Finyas Taverne in der Altstadt in Nürnberg

Food was very expensive for the portion you receive, otherwise staff and atmosphere was good.

Ambiente und Freundlichkeit erhält 5 Punkte, das hochpreisige Essen leider nur 2. Die Gesamtbewertung leidet unter dem Widerspruch zwischen dem hohen Preis für sehr einfaches Essen, das zudem sehr mäßig schmeckte. Ich spreche von den Suppen! Wir hatten drei verschiedene. Alle drei erinnerten an Kantinenessen, wobei es da auch geschmacklich stärkeres und schwächeres gibt. Die Suppen waren essbar aber eher schwach.

Staff was funny, cheerful and friendly. The atmosphere is exceptional and very cozy. The rustic dishes are very tasty, but unfortunately the tarte flambées are just ok.

Simply a dream from the service to the ambience to the delicious food.

The only thing better than the food was the attentive service staff. The tavern is furnished with such attention to detail that you immediately feel at home. We felt very welcome with a nursing baby and stroller.

Very nice, cozy restaurant with friendly service who serve the guests diligently and quickly. Our stews were very tasty and the punch drinks are also highly recommended. Despite the large number of tables, it is an advantage to reserve in advance!

Very tasty, very great atmosphere, but now too expensive.

How do you keep five ADHDers happy? They are forbidden (rightly and important!) from playing with the candles! Great evening, dear employees, great food! Gladly again.

Super beautiful and lovely people. Definitely I'll come back.

Medieval. You get what you are promised.

Wow, I'm actually from Cologne and what can I say, we've lost a lot over the last few years. I've been to Nuremberg several times but unfortunately I only stumbled upon this gem of a shop last week. Thanks to a new contact in town, I was able to get to know the store. It was fantastic, delicious beer, great people and great atmosphere. Next time I'll definitely be here again and drink a dark mead beer, Update ;) The store is still as magical as it was when I first reviewed it. In addition, I now know that you can eat incredibly well there.

It is by far the best medieval tavern I know. The food is of the best quality, the atmosphere is really nice and the staff are always in a good mood! 😄

The rating says it all. In almost 15 years the tavern has not lost any quality. But I like to miss the Polish. Better reserve in advance.

We were here with a group of around 35 people and had a very nice evening. The organization and communication for the evening were really top. The service team was super friendly & patient! The food was very good and arrived on time as discussed. Once again a big thank you to the great team!

Great tarte flambée, service very nice

How lucky we ended up here. Great atmosphere, very tasty food at really reasonable prices and very friendly staff. Very happy again and definitely recommended!

A wonderful place full of character. We thoroughly enjoyed the fun staff and the garlic bread, fondue, and stew.

Fantastic atmosphere, very friendly and very good staff and the food also tasted really good. Be sure to order the garlic bread for your main course and treat yourself to a glass of blueberry wine or honey mead

We only went for drinks, but what a place 😍 Live the setting, atmosphere and the very very friendly and accommodating staff

We got lucky to get a table without reservation, the place can be very busy. It is worth to try it, the atmosphere is so special and they offer delicious honey wine. Tart flambé was also good.

We were there yesterday for a family birthday party and felt very comfortable right from the start. Very harmonious ambience, pleasant lighting and subtle background music, matching the medieval furnishings. Both the mead beer (popular at our table in both the light and dark versions and also in the lower alcohol version with malt beer) and the spiced wine were very tasty and came to the table quickly. We were absolutely full with a small leek soup and half a tarte flambée (the western version with Camembert and cranberries). Our group also enjoyed the stews (venison ragout, peppery minced pot, beef stew with red wine) and the vegetable casserole. While elsewhere you don't get the opportunity to order a second drink because no waiter shows up after the food has been served, we were very positively surprised here. We were asked several times during the evening whether everything was still okay and whether there was anything else that could be done for us, without being intrusive in any way. There was a little joke here and there, the burned-out candles were quickly and easily replaced with new ones and reordering the drinks or choosing an individual side dish was no problem. In short, we felt completely at home and can fully recommend Finyas Tavern if, like us, you can relate to the medieval-inspired food and drinks on offer.

Was there recently for the first time and can only say that the service is top. Really nice for people who like medieval decor (also the reason why I went to the tavern). The guests were also nice, so I would love to come back!

Always worth a visit. Great medieval atmosphere. Great clay jugs

Für Touris auf Mittelalter getrimmtes Lokal, mit Fellen auf den Holzbänken, defekten Lampen und einer Damen-Toilettenkabine ohne Tür, was wohl "historisch" wirken soll. Leider stehen auf einigen Bänken Metall-Krampen hoch, daher muss man vorsichtig mit seiner Kleidung sein. Und interessanterweise, so haben wir beobachtet, benutzt eine Bedienung ("Schankweib") die Theke für ausgedehnten Stretching-Übungen mit Beinen und Füßen.

If you are looking for an extraordinary place to spend a nice evening with friends or family, this is the right place for you. There is delicious food and great drinks in a medieval atmosphere. I particularly like the Radler Alternative with malt beer and Meet. Unfortunately, we waited a very long time for the food, even when we only ordered some bread.

Real pub in medieval style, very cool 🤙

Very nice tavern, but unfortunately very unfriendly and smug rejection if you didn't make a reservation and just wanted to have a nightcap for the two of you. We would have drunk our tankard of beer in front of the door. But obviously you can't turn anyone away. Certainly not (even with a reservation) again...

Invece del solito menù abbiamo provato questo locale in stile "quasi" medievale. Il locale è abbastanza scuro e ci sono candele sui tavoli. Il personale si presenta in abito tipico. Ottima la Flammkuchen (pizza alsaziana) classica, anche da condividere e anche gli Eintoepfe (stufati), sia di manzo che piccantino. Bevande in bicchieri di terracotta, anche vino al miele. Porzioni abbondanti (c'è anche la mezza porzione) e prezzo giusto

Delicious food, good beer, nice people, cool atmosphere, what more could you want?

You feel like you've been transported back to the Middle Ages, you could say it's a little journey back in time. The clay vessels, as well as the food in their production, are perfectly suited to this era. You can only use the spices that were available at the time. The Silk Road and the supermarket were far away or far from existent! Friendly employees. I recommend making reservations early, especially on weekends. As an individual you are usually given a place somewhere else. Always worth a visit.

We were here with a group of around 40 people and why we were well looked after. The food, which came to the tables on platters and could be enjoyed by everyone, was super tasty, the service was attentive and authentic and the ambience is unbeatable anyway!

Super rustic pub, we only had something to drink but the food looked fantastically tasty, we'll definitely be back 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Top

Not particularly big, but quaint, dark, real. The service...very authentic at the time, attentive and cool. There could be a little more choice when it comes to food, including for vegetarians.

The ambience here is simply unbeatable. From the room to the music to the dishes. The staff is also dressed harmoniously and is always super friendly and in a good mood. The food and drink also fits the theme and is really tasty. It is a little expensive, but you also pay for the entire experience. I've been here many times and will come again. There is no better place to enjoy mead and cheese dip.

Very good discovery, the food is really delicious, the staff and the service are great... I highly recommend this restaurant 👍😋

It's a super nice and warm place.

Absolutely great After the great experience, we went back again two days later. And even though it was fully booked, the friendly waitress found a place for us. The frame invites you to linger. Hearty and extremely tasty food and drinks were served. Despite the full house, the staff not only pampered us quickly but always with a big smile. Thank you for the lovely evenings 👌 LG René and the 2 Frenchmen

The food is super delicious, only the skins are wet and you get beer down your neck 😂😂 No jokes aside, the food was so delicious and the service was really great, the chicken breast, the roast pork and the bread dumplings were particularly good I'd love to be there again

I love this place! Friendly staff, delicious food and drinks, lovely medieval location and we're also allowed to play D&D there!

Great restaurant with super nice staff. The food was very tasty and the atmosphere was very quaint.

Mega location in Nuremberg. Whenever I come to town I try to come here. (Live 600km away) Good food with a cold beer in an earthenware mug.

There were three of us without a reservation on a Saturday, the seats inside were reserved but there was a 1.5 hour time slot for us, it was shortly after opening, but we decided to eat outside where we had more time. The service was all very friendly, the dishes were delicious. We had peppery minced meat stew, tarte flambée and a large salad. My recommendation would be to go at night until the evening as the tavern looks very nice but is also well staffed.

Went there for the first time thanks to a friend's birthday and immediately became a fan. Beautiful atmosphere, the best music, super nice and humorous service and really delicious food. Can highly recommend the cheese dip in bread. The small portion was already too much for me, but leftovers are packed up and still taste good at home. (Seriously, a large portion of this must be enough for 2 people. It's just a lot of cheese. But super tasty.👌) If Nuremberg wasn't over an hour's train ride away, I would probably move in. I'll definitely come back!💗

Fantastic experience. We were transported into medieval ages. The atmosphere is otherworldly, the food delicious, and the staff make sure you're satisfied at all times. I'll recommend this place to all my friends and families visiting Nürnberg and I'll definitely be coming back for more next time. This is a MUST-go place in my book. My only complaint is that the music was some kind of German medieval-like "metal". I would've preferred some calmer instrumental music that fits the age more, but it wasn't bad to listen to either. Definitely vibed to a few of the songs.

Absolutely perfect, I love this place. Whoever had the idea and the skill to create this deserves the highest praise. The food and drink match the surroundings in an amazing way . Thank you

Fantastic atmosphere and fantastic service the Mead was incredible and the food was tasty while also beeing cheap. Must visit.

It's always nice with you. The ambience alone always takes me out of everyday life and gives me a comfortable feeling. Thanks also to the staff, who are always in a great mood :)

Beautiful ambience in medieval style, which immediately captivates everyone. It's perfect for people who are traveling alone, because the huge tables mean you never eat alone and you can quickly start a conversation.

Extremely atmospheric tavern with top quality food and drinks and great quality/price balance. We were lucky to have Peaches serve us. His service (in English!) was outstanding and made the evening even better. Would absolutely visit again if given the chance. Don't miss this for lunch, dinner or just drinks.

und eintauchen in eine andere Zeit als das Essen noch in Kesseln auf der Feuerstelle gekocht und gehackte Eisschollen an bestimmten Braumonaten,dem unterirdisch in Gruben oder Kellern gelagerten Bier Kühlung verschaffte um dem Verderb vorzubeugen. Allerdings,auch wenn Nürnberg ja immer gerne mit Mittelalterlichem assoziiert wird,so ist diese Taverne doch etwas anderes. Denn hier geht's speziell auch von der Einrichtung her mehr ins allgemeine Mittelalter,statt dem typischen Nämbercher Mittelalter"klausenstil",was jedoch dem Ganzen nicht im Geringsten schadet. Angesichts der Sitzgelegenheiten,sowie der Deko und dem ausgeschenkten Met,hat das ganze doch ein wenig nordisches Flair,was aber für diejenigen Personen welche schon immer Nordmänner & Frauen sein wollten,absolut entgegen kommt. Man braucht also nicht extra einen Mittelaltermarkt oder ein Event aufsuchen, Klamotten an und einen schönen Abend wie vor etlichen hunderten von Jahren in Finyas Taverne genießen. Auch wenn wir nur die Bier-&Mettrunke unsere Kehlen hinabfließen ließen,so versprechen wir doch nochmal's zu kommen um die hausgemachten Eintöpfe (und vor allem die Käsetunke) und Flammkuchen zu testen,sowie uns nach flüssigem Einstieg eine deftige Räucher-oder Käseplatte zu basteln. Jedoch ob für Städtisches Altertum Affine oder Nordmannfans ,man MUSS diese Taverne einmal gesehen und erlebt haben,denn selbst gute Bilder schaffen es nicht ansatzweise das Hammer Flair rüberkommen zu lassen. Und abends auf der Terrasse mit Kerzenschein und den leicht gelblich schimmernden Laternen der Gasse,kommt dann doch bissi Nämbercher Altertumsfeeling auf.

Medieval place, excellent food and service

Ate well, drank great and the staff were really great! You immediately feel comfortable.

The food here was delicious. The beef stew was full of meat and was delicious. The mead was excellent and the sausage platter was very yummy

The food was simple but delicious. I loved the sausage platter and beef stew. The mead was wonderful, it tasted just like my own back home.

Medieval cradle lit ambiance. Had the beef stew and helles beer which were good.

The honey beer here is a class apart. The atmosphere of this place, even the waiters and everything, is just like a whole experience. A highly recommended experience. I recommend booking a table a.k.a reserving before coming as it can get full pretty quickly. But it's worth it. I love this place. I got garlic bread the first time i was here and it was really hard to eat, but i think it was just that day as my friends had a totally different item served under the same title which was really good.

Had a lovely evening during the week too. Thanks

Stumbled by accident this gem - a night to remember. Let the waiter order for us freely - was amazed by the food and drinks. The mead was fantastic! A must visit place!

Delicious food and ambience. Unfortunately, when there's a lot going on, it quickly becomes loud. Prices for drinks are relatively high.

Very nice tavern with a very great, rustic atmosphere. Really worth seeing for medieval fans and also worth a visit. The food is delicious, the service is great. The prices are a little higher, but ok given the atmosphere. The only criticism: We ordered extra bread for our cheese dip and only got 3 half slices of bread. A little more bread for dipping would be nicer, regardless of whether you order extra bread or not. 😊 otherwise everything is great.

Third time: fully convinced again! Were there yesterday and everything from the service to the food and drink was perfect! Thats how it is suppost to be. Second time: Made a special stopover to go to the tavern again. This was closed without notice, although according to the opening times it should have been open. No notice on the Internet or Facebook... a hundred kilometer detour made for free... First time: Great shop! Delicious food, inexpensive beer, great ambience and super nice staff. It's a great evening!

I celebrated with 30 people in this wonderful tavern and can only report positive things. I was overwhelmed by the organization, the atmosphere was authentic and cozy, the staff was friendly and very attentive and all the guests were enthusiastic. Thank you for this unforgettable evening!

A must visit on every trip to Nuremberg. We also use this tavern to play DnD.

A must if you are in Nuremberg, spent the whole evening there until late into the night, enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere, drank a beer or two and enjoyed the delicious food, the prices are completely reasonable for what you get there and a wonderful ambience, great friendly staff and a unique experience, thank you very much for your hospitality. If we're in Nuremberg again, we'll be happy to come back!

Mega cool tavern, I really felt like I was transported back in time

We went there spontaneously for dinner yesterday. Unfortunately there was no more gluten-free bread as it was very busy on Saturday, I was told. I really wanted this cheese dip but without bread, well not so much. But still found something and was totally thrilled. Very tasty, great service (both) and a nice atmosphere. Thank you very much 😊 I'll definitely be back

Honestly, the nerd in me jumps for joy in Finya's tavern. The food is rustic, but digestible and varied enough so that there is something for most people. The service is personable and humorous, in addition to being dressed appropriately for the ambience. But the ambience is definitely the star of this place. From fur-lined wooden benches and tables, to clay dishes and candles, to the antlers and axes on the walls, Finya's tavern makes you feel like a character in a DnD game. And in keeping with the fact that every good DnD campaign begins in a tavern, you get to know like-minded people every time you visit. I've never met anyone at Finya who is NOT either a Pen&Paper player or a LARPer... or both! Best of all, Magic: The Gathering, Warhammer tabletop and an open attitude towards unusual personalities. At Finya you forget your problems with good food, good music and good company. The bill only hurts half as much.

Update: I kept my promise, and I visit again last night and it is still amazing :) I loved the place so much I visited this tavern two nights in a row and spent in total 8 hours!!! I really loved that they have a special song for closing Andrea Bocelli for Friday and feierabend for saturday :) I need to add a side note: I am extremely grateful to the serving lady ( i hope sees) she kindly replaced my helles bier with honey beer. I am planning to visit again in two weeks i hope i can update this review with further good memories...

An epic location 🤘🏼. Warm atmosphere, super chilled guests and a super humorous team. I can only recommend!

Think it's great! The conditions are always friendly and nice :) I think the drinks prices are completely reasonable, but I find the food really a bit expensive unfortunately... But I'll definitely come anyway, just for the ambience :)

The madness!! I was recently on a business trip in NBG and walked through the city in the evening and that's when I found the tavern. Absolute dream. At some point I will travel from Berlin to Nuremberg especially for you, but this time in a larger group!

Step right into game of thrones. Vibe is super cool. Food is also great.

Just chased a group of 10 people away - "you think we're here for you" is the attitude for wanting to experience Nuremburg culture- not for tourists

our experience was terrible. Terrible service, girl took a long time to serve us, food never came. When it arrived it wasn't good. I won't be back!

What a wonderful pearl Nuremberg has here with Finyas Tavern!? The service is very personable, humorous and nice ♡ The atmosphere is quaint, rustic and medieval. Food really delicious! Great mead beer! I thought the latte, which you can mix yourself, was great. We would love to come back!

Cozy, rustic, medieval. The garlic bread is a must!

An excellent tavern for eating or drinking. The atmosphere and service set the mood of the tavern. I recommend this tavern to have a good time and eat a different cuisine.

An all around perfect evening. From the poet's drink to the onion soup to the tarte flambée, everything *****

Food tastes good. Beautifully rustic and medieval. Dark beer with mead by candlelight, with a mince pot, what more could you want.

In the Finyas Tavern in Nuremberg you immerse yourself in an atmosphere that makes you believe you are in the Middle Ages. Enjoying traditional Bavarian cuisine in this ambience is a wonderful experience. I highly recommend it.

OMG. If you wanna feel like you've just stepped into The Leaky Cauldron or The Prancing Pony, this is your spot! Beautiful, atmospheric. Makes me want to come in garb. This place is what the beer gardens at your local Ren Fair or SCA event aspire to be when they grow up. The Good News: food and drinks and great and the atmosphere is unbeatable. The Bad News: They don't open until late afternoon. They're ridiculously popular, so I'd recommend a reservation.

If I could, the rating would be zero, the service was the worst in my life, arrogant, impudent, I do not recommend it to anyone unless you like to be treated like intruders.

Strongly recommend having dinner here in a beautiful part of town, in a very unique tavern setting. It hearkens back to medieval tavern culture, with earthenware mugs (tankards?) and hearty dishes. Mead and other unique drinks were a fun change from the other cafes and Wirtshäuser. Service was extremely friendly and efficient. While we were here before dusk, I feel it would be even more fun after dark!

Super great restaurant in medieval style, great people, great service with relaxed and funny sayings, great rustic atmosphere, the food is great, I can only recommend it.

Excelent service, food and environment. The best place we visited in Nuremberg to eat and drink. Beer with honey very good

Great atmosphere and music. The waiters even walked around barefoot. Cool. A very good place to feel the spirit of old Germany.

Hm I can only say one thing Mega!!! Any time . Very nice staff, everyone on the ball :) Food very tasty. The Franconian's highest praise. Bast Scho

Very nice atmosphere and really tasty drinks. The food was a bit expensive for the portion sizes but quite tasty. When it comes to service, well, we had 2 waitresses in the cellar vault, one of whom was very friendly, always with a smile and generally a very, very nice person. The other one looked like she was being forced to work here, shouted at us when we couldn't be understood immediately in the very loud, crowded vault and had a very passive aggressive manner that didn't necessarily help us come here again. A pity.

Spontaneously had a third meal. Absolutely recommended, whether it's a vegetable casserole, cheese dip or minced meat, everything is really tasty. Service is very cool and you can really feel comfortable.

Funny pub in medieval style. Food very tasty - ask for the daily special. Tarte flambée large and well topped. Interesting drink selection. In the middle of one of the most beautiful streets in Nuremberg.

It's a shame I'm only here for a vacation. If I'm in Nuremberg again, this is a must on my visit list!

Medieval ambience and delicious food and drink! It's hard to recommend Finyas because everything actually tastes good! Nevertheless, I would like to recommend two things to those unfamiliar with the area: WeinWein (yes - it's really called that!) and tarte flambée (my favorite is with Camembert and cranberries = Westlander). In the heart of the old town you can escape the “modern times” for a few hours!

Very impressive medieval style restaurant. Age-worthy walls. Stylish furnishings and a great ambience with lots of candlelight. The staff is dressed appropriately. The food was very tasty and the price was absolutely reasonable when you take the location into account. Very nice evening.

Great atmosphere, delicious food! Interesting interior of the place, I recommend visiting it!

Very nice medieval atmosphere. The waitresses were very friendly and even joined in on our fun. The food tastes good. At first glance, the offer looks very little. But it's filling and delicious!

Very classic interior with good atmosphere. Food quality is just above average. Beer is ok. The service is quite friendly.

Super Atmosphäre, sehr nette und aufmerksame Bedienung. Essen und Bier war Durchschnitt. Wer Mittelalter und Met mag, ist hier gut aufgehoben.

A definitely good restaurant, especially if you want to treat yourself to something good in a medieval atmosphere. The staff are friendly and courteous and the food and drinks are very good. I'm always happy to be there.

The atmosphere is extremely great and authentic (medieval) as well as cozy (with lots of candlelight). The waitresses were very friendly and funny! The selection of food is quite small and absolutely overpriced! We found the fact that half a tarte flambée (see photo) costs €12 to be absolutely unreasonable! The cheese fondue only comes with a slice of bread. Both meals were extremely salty! A pity!

Great restaurant in medieval style, the service is great and the food was also delicious. Despite the restaurant being full, the waitresses were super friendly and in a good mood, happy to come again at any time.
