Gasthaus Zum Bären in Frankfurt am Main

Had dinner there with the family yesterday. Rustic atmosphere, very friendly welcome. We had reserved. This is recommended because it was very well attended. Drinks were requested and delivered quickly, The map is varied but not too big, if you don't find what you're looking for it's your own fault. Very attentive service, attention is paid to the little things... "For the child, fries with or without salt?" .. Class! Stay calm and keep an overview despite the full restaurant. The food came quickly and was good. Overall a recommendation. Thanks!

A fantastic inn. Apparently we were lucky to get a table for lunch that same evening because the house was completely full. After ordering - the menu offers something for many tastes - the starter was quickly brought to the table. We didn't have to wait long for the main course either. But even a longer wait would have been more than worth it: the food tastes excellent! You can taste that sauces, side dishes, dips, etc. are all made fresh, nothing tastes remotely like convenience. This is how I imagine good, honest cuisine. There are almost no frills, but portions that left me more than satisfied. The service was extremely friendly and accommodating. I'll come back any time I get the chance. An absolute recommendation and worth a detour!

Delicious traditional dishes in a historic setting. Good price-performance ratio

We had a great evening with delicious dishes, beer, wine and medlar and the best service "Berbel". Greetings from Igor and the other 7😘

Nice service, delicious food and a beautiful outdoor area on the Höchster Schlossplatz with a view of the castle. Even in the cold season you can sit comfortably and comfortably inside. The food here has always been excellent and I can recommend it with a clear conscience.

Thank you for the lovely evening!

Very cozy restaurant. Is worth a visit

Everything was great. Clear recommendation

Great foodband service, best Schweinehaxe

A nice, rustic inn. The food is simply great and can only be recommended. The service is super friendly, unfortunately you don't get that everywhere these days. We were all very happy with our food. 😊 Unfortunately I wasn't able to take any photos, so I'll add them next time. 😊

Typical Frankfurt guest house, very well maintained and cozy atmosphere. Nice terrace. Very friendly service, exceptional. Normal, classic dishes, but with good quality and fair prices.

The food is very good and well priced. The rooms seem "rustic" and it is very loud in the restaurant because it was full. It's probably better to sit outside the restaurant. The conditions were very friendly and nice. Despite the full house, they had everything under control and were very quick to serve. The restaurant can be recommended. It was a lovely evening. The special cards with elk or other specialties are also something special.

Rachid and Serkan, incredibly cool crew. Food was delicious and great value for money. Keep it up!

Quaint pub/inn with fun, friendly staff and good food. Recommended

Delicious German food at moderate prices. Friendly staff.

Best restaurant in Frankfurt!!!

I had pre-booked a table and it worked great. The evening was very nice, the service was very good, the food tasted great.

Rustic inn with flair, 1a food and great staff. Ten of us went there for dinner on the occasion of a birthday. The woman celebrating her birthday was surprised with a birthday tarte flambée with apple rings and a serenade from the entire guest room. I thought that was really nice! However, you can only go there on a Friday evening with a reservation - it was packed full and therefore noisy (which the innkeepers can't do anything about). I'm just writing this so that you know in advance what you should be prepared for. I would go to the Bären again at any time - a clear thumbs up!

We looked forward to an exciting time in the historic Hochst community... As it was Octoberfest time.. However, there was not a soul in the neighborhood... Completely empty!! The restaurant was good.. food was good... Just not sure what happened to area.. We figured it out when another person sat to eat next to us.. the waiter greated with a noticeable As-salamu alaykum.. You get the picture

Super tasty, great food, cozy atmosphere. Great service. Rachid, you are doing a great job 😉. The best medlars in Frankfurt. Thank you for the lovely evening.

We were traveling with a tour group and graduated from the Bären. There were 40 of us in total and everything went like clockwork. Great service, very friendly and competent team. The food was very good. Lots of praise from our ranks for choosing the location. Of course our people were also enthusiastic about the Höchst old town.

We haven't been there for a long time. Now it has worked again. The knuckle was a blast. And the Frankfurter Brett was mega. Unfortunately there was no dark beer. Too bad. Nevertheless, if we are in the area again we will come back. 👍

Very good food and beer. The waiters were always very attentive

Rustic but excellent, good home-style cuisine with a wide range of offerings from classic Frankfurt to something unusual.

I have been visiting the Bear occasionally for many years and have always been very satisfied. Today I was there with foreign guests. There was a criticism of a meal. However, the very dedicated restaurant manager Aldo resolved the matter promptly and satisfactorily. Thank you Aldo and thank you Elias for the good and friendly service.

Discovered by chance and loved it! Very courteous advice on regional cuisine and quick acceptance of our orders (including small changes to the menu). Homemade lemonade is absolutely top! The food was freshly prepared and tasted excellent. Thanks to the team :-)

Unfortunately, the food wasn't that great. But the staff were very friendly and took our complaining calmly and let the plate go back without complaining.

I had imagined more of the food. Quality nothing special. The only things that are good are the fried potatoes and the apple cider.

Wonderful view, great food. The Schlossplatz and the banks of the Main as well as the market and the small market hall are a real gem or jewel in Höchst. Great Habdkäse…

Beautiful, idyllic place, inside and out. After the hustle and bustle in Frankfurt or Frankfurt Höchst, you'll find peace and quiet here in turbo gear. The staff is cozy and very nice in a natural way. The food was delicious. Typical Hessian cuisine, very well prepared. Somehow you feel at home and would like to lie down on a sofa somewhere. ☺️

It's always nice to eat here. Service was super nice and food was very tasty.

A little quick next to the door in autumn. Gluten free not declared.

The food tasted very good, but the portion was a bit smaller for the price. Service was very good and the staff is very friendly, especially the employee Ensar.

The food is extremely tasty and offers enough variations. The drinks are varied and delicious. The service is simply perfect. The only small drawback is the noise inside when it's full, but the atmosphere is still quaint.

As always: -Food super tasty -Service is always friendly and present -In a top location, very close to the old town 😊

Great cuisine, perfect service (you do it so well) and a cozy atmosphere, what more could you want? We always love eating at Bären. You have to be hungry because the portions are official. The service is super attentive and friendly. Anytime and always with pleasure.

Quaint Frankfurt restaurant with great food and service. Vanessa is great, friendly, smart and quick. I can only recommend it!

Ate here for the second time... And are again very impressed with the food, service and also the ambience.

Very friendly staff especially Marina

Quaint restaurant on Höchster Schlossplatz with delicious food, very nice service at decent prices. All in all recommended.

I was here with customers of 10 people, it was quick and the service was friendly and nice

very nice setting on a mid evil castle square, tasty food and nice service

The food was tasty, but the cheeseburger was a bit overdone. Nice ambience. Reservation recommended.

Fantastic home-style food, very tasty, beautifully presented and with excellent service. I would come back at any time.

A truly Bavarian atmosphere with food and drinks as you would expect from Bavaria. Good selection, delicious food, great drinks and a very friendly staff. Worth a recommendation if you are in Frankfurt and want to spend a cozy evening.

Service was super nice and the food was fresh and tasty.

A visit to “Zum Bären” is more than just a meal – it is a journey into the world of middle-class hospitality and German cuisine.

I can fully recommend “Zum Bären” and am already looking forward to my next visit to once again enjoy the delicious dishes and the warm atmosphere.

I've had green sauce for the first time - so delicious wow However, it was annoying that the food was so hip... I would have imagined it to be a bit more traditional looking

The food was just perfect. The Tafelspitz, the Frankfurt plate with green sauce - incredibly delicious 😋. And what was striking was the extremely friendly service from the young waiters. Super! We felt very comfortable and will definitely come back when we are in Frankfurt again. Thank you.

I had the cheese spaetzle. Reminded me of my childhood with the German grandparents. They have English menus.

Extremely friendly, food was very tasty, I didn't even get credit for the spilled wine, even though I was the one who caused it, and I got a new glass.

We had reserved tables for almost 70 people for a get together on the eve of our wedding and had a really successful evening. Fast and uncomplicated communication both on site and in advance, great food and great service - absolute recommendation even for larger groups! We'd love to come back!

Very nice economy. Rachid is simply the best waiter😍

Great service! Thanks to Rachid and colleagues. We had a very tasty meal as a family of 13 people. We were more than satisfied.

Typical German inn. Quick and friendly service. The shank was good, minus the schnitzel. Honest prices

Birthday dinner with friends, usual quality.

We were thrilled for the first time, the food was super tasty and the staff were nice and would love to come back

WHOEVER VISITS WILL ALSO COME TO THE SCHLOSSPLATZ AND IT'S A MUST-SEE!

Good food, friendly service and a nice ambience. Although there were a lot of guests there, we didn't have to wait long for drinks.

Nice, high quality food, service overloaded but friendly

Thank you for the really friendly and personable service and the excellent food. We'd love to come back soon!

One of several traditional inns in Höchst. The quality of the food was okay, the prices, like almost everywhere, were high. Since we were sitting outside on benches without backrests, it was a bit uncomfortable. Maybe that's asking too much of us... 40€ with tip for 1x green sauce with eggs, 1x salad with baked sheep's cheese + 1 bottle of mineral water.

The ambience is great until I got my food. The bear cheeseburger was anything but tasty. The meat was cooked like a shoe sole. It wasn't juicy at all. I had hoped that it was only like that in one place, but that wasn't the case. I gave the food back to the waiter because I can't force myself to eat something like that despite being hungry. Then his manager came and talked to me about it too and asked me if I would like a replacement, which I thought was good, but with the hint that it would take at least (!) another 25 minutes. I declined because the four of us wanted to eat together. Then he offered me a hand cheese - wow, that will fill you up completely. He also offered me a bratwurst, which I also declined, as the evening had ended with food for me and it ultimately didn't fill me up. He then told the waiter that he should cancel the burger. A short time later the manager came back and asked us if he could invite us for 4 espressos, after all he wanted us to go home satisfied. Side note, the espresso was bad and is not recommended. When we paid we asked for the bill. The canceled burger was still listed at €16.90. The espressos had €0 on them. We asked the supervisor again. He then told us, “The burger is on it because I gave you four espressos.” I thought I wasn’t hearing correctly. I'm really not the one who constantly discusses things, but this is also about the principle. A canceled burger that is still charged and a “can I invite you for 4 espressos” ends up becoming “yes, how do we want to do it now, suggest something”. What should I suggest as a guest if you get a terrible burger and are invited to 4 bad espressos? We agreed that he would cancel the burger and we would pay for 2 out of 4 espressos. Our waiter Rashid wasn't the best either but what else can you say. It's a shame how the quality of this restaurant has deteriorated massively.

Food was very tasty and the service was also good. The pork knuckle was just too big for me in the end. The only thing I found a bit annoying was that it was very full and that people were constantly standing 3m away from the table, waiting for someone to leave, even though it was said that nothing was free.

I love this place & the staff is best🤗

Very tasty food, top service that is on point and a great ambience. Gladly again.

The ambience was okay, but it was quite loud. Unfortunately the service was very slow.

Super nice, attentive service. Very tasty food.

A very rustic, cozy cider restaurant with lots of charm and delicious 😋 😋 food

Food was super tasty. Service was quick and very friendly despite the busy outdoor area.

Service was nice and very quick. Cozy courtyard but also very crowded. Unfortunately, the chanterelle sauce on the schnitzel and on the noodles was tasteless. Bread dumplings very dry and little taste.

No matter what you order, it tastes the way it should taste! the service is extremely nice. The atmosphere is very nice, especially in summer!

We went to the Bären twice at the weekend. The food is really good and the menu offers something for everyone. The salads were also very good, which is rather unusual for “hearty” restaurants. The service deserves high praise! Fast, friendly and in a good mood. Our highlight was definitely our service My Lan!

Great atmosphere, right next to the castle and nice to be able to sit outside. It was extremely busy and we were happy to have reserved. Personally, I find the prices very high and not entirely justified for the food - the two hand cheese sausages with puree, sauerkraut and sauce €16.95. I didn't even find the food that tasty. It's a shame actually. At least my friend enjoyed the schnitzel. Apple cider was all the better for it. I would come back to drink, but not to eat.

If you have to, you can even get something to drink at 10:00 in the morning. And the outside area is already completely covered, not like the competition next door has the whole "muddle" ;-)))

The restaurant is clean and the restrooms in the wooden building are also very clean and beautiful.

Incredible service. Typical German food. Absolutely charming place. A journey through time.

Great location on Schlossplatz in Höchst with very good food and friendly staff. I'd love to come back

Excellent place to eat very good typical German dishes, with excellent beer, very kind and friendly staff

Delicious! Price/performance definitely fits! And the service is prompt, polite and very humorous! Simply Hessian 😃👍💪

We got a seat on the Schlossplatz and had a good meal, as always. If you like fried potatoes, this is a great place for you.

Freshly prepared meals with high quality ingredients. In summer you can sit outside very nicely.

Very nice service - food really tasty

In summer you can simply sit beautifully in the highest old town. The service is quick and always friendly. The home-style cuisine is super tasty and highly recommended. I like coming here and look forward to every visit. There are various offers throughout the year that will whet your appetite for more.

Very friendly staff. The place is buzzing! The food is really delicious and well priced

Great inn with good food, great service and relaxed atmosphere.

Very good veal schnitzel. However, the accompanying fried potatoes could have used a little more color from baking.

Even late in the evening the kitchen was still open and we had a delicious meal. The service was really extremely friendly and the location with a view of the square with the castle was simply very romantic. The prices were very reasonable and the food matched the Hessian cuisine. In short, you don't find a place like this very often. Clear recommendation from me, hopefully it will stay with you for a long time

German cuisine in a beer house atmosphere. Service is fast an the portions are large.

Best Frankfurter Schnitzel in the world, highly recommended Service top Food is even a 9999999999/10

Very good food and sufficient large portions 🫣

Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with the food on our last visit. We were there at lunchtime during the week and it was moderately busy. We ordered the bear cheeseburger and the schnitzel with bread dumplings and chanterelle cream sauce. The cheeseburger came with no sauce and an untoasted bun that looked like it was the cheapest burger bun you could buy at the grocery store. Otherwise a leaf of lettuce and a piece of tomato, and of course the patty with cheese, with fries and a glass of “ketchup”. The price of €16.90 for this is pretty proud. The schnitzel was obviously frozen, and there was also cold, not fresh-looking chanterelle cream sauce and bread dumplings that tasted a bit strange, at least not fresh and tasty as you would expect. Here too, the price of €20.50 is not appropriate. This time we were really disappointed, we are not used to anything like this from bears. We even held our wedding reception there a few years ago because we are used to good food here. In any case, we won't be coming back any time soon...

The food was okay. The atmosphere and service improved the experience for my family and friends. They also accommodated a party of 6 without a reservation.

The food was super tasty and had an optimal portion size. Not too much and not too little. It was also finished within a maximum of 10 minutes. We sat really nicely in the courtyard. The waitress regularly asked if everything was okay or if you needed anything else. They were all very friendly and accommodating! The price-performance ratio is also right! Clear recommendation!

Always very good. The service is very friendly and in a good mood. Nice atmosphere, especially if you can sit outside in summer.

Nice outdoor area, nice service. The food was appealing and tasty.

Everything's okay. Food doesn't blow your mind. Quite expensive. Nice location. Service was very good.

Everything fine. There is no better service and food anywhere!

Hessian specialties and other things at reasonable prices. All service staff are always in a good mood, even when things are stressful. Short waiting times, simply a top address!

The ambience is quite nice, but it still doesn't make up for the poor service. Very unfriendly service person.
