Fegefeuer in Münster

Very tasty and creative cuisine. And a very entertaining service with a dry and quick-witted sense of humour.

Great, ambient restaurant with great food. The waiters didn't hold their tongues and I find that pleasant 😁

Eating out in a different way. But bring time. Always pre-order.

I don't actually write reviews but this tavern is a highlight in Münster. Great location, excellent food and relaxed staff who are friendly and fun. We had a very nice evening there. I would love to go back again. 5 stars. Greetings from Berlin

Something different and that's anything but boring 😃

Unusual food combinations, good idea💡, cozy atmosphere Unfortunately the meat was dry and tough We had 3 different menus, wild boar, duck, venison, unfortunately none of the meat was tender. After dinner, a dessert, a coffee? Takes too long, says the waitress. :(

Greatest location in the city!!! Great service.... delicious food.... what more do you need... and never run of the mill ;-) Addition: my son (8) wants to eat in purgatory every day 😅

Good food and friendly and fast service. The glasses were only dry for a short time.

Quaint restaurant, exceptionally tasty food selection. Service is nice, relaxed manner..

The food is extremely delicious. Not only is the ambience unusual, but also the food combinations. And yet it tastes very, very, very good. We really enjoy being here. I can recommend it to everyone

A very quaint restaurant, great ambience and funny and super nice staff. The food is also super tasty. We really liked it!

A special pleasure, incomparable concept, strong guys.

A medieval/fantasy genre restaurant with friggin delicious food and otherworldly decorations. The owner was also the waiter and he gave us lots of recommendations for the perfect mead and food. He even sat down with us to talk roleplay. for me, as an avid fantasy geek and TTRPG lover, visiting the Fegefeuer was the best thing that could have happened to me (it was even my birthday which made it unforgettable). I will be back many times and I can't wait! Thank you Fegefeuer for the evening!

The food is incredibly tasty, fresh and lovingly prepared, very attractively presented and there are delicious vegan or vegetarian dishes. The ambience is unique and may not suit everyone's taste... but mine even more so and it reflects the name 'Purgatory' very well... and that's how it should be 😉😃

LOCATION The Purgatory Restaurant is located on a quiet street not far from the train station. A large parking garage is practically right in front of the door, so you only have a short walk to the restaurant. AMBIENCE The ambience is rustic, quaint and contributes to the entertainment. The concept of the restaurant is clearly recognizable. The niche that this restaurant has found, it skillfully occupies. When you've been in business for over 25 years, that has to mean something. SERVICE The service guys are extremely attentive and super motivated. There is a lot of demand and we make sure that the guests don't lack anything. If necessary, you can also get advice, which is a big plus. The sprinkling of old German words also makes the service seem appropriate to the concept. EAT Who has a large steak and the sesame chicken. Both tasted great, although I personally think that the chicken had a bit too much sesame breading, as the taste of the sesame dominates the chicken. The portions were large. PRICES We paid a little over €70 for two meals and two drinks for two people. That's a bit higher than you're used to. CONCLUSION It's just fun to eat in a restaurant where people want to do their job. The dishes are imaginative, creative and unusual. The prices are a bit high. If you're in the mood for something different, this is the right place for you.

Great service, matching the ambience. My companion and I felt very comfortable.

A great restaurant with super friendly service. Something medieval but without clinging to it too tightly. Basically a mix of new and very old. There is something interesting to discover on every wall, even in the toilet. It's just fun to sit here for a longer period of time, eat and drink something delicious and snack.

Very unusual restaurant, very friendly manager and good advice

Very good food and service. The medieval ambiance is awesome !

Such a great place. The decor was cool, the servers had an amazing personality, and the food was better than we possibly expected. Don’t be intimidated, come in, be relaxed and have a great time.

Food was great, drinks were great and so was the ambience. Service was rough at the beginning, but later totally friendly.

Great even after the 3rd or 4th time! Perfect mix between a relaxed, open-minded atmosphere and fine cuisine. We recommend

Great local with an interesting concept and great service. Top quality food and very friendly waiters who handled our reservations for 14 people. Definitely worth a visit

Food was child sized for twice the price. I found it almost cheeky as there were no drinks listed on the menu and there were no grams of information about the meat on the menu either. The atmosphere was pleasant, the waiter only wanted to send two colleagues away, which was a bit unpleasant, but otherwise he was ok. Would never eat there again as there was no way I was full.

Nice and slightly different restaurant without feeling fake. The good thing is that you can also go with a group that includes vegans, vegetarians and meat eaters because the menu caters for all three. The food came quickly and was really delicious.

Discovery while staying at a nearby hotel, I was surprised the receptionist didn’t know the place and couldn’t recommend it. However, I went there to experience what other reviewers have posted: a medieval/wizard-y environment with friendly staff tou can share a good laugh with! I had the venison wellington and I enjoyed it a lot! Good beer, good food and good mood; it was an experience and I enjoyed it!

The food here is very tasty and the employees are attentive and regularly ask whether everything is OK or if there is anything else that could be done. You can also pay by card here.

Absolutely delicious with very tasty fruit wines, this walnut pesto is a dream... The best chef in Münster!!!!!

I have to say one of the best experiences in Münster The food, amazing. First restaurant in the city that actually served me a rare stake first try. Service impeccable. The servers speaking excellent English, engaged and took their time to explain things to me, to make sure I choose a Mead that I will like. The most intriguing and beautiful decorations, so special and different from what you usually see. Will be definitely going again.

Great atmosphere, really cool decor. The staff was very friendly and courteous. The titles of the dishes make you want to eat, which also tastes exceptional. The prices are a little higher, but absolutely worth the money.

We were made to feel extremely welcome from the moment we arrived. The food was really tasty and plentiful. The place had a lovely atmosphere, there were only 2 waiting staff and they never stopped at any point during our time there. They stopped to chat and told us about Muenster. Would definitely go back to try more from their menu and will recommend to friends.

I recommend! Friendly team and tasty food

Really cool. Rustic atmosphere, the food plentiful and delicious. And the two waitresses are a lot of fun and get a lot out of it themselves. You just have to join in. So gladly again.

The two of us were there last year. Delicious, hearty, manageable food at increased prices. The entertainment and ambience were really nice, medieval, loud and unusual at the same time, fitting the name. Staff was friendly and competent.

Thank you, we are very happy to finally have been there again after moving. Thanks for the musical exchange ;-)

My review comes a little late, a month later. We ate there two days in a row, the service was fantastic, we had a great time! The waiter and all other service staff made it possible for us to eat there for two days despite the house being full. We'll be happy to come back, even if it takes us two hours to get to Münster. I've never had so much fun in a restaurant. And the food and drink was a 10/10. Maybe we'll see each other at the trade fair in Düsseldorf :D! Kind regards from Cologne!

Waiting 90 minutes for the food, sorry this is just too long. Especially if you have an appetite... It was my first time here and, according to the wait staff, the long waiting times were normal on a Saturday. But too much for me and the day was probably not your day. One table left because it took too long and the other table's order was wasted. The food was ok, but for the price it was out of the question, especially because of the waiting time. The quick-witted, communicative, friendly service cannot compensate for this. The deer was dry and tough, a shame. The gallows time plate was OK.

Delicious food, interesting ambience, even if you sit for hours there is still something to discover, creative menu, friendly service and always in the mood for fun. Whenever I'm in Münster, I like to come back again and again. No matter where you go, I will find you! ;)

Great food, whether with or without meat, absolutely great decor and the staff were helpful, reliable, friendly and funny. What more could you want!

Ambiance and service were outstanding, food was okay. A lot of special meals. All delicious, but a bit overcooked. So it's a little too fried. All in all, worth it!

It is a very nice place with medieval-type decoration. The venison I ate was very good. The staff is very nice and helpful. I would definitely repeat

We were there today on Easter Sunday, it was a very quaint and beautiful suburb, we were served very nicely and felt comfortable. I ate the (gallows plate) and it was very, very tasty. Something really different, with love. Kudos to the kitchen :) We'd love to come back.

Just great. Food super tasty. Service very attentive...what more could you want again. Reservation essential.

The service is attentive and can provide expert advice on the various types of mead and beer. The food was served quickly. We had “Galgenfris(s)t” and “Einmal die 18”. Both dishes were excellently prepared. We are more than thrilled. I don't think I've ever had a better vegetarian dish. Therefore the prices are more than justified.

Anyone who eats in Münster should go to purgatory. No landing in Münster has such a great atmosphere. The service is great, not only super friendly, but also funny and personable. The food is great. But the best thing is the drinks. Everyone has to try the Abt, accompanied by a mead. I recommend the Heide Met. I also come there alone just to drink and have never been disappointed. The prices are also really fair. If you don't stop there, it's your own fault :) Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Great location with a unique concept. A wide range of dishes accompanied by special and unusual service. It tasted great, highly recommended.

Great food! Delicious! Were there yesterday with a larger group! One point deducted because of the high volume in the restaurant and the high prices! The service was very friendly and attentive!

If you arrive here hungry, it's a real treat! The atmosphere is rustic, cozy, the staff is friendly and attentive, and the food is delicious. The selection of dishes is varied and special, and the quality of the ingredients is good. I can only recommend Purgatory."

Super delicious food. Relaxed atmosphere Extremely attentive and friendly service!

Perfect, friendly service, delicious beer. Unfortunately, the price/performance ratio for the food was not right. The Kalberey was characterized by very sweet sauce on the one hand and very salty pointed cabbage on the other. Plus soft pasta combined with glass noodles for 24 euros. Not really recommended!

We went to Purgatory for dinner. Reservation in advance by email went smoothly. The service on site is very nice and authentic. I would particularly like to highlight the menu, which offers a wide variety, including vegetarian dishes, without losing track of the menu. Everyone enjoyed the food. However, especially in the vegetarian dishes, the ratio of “main part” and filling side dish could have been a little more balanced, as most of it was just a side dish. But we would definitely like to come back!

Quaint, medieval restaurant. Just reading the menu is fun. Good, quick-witted and attentive service. Hearty food, always with a special touch. But the vegan dishes are also recommended. I've had a few entertaining evenings here.

Absolutely great location with fantastic food and fun service! Everything is very interestingly designed, elaborate details ranging from the wooden menu to the walls lavishly decorated with antiques. Everything from the food is included: meat dishes and also something for vegetarians. Portions are large and food is fresh and tasty. The waiters may be the owners themselves and are both very committed, charming and funny. There you not only get food, but also entertainment. A number 1 restaurant in Münster!

Disrespectful and unfriendly staff. Food was underground! There was no vibe at all between the service and me! Gladly again! You are awesome!

I have been a big fan of the funeral pyre since the opening of Purgatory. I'm almost always annoyed that there are so many other interesting dishes on the menu that I would like to try - but since I'm always so looking forward to the funeral pyre, I almost always eat it again 🙂 Big praise also to the staff, who always make the visits entertaining!

Good atmosphere, portions a bit small, nice staff, expensive

Insanely great food! Since we couldn't decide what we wanted to try, we made another reservation for tomorrow! The love for the product and the passion for the overall experience are clearly noticeable! If you are in Münster you have to stop by here! Even the music selection is perfect

It's really something different. Great food, good selection of vegan and veggie. It's a bit more expensive, but it's worth it. The ambience and a black Abt (black beer) make a great evening.

From the service to the food, it was great. I've never laughed so much in a restaurant because the waitress had such a funny, cheeky mouth. Exactly my sense of humor. And the food was wow. Now I know what a taste orgasm is. It's something for everyone likes rustic cuisine

Very close to five stars. If you like it tasty and authentically friendly and rough, this is the place for you. Great sauce on the “pyre”. You can pay by card and the beer is delicious. The deduction is due to the fact that we were both still hungry and the price-performance ratio was simply not right. €25.00 for spaetzle with three slices of pork fillet is a bit steep. However, we would like to come back to try more delicious dishes.

Service was okay, I can't say anything special about it The ambience was mediocre, could have been quite comfortable, but there was a large group present who made so much noise that we could hardly have a conversation. Food was absolutely nothing. I ordered a Wiener Schnitzel and bit on fish as this schnitzel was decorated with anchovies. That doesn't work. Unfortunately, I was so disgusted that I couldn't eat anything. Unfortunately I don't recommend it.

Totally awesome shop. Super nice staff and top food. Anyone who likes something a little rustic is in perfect hands here.

We were there with a larger group of people (24) and had a lovely evening. Delicious food, good beer selection, cozy atmosphere and super nice service.

We waited over 2.5 hours for our food!!! When the admittedly very friendly waitress apologized after an hour that it was taking a while, we assumed that the round of drinks then offered would represent compensation. Of course we had to pay for these drinks. No discount or compensation on the bill. Despite the long waiting time, we also had to return the food because the steak was completely cooked through. At least they acted quickly here and served a new medium rare steak. Cutlery for the lobster from the special menu was also not available. Overall, great ambience, but having to wait 2.5 hours for the food without even a round on the house is simply not possible.

Ended up here more by chance. The location was individual, as was our service staff. Some people probably said he was aloof, we liked it. Open, direct, yet friendly. The food was also very okay. We'll definitely come back.

We had a great evening in Purgatory! Super tasty wild boar goulash (the Keilerey), a varied selection of drinks and excellent service in an authentic ambience. The next visit is already being planned - we really enjoyed it.

Es war ein sehr schöner Abend! Das essen war gut, der Service war top. Die Bedienung war durch die Bank weg, sehr sympathisch. Können wir auf jeden Fall empfehlen. Grüße von der Mittelaltergruppe.

Super leckeres Essen, schneller und witziger Service. Haben in einem nahegelegen Hotel übernachtet und hier gemütlich zu Abend gegessen. Sollten wir nochmal nach Münster kommen werden wir auf alle Fälle nochmal vorbeikommen

Interessantes Ambiente mit sehr fleischlastiger Karte und eher mittelmäßigen vegetarischen Gerichten. Dazu recht teuer. Der Service ist ok

Mag für eine Studentenbutze okay sein, mehr aber auch nicht. In der alten Location deutlich mehr Ambiente. Jetzt für Gäste ernsthaft ein Campingstuhl bereitstellen und erst nach Aufforderung ein geringfügig besseren Stuhl ranzukramen reicht schon mal nicht. Für 4 kleine Baguettescgeiben mit Frischkäse und Tomaten belegt 8€ aufzurufen zeugt auch von Profit über Kundenzufriedenheit. Auch Quantität der Hauptspeise eindeutig zu gering für 24€. Ich hasse es wenn ich in einem Restaurant nicht satt werde. Zum Thema Einstellung der Betreiber. Wer es nicht schafft innerhalb von 4Monaten ein Schild am Eingang zu tauschen damit man das Fegefeuer erkennt und nicht glaubt man ist an der "alten Post" der ist für mich einfach nicht professionell, Warum überhaupt 3 Sterne? Die Leute waren freundlich und geschmacklich war das Essen gut, Preis/Leistung passt einfach nicht.

Seit über Jahren super Atmosphäre, kann aber selbst nur für 13 Jahre sprechen, aber auch nach dem Umzug noch großartig

Tolles Essen, lustige Kellner/innen, sehr schönes Ambiente. Da macht Essen Spass!

Sehr nett. Außergewöhnlich... Freundliche Mitarbeiter. Gute Küche. Erfrischend anders.

Don't miss this restaurant if you come to Munster! Delicious food, great beer, amazing staff, lovely place! It's really a hidden gem. They did their best to welcome us even though they were fully booked and they made sure we feel welcome and happy. You're doing great there! Thank you for the evening you offered to us! 🥰

Ein Restaurant der etwas anderen Art. Das Essen ist super gut. Vor allem das Servicepersonal macht das ganze pfiffig. Der Besuch hat richtig Spaß gemacht. Reservierung ist dringend empfehlenswert.

One of Münsters hidden treasures

Wer etwas Außergewöhnliches in Münster sucht, sei es die Ausstattung, die Küche, die Inhaber, dann ist er oder sie hier richtig. Wir hatten einen wundervollen Abend, das Essen war köstlich. Wir haben uns sehr willkommen gefühlt.

Sehr nettes Personal immer für ein spass zu haben. Das Essen ist was ganz anderes aber immer super lecker.

Mega leckeres Essen und sehr gemütliche Atmosphäre

Da passt Alles zusammen. Sehr nettes Personal und die Preise sind normal.

Ganz hervorragender Service, sehr freundlich und überragend witzig mit Niveau. Das Essen sehr lecker und eine gute Preis-Leistung! Immer wieder!

Top Essen, top Service, sehr schnell. Gerne wieder.

Besonderes Restaurant, bei dem man merkt wie viel Liebe und Arbeit in die Räumlichkeiten und das Essen gesteckt werden. Es ist liebevoll eingerichtet und man kann viel Zeit damit verbringen all die kleinen Details zu entdecken. Das Essen und die Getränke waren super lecker. Die Kellner:innen schaffen es sofort, dass man sich willkommen fühlt und sind auch bei vollem Haus für einen Witz zu haben. Unser Highlight war der Tisch neben uns, dort wurde gesungen und Musik gemacht. Das hat unserem sowieso schon tollen Abend die Krone aufgesetzt.

Alles hervorragend! Service rustikal aber super, mit unterhaltsamen witzigen Spüchen! Tolle Vorspeisen und hervorragender Hauptgang! Der Abt ist ein wirklich tolles, malziges Bier! Sicherlich wird der Besuch wiederholt! Vielen Dank für den tollen Abend!

Mega essen. Ich bin komplett begeistert. Service 100 Prozent, lockerer umgangston, gefällt mir. Immer wieder gerne

Tolles Lokal und fantasievolle Dekoration mit Speisekarte, die klangvollen Namen hat. Das einzige was nicht so gut geklappt hat, war das Warten auf das Essen. Wir haben recht darauf gewartet.

Super Essen!Service Top!Gerne wieder

Grandiose Essen und tolles Ambiente

Mit viel Detailliebe eingerichtet und auch kulinarisch gibts hier ganz viel zu entdecken. Es war ausgefallen, lecker und freundlich. Wir sind sehr zufrieden und kommen gerne wieder.

Love it evrytime i was here. The staff are super friendly and funny and the food is fantastic, u get quite a big portion too! The dicke bohnen actually tasted nesrly identical to my grandmas recipe, i couldve cried when i ate the i am not exaggerating! If u want a bit more of a fun and interesting dining experience with lots of amazing veggie and vegan option this is the place :)!

Waren mit einer grossen Gruppe Norwegern dort. Alle waren beeindruckt von der Freundlichkeit des Services und vor allem von den leckeren Schmachtplatten. Köstlich !! Vielen Dank

Bijzondere plek om te eten en ook erg lekker eten! Je proeft dat het vers is gemaakt en het is goed heet. Personeel was aardig en we kregen snel onze bestelling. Aan de dure kant maar als je het geld kan missen is het het zeker waard! Veel en goede vegan opties, al met al een aanrader!

Ein etwas anderes Restaurant mit dem gewissen Etwas. Sehr coole Location. Speisekarte sehr ungewöhnlich, aber da man auf Sonderwünsche eingeht, ist sicher für jeden was dabei. Personal herausragend freundlich.
