Im Goldenen Kessel in Düsseldorf

Good food, drink and service. We were there early on a Thursday afternoon, so not full pressure yet😎

Very bad service, good place, super food.

Terrible staff. Serves you a drink without you asking for anything and asks you to leave if you don't drink enough to their liking. An experience that makes you put the level of service in other establishments into perspective. To flee!

I've been coming back for 15 years and it's always great. Food for every recommendation. The wait is short. Beer, very good.

I was in Düsseldorf for a few days for a seminar and went out to eat. Considering that in my opinion there isn't that much choice - just a brewery 😉 - it was very tasty. I had the meatball with fried egg. A colleague had the three potato pancakes which were very large and also great. I was amazed at how full it is/was even during the week. Service top.

We had a reservation for 16 people during Médica, a huge pharma exhibition. And I think they take advantage of foreigners. They charge us 60 beers and I counted 32, because something similar happened to us a couple of days before. There is no way I missed 30 beers, but we could not complain. A lot of people only had one beer. Wrong way to make more money

If you are a big group take care with the beers, they are always overcharging the total number

As always, delicious old. And a meatball to cluck your tongue. Large, behind it many a chip shop can cut off a slice, and fresh from the pan. Yummy.

Schumacher Alt beer is the best there is in Düsseldorf

Best Alt in Düsseldorf for my taste. Not too bitter💪🏻

As always, a great afternoon, good beer, nice people, TOP service. Always helps to drive away homesickness for Bavaria.

Were there with a foreign customer. Customer was thrilled with the service and the food. -Juicy food -Service on point and courteous -comfortable seating Highly recommend the meat platter with delicious side dishes as a group. As an individual, I like the dumplings with mushrooms We would be happy to come back with the next customer!

Düsseldorf brewery culture! Always my pleasure.

Super gemütlich, sowohl zum Drinnensitzen als auch draußen an den Tischen. Das Alt ist bernsteinfarben und schmeckt ausgezeichnet. Der Service ist freundlich und fix - hier muss man gewesen sein!

Unfortunately, Köbes is sometimes a bit off track and doesn't manage to deliver a new old one on a regular basis. That's on Oststr. 1000 times better.

Finally a freshly tapped Schumacher...or two. And the Eifel cream goulash from deer...

Fabulous evening, great atmospher and beer and service. Thank you!

Super cozy, both for sitting inside and outside at the tables. The alt is amber in color and tastes excellent. The service is friendly and prompt - you have to be here!

Saturday evening. A group of five men wants to drink an Alt. Our Köbe Pascal quickly brought one alto after the next, killepitsch and the venison goulash with red cabbage was fantastic. An evening that we would like to repeat. All in all a really nice and clean establishment. The food was great, the Alt was great and the Köbes was our man of the evening!

Typical Altbier pub in Düsseldorf. People go there to chat, drink Altbier and eat something. I can recommend the pub to everyone

Very famous brewery in the city of Düsseldorf. To find a place you need to book well in advance. The interior is large and chaotic but pleasant. You can taste the typical specialties of German cuisine including pork shank. The staff is attentive enough but lacks human contact. German prices.

Called in for drinks. The young waiter huffed and puffed and seemed like he didn't want to be there. We were then served by an older gentleman who took a 2 Euro tip when we paid the bill without us offering!

Onbeschoft behandeld door de ober en zijn na een half biertje met ruzie weggegaan. De ober wilde niet uitleggen of er nog iets naast de kaart te krijgen was. Het is wat het is .

Wonderful home-style restaurant in the old town. Despite the flood of guests, the staff were always very friendly and in the mood to have fun!

The potato pancakes were very good 👍 👍

What a terrible tent. Service not friendly and the food was inedible. Spongy mashed potato balls that tasted and were like wallpaper paste in texture. I understand that it is difficult for 84 people, but the tent was a third full by us. So they should be able to handle this.

Waiters are friendly and motivated. The managing director (rather male in appearance from a distance) makes an unpleasant impression. She treats her guests rudely, condescendingly and with a very unfriendly tone. The whole way is absurd these days. Letting someone like that go to the front as CEO is a sign of mismanagement. Brewhouse culture trampled under foot. Who feels comfortable there as a guest and employee? This will be noticeable...

Super friendly, especially with small children. Food great 👍 all in all it's really worth staying there.

Good fries and very unusual ways of preparing them.

A great restaurant. Food and drink at its finest. Great service. Service was really nice and attentive. Price performance ratio is right. Great selection of food and drinks.

Rustic inn with traditional cuisine and tasty Altbier. The service was excellent and the food was tasty

Caution! Here the waiters systematically and happily miscalculate… I love this alt, unfortunately we are charged too much too often….

10:45 p.m. and there is no more beer, the waiter is really bad :-(

Took tip without asking. Dont go here

Ask to pay cash and don’t give you your change

Classic brewery. I didn't like the food that much

Anyone who hasn't been to the golden cauldron hasn't gotten to know the old town. Beer delicious. Service on point and food very tasty.

I loved the interior of the restaurant. It wasn't too busy when I arrived, and so service was fast, friendly and efficient. The food I ordered - schnitzel - was really nice.

The waiter clearly showed that he was unhappy with the tip. Otherwise everything was fine.

Nice traditional Altbier brewery. Very rustic facility. Very good service. Food and drinks are highly recommended. Good price-performance ratio.

Delicious beer, friendly staff, but around 11 p.m. the cash was already being taken outside and the table was practically pulled out from under us while the key was still full outside. But the potato pancakes are highly recommended there.

delicious beer and uncomfortable brewery.

The brewery is a Düsseldorf institution and has the typical brewery atmosphere. In my opinion, the menu is quite manageable and at times the dishes are quite expensive. A pork schnitzel with fried potatoes for 22 euros is already expensive. Sure, you have to pay for the location in the old town, but the taste of the food is good, but not world class. My brewery meatball, for example, wasn't juicy at all, rather dry. The service was also quite slow, even though the brewery wasn't particularly busy. Nevertheless, you can definitely stop here for a visit to the brewery.

Hearty brewery style. The choice of drinks is very limited to the local Altbier and there is no brewery flair.

Great beer but atmosphere is not as the fun as the Schumacher location that was closer to the central train station.

The food was not as expected, the skin of the haxe should normally be crispy. But the taste was good.

Super delicious food, great waiters & extremely nice! The price is quite high but everything is tip-top!

The good vibes of the place are only due to the people who attend, the waiters are not very friendly and the food falls into the average/poor range. To have a cocktail or a glass of wine next to the river is OK.

Great beer hall in the centre of Dusseldorf where you are sure of a good Altbeer. Stayed here for a few drinks and was a really good atmosphere for a Tuesday night. Certainly worth checking out

Typical restaurant. Excellent beer and very friendly waiters

Food are good but one of staff so rude 👎

Always first Flönz and then this ALT. Always worth a trip from the pot.

Very tasty food. Fast, attentive and friendly service.

Scams tourists by overcharging drinks. The server was very unfriendly. Decent food.

Great food, great beer and great brewery. Excellent home cooking.

Good restaurant. The waiter (old with a calvas) is overwhelmed by events and tries to sell you beers constantly. Despite our refusal, we had to raise our voice so that he took back his drink and stopped this forced sale. Friendliness and professionalism: 0.

Nice service. Delicious schnitzel. Clear recommendation 🫠

No TVs. Same good Schumacher Alt as you get at Schumacher brewery. I preferred the BrauHaus Schumacher itself. Though this is in the Alt stadt where there are many bars.

Wonderful Schumacher Alt... very attentive service... great location in the old town

An authentic Düsseldorf brewery and restaurant serves my favorite Alt beer. A must every time you visit the old town.

Attention, very unpleasant waiters!!!

Delicious Alt beer style is served here. With friendly Köbes. One of the best breweries in Düsseldorf. Highly recommend also to try the 1838'er beer too.

I always go to watch football and drink an Altbier. The food is also very good.

thank you. It is located right next to Heine's birthplace. It is a good shop.

Tried twice - immediately found space twice. On the weekend! Service is quick. Unfortunately only 2 types of beer, but they were delicious!

Original Düsseldorf Altbier brewery with bar.

The service was good. With 12 people, we pretty much measured the entire menu. None of the dishes were good, everything was rated as average at best. No recommendation!

It was really nice again. Fast service and very nice people around us.

Always our first port of call when we arrive in Düsseldorf. Super friendly staff and fast service. We will continue to enjoy drinking there.

Everything you would expect from a brewery

Schumacher Altbier, in my opinion the tastiest Altbier....😉 Located in the middle of the old town, lots of bar tables, attentive service. ....relaxed atmosphere

I've been to the Golden Cauldron many times. If you value a typical brewery ambience, then you've come to the right place. If you want good service and good food, probably not. The waiters are always pretty grumpy and sometimes really unfriendly. The prices for food and beer have also risen sharply

Spent a lovely afternoon in the flood.

The staff is so rude, unbelievable. How on earth do you think this behaviour is nice to anyone? They don't deserve your money...

As always a must in the old town.

We had a wonderful meal and the beer is delicious. The goulash highly recommended

Very good and the beer tastes good 😘

The two big highlights were the mustard (oldest recipe in Düsseldorf) and the awesome altbier from Schumacher. A must visit for beer lovers.

Beautiful original brewery restaurant. Nice Köbes and hearty dishes at fair prices.

Delicious old food and great service.

Schumacher Alt, like the other fresh beers, absolutely flawless and delicious. The ambience is also great, the service is also good, but the prices for the dishes are very exclusive.

A wonderful, old-fashioned inn. Altbier and schnapps are drunk here! There's no shishi for food, just meat, non-vegetarian sauces (yes - even on salad) and hearty sayings when you make a fool of the Köbe! Quaint! You stand at wooden tables or sit down with strangers and come into contact. Very uncomplicated and truly Lower Rhine!

What a wonderful gastronomic experience and very good service. Everything very well prepared and sensational. Best experience in enjoying pork in the best place, Germany, and in a traditional place that serves the best dishes and beers.

It is very pleasant to enter the brewery. Food and potato pancakes very tasty 😋

The waiter is rude and kinda racist. It seems Asian people are not welcome in this place at all. We are not local and we are not white, so what? Next time you should put a sign of ‘Asians not allowed’ if you do not want us there! And we will never be there

Very nicely decorated restaurant, in the middle of the longest bar in the world. Starters beautifully regional and delicious. The main courses were not too small, but not too much either, and tasty. We recommend. The service is quick and on point.

Delicious knuckle and the best Altbier in town. Fast and friendly service and the best brewery atmosphere.

We were just at the Golden Kessel in Düsseldorf!!! It can't be that the Köbes says that you should sit at another table - it could be that he might need the 8th table. The whole store was empty at 12 p.m. We then went to the key and sat there at an 8th table. It works At around 12.45 I looked on the way to the car park and lo and behold, the table was still empty. Very surprising. Is this what we mean by hospitality?

You can like a place like this, at least if you don't mind the enormous background noise. The waiters are quick, but not overly friendly. I had a schnitzel + side dishes, which was edible but not particularly tasty. Definitely a great place for beer drinkers, but not really suitable for a Christmas party with colleagues.

This is how I imagined a rustic Hofbräuhaus. Staff was great. Understand fun and make fun too. The food was delicious and so was the beer. We will come back, no question

Very spacious environment, I ate in this restaurant for the second year in a row and I am also increasingly satisfied with the service of the waiter named PASCAL, very fast and attentive to customers. I advise

Ambiente molto spazioso, ho mangiato in questo ristorante per il secondo anno di fila e sono sempre più soddisfatto anche del servizio del cameriere di nome PASCAL, molto veloce ed attento ai clienti. lo consiglio

Very good brewery in the old town

I visited here after being recommended by a local person I first met at a coffee shop! The food was so delicious! I ordered a dish called Kasseler Lummer, and it was delicious, and the beer suited my taste better than any other place! In the middle of the parade, people came in and drank! It seems like a local restaurant!!! lol

Nice atmosphere, fast service, food and drink is great. We always make reservations in good time otherwise things could get tight. Greetings from the water rescue team to the whole team!

Typical old town restaurant with a wide range of regional dishes. Serving Altbier, which is produced in our own factory.

Very fast service! We had a top waiter.

Good home cooking, authentic brewery service and ambience. Top...

Many thanks to the waiter Dimitris for the service and food and drink suggestions.

Ευχαριστούμε πολύ το σερβιτόρο Δημήτρη για την εξυπηρέτηση και τις προτάσεις φαγητού και ποτού . Φάγαμε κότσι , σνίτσελ και λουκάνικα .
