Geleitschenke in Weimar

Best roulade I've eaten so far.

The tavern is located in the center of Weimar. The atmosphere in the guest room is very rustic, just right for spending a cozy evening with friends.

Great location, very nice and friendly staff. Very good restaurant. The rooms correspond to the character of the house and exude a lot of charm. We felt very comfortable.

Very nice old building, also well furnished inside. The chairs become uncomfortable after sitting for a long time. We were a group of 20 people. The food took over an hour to arrive, it tasted good but it was only lukewarm. For 2 people the food was cold. The first drink arrived quickly but then there was a 40 minute wait.

“Certainly enough for seniors or children’s plates, but definitely not enough for adults.” The two of us had dinner here. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was pleasant. The food was generally okay, but unfortunately the portion was too small. I had the roulade and was disappointed that only a dumpling was served - there were few side dishes. For the price and the type of dish I would have liked a larger portion. I also noted this on site. Overall, the taste was good, but the ratio of price to portion size wasn't right in my opinion.

Definitely worth a visit. Tasty and good service

We were greeted very rudely by the young German blonde who didn't want to or couldn't speak English (name unknown unfortunately) even though we announced our arrival by phone. We felt forced upon us and didn't really feel welcome. Drinks order was placed and we actually wanted to order food at the same time but we had no chance of doing that, “I’ll order drinks first and then food”! When drinks were brought we were already thinking about ordering food somewhere else and we said we needed a moment to order the food. The blonde simply took the menus away. Only when spoken to did they say “I’ll leave a menu” (there were 4 of us) Then it was clear to us that we didn't feel comfortable here. Prices were quite steep considering the service.

Sufficiently large portions. The roulade was good, the schnitzel was ok. The fkank steak was raw and tough. The staff was difficult to get. Despite the fact that we ordered well before most visitors arrived, we waited 60 minutes for our food. Service was rather mediocre.

Avoid restaurant. Mini meat ration at a proud price!

Unfortunately it cannot be compared with the previous Schwarzbier house...

Traditional house with changing names. Old walls with class. Adapts to the price ratio of the city center. You don't have to...

We received a very friendly welcome, nice service 🙂. The food was very tasty 😋, we ate beef roulade, red cabbage and a very good Thuringian dumpling. Kind regards to the chef!

Had a study group meeting for alumni last night on October 26th, 2024. It was a wonderful evening, first-class service and, above all, the cuisine, simply delicious. We can definitely recommend the shovel, it really couldn't be better. All good wishes, see you again soon.

You were warmly welcomed and the service was very nice. The food was fabulous and so was the selection of drinks.

A shot in the oven! One can only warn! Went to the restaurant as a group. As a starter, seasoned meat that was far too dry. For the main course, a "tender pink" fried steak that was not yet cooked through. The roulade - on all the plates - was tough and filled with an indefinable cream. We immediately thought of the seasoned meat again. As a tip to the kitchen, in which Original Thuringian roulade, that's how it's sold there, includes cucumber, onion, bacon and mustard. The service also only responded to the list of defects with a nod, something else wasn't. And it wasn't that cheap either, it would have been fine too. if it had fit.

The menu was very manageable, the prices were extremely high, some of the food was served lukewarm 👎Only the service was very commendable.

We didn't have a reservation, but the waitress suggested a table that wasn't needed for another hour and adjusted the service to the time slot

Delicious food with a clear menu. I just couldn't find a dessert for myself 😉.

We were there for a three-day conference and were very satisfied. The service was excellent and the staff always gave 100%.

Cozy, tasty and friendly staff, great

We had a very tasty dinner. We were served promptly and, given that there was a theater performance we wanted to attend, the food came very quickly. Price/performance fits.

Rustic, delicious / Highly recommended! Quaint restaurant in the middle of Weimar, which is full to the last table, especially on weekends. Maybe reserve online here. Friendly, courteous service. The food is regional, typically Thuringian and very tasty. Prices are also reasonable for Weimar. We'll be back

Very tasty food. A little quieter and cozy through the yard. We can't judge the hotel.

We were very satisfied. Service was friendly and quick even though we were a large group. The food was very tasty.

Very good food, friendly service.

We weren't entirely happy with our food.

Went to the restaurant for lunch today, the food was very tasty Schäufele, Service very friendly and attentive

We Italians often play the part of the "super-gifted" when it comes to cooking and, I don't deny, we too have succumbed to this role. Tonight, however, we remained pleasantly trapped in the network of good quality and highly traditional Teutonic cuisine. This "pub with elegance" restaurant, as the menu title says, was our Charon on the sea of ​​humility and great respect. The dishes are difficult to describe exactly not knowing German and relying on g.lens but, in summary, it is: a dish composed of a slice of stuffed roll, red cabbage and currants, with dumplings and a brown base of the same roast, the other dish with a slice of roast pork marinated and cooked in beer, with cumin, horseradish, mashed potatoes and sauerkraut. Surely I forgot something and I didn't really identify much but I know for sure that they were both divine. Excellent beer and, as always in Thuringia, light and not very carbonated. The desserts were a discovery of innovation and creativity: pumpkin mousse with salted peanut cream and white chocolate, chocolate cake with cream and sour milk cream. Liqueurs close: you can find them in the photo on the menu marked in red. Two particular spirits, a beer grappa and a rye spirit, both worth trying, the first truly exquisite. The bill is in the photo, I would say proportionate. Have a nice dinner!!

The food was great... regional, of course. Thuringian dumplings and roulade - tender and super tasty.

Very friendly and attentive service. Food very tasty. I would love to go there again.

Super nice staff and very tasty food 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

There is an ancient house in the middle of Weimar. A treasure! It accommodates me with a great bed, bathroom and a door height of 1.70m. A wooden floor... the ambience, great. The food is amazing. Schäufele...it's been ages since I saw something like this on a menu. A poem. Served by friendly staff in the historic taproom with homemade beer (Watzdorfer). At the time of my overnight stay there were seven (7) different varieties. I've tried almost all of them and will definitely have to come back. A full recommendation from the bottom of my heart. Update: I found another picture of the room!

A beautiful house, perfectly located and tastefully decorated. To the kitchen: Regional products, processed at the highest level - the preparation is the purest feast for the eyes, In my opinion it is now an integral part of the map of good taste in Weimar. The only point of criticism is the service staff. There is still room for improvement here. Disorganized...but trying hard.

Service great, beer delicious, food solid, waiting time underground. Plus, the food came before the drink.

A fantastic traditional Thüringen restaurant, tucked away in the centre of old Weimar. Plenty of seating inside and out and plenty of room for larger families and groups. The building has a stunning exterior with the old wooden framework and this is continued inside. The interior, the service and naturally the food were of highest merit and we would definitely go again. Everybody commented how good the food was, and there were no empty plates at the end! If you're in Weimar and want a special place to enjoy the finest local cuisine, then you can't go wrong here!

Delicious food and delicious beer 🍺 Simply great!

Rarely have we had such good German chefs as here in the Watzendorfer Geleitschenke! Great, everything freshly prepared, decorated with cress, portions are large and of top quality. We were there with the family and two boys and everyone was totally satisfied and would come back at any time.

My mom and I wanted to have dinner and were looking forward to it, but the menu online isn't up to date at all. Unfortunately only one vegetarian dish... Because of that we left again. But the young girl welcomed us nicely :)

Probably like everywhere there is a lack of staff. Restaurant was 3/4 full but we had to wait 1 hour for the food. Food super tasty. Service super friendly. After 1 hour it turns out that of the 4 orders only 3 made it to the kitchen. Again: the seating is very nice and the people are very friendly. Maybe good things take time?

There was clearly room for improvement! On our first evening in the beautiful cultural city, our loved one was in the mood for down-to-earth tavern cuisine. The restaurant we were aiming for was unexpectedly closed on Sunday evening and so we ended up right next door in the Geleitschenke, or rather in front of it in the spacious outdoor area. Unfortunately the food wasn't convincing: Braumeister schnitzel with “golden yellow” fried potatoes and braised onions - schnitzel okay, the “fried potatoes” warmed rather than fried Sauerbraten with pearl onions, red cabbage and Thuringian dumpling in breadcrumbs - that was an overly sour affair, the meat was tender, the sauce (soup) unfortunately very thin and overly acidic The service staff was open-minded, friendly and attentive; requests for additional drinks were requested several times. My criticism during the meal about the sauerbraten was accepted, but the only reaction was to say that they wanted to inform the kitchen. Apparently I wasn't the only guest who didn't find the sour soup so tingling that day. The cook may have used far too much pickling. Another guest even had a spoon brought to him. I'm not familiar with sauerbraten and the red cabbage was pretty inconsequential for me and tasted unremarkable. Edible, but not exactly enjoyable. A pity! We had much better pub food, maybe we didn't have the best day. Complaint management can be expanded!

Our first visit to the restaurant was a delight; The food was not only extremely tasty, but also artfully prepared

On the recommendation of a local, we specifically looked for the Watzendorfer Geleitschenke! When we got there we were pleasantly surprised by the location! We didn't need any rooms because we were accommodated elsewhere. Food = taste really great for us, only the temperature (lukewarm) of the food was borderline, which we also stated. Price = normal for a tourist stronghold Beer = lllleeeccckkkeeerrr Ambiance = great Cleanliness = Good Service = quick, nice, attentive!

Very good food, well located in the middle of the city and still pleasantly quiet

Service very friendly and accommodating The food is simply delicious and the Watzdorfer beer also tastes excellent.

Not far from the center. Still a bit remote next to a steakhouse. Half-timbered house with a small outdoor area. Planting hardly possible.

We had dinner with 9 people. The food was served quite quickly. Some had the juicy honey kassler with green beans and sweet potato puree, the sauerbraten, the beef roulades, the braised beef caldron and trout. With the Honigkassler there was 1 small piece of meat a few beans and the puree was thin and not like puree should be. We thought there would be something more to come, but unfortunately it was all on the plate. The taste was good but the portions were small. Food was also only lukewarm. Not reasonably priced. Doesn't fit the ambience of a pub either. Trout had a funny smell but was OK. Beef wade and roulade were again sufficient and tasty. Unfortunately we didn't complain until late because we were hungry. Of course it wasn't okay either, but it's better to say something at all. The waiter wanted to take our drinks, but according to the boss he didn't because we had already eaten. But we didn't want to do that, we just wanted to give our feedback for the next time in order to make it better if necessary.

Ate fish soup today, only got rid of the top, hardly any fish on the plate, the taste could be better, roulades were hard, red cabbage wasn't seasoned, waiters were nice, couldn't change anything about the food or the payment, it's better to take a closer look at whether you want to eat here

Roulade was just "okay", unfortunately only with a dumpling, for that almost €24 is definitely too much, even if the plate was overflowing with sauce... it was filled with an indefinable cream (mustard?), nothing more. The employees were so friendly. The food came within a few minutes, so I can't assume that it was freshly prepared, just warmed up.

Nice service staff but waited a long time for our food. Small portion, lukewarm and overpriced. Disappointment!

There is no trace of the quality of the Köstritzer Schwarbierhaus anymore. Waited 45 minutes for a starter (only seasoned meat) and well over 1 hour for the main course. Waiter totally overwhelmed with the service. Will give the restaurant a wide berth in the future. Price and quantity of food very inadequate (fish too salty) If nothing changes, it is no longer recommended.

Pure disappointment! Reserved at 6:30 p.m. and the starter was served after 2 hours. After 3 hours we are still waiting for the main courses…

We booked for one night and the room was large. The ambience is very good considering its age. The service was nice, even if everything was a little chaotic.

Great restaurant with high quality dishes and very courteous and friendly staff. There is also an extremely good selection of beers from our own brewery.

Very cozy restaurant in the center

We only went for dinner, not an overnight stay. The service was very nice and attentive. Ambiance is very nice. The food was very tasty, even if one meal (asparagus with potatoes) wasn't quite that hot, it was promptly made hot according to our advice and made up for it with a small, free beer. Responded very well. We will definitely come back again. By the way, Watzdorfer Hell is also highly recommended.

The review only refers to the restaurant: The friendly staff who were on duty during our visit should be praised. Everything else, well... The roast dishes on offer (roulade and sauerbraten) have absolutely nothing to do with good Thuringian cuisine. Anyone who doesn't know it will certainly be satisfied with it, but anyone who has only eaten once in a really good Thuringian inn will be disappointed. As a native of Oberweißbach, I can only say that the “Oberweißbacher Roulade” on offer has nothing to do with what is usual here. The fact that the good meat is sourced from there is worthy of all honor and is also the only thing that connects this dish with Oberweißbach. Good Thuringian cuisine, of which we are rightly proud, unfortunately works differently. But it's probably true again: it's enough for unsuspecting tourists.

After 1:45 hours of staying, we finally received our main course. This doesn't seem to be a problem for the service staff.

From ordering to the first starter (only 1 starter was ordered) we had to wait 1 hour and 15 minutes. 20 minutes later we had the main course. We got the Braumeister Schnitzel twice. The breading was thicker than the schnitzel itself. I would estimate that the meat was less than 2 mm thick. We should pay around 24 euros for the schnitzel and a few fried potatoes. After I explained to the waiter (very friendly by the way) that it seemed too expensive to me, he wanted to clarify this with the chef. The waiter wanted to waive the two schnitzels for us, but the chef didn't see this because we had eaten one schnitzel and so only had one returned. We told him that we had to wait 1 hour and 35 minutes for food and that the children (9 and 13) were also hungry and were therefore more or less forced to eat something. Unfortunately the chef was unreasonable. The waiter gave us some of the drinks off his own initiative. As I said, the waiter was very friendly and helpful but the rest, no thanks. We had booked the table for 7 p.m. We were there at 7 p.m. and it wasn't overly crowded.

Super delicious food, very friendly staff. And to top it all off, you definitely have to try the great spagel ice cream.

The asparagus ice cream is amazing

Hello! The asparagus gelato tastes fantastic! Kind regards to Justin, who served us brilliantly all evening!

We were very enthusiastic about the food. The hearty cuisine is highly recommended, and high praise also goes to the courteous service

In the middle of beautiful Weimar, great food and phenomenal service!

Fantastically good food, excellent advice Highly recommended!!!

I would like to give it 6 stars if that were possible

A quaint restaurant in a historic building. Very friendly and attentive service. We had Braumeister Schnitzel and braised beef calf, both excellently prepared, very tasty and attractively served. High price level. Highly recommended!

Great restaurant. Very good cuisine, courteous service. Prices are reasonable.

Delicious food, friendly service. What more could you want?

Great service, great food is highly recommended……

Great restaurant with regional specialties. Everything from regional cuisine which justifies the price of the food. Great ambience and friendly service

Just great. Pure enjoyment served by very nice staff

Impossible choice of seat, you have to be careful not to fall backwards with the chair down a step. The food is overpriced and not of good quality. Many years ago people enjoyed going to the Escort Tavern to eat, but now it was probably the last time. Therefore only one star.

We were in the restaurant. Food is good, service is very different, sometimes brusque, sometimes very attentive, all in all it's fine

Good upscale regional cuisine. However, the portion was too small for me. I found the price a bit too expensive for that.

The hotel is centrally located. Rooms, bathroom clean and good. The food was extremely tasty, the breakfast was plentiful and lovingly prepared. The service was just great. Very friendly and helpful staff. We are happy to recommend it

This was our second time dining in this restaurant. The first time there was boeuf stroganoff, the meat was tough and not edible, it was returned and the meat was swapped. On the second visit there was Watzdorfer Braumeister Schnitzel. For 23.90 euros you don't just expect breading with fried small potatoes and half a teaspoon of sprouts. The meat was so thin it bordered on art. I skipped the onions for health reasons. Such a poorly and carelessly prepared plate....isn't possible.....never again! The staff was also totally stressed and irritable.

Quite ok in itself. We had made a reservation that day and unfortunately we couldn't really get noticed... had problems with the internet... had cramped seats. The food didn't blow us all away that much. Except the wild salmon was really tasty. There was no proper signage for the dishes... Yes, it was okay. The service was very accommodating.

Very friendly service, delicious food and a relaxed evening. Thank you very much for that. If the weather is right, you can sit outside very well.

Nice inn... well-intentioned advice to the operators... at times when the inn is only sparsely staffed... it would be great if the staff were also friendly to the customers who "just" want a drink.. ..so I can't say anything about the food....the homemade lemonades could have a little more pizzazz

Great food, roulade at its best, beer top notch The hard-working young staff is pleasing.

The shortage of skilled workers is also noticeable here. When it was still the Köstritzer Schwarzbierhaus it felt better. Update 2024 Restaurant The food is high quality. The same applies to price developments. Soup 8 euros is already borderline. It is questionable for me whether a dessert has to cost 10 euros. To do this, make it so big that it would be enough for two. Well, you can sell that way too. In general we were served very nicely and well. So conclusion, you can do it.

Company event. Great congress areas, top organization, great location, very good food and a great wellness area.

Very tasty food at a still acceptable price

Restaurant rating We went to the family Easter brunch today Super delicious food, very nice, friendly and attentive staff We would love to come back

Rustic hostel with restaurant. Rooms simple, but perfectly adequate for a few nights. Very close to the center. The breakfast was lovingly prepared. We ate in the restaurant several times and were always very satisfied. The service throughout the hotel is exceptionally good.

Beautifully located inn on the edge of Weimar's old town. We were greeted warmly and friendly by the staff and escorted to the table we had reserved. The food menu is clear, but there is certainly something for everyone. I had the beef roulade and it was to die for. We enjoyed our stay and recommend the restaurant.

We were here for dinner. Great old half-timbered house with a cozy restaurant. Delicious Watzdorf beer on tap. The food was also very good and plentiful. The service was friendly and accommodating. We'll definitely come back 👍

Very friendly and attentive staff. Food very tasty and perfect. The Kassler was a treat. We'd love to come back

Delicious food and nice staff...

Excellent experience of traditional house with modern facilities. But the printed paintings in the room could have better taste. Weimar has such rich history resources and there are countless great fine arts in Goethe's Museum, what a pity.

Ein wunderschönes Fachwerkhaus. Mitten in der Altstadt von Weimar. Zwischen Herderplatz und Schillerstraße. Unübertroffenes Ambiente. Super gutes Watzdorfer Bier und grotten schlechtes Essen. Tut mir leid. Meinen Gänsebraten und den meiner Frau haben wir zurück gehen lassen. Schade dass dafür Tiere sterben mussten. Die Bedienung war wirklich sehr freundlich. Mit dem Koch hätt ich gern mal geredet. Schade , kommt nach Watzdorf in unseren Schalander . Liebe Grüße aus dem Rinnetal. 🌲💚🌲🍺🦊😘

Leckeres Essen und Bier, natürlich auch alle anderen Dinge...Gasthausatmosphäre, sehr nett. Auch die Braukunst der Watzdorfer ist nicht zu verachten.

Bier 5 ⭐️ Essen 5 ⭐️ Bedienung 5⭐️ Ambiente 5 ⭐️ Wenn wir mal wieder in Weimar sind kommen wir aufjeden Fall wieder vorbei! Macht weiter so ! Durch und durch zufrieden

Aber Hallo, was für ein toller Service!!!! Nach meiner Bewertung wurde mir die Parkplatzgebühr erlassen und zurück überwiesen. Vielen Dank dafür. Kann dieses Hotel jetzt extremst empfehlen, denn wenn was schief läuft, wird reagiert. Mega so finde ich das riesig. Bitte weiter so, ich komme jetzt gerne wieder und werde Euch weiterempfehlen. Danke für das bearbeiten.

Super Service, sehr sehr freundlich.

Super Personal, Essen 1A, Zimmer sehr sauber. Da dieses Haus sehr alt ist, muss man einfach an seine eigene Körpergröße denken:-)

essen war mies gewürzt und Bedienung sehr unhöflich, hast ewig auf dein Essen warten müssen

Das Essen ist sehr köstlich, die Bedienung sehr freundlich! Volle Empfehlung!!!

Haben nur dort gegessen. Gutes Essen, lecker Bier und supernette Bedienung.

Waren zum Essen da Ambiente ist in Ordnung, Bedienung war ok. Essen kann ich nicht beurteilen, da es leider lauwarm an den Platz kam. Sehr schade
