Gasthaus Alte Mainmühle in Würzburg

Very nice atmosphere in a beautiful city. The view from our place was wonderful. The decor is very comfortable, the food is good, the selection is plentiful, and the prices are reasonable. Really nice restaurant that I can highly recommend.

I was afraid that the excellent location might compromise the quality of the restaurant, but no: the service was fast, precise and kind. The food was tasty and honest. The view is simply magnificent.

A very nice atmosphere where you can enjoy eating out. The food was exceptionally good and highly recommended.

Super delicious Aperol Spritz for bridge shopping! Service was also very nice 😉

Not directly recommended with small children. The view is incredible, the food is delicious. Service was ok.

Very friendly service. Very concerned about the guests. The food was excellent. When reserving a table online, “Date” could be selected. The table then stood in a niche. So that was really taken into account. Highly recommended

Great location right on the water with a view of the Main Bridge. We sat outside and didn't want to leave ;)

I love the crispy fish, and the winter vegetables do surprise me! And the weather does its best!

I highly recommend this restaurant for its excellent and authentic German dishes made with fresh ingredients.

Delicious wine, delicious meals, friendly service, beautiful scenery, 100 points

We had a very good time in the old mill => the food was very good!

The place to go on sunny days for people with a thirst for wine. Window sales of wines. Great idea. The food in the restaurant was also excellent. The only negative point was the service. We waited a good 10 to 15 minutes for the order to be taken. The same with the payment process. The restaurant wasn't even 3/4 full. So be it. The location including the view as well as the food and drink were great.

The food was very tasty and the staff were also very friendly. If you want to enjoy Franconian food, then the restaurant is a good address. We were very satisfied.

Sensationally beautiful, cozy restaurant with attentive, friendly staff. The food was a culinary delight. Everything just fit. If we are in Würzburg again, we will definitely make a reservation in the old Mainmühle again.

Great atmosphere! We had a table on one of the outside decks overlooking the river. The service was very friendly. Serving sizes were ample. Many customers simply purchased drinks from the outside service counter and enjoyed them overlooking the beautiful historic bridge.

Great relaxed atmosphere with a great view. The food was delicious, the staff were very nice. A successful evening.

We went there for a drink at lunchtime. We had a table near the entrance, so every time the door was opened there was a rush of cold air. This happens a lot because there are a lot of people out on the bridge drinking their wine.

Tourist trap! Massively overpriced

Always worth a visit. When the weather is nice, the spot on the balcony with the view of the old Main bridge, the castle and the vineyards is unbeatable. The food is great. The service has always been great.

Very nice, rustic restaurant in a great location in Würzburg. Very good service and everything at the table super quickly.

Went to the Alte Mainmühle several times, as always the food was excellent, I always found something interesting, regional and seasonal on the menu. This time I ate porcini mushroom dumplings with leek vegetables and Belper Knolle (a cheese) as well as a dessert made from Belgian chocolate and Franconian plums, both of which were simply delicious. Since we came by unannounced this time, we were only able to get a seat on the protected and heated Main balcony, but that didn't hurt the atmosphere. Always my pleasure!

After a delicious rose on the Main Bridge, we spontaneously went to the nearby restaurant for lunch. The food was amazing! Staff courteous and extremely friendly. Large selection of wines, great and cozy atmosphere. Fireplace room really chic. Definitely recommended!

All 5 elements evening!!! The wood, the fire in the fireplace, the room and the ambience, fine jazz music, beautiful and delicious wine, pleasant audience. All around a perfect evening! I can only recommend it.

We had a really nice time here. The menu is very varied and every dish was prepared with a lot of love. Especially the meat and the homemade desserts were very tasty. The price-performance ratio is excellent for such good food. The prices were very fair service very attentive and fast everything was well organized I can definitely recommend it

Very nice restaurant, nice staff, “peeing trough” worth seeing

Great evening and really great and cheerful service.

Its location is the best in a very beautiful place. We only ordered some wines from the area, very good although expensive. It is clear that you pay for the location of the place, you can drink these wines in any other place in the city at a much better price, but as I mentioned, you are paying for the place where you drink it, as I said. It is not the worst because the price is accepted but I think that the location of the establishment has to be accompanied by good service for that you assume the price and the service gives a lot to be desired arrogance and arrogance I really hope that this review serves to improve this aspect because the place deserves and so does his clients.

A culinary paradise! The food in this restaurant was simply incredibly delicious – a real treat for the palate. Every bite was a treat that is hard to beat. There is absolutely nothing to complain about, I can only warmly recommend this restaurant. It really was like heaven on earth. The ambience was very pleasant and tastefully designed, which made the stay even more pleasant. The employees were extremely friendly and accommodating, which rounded off the service perfectly. An all-round perfect experience – I’ll definitely be back!

I would have liked to have bought a bottle of wine on site so I could open it later in the camper...unfortunately that wasn't possible 😒

You can't have a better evening. The whole atmosphere from the establishment and the staff and customers is very good. Food and wine perfect. Only top marks

Price/performance not justified. With a higher standard, the fried potatoes should also be prepared in a pan and not briefly held in the deep fryer. Add too much salt. The appetizer labeled as pumpernickel also did not correspond to the description, because there was no slice of bread on the plate but rock-hard bread crumbs. Our complaint was not taken seriously.

We had a very good meal there a few years ago. Now we were back in Würzburg and were really looking forward to a lovely evening. The service was good, but it's not possible to get your high-quality, high-priced dishes faster than in a fast-food restaurant.

Great food, great atmosphere, a bit expensive but quality

The Alte Mainmühle in Würzburg is a real highlight! We were warmly welcomed upon arrival and our dog was immediately provided with a water bowl - very dog-friendly! The wine selection is impressive and offers something to suit every taste. Plus the beautiful ambience with a view of the Main – simply fantastic! The food was consistently excellent. From the starter to the main course to the dessert, everything was high quality, fresh and incredibly tasty. An absolute delight! This restaurant is a real insider tip and definitely worth a visit. We would love to come back!

Very good food, great service and great ambience. Very nice location with a great view. This is really a very professionally run place! Thanks!!

The food was super tasty, but the vegetarians only had two main courses, only one of which was vegan. The portions were very small compared to those with meat. Even a bad eater won't be able to get enough without a starter. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Due to structural reasons, depending on the table, you sit very closely and the neighboring table is also extremely close. Unfortunately, we had the misfortune of sitting next to a very loud group of tourists with little or no well-behaved children. Prices can be higher here.

This is a wine bar and restaurant at the east (Old Town) end of Alte Mainbrucke. In addition to taking meal here there is a take-away order window where you can buy glasses of wine as well as holiday glühwein during the Christmas season to enjoy outside while spending time at the old bridge. Opening hours are 11am to 11pm daily. We stopped here a couple times during our recent visit to Würzburg and enjoyed glühwein (€5 + €5 deposit for the glass). Servings came in an Alte Mainmuhle signature glass which is nice and importantly it tasted very good, nice to have while taking in the views along the river and just enjoying the festive and friendly atmosphere of this location in the Old Town.

Excellent service, very tasty german dishes, awesome wines. Our waiter, Walter from Russia was God sent. Extremely polite helpful and made the night better

Nice restaurant on the old Main bridge. Due to the first-class location, the prices are generally higher, with portions sometimes being smaller. Food: I found my food to be mediocre despite its great appearance (porcini mushroom dumplings on leek vegetables), whereas my friend was very satisfied with his meal (rump steak medium). Therefore overall 4 out of 5 stars for the food. The service was friendly.

Only the atmosphere in the restaurant is nice. But given the price-performance ratio, it doesn't even begin to convince me. Schnitzel for 32 euros which was absolutely unacceptable in terms of quality. You don't get anything more with the schnitzel except a minimalist potato salad, which is also completely disappointing. NEVER AGAIN. Tourist trap, nothing more.

Nice ambience above the Main with a view of the fortress.

We waited almost an hour for our food (probably because there was like three waiters for a completely full, two story restaurant), which ended up being super underwhelming. The Schnitzel was literally just one Schnitzel with a tiny bowl of potato salad, leaves you still feeling hungry. The best part is the interior, looks very nice. Overall seems like a tourist trap, there's loads of cheaper and better restaurants with a similar franconian feel.

For German cuisine, the seasoning is moderate, not too salty, and it is very suitable for Taiwanese tastes. The stewed pork shoulder is very soft, and the bones and meat can be separated with a fork, but the pork skin is too hard for my 30-year-old teeth to chew. Although it looks crunchy and delicious, it is not recommended to eat it. The potatoes on the side have the chewy texture of German QQ...not unpleasant but not delicious either. The signature cider is delicious! recommend!

Food was okay, but service was a disaster. We waited forever until we had a table (even though there was nothing going on). Meanwhile, the staff ran around haphazardly. Once we got a table, we waited forever until we could order. The meal took 45 minutes. When serving, the waitress poured half the soup on my friend. Tourist trap!

We were there for our wedding anniversary and were very ceremoniously welcomed at a specially white-covered table with champagne. The staff looked after us lovingly and we really enjoyed the extra amuse gueule. The food was once again first class😋

Had 4x Schäuferle... bratwurst and fish. Sauerkraut ice cold... but then warmed up again. However, the Schäuferle were the worst we've ever had...hardly any crust, but a thick, soft layer of fat. Meat was tough and barely fell off the bone. It's a shame...especially at a price of 26 euros.

The place is very very good. We just had a local beer and ate a German sausage. But the service, location and food were great.

We were here for dinner and were very satisfied. The service was courteous and friendly, and Schäufele, Franconian wedding food and beer were very tasty. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is the creme brulee.

The Alte Mainmühle directly on (almost on) the old Main bridge is a restaurant with upscale, home-style cuisine. I was here alone without a reservation and easily got a spot at 7 p.m. on a Tuesday in November. However, while I was there, several groups came, some of them large, so that the restaurant filled up well. The food is absolutely excellent. The small mill salad as a starter was fresh with a very good dressing, cress and seeds. Only the sliced ​​baguette was a bit hard because it was (at least) from the day before.🤷🏼‍♂️ However, the braised Schäufele with savoy cabbage, potato dumplings and dark beer caraway sauce was a Franconian dream. The only thing I could complain about here is that I've gotten bigger shovels.🤷🏼‍♂️ But these two little things are whining on an extremely high level and are nowhere near enough to reduce the maximum rating of five stars.☝🏼 The service is extremely friendly, attentive and accommodating. I felt completely at home and will definitely visit this restaurant again if I am in Würzburg again.

Simply top, nice service, nice ambience. We ate sausages with sauerkraut and fried potatoes. Super tasty, world class sauerkraut!!!

This restaurant is in an old building on the Alte Mainbrücke bridge - the old medieval bridge that crosses the Main river and leads to the center of the city. For atmosphere, you can't beat it, and the food was great! The bridge is now just for pedestrians so the area can get pretty busy.

Very nice atmosphere, great view of the Marienberg Fortress, very friendly service and excellent food.

Great ambience 🤩, friendly staff and very good food 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Top

The homemade porcini mushroom dumplings with vegetables were excellent. Service was also great, very friendly service and a cozy, rustic atmosphere. 5/5

Extremely good food, central location with a view of the Main and the fortress and excellent service. What more could you want?!?!?

We chose this restaurant on the occasion of our son's birthday. No recognition of the event at all, something we don't know from other establishments. Above all, the service was unfortunately very poor and made the evening a less than pleasant one. The food portions were clear. The price-performance ratio has decreased significantly (we have been here several times). Now we will unfortunately be leaving this place off our list of restaurants to visit.

The prices are astronomical. For 3 small dumplings with alleged porcini mushrooms, a bit of salad and a smeared plate with sauce 23 euros, yes, just under 24, I took 5 small deserts with a few fried potatoes, which were also dry, a bit of sauerkraut 20 euros. Great restaurant, thank you very much No!!!!?

Very rude and sometimes very challenging waiter in the outside/table area last night. I'll never go there again. Some guests just shook their heads at the behavior of this employee. Incredible

Great location, good food - however, the seating on the balcony is too narrow so that you can no longer sit comfortably and it is rather very cramped and uncomfortable. The heaters above our heads aren't ideal either. It gets very hot on your head directly underneath

We were here spontaneously on the weekend. Kitchen had just closed. We were told there was nothing left. 1 minute late. We were very disappointed. The service staff wasn't exactly the friendliest either. There won't be a repeat, it's a shame...

Excellent food! The poached quail eggs were star-worthy. Difficult to cut and eat from the deep bowl. It is better to use a medium-deep vessel (soup plate). The table service was very nice and quick, even in the peripheral areas - 5 stars. What we didn't like was that guests piled up at the narrow entrance and waited in vain to be welcomed, and they were deliberately ignored for a longer period of time. Some areas were extremely noisy due to group tables, but fortunately we were able to move to a quieter area upon request. Conclusion: Great food, rest ok.

We didn't eat in the restaurant, so I can't rate the food, but we took wine and walked along the bridge. Good idea with the deposit for the glasses, you can return it to the restaurant and get the 5€ deposit, or keep it for yourself) I liked the wine, the bartender was friendly.

Great for a glass of wine on the Main Bridge, but I wouldn't recommend eating here! The price/performance ratio is probably not right. Staff quite young but friendly!

Very cozy and super friendly staff.

Unfortunately the price-performance ratio was very inadequate. Little to eat for a lot of money. Doesn't have to happen again...

We treated ourselves to a glass of wine on the Main Bridge and enjoyed the sun. The serving went quickly. The prices per glass are between 6 and 7 euros, 5 euros are a deposit. The wine was delicious, the glass was filled very full. You can do it!

First the good: The ambience is really nice - depending on where you sit, but unfortunately that's where it starts. It's extremely narrow and unless you're really lucky to get one of the nice niche seats, the ambience isn't of much use. Apart from that, it is very noisy because everything is designed to take up maximum space. When we arrived, the service employee approached us when we asked for another seat. The food came to the table after 5 minutes - so it couldn't have been freshly prepared and that's how it tasted. It was cold and the fried potatoes were floury, cold and kind of hard without being crispy. They were also dripping with fat and barely seasoned. We don't even need to start with the other dishes. We left hungry and paid a fortune for bad food and mass processing. Unfortunately, mmn. simply a bad tourist shed in a prime location.

Everything was super very tasty. I'll definitely be back.

This place is right on the bridge. Served people three ways. You can dine indoors +we did), service is great food is very tasty (we each had schnitzel), and the atmosphere is pleasant. You can come part way in, place a lighter order to go (sandwiches, brautwurst) while standing up waiting, drinking a beer. Or you can walk into a small window just for beer or whine , stand around drinking & socializing whilst looking off the bridge or at the beautiful city.

Great view Very nice service The food was tasty but not justified for the price Unfortunately, garlic granules are used and ruin the whole meal (mashed potatoes).

Unfortunately the change in service staff was not satisfactory. New colleague very rude. Too bad.....

We were here for the second time now. It was perfect except for the draft at the bottom. One of the male service staff seems to live in a tram. In any case, he didn't have it that way with the door. Otherwise as expected, good food, good beer and the service at the table was very good.

Wonderful! Beautiful surreal city!! ❣️

We didn't eat, but a glass of wine is a must...

Everything was amazing.. just loved it😍💓

The restaurant definitely has a great ambience and the way it used to look is great. It's worth a visit

Wanted to have a nice, cozy birthday meal there. Unfortunately it was rather mediocre in all respects. The flavor of the braised venison was very, let's call it, simple. The portion size is not filling for a “normal eater”. Service was poor. We also sat at the door, which was constantly open and so it was cool throughout. I didn't even want to put a dog in that place. All in all very disappointing in this price segment. The company's own claim is fine cuisine and a fine category in general. Unfortunately, it doesn't do it justice. Too bad. Was the last visit in the near future. I was so looking forward to a great meal on my birthday. Too bad.

We have known the Alte Mainmühle for many years. It's a shame how this has deteriorated. Food got 1 star because the ribbon noodles were ok. The ambience in the old Main mill is and remains - very nice. 1 star deduction - Please don't go to the toilet. You can pour yourself wine, but jokes will be made about drinking it. Salad sandy, bread old. Roast venison becomes more dry in the mouth when chewed instead of less - dry. Fried potato - pre-fried - a single mash. Tagliatelle - it worked. Wiener Schnitzel - no, that was a thick breaded piece of meat. Wine - all the wines of 2022 vintages that we selected simply do not exist. The 2023 wine comes without comment. No thanks - we declined. We eat the main course between glasses and plates of the starter - very cozy. At the entrance you can stand in the cold and wait until someone tries to show you the reserved table. Here I like to go to the exit and never come back

Extremely well-kept and trendy restaurant. Great service. Very good food.

Great food, friendly service, nice location

Very nice, cozy old inn. The food came quickly, the service was nice and courteous. Delicious Franconian food in a cozy atmosphere. Can be highly recommended 👍

Very nice restaurant. We only had cafe and dessert but that was very good. Very friendly staff

08/13/2024 Delicious food in a perfect location. We thought the sauerkraut at the Ratskeller tasted more refined. Cake was delicious, beer was nice and cold and plentiful. Nicely located business on the Main, right by the Mainbrücke that provides access to the city center of Würzburg. Service not good: no consideration for placement - we did not want to sit in the sun and there were plenty of tables available, but sitting in the shade was not allowed (the two of us were not allowed to sit at a four-person table, while there were five four-person tables available outside were in the shade). Initially we started with cake and drinks, then also had dinner. But it was very clear that we had to leave ASAP, even though we were allowed to stay until 6:30 PM (and it was only around half past six when we got the dessert menu in some haste). We didn't get the dessert menu either: it was thrown on the table. The message was clear.

The most delicious beer I ever drank in Germany.

The wine was fine. Unfortunately, that's all there is to it. The food is bad and way too salty (if what you ordered is not already finished). For the hefty price you can really expect something better. Really a waste of the wine and your money

Good service, super pleasant atmosphere, the dishes are well served and the price is compatible. When we were here 10 years ago, the plate with 5 sausages were different sausages, now they are all the same.

Great location, good service, very friendly! We'd love to come back,

Very good cuisine, also slightly higher prices, special location right on the old Main bridge, brilliant. a. if you get one of the coveted seats on the balcony - gambling without a reservation, so it's better to call in good time

Rude waiters No thanks Just a rip off

Rustic atmosphere, we only got a wine to take away to drink on the bridge like the others. The Rotling tasted very good and the price was reasonable.

Why make a big deal about it? Everything fits here. The ambience is unbeatable, the service is honestly very attentive (thanks to Monaieur Melgar) and the food and wine are completely convincing. We'd love to come back. There is a very clear Five Star Dwaynson rating here.

Authentic Franconian dishes with good beer and view.

We were here for dinner today and had a nice table on the terrace, the food was very good and a very friendly waiter, which unfortunately is no longer common in some restaurants today

Good restaurant in a historic building right on the old Main bridge. It is possible to buy drinks from street vendors and drink them comfortably on the bridge. The outdoor seating has a great view of the fortress and the pilgrimage church. The food is not cheap, but it is high quality and tasty.

We used to always like to come to the Alte Mainmühle on the Main Bridge. My friends organized my bachelorette party in Würzburg. Unfortunately, the boss said that there would be no bar for bachelorette parties on site. This really annoyed me and I will only visit the Mainwein Ausschank in the future.

Quite a nice place. Sometimes our drinks were forgotten or we had to wait a long time for them. Food good, prices a bit high. In the middle of the tourist hotspot. Unfortunately a bit inflexible when it comes to intolerances.

Food is very, very expensive and the quality leaves a lot to be desired. Service very satisfied.

Beautiful inn with a great terrace and a wonderful view of the festivals. Food was impeccable. Service still has room for improvement.

Franconian restaurant directly on the Main.
