Gemeinschaftshaus Biene/Holthausen (Reinhold Hermes) in Lingen (Ems)

Today, on Mother's Day, we were looking forward to the asparagus buffet. The welcome was friendly, and the waiter was also very keen to move us to another seat, as it was getting very warm inside by the window, which was directly exposed to the sun. We finally decided to sit outside, which was a better choice. The first appetizers, such as the asparagus soup and antipasti, were promising. But when we turned to the asparagus, we were unfortunately very disappointed. Neither the white nor the green asparagus was edible – both were far too firm and crunchy, which shouldn't be the case with asparagus. Furthermore, some of the asparagus wasn't fully peeled, making it even harder in places. Even the tips of the white asparagus were extremely firm, which spoiled our appetite. For a buffet in this price range, we would have expected the asparagus to at least be properly cooked. Even though the waitress responded very kindly to our complaint and offered us a drink, we lost the desire to linger, so we left early. It's a shame because we were really looking forward to a nice meal.

We will come back, it was closed on Monday, heard very good stories that you can eat delicious vegetarian food, what a beautiful place, looks very cozy

The Bulldog is quite conveniently located. The train station and the city center can be reached quickly on foot. There are no parking spaces nearby. Mainly burgers are offered. But there are still alternatives (ribs, stew, salad and vegetarian dishes). The order was taken quickly. After a short time the drinks and food were served. The portions are decent. It was delicious. Price wise it was ok too. Overall it was really good. I felt comfortable here. Gladly again.👍

Nice German inn. Food tastes very good and the service is great.

Always happy to experience celebrations there!!! The staff deserves special mention!!! Very attentive and friendly!!!!
