Haus Wertheym in Frankfurt am Main

On Römerberg Square is Haus Wertheim, the only original house from the 1600s in the historic center. It's a three-story building, quite charming with its half-timbered facade. Currently, the ground floor houses a restaurant and is one of the must-see places in Frankfurt. We went there for a beer to appreciate the atmosphere inside. We really liked it.

A lovely, rustic restaurant with a great atmosphere. The food was delicious; the Sauerbraten melted in your mouth. The two servers were very friendly and attentive. As with many restaurants along the Römer, they insist on cash payments.

We actually just wanted to have a nice beer in the old town. The lady at the service was extremely unfriendly and seemed to us as if we had done something to her... Basically a beautiful historical building, but the atmosphere was so uncomfortable (very quiet, no music, we hardly dared to speak) that we were happy to leave the restaurant. NEVER AGAIN!!!!

Quaint, good, nice staff and it was affordable too...

Food was mediocre, a lot of it seemed warmed up. The portions weren't exactly big either. Service was also rather rough. Not recommended.

Ich kann hier schlechte Bewertungen überhaupt nicht nachvollziehen, oder wir. Das Essen war super super lecker, die Bedienung total freundlich und das Lokal an sich eine Augenweide. und so ging es nicht nur uns sondern auch den Menschen an den Nachbartischen. Nix touristisch und die Toiletten waren auch total normal. Manche Menschen, die hier schlechte Bewertungen abgeben, müsste man verstehen 😡

The food was tasty, but there weren't enough potatoes :). The cost of dinner + beer for two people was 44 euros.

The food here is very, very tasty. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was wonderful. Highly recommended

I truly have never reached such an orgasmic level of enjoyment for food. Eating the chicken curry was an out of body experience, followed by hallucinations and contacted by a spirit from the house itself. Reasonably priced so I had money left over to blow at the red light District after. 10 out of 10 experience.

If you are looking for an atmospheric place, historical, with good beer, then this is it) but don’t go here for the service and haute cuisine)) very strange attitude towards guests, the food is nothing special, but it was tasty. The restaurant is also very quiet, there is not enough background music. And get ready for general boarding with strangers)

Very colorful and atmospheric, the food is delicious

The place is very suggestive, it is practically the history of beer. Poorly managed place, unprofessional waitress, we ate the shank with potatoes, forgettable of very low quality. The classic pork cutlet with tasteless French fries, good beer. It's really a shame because the restaurant is a gem for its authentic decor, in a tourist location 200 meters from Frankfurt Cathedral. I recommend it for a beer afterwards because it's a place from the 1400s. I was really disappointed.

Not recommended for the food and the staff. The staff makes sure you order, eat and even leave. The food isn't that great. Only the place is nice.

You open the door of the specific beer bar-tavern and you are automatically at 1400!!! You'd think the patrons would be dressed as knights and talking like that... dozens of artifacts from past eras and centuries hanging everywhere, literally... creating the illusion of traveling back in time. The service was perfect, the lady who welcomed us and served us was kind and smiling, she also wished us a good appetite... in our language and as we know, Greek is not the easiest language!! We drank a Merlot and of course beer and ate schnitzel, everything was excellent... only the french fries did not excite me, because they were not handmade... the bathroom, although small, very clean. If you want to eat somewhere special I highly recommend it because it is also economical, but have cash with you because the business does not accept credit cards...

Quaint pub. Unfortunately very unfriendly staff. After we were made to understand that we were not wanted because we only eat small things, we left. We were charged for two additional drinks. The reason why we couldn't eat anymore: Only meat on the menu. By the way, they were the second worst fried potatoes of my life. However, we weren't even asked if it tasted good.

Very cute and unique place, very friendly service. Typical food, not excellent, but cheap for being in the city centre! overall a unique experience, recommended!

Two days ago I drank three Äppelwoi on the way to show my Bavarian companion a historic building as a Frankfurter. The next day we wanted to take another detour to enjoy an Äppelwoi. Was immediately turned away at 2 p.m. and the restaurant was completely empty. Nothing today, just drinking, just eating in broken, absolutely unfriendly speech. No go. No longer recommended compared to before. Above Römerberg there are much more friendly restaurants that apparently still like to earn something.

Delicious food, friendly service, great ambience.

They didn’t let us in for drinks. Also no cards.

Tourist trap. Unfortunately… :-(

We were not allowed to stay to drink only, although the place was not even full (mid afternoon). Only accept cash which is ridiculous in 2024. Tax authorities should investigate these places. Looks like traditional German place, but it doesn't seem like German owned. Tourist trap, avoid it, there are a lot of better options nearby.

Ehrliches uriges Gasthaus mit Frankfurter Küche zu einem fairen Preis. Uns hat esgefallsen mit Rippchen und Sauerkraut sowie Frankfurter Gre Soss

fantástico hallazgo - ambiente maravilloso en un antiguo pub (desde 1479 ) - tanto para mirar y disfrutar, el personal tan muy amable y maravillosa comida y el personal muy amable y conocedor de las elecciones sin gluten. Tan bien que volvimos otra vez. Gran hallazgo

Jagersnitzel is very good. Beer is good. Service good.

Lugar muy acogedor y ocupado. Bueno para un oso y probar platos tradicionales. Shnitzel ‘cazador’ estaba en gran porción y sabroso. Muy buena ubicación!

Nicht zu empfehlen. Habe die Rippchen leider probiert und mein Kollege das Schnitzel. Katastrophal. Wer dort isst, ist selber schuld.

This restaurant is cash only…and the owner acted like you are not allowed here if you don’t have cash on you. I mean I have 20 on me so I wanna see the menu to find out if it’s enough for a meal. He literally rolled his eyeballs and pointed the door like I’m forced to leave or sth. With his gesture and his attitude, I’m never entering this freaking restaurant again. The worst in Frankfurt!!!

Über Jahrzehnte immer am Lokal vorbeigelaufen, immer gedacht ein Touristenlokal. Mein Eindruck hat nicht getäuscht. Würde bereits am Eingang darauf hingewiesen, nur Barzahlung. Hatte Rouladen bestellt. Interessant die Rouladen kamen nur mit Kartoffeln, kein Rotkraut oder Sonstiges. Leider war die Soße kalt. Die Roulade selber ging. Die Toiletten sind eher eine Zumutung, dringender Renovierungsbedarf.

It is a very cozy and simply delicious little place, a mandatory stop in this historic place. Quite affordable and fair price. Order the goulash in any presentation

Perhaps the most fun restaurant I have ever visited!

House of the s. XVII. She survived the Frankfurt attacks almost unscathed. Ground floor with sandstone arcades, two upper half-timbered floors and a slate attic.

Service and decoration were good but unfortunately the food was a complete disappointment!

I wanted to have lunch there today and looked around the restaurant where only one table was occupied. Then a waitress came up to me and said that everything was occupied, even though there were no reservations on the tables. Clearly they didn't want to serve a single person! Maybe it's my luck, because I had an excellent meal a few doors down and was served courteously.

A great old pub! Great atmosphere and excellent food and drink!

Very good pub like in ancient times with lots of collectibles. Unfortunately no card payment. Too bad.

No card payment possible - service relatively unfriendly, food not great, but okay in terms of the tourist trap You have to like the ambience, very dark

This restaurant is tourist central with many , many better options in Frankfurt. >>>>>>>THEY ONLY ACCEPT CASH>>>>>BE FOREWARNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please understand that this restaurant looks like the real deal from the outside but the reality is that a large percentage of it's clients are tourists. Unfortunately , this translates to sub-standard service and cuisine. The location is perfect---close to the river and near the heart of Frankfurt. Restrooms available. Handicap possible. Final take---not my favorite by a long shot.

They ONLY accept CASH The place is very nice, it's not cheap but the service and food are worth it.

Locale caratteristico, location fantastica con possibilità di sedersi all'aperto nei pressi della piazza centrale di Francoforte. Menu con piatti e birre della tradizione locale, lo schnitzel molto buono! Aspetti negativi: i tavoli erano molto sporchi, e la nostra richiesta di pulirli è stata del tutto ignorata...abbiamo fatto da soli con dei fazzoletti che avevamo nello zaino. Servizio pessimo: il signore che serve ai tavoli taciturno e scontroso. Infine la sorpresa finale: pagamento solo cash..!

Very quaint restaurant with good food

The waiter brought the menu quickly. The food came after a good time. The goulash soup is very thin and there is enough bread. The schnitzels are not crispy, the sauerbraten is okay - the dumplings (2) are too small, the side salad is a bad joke. Iceberg (brown cut edges and too much stalk) carelessly dressed, dressing doesn't taste good. The toilets are so dirty that they disgust you. The waiter was only there to bring and pick up at the table. I wouldn't go there anymore.

A cute little cafe with an ice cream parlor. Unfortunately it is quite overpriced due to the location and for €2 we would have hoped for a much larger and better tasting scoop of ice cream. In addition, when we asked, we were unable to provide any information about which ingredients or allergens are contained in the products, which makes it difficult for allergy sufferers to know what they can eat. Unfortunately, unlike the rest of my group, I couldn't eat ice cream, which I found very unfortunate. In addition, the waitress at the ice cream counter wasn't particularly helpful in providing information and had little idea about the products she sold us. Overall, we would definitely choose a different location next time.

I had the Chicken with pineapple and it was very good. Partner had schnitzel and liked it too. Good service

We were waiting for our friends and therefore just wanted to have a drink. Apart from the fact that the waitress couldn't speak German well, we were denied the second drink after the first drink. They said we were only allowed to order food and were then sent away after a few minutes. Thank you for helping me spend my money only on good things. (We were 9 adults in total and didn't just order small things like water.) Generally very unfriendly and not recommended.

Worst service in Germany, how can you be so inconsiderate and unfriendly when you want to order

Der Tafelspitz war aufgewärmt und die Platte mit Rippchen, Nürnberger, Frankfurter, Sauerkraut und Kartoffeln war auch nichts. Wenn man renommierte Apfelweinlokale in Sachsenhausen kennt ist hier das Essen nur für Touristen. Die Bedienung war aber sehr freundlich !

The Tafelspitz was warmed up and you could forget about the platter of ribs and sausages for €42 (2 people). The service was very friendly. But you don't rely on regular guests here. Too bad.

Not great or very friendly and cash only

Perfect for tasting Frankfurt sausages, tavern atmosphere as you want it to be and very pleasant staff. With a beautiful view, I can only recommend

Very, very friendly service. The food was very tasty. Nice to sit outside in great weather.

One of The most beautiful restaurant/bar i've ever seen.

We had lunch there today. The waiter was a complete disaster. Firstly, he was completely alone and seemingly overwhelmed. The table we were sitting at was only cleaned at my husband's request. My husband ordered a knuckle and I a veal steak with grilled vegetables and fried potatoes. Over half an hour later we were served the wrong food. Then the discussion began. We both got veal steak with creamed mushrooms and fries. The waiter cheekily claimed that we had ordered it that way. Put the plates down and left.😡 Another guest swapped his meal with my husband's. Either the waiter wrote down our dishes incorrectly or the cook in the kitchen can't read the menu. What's sad is that the waiter has obviously never seen the inside of the menu. In any case, we will never eat there again. My husband's first beer was warm 😠 and came out of the bottle unchilled. He wouldn't have gotten a cent tip from me.😤 They should make the store better. NOT RECOMMENDED!!! P. S. The menu on the website no longer matches the current menu on site!!!🧐

Nice atmosphere Well cooked dishes Relatively small portions

Atmospheric pub, home-made food, but with global flavors. The pork shank is perfectly baked, the meat falls off the bone on its own. Pride!!! Delicately Apfelwine flavor. I recommend

It is very rare to find pork shank prepared so well. Chicken breast in curry sauce is delicious. Same as apfelwein and beer. And the information about the lack of card payments is very visible.

It's a tourist center, so it has a nice atmosphere. It feels like German food for tourists, and it's a little different from German food. The service is not recommended for those who are not used to traveling abroad. I think it's better to have a cafe feel and drink without eating.

I ask if there are still 3 places available and he tells me "you'll have to look." Thanks, it was very tasty in the competition.

Unfriendly welcome, order taken grumpily, salad catastrophe.

Good German food at a historic restaurant. Very small with mostly shared tables.

Food was OK, waiter was friendly, but the menu was really small but very expensive

A nice historic restaurant with traditional German cuisine. We have only had positive experiences. The atmosphere would be even better if there was some music playing. For recommendation👍.

The food is not too delicious, reasonable prices with great space.

Good for instagram pictures or a beer, food isn't good. Price is high.

Rudest staff since the beginning of time. My friend was refused her order because she didn't want to eat. Serious misunderstanding of the topic on the part of the staff (extremely unfriendly older gentleman). Congratulations, you've scared off two potential guests forever 👍

The inn doesn't even deserve one star. We were actually greeted warmly and assigned to the table, which was very dirty. Since they didn't have a vegetarian selection, I didn't want to eat anything, but my friend, when we wanted to order and I said I didn't want anything to eat, the innkeeper immediately said we had to leave if I didn't eat anything. So if you don't want to eat there, you'll be thrown out immediately.

A waiter quite rude decline our order argumentier that here we can order only food, and cannot just order couple drinks. Today is hot day, I just wanted a glass of beer. Ok, I can understand it, but please be polite with your customers

Severely overpriced. Food took 45 minutes to come out which was disappointing considering the two dishes contained 80% prepared in advance items.

Very good lunch and dinner. Good service Great location to watch people walk by

Urchig, aber das war's dann. Unfreundlicher Inhaber, kein kleines Bier, wird aber nicht darauf hingewiesen, absolut eklige Toilette, würden nie mehr dorthin.

Very arrogant staff. Ruined the mood.

Reputation is better than reality.

Terrible food, unfriendly service

I just went to drink a beer. It's worth a visit to one of Frankfurt's oldest buildings, one of the few that survived after the Second World War. The restaurant is very old too.

Very inviting from the outside due to its old charm, but from the inside it takes getting used to, narrow and overloaded with posters, pictures and decorative things, you have to like it. But I liked it, it had something of an old dive bar about it (not meant in a derogatory way). The food was tasty, although unfortunately a bit small.

The pork liver and meatball soup is amazing, very Chinese-style. The roasted pork knuckle and sausages are normal. The environment is quite tasty, but the lighting is too dim. The two waiters, the old man, are a bit slow, so you need to be careful when ordering. patience

It's pretty good so far, but there is no EC card, which is no longer appropriate in 2024. In terms of the ambience, time has also stood still, but in a positive sense.

The knuckle tasted rancid, the tea was cold, the slices were thin and dry and the potatoes were cold, which was a shame because the ambience of the place already had a charm to it

Had a fabulous apple strudel, whent back for more, and was disappointed. It tasted like frozen and a severe letdown from a previous experience

Food of terrible quality, don’t go. By the way they don’t take credit card (in 2024, seriously?).

The schnitzels I ate were super thin and the boiled potatoes that went with them were 2 mini and halved (partly black). The decoration of the restaurant is beautiful... and you don't expect a meal like this... the wine wasn't good either. I wouldn't recommend because the food wasn't what I expected.

Ideal for tourists to enjoy Hessian food and get to know Frankfurt

The fact that this is a surviving building from the war-- and a 600 year-old restaurant is just really cool. There are lots of silly signs and all kinds of memorabilia. Our food was good, too. Husband and I had the 5 sausage plate (with sauerkraut). It was good but more food than I needed! My daughter had the Wiener Schnitzel and loved it. It was a highlight of our short stay in Frankfurt.

An impacting & unexpected 15th century German Museum in which to dine!

Ok, die Gaststätte ist urig und der Service nett. Aber die Speisen sind wirklich nicht zu empfehlen. Der Sauerbraten war zäh, die Soße völlig geschmackfrei. Die Klöße klebrig. Das Jägerschnitzel war nicht paniert und kam mit ekligen Soßen aus dem Tetrapack und glibberigen Champignons aus der Dose. Völlig uninspirierter Touristenfraß. Schade bei der Top Lage.

The service staff is very bad, completely rude, I do not recommend this establishment.

Comida muito gostosa, lugar aconchegante, facha esta em reforma neste momento. Forma de pagamento é só em dinheiro não aceita cartões nenhum.

A detta della guida la più antica birreria della città datata 1479. Interno tipico in legno molto accogliente. Piatti della tradizione ben preparati e serviti da una simpatica signora. Ottima birra. Prezzo conveniente. Da non perdere.

I'm Mexican and I really liked the price and the food was delicious :)

I went here on a Monday night with my partner, it was mostly empty and extremely quiet, we didn't eat, just drank. It's a beautifully historic place to get drunk.

It is one of the oldest pubs in Frankfurt and has good food and an atmosphere worth seeing. Definitely worth a visit

We had lunch at this restaurant before a boat trip, the service was very slow, the food was average, the check for two was about 90€.

Cruel, cruel, cruel Please don't eat here. I can only agree with all the other bad reviews. Unfortunately very poor, unquality products. From eating to drinking

The worst food I've ever eaten in a restaurant... redfish fillet with SK and green sauce. Fish pieces frozen, watery, sober. Without any taste. Salt, pepper and lemon would have given the whole thing a little more spice. SK, 3 peeled sober potatoes. Everything is still lukewarm. The sauce was so flavorful. Fruit spritzer lukewarm. Without carbonic acid. At a price of €5.50/0.4 l. I would be happy to pay for that in an upscale atmosphere with an appropriately trained service staff wearing neat work clothes. It would also be nice if the table were cleaned before new guests sit down at the table.

Rustic ambience, delicious food, nice service, reasonable prices and right on the Römer in Frankfurt. We felt good. Time feels like it has stood still.

Horrible food!!! Salad and chnitzel looked like, it was cooked days before. We definately won't go there second time. Atmosphere was nice.

We always eat there when we are in Frankfurt. Nostalgic atmosphere and good food.

Gasthaus sehr schön.Das ist schon alles.Essen überteuert.Wir haben Jägerschnitzel gegessen und der Preis war nicht gerechtfertigt für das was auf dem Teller war.Frage mich was man nächstes Jahr für das Essen bezahlt.Personal war okay.

Essen war lecker und reichhaltig! Schönes altes Fachwerk Gebäude, bei meinem Besuch leider mit einem Baugerüst verpackt! Achtung kartenzahlung nicht möglich…

This place is perfect. Don’t listen to any bad reviews - the food is authentic and delicious, the service is amazing, and it’s so special that you can sit in a place that has been there for so long. Amazing.

Ресторан в старом немецком стиле. Еда не очень, цены выше среднего. Официанта приходится ждать долго
