Hänneschen und die Pfeffermühle in Köln

Authentic food, friendly service, amazing service. Our server was Amin, he was so friendly and nice. A family group and everyone with different ages enjoyed the food and service. Great experience. Highly recommend.

Best Limoncello Spritz in Cologne.

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! I waited an hour for food I ordered and it didn’t even come until I had to tell them again. DO NOT COME HERE. Worst people ever!

We actually had a reservation at another restaurant. After seeing other people's dishes, we chose this restaurant at short notice and were not disappointed. The food was freshly prepared and tasted excellent. The service staff was also well trained, which is something you would otherwise miss.

Everyone enjoyed the food and the price/performance ratio was okay. The waitress could have earned more tips and sold beer by being more present.

Nice staff, super delicious food!

Very nice and kind service. Very tasty food.

We actually wanted to eat a pizza next door, but we were treated so unfriendly there that we moved on straight away. And what can I say... nothing better could have happened to us... Very friendly and courteous service! The food was first class and the price was right here! Keep it up, we'll be happy to come again when we're in Cologne again!

The schnitzel was very tasty and the service from the waiter was first class!

Insanely good food at amazingly affordable prices. The portions are huge, the food couldn't taste better.

Outstanding place! We picked it based on the rating, and it was absolutely worth it. The currywurst is hands down the best we’ve ever had—truly addictive! The variety of beers is top-notch as well. Friendly and welcoming staff, and the dishes arrive in just about 15 minutes.

Unrestricted. Great food, very friendly service that responded to special requests.

Super tasty, Jonny cool waiter. Recommendation

We went to Pfeffermühle Essen yesterday and were super happy with the food

Place placed in a square. Very good food, minus what we had. Server nice enough, but they are in speed. Quite nice restaurant if needed.

Really nice food and friendly English- speaking staff. We had the jäger schnitzels and they came with a free bowl of salad also. Prices very reasonable. We sat outside as it was a warm evening and it was a really lovely atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

Really nice ambience… Service perfect, food very good portions and everything freshly prepared.. Price performance is simply top 👍… I can highly recommend it for Cologne, a top address

It's a lovely place to sit outside in the summer, but also very cozy inside. The staff were all really friendly, funny, and quick-witted. Despite the busy place on a Saturday evening, we received prompt and good service. The food rounded it all off perfectly; it was truly delicious!

The food is delicious, but the seating is often rude. They always tell you to make a reservation, but reservations aren't possible. FYI, we'd been sitting on the terrace since 4:30 p.m. and repeatedly asked for a table inside for 6 p.m. because six of us wanted to eat. We were repeatedly put off until we were told there were no spaces inside. They could have told us that right away, but then we wouldn't have been able to eat on the terrace.

Super delicious and friendly crew. Always happy to come back 👍

The food is so delicious and the staff is very nice

Very good place, friendly, good food

Super tasty stuff on the memory card. Really big schnitzels with different types of sauces. Reasonable prices and very friendly staff.

We felt very comfortable, the food was great and the service was quick and very friendly.

Food was very very tasty! Highly recommended.

We decided to do it spontaneously. And haven't regretted it. Nice weather and sat outside and ate in March. Us Bärbelsche and the Sunday dinner was really hot and super tasty. We will definitely come back the next time we visit Cologne.

Mega delicious schnitzel and really tasty fried potatoes! Super nice service!

Good cuisine, attentive service. We went to the restaurant spontaneously without a reservation and quickly got a table despite the restaurant being full. Drinks and food served quickly and tasted very good. Were satisfied.

We were there on a Sunday lunchtime. The restaurant was full. The food was super tasty and the prices are really very reasonable compared to the other restaurants on Heumarkt. The staff was generally very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately there was either not enough staff on site or the restaurant was overcrowded. Unfortunately, the waiting times were significantly too long and even after repeated requests, no (further) drink orders were taken. Unfortunately, coffee or dessert after dinner was out of the question. Lack of skilled workers or not... Unfortunately, going out isn't much fun... You should be able to use the places you have.

Super nice staff and the food was super delicious 🥰

It was a super sunny Sunday in March. In the middle of the hotspot of Kölle. Right on the Heumarkt and very good to sit in sunny weather. Despite the tourist magnet Heumark, reasonable prices for excellent food. Portions very generous and simply delicious. Top friendly service that always ensured clean tables and kept the shop under control. For both dishes together 52 euros including drinks. If you want to eat well and enjoy the flair of Cologne in sunny weather, this is the right place for you. Afterwards, just a few minutes' walk along the Rhine you can stretch your feet and enjoy the view.

This place has crazy good food and spectacular service. Their English is perfect. I routinely eat at this place. During the summer, you can expect some live music when you sit outside.

Look positively surprised. Price performance top. Our food was great.

The restaurant is surprisingly good for the old town. Friendly service. The salad with steak strips is fresh and delicious. The lamb was roasted beautifully pink. The schnitzel has a good portion. Price-performance and good quality are right here. When the weather is nice you can sit outside and look at the Heumarkt. Not just for tourists but also for locals...

Authentically german (with a slight twist). Really enjoyed the meal, super fast service and that atmosphere that makes you wanna say ‘Prost’ out loud. Really worth a visit. The salad was great and refreshing!

We were attended by the guy staff quickly to have a table. He immediately mentioned only for 2 hrs, because probably they have a lot customers on NY eve. We ordered goulash soup, lasagna, rumsteak salad, grilled meat mix and drinks.. The food were fine except the goulash which is too salty. I like the meat just how they were grilled and tender. We finished the lasagna, tasty! The servings are good for 2. Even though they were busy the guy was nice. The only thing that I didnt like was the way they talk to customers both the woman ans the guy. The woman i felt she is a bit racist and agitated when I approached her, I asked if we can move to a bigger table because our table was small for our orders, I do not think the food will fit. She was agitated and said all tables were reserved. Then the man was asked us to moved to a bigger table in the end. The way they speak sounded impatient and agitated, I was speaking in a soft voice but I found them scandalous in a loud voice. I gave a tip. Anyway the ambience could be better if the staffs look happy and friendly smiling.

Absolute recommendation!! Delicious food at reasonable prices. Great service that also responds to special requests.

Well, it's about time for the pepper mill to get the words it deserves. We've eaten here quite often now and have already convinced friends and family that a visit to the Pfeffermühle is worth it. Despite the high level of stress, the service staff remains friendly and always happy to say something funny. (The hut is actually always full) The pan-fried dishes are simply delicious and are also a hit with the other guests. After every winter, we look forward to coming back to your terrace in spring and summer with good food and cool Kölsch to simply enjoy the weather and the atmosphere.

Very rustic, very tasty, very friendly guys on duty who sweetened our evening with culinary delights. Best regards

The food tasted great, the service was very friendly and it was nice to sit in the middle of the old town

Friendly staff, delicious food, good value for money.

Delicious food, nice service and great location.

Absolutely recommended! We enjoyed it so much that we ate there twice in a row. Absolutely fresh food and no sauces, etc. Great ambience in the old town and the staff were on their toes and absolutely friendly and in a good mood. Thanks for the great service and the delicious food! Unreserved recommendation!!!

Best food in the area in my opinion and excellent staff very attentive.

The range of restaurants on site is huge and it is difficult to choose. But we didn't want anything Bavarian in Cologne so we stopped here and what can we say, it was great. Very friendly and courteous service, cozy and cozy atmosphere and very tasty and extensive and, last but not least, affordable food. Special requests were also addressed without complaint. We can highly recommend the restaurant. The location, ideally close to the parking garage and the old town, is also the icing on the cake.

Friendly and quick service. Had a rump steak with pepper sauce and fried potatoes. Steak very tender and very well fried, for 25 euros. Where else is that available?

We came based on the reviews and LOVED IT!! I tried Hausgemachte Lasagne mit Bolognessauce und Gauda, ​​which appeared as number 14 on the menu. Its price is 14.90 Euros and it is quite large and filling in size. It was the most delicious lasagna I have ever eaten... Then, for dessert, I tried Apfelstrudel mit Vanillesoßo (6.50 Euro), which was listed as number 51 on the menu, and I was very pleased with it. It was a dessert that was crispy on the outside and appley and soft on the inside. Overall, I was very pleased, I recommend it. Additionally, the service was very friendly and polite. If you have pork sensitivities, they offer the option to change dishes made with pork to veal on the menu. When ordering, please specify that there is no pork in it and that you would like to change it.

Delicious food, best place to eat in Cologne

I am a frequent guest here, I love the schnitzel and have been visiting for more than a year. Love it. Prices did get a bit higher but worth it at least once per month

Dec. 2024: it had something of a train station atmosphere...but it was very nice! Very attentive and very friendly staff...very good food! A nice place to meet, eat, have a drink and chat. Highly recommended! Gladly again and again! Prices are within the usual range of Cologne's old town!

Food and service are very good. Temizl is one of the rare rastaurants in Cologne who is a female cook in the kitchen.

Top schnitzel exactly the way you like it.

Very friendly service. Super tasty food at reasonable prices.

Great restaurant with very tasty food and incredibly friendly service. We would definitely like to come back.

Stopped in on Saturday afternoon and luckily got a spot. It was absolutely worth it: the food (including Hänneschen dreh de Pann) was great, the meat was fried to perfection and tender as butter. All served beautifully in a pan where the food was nice and hot. In addition, a very attentive and friendly service. Nice selection of drinks. We really liked it, thank you very much!

Very nice staff Food very good and sufficient. Price performance top. Come again

A cozy restaurant in Cologne. Right on the Heumarkt and therefore close to lots of activities when something takes place there.

Very delicious typical German food. Good atmosphere and good service.

We spent new year eve evening in here, had two burger and two beer. All were great. Team in here is very friendly.

Yesterday there were seven of us, we had an excellent meal, great service, no problem at all with special requests, service speed was top notch and the food was really tasty. We were all thrilled and it wasn't the last time we were there. Thanks for the lovely evening!

Relaxed restaurant with lots of local guests and local flair. Very tasty cuisine with a large selection and a fair price/performance ratio. If you're wondering about the model of a UPS cargo plane that's on the bar: "This is like our kitchen," the two guests at the next table, who turned out to be UPS pilots, told us. "The hotels where we stay are all in this area and we all come here because the food is just great"

Stopped here based on Google Maps reviews. Food was very good. I had a 300g rump steak with a pepper sauce. Ordered medium and received medium. Meat was nice and tender and tasty. The pepper sauce also had a very good, not too weak pepper flavor that was just right for my taste. Very tasty with the good piece of meat. Quite nicely furnished. The only negative point was that it was a bit cold. But today it was also quite cold outside. Nevertheless, I can recommend the restaurant.

We were very hungry and ended up here by chance. Actually all the tables were occupied but the friendly staff did everything they could to ensure we got a seat. It was a great evening, with great staff and delicious food. Gladly again!

While passing through Cologne we found this restaurant located next to the Christmas market. We had a waiter with a tattoo with a little lightning bolt near his eye, he was incredibly kind and friendly! thank you to this gentleman if he sees this comment because we had an extraordinary time thanks to him! The dishes were delicious and especially the dessert the “ApfelStrudel” is truly to die for! We even came back the next day at noon so that we could taste one last ApfelStrudel before leaving Germany… We highly recommend this establishment and will definitely come back if we are in the area again!

Great restaurant in the middle of Cologne. If you want delicious food at fair prices, this is the place for you. In addition, everyone was very nice, absolute recommendation.

Food super tasty, large portions. The staff very friendly and attentive. Nice ambience.

Excellent food in a top location in Cologne

So far everything has always been great

We went here for dinner because of the very good reviews. And we weren't disappointed. The staff was very friendly, the food was very tasty and inexpensive, everything was perfect, we would love to come back.

Very friendly, delicious food 👌

Everything was great, great food and friendly staff.

Nice service, food came quickly and was very tasty. Here you feel welcome and comfortable as a guest.

Perfect! Delicious food! A great New Year's Eve event for us

We like to go to this restaurant from time to time, luckily we are regularly assigned a more or less good seat, but it is advisable to make a reservation. The prices are pleasantly moderate for this location and the food is really delicious. There is plenty of meat in the goulash soup and it tastes great. The dishes are very sumptuous and served hot, what comes out of this minimalist kitchen is excellent. The food here is good, fresh and hot and there is no tourist trap. Even if the restaurant seems a bit small and overcrowded, it still has a certain cosiness to offer. The service is sometimes a bit overwhelmed but still very friendly. We enjoy coming and can definitely recommend the restaurant.

We left very happy with this cute restaurant, which we went to by chance during our visit to Cologne. Even though we went without a reservation and the restaurant was full, they kindly arranged a table for us. The food was great too. I would also like to thank Ms. Esra, who takes care not only of us, but of all the tables, and who never misses her smile.

We've been eating there regularly about twice a month over the last few years and wanted to eat there again on New Year's Eve. Although there were some free tables in the restaurant, we were not assigned a seat. Several people came after us. Also individuals. to which places have been allocated. We will avoid this restaurant in the future and recommend that everyone else not go there again. Food is not bad, prices like in the neighborhood but arrogance terrible. Better not.

Absolutely recommended and when we are in Cologne again, we will definitely come back!

Good food and reasonable price. Salad should be better.

Very nice staff. Very good food

Very attentive staff, food of a normal taste.

Thank you! Everything is very tasty, quick! The portion size is so big that we rolled it out after dinner ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️👍👍👍👍👍👍

We found this place through Google and were very pleased. It was very tasty, the staff was polite.

We visited the restaurant because the reviews were very good. We were very pleased with the quality and taste of the food as well as the good and polite service even though it was crowded. They brought us water and treats for our little dog. I highly recommend the lasagna and linguine.

Lekker eten, zeer prijselijk. Mooie en verzorgde zaak. Lekker warm binnen. Vriendelijke bediening. Schnitzel en worst van zeer goede kwaliteit. Frietjes en gebakken aardappelen perfect. Keren zeker nog terug.

Tasty food, very affordable. Beautiful and well-maintained property. Nice and warm inside. Friendly service. Schnitzel with vegetables and sausage of very good quality. Fries and fried potatoes perfect. Will definitely return.

Typical German restaurant with good food and reasonable prices..in the center of Cologne..

A bit loud but very very friendly staff, best we had in Köln. Don't expect insane food quality but very nice still, especially given the super super busy time. Would recommend!

We were here for the first time. Food tasty and good. Portions great for the price.

Bad. The appearance was not welcoming and the schnitzel was dry and the crust was falling apart. The fries were even drier and tasteless. There was also smoke in the restaurant's kitchen.

Stopped by by chance. Luckily early, so I would recommend making a reservation afterwards. The four of us followed the chef's tip and ordered the local pan. A poem!!! Waitress very attentive and friendly. Definitely coming back

I thought the food was great, and in this respect it was even one of the best restaurants on the Heumarkt. It was really nice and cozy there and the staff was also friendly and professional. I would recommend the restaurant to everyone.

It's very nice there because it's right on the Altermarkt and has a direct connection to the Hänneschen Theater. The food is great 😃🤗😍👐👐 as is the staff and we use it as a pensioners' meeting point every two months. Regular local.

De eerste avond in Köln zochten we wat te eten en kwamen we hier terecht. Achteraf gezien geen straf. Het was er erg druk maar een tafel voor 2 hadden ze binnen een paar minuten voor ons! Leuke uitgebreide kaart. En het geleverde was fantastisch grote borden met degelijk Duitse gerechten. De porties zijn groot en de prijs is netjes. Dus voor ons een dikke plus

Vinimos a este restaurante en nuestra primera noche en Colonia y fue honestamente genial. La comida era deliciosa y nuestro camarero era muy amable y acogedor. Nos aconsejó que solo podíamos tener la mesa durante 90 minutos, ya que tenían una reserva para más tarde en la noche. Esto estuvo completamente bien para nosotros. La segunda noche, intentamos ir de nuevo. Nos dijeron que estaban llenos. Nos fuimos y nos fuimos a otra parte. En nuestro camino de regreso a nuestro hotel, paramos de nuevo y preguntamos si podíamos hacer una reserva para la noche siguiente. Dos camareros hablaron con nosotros y nos dijeron que no aceptan reservas y que simplemente entraran. Dijeron que lo más que tendríamos que esperar serían 10 minutos. A la noche siguiente regresamos para ser recibidos por el hombre más rudo. Nos dijo que estaban llenos. Traté de explicar que habíamos estado en la noche anterior y hablé con sus colegas, pero él seguía hablando sobre mí y diciéndome que no tenían espacio. Le dije lo que sus colegas habían dicho, a lo que luego me preguntó si podían ver el futuro. Nuestra primera noche aquí fue perfecta, pero una pena por la falta de comunicación y la grosería del personal

We were surprised there was a table for us in a restaurant right next to the christmas market. Super friendly staff, food tasted good and it came pretty quickly!

Great restaurant with a good price-performance ratio.

Delicious food and fast service

Good service, very delicious food and good price. To repeat.

Despite the hustle and bustle of the Christmas market. Had a great and delicious meal here. The quality of the food does not suffer from the crowds. There was also a bit of time required between the starter and the main course. This was also applied well. And asked if the main course could continue. Really great considering how busy it was!

Always very hospitable and warm. Food hearty, delicious, very tasteful. Always enjoy coming here.
