Galerie Burghof in Düsseldorf

The place has something magically special... - Looks nice - Atmosphere mega - Service friendly - Price acceptable - clean and tidy - Food is delicious - Drinks are refreshing Clear recommendation.

I was in the Burghof for the first time over 30 years ago and we love coming back every year, especially in the summer. The atmosphere is rustic outside and inside. Candles make it really cozy in the evening. The dolls and decorations are adapted to the respective season. The beer garden invites you to linger. Depending on where you sit, you have a great view of the Rhine wherever there is going on. You sit at super long tables. When it's really crowded you sometimes have a problem getting on or off the bench. The guests are completely mixed in terms of age. The beer garden is partly in the shade so that you don't get sizzled away. In summer it is sometimes busy during the week, but on the weekend all hell breaks loose. The menu is very manageable. The tarte flambée is very tasty, as is the brewery goulash with spaetzle. The pancakes too. Years ago you got 2 slices of meat loaf with a fried egg, fried potatoes, coleslaw and caraway bread. The fried potatoes have been gone for a long time and only one of the 2 slices of meat loaf is left. Luckily, a small jar of coleslaw and the caraway bread made it. But these days it's not cheap anywhere anymore. We always like to come because we first go for a walk with the dog along the Rhine and then, when the temperatures are good, we go to the beer garden. Various cakes and fresh waffles are available in the afternoon. If you're lucky, you can park in the parking lot in front of the castle courtyard. A visit is definitely worth it. The beer garden here is really cozy, very quiet and there is shade under the old chestnut trees even when the sun is really shining. And in the less comfortable times of the year you go indoors where it is nice and cozy and warm. The service is always very friendly. We'll definitely be back.

Love this place, great traditional German food. Great beer, quirkiness and views of the Rhein

The best gastronomy I have ever experienced. Ambiance 1a. Staff nice and friendly. Only Elvis' Cadillac needs a refresh. We definitely are. Always there when we are in Kaiserswerht. Thumbs up

There is plenty of parking available and will be charged for consumption

Traditional german food, amazing atmosphere and decorations, especially in the bathroom

I went here for dinner with some work colleagues. The location is nice (the one star is for it), the outdoor area is right on the Rhine - but that's about it. Unfortunately there are two points to complain about: - There is no WiFi for guests or vegan dishes, although their website states that both are available. You can't set a goal for yourself that you ultimately don't achieve! - Prices for drinks and food are quite high, but the quality is not particularly outstanding. Card payments are only possible from €20.00, which is also not up to date. Pretty disappointing, I wouldn't come again for now - a shame...

We were there for dinner during the week and we got a table despite not having a reservation. The location is very nice and the staff is extremely friendly and personable. First there was a chilli sin carne and a baguette with aiolo with bread. The chilli and aioli were very tasty, but unfortunately the baguette wasn't. The slices were very dry and tasted as if they had been sitting in the bread basket for a few hours. The tarte flambée tasted very bland and dry, although the seasonal chanterelles were good again. The spaetzle with the goulash was also rather dry and heavily fried, the meat was tasty and the dark sauce was quite intense in taste. Roast beef with baked potatoes was okay and the remoulade with it was very tasty. During our stay we were not actively asked for new drinks and a reorder was forgotten. It's actually a shame that the potential of the location is wasted through simple things like dry bread. It's certainly nice here for a trip with a quick stop for a few drinks, but unfortunately I can't really recommend dinner.

Nice restaurant with a nice outdoor terrace, which is particularly worth a visit in summer. The historic building is directly on the Rhine and therefore exceptional. The food is OK and the service is nice

Such a great location and such delicious currywurst ❤️

A super quaint restaurant that is allowed to go out at Burgen Ritter

Absolute recommendation, the view is awesome, the mood/ambience is a big plus, it's right next to the old Imperial Palace

The pancake with apples is not recommended. You can tell that they were made in very old fat. The dough is way too thick and almost raw in the middle. In my opinion it no longer has the quality it once had years ago. It may be that everything else there tastes good... but today was a failure for me. Hence the long queue at the waffle stand 😉😀

We were in the beer garden in wonderful weather. Very cozy, great view of the Rhine. Good service.

Nice beer garden. We had white sausage with laugrn pretzel! The pretzel was probably 3 days old and so hard and dry that you could only wash it down with beer! Conclusion: nice atmosphere with poor cuisine!!

Slow service/not enough staff, but a nice view. The smallest white sausages and the oldest pretzels in the world are served here.

Very nice place to drink a beer 🍺🍺

Visited the castle courtyard again for a long time. Unfortunately the visit was a disappointment. The ambience is very nice with a view of the Rhine.. Unfortunately the food was a big disappointment for the price. We had 2 Erdinger Weizen for €12.20 1 aioli with bread €5.20 1 brewery goulash €16.90 1 tuna salad €14.20 The bread with the aioli was dry and tasted of nothing The brewery goulash was very bad and not seasoned The salad was no longer completely fresh, tuna from a can and the salad tasted like the Aldi salad from the bag. It's a shame with such an atmosphere...

View of the Rhine in summer, charming and cozy at a customer meeting. We would be happy to support you with your property. www.immokai.de

The best place i found in 2024 summer

The Galerie Burghof is recommended, just because of its location directly on the Rhine and in the beautiful Kaiserswerth. The beer garden with the old chestnuts invites you to linger. The staff is very friendly, the small menu is completely sufficient. We had a lovely time and will certainly come back.

Rustic, cozy beer garden with a beautiful view of the Rhine and the Imperial Palace. Food totally overpriced both in terms of taste and portion sizes.

Just really awesome to sit outside and have the view to the Rhein. A place to be on summer.

Always nice, the beer garden under the chestnut trees with the sunset over the Rhine

Very nice beer garden, seating under ancient chestnut trees. You sit rustically on wooden benches and can enjoy the sunset in the evening. Everything you need for a nice beer garden evening is on the menu. Tarte flambée is particularly recommended. A detour to the Kaiserpfalz and the beautiful district of Kaiserwerth nearby is recommended.

The most beautiful beer garden in our area. Right on the Rhine, old trees, relaxed atmosphere. Food simple but good.

Great location. Lots of trees for shade or light rain. Rustic atmosphere

Although officially open until 11pm, it was not possible to get a drink after 10:30pm. We were suddenly informed that it had already been the last round and that the bar was closing at 10:15 p.m. However, this change was not communicated to us, so we ended up sitting in the bright cleaning light. Unfortunately, the service from this site is not recommended.

This rating is really very difficult for me because we are talking about a really extraordinarily beautiful location in a very best location. The atmosphere was extremely appealing but why do you make so little of it. The service was clearly overwhelmed by the rush and the selection on the menu was simply too small. Yes, I know the occupancy of the store speaks for the concept, but a little more remains desirable for “me”.

Food service was non-existent and the quality of the food was unfortunately extremely poor. Especially the portion size. 3 salad leaves with chicken for 16€ and a goulash with 3 pieces of meat for just under 17€. It's a shame because the store itself is very nice. Since you paid for the food in advance, you couldn't even arrange not to pay for it.

Great beer garden right on the Rhine!

Boar eat real Baba! Especially from chef Niklas 🤤

Visited the castle courtyard again for a long time. As usual, the beer garden is equipped with extra-long tables and benches. The view of the Rhine is beautiful if you sit correctly. Drinks are delivered. You have to get the food yourself when a corresponding number is called. The tarte flambée is thin and crispy, more cheese than sour cream and is made into a vegetarian tarte flambée using untreated halved cocktail tomatoes and also untreated rocket. It's not just better. That doesn't work at all. Prices are too high in view of this. Overall, no recommendation. The beer garden thrives solely on its location.

In contrast to the city of Bonn, where there are such beer gardens every few hundred meters on both sides of the Rhine, the "Burghof" in the state capital next to the old Rhine ferry is a big positive exception along the Rhine. When in Kaiserswerth, the Burghof with its great view of the Rhine and the dining options is always a recommendation.

The service is friendly so far, but if it says on the internet that the store closes at 11 p.m., I expect that you can at least order a drink until 10:45 p.m. Unfortunately, it is not communicated beyond that that this is the last beer the last round is about. At least that should be communicated so that you can plan accordingly. Instead, you don't get a drink (or eat anyway) from 10:15 p.m. and are thrown out at 10:30 p.m. due to unpleasant floodlights. Why should I sit here for 45 minutes? Because the ambience with the floodlights is so cozy?

Great place for Flammekuche and views of the Rhine. Typical finger food. You order inside (they speak English!) and wait for your number

Very pleasant atmosphere, with beautiful views of the Rhine.

This beautiful beer garden is in an excellent location on the Rhine and looks unique at sunset. The castle courtyard used to be my first stop when the weather was nice. Unfortunately, the quality of service has deteriorated so much that it's hardly worth going there without being disappointed. I was last there on July 19, 2024 with a total of eight colleagues who didn't know the beer garden yet. We ordered our food at the counter in the interior of the castle courtyard at the same time. Although the beer garden was only about 1/4 full of guests (surprising on a Friday afternoon in high summer temperatures), the meal (mini white sausages and a few tarte flambées) lasted almost three quarters of an hour or more. You could pick up the food at the kitchen counter next to the toilets with a number given out. The tarte flambée I ordered wasn't even prepared. Not even when the digital display for the number failed, my colleagues had already finished eating and especially not after the second reminder from me. I then forewent any further waiting time and therefore also the tarte flambée and had the amount refunded. Explanation from the kitchen: They would not be able to meet the many guest requests. Incidentally, there was no apology. What happens when the beer garden is full? It's a shame, a shame... another beautiful location is going to waste due to poor service and a lack of customer focus.

Very nice and relaxing ambiance, with view on the Rhein. Perfect for a Biergarten afternoon or summer evening. Was a bit disappointed that my goulash only had four small pieces of meat, small portion of Spätzle, but with a nice salad. For nearly €17 I would have expected something a bit more substantial.

One of the most beautiful beer gardens in Düsseldorf, if not in Germany. Directly on the Rhine in Kaiserswerth. Truly a unique location. Especially at sunset. The service is impeccable. The design takes some getting used to, but the absolute plus is that now, in 2024, card payments are actually possible without a minimum amount!!! This is e.g. B. practically impossible in the casemates in Düsseldorf's old town. Congratulations on this decision.

Excellent. Great beer garden. Food so delicious. Had Alsatian tarte flambée. Always my pleasure

What a nice, beautiful place on the water in Dusseldorf... very relaxed under the big trees (lovely shade) at large picnic tables. Friendly service and delicious flammkuchen..

Idyllic, stylish location, right on the Rhine with great, old trees in the beer garden. Everything furnished and decorated with attention to detail. Tasty hops/malt drinks, delicious tarte flambée. Very friendly staff.

Good food 10-30€ it tastes very good, popular with young and old.

Nice place on the Rhine. It's good to go for a walk. I had a beer and a waffle there. Was very busy on Sunday. Ordering was complicated, you could only get coffee and cake inside and get it yourself. Cold drinks would be needed. You also had to get your own waffles.

Great place in Düsseldorf Kaiserswerth to meet up in the beer garden after work, for example

great beer garden. Service top.

Great view of the Rhine, delicious cool 🍺

They have a beautiful beer garden that is right on the Rhine, so it's really nice and worth a visit

Magnificent restaurant, the slope of the rhine where you can taste typical German dishes and very good beer 🍺

We were there on June 26th. in the castle courtyard. Unfortunately we had no luck that day. It wasn't self-service, we had to wait for the overwhelmed waiter. Various service staff stood behind the counter and smiled at the audience and a desperate waiter tried to determine what drink he wanted, it was pitiful to watch. It was just too crowded for a waiter. We were able to get a beer after 1 hour, but not another. The neighbors had to wait longer for their drinks. Many people left because there were no drinks on almost all tables. Only the owner/managing director knows what went wrong in the allocation of service staff. We then went somewhere else and it was great.

The food was very good, without any comments

Nice, rustic restaurant with a view of the Rhine. The place has been a meeting place for decades to sit in the beer garden and have a bite to eat.

Location with a lot of potential, but little is made of it. Tables and benches are left natural, but could be reworked (moss, etc.) There are no seat cushions, even upon request. Food is ok. Nothing special. Of course the view of the Rhine is great.

Last Sunday I was in Kaiserswerth with a group of eleven people and we spontaneously stopped by the castle courtyard. The employees were very polite and courteous. It was no problem for the staff to put together a few tables for us. The food was very tasty and the atmosphere was very cozy. There is outdoor and indoor dining, a service area and a self-service area. Access to the beer garden is barrier-free. The prices are reasonable. Highly recommended.

We were there during the week. The ambience and the view are magnificent. The prices, on the other hand, are less. The service was quick, but the busier it got, the more hectic it became. The food was nothing special and the plate should have been put in the dishwasher again.

The scenery here is amazing. The food is nice. It is a very nice place to have food with an amazing view. It is also self service, so u need to order at the counter and go pick up your food yourself. But it’s worth it.

Very original and friendly, especially when the weather is nice and you can sit outside on the banks of the romantic Rhine 😉

They took 50+ min on two Flammkuchen and when we went to ask they had lost our order. No sorry or anything. My german friend ordered in German, so it was definitely not lost in translation.

Been back in the castle courtyard after many years. The elevated view of the Rhine is unbeatable. You sit under huge, shady trees and enjoy the excellent Altbier.

For me, the old “Rolls-Royce” with a hen in it is the symbol of the complex. Every time I have to look inside like a child. The bizarre toilet, which can be described as an art object, always amazes me when I look up ;) The terrace is beautiful and the view of the Rhine adds extra kick and excitement. I can happily recommend it.

Nice location for a bike trip in good weather. The food is good and the prices are fair, the pretzels are dry but the tarte flambée is delicious.

One of my favorite places. I've been coming here for more than 30 years. Food is great. The staff very nice. The view of the Rhine is perfect. Cozy and romantic, absolutely great. !

Best sunset flamkuchen and beer

Our occasion was a funeral service. The castle courtyard made these hours very pleasant and personal for us, with decorations, very tasty tarte flambée and cheesecake and particularly nice service. Added to this is the view of the Rhine, which is soothing and special in every situation. Thank you for these beautiful hours.

Always beautiful and delicious for 40 years🥰

Galerie Burghof in Düsseldorf is a gem of a restaurant offering traditional German fare. During my business trip, I found the cozy, inviting atmosphere perfect for unwinding. The menu is packed with hearty, authentic dishes, excellently prepared and rich in flavor. Service is warm and welcoming, with staff that genuinely care about making your experience memorable. A standout choice for anyone looking to savor the local cuisine in a setting that feels like a step back in time. Highly recommended for both locals and travelers alike!

Beautiful beer garden with a view of the Rhine and history, a cozy, quiet atmosphere, great food quality - received a marriage proposal in December 2024, said yes, endlessly happy - thank you very much, Burghof team

The most beautiful beer garden in Düsseldorf on the Rhine.

Relaxed sitting in summer with a cool drink. Mixed and pleasant audience. Nice proximity to the Rhine. Light breeze. Food corresponds to an upscale snack level. Simple dishes prepared perfectly, also good for bike tourers. Walks through the old town and along the Rhine to the ferry are fun here, the "Burghof" is always part of it, attracting like a magnet. Down to earth. Burghof collective.

Bistro small but individual, nice service, good food, gladly again. Seating a bit hard 😉

Very nice place where you can relax.

It's a shame 😭 It would be a great outdoor restaurant right on the Rhine if there were more staff and it was better organized

Waiters were quick and very friendly. Beer glasses were full. Price per glass 3.10. Unfortunately it's also normal. We only ate bread snacks here for the reception. They were served very nicely on a board. Therefore no rating of the food. However, the menu was very appealing. Plenty of rustic seating outside directly on the Rhine.

Always good, a must in Kaiserswerth

😀Great ambience right next to the Imperial Palace on the Rhine

A bit dark and the drinks are very expensive

Great view of the Rhine. Drinks quality and price really good. Service not attentive, would have liked to have ordered a second drink. You were simply ignored, This also happened at neighboring tables. After a long wait, I got up to pay and went to the counter.

Zuerst das gute, das Essen war sehr gut und das Ambiente war auch sehr schön. Schönes Ambiente im Restaurant selber aber auch auf den Toiletten. Jetzt leider das schlechte, wir müssten den Service mehrmalig darauf hinweisen, wie man den Job richtig macht. Als wir ankamen mussten wir über 20 Minuten warten, bis wir was bestellen konnten, wir mussten auf uns aufmerksam machen so dass jemand zu uns an den Tisch kam. Ebenfalls mussten wir die Bedienung darauf hinweisen, dass das Essen das über 15 Minuten auf dem Tresen stand, auch mal zu uns zu bringen wäre. Leider war das Essen nicht mehr so warm wie es sein sollte aber trotzdem sehr gut. Man musste auch auf sich hinweisen wenn man noch etwas zu trinken etc. möchte. Auch redet die Bedingung lieber mit den Kunden, als sich um den Service zu kümmern. Bis auf diese leider eher negativ genannten Punkte ein nettes Restaurant. Aber hier und da muss man wirklich aufstocken und dem Personal mal beibringen, wie man so einen Job richtig, gut, flott und nett zu machen hat.

Sehr schönes, alt eingerichtetes Lokal. Perfekte Lage im Sommer und Frühling, da Garten geöffnet ist. Mein Salat mit Pute war gut. Der Service sehr freundlich und fleißig. Das Ambiente kann ich nicht mit 5 Sternen beurteilen, denn das ist Geschmackssache.

2 Service Kräfte an einem Sonntag. Ab 15.00h gab es keinen Kuchen mehr. Sehr enttäuschend.

Bonito lugar para comer y tomarse una cerveza junto el rio rhin

Very nice ambient. Quite popular place, thus not always easy to find a spot. The food you have to order inside and remember the number, as it will be then shown on a screen for you to pick up. Choice is not huge but ok. They have salads, flammkuchen, I recommend Gulasch. Drinks you can order with the servers like beer and wine, but for aperol you also have to go inside into another bar area. This moving around is a bit annoying. The prices are rather high, especially for drinks, especially if Zoo habe to pick them yourself. But the view is amazing and atmosphere is very nice.

Sehr gemütlicher Ort zum Sitzen und zum verweilen. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis bei den Getränken hat Luft nach oben😉

Seit 30 Jahren bin ich immer mal wieder hier. Und aufgrund der Deko bin ich hier im Halloween 🎃 Mir gefällt es hier gut. Gedämpftes Licht, frische Getränke (vor allem der Pfefferminztee) und eine kleine Auswahl an frischen Speisen. Allerdings ist es auch nicht so wirklich preiswert.....

Immer wieder eine ganz besondere Location. Seit Jahrzehnten besuche ich dieses Restaurant und Cafe.Tolle Flammkuchen, superguter Biergarten am Rhein.

Wohlfühlbistro mit Terrasse ganz nah:für Raucher sehr angenehm mit Blick auf den Rhein und unmittelbar verbundenem Biergarten der herlich im Sommer zum Einsatz kommt.Dann gibt's noch das schöne Restaurant mit ganz schönem gar Candle Light und auch da ist die gute Küche gefragt. Alles in allem das Gesamtpaket an Gastronomie mit toller Umgebung was will man mehr. Die Anfahrt auch mit paar Kilometern mehr lohnt aber immer und für mich selbstverständlich. Sowas ist auch nicht überall zu finden. Es ist einfach einmalig !

Liebevolle Details und traumhaftes Ambiente am Rhein

Popped in to have a quick bite for lunch after a tour around this little town called Kaiserswerth. It certainly is a restaurant full of character. The main dining area was closed for function during lunch time, so we were redirected to a smaller bar section in the back towards the Rhine river. The restaurant’s décor is a mixture of the Medieval and Halloween vibe (see pictures). We ordered a couple of flammkuchens and a baked kartoffen to share. The food took a while to arrive, and they tasted very average.

Der beste Biergarten im schönen Kaiserswerth! Einfach top seit meiner Kindheit schon! JR Meerbusch Büderich

Zweite Heimat.Die Speisekarte nach so vielen Jahren etwas langweilig,

Sehr schönes Ambiente, das Essen war auch gut . Kommen gern auf ein weiteren Besuch zum Essen

Sehr schöner Garten mit altem Bäumbestand um z.B. mal schnell ein Bierchen zum Sonnenuntergang zu zischen.

Außer dem schönen Blick auf den Rhein, gibt es hier nichts besonderes. Auf der Karte nur kleine Schnell-Gerichte passend zum Biergartenbetrieb.

Burghof bietet eine familiäre Atmosphäre. Das Personal ist mega sympathisch und entspannt. Ob Salat, Flammkuchen oder Brezeln ist für kleine und große Hunger gesorgt. Immer wieder gerne.

Tolle Lage, nette Leute, schöne Karte. Haben allerdings noch nie drinnen gesessen...

Amazing food, good portions. The service was a bit confusing. I loved my time there, but I can see why non german speaking people wouldn't want to visit.

Die online Speisekarte ist nicht immer aktuell, aber vor Ort gibt es genug Auswahl, dass jeder etwas finden dürfte. Leckerer Salat, fantastischer Ausblick! Unter den Kastanienbäumen hagelt es im Herbst gelegentlich Einschläge von oben :-)

Einer der schönsten Biergärten in der Region. Netter, aufmerksamer Service. Das Angebot an Speisen passt zur Atmosphäre.

Die Flammkuchen waren wirklich sehr lecker und der Service war freundlich und zuvorkommend.
