Im Goldenen Ring in Düsseldorf

The waiter already counts the tip to himself with the change. Not very nice

The staff is friendly, and the place is nice. My Leberkäse (meat loaf) wasn't particularly tasty, but the potatoes were good. And my Fanta was a bit weak. The price for the food was OK, in my opinion, but I found all the drinks a bit expensive.

Hello, we reserved a table for three people for a Thursday by phone. The lady on the phone was very nice and knowledgeable. The reserved table was large, clean, and in a great location. The waiter came and took our orders without much of a wait. The food was really good and the prices were reasonable. The waiters could have been friendlier. But the highlight came around 8:00 p.m. There was some fantastic live music. You could even request songs, and they would play them. Over the course of the evening, we got to know the lady who had taken the reservation. Extremely charming and friendly, she went from table to table and spoke to the guests. She made us feel welcome. Thank you for the lovely evening at the "Brauhaus zum goldenen Ring."

Last Saturday, the participants of the European meeting of SIE (a global network with NGO status) thoroughly enjoyed their time at the Golden Ring. From the pork knuckle to the salad plates, the food was delicious, the service very attentive and witty in a typical Rhineland style. THANK YOU for the pleasant atmosphere after a long day at Meerting.

I really can't understand the negative reviews. We had such a wonderful evening here. Very friendly, fast service, and super delicious food. We had the rump steak, the fish, the schnitzel, and the potato pancakes. Everything was excellent, and any special requests were met very kindly. When we ordered another espresso after we had already paid, we even got it on the house. A warm, wonderful restaurant, with beautiful decor inside and a fantastic view and atmosphere outside. Thank you so much, we will definitely come back🙏🏼❤️

Delicious food, friendly service, and a wonderful atmosphere outside under the plane trees in front of the restaurant. We had a very nice evening here!

Great historic restaurant with real German food and beer. Great chef and lovely Italian waiter. Large terrace and rooms for groups. Children's dishes on request of excellent quality. Great Kassler and salmon.

The famous pork knuckles from Germany! There were, of course, other dishes, but I have not had a pork knuckle in years. Is gluten friendly restaurant labeling which dishes are gluten free. Fantastic! The meal was very good. All the food was delicious. The restaurant is nested in a very popular area. Recommend making reservations for larger parties. The warm apple strudel is a must. Full bar with nice selection. Definitely give them a try if you are in Dusseldorf and want traditional German food.

We visited the Golden Ring for the first time last night and were delighted by the pleasant atmosphere. We immediately felt at home, and what was supposed to be a short visit turned into four hours. The staff is very friendly, and the food is excellent. Highly recommended.

Extremely unfriendly waiters; one colleague's fries were sometimes still cold inside; the waiters were more concerned with talking about the customers than with serving them. Unfortunately, not recommended.

Unfortunately, our group of about 10 people was turned away by the staff member because the "clientele" was not welcome. (No reason (behavior or comments) was given that would have justified a rejection. Attached is a picture of the group. (No club shirts or similar.)

Were turned away at the entrance without reason

Rustic brewery, excellent food, attentive service! Greetings to Analena, you're the BEST!

Great place for a quick bite. Good food, nothing special, but just fine. Nice altbier.

Never again. Unfriendly service, tasteless food.

Today was the Bridge Run, and some participants even dared to leave things on the outdoor tables to prepare for the run. Even though the restaurant wasn't even open yet, an incredibly unfriendly employee chased everyone, young and old, away with harsh words. As a Düsseldorf resident, I will never stop here and advise everyone not to ever do so.

Extremely unfriendly waiters. Last Friday (May 2nd, 2025) we were there at 6:30 p.m. When entering the restaurant there was not even a greeting answered. Waiters were extremely rude and in a bad mood, not to mention the cleanliness of the restaurant. Never again!

Unfortunately I have to say that we are not satisfied with the goods. I had the knuckle and unfortunately I have to say the best thing was the sauerkraut. The knuckle was not crispy and the fried potatoes were not crispy but very soft. My wife had the herring dish and the potatoes were lukewarm.

Good, tasty and fresh food. Friendly service.

Great brewery atmosphere, top cuisine and very friendly service.

Waited 15 minutes and wasn't served. The waiters walked past a few times. They weren't stressed.

Every nice location next to the Rhine River. And nice seating outside. Great beer.

I love the atmosphere here, there have a table inside is perfect under cool weather. Love Schinken-Schweinehaxe - speciality of the house, but i can’t finish the mash potato, i am addicted with sauerkraut. The sausages also tasty. Very good place to enjoy the food and drinks

Typical restaurant very well located in front of the Rhine.

It takes over 2 hours to get something here. We then left

Typical Düsseldorf tourist pep. €31 for a Wiener Schnitzel with potato salad. It was OK but not worth the price. You can get better at every Austrian mountain pasture.

Unfortunately, my recent visit to the “Im Goldenen Ring” didn’t impress me. The atmosphere was a little louder than expected as the waiters didn't always have the quietest voices and the restaurant wasn't full. My main course, Himmel und Äd, left a lot to be desired. The flöns were fried, which is an absolute no-go for me, and the onions also seemed dry and fried. In addition, the compote was on the same plate, which didn't suit my taste. Even the mustard didn't convince me. I would have liked a fine Mostard. It could be that other guests enjoy the food here, but for me it is clear that I will not come here to eat again.

We were only here for a few alts. Very comfortable, very nice service!

Very traditional brewpub. Somehow we managed to pick a quiet night so the atmosphere was lacking. However the service and beer were great. Not the best pork knuckle I have had but very tasty - lots of fat to impart flavour but the skin was chewy rather than crisp.

Pure history upon entering. Decoration that immerses you in Germany. Very attentive waiters. Very very delicious beer. We ordered the sausage plate, with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes, a classic.

The schnitzel was good, the shank simply inedible. Three of us paid €125 for 2 pork shanks (terrible) with sauerkraut and potatoes and 1 cutlet with sauerkraut and potatoes and 3 beers worth 0.30. A steal especially since the shank was bad

Very cozy brewery, with friendly service and delicious food. Something above the normal brewery style. Recommended

Cozy atmosphere, delicious beer and good home cooking... the quality hasn't changed/deteriorated here.

Rude waiter, got angry because according to him as a family we ordered 4 cokes instead of 3. Oh, and after that we could only pay in cash. The neighbors, however, were allowed to pay by card. The joke of the day.

Food was tasty, service a little less so. Some servers were friendly, others not at all. It was quite busy (Christmas market?), and not everyone seemed focused. Asked for mustard 3 times, eventually went and got it myself. Alcohol beer given to someone who requested alcohol-free. Staff shortage?

I waited 20 minutes for one beer. Drama

The atmosphere is nice, but the food is very mediocre (lukewarm weak potatoes, tough meat). If you don't give a huge tip for that reason, a subtly dirty comment is made, the debit receipt is thrown on the table and the waiter walks away without saying anything.

Nice service, bad food, fried potatoes limp, not crispy at all, knuckle tasteless, little tasteless sauce, overcooked cabbage, fried onions from a can, black pudding, fried, complaint was noted, otherwise no response, a shame, walk-in customers are probably not valued

Only went in for drink but it is a lovely bar and restaurant with nice interior, had a oberbrau hell lager which was lovely probably the best beer I tried in Germany, staff very friendly.

Service is sometimes very unfriendly, you don't feel welcome here. Unfortunately, the dishes weren't a highlight either, there needs to be more in terms of simplicity!

Definitely not recommended to eat here. They can't handle a little pressure. Food was brought in parts and some things were simply forgotten. In addition, a number of dishes were cold, tasteless and worn out. And big prices were asked for all this. We will never come here again

Went there for the Christmas party Not all tables occupied about 2/3 full. Waiter a bit unfriendly rather annoyed. As for the food...my food was bad or insufficient for a brewery. A knuckle was ordered, with fried potatoes, sauerkraut and beer sauce on the side. The fried potatoes were poorly fried and sometimes wobbly. The delicious sauerkraut was floating in the sauce, which was no longer good. To the bone... One of the worst things I've gotten. positive.. the meat was tender and tasty which is not surprising because they are pre-cooked. The rind was crispy to a length of 2cm and the rest had something like pork knuckle in it. Things were no different for my table neighbors. My food went back and I was happy to forego a substitute. Here the waiter was understanding and completely agreed with me. Kind regards there Sorry golden ring, this was my 4th visit to you but also my last. 95ole

Great food, good price-performance ratio.

It was a great evening, the service was quick and top, the food was extremely tasty. The steak was perfectly on point. Only the side dishes were a bit small in portions. At first I thought it was just me, but three other colleagues discovered the same thing for themselves. Beer was tasty. The rest was great. The schnitzel was better portion-wise. Dessert was very tasty. But unfortunately also necessary to get full.

Despite a confirmed reservation, we had to wait about 20 minutes at the entrance on Saturday, November 30th, 2024. The reservation was not noted there. We were then shown to a table after about 10 minutes. After waiting at the table for about 20 minutes, we still weren't served and then left. If there are not enough staff, you should not fill every seat. It's very annoying when you waste an hour waiting unnecessarily on a Saturday evening.

In the afternoon we wanted to reserve a table for the evening. On site we were told in a cheeky voice that reservations were no longer possible but that we should just come along. When we arrived there in the evening we were turned away with the words "Access only with reservation." Too bad...

The place was nice. I went will my colleagues. They had limited vegetarian/vegan options. But they managed to suggest a vegan curry, which turned out to be pretty fine. :)

The place is nice, with German food and almost no vegetarian options, great beer (pils from the tap); nice location in the city center, nice atmosphere. A bit pricy.

Perfect service, short waiting times. Ideal for large group dinner

We went here during the Medical Fair and it's one of the few places we know we can go to without a reservation. We only waited 15/20 minutes for a table. Very good food and beer. I recommend shin which is the strong dish! Also good cutlet. Longer than average waiting times but with a beer it goes away.

Unfortunately disappointed...waited too long for the food, even though we were the only ones there to eat, the food was lukewarm, warmed up rather than freshly made. Not recommended...

Food is ok, place is nice, service is less than one star.

I visited at 8 o'clock on Saturday and was told that it was now closing. However, other customers were seen coming in after placing their orders. He was unfriendly to Asians and couldn't even order beer at all. The employees here are racist against Asians.

Great ambience. Perfect beer quality. Very tasty food. Absolutely recommended!

No service was offered. Despite there being a free table at which we had already been sitting for 20 minutes, we were turned away from the restaurant because they didn't have time to serve us

Food was great, Service was not.

food was cold; Service annoyed and totally unfriendly. Guests were turned away despite free tables. After we asked the waitress about her unfriendliness, we were told "we can sort it out outside"! Absolute disaster!!!! Never again!!!!!

Absolutely not recommended: average food, wrong dishes brought against orders, 20 minutes to bring a cola or ketchup. At the end: no tip, and the waiters got upset and shoutted at us "Jetzt raus!".

Not good, sit and wait for 15mins no one else in the restaurant but the waiter & waitress who are just standing talking to each other. Never again.

Reserved by phone on October 27th, 2023 for December 8th, 2023, we get there and unfortunately our reservation cannot be found. Anything could happen, but the way we were treated there defies description. Whether we were in the right restaurant, etc. No word of apology, no attempt to make it possible for us to eat there, just very bad staff. Since there are probably too many customers calling here and the employees aren't taking action, they now have a few fewer customers. It's a shame, we actually always enjoyed being there.

Under all guns. The restaurant was only half full. Many of the tables were no longer occupied and when we asked if we could order something, we were told that if we didn't make a reservation, we couldn't be served. (The photos are from our visit, around 9 p.m.).

Staff completely overwhelmed & unfriendly. Food was ok. There were pat answers to orders or queries. Long wait for drinks & food. Bowling alley available - everything ok. Overall unfortunately disappointing.

Unfriendly and inattentive service.

Seit nunmehr 10 Jahren bin ich stolzer Bewohner von Düsseldorf und frequentiere regelmäßig sowohl die Altstadt als auch andere Stadtteile mit Begeisterung. Doch nach meinem letzten Besuch, insbesondere in diesem Restaurant, wird es wohl mein letzter hier gewesen sein. Das Essen war durchschnittlich, aber was den Service betrifft, war dies schlicht katastrophal. Dieser Eindruck schien nicht nur uns zu begleiten, sondern auch einer anderen Gruppe Gäste. Es ist bedauerlich, dass ein Ort mit einer so großartigen Lage durch einen derart mangelhaften Service beeinträchtigt wird. Schade, dass diese Erfahrung den positiven Eindruck der sonst so lebhaften Stadt trübt.

Very expensive. Unfriendly and slow service. When the employees were asked to serve, they reacted rudely. No recommendation!

Sehr gutes Essen und absolut genialer Service. Sehr empfehlenswert, jedoch preislich auch eher etwas gehoben. Aber im grossen und ganzen hatten wir einen sehr schönen Abend.

Te weinig bedoening, waardoor lang morten wachten. Droge schnitzel en paratten. Geen sfeer. Chaos ij het afrekenen. Niet ingesteld dus voor een grote groep. Gewoon zeer teleurstellend.

Ich schreibe wirklich fast immer super Rezensionen aber was ich hier erlebt habe war echt daneben. Wir haben für 85 Personen reserviert. Service war mega langsam, ständig keine Getränke, ein Pils für über 9 EUR???!!! Das Essen hat auch ewig gedauert, weit über 1 Stunde für eine Pommes und war absoluter Durchschnitt. Majo Tütchen dazu für 1 EUR! Und ab 22.30 Uhr gab es gar nichts mehr zu trinken, bezahlen hat für 7 Leute über 30 min gedauert und um 23 Uhr wird dicht gemacht. Und das als Brauhaus in der Altstadt Freitag abends. Haben massig Beschwerden aus der Gruppe erhalten. Da wird wohl keiner mehr von uns hingehen. Sorry 🤷🏼‍♀️

Wer es mag, im Freien zu sitzen kommt hier voll auf seine Kosten. Mitten auf dem Burgplatz kann man hier schattig sitzen und den Platz beobachten. Die Bedienung ist sehr locker und umgänglich. Es gibt hier unfassbar leckere, krosse Schweinshaxen. Zu mäkeln hätte man höchstens an den Beilagen, denn das Sauerkraut ist mindestens zwanzigmal warm gemacht und entsprechend versalzen. Die Preise sind sicherlich am oberen Rand des Erträglichen.

Für ein 0,5 l Bier über 9 Euro schon krass Einmal und nie wieder

Ein halber Liter Warsteiner Bier kostet unglaubliche 9,10 EUR. Das Essen war lecker, aber nichts besonderes und die Aufnahme der Bestellung lies sehr lange auf sich warten. Mein Schnitzel war einseitig leider zu lange gebraten und verbrannt. Zukünftig nicht mehr. Besonders der Bierpreis ist eine absolute Frechheit!

Absolut nicht empfehlenswert y Wir haben über 90Min auf unser Essen gewartet, dann kam teilweise die falsche Bestellung - Reaktion war patzig. Flasche Wein kann man nicht bestellen, aber Weinschorle schon ?!

Hat bessere Zeiten gesehen, schmuddelige Terrasse. Schweinshaxe ging Rest war so lala, Terasse rumpelig und schmutzig

Unfassbar überteuert. 0,5L weizen für 6,80 oder 0,5L Warsteiner für 9,10.

Abzocke !!! Da werden Sachen bei der Rechnung berechnet wo man nicht hatte und dann wird man knautschig bennantt.... Frechheit

Das war so gemütlich , fiel Platz, wo wir säßen ( war Klimaanlage) Essen war gut ,für Eden Geschmack, aber gute Deutsche Küche noch ... An den Koch liebe Grüße! Und ❤Dank !

Das Essen war gut und der Service freundlich. Soweit alles gut. Leider gibt es kein Bier einer Düsseldorfer Hausbrauerei.

Das Essen war leider nichts besonderes, ließt sich auf der Karte sehr gut, schmeckt aber eigentlich nach nichts. Ungewürzte Kartoffeln und Pommes. Die Pfifferling-Rahmsoße, die es zum Schnitzel gab, hat nach nichts schmeckt. Die Getränke haben sehr, sehr lange gedauert für Altbier-Verhältnisse. Der Kellner Kevin war aber sehr bemüht und wirklich freundlich.

Gewoon een leuke dag gehad, prima toeven daar .

6,80 für ein Bier? Ihr habt doch nen Vogel! Nie mehr goldener Ring!

Wir waren mit einer Gruppe in diesem Restaurant essen. Zuerst hat es knapp 40 Minuten gedauert bis sich ein Kellner/in bemüht hat uns zu bedienen. Völlig überfordertes Personal. Falsche Bestellungen gebracht. Totale Katastrophe. Essen war ok. Fazit: tolle Lokation mit katastrophem Service! Nicht zu empfehlen!!!!

Langes Warten auf die Speisen. Getränke kamen falsch und auch erst nach langer Wartezeit. Bedienungen total überfordert. Personal müsste sich besser organisieren. Wenn man zu ihnen was sagt sind sie beleidigt.

Auf der Terrasse ein kühles Alt und das Treiben auf dem Burgplatz genießen.

Das Serviceteam ist super nett und das Essen war MEGA!

We stopped for a quick pint/1/2litre. The beer was great and the spot is fantastic for people watching right in the heart of the square.

Dieses Restaurant bietet den schlechtesten Service, den ich in Deutschland erlebt habe. Der Besitzer hat keine Integrität. Ich bin persönlich in den Laden gegangen, um eine Reservierung für 40 Personen vorzunehmen. Ich habe meinen Namen, meine Telefonnummer, die Uhrzeit und die Anzahl der Personen im Restaurant hinterlassen. Als wir ins Restaurant gingen, wurde uns mitgeteilt, dass es keine Sitzplätze mehr gäbe, und der Restaurantleiter bot keine Entschuldigung oder Lösung an, außer einem unhöflichen Auflegen.

25 min moeten wachten op 3 drankjes.

Leckeres Schnitzel gegessen. Leider war die Bedienung etwas unfreundlich und wirkte ziemlich gestresst und Kaffee gab's um 17 Uhr auch nicht mehr... Schade. Ansonsten nettes Lokal und das Essen war wirklich lecker.

Können das Essen leider nicht bewerten, weil man uns nicht bediente. Erst dauerte es ewig bis der Kellner in unsere Richtung kam und dann wurde man nicht angesteuert trotz dass wir versucht hatten Hallo zu sagen. Und ja, man hatte uns gesehen. Also sind wir mit zwei durstigen und hungrigen Kindern weitergezogen.

Yasmin hat einen super Service geliefert. Wir als Männertruppe wurden sehr höflich verständnisvoll bedient. Gerne wieder !

Locale tipico tedesco, viene servita la tipica Alt Bier di Dusseldorf

Am Japantag den Abend im Goldenem Ring verbracht. Toller Abend besonderen Dank an Kevin!! Bester Kellner wo gibt👌

Great atmosphere and even better service. I got seasonal fresh asparagus with few pints of alt - yummy.

Laut (undifinierbare Technoklänge in mega laut), dreckig und sehr chaotisch (Kartons u.ä. auf der Theke die niemand wegräumt). Sicherlich zu wenig Personal und diejenigen die vor Ort waren glänzen kaum was Freundlichkeit angeht. Natürlich spielt Überlastung eine große Rolle, jedoch sollte Gastfreundschaft gegenüber zahlenden Gästen nicht untergehen. Klar, in der Düsseldorfer Alststadt spielen Gäste kaum eine Rolle, kommt der eine nicht mehr, kommen halt andere. Aber zu empfehlen ist dieses "wasauchimmer-" Haus nicht.

Center of Dusseldorf. Nice food. Good service.

Kalabalık grup gidince servisle ilgili sorun yaşayabilirsiniz. 2 saatten fazla sürdü ana yemeğin gelmesi. Onun haricinde konumu, atmosfer, yemekler güzeldi.

Gute Speisenauswahl, Personal ok, leider war es sehr laut.

Super schlechter Service und zu lange Wartezeiten! Absolut nicht zu empfehlen!

endlich mal noch ein rustikales, gut bürgerliches Lokal mit lecker Essen

Sehr lecker und sehr freundliches Personal......Vielen Dank für das Bier😉😉
