Freya by Nöthel in Duisburg

It was a wonderful evening; the food was fantastic, the service excellent, and the atmosphere perfect. We were all sad the next day that the evening had gone by so quickly and want to book again soon.

We celebrated our wedding on January 16th in the Lindensaal. It was a lot of fun, and the hall looked beautiful. The buffet was absolutely delicious. We thought the day was fantastic, and our guests were thrilled. The service was also good, although the drinks were sometimes a little late. Nevertheless, the service team did their best to make our day wonderful. I would definitely recommend it. We thank all the staff for this amazing day; knowing how stressful it is to organize a wedding, everyone involved did a fantastic job. The Lindensaal has a lovely vintage feel, and we felt very comfortable there. We will cherish the memories of this special day!

We celebrated our wedding here on October 11, 2025, and would choose this venue again in a heartbeat. Everything was perfect for us from the very beginning: the location, the studio, the service, and the fantastic collaboration convinced us so much that we were thrilled to spend our special day here. A huge thank you to Tamara, who had an answer to every question and helped us so much with the preparations. Everything was implemented exactly as we had envisioned. The studio was beautifully decorated and tailored to our wishes. This is exactly what a fantastic wedding venue should be! Of course, a very big thank you to everyone who was there for us on our wedding day. The waiters, in particular, were simply wonderful and always available; our glasses were never empty! We would celebrate with you again in a heartbeat, or even just come for a meal, because the food was perfect for everyone. Our guests are still raving about the delicious food. I would also highly recommend the option of booking the suite so you don't have to go home after your celebration. It was perfect for getting ready and, of course, for simply falling into bed at night. We're absolutely certain that this wedding venue was the best for us and our guests, and we'll recommend it to anyone planning a wedding. Thank you for everything; you do such a fantastic job, and we're so incredibly happy to have spent our day with you!

We celebrated our grand wedding with over 60 guests at Freya on April 12, 2025. The service and communication with the team were fantastic. The staff were always attentive to our wishes, and we always felt they were making a real effort to ensure our comfort. The Lindensaal and the Heustadl were beautifully decorated for us; I couldn't have done it better myself. We were truly delighted. The staff at Freya are all incredibly kind and attentive, whether you're having a big celebration or just going out for a meal. Everyone is always very friendly and helpful. At our wedding, the waiters constantly checked on us to see if we needed anything. This was invaluable, as brides and grooms often forget to eat and drink. The food at Freya is, of course, exceptional and simply delicious. We had a buffet, and many of our wedding guests told us it was the best meal they had ever eaten. 😊 There was something for everyone, and all allergens were clearly marked, which was important to us, and they were, of course, taken into account. Everyone was absolutely thrilled with the food. The stationery (drinks and menu cards, seating plan, welcome sign, etc.) was also beautifully designed. We would highly recommend Freya as a venue for events and as a restaurant! We will, of course, be back to dine there again in the future, as we have been doing for years. Thank you for everything ❤️ Sandra and Simon Reimann

The menu is concise, but there's something for everyone. Even my daughters, as vegetarians, were completely satisfied. We're regulars there, so I can recommend any of the meat dishes. The Viennese sausage is fantastic, and the spare ribs are so tender they practically fall off the bone. Delicious! The service is very attentive and extremely friendly. The restaurant has two sections; it used to have three. The front section is by the bar at the entrance, and the rest is in the main building. We always feel very comfortable here and enjoy going to Freya. The prices are reasonable for the excellent quality! Highly recommended!

I had the pleasure of providing the music for a wedding here and was thrilled by how harmoniously everything came together: service, logistics, atmosphere, and event management. The venue creates an environment that is both romantic and festive – ideal for a long party that lasts late into the night. Highly recommended for discerning couples.

Had a great evening at Freya. Great food, top-notch service.

We celebrated our wedding at the Atelier in August 2025 and couldn't be happier with our choice! We first saw the venue during a tasting and were absolutely thrilled. The wedding meal was perfect, and the Atelier's ambiance immediately won us over. But what we appreciated most about Freya was the excellent advice from Tamara and the entire Freya team. We felt like we had a wedding planner by our side who took care of everything. Through Tamara, we met so many vendors who made our entire day perfect 🫶🏻. Our guests were all absolutely delighted!

We celebrated our wedding here on October 24, 2025, and would choose this venue again in a heartbeat. The food was outstanding, and the ceremony location created a truly beautiful atmosphere – it would probably have been even more magical with fairy lights. A very special thank you goes to our waitress, Roberta. She was incredibly attentive, warm, and always available without being intrusive. Our decoration requests were implemented exactly as we had envisioned – we were truly delighted. We can also highly recommend the holiday apartment for the bridal couple: cozy, clean, and ideal for happily falling into bed at the end of the party. The next morning, there was a minor organizational misunderstanding, as initially no one was on the premises, and we had to wait about an hour in the cold to return the keys and gain access to the restaurant (where some of our belongings were still). Fortunately, the very friendly chef eventually helped us out. These were just minor issues, however, and didn't detract from the overall wonderful day. We would definitely choose this location again for a celebration! 🤍 Photos 📸: Lichtverspielt

A fantastic place that I highly recommend. Lovely atmosphere, a short but fresh menu, and very attentive service. I'm looking forward to my next visit.

Great premises, good atmosphere, good and very friendly service and above all good and delicious food.

Highly recommended - great service - great food - nothing to complain about :-)

Delicious food and friendly staff

A truly fantastic restaurant, a small but excellent menu, highly motivated and attentive service – you can't help but have a wonderful time here. We'll definitely be back.

We celebrated our wedding there this year. I definitely expected something different. After what I consider a disappointing evening, I cannot recommend this venue. Before I elaborate further, I would like to request that you contact us. We discussed several issues with the person in charge that evening. Apparently, none of this was passed on. It's a shame that the owners treat us like we're fake. We paid a lot of money, and it was disproportionate. We received no feedback. Guests even brought up the cold food and various other problems afterward. This was beyond embarrassing for us. We hope to receive some information about this; the invoice was issued within two days. We would appreciate not having to take any further action.

A huge thank you to Sven and Isabel from Freya by Nöthel! Such warmth, understanding, and genuine humanity are rare. We are still in a very difficult situation, but Sven and Isabel are truly doing everything they can to help us. It's clear that their guests' well-being is genuinely important to them. With their warm nature, their dedication, and their willingness to help, they give us a sense of hope and comfort during this time. We are incredibly grateful for that. 💛 Dario and Eileen

We celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary there with about 50 people. Many guests commented on what a fantastic location the studio is! The food (we had the BBQ buffet) was truly delicious, and above all, the service was top-notch! When something was almost empty, it was quickly refilled, empty glasses were promptly collected, and guests were quickly served drinks—everything was just so relaxed and beautiful! Thanks also to Tamara for the great organization and uncomplicated planning in advance. You're doing a fantastic job! (Image: knipsundkeks)

We have visited the Freya restaurant several times and have always been very satisfied with the food and service. It was all the more regrettable that our experience at a celebration unfortunately didn't reflect this usual standard in my opinion. In my opinion, the food overall seemed to be presented with little care – this impression extended from the reception to the buffet and even the desserts. The buffet unfortunately also fell short of the standard I've come to expect from Freya. Unfortunately, the food was far from sufficient for all guests. The service was very friendly and always attentive. In my opinion, it would be desirable to pay more attention to quality and organization at future events in order to maintain the usual standards. My personal conclusion: I enjoy visiting the restaurant, but I currently see significant room for improvement when it comes to events. Unfortunately, it's not possible to write a separate review for the restaurant.

We've been there three times, and three times we had items on the bill that we didn't order. The prices aren't appropriate for the food and the location.

We celebrated our wedding in the Lindensaal at Freya on September 20th this year and were absolutely thrilled. From the initial discussions with Isa and Tamara, as well as Sven, through to the planning and celebration, everything went absolutely smoothly. The collaboration with our service managers and the Freya team was simply perfect. The team decorated everything so beautifully and made our day even more beautiful. The service was simply amazing. The waiters were always prompt with new drinks; I don't need to say anything about their friendliness and accommodatingness; everything was perfect. The food was simply fabulous; from the starters to the grill buffet to the midnight snack, everything was a culinary dream. Huge respect for the kitchen. You just feel at home; everyone treats you with such warmth, something we've never experienced before. Overall, we can highly recommend Freya to anyone, even outside of large celebrations. Simply a gem and a dream for any wedding in the beautiful Ruhr area. Many thanks again to Isa, Sven, Tamara and the entire Freya team.

Our wedding at Freya was simply perfect! 💍✨ From the first viewing to the day after the ceremony, everything was just perfect. Communication with the team was super easy and warm – you can tell that everyone here puts their heart and soul into it. ❤️ The tasting beforehand was really useful – we were able to try everything from the buffet (and absolutely EVERYTHING was delicious 😍). On the big day, the food was simply amazing – our guests are still raving about it! The waiters were super attentive, quick, and really kind! The apartment is also a huge plus: beautiful, spacious, and perfect for getting ready and for an overnight stay afterwards – including breakfast the next morning. 🥐☕️ Our wedding at Freya was simply a dream – we would choose the same option again! 💫

The food was excellent, as always. The recommended wine paired the dishes perfectly.

The location is truly beautiful, and we enjoyed an excellent meal that evening. Even though there were two weddings taking place in the event rooms, the atmosphere was very pleasant.

We felt very comfortable and had a very nice Easter Sunday evening

We were invited to a wedding there. The venue is fine for weddings and other celebrations, but it's a bit remote. For guests who need to get to a hotel after the ceremony, a taxi ride can be expensive.

As a wedding photographer for Duisburg, I was booked at Freya for the first time in September of this year, and I was absolutely thrilled. Of course, that had a lot to do with the couple I photographed 😉 Nevertheless, I absolutely loved it at Freya! Whether it was the service, the food, or, of course, the stunning backdrop with its beachy feel ❤️ I'm looking forward to the next time 🥳

The venue itself is beautiful and made our wedding day unforgettable. We felt very comfortable that day, and the atmosphere was exactly as we had dreamed it would be. However, during the preparations, some things didn't go as we expected and agreed. Even the day before the wedding, things didn't work out: We had arranged to meet the Freya team at the venue at 5 p.m., but no one was there. There was no contact person, no response, and we were completely on our own. Some of the chairs and tables weren't even clean, so we had to clean them ourselves – given the amount of money you pay for a venue like this, you should have definitely expected more support and customer service. Communication with the team was also difficult in other respects, as responses often took a very long time. Unfortunately, not everything went according to plan on the day of the wedding itself. We would have very much appreciated closer and more reliable support – as Sven originally promised us during our initial meeting and at the open day. All in all, our day was wonderful and the location was fantastic, but there is still room for improvement, especially in the organization and service.

I was a guest at a wedding. The venue is very attractively designed and generally offers a pleasant ambiance. Unfortunately, there were a few issues that significantly dampened our visit: Buffet organization: The food wasn't refilled in a timely manner, so some of the warming containers were empty. Guests had to actively point this out and wait for refills. This led to dissatisfaction and sometimes unpleasant situations at the buffet, as guests were vying for the last piece. Typically, refills should be made as the containers gradually become empty. While the quality of the food was very good, the quantity was insufficient overall. Additionally, the arrangement could have been more visually appealing. However, this is a subjective opinion. Drink service: Some glasses were cleared away even though they weren't empty. This meant that guests either had to search for their glasses or reorder. Better coordination during clearing would have been desirable. Sanitary facilities: The restrooms were noticeably dirty at times. Given the large number of guests, regular cleaning throughout the evening would have been necessary. Service staff: The staff were friendly and helpful, but the impression was that there weren't enough staff for the number of guests! Some of the comments were addressed, but we had the impression that the need wasn't always recognized. As a guest, you shouldn't have to bear responsibility for organizational processes at an event—the satisfaction of the bride and groom and the guests should be the top priority. A little more self-reflection and external reflection on the part of the organizers, as well as more consistent and measurable review of individual processes, could have mitigated many of these issues. Overall, it seems as if the organizers approached the respective events differently. designed. The location and the food have great potential, but customer satisfaction, adequate service, and organization need to be urgently improved.

First-class service! Great value for money.

On September 6, 2025, we celebrated our non-denominational wedding at Freya by Nöthel – and what can we say? It was simply a dream from start to finish. We've rarely experienced such a perfectly coordinated team. The planning in advance, the in-house service provider fair, and of course, our big day itself were all perfectly organized. Our guests still rave about the stunning location, the fantastic team, the delicious food and drinks (we highly recommend the BBQ buffet!), and the wonderful service providers. A huge thank you to Tamara, Isa, and Sven, who made our wedding day so special! And of course, to the entire service staff: super friendly, attentive, helpful – simply fantastic. Would we celebrate at Freya again? Definitely! We can wholeheartedly recommend this location and the team to every wedding couple.

We were guests at a wedding. We had a lovely celebration, but the fact that no staff was checking the restrooms the entire time was completely unacceptable. They should empty the wastebaskets, refill the paper, and generally check on cleanliness. It's a shame.

We celebrated our wedding at Freya this year, and it was simply perfect! The organization was professional and welcoming. On the day of the ceremony, everything ran smoothly; the team was attentive and friendly, and our guests were thrilled with the service, the food, and the beautiful ambiance in the studio. The venue created just the right setting for our special day. We would recommend Freya without reservation! 😊

A definite 5 stars! Freya is now one of my top 3 favorite restaurants. The food is delicious and of very high quality. The staff remembers the drinks chosen. Therefore, the service is top-notch. The price/quality ratio is definitely right here.

Very good food, attentive and friendly staff.

The food tastes very good. The staff is very friendly. We waited about 45 minutes for our food after ordering. The place wasn't busy, but it could have been a bit quicker. Otherwise, the atmosphere is nice.

A very pleasant stay, the service was very pleasant, not pushy

Outstanding. I drove past so many times that a good friend invited me here. Wow. Great atmosphere, delicious food, and the staff is fantastic! See you soon!

Great location and super friendly and quick staff!

Very nice ambiance, delicious food cooked to perfection, crisp vegetables, very attentive staff. We had nothing to complain about! Sincerely, O. Noack

We had reserved a table for 7:30 p.m., but it wasn't available at that time. Instead of offering us a drink to compensate for the wait, we were assigned the little table by the entrance. It was wiped down with a wet cloth, and when the waitress asked us what we wanted, I asked for a dry table. Unfortunately, my Wiener Schnitzel was almost too salty. After dessert, we ordered two espressos. Unfortunately, the bill arrived before the espressos. We are just incredibly disappointed because we have had the pleasure of enjoying the first-class cuisine and first-class service at Mod's several times before. After all, Freya advertises itself with Sven Nöthel's name. We had expected something different.

Very good food, beautiful location, and the best ribs of my life. The meat slides off the bone like oiled oil.

We celebrated our wedding at the Atelier in mid-June, and it was simply the perfect location for this special day. The BBQ menu was incredibly delicious. The service was absolutely outstanding. The venue itself was also a perfect design choice, both in the Atelier and outside on the beach for our outdoor ceremony. The entire organization with the Freya team was fantastic from start to finish. We highly recommend Freya to everyone. 😊 And what's more, you can also enjoy very good and delicious food at the regular restaurant. 😊

We recently celebrated our wedding at the Freya by Nöthel venue, and it was fantastic. From the highly personalized consultation, to the constant support via WhatsApp and last-minute changes on the day, to the ceremony itself, everything was a success. All guests were extremely pleased with the venue and the food (BBQ), and everyone had a fantastic evening. We highly recommend the venue and the entire team and would get married here again.

We were invited to an event at this restaurant. The food served was anything but good, but it was still delicious. The atmosphere was wonderful, and the staff were very friendly and made every effort to ensure everything ran smoothly.

It was a wonderful company summer party. This place is very nice.

We celebrated our wedding at Freya's – and it was simply dreamy! The venue is not only beautifully situated, but also exudes a very special atmosphere. From the very first viewing, we felt completely at home. The on-site team was incredibly warm, professional, and attentive – from the initial contact to the big day. Our wishes were taken seriously and implemented with great attention to detail. Whether it was the decor, the schedule, or the custom extras – everything worked out perfectly. Our guests were equally thrilled – both with the venue itself and with the service and food. Many said they've rarely experienced such a beautiful and harmonious wedding. For us, it was the perfect place to say "I do" – we would choose it again anytime! ❤️ Many thanks to the entire Freya team – you made our day unforgettable! Daniel & Gina

A lovely location for our medperian/careforce/sanvartis company party! Various buildings, including the courtyard and beer garden, are perfect for enjoying in nice weather, but we still had a plan B. The catering was also top-notch.

I've been booked as a DJ for weddings at Freya by Nöthel several times. And every time I get excited, knowing I'm going there :) Here you'll find a superbly organized team, excellent food, and three rooms for your celebration. Each one has its own charm, and it's incredibly fun to play music here!

We visited Freya for a small birthday party and were absolutely amazed by the size, the details, the delicious food, and the friendly staff. It's definitely worth it!

Very friendly staff, great service, delicious food. There was absolutely nothing to complain about.

Everything was simply top-notch! Refined starters, main courses, and desserts. Excellent wine recommendations. Very attentive service. Nothing was missing.

Excellent cuisine meets a unique ambiance! We'll definitely be back!

We celebrated our wedding in March 2025 at the Lindensaal + Heustadl and would choose Freya again anytime! The wonderful event team was on hand from the very beginning, offering advice and support with all our questions and concerns. This made the preparations and the day itself completely stress-free and perfectly organized and prepared. The rehearsal dinner offered was incredibly helpful, not only for choosing the food, but also for decorating inspiration and seeing the venues "in action." The food is exceptional and absolutely unlike a standard wedding buffet. The service staff was incredibly attentive and friendly at all times. I can also highly recommend staying overnight in the apartment; it's super spacious, clean, modern, and convenient, allowing you to fall straight into bed after the celebration. Overall, we absolutely recommend it. We think back fondly on our wedding at Freya every day, and our guests also rave about the perfect day, which we have to thank the Freya team for!

We went there for dinner with friends – the ambiance, service, and food were simply top-notch! Thank you very much.

I had the opportunity to DJ at a wedding at Freya by Nöthel, and I have nothing but positive things to say. Working with the team was absolutely professional, friendly, and straightforward. The venue is stylish, modern, and offers a fantastic atmosphere for unforgettable celebrations. You can tell that the work here is done with passion and experience. A clear recommendation – for both brides and grooms and service providers!

I was there with my husband in 2023 – shortly after it changed from Renzis to Freya. Back then, we were thrilled with the service and the food. Now I wanted to invite my parents to a nice dinner in a tasteful setting. When we arrived, we were given strange looks, and they frantically searched for our table, even though I had a reservation (which was confirmed in writing and I even received a reminder in writing!). When a table was finally found for us, we were unkindly handed our menus and ignored for the next half hour. When we finally managed to convince an employee to stay with us for a moment and take our order for a bottled water, it took another 15 minutes until the waitress finally came over with the bottled water and a greeting. If it had simply been very busy and it had been obvious that the staff were very busy, we wouldn't have said anything and would have been understanding. Unfortunately, while we were waiting, several other guests who arrived after us were not only greeted warmly but were also easily escorted to their tables, immediately received their first round of drinks, and were even able to place their food orders before we could even order our water. We then decided to cancel our drink order and leave – unfortunately, there seem to be staffing issues/bottlenecks here that threaten to spoil the entire experience at this restaurant.

We were looking forward to a lovely evening. The menu had given us hope for a great meal. Unfortunately, the staff ignored us and left the restaurant after almost an hour without any drinks. What a shame.

Mod's little sister is fantastic! The restaurant in this Scandinavian destination is very tastefully decorated and is a 100% hit. The changing menu is creative, varied, and offers good value for money. A large wine list with fair prices (bottles from €30) makes you want to try everything. The little sister is highly recommended!

We had a fantastic May wedding at Freya, in the Lindensaal. The team executed everything exactly as we had hoped and anticipated our every wish throughout the day. Not only we, but also our guests were thrilled with the stunning location itself, the outstanding food, and the service. Thank you so much for this dream wedding, dear Freya team :-)

We attended a wedding at this venue yesterday. The venue itself is truly beautiful and offers a lot of potential for celebrations – so first, I'd like to praise the surroundings and atmosphere. Unfortunately, the service was anything but satisfactory. From the very beginning, the staff seemed unmotivated, the atmosphere among the waiters was tense, and some guests were even rudely yelled at. The service mentality seemed completely lacking here. There was only one bartender at the bar the entire evening – although he was friendly and did his job well, he was understandably overwhelmed. The wait times for drinks were therefore extremely long, which led many guests to forgo drinks altogether. The rest of the service staff apparently preferred to hide in a room behind the bar rather than help out. For us and many other guests, the location is unfortunately not a potential celebration location due to the poor service. We will try the MOD Restaurant soon and hope for a better experience there. We very much hope that the personnel arrangements will be reconsidered – after all, in the best case scenario, you only get married once.

An unforgettable evening – 5 stars! Our dinner at Freya by Nöthel was a complete success. From the warm welcome to the last bite, everything was perfect. The dishes were not only a visual highlight, but also tasted at the highest level – creative, finely balanced, and with great attention to detail. The ambience is modern, stylish, and at the same time pleasantly relaxed. The service was attentive, friendly, and competent – ​​you simply feel welcome. A place for special evenings, one you'll gladly return to. Highly recommended!

We were a group of 10 people who met for an asparagus dinner. The food and service were excellent. We felt very comfortable and can highly recommend the restaurant.

My husband and I celebrated our wedding reception at the Atelier at Freya on May 17, 2025, and it couldn't have been more beautiful! We were able to spend what was, for us, the perfect day there and were well looked after and served. The coordination and organization beforehand were always reliable, quick, and uncomplicated. Our wishes and needs were addressed individually, and the staff on the day of the wedding was incredibly attentive, which our guests also noticed very positively. The food was fantastic, and we simply had a perfect day at Freya. Thank you for that!

Delicious buffet and nice staff

We had our communion celebration there, what can I say! Everything was top, from the food to the service 👍

We were invited to a wedding there. The food/buffet was very tasty, unfortunately the burger meat wasn't cooked through, but we blame that on the many, impatient and hungry guests. Service was very nice, attentive and accommodating. The atmosphere of the location and also the sanitary facilities (always very important for me) were clean and beautifully designed. Definitely recommended, keep it up

First of all, I would like to say that the waitress who served us was incredibly committed and very friendly despite the stress. Unfortunately, she was completely overwhelmed because her colleagues apparently resigned at short notice. The quality of the food suffered as a result: it was cold, which also bothered many other guests.

As always, very tasty. Staff friendly and committed.

Highly recommended, delicious food and great service.

Great service, tasty food and drinks in an enjoyable atmosphere.

We had a wonderful celebration at Freya with fantastic food and super friendly service! Any time :-)

Staff, ambience and food great as always. Ferras welcomed us very warmly. A wonderful person. Thank you 💐🫶🏻

Last summer we photographed a beautiful wedding at Freya and were thrilled!

Excellent food, super-friendly service and great ambience, we are completely thrilled and are always happy to come back. What's particularly nice is that the menu isn't too big and changes so you can always find something new to try.

Unfortunately we didn't have a good experience at Freya today. There were four of us there as a small family and unfortunately we were disappointed in the overall package, mainly due to an absolutely wrong reaction on the part of the owner, Mr. Nötel. About the food: We ordered four main courses and weren't particularly impressed when you look at the prices listed here. In this regard, there are some Lolaks in the area that are significantly cheaper, especially the former Renzis. The service was generally nice, but we found the service from certain employees to be too little for what a restaurant would like to be, and from other employees to be too much, almost artificial. We also found it annoying that we were simply called by our nicknames - we should think about that too. Basically fine for regular guests if you like it, but we were at Freya for the first time after Renzis closed, we weren't known as guests and therefore not acceptable for us. However, it was Mr. Nötel himself who shot the bird. We gave away a €100 voucher within the family, but for the attached mod, which also belongs to the Freya. After repeated inquiries, we were told that we could also redeem the voucher at Freya, as we would now be using a shared cash register system. When it came time to pay, the voucher in question suddenly presented a problem. Mr. Nötel immediately came to our table, already prejudiced and upset, and told us that the voucher would not be accepted, but that we would be offered an aperitif. When we wanted to talk about the matter and assured us that we had been given the information on the phone that it was possible and that was the only reason we had come, Mr. Nötel became short-tempered and pointed out that, in conclusion, he had “had a long day” (it was 7:00 p.m.) and when we wanted to say something, he fled from the table without comment and simply left us behind. Afterwards they brought us the bill without any further accomodation and were still unfriendly. From a legal point of view it is also difficult because, after a short research, the Mod and Freya are a joint company and not a separate company for tax purposes - so the voucher should have been accepted anyway. Conclusion: We expected more from the food for the price, but we are extremely disappointed with Mr. Nötel and his unprofessional behavior. We handed the €100 voucher to the manager/head waiter and left it because we were just disappointed. The boss can now be happy about it because he made a profit of €100 without doing anything for it - we will see in the long run whether the business was worth it for Mr. Nötel. We will make our experience known to our circle of friends and if he repeatedly exhibits such behavior and also with other guests, it is only a matter of time before the lights go out at Freya. We will not visit your house again.

We always feel very well looked after. Very friendly service, good food and nice atmosphere. The large games area in the basement means you can also enjoy family meals in a relaxed manner.

Very good cuisine, pleasant atmosphere! The prices are comparatively high, but the quality standards lag behind. Service was also very good, courteous, but being called by you is strange...seems to be the spirit of the times, whether you like it or not. Not so good, there are a lot of mod guests walking through the restaurant who can't find their way...that gets annoying after a while.

We were invited to a birthday party there. The atmosphere is very cozy. The food was very tasty and the service was very friendly and attentive. There is a sufficiently large parking lot in front of the restaurant. A recommended place.

The kitchen party for FREYA's 2nd year was simply great. There was a great celebration with 7 restaurants and great chefs like Roger Achterath. The winemaker and the saxophonist rounded off the beautiful evening. Thanks to the team who looked after the 200 guests well.

Underground service idea. There was no response to my request (by email) to issue me a proper invoice afterwards. Thanks for nothing.

We were there on a Friday evening in the run-up to Christmas. The starter came quickly and the tartare was good. Unfortunately the main course took a while to arrive. The burger was very dry in my opinion. You couldn't taste any of the sauce. It's a shame, because the cranberries would have actually been good for the whole thing.

Brunch today at Freya by Nöthel. Simply a Christmas highlight. Next year again!!!

Wow, was there again for the first time after the change of ownership. Nothing has changed in the beautiful ambience! Not even the excellent food! In fact, service was much better than ever! We'll be back!

A very nice restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere and friendly service. Despite the high price range, the atmosphere was relaxed and relaxed and we felt very comfortable here. The food was excellent and the selection of drinks was large. From the welcome to the farewell, it was a completely successful evening. We will definitely come again to try other dishes. The menu was clear, but large enough to suit every taste. That's how it should be. Clear recommendation!

Very nice atmosphere and wonderful food

I can only agree with the many good reviews. The dishes are very, very tasty and all in all an excellent way to bring home cooking, such as sauerbraten etc., to your plate. The service is attentive and very nice. The atmosphere is nice and cozy. Absolutely recommended.

Went here with friends after visiting the current exhibition in the Gasometer. Very friendly and attentive service. The menu is not too big and the quality of the food on offer is good. If we're in the area again, we'll be happy to come back.

Simply perfect in every area. Great gastronomy, great ambience, very attentive service and perfectly coordinated food.

We were there for dinner with the family on my birthday; It started well with the relaxed parking situation, the friendly welcome and a drink of your choice on the house. A constant fan noise was annoying at the table near the counter; Otherwise the location is cozy and originally furnished. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to expectations; For example, the wild herb salad according to the menu was replaced with plain endive salad without any explanation. We were served by five different service staff, not all of whom were professional, friendly or attentive. We would also have been happy to have the boss Sven Nöthel to get face, which wasn't the case. We last saw him as a child about 30 years ago in his mother's restaurant "Am Kamin" in Mülheim. We followed his career in the press and were now curious about "Freya", which unfortunately did not fully meet our expectations.

We have at Freya on October 5th, 2024 married. It was fantastic everything was just perfect. In Freya you can rely on the professionals leave. Food, drinks, decoration, service, support during planning, etc. Everything was excellent. You could say it was a dream wedding.

What can you say? Perfect is probably best. Last month we celebrated our free wedding followed by a celebration in the beautiful Linden Hall. The location, the service, the food and the entire support beforehand and on the day itself were simply great. We would like to say thank you again. Thanks to the entire team for giving us an unforgettable day. We can unreservedly recommend this location to everyone!

The restaurant is very comfortably furnished. The beer garden is also recommended. I like to eat a schnitzel there, but the desserts are also recommended. The portions are reasonable. The quality of the food is very good. The service could ask for drinks more often.

Dear Freya, We were able to celebrate our wedding with you in the Lindensaal and would do it again at any time. Your team and your location gave us probably the best day of our lives and for so many reasons. - Service: We cannot imagine a nicer, more polite and at the same time more attentive service for such a celebration. Your team was there at all times, always exuded a good mood and at the same time responded to every request. Your employees felt like close confidants at the party to whom we could always turn for help. In most cases, the latter was not necessary at all, as the service team was so attentive that the guests' and our wishes were read from our lips. - Food: We hardly have to say anything about the food - anyone who has ever eaten at Freya knows what a culinary delight awaits them. The incredible thing: This quality and taste is maintained even at a buffet for 80 people. Upon request, the team has also responded to vegetarian and vegan alternatives and can provide a nice selection of veg. dishes. The guests and we ourselves were thrilled once again! We will definitely come back for the à la carte! - Location: In spring (our wedding wasn't too far away) we received the message that the Lindensaal needed to be completely renovated. First a shock - after all, we chose this exact location because of its appearance - then excitement. The new Lindensaal is beautiful. We can't imagine a more beautiful location for a wedding. The wonderful mix of rustic and modern is breathtaking and almost no decoration is needed to celebrate a perfect party here. The free wedding ceremony took place in the Heustadl - there is and is no more romantic place than an old "barn" for us :-) The beautiful farm invited you to a perfect reception afterwards and is located exactly in the way you would imagine The midday sun can make you comfortable. - Support/event preparation: We were prepared for the wedding over 1.5 years via email and one or two meetings. We attended several rehearsal dinners, some of which were even set up like real events. What we really admired: Isa and Sven, the owners, were both always there and never gave us the feeling that they were just service providers and we were just their customers. They were just as interested in us having a great wedding as we were and will be remembered as two very nice people. If we had any questions, we were able to reach Freya event planner Tamara by phone or email. And we asked A LOT of questions, all of which were answered. Big thanks to you again, Tamara. - Party and curfew: At first we were skeptical as to whether a curfew of 3:00 a.m. (with the extension to 4 a.m. at an additional cost) would be enough. But looking back, we can say that with 4 o'clock we found a perfect ending for everyone. The volume didn't have to be adjusted either - we were allowed to accelerate until the end! It was really a great party! - Parking situation/hotels in the area: There is a huge gravel parking lot directly in front of the location, so that every guest will definitely find a parking space. There are enough hotels in the surrounding area (five-minute taxi ride) to accommodate every guest. Here, too, a huge plus point for the Freya: the wedding couple has the opportunity to spend the night in a wonderful apartment on the farm for an additional charge. This luxury saved us a lot of hassle before and after the wedding and we would definitely recommend taking advantage of this offer. We could rave about this day and this location for hours, but basically we just want to give Freya what it deserves: a review that will really make interested wedding couples want to get married here! All the best and see you next time à la carte, Batty and Isa

On May 25, 2024 we celebrated our free wedding and our wedding at Freya by Nöthel with around 70 people. After an open day for newlyweds about a year earlier, it was clear to my husband and I that Freya by Nöthel would be a wonderful wedding location for our wedding. Therefore, shortly after the open day, we arranged an appointment for further discussion with the event manager Tamara. We were able to quickly and easily reserve our desired date for the free wedding ceremony in the Heustadl and the subsequent celebration in the studio. Shortly afterwards we were invited to the rehearsal dinner for all of Freya's future bride and groom. Almost half a year in advance, we decided on the timing of the wedding day together with Tamara, so that the rest of the wedding planning could continue in a relaxed manner. Almost two weeks before our celebration, we went into detailed planning and another meeting with Tamara so that everything was perfect on our big day. Two days beforehand we were allowed to hand over the decorations we had designed ourselves and all the necessary utensils for the wedding day to Freya by Nöthel. There we were also able to decide how the decorations should be set up so that everything on the wedding day corresponded exactly to our ideas. Here too, everything was to our absolute satisfaction. Even before the wedding, our guests were allowed to stay in front of and in the barn. Everything was gorgeous and decorated just as we had imagined. Of course, Freya also took people and guests with disabilities into consideration and so every one of our guests was able to enjoy our wedding ceremony. After the wedding, the champagne reception took place outside of the studio, but the interior of the studio was also already accessible to our guests and beautifully decorated. Thanks to the parasols outside, even a short rain shower and the subsequent sunshine were bearable. During the celebration in the studio, the waiters were very courteous and attentive, so that every guest was well looked after. But the service at the bar was also very quick. We booked a BBQ buffet for dinner. In addition to the meat-based main courses, there were also vegetarian and vegan alternatives, so there was something for every guest. Even the needs of severe allergy sufferers were taken into account. Overall, the food was really impeccable and was praised by many of our guests afterwards. The recipe for the pasta salad was asked several times! It should also be mentioned here that it was no problem to let the leftover food cool and take it with us the following day, so that we were provided with delicious food for the coming days. We were also given a piece of the wedding cake so that we could freeze it and enjoy it again on our first wedding day. After the celebration was over, the dismantling and payment the next day was completely uncomplicated and quick, as everything was set up and cleared away by the Freyas team immediately after the celebration was over. So we can say that we really had one of the most beautiful days of our lives at Freya by Nöthel and would always choose to celebrate our wedding there. We felt really comfortable and always look back fondly on our wedding. The entire team, especially Tamara, was always very friendly, uncomplicated and professional and was always available to help us with all of our questions. Thank you very much for everything! We look forward to visiting you again soon, whether in normal restaurant business or as guests at other weddings. Best regards, Julia & Nico

We celebrated our wedding at Freya by Nöthel on September 21st and were absolutely thrilled, or still are :-) The Freya was the first location we looked at in advance of our wedding preparations. After that we knew immediately that we didn't have to look any further and didn't want to. The “Atelier” spoke to us directly and was absolutely perfect for our planned number of guests of around 60 people. This rustic and modern industrial style appealed to us 100%. Simply an absolutely fantastic location. If you like it even more rustic, want to celebrate with more guests and are more into country house style, you should definitely take a look at the upper location "Lindensaal". Another plus point of Freya that is absolutely not to be despised is that you can book almost everything there from a single source. Freya has hired an employee specifically for wedding couples who could almost pass for a wedding planner. Tamara - an absolute stroke of luck - supported us, the bride and groom, with advice and support throughout the entire preparation period. At this point, thank you very much again! Furthermore, all things such as stationery, decorative elements and much more can be booked through Freya. A big thank you also goes to Mandy, who implemented all of our wishes perfectly. In addition, Freya has a large portfolio of external service providers who work closely with Freya (wedding cake, DJ, floral decorations, etc.) On the day of the wedding, everything went absolutely smoothly thanks to the great preparatory work by Tamara and the entire team. Despite their young age, the waiters assigned to us were absolutely on their toes and every guest was served in a friendly, quick and professional manner. A quick joke every now and then also helped put the guests in a good mood. We opted for a BBQ buffet (the buffets can be put together individually) and were absolutely not disappointed. Almost every guest raved about the food and drinks during and long after the celebration. “We have never eaten so well at a wedding before” The Freya offers newlyweds the opportunity to rent an apartment for their wedding night directly on site. We took advantage of this and didn't regret it. So, with the help of our witnesses, we were able to store all the presents there and just jump and fall happily into bed after the celebration. We would like to thank the entire Freya team for this wonderful wedding celebration. You made sure we had an absolutely unforgettable day that will probably stay with us forever. Thank you! We are already looking forward to eating with you soon!

We celebrated a beautiful wedding in this perfect location. The rooms were very nice, the food was great and the staff/service was top notch. Friendly, attentive and quick. A 100% recommendation for every celebration

With “commitment and with all our heart”, this Freya motto is actually one hundred percent true. We celebrated the wedding of our son and his wife this weekend and experienced an outstanding team in a fantastic atmosphere with excellent food. Keep it up and you will make many more people happy...

We celebrated our wedding in July at the beautiful Freya by Nöthel! It was a dream! The support of the organization and the “everything from a single source” concept was wonderful. Everything was thought of, everything was implemented exactly as we wanted. The wedding ceremony in the beautiful Heustadl exceeded every expectation and the subsequent celebration in the Lindensaal was perfect from start to finish (overnight stay in the apartment on the Hof - a MUST for all bridal couples) outstanding! From the service to the decoration, not to mention the food! Craziness! We would recommend Freya and his team to anyone who asks us, because in our opinion it couldn't be better!

Wonderful location was invited to a wedding there. The food is excellent. The service so attentive and friendly. I can 100% recommend it. I felt very comfortable there 🥰👍
