Die Wurstküche in Tübingen

We were there at lunchtime and had the Käpsele (lentils with spaetzle and string sausages). The lentils were really good – nice and creamy and well seasoned. Plus delicious cooked spaetzle, which rounded the whole thing off wonderfully. The string sausages also went well with it. The portion was generous, so I even had it for a second meal. Added to this is the rustic atmosphere, which makes the visit very pleasant. Definitely a recommended choice!

Great place, really friendly staff and delicious food 😋

This is my first time in Tübingen. The Wurstküche is a really old house with original furnishings. Wood. It crunches so beautifully. We were there on Thursday around 6 p.m. Not reserved. Got a table until 7:30 p.m. Of course it's full there. Many people come and go. I didn't find it that much of a bother as we were all busy eating and my grandson loved the spaetzle. The food is very good and the portions are optimal. So not gourmet in terms of manageability. Of course, as always, it's a matter of taste. Lamb was very good. We would have liked the goulash to have more flavor. Cheese spaetzle is typical here, served with a good salad plate. Definitely quaint and good. I don't have any more experience here yet. Have fun getting to know each other there.

Mega delicious food, top staff and therefore a fantastic experience in a Swabian parlor. It's been a long time since I've seen such friendly and cheerful staff in a restaurant. Great working atmosphere between the colleagues and that has a clearly noticeable effect on the guests. You should eat there for that alone. Added to this is the very tasty food, my recommendation is the lamb chops. The meat was so tender and tasted of high quality that it fell off the bone and the cheese spaetzle that went with it was also top notch. The house beer is a great choice when it comes to drinks. You can taste that it is prepared authentically and with heart. Even though we hadn't made a reservation, we were able to get a table for four after a 15-minute walk. The young waitress really did a great job and you can tell that she enjoys her job. She was very attentive when it came to taking a photo of us and had no problem being in the photo herself when we suggested it. Grazie Mille a te. 😉 I can recommend this restaurant to anyone who ends up in Tübingen, but it's best to reserve in advance so that you can actually get a seat.

Nice and fast service, inexpensive and delicious food! We were there last night and we all loved it! We came spontaneously and were very lucky to get a table! Tip: always reserve! Beer and food was amazing! Tip: sausage kitchen plate! (see image) We'd love to come back! Clear recommendation

Cozy, rustic Swabian restaurant, very tasty food, cheese spaetzle, sausage dishes and the Ox. Great fast attentive service. We would love to come back!

A real recommendation for lovers of diverse Swabian cuisine

Tip top Food service ambience there was nothing to complain about

Have nothing to complain about. Friendly service. Enjoy your meal.

Great Swabian cuisine value for money.

If you love Swabian food, you shouldn't miss the sausage kitchen. It was just great!

Great service! Swabian cuisine 8 out of 10!👍🏻

The leg of lamb is great. Nice service and a quaint, rustic atmosphere.

Amazing Swabian food with great beverages to boot! The meat dishes are next level delicious and the portions are more than generous. Located very centrally in Tübingen, this is a great choice for group dinners.

I'm thrilled. Been there 3 times in the meantime. Always greeted warmly and we always got a seat. We were more than lucky because the restaurant was well attended. Nevertheless, it was made possible. Sometimes you sit at the table with other people. It's always been nice so far. The dog also received attention. So tip top👍😊. Food is delicious and plentiful😋. Rustic atmosphere very cozy.

Yes, especially veggie too. and vegan good selection

A quaint Swabian restaurant with delicious, traditional food and friendly service. The central location makes it easily accessible. Cozy atmosphere and a recommended address for Swabian cuisine!

There is rustic food and ambience here! The food was very good, the service was friendly and quick. Recommendation!

High quality, but also costs accordingly

Very friendly and personable staff Very tasty food.

Excellent restaurant! Delicious food in a nice atmosphere. Many thanks to Raf for the excellent service. We will come again!

Were there with 5 people on a Saturday evening after making a reservation at 7 p.m. It was completely full but the friendly gentleman from the service showed us the free table. The menu is traditional Swabian and should have something for everyone. Even if there was no children's menu, you could order the dish in a smaller portion. Everyone enjoyed it really well. What we didn't know beforehand is that the kitchen closes quite early. The nice waiter pointed this out to us. And even dessert for the junior was possible after the kitchen closed. Shortly afterwards we were asked to pay and to leave a little later. Everything was very friendly, but we would consider it next time and get there a little earlier. All in all, we would come again because of the delicious food and friendly service.

Unfortunately, a not so friendly greeting

Staff was very friendly and attentive. Portions are very filling. The quality of the food is superb. Will certainly be returning here for regular dinners!

It would be nicer if the service was friendly. Unfortunately there is no space here except for one person who tries to help the guests.

Quaint restaurant, friendly, attentive service and tasty Swabian cuisine, highly recommended

Very pleasant, food good, price ok

Attracted by the good reviews, we tried the sausage kitchen today. The service was very friendly and quick. Although the restaurant was full to capacity, the food came quite quickly. The Maultaschen were very tasty. A completely sufficient amount with the side salad. As a starter I ordered a Flädle soup. A very strong broth with pancake strips. Highly recommended. My wife had the sausage kitchen plate. This also tasted very good. The restaurant is highly recommended!

If I could give a zero star, I would give this restaurant zero service. We went into this restaurant on our first night in Tübingen 01.01.2025 and this reservation was done by our hotel concierge in Tübingen. The food were great and the service was done remarkably by an older German lady with glasses. After dinner, we spoke with a younger female staff and requested to make another reservation on Friday, 03.01.2025. She came back few minutes later and confirmed it would be for Friday, 03.01.2025 for 4 persons at 18:00 (6 pm) and we will have same table. She spoke very good English and there is no misunderstanding. We were so happy and grateful. Today, we arrived at the restaurant exactly at 18:00 on 03.01.2025 and we already had bad feeling when we saw that ‘same table’ occupied by others. We were waiting for the staff and were hopeful. The same young female staff came with a male staff, I would assume her manager or some sort. She immediately said that our reservation was for yesterday and not tonight. She was quite defensive and agitated. The manager spoke English to us and told us that no place for us and apologized for the misunderstanding but the female staff blamed me that I made the reservation for 02.01.2025 and my husband immediately mentioned not for yesterday (02.01.2025) but Friday 03.01.2025 and you (the staff) confirmed with us again. She suddenly spoke only German and can’t no longer speak English. To me, food are great, but honesty, customer service and manners matter the most. I will not recommend it. She knew that she screwed up our reservation the moment she saw us from back of the restaurant, to point she did not willing to face us directly and brought the manager to handle the situation. Not a single apology came from her, she insisted it was our fault for mixed up dates until my husband intervened and mentioned it should be for today. We may not speak German well, but we do perfectly understand what you said in German. We of course did take our money somewhere else with better customer service.

Rustic restaurant with Swabian, homemade dishes that are presented at the highest level. The meatballs didn't see a pan, but they tasted great.

We (four people) had a very good meal in the sausage kitchen today. All dishes were very tasty.

The giant rösti was very good, but the pancake soup was only lukewarm. The consistency of the Maultaschen was good. The service disappointing. One had made a reservation and was still seated at the table with other people, even though other tables were free. When we asked whether we could take a free one, we were told that this was generally not possible on Saturdays. In addition, it was very unpleasant that other people's food was constantly passed over us and no effort was made to maintain a social distance. After two hours the table was asked to be vacated. Based on these experiences, no more than one star can be given. You shouldn't eat here on Saturdays.

An old-style German restaurant with traditional Swabian cuisine in the old town in Tübingen. All our dishes were delicious. Prices were just right, and portions were very good. The staff was awesome and attentive. We had one more person booked on such short notice, but they were able to accommodate the last-minute change. It is strongly recommended to make reservations in advance, as the restaurant is crowded during peak hours. Would definitely recommend and come back!

Nice restaurant, but you can't get a seat without a long-term reservation

Nice atmosphere and delicious food.

The food was good. At lunch there is even soup beforehand. So the price was okay. But what really annoyed me was that when we paid, it didn't take long and we weren't exactly asked to leave in a friendly way. The statement: “I need the table for a moment, there are two waiting” or something similar could have been avoided. I hadn't finished my glass yet and so I don't think the reaction is very customer friendly and the guests are put under stress/pressure. It's a shame that we had already paid at this point, otherwise we would have kept the tip. This will be our last visit for now. I want to be able to relax and enjoy the food when visiting a restaurant and not be complimented after a total stay of 35 minutes.

Keller couldn't say which vegetables were included in the side dishes. We waited a long time for the bill, even though there was hardly anything going on (three waiters were talking to each other). Mini portion of Maultaschen soup for 6 EUR. Taste generally below average (roast too dry and quite tasteless). Definitely won't be coming back. Ambience very nice.

Nice quaint restaurant. The menu has many Swabian dishes to choose from. Although the focus is on meat dishes, there is a good selection for vegetarians. The food came relatively quickly despite the full house. I had Maultaschen with potato salad. The food was very tasty and the portions were also decent. Price/performance is definitely okay here. The waitresses and waiters are friendly and well organized and seem well coordinated. I would definitely recommend reserving a table, especially on weekends and in winter when there are only seats inside. The restaurant is well attended. Because of the many visitors, the room is very noisy, so I'm deducting one star for the ambience. Otherwise, a highly recommended and worth supporting restaurant, we will come back.

We had a wonderful dinner in the Wurstküche, which we owe primarily to the attentive and lovely waitress Letizia! We are very enthusiastic about her service, her commitment to fulfilling our every individual wish, her friendliness and her courteous nature!

Large portions, served quickly. The service knows exactly what it is doing. Tasteful home cooking.

Everything was very appropriate and the food was delicious

Very nice service, good food. Unfortunately my upgrade to Käsespätzle was forgotten. Will still come back

The food was dangerously salty, and when we complained they said I can't complain and lied saying I finished the whole plate... this was not true. They also lied saying they checked up on us and asked how it was and we said it was ok.. this was not true. When I politely suggested to pay half which would be more than fair for the most expensive dish on the menu, they quickly escalated and threatened to call the cops.

Disappointing experience. The food was way too salty and when we raised our concerns it was not addressed. Instead of finding a solution, the situation became unpleasant and quickly escalated. I've never experienced anything like this in a restaurant.

Bad experience with salty food - not very accommodating to solve the issue.

Very salty food, you have to say, not exactly the Armin Laschet of the restaurants in Tübingen.

Very tight and small, it felt a bit oppressive.

Has very good food, can recommend friendly staff

Super quaint and great cuisine. We'll be back!

As of a Friday in November, there was no need to make a reservation during lunch hours, and I was able to sit down as soon as I walked in. Although the staff was busy, there was no delay in taking orders because they were busy. It was a comfortable atmosphere for a leisurely meal, and the staff was friendly. The food was delicious too. Swabian regional dishes were written down on one side of the menu, so it was easy to find them. I ordered Kapsele and HerrgottsbscheiƁerla. It is a dish of spaghetti, lentils, sausage, and dumplings from the Swabian region. The price wasn't expensive and the quantity was plentiful.

Very nice waitresses The drinks and food were brought to the table very quickly despite there being a lot of customers and no reservations. The prices are very reasonable and the food was really excellent. Any time again and absolutely recommended

Service, food, ambience, everything was great🚀

Old and beautiful place. It has a history. Abundant and varied dishes. I liked the place.

Great ! A good time with friends in a traditional German restaurant. 😊

Good food and outstanding service.

Very good food. The service was always attentive, but in a restaurant that is full it sometimes takes a while. Urgently reserve in advance and if online then check the reservation again beforehand

Very delicious German food, no matter what you eat, it's delicious. Affordable prices, pleasant service, and popular. Places you should make a reservation before going

The food was great and the lady who was working there was really really nice! We will definitely return, not only for the food, but also for the sympathy of the staff

Quaint restaurant with a Swabian menu

Always great. Very rustic, very good cuisine. The beer from the Schönbuch brewery in BB is simply great. Very present service, friendly and professional. Be sure to reserve!

We had an excellent meal! We'd love to come back!

Beautiful brewery in a typical and welcoming atmosphere with a wide selection of local dishes. After a few years I returned to this brewery. and I once again enjoyed enjoying their specialties. Bella birreria in ambiente tipico ed accogliente with vasta scelta di piatti locali. A distance from this year there was a tornado in the forest. And my new trovato now enjoy the speciality of Loro.

As expected: uncomplicated Swabian cuisine. Plus: Cozy. Very, very friendly and attentive service at the table. Full marks :-).

The food was very good, as was the service. We felt completely comfortable. The waitress was always quick and very friendly :)

Nice Swabian restaurant in a central location. The food was very tasty and the service was extremely friendly

Very nice, rustic restaurant with friendly staff who also respond to guests' special requests❣️Very good price/performance ratio❣️

Hey guys keep it up, was here twice in one weekend. Great food! Service friendly. If the staff knew where your name came from, it would be perfect. After a long search, found it on Wiki, and we were all wrong in our guesses.

I liked everything very much! Very tasty food, we ordered 3 different dishes and liked them all. I liked the beer. It was prepared quickly even though there were a lot of people in the room. The staff is smiling and friendly! Prices are normal for such establishments.

Did not make reservation during my first visit (dinner) and was turned away. The next day we visited again without reservation for lunch, and they managed to squeeze us in for a 1 hour dining (TQVM to the male server). Must order their Lustnauer-Tor-Platte (minimum 2 pax) which has everything. So good. Highly recommended. P/s: the picture was taken after we started the meal.

A very fine restaurant in the middle of Tübingen. The cuisine is great, the service is quick, very friendly and the atmosphere really makes you feel good. We were there on September 30, 2024 with 7 adults, everyone felt very well looked after and ate deliciously. Bravo, thank you very much, we will definitely be back

Very nicely designed menu. Excellent food, sufficiently large portions and reasonable prices. Good cellar beer from the stein is a pleasure.

6 of us arrived without a reservation and also in a certain hurry because the bus left early, the young boys found us a place and served us to the max. Ate very well! Unfortunately we couldn't have dessert due to lack of time. Thank you Die wurstkuche we will gladly return.

Super delicious food! I've already tried half the menu! Nice staff and no long waiting times! Always happy again!

Very nice, rustic restaurant with delicious Swabian food and friendly service. Highly recommended.

Food and drink absolutely top Unfortunately, in the end the service did everything bad that could only be done badly. We made a reservation inside and were asked to eat outside because we were overbooked. As compensation, the first drink was promised on the house. When we paid, two people had a free drink and the other two didn't. After a discussion with two waitresses, we were told that the bill would be correlated... we paid and got the bill when we asked. This was then quickly placed on the table in a very friendly manner and that was it. Unfortunately, Actual No Drinks had been corrected. It's just a shame to lie to guests about a few euros that the boss himself approved. You just don't do it. As we were leaving, our glasses were left on the table. They were only given out on the second request, even though there were only 3 tables occupied in the outside area. Absolutely cheeky! Despite the good food, we will not visit the restaurant again nor recommend it positively.

Delicious food, delicious beer, great ambience, attentive and friendly service

We were there with several people. But we've never experienced anything like this before. At first we were pressed like pressed sausages against two tables and after two hours we were formally ordered out. The tables were supposedly only reserved for us for 2 hours, which was not mentioned when we made the reservation. The chef, however, deserves big praise. the food was very good. But we will still stay away from this restaurant in the future.

Great ambience, very good price/performance ratio, very good Swabian cuisine

Super great restaurant with super delicious food. Was there for the first time today, but definitely not the last time. Staff super friendly and attentive.

Table reserved at 6 p.m., tried to call three times to say we would be late, to no avail. Was there at 6:16 p.m., table was gone. Service is something else.

Nice service, great atmosphere outside, great food.

Very good service, excellent food. Good price.

Very rustic atmosphere, extremely friendly service, very tasty food. And it's inexpensive too. It doesn't get any better! Thank you very much, it was nice working with you!

Quaint local. You can sit outside very nicely. Conditions are brisk and very friendly. The food was really good. The price-performance ratio is absolutely right. It is advisable to make a reservation if you want to sit outside. We'll be happy to come back when we're back in Tübingen.

We've eaten there several times and everything we had tasted very good

Bicycle parking should be better. Unfortunately the fried potatoes on the plate were spaetzle

Very good German cuisine at real prices. Great outdoor area, very friendly service. An enrichment for Tübingen's gastronomy!

We had dinner here. It was really very tasty. The location is beautiful. And the staff was nice and helpful.

We wanted to try a typical German dinner and we got it! I don't remember the name of what I ordered but it was spectacular, we were inside which is very curious and except for the heat which at times is annoying (we are not used to it, in Spain they use air conditioning in the hot months) otherwise great, we enjoyed it a lot. Very friendly staff, we understood each other in English. In price, as in Germany in general, it is not cheap but it was really worth it. Money well spent.

My parents visited this restaurant while traveling and recommended this place to everybody. Cuisine is amazing, food is fantastic and the staff is great too. Unfortunately, they did not remember the names but my parents were there on 11th of August at 14.00. Thank you for making their time in this restaurant so memorable 🌟🤍

Families unfriendly! We won't be coming back!

Excellent typical dishes with the best German beer.

I had the mixed roast. It was buttery tender and the vegetables were all fresh and varied. Good price-performance ratio.

Schnitzel is very nice. Ox was also very good. Lovely local place.

Very good food with a wide selection, even for non-meat eaters. However, it sounds cheaper than it actually is! Nice staff and great atmosphere, especially if you can sit outside. A visit here is definitely worth it!

Super tasty local Swabian specialties

Excellent food, great attentive service.

A really nice place in the heart of Tübingen. Good food, good beers and nice staff. I'd recommend it, if you're in the city and want to try some traditional German food.

Three of us had dinner at this place. Sitting outdoors under umbrellas, normal food, not very "empathetic" service, it almost seemed like a nuisance. Dishes too expensive for the actual quality

Nice outside area. Great food. The service still needs some improvement
