GlückundSeligkeit in Bielefeld

Restaurant built in a cathedral It has a wonderful atmosphere as it preserves the structure of the cathedral. Special cut steak highly recommended, desserts are also great The water bottle is also stylish.

The ambience is great. The food was a bit poor and the service wasn't convincing either. Even when it was addressed, it didn't get any better. Salmon wasn't cooked through, pizza was past the oven. You were much more convincing in the past.

What an ambience, what food, what drinks! Simply outstanding! Thanks for the lovely evening!

A very nice location, just something different. Especially in the evening you can enjoy the beautiful lights. The service, when it was there, was very friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately we had to wait 25 minutes before we were served. Unfortunately we didn't get the desserts at the same time, when my partner was finished with his desserts I only received my desserts. About the food: it was very nicely prepared. It tasted good but it was nothing special and average.

Nice atmosphere, very tasty food, very good service

Absolutely not recommended. When we came in I said that we hadn't made a reservation and asked if there was a table for three available. The answer to that: Yes, you also look as if you are there spontaneously. Food wasn't good! The waitress was rude and the bill was €89.90. I gave the waitress €100 and he took the money and walked away and said “Happy Sunday” without giving me my change. Absolute impudence!

A really great experience. Food, service and ambience really worth it. Always happy 🥰

From A to Z everything was great. The staff is very attentive and professional. The food was served very elegantly and tasted just as good. The ambience is simply comfortable. In any case, we would love to come back.

October 17, 2024: Great location for 20 years with a great ambience and upscale prices. Very friendly service and delicious food on an even 'larger' menu. Parking directly at the location is possible at certain times; You can also celebrate well here. Gladly again

Thank you for this great evening, Service was great, they made an effort and were great today!

Of course it's a very cool atmosphere. Everything fits so far. Personally, the prices are a bit too high for what is on offer.

The starter was delicious but unfortunately my main course was not as described. I had the lucky bowl, the red cabbage was spicy and the dressing overall only tasted like vinegar. The best were the falafel, but there were only two of them. The table was very small, between 3 other small tables and the wall. The service was very friendly but if I have to wait 2.5 hours for my main course, which doesn't do justice to the price-performance ratio at all, that's a reason for me not to come back again

We were in the restaurant a while ago and wanted to do it again because last time it was quite tasty, but above all the ambience was fantastic. The ambience is still great. Unfortunately, this time was just disappointing. The food just didn't taste like anything. Whether fish, pasta or pizza - almost or more than half of each one was left over... One of them got severe stomach cramps after eating the New Zealand steak with potato gratin. The evening was simply disappointing for all of us. Maybe ok for photos on social networks, but unfortunately the food is not excellent. Just a shame.

Very long waiting time (over 2 hours), waiter was of the opinion that a waiting time of up to 2 hours would be okay and wanted to explain how things work in the restaurant (I've never experienced anything like that), it's the last time I've been here!

Table reserved for 8 a.m. At 10:30 still no food. The waiter's many apologies no longer help.

Service staff OK! Very long waiting time between ordering and being served at the table.

We ate at this restaurant with a group on October 11th, 2024. The ambience was very nice. The food and drinks were overpriced and not particularly good. The service still has a lot of room for improvement. Wrong dishes were brought and billed incorrectly, without a word of apology! That wasn't nice and very disappointing in this atmosphere.

The ambience is simply brilliant and packed to capacity on a Tuesday. In my opinion the price-performance ratio is not right. Paying over 18 euros for a small pizza is borderline

The ambience (old church) has a lot of potential, unfortunately the prices and quality are far from it. A pizza for €20 that isn't cooked through and doesn't taste good doesn't fit in there.

Wir waren gestern dort zum Abendessen. Das Ambiente in der umgebauten Kirche ist grandios und hat mir einfach nur gefallen. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist m.E. grenzwertig. Ich hatte Pizza Italia mit Schinken, Rucola, Mozzarella und Tomaten für 18,50 Euro, war eher eine kleine Pizza, daher hatte mich der Preis schon sehr irritiert. Mit dem stumpfen Messer hatte ich extreme Probleme, die Pizza zu schneiden, was nicht einfach war. Hab ich der Servicekraft auch gesagt. Die Gerichte meiner Freunde fand ich auch sehr teuer.

Exceptional ambience. Great food and very friendly staff.

Das Ambiente ist sehr ansprechend. Das Essen war sehr lecker. Der Service war gut. Die Wartezeiten waren extrem lang. Auf die Vorspeise haben wir 60 Minuten gewartet. Weitere 90 Minuten vergingen bis zur Hauptspeise

Service sehr gut. Leider war das Essen nicht so lecker. Meine Freundin hat mehrere Male erwähnt bitte keine Zwiebel. Bekam leider das Essen mit Zwiebeln. Ich war leider von dem Essen sehr enttäuscht. Bei der Location und den Preisen habe ich was anderes erwartet (geschmacklich). Aber die Location ist wunderschön.

Great food and great staff. The overall package was worth every penny and I would order the same thing again.

Great location, food is great. The service staff are friendly and attentive and the restaurant impresses with its stylish design.

Had a company party there. Very nice atmosphere Very good service ***** Very good food. We'd love to come back

Tasty..Nice.. Great service ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐+🌟

A very special restaurant. The location and history of the church are particularly impressive and you don't see it every day. A visit is highly recommended, even if the high prices can be intimidating

Just class. The ambience in the old church is simply great. The food was incredibly good and the service matched the high level. Very nice, obviously trained professionals. Unfortunately we are not in Bielefeld that often. Absolute recommendation 👍👍👍👍👍

Extravagant ambience with excellent service ✨ The food was outstanding! I'll definitely and happily come back here, the evening was more than successful 🙏😋☺️✨ 5✨✨✨✨✨plus!!!

The price of the food was a bit high but it tasted very good. The top experience was the service. As a group we had very attentive service staff. Thank you for a very nice evening.

Good food and pleasant atmosphere. Young staff, some of whom have little experience.

Outstanding ambience with a very varied menu. The service was very attentive. Clear recommendation

Nice atmosphere, nice service, clean, food very tasty... You are also welcome with a dog, unfortunately we cannot give more than five stars 🤗👍

Here, too, I'll say it up front: I very rarely give five stars. A good to very good experience is a 4 for me However, my experiences were exceeded here: the food and drinks were all good to very good. For example, I had the ox cheeks in the main course and I have only had them prepared so well by my previous chef. Only with the still good Chicken Marsala would I recommend leaving this area to a typical local restaurant with authentic cuisine. The strengths in happiness and bliss lie more in European cuisine. The carpaccio, on the other hand, was really delicious! What I particularly enjoyed was the service: From the greeting to the advice to the farewell, we were looked after in a friendly, attentive, reserved manner and yet with a relaxed composure. What is particularly noteworthy here (there were 5 of us with our 2-month-old son and our 4.5-year-old daughter) was that the children's needs were taken care of first. When we noticed that our daughter was getting restless between the adult courses, we asked if we had already discovered the play area (well equipped) in the old sacristy. When the main course was served, they came to us and informed us. This ran like a common thread throughout the entire evening. Our daughter was asked again and again about her wishes and recommendations were made. So it was a very relaxing 3 hours for everyone, which we were all able to enjoy to the fullest. A big thank you for that! We would love to come back.

A great place for a meeting. Tasty dishes, nice atmosphere, good wine. The perfect place to find a cool place on hot days. I recommend.

Interesting location, but catastrophic service. We sat at the back in the beautiful "garden" and the waitress completely lost sight of us.

One of the coolest locations I have ever been to. The old church turned into a restaurant, which is completely mind blowing. The ambience & the vibe is really nice out there with their service people being very friendly and really attentive. Enough space, nice food and friendly service.. Highly recommended.

This is simply an amazing location and the food was also really good

Delicious food, nice beer garden and playground. The prices are high, recommended for good occasions, but unfortunately you won't become a regular guest. The 23€ for a pizza is already steep.

The food was great, the service was courteous, they clearly looked after us. We had a very nice evening, thank you very much.

Super Location und super hergerichtestes Essen 1A. Und danke an die tollen Service Team und Küche. Unsere Bekannten aus Wien fanden es sehr schön bei euch. LG Simon Dörr

The four of us spent a wonderful evening and came especially from Paderborn. It was definitely worth the trip. The service was quick, extremely friendly and authentic. The cuisine offers a fascinating fusion of Asian, European and Argentinian influences. We really enjoyed it - we'll definitely be back!

The converted church is a great impression and offers a nice ambience. The outdoor area is also very nice with different areas and also very child-friendly, nice playground where you can run around. For food we had the Cantonese duck and tikka masala, I thought it was perfect. It was on point and the portion size is absolutely fine. For me the menu was so interesting, both drinks (limo passion fruit with rose pepper) and the food, that I will definitely come by more often. The boss herself also asks every now and then whether everything is OK, which is unfortunately no longer so common in other restaurants. All in all great 👍🏻

Good food in a special place: happiness and bliss can be found in a former church. There is also an outdoor area. Great place, good food, friendly staff.

Unfortunately, it has decreased significantly: We have been regular guests there since 2021. Unfortunately, over time we realized that this restaurant has declined significantly over the years. The portion size of many dishes has shrunk significantly, can no longer maintain the quality of the time and at the same time the price has risen significantly. While you used to get 16 slices of fresh carpaccio with a good portion of lamb's lettuce for a lower price, now for a significantly higher price you only get 9 slices and a small "amount" of lettuce that doesn't even deserve to be mentioned on the menu. The same applies to other dishes too. It's a shame, we'll now look elsewhere.

Such a nice restaurant, the staff is super nice, and the food is simply delicious. 😋

The food was very tasty and the staff is very friendly, especially the boss

I've been coming here off and on for years. The staff is always very friendly and of course the location is great. However: the price-performance level has fallen. The prices for food are way too high for what I get. I had a bowl with glass noodles and round meat for 25 euros. It didn't taste particularly good, the amount of meat was manageable and there was something in it that I couldn't tolerate. My companion's roasted duck with vegetables and rice was also too expensive at 33 euros. Vegetables were manageable and strangely seasoned, duck was probably okay. During my penultimate visit a few months ago, I noticed that the food no longer really tasted good to me. Combined with the prices being too high in my opinion, I won't be able to go there a la carte anymore. A pity. P.S I've been having extreme problems with my digestive tract for the past 3 days. I only know it for bacterial infections...

Everything was great, nothing to complain about. The play area is great, especially with kids. 👍

Very nice place for dinner, in summer the garden is lovely. A lot of choice for food and drinks, quality is good and portions are large.

Great location! Food and service is great As regular guests from Osnabrück, we feel super comfortable there. Keep it up!

This time I was a bit disappointed. I ordered a T-bone steak which wasn't really tender and there wasn't any fillet in sight.

Very good and high quality food. The service was quick and friendly. Overall a nice experience.

We made reservations two weeks in advance for a friend's bachelorette party for 8 people and were greeted with surprised looks. There was no table ready and we had to wait half an hour. The crowning glory: we waited another 1 hour and 45 minutes for food... we were only served moderately. It was difficult to contact the service and the wine glasses were incredibly dirty. The tables at the entrance were completely covered in dust and already set without a reservation. I have no idea where the 4.5 stars come from... it's also outrageously expensive. Price performance doesn't fit. Not recommended :( a shame! So much potential!!

We were there for a children's birthday party and they did a great job!

I recently ate again with my girlfriend at the “Glück und Seeligkeit” restaurant and am an enthusiastic repeat visitor. As soon as you enter, there is immediately a feel-good atmosphere and a very nice welcome. The restaurant is also lovingly and stylishly furnished. The waitress assigned to us, a young man with black curly hair, provided us with a high standard of service! Very friendly and accommodating, with a bit of humor and - unfortunately not easy to find these days - a high level of specialist knowledge about all dishes, preparation methods and allergens of the dishes on offer. Always keep an eye on the guest. Kudos to the young man! You can see that he enjoys his work! Now to the food: Unique and of an absolutely high standard. For the quality of the food, the selection of wines and other drinks, as well as the overall impression - absolutely fair prices!! We will definitely come back, despite having to travel further!!

The ambience certainly has its price. The staff could be better trained. The food was good but not exceptional.

We had a large meeting with over 40 people, all of whom paid for their own consumption. Because of the confusion, it's not exactly the favorite scenario for catering and organization. Here we really received optimal support when it came to ordering and billing. The food was very good and the staff was attentive at all times. I was completely satisfied!

Gehobenes Ambiente einmalig in Bielefeld Zuvorkommendes Personal immer nett und motiviert Immer wieder ein Besuch wert.

A top location in NRW. Friendly and courteous service. Quality of ingredients excellent. Preparation on request. The taste was completely met. The prices are completely justified. We will definitely come back.

Personal requests (seats moved from inside to outside) will be happy to be fulfilled. Service very attentive, courteous, relaxed and professional. Starter, main course, cocktails top. Reasonably priced. Happy to come back!

Nice atmosphere but the food doesn't justify the price. Tastes like a slightly better system of gastronomy

Unfortunately a bit noisy for a group dinner, but you don’t get to do that in a church very often! The food was excellent, can really recommend any grilled meat or fish.

Great location for all kinds of celebrations!

Had our company party here. Great location!

Went there on June 10, 2024 with 6 people! The main course took almost 90 minutes to arrive and only came after I remembered! Then I ate the worst pizza of my life for €25.90 (Pizza Tuna)! Bitter in taste and base extremely thick and like cardboard! All other dishes, including pasta, do not meet the requirements in any way or justify the price of €30 and more! It's a shame that the kitchen here has deteriorated so much over the years! The service was good at the beginning, but after that there was not enough attention to the guest as more attention was paid to setting the tables for the next day!

Great ambience paired with very good food and top service. A good reason to go to church more often. ;-))

A restaurant with a great atmosphere. It was already quite full that evening, but you hardly noticed anything. Contrary to what you would expect from a church, the sound is dampened very well. The service was very attentive and friendly. The food was really delicious and the portions were large enough to fill you up.

Very nice and yet quiet atmosphere, price performance is unbeatable here and the portions will definitely fill you up. Reservations are a must here and the staff are passionate about it. We'd love to come back!

Was it originally a church? I am overwhelmed by the amazing atrium that makes me think.

Hello, was at the Katag event yesterday and was totally thrilled. 🤩 Kind regards to the boss, Elke Mayr

Always nice to come here again! This time we went out to eat for our anniversary! Reservation went smoothly. The nice waiter showed us the table. Our waitress was on the ball and brought the drinks quickly! The flamed carpaccio is really recommended. The main course was also very good. I can recommend the loads of sorbetto for dessert - again and again 👍🏻. We'd love to come back! Another tip: If you take the light rail, the Hatestelle is only 3 minutes away!

A beautiful restaurant. The location alone is worth a visit. The food and service deserve 5 stars. I haven't eaten so well in a long time. Definitely coming back again.

The food was very good, there's nothing to say about the ambience, it was very, very nice and everything was clean, the service was friendly, it just needs to organize itself a little better, but almost everyone in the catering industry has these problems...

An impressive venue in a former church, beautifully done, great food, great service.

Unfortunately, a very sobering experience. A really wonderful atmosphere but unfortunately neither the quality of the food nor the service justify these prices. Unfortunately, another negative thing to mention is that as soon as additional events take place, normal restaurant operations suffer greatly.

A great restaurant with good quality food and an exceptional ambience. The prices are not low, but the quality of the food is very good. You can park on site for a few euros. We'd love to come back.

Great atmosphere in an old church, disorganized reception despite a reservation, uncoordinated and inattentive service, friendly but overwhelmed. The food from the far too extensive and therefore arbitrary menu in no way corresponded to the price level. There were also long waiting times. Overall not a good dining experience.

Top shop, dining in a former church is something. The staff is extremely friendly and the food was simply delicious, everything was freshly prepared, just great

Sehr netter Kellner sehr leckeres Essen. Das machen wir gerne wieder.

We had a great evening here in a large group of ten people. The food was delicious and came to all guests at the same time. The location is really something special in terms of its appearance and ambience. The service and advice from Sina was great. She was always very attentive and accommodating. Thank you very much, we would love to come back!

A beautiful restaurant and the ambience is really something special. The food was really tasty and the cocktails were great too. In my opinion, the staff does a very good job. There is a parking lot right next to the restaurant but it costs money and you can only pay with EC card or credit card. The prices in the restaurant are not low but it is something for nice occasions or a romantic date. So a recommendation makes your own impression.

Amazing kakao, great architecture and friendly staff

Very cool location, probably one of the first churches to be converted into a gastro location, extensive menu where everyone should find something, very good food and very attentive service. Drink quality is very good and the price is completely reasonable, aperitifs are reasonably priced! We ordered asparagus, which couldn't have been better. The wines we ordered by the glass were also great. Service was very friendly and tried hard, everything was very good, just the first drinks and ordering were a little quicker, then it would have been perfect! But the store was also full… so everything was really good. Can be highly recommended! Background noise is pleasant despite the full house and the spaciousness.

On April 13th, 2024 I spent an evening with my sister in the “Glückundseligkeit” restaurant, hoping to enjoy a nice evening. Unfortunately, the experience was rather disappointing and felt more like a check-in for guests, which is not appropriate for a restaurant of this category. The ambience of the restaurant is certainly appealing, but the service left a lot to be desired. Despite the description as fine dining, the service was absolutely poor. The question arose as to where the beauty of gastronomy had gone, especially when job advertisements with this claim (upscale gastronomy) were published. We only ordered two courses that evening. As soon as we received our aperitif, we were served the bread and then the first course, just a few minutes after we ordered. The immediate impression was that the staff were under time pressure, as if they had to quickly clear the table for the next guests. This was extremely dubious! After the first course, the second course followed in a record-breaking time of just 3-5 minutes. It was impossible to enjoy the dishes as we didn't get the time. It seemed as if the kitchen was simply trying to make room for more guests or to end the day quickly. Such processes are more suitable for a fast food restaurant. We couldn't even finish the second course because everything happened too quickly, so we didn't have the opportunity for a third course or dessert. We weren't even in the restaurant for an hour. Good service and cuisine in upscale restaurants looks different. This earned the restaurant itself a minus point, so the tip was accordingly. Although I generally like to support the catering industry, especially in times like these. However, such processing of guests is unfortunate for a restaurant of this class. Particularly negatively noticed was the restaurant manager or boss in the white shirt, who was already applying pressure when seating the next guests, using a hand to encourage speed and rolling his eyes to force faster seating. The behavior was simply inappropriate. You should really think about whether you are suitable for a job like this if you don't feel like it. The evening was extremely unpleasant, especially since I even recommended the restaurant because I knew it from earlier times when the service was still of high quality. Maybe we should think about rethinking how guests approach guests. Unfortunately it just wasn't a nice evening for us.

A great, exceptional restaurant with a unique ambience. The service couldn't have been better. We've had better tomahawk steak elsewhere, but you can't get into the meat. All in all, a great evening that we will talk about more often.

We were in this restaurant for the first time with some business partners and were extremely impressed. The atmosphere is simply beautiful and cozy, so you can stay here for a long time and enjoy the evening. Each of us ordered a different dish and everyone was amazed at how high quality and delicious the food was. The service was also very good: attentive, polite and friendly. We will definitely go here again.

A must if you are in Bethel. Even just on a drink...

Great location. Unfortunately, there was a problem with the correct timing, so that our starter was overlooked (we received compensation) and the wine only came to the table when we were almost finished with the main course. Our main courses were also quite salty, although otherwise flawless.

Am 13.04.2024 habe ich mit meiner Schwester einen Abend im Restaurant "Glückundseligkeit" verbracht, in der Hoffnung, einen schönen Abend zu genießen. Leider war das Erlebnis eher enttäuschend und fühlte sich eher wie eine Abfertigung der Gäste an, was für ein Restaurant dieser Kategorie nicht angemessen ist. Das Ambiente des Restaurants ist sicherlich ansprechend, aber der Service ließ stark zu wünschen übrig. Trotz der Beschreibung als gehobene Gastronomie war der Service absolut mangelhaft. Es stellte sich die Frage, wo die Schönheit der Gastronomie geblieben ist, besonders wenn Stellenanzeigen mit diesem Anspruch veröffentlicht werden. Wir hatten an diesem Abend lediglich zwei Gänge bestellt. Kaum hatten wir unseren Aperitif erhalten, wurden uns schon das Brot und direkt danach der erste Gang serviert, nur wenige Minuten nach unserer Bestellung. Es entstand sofort der Eindruck von Zeitdruck seitens des Personals, als müssten sie den Tisch schnell für die nächsten Gäste freimachen. Dies war äußerst unseriös! Nach dem ersten Gang folgte der zweite Gang in rekordverdächtiger Zeit von nur 3-5 Minuten. Es war unmöglich, die Gerichte zu genießen, da wir nicht die Zeit dazu bekamen. Es schien, als wolle die Küche einfach schnell Platz für weitere Gäste machen oder den Tag schnell beenden. Solche Abläufe passen eher zu einem Fast-Food-Restaurant. Wir konnten den zweiten Gang nicht einmal vollständig verzehren, da alles viel zu schnell ging, und hatten somit keine Gelegenheit mehr für einen dritten Gang z.B. ein Dessert. Wir waren nicht einmal eine Stunde im Restaurant. Ein guter Service in der gehobenen Gastronomie sieht anders aus. Dies hat dem Restaurant selbst einen Minuspunkt eingebracht, somit fiel das Trinkgeld dementsprechend aus, obwohl ich die Gastronomie grundsätzlich gerne unterstütze, besonders in solchen Zeiten. Eine derartige Abfertigung der Gäste ist jedoch bedauerlich für ein Restaurant dieser Klasse. Leider zu wenig Platz für weiteres……..!

The ambience is something special, a former church with a beer garden. Very nicely done. The service was exceptionally friendly, very attentive without a trace of intrusiveness. Many thanks to our table lady. Greetings from the kitchen 👍🏽 The starters 👍🏽 The main course 👍🏽 The dessert 👍🏽 The drinks 👍🏽 Four very satisfied guests had a very nice evening. Many thanks to the house for this. We will recommend you and would be happy to come back.

My wife and I were warmly welcomed and shown to a beautiful table. The food was outstanding in terms of its visual presentation and excellent in taste. The individual components were finely coordinated with one another. The service was courteous, always very friendly and very attentive even to small things. Overall, the service always put a little smile on our faces. The ambience doesn't need many words: "special" and "impressive" sum it up.

An incredibly great atmosphere, great food and excellent service. Until next time 👍

Incredible experience!!!! The feeling is almost different because of the place. The restaurant is made within old church. Food is delicious, service is quick. They have separate section for Asian menu.

Luke 19:45-46: And he went into the temple and began to drive out those who were selling and those who were selling therein, and said to them, “My house is a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves.”

Always great! Food is first class! Definitely stands out. We really enjoy coming here.

Food was really good, but no better than other decent restaurants. As a starter I had Fish n' Chips Deluxe. Good starter. Especially a very large portion considering that the dish is only intended to whet the appetite. For the main course I had the beef fillet. The degree of doneness (medium rare) was absolutely perfect and the taste was very good! The gratin served with it was okay, but I've had better that way. All in all, a really successful menu. Service absolute Champions League. Very accommodating, very attentive and very personable.

Food and service were excellent. Very happy again and again. Thanks

A beautiful restaurant from start to finish. We enjoyed our small wedding celebration here, deliciously and quietly. It is definitely a recommendation to anyone who wants to eat deliciously and beautifully.
