Gasthaus "Zum Ochsen" in Wertheim

Nice inn which has the bar as the central point. Food was very tasty and the service was very nice.

The coffee and cakes were delicious 😋

Lovely surprise walking into this place on a whim. The lady serving, was friendly funny and professional. Food was great and well priced and for such an old establishment it was nice, clean and comfortable. Will go again when in town

Quaint, old German inn. Cozy. Attentive and friendly service. Dogs welcome! Good, down-to-earth food. We can recommend the boiled beef with horseradish sauce.

After many people told me that I should definitely go to the Ochsen in Wertheim, I did so together with my family. We had my little 2 month old daughter with us. I've never been looked at like that by all the other guests in a restaurant. As if they had seen a bany for the first time. After my wife of course also had to breastfeed, which she did discreetly without disturbing people and which shouldn't be a problem at all in 2024, the conversations in the room above us became louder and she heard everything. Impossible and rude! The food didn't blow me away. My rind at the Dchäufele was tough and inedible, the beef broth was definitely mixed with ready-made powder. The menu in English tells me that mostly tourists eat here. I will no longer come and pass on my experiences. That's not possible for the prices.

Rustic and polite. Mega delicious huge portion e.g. Käsespetzle pan. My favorite is the house salad with buckwheat as a crunch.

On the recommendation of the staff, we decided to order smaller portions of the spaetzle. However, what we were served was a bitter disappointment. The portions were so tiny that they could hardly have been considered an appetizer - simply cheeky for the price charged. The dishes arrived at the table lukewarm, which significantly affected the enjoyment of some dishes. The taste of the food was just average. Our polite feedback about the food was received rather unfriendly by the staff. For such service and the quality of the food, the restaurant cannot be recommended. As an apology we got a soft drink on the house. Overall, unfortunately, a disappointing visit that we will certainly not repeat.

The waitress is wonderful and very nice, she speaks a little French. I would have loved to spend a few days teaching him French 😘 I loved it, the place is unusual and pleasant

Rustic inn, right on the market square, in the middle of the old town of Wertheim. The food was very tasty and the staff was extremely friendly. Clear recommendation. Reservation recommended.

great... outfit ; as well as the food was very tasty...!!!

The service was friendly and the food came quite quickly... At the table we had schnitzel with fries and broccoli/cauliflower fried and some potato gratin... The schnitzel dish was nothing... no small garnish, no sauce... So it was food truck food ..The vegetarian dish was bitter because it was fried incorrectly and for too long. But I got a discount for that...The gratin was good...But this place isn't worth coming back to

We had a delicious meal there on a Monday evening, where there are many restaurants. The menu has something for everyone and the service was great! Thank you!

Nice cozy restaurant, The menu is quite large for the small shop, but in the end there is something for everyone.. The food also tasted quite good I was really impressed by the friendly service staff at the beginning.. friendly, polite and very nice to children.. But at the end when I was paying I felt angry after she literally begged for a tip..

I would recommend this lovely restaurant

We were on the way from vacation for an overnight stay in Wertheim. Looking for a Franconian restaurant, we stopped at “Zum Ochsen” for lunch. We found the food, the ambience and, last but not least, the staff so refreshingly warm and friendly that we went there again in the evening to eat. The food, wine and beers tasted wonderful. Even in the evening, despite the full restaurant, the service and friendliness of the new employees was unsurpassed, calm and perfect. Keep it up, thank you. Best regards

Unfortunately no longer an insider tip... the food is excellent... Very friendly staff, the name Gasthaus says it all, you always feel very welcome as a guest Unfortunately always very busy, reservations recommended

The ox breast with horseradish is highly recommended, but unfortunately the fried Maultaschen were not good. The vegetables are overcooked and greasy. Still a very cozy place and very friendly service.

Great restaurant with nice and friendly service. We had bratwurst with cabbage (delicious). For special requests, for me no bread, potatoes... No problem.

We wanted to have lunch there on October 3, 2024 while passing through. Were there before 12 p.m., many reserved tables, e.g. B. from 1:30 p.m. When asked, we were not allowed to sit at the table. We would have finished lunch long ago by 1:30 p.m. We certainly didn't need more than 1 1/2 hours, we said. The young employees explained that the guests who had made reservations could arrive earlier. That was anything but businesslike. This can also alienate customers.

The restaurant is super super tasty and the service is very friendly and fast. The prices are very fair for the quality offered. The option to reserve online is practical, and you can even order food directly if necessary. This will then be served very quickly after arrival. I have never experienced this so quickly in another restaurant. We would love to come back and can recommend it to everyone.

Good home cooking, exactly what you would expect in a house like this! Service is also good. Liquor with flies in it can happen, without a reaction from the service, but that's just stupid, at least we didn't have to pay for it.

Very good home-style food. Nice service. Nice ambience.

I was here for the second time today with my son 😊. I felt like having a Schäufele, as a starter we had soup and nuggets with fries for my son. The soup was hardly seasoned but that depends on what you like anyway. The nuggets with fries were great! Then the Schäufele came and oh god the entire dish was disappointing, nothing about it was tasty or easy to cut! I even heard whispers from the next table that it probably wasn't the first time. I took all of the food with me (completely) and wasn't asked why, even though we were still there for a while. Well...the service was nice but you have to ask 😅. What the hell!

Very nice restaurant in the heart of Wertheim. You can sit nicely both outside and inside. Service is friendly, prices are moderate. We ordered two different dishes. One was very good (cordon bleu), the other (sausage salad) was unfortunately completely lacking in seasoning.

Quite rustic restaurant in the middle of Wertheim. The food - goulash with dumplings and bratwurst with fries was very good and the service was nice.

Zonder reservering is het vinden van een goed restaurant aan de romantische Strasse een hele uitdaging. Gelukkig mochten we hier, in het enige restaurant waar ook nog een bar aanwezig is, aan de bar eten. Te midden van een aantal lokale bewoners, die genoten van de diverse bieren op de tap, hebben wij genoten van een heerlijke biefstuk.

Went there to eat and had Schäufele, which really disappointed us. The meat was rather dry and didn't come off the bone particularly well. Unfortunately the crust wasn't particularly crispy. According to the menu, the side dish would have been dumplings. Fried bread dumplings were served. There was a little too little sauce, but we were given additional sauce. The service was very nice.

Little selection, unfortunately just average! Portion could be more!⁰

Ambience in the beer garden is very appealing. Beer very tasty and nicely chilled. The service and the food were ok. A bit sloppy when assigning tables. We didn't like the food that much. The fried cauliflower and broccoli was over fried. The CordonBleu for €20 is almost an impudence given its size. But the taste is ok. I wouldn't recommend eating here.

Really delicious schnitzel! The fries were super fresh and hot! They came w a delicious spice on them as well. Unfortunately no tap water, only bottled water available. Service was good, nothing amazing, pretty simple. Super cute and aesthetic eating area tho! All in shade and private, off the walking road.

The Gasthaus zum Ochsen is a cozy and authentic old parlor. We received a friendly welcome there and were given a comfortable place in the guest room. Our food (Schäufle & Käsespätzle) was really tasty and well prepared! Worth a real recommendation ;)

Very tasty naturally cloudy beer. Food is reasonably priced and tastes good!

Had dinner there with motorcycle friends, just schnitzel fries, good to eat as always and a reasonably large portion.

This location is a must when we are in Wertheim Friendly, attentive, fast Food also excellent

As a cycling tourist passing through, we went here for dinner today. Heard a lot of good things about the restaurant and the food... we had to try it. Let's put it this way... the beer was cold and tasty but at over €5 for a 0.5er it wasn't exactly a bargain. The time between ordering and delivery of the drinks was not exactly a masterpiece at 20 minutes. The "house specialty" the "Schäufele" was very tasty on the inside but completely dry on the side and was left on the plate. The resulting note to the operator was acknowledged with the comment “I know”. What should we conclude from this? The waitress knows that the food that is being served is not perfect? The cordon bleu was very tasty but not very big... well, apparently you can't be very hungry. It took another half an hour before we could grab someone to pay. All in all, unfortunately not more than 3 stars. It wasn't a total failure, but it could definitely be improved.

We went to the Ochs to eat Schäufele, unfortunately the crust wasn't chewable. The rind is actually the most important thing; it has to be crispy but also cuttable and chewable. Neither was given. It's a shame, I was so happy. The schnitzel was also not what we expected. The breading was rather soft, fries and meat were good.

The Schäufele was delicious again.

Very very tasty and good portions. 1. Cheese spaetzle 2.Scheufele

I was really impressed by the delicacies served in this establishment, and I was particularly impressed by the various variations of the rump steak. The choice of beer in favor of the Distelhäuser brewery is debatable, but you can make ends meet with yeast and naturally cloudy pilsner. By the time you start drinking the clear drinks, all doubts should disappear; the Prinz schnapps are truly worth enjoying. The food and drinks are served by extremely friendly, cooperative and capable staff, who can be highly praised here. All in all, highly recommended.

The food is very tasty and the waiters are always on their toes. Can only be recommended.

We ate there and sat outside and it was delicious. Service very friendly. Gladly again

Per l’ennesima volta ho la fortuna di soggiornare in questa magnifica struttura. Camere dignitose, spa molto carina e spazi aperti veramente belli. La perla di questo luogo è la qulita degli ambienti, sempre curatissimi a seconda delle stagioni e la colazione che è veramente top

Have you had a long bike ride? Stomach is on the floor? Here it is filled! The portions are large, cheap and very tasty. You will also receive quick and very friendly service. If necessary, call ahead and reserve a table, otherwise you may not get a table. Zum Oschen is known and popular among locals and tourists.

Unmöglich! Reservierter Tisch. Nach 20 Minuten gegangen, weil bis dahin bei einem nur zu 2/3 gefüllten Lokal, noch nicht einmal eine Getränkebestellung entgegengenommen wurde. Nie wieder!

Delicious food in this nice restaurant! Food was on the table quickly and tasted very good. Service is very friendly and helpful. If I'm in the area I will definitely come back!

I always ask myself why no restaurant can fry the salad with turkey or chicken strips until they are crispy and still soft on the inside. Next time I'll give this one back.

Absolutely recommendable restaurant on the market square in Wertheim. Even though we arrived shortly before the kitchen closed, we were still well looked after and served excellent food by the restaurant team. If you're looking for delicious, authentic food at really reasonable prices, this is the place for you. The interior of the restaurant is quaint, and the small courtyard behind the underpass is also very cozy. Thank you for the good hospitality!

anlässlich einer Radreise speisten wir im Restaurant Ochsen 🐂 . Nette Innenterrasse . freundliches Personal. Fränkische Bratwürste mit Sauerkraut. Käsespätzle mit gebratenen Zwiebel. Süffiges Schwarzbier Alles lecker 😋 und frisch.

Quite ok, but clumsy and slow service (e.g. food falls on clothes and not even sorry, spilled espresso) and dirty table = dirty shirt sleeves. What was not recognized in the dark light

Very attentive service. Delicious food, what more could you want.

Here you can find the best cheese spaetzle on God's earth! 😋👍👍

Oversalted soup. ready-made sauces. Frozen bag fries. Good for drinking beer. As a restaurant: failure. In short: tourist trap.

Best inn far and wide, no matter what you eat, it's just great

Friendly and fast service, good food, fair prices.

Very friendly and attentive service and delicious food. We'd love to come back

Great place. Complete dishes cost around €18, but they are really plentiful. All very good. Very friendly service, the waitress spoke English. Excellent beer.

Not cheap, but very tasty! Friendly staff and good service.

Had a great meal at the Ochsen again today, very high quality products, whether meat Schäufelsche or fish zander at a very good price-performance ratio. GLADLY AGAIN.

Service and ambience were really great but unfortunately the food wasn't good. I always call it assembly line food. The potatoes taste like they were from the day before :-(

Zum vorgezogenen Abendessen mit Freunden. Freundliche Bedienung, gemütlicher Innenhof und rustikales Rstaurant.

Unlike many, our Schäufele was boiled rather than fried, and the rind was crispy. A disappointment in terms of appearance and taste. Here, too, no questions were asked. Dumplings and the sauce were good. Staff top. Beer garden better than the nice atrium.

Home cooking. Everything a little greasy. Nice personel. Priced a bit too high. It is incomprehensible that the tables in the courtyard can be used when the weather is nice but at the same time everything inside is reserved. Service is different.

Cordon Bleu was chewy and fried potatoes were swimming in oil. Goat cheese was supposed to be served on fried oranges, oranges were not fried. Service was nice but not that on point

As a group you are not in good hands there! The service staff was simply overwhelmed that evening, drinks that were not ordered were brought (and taken away again) - and were therefore billed incorrectly. The salmon was old and tasted “transky” - really inedible. Took a week to heal the after effects. I'm sorry, but I won't be coming here again.

Friendly service but understaffed. Maybe you should occupy fewer tables and make the guests happy. Waiting 20 minutes for drinks doesn't make you happy. The food was good. The Schäufele are great.

Heute war es wieder soweit. Gastronomie vs. Single. Reserviert war Tags zuvor persönlich ,für den folgenden Tag, ein bestimmter Tisch. Wurde auch von der Bedienung vor meinen Augen gebucht. Angekommen am reservierten Tag und passende Stunde war der Tisch vergeben und ich sollte mich zu anderen Personen an einen Tisch setzen. Es wurde KEINE Alternative von der Bedienung angeboten. Auch wenn die Restaurantleiterin dies abgestritten hat. Fazit: Singles nicht erwünscht! Bin sehr enttäuscht über diese Ausgrenzung!

A quaint inn with good food and great hosts. You feel welcome. The selection of food and drinks is great.

New attempt after years, disappointed several times. Ordered food, at the table after 3 minutes??? But you're happy to wait a little longer for quality... Conclusion: lukewarm, tasteless goulash, watery sauce without any seasoning, 4 cubes of meat, 3 slices of napkin dumplings (rubbery, also tasteless - finished product), advertised as a large portion... haha ​​- rather a children's portion for €17.90. Dry cheese spaetzle with no kick...disappointed child! The friendly waitress also said this...asked for another chance...but she was - never again!

Unfortunately, the Franconian Schäufele was neither tender nor juicy - a disappointment! In view of what was left, the friendly waitress refrained from asking the usual question about how it tasted... We had reserved two places "outdoors when the weather is nice" - these were located in the drafty atrium of the spacious building. If you would like to sit in the beer garden: It is located at the back, unfortunately all the seats there were occupied.

Here you can find homemade (honest) food at reasonable prices. It's just a shame that I live over 200km away. Otherwise I would be a regular.

The food was very tasty, but we had to wait over an hour for the food despite it being very busy. The service also leaves something to be desired. Ambience very rustic which has a certain charm, but not well maintained. Tables are sticky and the wood is worn... The smoke comes in so that you feel like you're in the middle of a smoking room.

It's certainly not all bad Oxen at the market square. Outstanding Salad cellars, tasty dishes. A nimble but friendly one Service. The boss makes the guest wait in an annoying way, even though she doesn't have anything important to do. Very annoying.

We have been coming here for years, but today the smell you smell upon entering (sour cleaning smell) hit you, but we got a nice spot in the cozy part and drank a delicious beer. Ordered asparagus with a rump steak, but it hasn't been that bad in a long time. Soggy sour asparagus, gratin (normal potatoes were already a problem) and streaky steak (certainly not rump steak) after asking, it was tasty (asparagus is still there as well as the gratin) no. So I paid and the lady indicates that a tip is normal in Germany 😂 I eat more of the time in Germany than in the Netherlands, but I did not expect this after the tasteless food as a discussion, hence this review. We ate here more than 25 times (also often for work with colleagues), but unfortunately this was the last time.

Were there for the first time, rustic restaurant with a long history, ideal for beer drinkers as there are many different types, hearty food, I chose vegetarian food, very expensive and not particularly good, goulash and other dishes were very well received, beautiful location, with a covered courtyard.

We had a delicious meal here this evening. We'd love to come back.

Highly recommended. Above-average portions, very good quality, friendly and quick service. Good value for money

We found this place and thought we’d give it a go. The staff were pleasant and spoke to us in English once they knew we didn’t speak much German. We ordered some dishes but one of them that arrived was no as advertised in the menu. So was disappointing. Other than that. It was a good place to eat.

Essen sieht gut aus - schmeckt aber großteils nicht. Beilagen passen nicht immer zum Thema. Pommes und Salat sind gut . Schäufele geht auch.

The Schäufele was a delight, and the Cordon Bleu on the second visit was also very tasty! Nice staff and moderate prices, you should make a reservation on the weekend.

If you were in Wertheim Village, you shouldn't miss the opportunity to drive into the village and stop at the rustic Gasthaus zum Ochsen. Traditional cuisine, fresh and tasty. It's worth it.

A cozy inn and the food was good.

Direkt in der Fußgängerzone des schönen Wertheimer Marktplatzes liegt der "Ochse", Parkplätze gibt es unweit von hier am Tauber-Parkplatz oder am Main. Uriger, rustikaler Gastraum - insbesondere, wenn man weiß, dass hier früher ein Kino war (im Eingangsbereich sieht man noch die Vitrinen, in den früher die Plakate von "Winnetou" oder "Casablanca" hingen). Wenn man es etwas heller haben will, gibt es im hinteren Bereich noch einen weiteren kleinen Gastraum Freundlicher und effektiver Service, wir waren schon öfter hier und haben in netter Atmosphäre die wirklich gute Badisch-Fränkische Küche und ein frisch gezapftes Pils oder einen Fränkischen Wein genossen - es wird nicht das letzte Mal gewesen sein!

An institution in Wertheim. Now what strikes me negatively: the beer prices are at big city levels. 0.33l Distelhäuser non-alcoholic €4.10, half €5.10. This is more expensive than in Aschaffenburg etc. Accepting that is a matter of principle. Too bad.

Quaint restaurant in the middle of Wertheim's old town. Very friendly service staff and very tasty, home-style cuisine at very fair prices. If you like something a little rustic, this is the place for you.

Leider wird es von Mal zu Mal schlechter…immer mehr Speisen werden von der Karte gestrichen und bis das Personal mal zum Tisch kommt dauert es sehr lange. Ebenso hat die Küche nur noch bis 20 Uhr geöffnet. Schade dass man die letzten guten Restaurants in der Stadt selbst kaputt macht als Eigentümer.

Ambience ok, service courteous and friendly. Quality of food and price/performance one of the worst experiences in a long time. Prices are a matter of opinion and it's Wertheim am Main and not Am A-de-W... but you can still make an effort or leave it alone. Cordon Bleu raw pork inside. It ruined my appetite so much that I didn't want another one afterwards. It was removed from the bill (which was the minimum) but no offer of a digestive (I could have really used it) or a dessert or anything like that. Just a friendly reminder to come back again. The remaining dishes were small, expensive and tasted on a canteen level (although I've had better food in many canteens - so it's more of a saying). Definitely not a recommendation. There are much better alternatives locally for the same or less money. Too bad.

Der Ochsen liegt direkt am Marktplatz in der Wertheimer Altstadt. Uriger Gasthof, viel Holz, ein historisches Gebäude eben. Die Speisekarte ist bürgerlich fränkisch, es gibt auch ein Tagesangebot. Es gibt eine große Anzahl an sehr guten Fassbieren, aber auch die Weinkarte ist ordentlich. Wir wurden rasch und freundlich bedient, obwohl das Lokal sehr voll war. Unser Essen war frisch zubereitet und sehr schmackhaft. Die Preise sind für Lage und Qualität okay. Eine Reservierung ist besonders zu Stoßzeiten empfehlenswert. Das Lokal verfügt auch über einen teilweise überdachten ruhigen Biergarten.

Delicious food, very friendly service, we would love to come back. :)

At the beginning we were welcomed and served by a very friendly service person. Unfortunately, this was then replaced by a colleague who was very rude and unfriendly towards us. We ordered, among other things, the vegetarian Maultaschen and fried potatoes. The fried potatoes came with bacon, although this was not noted on the menu (online). The service staff “blamed” us for this because we hadn’t explicitly said that we were eating vegetarian. The “blame assignment” was done very stubbornly and repeatedly on her part. The service staff also behaved very unprofessionally and condescendingly at all of the tables next to us. In addition, the main components of our food seemed very familiar (from the refrigerated section of the supermarket). The price-performance ratio is outrageous. Really a shame.

Nice restaurant, delicious freshly prepared food Very nice service staff

Very nice restaurant, friendly staff and super delicious food

Quaint pub. Beer is perfectly tapped. Good home cooking.

Rustic restaurant with excellent cuisine and friendly service. Gimmik: QR codes at the table make it easier to order food and drinks.

Ottima soluzione nel centro del paese. Ambiente e frequentazione molto tipica. Scelta ampia. Buona qualità del cibo. Personale gentile. Se siete in zona, vale l'esperienza.

Good ambience, good music (radio station), good conditions, good beer. Nice time in the Ochsen.

We wanted to eat there and we were immediately told that the kitchen closes at 8 p.m. We were there at 7:15 p.m. We were placed in a side room that had a bowling alley bar feel, although there were still seats available in the very nice dining room at the front. Then they left. We were very disappointed.

Even though we were only in Wertheim Village for shopping, we were looking for a restaurant with home-style food because we didn't just want to eat fast food. So we followed the route to the Ochsen and found it well. Luckily there was a place available even without a reservation and we were able to pass the time with a well-functioning free WiFi. The ambience and menu are home-style and cozy. The goulash was like mother's, delicate and carefully prepared and served. The only point deducted for me is the ambience because a regular customer couldn't stop giving my wife clear looks 7th because the beer now costs 4.50. But I know the VAT...

Ein schönes Lokal mit Gutbürgerlicher Küche direkt am Marktplatz. Die Portionen sind ausreichend zu moderaten Preisen. Tolles Ambiente. Empfehlung 👍🏻

Sehr gutes Essen, Personal war sehr freundlich.

Gezellig, sfeervol restaurant met een uitstekende (Duitse) keuken, vriendelijke personeel. Een aanrader!
