Fuchsbau Gaststätten GmbH in Mönchengladbach

The food? Simply heavenly! The menu offers a great selection of dishes made with fresh, high quality ingredients. Whether savory or sweet – every taste is catered for here. A culinary delight that is second to none! The staff also deserve high praise: friendly, attentive and always with a smile on their faces. The service was excellent at all times, and nothing was left to be desired - the chicken is world class and highly recommended

Everything was great as always, service was very friendly. Thank you!

As always great. The chicken is absolutely great, even if it's not exactly cheap. But it's also a restaurant and the quality is top! The service is very friendly and quick. Always my pleasure!

We ate very well there and received super friendly service.👍👍👍👍😊

Super friendly staff, juicy chicken, beautiful location in the middle of the forest. Successful restaurant visit!

If you are approached from the side before the entrance with a rude answer, HAVE YOU MADE A RESERVATION? From a man drinking beer without saying hello. Hello or something, you've already been served. Then wait in line for the staff to be able to assign you your table. Totally loud in the place. Smells like an old pub and then 15.20 You pay extra for half a chicken without fries or salad. No thanks, I was served in the booth after 2 minutes. Preferably 0 🌟

The best chicken in all of North Rhine-Westphalia and the Fuchsbau burger is MEGA! ❤️

The Fuchsbau in MG is a fantastic day-trip restaurant that impresses with its great ambiance, delicious food (chicken), and attentive service. The location in the heart of the Hardter Forest offers a rustic atmosphere that's perfect for relaxing evenings with friends and family. My highlight are the lovingly planned events—summer is coming! 🤗

Unfortunately a disappointment First of all, the positive. Super friendly service. Then to dinner. Really sensationally good fries. Rarely have I had such good fries. The spare ribs we ordered were so dry and some of the meat was so hard that you could cut your lip on them. The highly praised chicken was also a disappointment. Apparently fried to death in the deep fryer, this couldn't be compared to a proper grilled chicken. Unfortunately we won't be regular guests.

Great location in the middle of the Hardt Forest! Great food, super nice service, There was nothing to complain about at all! We had a wonderful evening!

Wir sind seit Jahren Gäste im Fuchsbau. Nicht nur wegen dem guten Hähnchen. Auch der Service und die Freundlichkeit. Durch Freunde sind wir zur Rosenmontagsparty gekommen. Erst gut gegessen und dann sehr gut Amüsiert. Weiter so. Bis nächstes Jahr

Class!! Great hosts, great staff. Cozy location. Food very tasty. Were there to celebrate Rose Monday. Great atmosphere! We'll be back.

Best chicken around. Great location, great food, great service

Great chicken at a fair price! The service could be a little more attentive & faster. Edit: We were here today with 8 people. Table was reserved for 5:00 p.m. We entered the winter garden at around 4:57 p.m. and were greeted rather cheekily with the words: "We'll be happy to open the gate ourselves, we don't open until 5:00 p.m." It doesn't work at all! Our waitress (young lady) was friendly and on the ball. Food was ok, but quality declined! Why dogs are not allowed in the restaurant and you have to use the winter garden is beyond me given the fact that a cat moves freely in the restaurant...

Enjoy your meal. Been going here for years. Unfortunately no card payment possible

The best chicken in MG easy. Great atmosphere for friends and family

Food was ok, the forest cat and the lady who explained to me where the cat came from were also really nice, but the person who served us had no idea whether it was the boss or whoever “was probably looking for the hair in the soup himself”! 😉

We were very satisfied. The chicken was well seasoned and crispy, as were the fries. We also ordered coleslaw, which was also very tasty, but the quantity was almost too much. The service was in a good mood and friendly. We'd love to come back.

A classic for the chicken, would prefer it to the burger, of course. Spices and sauces round off the offering. The diversity is there!

On my birthday I was able to try the delicious chicken at the Fuchsbau for the first time. And yes, it was definitely by far the BEST thing I've ever eaten ☺️ Despite spontaneous changes of plans, we were able to spend a lovely evening thanks to the great staff at the Fuchsbau. Not to forget, also the great brownie cake 🎂 a dream! Definitely highly recommended and I look forward to my next visit soon 😁

The food? Simply heavenly! The menu offers a great selection of dishes made with fresh, high quality ingredients. Whether savory or sweet – every taste is catered for here. A culinary delight that is second to none! The staff also deserve high praise: friendly, attentive and always with a smile on their faces. The service was excellent at all times and no wish was left unfulfilled.

The best chicken I've ever eaten. The chicken comes in different seasonings, I had Tandori. Super crispy, delicious fries and a crisp salad. Nice, rustic restaurant. A nice beer garden that we will definitely visit in the summer. Friendly, nice service and... delicious beer.

Best chicken in town Creative Great offers The owners put their heart and soul into it and are always coming up with new, great events

I can't begin to understand the recent negative reviews. We haven't been there for a while and - based on the last reviews - were very skeptical about what to expect... and were convinced of the opposite; I didn't remember the chicken being that good, so I definitely give it a 💯 percent recommendation, nice (rustic) atmosphere, nice service and a great chicken!

The last time I visited the Burrow was about 8-10 years ago. We were two people. Our half chickens were very dry. Where was the crispy skin? It seemed to me that too many chickens were grilled and then quickly tossed into hot oil before serving. We are very disappointed.

I have enjoyed visiting this restaurant for 20 years. But the last few times have been disappointing. Chicken dry, fries limp. Since the generation change, it's just a copy of what it used to be. 7 euros for an Altbier is also steep. After 3 attempts to see if it was a slip-up, I won't be coming back. It's a shame about the beautiful location.

We have been to the Fuchsbau several times now and really enjoy eating the chicken here. Unfortunately, the schnitzel is not recommended here. In general the atmosphere is very pleasant, although the chairs could be a bit more comfortable. Depending on the weather, the parking lot is unfortunately very muddy and partly unlit, which is not so pleasant at dark hours. Overall, the visit is very worthwhile if you want to eat delicious chicken with family or friends in a cozy atmosphere.

We have been regular guests for 15 years. Unfortunately, the food has declined a lot lately: the chicken has repeatedly been dry, the fries are no longer tasty and the prices have also risen significantly. Conclusion: We won't be coming back. Too bad!

Lecker war‘s - wie immer…… Sehr lauschig und gemütlich…… Und Füchschen Alt, was willste mehr…. Wenn ich so gerade daran denke krieg ich wieder Bock darauf……

Have been here several times. The food is always great. This time we were very disappointed. Despite a table reservation, we were shown a high table with a bar stool. After we kindly pointed out that one of us had problems with his back and we would like a different table, we were only given a chair with a backrest. In addition, the parking situation was a disaster. Since there aren't enough of them, we were parked in and the owner of the other car had to be found so we could get out. As good as the food is here, we won't be coming here anymore.

Unique. The best chicken in town. Managed and designed with heart. Real. Magical.

Only with pre-order!! What a shame!! No spontaneity from the employees!!

Update 2: After a visit with friends, I can say that the chicken is back to the usual quality. Update: Unfortunately, the delicious wide French fries are no longer available. The chickens are probably no longer the same either. Plus a not insignificant price increase. Too bad!!! (The Fuchsbau has been one of our favorite destinations for years. Anyone who likes chicken will be well served here. Reservations are strongly recommended. If you arrive spontaneously, you should expect not to get a seat. Always happy.)

We were greeted very unfriendly, the lady at reception wasn't very nice, we wanted to go there for the first time. I won't go there again.

I've been here twice now and absolutely loved it each time! The food is simply outstanding - with authentic and perfectly balanced spices that make every dish a real pleasure. The prices are also very fair: for a main course including a drink you pay around €20 per person. The service also deserves high praise: the waitresses are always friendly, attentive and quick. Overall, an all-round great experience that leaves you wanting more - I'll definitely come back!

Great service, good food, great ambience. Mega. Thank you for the lovely evening 👍🏻

I love this place! As a former workplace as well as a restaurant to relax and eat delicious food! And I find the people very special too! Warm, funny, unique! I always like to come back - even as a veggie! Your dishes with goat cheese - whether burgers or in a salad - MEGA!

I was even given a white cabbage salad as a gift, which was super tasty. We will come back. Stephen

Super tasty chicken I can only recommend it We'd love to come back

Unfortunately you can only get a seat if you reserve Big disadvantage, no EC card payment Simply great food

Wenn man hier einen Tisch reserviert, bekommt man einen rundherum gelungen Abend zu akzeptablen Preisen. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Der Fuchsbau ist ein kleiner Familienbetrieb mit dem Herzen an der richtigen Stelle. Das Essen, ganz egal was man hier ist, schmeckt hervorragend. Da stimmt das Preisleistungsverhältnis absolut. Hier werden zum Beispiel Biohähnchen mit frei wählbaren und kombinierbar Gewürzen angeboten. Diese Gewürze werden extra für den Fuchsbau produziert. So steht es zumindestens in der Speisekarte und so schmecken sie auch. Das Restaurant ist mit viel Liebe dekoriert worden und es ist einfach nur gemütlich. Man möchte gar nicht mehr aufstehen. Die Mitarbeiter von der Theke, über den Kellner bis hin zu der Chefetage sind für jede Menge Spaß zu haben. Ich kann die teilweisen schlechten Rezensionen hier nicht nachvollziehen. Vielleicht sollten sich diverse Menschen mal wieder folgenden Satz in Erinnerung rufen: "so wie man in den Wald hineinruft so kommt es auch wieder raus" Ich kann dieses tolle Restaurant mit besten Gewissen weiterempfehlen. Freue mich schon auf den nächsten Besuch. Jetzt kriege ich wieder Hunger. Tip: Unbedingt einige Tage vorher anrufen und einen Tisch reservieren. Dieses Lokal ist sehr oft ausgebucht. Liebe Grüße an das Fuchsbau Team Andi

Supposedly famous for its chicken, but there are better ones

awesome food great staff great atmosphere I can recommend it to anyone who is in Mönchengladbach

Pre-booked table for 2. Arrived today at 12.30pm, very nice welcome. Ordered half chicken with baked potato. Top food. Super seasoned and meat juicy. You can argue about the price, there is a price list for that beforehand

Super Ambiente, super Service, super Essen.... Musik angenehm und nicht zu laut. Speisekarte für jeden was dabei. Werde immer wieder gerne kommen. Gut kombinierbar mit einem Spaziergang

A really cozy restaurant with super delicious food! The selection is varied, there is also something for vegetarians. The service is friendly and quick, and the music creates a relaxed atmosphere. Perfect for a relaxed evening with friends and family. Absolutely recommended!”

Es war uns wie immer ein Vergnügen:) Lecker wie eh und je, lustig, freundlich. Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Abend und freuen uns schon wieder aufs nächste Mal.

Tolles Ambiente und super freundliches Personal! Hier kommt der Chef des Hauses auch mal zum Tisch. Übersichtliche Karte aber dafür top, SpareRips und 1/2 Hänchen waren super lecker. Freue mich schon aufs nächste Mal.

Ein richtig gemütliches Restaurant mit super leckerem Essen! Die Auswahl ist vielfältig, auch für Vegetarier ist was dabei. Der Service ist freundlich und schnell, und die Musik sorgt für eine entspannte Stimmung. Perfekt für einen entspannten Abend mit Freunden und Familie. Absolut empfehlenswert

An “original” where we always like to meet for a nice evening. The service and food are of top quality and are always an experience.

5/5 I love this shop, the team, the food, the ambience and especially the way POINT!

Visiting the Fuchsbau since 1974! Being a guest for 50 years speaks for itself! Frank and his team offer delicious cuisine, friendly service and a cool ambience! We'll be back! Silke & Markus

Four of us had dinner there a few weeks ago. We had reserved a table in advance. At the entrance we were welcomed by Chef Wortkarg. He then looked at the reservation book for some time, then called an employee with whom he then spoke in a harsh tone. I can't say what the problem ultimately was. Rarely have I seen such an arrogant and unfriendly person. All four of us would have preferred to turn back straight away, but the chicken was supposed to be so delicious. We first had to point out that our table was dirty and sticky. The food was quite ok. The portions are very large. But the chicken was nothing special. The only bright spot was the young gentleman who served us and was really very friendly. It's nice to sit outside, but that doesn't make the owner's behavior any better.

Simply the best chicken, deliciously seasoned. And really nice and friendly service. It's also really nicely decorated, you can see that a lot of work and passion goes into the restaurant. We're already looking forward to mulled wine in winter. 😍

Went there for the first time today based on a recommendation. Waitress seemed very unsure and nervous. I ordered a chicken with fries and additional coleslaw. I would have liked it to be pointed out that a small portion of coleslaw is included with every chicken. We waited about 30 minutes for 2 chickens with very few visitors. Chicken was perfectly fine, but not special. The spices were simply on top in far too large quantities. The fries were very soggy due to the not homemade coleslaw. The waiters didn't really pay any attention to you, only to collect money. Tried once but won't come back. There was only one thing missing here to convince us.

Always happy for years! Fresh chicken, delicious fries and very good coleslaw in a living room atmosphere and nice staff :)

We went there for dinner based on a recommendation. Apparently they should Chicken there can be excellent. It was a big disappointment. Coleslaw is not made in-house. It's the kind you can buy in the supermarket. The chickens are thrown into the deep fryer to get the crispiness. This means they are very dry on the inside. And the whole thing is then powdered with a selected spice. Anyone who has ever eaten a freshly grilled chicken will probably find, like us, the chickens from the Fuchsbau just a shame for the money.

I have to agree with the negative reviews. I had reserved for my father's birthday (81) and stated so. A service person told me on the phone that we would be seated in the winter garden. OK. When we arrived we were told to sit on bar stools without backrests. I said that wasn't possible because my parents couldn't do it anymore. Given the empty tables around, I thought we'd get another table. Instead, I was reported by the service person, she talked to me about the winter garden, she used my first name and scolded me - and maybe my "keep calm, girl" wasn't the best reaction, but what came next still leaves me speechless . The boss came over and I thought "okay, he'll take care of it now"...but he just asked me "What did you say?", pointed at the door and shouted: GET OUT! Then do this several times. I'm stunned. I wanted to go out to eat with my daughter and parents at a restaurant that my mother has been going to since 1963! And we were thrown out. My mother went there for 61 years and the look from my parents when we had to leave without eating what we were looking forward to... ruined our birthday. At this point, a big thank you to the team at BOHO BEACH in Effeld, who seated us so easily on Saturday evening without a reservation and served wonderfully delicious food.

You don't need to eat there for chicken that is warmed up in the deep fryer and then sprinkled with various spice mixtures. Every good snack bar does this better.

Long-established, rustic restaurant in the middle of the Hardt Forest. They have the best chicken around and the service is excellent! This is also the reason why there are rarely free tables. So, after a successful telephone reservation, you can look forward to a wonderful evening! Hubert M. Schuster

Excellent food and warm service: The Fuchsbau offers a great combination of cozy atmosphere, good food and great service. Whether for a cozy evening or a larger company party. We always look forward to the next visit and can fully recommend the Fuchsbau!

We were bursting with quality, Competent service, price performance is perfect! Incredibly delicious! Cozy atmosphere. We're always happy to come back! Many thanks to the whole crew!! Great fries! 👍 If you love fries, head to the Fuchsbau!

Thanks to the entire Fuchsbau team, it was again super nice and super delicious last night ⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐ the mixed salad with the raspberry dressing 😍 so deliciously divine 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼, the winter garden very inviting and cozy at the fireplace table 👍🏼we look forward to the next time 🥰

Beautifully located in the forest. The burgers were great. Unfortunately this time, the salad was watery and the chicken was a bit dry. The chocolate muffin is more of a praline, powerful but delicious.

Great food, very nice restaurant in the middle of the forest, it's best to reserve a few days in advance.

A very cozy restaurant, service was nice and friendly, even got a seat without a reservation. It's not a fast-food restaurant, but the taste and quality speak for themselves, so I'm happy to wait a while for my food. Price performance is definitely ok. We'd love to come back.

Chicken and fries are world class there

Very unfriendly reception, I don't know whether it was the owner personally. No eye contact, you were simply rejected in a rude manner and left behind.

Great taste! Truly the best chicken! Baked potatoes are also a clear recommendation! Very tasty cuisine 👍 Staff very friendly, but they had forgotten our second drink order. Price-performance ratio a little higher. Located in the forest with plenty of parking spaces. Reservations very useful.

The Fuchsbau restaurant in Mönchengladbach offers an excellent culinary experience with friendly service. All dishes are carefully thought out and are produced in-house, which underlines the high quality. The pulled curry chicken burger and the delicious goat cheese burger are particularly recommended. The menu also offers some options that appeal to vegetarians. The outdoor dining is another highlight, ideal for nice days. The cozy atmosphere in the beer garden invites you to linger. Overall, the Fuchsbau is a recommended place for anyone who appreciates good food and excellent service.

We expected a lot and were unfortunately disappointed. Beautifully located and stylishly furnished location and beer garden. As you can read on the operator's website, people who are looking for a fly in the ointment are not allowed to come. I'll probably be one of them soon. The price was already very high. We had 2x 1/2 chicken from the oven with the classic spice mixture sprinkled on top. The chicken had zero flavor inside and was partly dry (especially the breast). Already very crispy on the outside (cooked to death). The rest is ok but not anymore. The coleslaw tasted and looked like the one you know from a bucket. The fries are normal frozen fries (i.e. not fresh fries) with fries seasoning. All in all, nothing special and overpriced. Our conclusion: we won't be coming back.

Wir hatten viel erwartet und wurden leider enttäuscht. Schön gelegene und stylisch eingerichtete Location und Biergarten. Wie auf der Seite des Betreibers zu lesen dürfen Leute die das Haar in der Suppe suchen nicht kommen. Zu diesen gehöre ich dann wohl demnächst auch. Wir hatten ein 1/2 Hähnchen mit Kraut und eines mit frischen Pommes und zwei Getränke für insgesamt 41€. Das finde ich schon sehr gehoben. Dafür bekamen wir 2x 1/2 Hähnchen aus dem Backofen mit der Klassik Gewürzmischung oben aufgestreut. Das Hähnchen hatte innen null Geschmack und war teilweise trocken (vor allem die Brust). Außen an der Unterseite schon sehr kross (tot gegart). Der Rest ok aber auch nicht mehr. Der Krautsalat schmeckt und sah aus wie der aus dem Eimer den man so kennt. Die Pommes halt normale TK-Pommes (also keine frischen Pommes) mit Pommes-Gewürz. Alles in allem nichts Besonderes und überteuert. Unser Fazit wir kommen nicht wieder.

Delicious chicken, nice service, great atmosphere

We have always enjoyed broiler in East Germany. Therefore, we came here with positive expectations. Unfortunately, we were deeply disappointed that half of the chicken was dry as if it had been kept warm for days. A real disgrace, especially considering the rather high price of almost €14. Conclusion: never again, not recommended, a real rip-off when you see the price for performance / quality😠😠

Great atmosphere and good chicken

Very down-to-earth and familiar inn where the individual members are very hospitable and friendly. The ambience outside is very pleasant and structured for the guests. The exterior design and lighting from dusk onwards are particularly successful.

So, Food was good! Service is okay so far. The boss is totally arrogant and doesn't speak well to children. They wanted to get rid of us quickly and fob us off. We were there with 3 couples and 4 children. That doesn't work at all We wouldn't come back and wouldn't recommend it for families.

Food was great and plentiful, nice, friendly and attentive service! And a great ambience too. What more could you want!? 👍🏻

Hello there Been to the Fuchsbau with friends and my little family for a long time today. The ambience was really very nice. The food was very good and really tasty. The service was great and the boss was very nice and always present, as was the rest of the service. What really impressed me was when my son (he's almost four) cut his lip while playing, we were immediately given ice cubes to cool, and when we stood at the bike afterwards they gave us some consolation ice cream for the little one brought out. Thank you for this, dear Fuchsbau team Lena, Frank and David

Kurzfristig gebucht und dofort einen Platz bekommen. Tischwunsch bei Ankunft wurde berücksichtigt. Sehr freundliche Bedienung. Essen war gut, Getränke top. Wir hatten einen super tollen Abend und kommen gerne wieder!!!

Wir haben es auch erlebt, es ist dort schlechter geworden. Das Schnitzel Eugen hatte nicht die Qualität wie früher. Die Hähnchen waren auch nicht mehr wie früher. Um es abzukürzen: wir gehen nicht mehr hin.

By far the tastiest chicken. Anyone looking for quality will find it here.

It was another great, fun evening. As always, the welcome was very, very warm. The food, half a chicken and spare ribs were, as always, absolutely delicious. Thanks to the entire Fuchsbau team for the lovely evening with you. We are always happy to come to you.

Rustic forest restaurant, specialty grilled chicken, great ambience and very friendly staff.

Had a delicious shandy in a very nice atmosphere

Unfortunately unfriendly reception. Didn't get a table even though we reserved it. Food ok but not impressive. You don't have to go there again.

Highly recommended! The staff is super friendly and funny, it's fun to eat there. The food was fantastic!!! Simply delicious! And the ambience is beautiful! They played with lights and decorations. Lots of details. The selection of dishes is small but nice, I don't think it always has to be a huge selection because what they have there is great! You get homemade chips before your meal, which were also really tasty! And we were lucky, we and other guests got a small dessert for free, which was also really good! In the pictures I tried to “capture” a bit of the great evening.

Best chicken. Nice beer garden. Completely satisfied.

Very good food and very well located in the middle of the forest

Was very disappointed. Had reserved a table, only got a table with stools for children and somewhat unstable guests. Of course that didn't work. Unfortunately, the birthday dinner had to be rescheduled at very short notice. It's a shame that the service has deteriorated. We were always happy to come.

We were there with the family at the weekend and even though we had booked a table, they wanted to seat us on bar stools with our 85-year-old mother. After discussion we were given a table with wooden benches, without cushions or backrest. The chicken was dry and extremely small. We were really disappointed, because 17 euros isn't much for a piece of chicken and a side salad. The atmosphere was very hectic, the music was much too loud. The service was good, the young lady tried very hard. Unfortunately we cannot recommend it.

Super Service. Celebrated a bachelor party. Went well. Price performance is right.

Best Chicken, have known the owner for 20 years, always nice

Super tasty chicken. Perfectly grilled.

I've been to the Fuchsbau a few times, a while ago I happened to be in Hardt and spontaneously wanted to take a 1/2 chicken with me. At the entrance I was asked by a young lady if she could help me. I replied that I would like to take 1/2 chicken with me. Then the owner came, looked at me for a while without saying a word and said that I couldn't have one. At first I thought he was joking... After a while he boredly said that there were reservations and he didn't have 1/2 chicken left. I was perplexed and still thought it was a joke... But it wasn't... That's called hospitality :-(

It was nice to sit in the beer garden and eat something delicious. The atmosphere was great. The food and drinks were to our liking.

Personal-Bedienung (besonders Männlich) sehr unfreundlich. Eine Platzreservierung wurde nicht berücksichtigt. Auch nachdem man dies erwähnte, wurde man mit dem Hinweis bedacht " wenn es ihnen nicht passt können sie ja gehen" Das schlechteste Essen was wir je hatten, Rippchen zäh und trocken. Das Essen war zu vergleichen mit einer Imbissbude, dafür Preise wie in einem 4 Sterne Restaurant.

We actually can't rate the food because we didn't even get that far. Unfortunately we were a little late and this could well be a reason to give the two places to someone else after a few minutes. However, we found the arrogant and didactic manner very outrageous. It's a shame, we were really looking forward to our visit to the Fuchsbau.

It is very rare to meet such an arrogant and unpleasant boss. Immediately at the entrance, we just asked for another table, we received a lecture with the words now I'm talking about his seating arrangement and we had to comply with it. This person is absolutely out of place. The food and the service staff, on the other hand, were very good

The best chicken, the best coleslaw and I love the hunter sauce. Nice and friendly service except for the boss who is just friendly. I've been a customer for 42 years and it's never been better than now, so let's go, it's a pleasure and an experience
