Goldener Pflug in Köln

Overall, I am very satisfied and would love to come back. Availability: Lots of tables, even during the Christmas season you can get a table without booking in advance. Practical. Food: Great taste/quality but smaller portions with decent prices. Drinks: Well suited to a brewery. Service: Kind and warm. Dessert was forgotten but when asked and apologized it came quickly and on the house.

We had our regular table in the brewery, the food and drinks were very good Staff is on their toes!!!

Very good and tasty, home-style food. Very friendly service. We were there with a large group and we all got our food at the same time, which unfortunately isn't the case everywhere these days. The sanitary facilities are in the basement and unfortunately not yet renovated.

Just ate a Jägerschnitzel with fried potatoes at the Goldener Pflug. I have to say today it was really first class. Great meat, delicious mushroom sauce, great fried potatoes It's worth coming back Service was super nice, friendly and attentive It's also nice when the boss comes to the table and asks how it tastes 👍🏻

We've eaten there twice now, my father invited us. Text of my first review (visit on 12/26/23) There was only a one-page menu because of Christmas. 3 people had sauerbraten (beef) with red cabbage and dumplings, 1 person had salmon with spinach and potatoes, 2 people had schnitzel with fries (there was also a very large side salad), 1 person had goose leg. The food came about 20-25 minutes after we ordered. I ordered the sauerbraten, which came with 3 slices of meat with enough sauce, a good amount of red cabbage and 2 dumplings (€19.50). I thought the portion was really big, it was by far the most filled plate I've seen in a restaurant in a long time. The same applied to the other dishes. The sauerbraten was really delicious. The meat could be cut with a knife without cutting it and fell apart in your mouth, the sauce was great, the red cabbage was delicious and the dumplings were amazing, they were really delicious, definitely not dumplings from the supermarket, I would say , made by yourself. My husband also found his salmon dinner extremely tasty. The service was very good, attentive and quick. My husband and I don't go out to eat often because I often don't see the return for a lot of money, we often think the portions are very small and/or I say that I could have done the same thing, but I don't have to go out to eat. Today I have to say clearly: it was really worth going out to eat. I could never have made the food as tasty. If we didn't live so far away (50 km), I would come here more often. I definitely recommend the restaurant with a full 5 stars. 2nd visit on 10/6/24 The selection on the menu today was a lot larger than at Christmas. It's not very big, but you should still be able to find something for everyone. Everyone should know by now that a menu that isn't too big or broad is more in favor of the restaurant than against it. You just can't be good at everything. Then it's better to have less choice and for it to be really good. The menu includes Rhenish specialties, but no pizza or pasta dishes, for example. By the way, the online menu is only an excerpt; it will probably be expanded depending on the season. So today we ate a knuckle that isn't on the menu online. What we ate today was: 1 x knuckle, 1 pork medallion, 2 x rump steak with pepper sauce, 1 x Viennese schnitzel with mushroom sauce, 1 x Himmel und Ääd and (me again) sauerbraten, which now cost €22.50. A large salad plate is served with the steak and Viennese schnitzel. This time too we found the portion very generous. Whoever got it was completely fed up afterwards. Everyone found their dishes very tasty, but one person had a bit of bad luck with the rump steak; there were two inedible pieces in it, but that can always happen. The service was very good and attentive, the food came after about 15 minutes, but apart from us there were only a few other guests there at the time (which I didn't understand...). The only drawback I would like to mention is that when ordering the rump steak, they didn't ask whether it was English, medium or well done, which should actually be the norm (since we hadn't thought of it, for example). Then the steak medium arrived, which is usual if you don't say anything. My 5 star recommendation still applies.

Best heaven and earth I've ever eaten...also from the presentation... Will 100% come back!!!

Good home cooking with reasonable prices. I'd love to come back. We were able to enjoy our food in the beer garden in late summer temperatures.

We were 7 people for lunch. Everyone had chosen something different and we all got the food we ordered together👍. It was very tasty and the service was very accommodating and friendly.

I was there a year ago and gave it four stars, unfortunately I have to adjust my review now and lower it to three stars. For children there is only spaghetti with tomato sauce, French fries or artificial products that are supposed to be made of chicken. I had a Rhenish Sauerbraten, the meat was okay, but I also know the Rhenish Sauerbraten with raisins and scallops. An additional seasoning would certainly have given the meat a little more oomph. In my opinion, the red cabbage was frozen, it had collapsed quite a bit, a little cloves, allspice or bay leaf or a piece of apple would have helped it up again, otherwise it was relatively boring and, as I said, collapsed. The potato dumplings have been kindly tossed in butter and breadcrumbs. In our opinion, the spinach gnocchi were also ready-made products. We then find that the price is no longer quite as reasonable. The other dishes were standard, so there's nothing special to report. There is a pork chop on the menu that costs around €28 with fried potatoes and €21 with a roll. Unfortunately, the price difference was not clear, and I find a cutlet for €28 extremely ambitious. A glass of Kölsch beer costs €2.50 4 km away. In a very nice beer garden you only pay two euros. The restaurant was only very moderately busy for a Saturday evening, maybe that's because of the price-performance ratio? Overall, we have already noticed that the golden flight is no longer what it used to be. A year ago I wrote the following: The Rhenish dishes are authentic. At Heaven and Earth there were only two slices of black pudding, a bit small, I thought.

The Goldene Pflug is centrally located in Merheim and has a rustic interior + nice beer garden. The menu is appropriately sized and offers something for every taste. The staff is friendly and accommodating. An absolute recommendation.

Cozy atmosphere, very nice and courteous service. We would love to come back.👍🍺

Nice staff!!! It's okay to eat!! but I always like to come, the atmosphere is very familiar!

Very good food, nice staff. Always my pleasure.

Delicious food and good atmosphere

Very cozy beer garden, delicious Kölsch, good food and very friendly service!

Very nice and friendly service. It was a relaxed atmosphere.

Service good, food unfortunately subpar. The salad for just under €18 was so bland, small and sloppy that it would be a case for Rach, the restaurant tester. However, this couldn't be of much help, because anyone who can't even prepare and serve a salad properly in a brewery kitchen is completely wrong in the catering industry anyway.

Great food, friendly service, rustic atmosphere but in keeping with the brewery

Large portions, good fries and a delicious salad dressing. Bread basket with dips could contain a little more bread for the number of dips. Nice service, nice beer garden. Rustic, normal food, plus Rhenish specialties.

It was well attended and the food came quickly. Outside in the beer garden.

We had a grill plate from the season menu. It tasted very good, great meat, well grilled, there was absolutely nothing to complain about, and the service was also very friendly and attentive.

Very nice atmosphere in the brewery style. Price performance is right. Good portions and great taste. Highly recommended.

Nice brewery with great food! Quick service at the table. Price performance absolutely fine and fair. I'd love to come back!

The service staff was very friendly and attentive. The food didn't take long to arrive and was really really good. I had a schnitzel with champion sauce, fries and a side salad. Rarely have I had such delicious fries! And the huge schnitzel was very tender with fresh champions. And really liked it.

Good home cooking, seasonal dishes top! Service is on point - drinks come quickly, food within 15-20 minutes of ordering.

With all due respect, I know everything has become more expensive. But charging €13.50 for a simple currywurst with fries is really cheeky. And Wiener Schnitzel for €19.90 doesn't make it any better. The 0.25 Kölsch in the beer garden costs €2.70. At these prices it doesn't invite you to linger. Sorry. Too expensive for me. The quality of the food also leaves something to be desired. As my predecessor already wrote.

Typical brewery atmosphere. Nice beer garden and normal food prices. Fast service.

Very tasty food😋staff is friendly👍I liked everything😉Special waitress, it was nice to be understood 👍Thank you for everything🙏🇺🇦

We had Easter dinner at the Plow. The service is top - very friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately, the food was mostly the opposite. Rarely had such bad meat been eaten and the food no longer seemed fresh - cream was sour and the meat was spoiled. The food was taken back without hesitation and an apology was made. Unfortunately it was then postponed. You would have tried the product and everything would have been okay. Apparently they didn't suit our taste. The people in question had gastrointestinal problems in the evening. Not enough about taste. It's a shame, mistakes can happen. But you should also be able to deal with it. We can. Grützi.

Very good food and also sufficient

Great, diverse, down-to-earth menu at reasonable prices. Great staff who also accommodate requests (we had reserved and wanted a different table than was intended for us, even though that meant a lot of hassle for the accounting department). One point deducted when eating because I always notice when ready-made sauces are used.

Everything is good, but it is very loud because there is no sound insulation.

Super tasty and friendly. Had a lot of fun there

Cozy traditional Cologne restaurant with the classics of Cologne cuisine. We ate a very tasty sauerbraten with raisin sauce, dumplings and red cabbage. Almost like grandma's. Any time!

Wir waren am 26.12.23 zu 7 Personen Mittags dort essen, mein Vater hatte eingeladen. Normalerweise öffnet das Restaurant erst ab 16 Uhr. Es gab eine nur einseitige Speisekarte, sehr vermutlich wegen Weihnachten und die Mittagsesszeit, 3 Personen haben Sauerbraten (vom Rind) genommen mit Rotkohl und Klößen, 1 Person Lachs mit Spinat und Kartoffeln, 2 Personen Schnitzel mit Pommes (es kam dazu ein sehr großer Beilagensalat), 1 Person Gänsekeule. Das Essen kam etwa 20 – 25 Minuten nach unserer Bestellung. Ich hatte den Sauerbraten bestellt, es kamen 3 Scheiben Fleisch mit genügend Soße, eine ordentliche Menge Rotkohl und 2 Klöße (19 € oder 19,50 €). Ich fand die Portion wirklich ordentlich groß, das war mit Abstand der gefüllteste Teller, den ich seit langer Zeit in einem Restaurant gesehen habe. Das gleiche galt für die anderen Speisen. Der Sauerbraten war wirklich sehr lecker. Das Fleisch zerfiel im Mund, die Soße war toll, der Rotkohl lecker und die Klöße erst, die waren der Hammer, die waren wirklich köstlich. Ich habe noch nie so Klöße gegessen, da war irgendein Gewürz noch zusätzlich dran, also das waren definitiv keine Klöße aus dem Supermarkt. Mein Mann fand sein Lachessen auch extrem lecker, Mein Mann und ich gehen nicht oft essen, weil ich ganz oft nicht die Gegenleistung für vieles Geld sehe, wir finden oft die Portionen sehr klein und/oder ich sage, das hätte ich ähnlich hinbekommen, dafür muss ich nicht essen gehen. Heute muss ich ganz klar sagen: Es hat sich richtig gelohnt, essen zu gehen. Ich hätte niemals das Essen auch nur annähernd ähnlich lecker hinbekommen und die Portionen waren auch wirklich ordentlich groß. Der Service war sehr gut, aufmerksam und schnell. Ich bin ehrlich gesagt was Restaurantbesuche betrifft eine „Nörgeltante“. Nicht weil ich so anspruchsvoll bin, sondern weil ich oftmals nicht die Gegenleistung entsprechend finde. Hier aber schon. Wenn wir nicht so weit weg wohnen würden (50 km), käme ich hier öfters hin. Ich empfehle des Restaurant definitiv weiter, von meinem Mann, meiner Tante und mir volle 5 Sterne..... P.S. der angegebene Preis bezieht sich auf Essen inkl. Getränke

Essen war nicht so lecker, wie ich mir vorgestellt habe.

Klassisches 'Brauhaus', mit überschaubarer Karte. Der von uns bestellte Sauerbraten war klassisch und in Ordnung. Beim Steak zeigte sich leider, dass ein Brauhaus kein Steakhaus ist.

Typisches Kölner Brauhaus, klassische Gerichte.

Wir haben unser 25 jähriges Stufentreffen dort ausgerichtet und hatten einen großen Raum zur Verfügung. Unsere 45 Leute wurden von einer! ganz tollen Servicekraft bedient. Immer wieder gerne! Top.

Bauhaus einfach aber automatisch

Tolle Brauhausküche, super nettes Personal. Sehr schönes Brauhaus Ambiente. Einen Besuch wert.

Schönes kölsches Brauhaus mit authentischer Küche und leckerem frischen Kölsch.

Waren zu dritt an Allerheiligen dort. Der Service war gut und zuvorkommend, das Essen okay und preislich angemessen. Hat eine gemütliche Brauhaus Atmosphäre alles gut

Netter Berliner Keller gutes Essen

Leckeres Essen, gute Preise und nettes Personal. Immer wieder gerne.

Immer wieder gerne Tolles Essen tolle Location

Leider etwas enttäuscht worden. Langsame Bedienung ohne Charme. Essen erfüllte noch die Erwartungen. Preislich noch tragbar wenn auch nicht alles bier was angeboten wird, verfügbar war. Schade

Wir hatten einen netten Abend, wo im Großen und Ganzen alles gestimmt hat.

Sehr schön gelegenes Brauhaus Allerdings gibt es von mir hier nur eine kleine Punktzahl. Waren an einem Freitag Abend vor Ort um zu Essen. Das Personal war leider komplett überfordert. Wartezeit auf das Essen 2 Stunden Wartezeit auf Getränke 40 Minuten. Das Personal sehr freundlich allerdings viel zu wenig Personal welches benötigt würde um den Kundenservice zu vollsten Zufriedenheit zu absolvieren.

Ich bin früher öfters hier gewesen. Der Service war wie immer super freundlich. Das Essen hat über die Zeit etwas abgebaut. (Jäger-Schnitzel) Früher hatte das Schnitzel 4 bis 4,5 von 5 Sterne erhalten, bei meinem letzten Besuch leider nur noch 3 bis 3,5 Sterne. Vielleicht habe ich auch nur einen schlechten Tag erwischt.

Zu wenig Personal für zu viel Gäste.

Sehr freundlicher Service Leckeres Essen

Haben im Biergarten gesessen, Essen gut angerichtet, schmeckte sehr lecker.

Alles bestens. Wir kommen wieder. Scharfer Merheimer sehr lecker.👍👍👍👍

Haben über die Jahre bzw mehr oder weniger seid Corona ein wenig nachgelassen aber das Essen und das Ambiente gefällt mir immernoch sehr gut.

Nett und freundlich. Hab aber 2x zum Bezahlen Bescheid geben müssen. Es kam dennoch niemand. Also nach vorne zur Theke, dort noch mal Warten und nach 25 Minuten hat das mit dem bezahlen endlich geklappt. Unsere Bahn war leider weg Würde mich freuen wenn sowas flotter und zuverlässiger klappt

Waren mit ein paar Jungs dort! Netter Chef und super nette Mitarbeiter.

Kann man zwischen durch gut essen gehen

Eigentlich ein schönes Brauhaus. Essen nicht berauschend und für ein Brauhaus zu langsamer Service ... hier sollte man keine 20min auf ein neues Kölsch warten müssen

Ein typisches Brauhaus eben. Da erwartet man keine kulinarischen Höchstleistungen. Unser Essen war lecker und preislich fair kalkuliert. Da kann man nicht meckern. Der Service war freundlich und aufmerksam.

Nettes Personal und ein sehr schönes Ambiente

Alles sehr gut, weiß nur nicht ob es ein Behinderten WC gibt....

Gestresste Kellner und ein noch gestresster Koch der die Klingel wie ein Irrer benutzt. Sehr lange Wartezeit bis das Essen kommt und bis man bezahlen kann. Die Qualität hat nachgelassen, daher nicht empfehlenswert.

Hier kann man wirklich einen netten Abend verbringen. Der " scharfe Merheimer" oder die " scharfe Merheimerin" sind echt lecker eine Riesenportion mit viel Sauce und knusprigen Pommes. Koelsch ist lecker, frisch und kalt. Meine Frau hatte frischen Spargel mit gekochtem Schinken, so wie es sein soll. Ich weiss nicht was manche Leute erwarten, aber hier kriegt man einen ehrlichen und leckeren Service zu sehr fairem Preis!!

Wir waren mit ca. 20 Personen dort. Die Bedienungen sind schnell und freundlich. Das Essen ist durchschnittlich mit einem angemessen Preis/Leistungsverhältnis. Brauhaus in der Vorstadt.

Einmal und nicht wieder. Erst mal eine Stunde aufs Essen gewartet. Der Speckpfannekuchen war so versalzen er bevorratete mein Salzdepot im Körper für einen Monat. Ich hatte nur eine kleine Ecke gegessen, bezahlen musste ich trotzdem. Mein Mann hatte Hähnchenbrustfilet, völlig trocken, die Bohnen lauwarm. Wir hatten eigentlich ein Familienessen geplant. Durch einen Unfall konnte es nicht stattfinden. Wir wollten aber trotzdem ein Testessen starten. Gut, dass wir nicht mit der Familie essen waren. Wir hätten uns nur blamiert. Das Bier kam nur, wenn die Bedienung es wollte, zum Essen hatte mein Mann kein Getränk. Das geht garnicht!
