Gilden Brauhaus in Köln

The food is super tasty, the portions are very large! I had the onion soup and the beans with bacon. Really great. The waitresses are very nice.

Great food, very nice attentive service, ambience just a bit modern. Thank you very much, that was a nice colleague meeting!

A quaint brewery with very good service.. Unfortunately a bit loud... But I think that's normal in houses like this.

Today we spontaneously went there for dinner with 6 people and our kids. We spontaneously had a craving for knuckle, which has always been very tasty. Today was a disaster. Unfortunately the knuckle was totally dry and inedible and the taste was simply not good. The coleslaw beforehand was also really not tasty this time. It was all like food had been warmed up somehow. It's a shame, we enjoyed eating here often. A good knuckle nearby. Unfortunately not good at all today. The waiter did ask at the end if everything was tasty, but I think he was a good host, noticed every now and then that the plates with the knuckle were still full and perhaps offered an alternative. Too bad. First of all, no more knuckles...

Always happy - whether in the summer on the terrace or now on December 31st. - fast, friendly service and good price-performance ratio

The place is somewhat inconveniently located, right on the Clevischer Ring, right behind the police station and next to a large hotel. The inside is based on an old Kölsch brewery. which on the one hand feels wrong to me, but also looks nice. The service is okay, a bit brisk, but also typical Kölsch. The food is Brauhaus food. There could be more vegetarian dishes such as a vegetarian schnitzel or burgers. Unfortunately, the classic vegetable pan is a bit boring for vegetarians, in my opinion

Very good food, steak not cheap but worth it

I can only warmly recommend the Gilden Brauhaus in Cologne Mülheim! Our visit was overall positive. The food was really tasty - the classic dishes tasted fresh and well prepared. We were particularly impressed by the Rhenish specialties and were perfectly seasoned. The service was extremely friendly and attentive. We felt welcome from the start and the service staff were always open to our requests. The waiting times were also pleasantly short, which we really appreciated, especially on a busy evening. The Gilden Brauhaus offers a great ambience that is both cozy and inviting. It is the ideal place for social evenings with friends or family. All in all it was a great experience and I will definitely come back.

Everything fantastic!!! Superlative food, good and tasty beer (but I must say that it is normal here in Cologne to find a good beer) and friendly and helpful staff. They even packaged up leftover food for us to take home so I could enjoy it while I'm writing this review. In short: if you happen to be in Cologne or the surrounding area you absolutely must come and eat here! (Kitchen open from 11.30am to late at night).

The food itself was good. We had the Jägerschnitzel, which came with a small salad as a starter. The waiter didn't seem to care. We were still eating the salad when the main course was already put on the table. The waitress didn't seem to care at all that we were still eating salad. In addition, the schnitzel wasn't really hot and some of the fried potatoes were fried too dark.

Hello! Together, we really enjoy coming here to eat and haven't fallen for it yet, super nice staff, and if you have a wish it will be implemented, great ambience and enough seating groups and not too loud, the prices are now from 7% to 19 % increased, and it's very busy at lunchtime, and the food is great! That's my and wife's opinion! But it's best to see if you all like it and wish you a good appetite, 🙏😉👌🍀☕🍨🍰 there's also something else! VG Heinz

By chance, today was New Year's Eve, I didn't have a reservation, but still got a nice table. Great service, very tasty steak and friendly service. Got two coffees on the house. Very satisfied and really recommended. We would love to come back.

Just great as always, I can only warmly recommend you get something for your money here and it's very friendly

Fantastic German food. Large portion size. Quick and friendly service. Highly recommend.

The food was very tasty, but the champions could be found in the sauce. As soon as we had the last fork in our mouths, the plates were cleared away before we could even swallow. That was disturbing. Went there again today. Food was very tasty again, service a little better than last time.

Food ok! Not special but price/performance is great! Service great.

Very good food at reasonable prices and friendly service

Great service, food always very satisfied, toilet area very clean, nice beer garden

Great brewery cuisine, nice, cozy atmosphere and friendly service. Was fun

Great building, it's a shame that in the end everything was just frozen goods. I would have promised more from a brewery

The food was very good👍 The atmosphere is great and the service is impeccable We'll be back😉

Delicious food with a large selection, friendly and service-oriented staff. The Kölsch glass doesn't stay empty in front of you for long. The only negative point: very loud (conversation at the table is hardly possible) and very crowded and cramped. Rather unsuitable for wheelchair users or people with a walker.

We ate here with our family (3 teenagers). We love the German atmosphere and cuisine. But upon entering the children were not impressed by the atmosphere. "It looks like a roadside restaurant." The food was also found mediocre. No wafer-thin schnitzels that we love so much. The staff, mainly men, work hard and do their best. The price remains German and fair. Actually the first time that we have not left a German restaurant completely satisfied. More of a tent for larger, mainly drinking groups.

Spectacular welcome and delicious food... we will absolutely return 👌

Excellent experience. Good food, quick and friendly service.

Good food, large portions (but there are also senior portions pay a visit. Thank you :-)

The Gilden Brauhaus is a real highlight for lovers of traditional Cologne brewery culture. Here, rustic coziness meets Cologne hospitality – a perfect combination for a successful visit. The menu offers a great selection of hearty, typically Rhenish dishes that are freshly prepared and with lots of taste. Particularly impressive is the freshly tapped Gilden Kölsch, which tastes even better in an authentic brewery atmosphere. The service is friendly, attentive and ensures that every guest feels completely comfortable. Whether for a sociable evening with friends or a hearty lunch: the Gilden Brauhaus is a real insider tip in Cologne!

We had a very tasty meal yesterday at lunchtime, there were four of us, super nice service, very polite, we would be happy to come back. The food was hot, tasted very good and a friendly waiter who was very attentive 👍

Great restaurant, very nice staff and great food. 👍👍👍

The food is really delicious. The service is great. Definitely recommended.

Delicious food, highly recommended

500 gram steak was delicious, friendly service and nice surroundings. In other words: Cheers!!!

Great place! They have really big portions, consider that one might serve two people before you order too much. Also great goulash soup. The service was very fast. The menu selection is also great. Highly recommended place.

Wir waren hier zu dritt an einem Samstagnachmittag und es war nicht besonders voll. Das Essen kam sehr schnell nach der Bestellung und war noch gut warm. Leider war es zu deutlich das mit zugekauften Produkten gearbeitet wurde, dies gilt für die Knödel zur Gans und ebenso die Sauce dazu. Das Schnitzel war ok, aber mehr auch nicht und die Gänsebrust zu trocken, ebenso die Keule. Fazit: wir werden hierher nicht mehr essen gehen, da der Eindruck doch zu negativ war.

Great schnitzel 👍👍👍👍 will be repeated

Absolutely recommended, fast service, top price performance! Very happy again!

A very nice restaurant where you can eat very well (excellent food) and where the staff doesn't make you wait long for your drinks. The kitchen also does things quickly, even though the restaurant was full, the food was quick. I can only recommend this brewery with a thumbs up

A good and beautiful location. The food is tasty and the waiters are friendly.

Super delicious food, beer🍺 and stuff like that

From the service to the food, the brewery is really top. An absolute recommendation from me! It's best to stop by on Schnitzel Day and order the Cordon Bleu! Large schnitzel with lots of vegetables and fries. Free mayo and ketchup included. The waiters are always very nice. Definitely nothing to complain about :)

Good morning. A top address, a visit is worth it. The staff are very friendly and despite the stress they still have a good saying to say. The food was great, so it's been a long time since I've had such a good gypsy schnitzel (I know, you can't say more, but I don't care). Actually too cheap for such good quality. You are welcome to take more from me. The only thing that was a bit annoying was the noise and the location in the store. (There was a shooting guild present). So if I have to go to Cologne again, I'll definitely stop by your place. Greetings from Münsterland.

We were there on a Saturday evening. The atmosphere is classic brewery, which we really like. It wasn't too loud, even though it was well attended. Service also very friendly. At the end there was also a schnapps on the house. There is actually one point deducted for the food. We had the sauerbraten and the knuckle. The sauerbraten was great! The knuckle is probably stored frozen because it was warm/hot on the outside and completely cold on the inside, so it went back again. What's unfortunate is that we then had to eat separately. But service responded well, the food came back warm and the portions were a bit larger. Conclusion: I can definitely recommend the restaurant. The cold food thing went stupid, but hopefully it won't be the norm :)

Good food and bier. German typical.

The best brewery I have visited to date. Congratulations

Best food huge portions all the best about this restaurant

It's my first time here. To say that I am delighted is an understatement. Definitely a place to come. Co-op service. The dishes are very tasty. The waiters are pleasant. Fantasy. Any recommendation.

Very nice brewery, super nice staff. Friendly and quick service. Great atmosphere. Food is very tasty and large portions. I can only recommend the brewery. If you like good food, the gilden brewery is the right place for you. Would love to come back. 👍🌟👍🌟💯% . It was the second time, unfortunately I had to say. Heaven and hell, unfortunately it's not a blast. Very soft and barely seasoned And the hackpeter is unfortunately very dry. Fried potatoes not crispy. Unfortunately I was very disappointed 😞

Absolutely recommended and not a tourist trap. Delicious food and super friendly staff.

The service and the ambience are great but I am extremely disappointed with the food. I got bagged dumplings and a completely dry goose leg. The sauces are very thin and remind me of the powder sauces that you can mix. My companions' food was no better. The fried potatoes have a raw aftertaste and the sliced ​​meat is also dry.

The two of us ate everything perfectly and were super full and satisfied... We would be happy to be here until Saturday. Ps fried potatoes are really great👍👍

Super tasty food, very attentive service, price performance perfectly fine. I would love to come back

The food was ok, the service was great. Unfortunately it was very, very loud.

Great food, fair prices and top service. The best and only way to eat out in the Stammheim and Flittard districts.

Amazing experience! Super quick, veery delicious and great service! Definitely will recommend and return once again 👍

Eat Mega would be happy to come again and is highly recommended

My whole family and we have been guests here since the beginning. The Gilden Brauhaus is a very nice place to forget about everyday life for a bit. The management and leadership is very good and the condition is friendly and fast. The toilets are very clean and are cleaned regularly. Top please keep it up 🏅 We highly recommend Gilden Brauhaus.

Great place!! the rumpsteak was amazing

Einmal aber nicht wieder. Essen nur befriedigend. Bratkartoffeln nicht knusprig. Hackepeter nur trocken und nicht gewürzt. Reklamationen werden nicht Ernst genommen .

We ate there often. It's always delicious. A seasonal menu is also offered. Top

Authentic Cologne restaurant, better than any tourist bar in the old town. Super tasty Rhenish sauerbraten and the dish of the day was also perfect! Mega nice staff, attentive and funny. Including dessert on the house🤩highly recommended away from the main tourist routes

A very good brewery with an excellent seasonal menu Delicious Very good Great atmosphere Large interior Attractive

Highly recommended! Very pleasant brewery atmosphere and good cuisine 👍🏻🔥 Super friendly service. They're really fast. Always happy 🤩

One of my favorite breweries in Cologne. Really good food. The service is super nice and not intrusive like at other Köbisse. Always my pleasure

Typical brewery. Unfortunately, the food was average. Fries were not cooked through, schnitzel from the deep fryer. Salad with brown spots and ready-made sauce. The service was very friendly and also wanted to have the fries fried. For almost 20 euros I can expect something different.

A great restaurant to spend a cozy evening with friends. Really great and attentive service, the food was really good and you can tell that the chefs (or cook 😉) know their craft and enjoy doing it. A funny idea is to have the menu in the form of a newspaper, which also provides information about the history and production of Cologne beer and the house brand.

Great food. Ambience a bit “cool”

Wir waren zu einem Geburtstag eingeladen und hier gegessen. Die Auswahl ist groß und die Preise akzeptabel. Bedienung sehr nett und die Gerichte sehr lecker. Man merkt, dass die Bratkartoffeln noch selbst gemacht werden, auch das Spiegelei. Das ist heute nicht mehr selbstverständlich, bei vielen vorgefertigten Speisen, die eigentlich nur warm gemacht werden. Hier nicht, hier werden die Gerichte noch wirklich gekocht, was man auch schmeckt, also sehr zu empfehlen.

Solid brewery food at reasonable prices. Fresh Kölsch in a cozy environment. Attentive service, what more could you want!

Always a pleasure! The staff is attentive and quick – what more could you want? Tip: It's best to reserve a table in advance and arrive by train.

The best brewery in Cologne! You can really eat anything here!

Very tasty food and friendly service. And the boss is just great.

Enjoy your meal. In the summer you can also go outside. There are not enough parking spaces available

Fast service, bad food in my opinion

So delicious! I had the pork knuckle, mashed potatoes and sauerkraut. Best food on my trip! The beer was great too!

Quaint restaurant. Friendly service and fair prices.

A quaint restaurant with delicious dishes. Good service. Gladly again!

Schnitzel Viennese style was ok, nothing special, fried potatoes partly burnt, and the vegetables cooked way too long. Radler was good, and the service was quick and friendly.

A preface: I have nothing to complain about! Everything was perfect here: service, ambience, food! The service was always friendly, very quick and courteous. The interior is in the style of a very cozy, rustic Cologne inn, I don't want to call it a "pub". I ate a rump steak Braumeister style (No. 42 on the menu from 07/2024) and haven't eaten something like that in ages. Many thanks to the team! Another note: The restaurant is run by a Croatian family and “Julischka” can be recommended as the house specialty when it comes to schnapps.

Nice, clean, friendly, delicious food and at the end there is a Julischka. The best thing is you are served 0.2 beer. Overall very satisfied.

Yes in any case. Very attentive employees, sometimes joking. Food with large portions and very tasty. The jecke schnitzel about 700g with fried potatoes and salad, crispy and well seasoned 28€. The steaks are prepared as requested. The rest of the map is also remarkable. So far I've always enjoyed it there and I eat here regularly. There are adjusted portions for children and seniors. Absolutely recommended

Unfriendly waiter. Wanted to pay, actually separately as I said, he comes with the EC device, throws it on the table, goes away, comes back and takes it with him again. Took forever to pay.

We always go to Gilden when we are in Cologne. The food is consistently excellent, the service is quick and very friendly. Somehow you always feel so welcome.

Gilden Brauhaus is een aanrader voor iedereen die op zoek is naar een typisch Duitse eetervaring. Het restaurant bevindt zich buiten het centrum van Keulen, aan een doorgaande weg, en is goed bereikbaar met de auto. Bovendien zijn er voldoende gratis parkeerplaatsen beschikbaar, wat altijd een pluspunt is. Het restaurant is gevestigd in een modern gebouw, maar zodra je binnenstapt, word je verwelkomd door een gezellige, 'gemütliche' sfeer. De inrichting straalt typisch Duitse charme uit, wat bijdraagt aan de algehele ervaring. De menukaart is ruim en biedt voor ieder wat wils. Het eten is van goede kwaliteit en de prijzen zijn schappelijk, wat het een uitstekende keuze maakt voor zowel een snelle hap als een uitgebreid diner. Het grote terras is perfect voor zonnige dagen, waar je kunt genieten van je maaltijd in de buitenlucht. Wat echt opvalt bij Gilden Brauhaus is de vriendelijke bediening. Het personeel is attent en zorgt ervoor dat je je meteen thuis voelt. Dit, gecombineerd met het heerlijke eten en de gezellige sfeer, maakt het een plek waar je graag terugkomt. Wij zijn zeer tevreden met ons bezoek aan Gilden Brauhaus en kunnen het iedereen aanraden die in de buurt van Keulen is!

Waiting time: short❗ Food: hearty, plentiful, great. As an extra bonus there was a surprise little ice cream dessert! Service: friendly, attentive, humorous. We can recommend the restaurant ❗😊❗😊

Were 3 days in the hotel next door and never went to eat differently in the evening, didn't want to try anything else. Very nice and friendly staff, the boss himself asks about the well -being of his guests. Food very good, fair prices. Very pleasant atmosphere. Absolutely recommended and would happily come back!!

We have rarely experienced such a well-run restaurant. Starting with the nice and courteous service, through to the good food Right up to the unbeatable price-performance ratio. Our 3 underage children were also treated like guests, and at the end we each received an ice cream 🍦 and a lollipop at the house's expense. When we are back in Cologne/Mühlheim we will definitely come back. Simply great

Very friendly. Large and tasty portions. You can also sit outside. Always my pleasure ! I can warmly recommend it to everyone 😀

Our regular restaurant for years. Good food at fair prices. Always a pleasure to be here

I come here quite often and so far I have always been very satisfied. But today (September 5th) we were not satisfied. The service outside (to the right of the door) was terrible. We often had to ask for beer inside even though nothing was overcrowded. And for one of us, the hunter's sauce was watery and there was no response to the complaint. And in the end, despite a generous bill and a good tip, there was no schnapps on the house as usual.

Delicious, beautiful, friendly - the onion soup is a must!!! It's just so delicious... Of course, it's prepared correctly: let the onion caramelize, let it simmer longer and, of course, bake it on the toaster on top with lots of cheese. The cordon bleu was also delicious and packed full of cheese.

Everything was TOP!!Friendly staff, good quality and good portions! Gladly again!!

Nice brewery very good service. Most of the dishes are rather hearty, but there are also light salads and starters for small appetites. The food was delicious and plentiful. We'd love to come back.

Kölsch and meals taste very good. The selection is extensive for a brewery. Waiting time for service and the food ordered was very short.

Unfortunately, or thank God, it is outside and is therefore not overcrowded. Here everything happens with the necessary calm and serenity!

The service is super friendly, attentive and fast. The food was fantastic. Very tasty and hot. The portions are just right. If we lived nearby, we would be there more often. Absolute recommendation. It is very accessible. Parking spaces are directly nearby. The toilet was clean. The goulash soup is highly recommended. The Cordon Blue was huge and delicious. The men's toast was also very good. At the end there was even a little schnapps for digestion. Not every inn does this anymore.

We were four Asians and the service towards us was a disaster. We weren't greeted properly, weren't even paid attention to when we wanted to order, pay, etc. We weren't looked in the eye and were mostly ignored. Completely rude and incompetent behavior. I haven't seen anything so racist in a long time. Just because we weren't old and white doesn't mean we have to be treated differently!

On Saturday evening we had dinner with 4 people at the Gilden Brauhaus and were thrilled by the very good cuisine, the friendly service and the nice ambience. Our Köbe's recommendation for food (twice fish with chanterelles was an unusual and delicious recommendation) and wine with low acidity (also available in the brewery 😉) was excellent. We were definitely not there for the last time. Thanks for the lovely evening!

A bit off the beaten paths but very nice service, cheap home brewed kölsch which turned out to be delicious, and more than ok food

Hearty food at reasonable prices in this quaint brewery. Perfect for guests of the Best Plaza Hotel right next door and for fans of hearty cuisine. Schnitzel, knuckles, but also classic Cologne specialties. Very fast and attentive service. You can't go wrong here!

Unfortunately very unfriendly basement!
