restaurant was quite full. My companions were there for the first time and were very impressed by the ambience and service. The prices are absolutely okay, because we drank quite a lot the cap was of course relatively high. I can only warmly recommend the Lorsbacher Thal.

Very great restaurant with delicious and traditional German food! My highlight in the Frankfurt Äppelwoi restaurants! Service very friendly and on the ball! Always worth a visit.

A beautiful, typically Frankfurt location with a large selection of typical Hessian dishes and various apple wines. The service was excellent and it's located in the heart of Alt-Sachsenhausen.

Quaint restaurant with a great atmosphere. On a normal Monday it was pretty busy. You quickly see why this is the case. The staff is very friendly and their manner immediately creates a certain feel-good factor. The map is very interesting, offers a lot of information and invites you to browse back and forth for a while. You always discover new details. When it comes to the food, great emphasis is placed on regional origin and good quality. The prices are absolutely fine. We really liked the really good hand cheese, the great selection of ciders and of course the medlar 👍

Full house, great service and delicious food

Top food, top service, top shop.

Nice atmosphere and the goose dinner was delicious with you! Thanks also to Jasmina for the good care and service. We felt completely comfortable and welcome. We'll be back!

Definitely a very cozy place with excellent service and good Frankfurt cuisine and a fantastic selection of ciders. Clear recommendation!

Eine schöne und gemütliche Gaststätte, im Sommer mit einem tollen Innenhof. Wir waren dort zu einem sehr zu empfehlenden Apfelweintasting mit begleitenden kleinen hessisches Snacks - und es gab sogar vegane Varianten und das ohne große Komplikationen. Alles in Allem sehr gelungen. Vielen Dank für die sehr aufmerksame Betreuung.

Very nice, traditional restaurant. The cellars wear traditional costumes and are very accommodating, friendly and quick. A reservation is required in the evening as the dining room is quite small. Therefore it seems a bit squat and loud. The food was very good and recommendations were also made. Conclusion: 5 stars and recommendation.

Nice place where you can have an authentic experience! Experiment the house cider and the delicious schnitzel with green sauce and sausages. I loved the food and the service was great even with a full house. Would definitely be back if I come back to Frankfurt

Vielen Dank!! Es war ein grandioser Abend und dies nicht zuletzt wegen eines ausgezeichneten Apfelweins und leckerem Essen. Auch das gesamte Team hat alles dafür gegeben, in einem ausgebuchten Restaurant ein Gefühl wie daheim zu erzeugen. das ist ihnen gelungen. Vielen Dank Stefan an dich und dein tolles Team

Great from A-Z Great food, unbeatable service, absolute recommendation. We'll be back. Keep it up!!

The service team gave us a warm welcome and really took care of us. Super friendly and cheerful - that's how it should be!

Authentic Sachsenhausen with friendly and fast service and good food!

Unfortunately I can't understand the good reviews. I just want to give my opinion and perception. We had reserved for 15 people and received confirmation that when we arrived we were only assigned a table for 10 people. Showed the email with the confirmation, in the end people had to be seated at the next table, an absolute NO GO! Most of us didn't like the house cider at all and we're all cider lovers, that has to say something. When we asked for something a little sweeter and more tangy, we were brought a dessert wine that was totally sweet and not our taste at all. It was cheeky that the 1l bottle cost €35 and was not communicated beforehand. We wanted apple cider and not an overpriced dessert wine! Waiters were quick and polite, everything was well received, no errors in the other orders, apart from the previously mentioned cider experience. I had the veal schnitzel, the size was rather moderate, some of the fried potatoes were so burnt that they were inedible, couldn't be eaten because they were like coal. The green sauce could have used more flavor, a bit too weak, that could be much better. All in all, unfortunately disappointing, I had hoped for much more based on the reviews and stories from friends.

I've had better value for money at Frankfurter Schnitzel...

Reserved one day in advance for 6:45 p.m., reservation was confirmed. At around 5:00 p.m. (around 2 hours before) the notification came that the reservation would be postponed by 1.5 (!!) hours to 8:15 p.m. impudence.

If you are looking for a rustic, Hessian inn with a cozy atmosphere, you will find it here. I can highly recommend the beef Frankfurter meatballs with mashed potatoes. Of course there are also Äppelwoi from Bembel. You should also, or especially, reserve a table on weekdays.

The big pig's feet are delicious, the skin is super crispy and the meat is not too salty. Every meal is very smooth. The dessert apple ring was the first time I tasted it. The apples were dipped in flour and fried, topped with berry jam and fresh cream. It was very delicious. The atmosphere in the restaurant was warm and harmonious, and the service staff were very kind and caring about us in a timely manner but without any pressure.

Very good food, very pleasant location. We spent €60 per person here with a starter, main course, dessert and plenty of drinks, which is appropriate given the quantity and quality of the food.

The food was delicious and there is a great selection of different ciders. However, the restaurant was very busy and the tables were very close together. In addition, there weren't enough service staff on the road, which meant that everything took a long time.

Wir waren mit 4 Paaren hier und haben quer Beet aus der Karte gegessen, von den Hessischen Tapas über die Tageskarte mit einer Wildschwein Bratwurt bis hin zur Haxe. Wir Speisen waren schmackhaft und es waren alle sehr zufrieden, der Service war aufmerksam und freundlich. Wir werden wieder kommen.

Tolle Apfelwein Kneipe in Sachsenhausen. Im Dezember schön weihnachtlich geschmückt. Der Äppler ist lecker und die Grie Soß ist perfekt. Auch die Frikadellen und die Vorspeisen waren gut. Mir hat es besonders gefallen, dass nicht so viele Touristen da waren, wie in der Schweizer Straße. Mispelchen muss natürlich auch sein. Typisch Frankfurt. Hessen. Im Sommer toller Innenhof. Da kann man verweilen. Wir kommen wieder. Gr Martin

Great apple wine pub in Sachsenhausen. Beautifully decorated for Christmas in December. The Äppler is delicious and the semolina sauce is perfect! The meatballs and appetizers were also good. I particularly liked it because there weren't as many tourists there as Ur on Schweizer Straße. Of course there has to be medlar too. Typically Frankfurt. We'll be back. Greetings Martin

highly recommended. very competent, friendly service. Very happy again.

The two of us ate here. The staff was extremely friendly and very attentive. The quality of the food and the home-made cider also deserve the rating of very good. However, there is a star deduction for the portion size. I had a veal schnitzel for 28 EUR. I accidentally found the fried potatoes under the schnitzel. For the price it could be a little more.

Absolute Besuchsempfehlung.Sehr lecker, sehr freundlich,etwas hochpreisiger , aber Preis/Leistung stimmt und wirklich ein Lokal was in Schmuddelsachsenhausen Zeichen setzt

Best pub in Frankfurt. Top kitchen! Top staff! Despite the stress, the staff is friendly, attentive and quick. Respect. Nice cozy atmosphere. Always happy to go there.

Great food and perfect service. A great evening

Very traditional Frankfurt offerings. Super cozy.

Schön, gemütlich und lecker 😋! Alles perfekt !Danke

Wir waren an einem Samstagabend im „Lorsbacher Thal“ und hatten zum Glück reserviert. Es war voll, der Service hatte trotzdem alles im Griff. Das Essen ist sehr gut, die Idee, Frankfurter Spezialitäten als kleine Häppchen anzubieten, gefiel uns besonders. Preislich passt es, die Leistung überzeugt. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Großartiger Service - mega zuvorkommend trotz Kinderwagen mit dabei. Und das Restaurant war sehr sehr gut besucht

Sehr freundlicher Service. Das Essen war sehr gut, der Preis war angemessen. Insgesamt ist das Lokal empfehlenswert.

Wir waren zum ersten Mal dort und wir wurden bestens versorgt, bedient und mit toller Bedienung versorgt. Vielen Dank nochmals für diesen tollen Abend und Service. Immer wieder gerne. Liebe Grüße an das Team.

Super expérience immersive dans un vrai restau Allemand traditionnel Le jarret braisé de 1KG et les Wienerschnitzel étaient parfaits ! Apfelwein de très bonne qualité Service adorable et attentionné ! Nous étions ravis Vielen Dank !

Super leckeres Essen, tolle Beratung zu den verschiedenen Äppler, schönes Ambiente. Es war alles super. Der Geräuschpegel war nicht störend, es war einfach ein gemütlicher Abend, da wird eben geredet und das geschieht an allen Tischen.

I've been there twice, but there won't be a third time. The food was very good, no question. But on the second visit we stayed a little longer, and when it got quieter, I kept seeing mice running around - at one point even three at the same time. Some kept popping up. No thanks! Something like this simply shouldn't happen in a restaurant.

Great service! As always nice there.

I would highly recommend this traditional restaurant. Super friendly and helpful service. We were able to find gluten free and vegetarian meals which were delicious. Great selection of apple cider, too. Overall, really good experience!

Had the Frankfurt Schnitzel but the portion was far too small. There used to be 2 smaller schnitzels, but today there is only one. The quality is good as usual.

Extrem nettes Personal und ein schönes Ambiente. Die grüne Sauce ist sehr zu empfehlen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt

Special care is taken to create a good and fun atmosphere. Both on the part of the employees and on the part of the guests. A valuable asset that is unfortunately often underestimated. It was very much appreciated when I tried it. We'd love to come back

Great apple farm with very good food and extremely courteous and attentive service!

A wonderful place with a nice atmosphere and delicious food. Gladly again! We recommend a 6 Bembel cider, the Handkäs with music and the schnitzel with green sauce!

Everything exquisite and the staff super friendly

War ein toller Aufenthalt wegen der professionellen Bedienung. Alles hat geklappt mit der Buchung und der Platz war super. Das Essen ist nicht wirklich außergewöhnlich.

Essen war sehr gut. Das Personal sehr freundlich.

Sehr gutes Essen! Aufmerksames und sehr freundliches Personal! Nettes, uriges Ambiente.

Food was excellent and our server picked great wine for us! Everything was wonderful except that it was so busy and we were waiting for 45 minutes for our check. Other tables kept paying and leaving. We gave some grace because it’s Christmas and our server had at least 10 tables, but it was definitely too long to wait at the end. Besides that one issue, everything was fantastic!

Wir waren das erste Mal am 1. Weihnachtsfeiertag zum Mittagessen da. Der Gastraum war voll. Wir hatten einen schönen Sitzplatz an Tisch 17. Der Service war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend und informierte uns au h über eventuelle längere Wartezeit was bei dem Geschäft und Anlass für uns völlig ok war. Das Essen war gut und die Portionen groß wie erwartet in einem solchen Restaurant. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt absolut und wir kommen sehr gerne wieder und würden das Restaurant mit dem Konzept auch gern weiterempfehlen.

Amazing food and even better service! Being away from family on Christmas can be difficult. But the way the restaurant is set up for dining (family style), it felt very homey and comfortable. We were sat next to a very nice couple and ended up chatting for hours after eating and enjoying each other's company!! I would come back again and again!!

It was very friendly and the food was delicious, but it was a little bit lot.

Delicious food and great service

We were there to eat goose. The food was good and sufficient. However, at over €45, not the cheapest choice. Unfortunately, one star was deducted from the food because one of us ordered a vegetarian dish. Unfortunately this wasn't good. Little to no taste. However, a complaint was responded to very professionally and an alternative was offered. Unfortunately, there is also a point deduction for the ambience because the rooms were rather uninviting. The restaurant was extremely crowded and there was hardly any space on the beer benches and you were bumped into by a person every two minutes.

A very cozy place with authentic Frankfurt manu. It is a very historic place which for couple of years has a new management. They do a great job to keep high quality food using local products and producers. Very enjoyable experience with plenty of great local food.

As an American, it is what I imagine a standard German Beer Hall would be like. Seating was at long tables with benches, with no backs. Hooks along the wall provided places to hang your coat, but made it impossible to lean back. The dining room was very crowded and it was very warm. Portions were large, attractively plated and delicious. There was limited English on the menu. I would definitely recommend reservations.

We liked it very much. Service very good. Ambience awesome. And the food is really delicious!

The food was great. I was part of a larger group and all the dishes looked delicious. There was a lot going on that evening, so the service was a bit rushed and the atmosphere suffered from the noise. Nevertheless, I would like to take a look again.

I was there on Thursday with a friend and was absolutely thrilled. Great food, super friendly and attentive service and a great location. I would love to come back. Thanks for the lovely evening!

What a great surprise. As a fan of taverns, I was in the Lorsbacher Thal in Frankfurt-Sachsenhausen for the first and not the last time today. Here there are jugs of delicious Äppelwoi at narrow tables and benches, where people really huddle together and talk, discuss, laugh and even kiss. Top service from Stefan and Sergej, who supported our group of over 30 guests with joy, laughter and genuine interest. Wonderful traditional meal with a twist. Complete professionals, born for outstanding service. As soon as we greeted you, the sentence was: "You're having a wonderful evening. If there's any problem, we'll solve it for you." Thank you for the unforgettable experience.

We spontaneously got a place (recommendation but definitely reserve!!) and had a great evening. The atmosphere is so warm and cozy, the service is excellent and the food is a culinary delight!! Absolute recommendation in Frankfurt!!!

Wir waren heute im Lorsbacher Thal zum Abendessen. Das Restaurant ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet und - trotz seiner Größe - sehr voll. Unbedingt vorher reservieren! Der Service war super nett und zuvorkommend. Das Essen war ein Traum. Wirklich alles hat gut geschmeckt. Kartenzahlung ist kein Problem. Einzig, dass wir einen nichtssagenden Infodruck als Rechnung erhalten haben störte - nur das Finanzamt weiß warum wir den erhalten haben 🙈😉 Muss doch wirklich nicht sein in der Preisklasse. Daher immer nach einer richtigen Rechnung oder besser Bewirtungsbeleg fragen. Fazit: Sehr lecker und toller Service - gerne wieder!

What a beautiful place! A real traditional German restaurant with the nicest staff. We felt welcome from the moment we walked through the door. Service is great, THE FOOD 😍😋 soooooo good!!! Mostly visited by national and international residents. Book a table in advance! 😉
