Felsbaude Lilienstein in Bad Schandau

Nice view and friendly staff. But they only serve Pepsi, no Coca-Cola, and potato soup costs €12.90.

Very nice place at the very top. Perfect to rest before continuing the hike. The service is very nice and helpful. I recommend.

Fast, very friendly and spontaneously cooperative...great...it's fun...and the view is 6/5!

Unfortunately, there are no small snacks (a sausage with a roll or a snack)—they were all rather large meals. It also felt like everything was frozen, ready-made, and the cake wasn't homemade, not even from the bakery.

Day trip number 4 during our hiking holiday. The Felsbaude lodge on the Lilienstein is a great place to linger. If you want good food, you should definitely try the goulash. The prices are fair and reasonable for the quality. The service and staff are very friendly. We would come back anytime.

Food basic, but it’s at the top of a mountain, a lot better than no food! And I get draught beer, bliss

Unfortunately, the staff is unmotivated. Three employees are bored in the pub at 10:45. When they politely requested a takeaway drink, the request was refused. Of course, they have the right, given that the opening hours are from 11:00, but a motivated employee or the boss would have made it possible at €5.90 per drink! 😉

I don't usually write reviews, but here it is: Absolutely overpriced for this service and the lousy food. A pure rip-off! Hikers can only be advised to carry their drinks and snacks up and find a comfortable resting spot on the rocks.

Great restaurant! Very friendly service, delicious food, beautiful location!

Great place, very nice landlady, cold and delicious drinks - everything we needed after our climb - Thank you

Trip with three small children. We were caught in a sudden downpour on the way up and were completely soaked. When we got to the top, the hut was open, but all the doors were locked. They didn't even open it when we asked. An open parasol would have been enough for us to take a short break. We stopped in the rain in front of the rock hut. Next to us was a family with a child with Down syndrome. It's incomprehensible how someone could be so inhumane. And we're truly willing to compromise and understand. But unfortunately, this isn't something you can understand.

It was a Monday and not very busy. It was the perfect stopover. The food was good, plenty of choice, and the people were friendly. I'd go back anytime.

After a strenuous climb, it's always nice to find something delicious at the top of the mountain. Cold drinks and cakes—something for everyone. Unfortunately, my well-chilled Coke barely had any squirts left, which was a shame. Service was friendly and attentive.

Very nice service. Food tastes great.

The few bad reviews here are nonsense. The girls at the hut do a fantastic job—they're always nice and friendly. What some people don't understand is that everything has to be laboriously brought up there. Things can get a bit out of stock in the afternoon. Relax and be happy that there's something on offer up there at all—we're still in the national park. My pasta was delicious, the beer was cold, and the price was great. I'd love to come back and will recommend you to others. Keep up the good work! 👍🏻

2 euros for a bathroom break when you don't want to eat anything. 3 frozen potato pancakes with 2 spoonfuls of applesauce for a mini Ikea cereal bowl. Pasta with 3 crumbs of cheese for 18.50. A frozen butter pretzel for just under 4 euros. The pricing is incomprehensible and totally outrageous. It's cold inside, there are no cushions on the benches, and the waitresses are confused and don't know which table has ordered what. The only positive thing: we sat at a mixed table and met some great people.

After a fantastic climb to Lilienstein, we had pasta with tomato sauce. Delicious. Great and fast service. Thank you 😁

Perfect hiking destination after the climb to Lilienstein. Very welcoming hosts, lovely beer garden, good selection of drinks and food. Card payments are also accepted. Hats off to what goes on here every day! Some of the reviews are incomprehensible. Who do people think they are? Be glad there's a place to stop for a bite to eat! The prices are justified based on the location alone and not excessive. Large yellow signs indicate that you'll be seated, and that's no reason to complain! You should check opening hours in advance, and closing time doesn't mean you have to have another beer or two left! Restaurant owners also have a right to their evenings without silly comments! To the Felsbaude team: All the best to you and keep up the good work 😊

Very friendly and helpful service staff!

The food was good, the service was polite, but I really didn't like the fact that the lady pointed out that I was drinking my tablet with water taken from my backpack. Even though I was a customer at the restaurant, I had food and then beer.

Great place. Great boss. Very nice staff. Respect for the work of managing this hut.

Fast service, friendly but firm. Reasonable, manageable food and drink menu. Food makes a good visual impression and appears to taste good. The potato soup was good. Amazing in the post-Corona era: Payment with EC (!) card is possible, BUT only from a turnover of €25. Note for the ascent/descent: Except for the ladders, some of the paths are in a desolate condition - be careful when wet!!! However, the team at the building can't do anything about it!!!!

Very nicely located on the Lilienstein, friendly staff, good food. Yes, it is a little more expensive, but everything has to be brought up the mountain and the staff also have to hike up every day. Very nice hiking tour from Königstein.

"The place" opens at 11, so if we get upstairs a little earlier, we will unfortunately miss it. We have to wait until the lady gives us a table. Considering that this is the only place where you can eat there, there are not many places. However, we only ordered beer - we couldn't eat our own provisions. One of the ladies serving was quite loud and constantly joking and laughing with customers, personally it was a bit bothersome for me. I probably wouldn't go there again to have something to drink and rest on the trail.

We went there for a drink after our climb up Lilienstein. No long waiting times, the service was great and organized.

Today we were in the rock hut in bright sunshine. Food and drinks were all good. For the people who are upset about prices and offers, traipse up here every day and do this job. We thought it was totally okay and were happy that there was an option for food here. Thanks

Nice rest after a long hike. There was a choice of both vegetarian and meat dishes. The menu is manageable, but well selected. Fresh cakes are also available.

We just took a short drinking break here and were thrilled by the nice, friendly landlady. We felt welcome and are already looking forward to the next time.

Were there today, but didn't go in because of the smell of old frying grease. The prices on the menu are more than awesome. And the fact that you have to pay a whole €2(!) as a non-guest to use the toilet is out of the question!

Delicious food and friendly service ☀️ the menu is relatively small but varied. I was very satisfied and think that there is something for everyone.

There were 5 of us with you today and it was really great.🥰 We didn't even have to wait long for a table and the service was really cool and nice. Food was also great and the price was completely ok. Your bikers from table 1 will definitely come back

Unfortunately, as a dark-skinned person you won't be served, so we can't say anything positive.

Easter Sunday - best weather. 2:25 p.m. - Cakes all. Free seats? Nope. Basically there is no ice cream. Pee? As a non-guest 2€. Typically East. And then wonder...

Just nice....super friendly, food was delicious, simple menu, but currywurst etc. is always good 👍🏼 was there for the second time, will definitely come back. The girls with their great motivation deserve more than 5 stars. Informal and not a star restaurant, that's always the nicest thing and when you think about how everything gets to the mountain... you don't need a word for it 😃

I had been there once. I had the currywurst fries. My father had the potato pancakes and my brother had the potato soup with garnish. When a somewhat cheeky family man became cheeky upon arrival, the waitress skillfully countered. With never-before-heard Saxon wit, she quickly put him in his place. All standard questions about the location are answered on the map. (See Appendix). Spezi was delicious delicious.

A great excursion restaurant, nice ambience, fast service and a very funny waitress who also knows how to have fun.

The beer is good, the service is friendly but resolute. There was no more food at 2:45 p.m. At 3:15 p.m. the gate to the outdoor area was locked so that no more paying guests could endanger the end of the working day.

small, nice, cozy and nice staff

Very friendly Simple but very good food I can only recommend it

Lilienstein rock hut Great location, delicious food (good after a hike), humane prices and friendly service. From Lilienstein you have a great view in all directions. The ascent is relaxed and varied (northern ascent). We visited the field hut on Saturday in March. Recommendation 👍🏼

We have been coming to Lilienstein several times a year for many years and are guests in the mining lodge. We feel welcome here and are always happy to be able to discuss our experiences with other hikers at the table. Great conversations often arise. We are also very satisfied with the service and the food. In this context, a question for Ms. Leistner (review about a week ago): where have you ever eaten such good industrial soup? I would be interested immediately... In any case, we are already looking forward to March, a good time for all our fellow campaigners... and until then.

Today, with -2 degrees, snow and strong gusts of wind, I took the liberty of putting on my scarf in the shelter of the inn and pouring myself a sip of tea. I wasn't quite finished when the landlady (?) came out the door and said the following words to me: "Please move away from MY window, it looks ugly from inside." - I'll just leave it like that.

Cozy hut with great food and first-class, friendly service! Simply perfect for stopping off.

Cold room, had to sit on my scarf as there was only an old wooden bench. Level snack hall GDR. Landlady very loud, intrusive, addressed everyone as YOU. Heard how a lady was seated with a family at the next table. Original sound: "We'll sit the lady at the table with you!" The three of them sat unhappily in a very small space. From then on I was afraid that she would do that to me too! From then on my food was in my stomach. Abusive towards both parties. The dining room was almost empty!!!!! I've never experienced such impudence! 2 plates of industrial soup, 1 coffee, 1 beer, 2 pieces of industrial cake = 50 euros... the reader judges for himself. I don't come here anymore. For me, the lady meets the criteria of an NPKS.

A miracle, open despite closing times. Drinks well chilled

I climbed the Lilienstein via the southern ascent, which in my opinion is the more interesting ascent. We received a very friendly welcome and our thirst was quenched in no time. The food was delicious and is definitely recommended. Toilets were very clean. All in all, hospitality is very important here. This was definitely not our last visit. With this in mind, all the best to the Lilienstein rock hut team, stay healthy and see you again soon 👋🏻👍 Update 12/29/2024 We felt welcome again today. Food was delicious as always. Even though we had food with us, we couldn't just walk past. Thank you for being open. Happy New Year, see you again soon ☺️👍

Nice place. The staff was very nice, funny and accommodating. After the climb you can have a delicious meal and a delicious beer. The short tour above is also recommended.

Today the four of us had lunch in the rock hut. We received a super friendly welcome, the food came very quickly and tasted really delicious. We can highly recommend the rock hut!!

The 0.4l beer/Radler €5.10. The lady at the counter was a bit overwhelmed: "I wasn't prepared for the weekend." Tables were occupied or blocked with reserved signs. Didn't convince us.

The friendliest inn in Saxon Switzerland. Hospitality is lived here in the truest sense. Extremely friendly staff with a fine sense of humor. We came in with 12 people and had our delicious meals very quickly. Many thanks to the team at Felsenbaude Lilienstein

We ate poppy seed cake and drank coffee/cappuccino there! The cake was very good! The coffee wasn't great, the cappuccino was okay! Since the prices are quite high, we came to almost €20 and there are points deducted; At the entrance it said that you can't pay with a card for less than €15, so I see that I can pay with a card for more than €15! It was more like luck that I still had €20 with me! Wouldn't have gone in if it hadn't said €15! What would have happened if we hadn't had any money with us? Quickly down from Lilienstein to the EC machine and up again?🤔

The lady at the table next to us was coughing a lot. When we wanted to change the table we were told that we either sit where we were assigned or to go outside (even though there were other available tables). The personnel were terribly rude.

Very rude staff (lady with short hair).

Very family unfriendly. Stuffy and bad service. Prices like those in mountain huts in the high mountains, where the food is delivered by helicopter, but with poorer, lower quality. Actual service times only at lunchtime from 11:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., although opening times are advertised from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Absolutely no recommendation. It's better to stop at a café or restaurant in Bad Schandau or Königstein before or after.

We were there on Sunday at 3:30 p.m., according to the notice it was open until 4 p.m. and we were told in an extremely rude manner that they would now close. Not a nice statement that we would like to have a drink but the kitchen is already closed or something like that. Just unfriendly rejections. That alone would be a reason for a complaint, but the cherry on top is the fact that a couple who arrived after us were still served drinks. It's a shame when you treat potential guests like that.

Super nice hospitality in the building. We had a nice and relaxing break. Thanks for that! 😊

We had a very nice stay here and would like to thank you again for the nice service. The food tasted great and, unknown to us, we had a great conversation with our neighbors over a glass of beer.

We visited the “Lustigen Wirt” inn some time ago. Since today we also know a funny landlady who has her restaurant under control very well. The menu is adapted to the ambience. This means there are simple but tasty dishes at reasonable prices. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Beer garden style ambience goes well with the restaurant. There are enough seats. If the weather is very nice and there is an increased number of visitors, you may have to wait a few minutes, but the boss will seat you as quickly as possible. A small note for everyone who wants to visit the restaurant and therefore climb the Lilienstein, we recommend the climb via the northern route, which is a little easier. When you then hike back towards the parking lot via the southern route, you can see and experience everything that defines the Lilienstein.

Despite the wait for placement, it was worth it! Friendly, fast and delicious!

Nice service, funny and friendly 😊

The very last pub I ever experienced, we wanted to sit at a table with six chairs when the waitress came and told us that we should sit at the table with people so that the table remained free for large families. Well, after seeing the finished dishes here, it's a good thing we didn't eat anything. I give my money to nicer innkeepers than up here.

The cake is super delicious, cheese and apple crumble. The service is super nice and the order comes super quickly. Great mountain restaurant, open even in drizzly weather.

Really nice, friendly staff and delicious food in a simple menu...of course a little more expensive but understandable🤗

The GDR is back! We were up 5 minutes before 5pm. We were still able to order and received 2 really fresh glasses of Pils. A little something to eat was no longer possible... Exactly 5 minutes later the payment was made. Afterwards the innkeepers were still there and bustled around a bit. When I asked again to receive 2 more drinks, the decision was rejected... I know that, it's like 40 years ago! Nevertheless, it was written that they wanted to be rated on Google. I have hereby fulfilled this wish.

Very nice owner! Very attentive and fun to have. The food was delicious and came very quickly. The drinks too.

Everything was top notch. Respect for the effort that goes into getting the goods to the Lilienstein.

Super friendly staff with delicious food and of course the area!

Five of us were in the rock hut at lunchtime on August 26th, 2024. At the beginning everything was good. We ordered four drinks, a solyanka and one currywurst with fries. The solyanka was too small for the price, but the fries tasted very good. I actually wanted to go to the toilet again after we paid, but the group decided to enjoy the view first. So I was there again after about 30-45 minutes and explained to the boss that I had eaten here before and asked if I could go to the toilet again. It was then explained to me in a very unfriendly manner that we hadn't ordered/eaten enough here and that I was therefore not allowed to use the toilet. I was pretty shocked at first after that statement and we left. I would have understood if I had been told that I should have left straight away and had to pay money now, but the statement that we didn't eat enough to be allowed to use the toilet is incomprehensible and I won't do that with such expensive prices support.

We were up there on Thursday - actually closed. But since the staff was there anyway, they opened spontaneously. Much to the delight of all hikers. Big thank you😍 and thumbs up. 👍🏻 So we couldn't rate the food. But since we were already preparing for Friday, we could smell: This is going to be delicious.😋

What a beautiful addition to this wonderful natural monument. The performance of the nice staff every day (see last page on the map) deserves respect! You are great!!! I'd love to come back here... 🙂👍

After we accidentally entered the restaurant area "on our own" to sit at a free table, we were harshly reprimanded that, according to the signs, we had to wait outside until a seat was assigned. We had simply overlooked the signs, apologized for it, but were now "punished" by two families who came after us being placed in front of us. This was also commented on as follows: “Now it’s the others’ turn.” I didn't want to come here anymore. I found the boss's behavior and manner very unfriendly and provocative. If the Lilienstein is the only place to stop for refreshments, you might be able to afford such an attitude. However, I think that this speaks neither for hospitality nor for professionalism.

Very nice and quick service, prices are quite moderate for the remote location

No English. Credit cards accepted but only above some amount (10.20EUR is too low), otherwise cash only.

Visit the Lilienstein, the slightly steeper climb is 100% worth it, the view and the extensive terrain up there are stunning. And then, to top it all off, visit the rock hut! Delicious food, very fair prices, you feel comfortable and welcome, and the owner and staff are super friendly. And helpful beyond measure. We lost our bike key and got it back with all of your help, thank you thank you thank you

Super nice garden and very nice and funny service. Definitely stop by!

Pleasant after the climb to the summit beer!

Very friendly and pragmatic staff in bad weather! Praise to the staff.

If you want to experience real hospitality, you have to stop here. Great, super friendly service even though it was busy. Absolute recommendation!!!

Great place to have something to eat and drink after the climb. We liked it, grandma, grandpa and granddaughter

Very good food, nice hosts - always open to having fun

Super friendly service - quick, delicious food (homemade soups) - good views and the terrace invites you to linger and have a coffee. 👍 Please stop by.

I think you get a nice reward for the climb because there is a sufficient and tasty menu and if you want you can even go into the public pool. The toilets in both are also very clean.

Food was very good and the service was nice.

Nice staff, delicious cake, if it weren't for the wasps. So be careful when eating. Otherwise, a great place to rest after a strenuous climb!

I can recommend the currywurst very pleasant outside and in the shade 👍🤣

Great boss... a special place... really nice

It's worth stopping by! Delicious home-made food, freshly tapped beer and very friendly service!

Brilliant, everyone should experience it.

Underground. June 29th 29 degrees in the shade. Arrive, buy ice cream and want to go to the toilet, the toilet costs an extra euro for one person. Small taps in the toilet so you can't refill your normal water bottles. Ask the waitresses if they can refill our water bottles. Don't pretend it's not drinking water. I repeat several times that I don't care, but that in these temperatures I would like to have my water bottle filled with (not drinking) tap water. Don't do it. I can buy the liter for €4.50 a bottle. Finally I give in. We realize that we don't have enough cash on us. Ask if we can pay by card. Does not work either. Only from 15€. They let us go away without water. We would be right back in the valley and could get water there. What about this world?

Nice service, we were there after the rain, so there weren't many people, otherwise it's probably quite crowded there.

Very cozy, very friendly, attentive, very nice place to rest before the descent!

Great and super friendly place to stop for a break on the Lilienstein. Thank you for your hospitality, which unfortunately is not very important everywhere in Saxony. We had beer and cake and that was delicious! Great lawn behind the restaurant. The landlady always has an open ear and her relaxed, laid-back manner makes this hiking highlight a real place of well-being. Everything is perfect here, we would love to come back (perhaps with mountain goats as natural lawn mowers?!? ;-))

I was recently at the Liliensteinbaude and I have to say it was an absolute disappointment. The coffee was not only undrinkable, but also completely overpriced. An outrageous price was charged for a pot of lukewarm water with a hint of coffee flavor. Added to this is the unfriendly service, which makes you feel like you are not welcome there. The atmosphere was typically German – cold and distant. It seems as if they are just looking for a quick profit without any consideration for quality or service. Overall, I can't recommend anyone to visit the Liliensteinbaude. However, if you're looking for bad coffee and rude treatment at inflated prices, this is the place for you. By the way, the parking lot at Lilienstein is another disgrace. You can only buy a day ticket there, and only in cash. No card payments, no hourly billing – absolutely customer-unfriendly. Anyone who is not yet able to offer flexible and modern payment methods these days has definitely missed the boat. You literally feel forced to pay more than you actually need. Overall, this inflexible and old-fashioned parking lot perfectly rounds off the already disappointing experience at the Liliensteinbaude. A little tip: come without a car and take enough provisions with you. Then you can still enjoy the beautiful Lilienstein 😉

After the hard climb 😁. And after the great view, into the rock hut. Food was very tasty, service was also very nice. Can recommend the rock hut to everyone.

We stopped at the rock hut for a quick lunch. The staff was very friendly and the owner also had time for a chat. Our dog was also taken care of. Thank you.

The Lilienstein and the stop in the associated hut are mandatory. What is done there to offer the guest something is remarkable. Some complainers should question how food and drinks get up there. Everyone is welcome here, including our dog. We say Thanks for everything. Even in the chaos, the landlady keeps track.

After a very strenuous climb to the south we got a nice seat at table 58. Food and drinks very tasty. A nice chat with the landlady, who is very open-minded, funny and friendly. We also got a few tips for the mountain and the descent. Thank you again for that. A really nice place. And hats off to their performance, the two of them also come up on foot. Potato soup with maggi herb like grandma's

Very cozy and quiet. Delicious cakes.

Great girls!!! Super Service!!! We were there with our dog on May 11th, 2024 and although there was a lot of activity and no table was available, the boss provided us with two chairs and a table at the side. Simply great!!! I'm a waitress myself and the warmth and friendliness was outstanding!!! That's exactly how I am!!! You immediately feel comfortable and like you are with friends. And the food was great too!!! So absolutely recommended!!!

The portion of pasta with tomato sauce (without hunting sausage) for €9.10 is an absolute disgrace... no 4 year old will get enough of it. When asked about this, the service reacted arrogantly... you could still order a portion - thanks for nothing!
