Kälberhalle in Augsburg

a cool location and a nice beer garden, the schnitzel was also above average for German standards, unfortunately I wasn't at all satisfied with the staff, not paid attention to, no greeting, no "did it taste good" "no farewell, no thank you, nothing, no smile, underground.

Good authentic restaurant with good food

Free parking at ground level is suitable for strollers and wheelchairs. The entrance is hidden at the back of the building. Very friendly service staff. Were there for lunch. Ambience very appealing. The brewing kettles are illuminated.

The service is incompetent and unfriendly. Not at all prepared for vegans or lactose intolerant people, although every good restaurant should have this on their radar these days. I understand that on my last visit it was busy and the menu was therefore reduced (there were several graduation parties taking place). I saw in advance on the homepage that at least one vegan schnitzel is usually offered. When I asked about vegan options when ordering, I was offered the Kässpatzen. When I said Kässpatzen were not vegan, they were offered to me again. I gave up and opted for a sad side salad - “but please with oil and vinegar dressing.” Finally I got a salad with yogurt dressing. Great. Thank you for the stomachache. I'm never coming back. By the way, it's not the first time I've noticed that the service is rather careless...

Very nice service, the food also tasted good, but unfortunately the fries were already cold when they arrived at our table. We will still eat there again

Was there for the first time at the weekend. I actually just wanted to drink something but then decided to take the veal patties and I didn't regret it. Really tasty, lots of meat, little bread, delicious sauce. Today I was there again and took the lunch special with main courses for half price, Viennese style pork schnitzel with potato salad. Super tasty fried schnitzel with fluffy breading. Potato salad wasn't really my thing. It was too cold for me and a bit blandly seasoned, but that's a matter of taste. As a Swabian, I am very sensitive about this anyway. Service staff very nice and attentive. Location very nice. Large beer garden in front of the house. I'll definitely come back when I'm in Augsburg

Interesting but definitely cozy and nice atmosphere. Very friendly and competent staff. Feel free to come back.

Restaurant looks great inside and out, but all of this is shaded by a poor service that is provided. It’s not pointed directly towards waiters but the fact they are understaffed which results in long waiting times even though the restaurant was only 30% full. Food is generally good, only thing I would recommend passing is the duck since the one I got was overcooked and dry. After dinner we ordered espressos and waited 15min to get them, and when going for payment of the bill it was another 15min since apparently only our waiter could give us the bill. All in all a great setting but lacks a good restaurant manager present on site to coordinate the staff.

Super nice location, great ambience. The staff tries hard, nothing more. The food looks delicious, tastes rather average. Meatballs not cooked through, no cranberries with the Wiener Schnitzel. The clown ice cream for children, where the Smarties are the most important thing, were missing - they were out - as was the Kaiserschmarrn... The apple strudel is more of a frozen product... And that on a public holiday. Unfortunately the toilets were unclean and partly broken. It's a shame, we expected more.

First of all the positives, there are plenty of parking spaces and the inn is very nice. Now my experiences there. The three of us were there on Sunday shortly before 3 p.m., the restaurant was almost empty and filled up very quickly. We read in the menu that the main courses from 3 p.m. to 4.30 p.m. cost half as much. Then the waiter came and explained to us that most of the main courses were no longer in stock. Well, we still found Swabian plates and large dishes. So roasted potatoes. Ok, the kässpätzle on the Swabian plate were ok. The pork fillet was hard to say, it was relatively firm and the potatoes had fatty meat hidden at the bottom, which I don't really think belongs in, maybe it's a matter of taste, I like ned.Thick fat crust but now it would be half the price, but I'd rather pay more and eat well. It should also be mentioned that shortly after 4 p.m. the food that was supposedly no longer available was suddenly served to other guests. Duck and Co. Of course I asked the waiter about it when I was paying and he said it's available again now. Conclusion half the price, but it wasn't worth more, staff very friendly, special requests, we had to do it ourselves. Repetition. Definitely not on Sunday, but probably not. Visually ok but the pictures say nothing about the quality

The atmosphere is super typically Bavarian. Unfortunately half of the menu was out, What was the reason for coming here. The waiter is great 👍

If you want to spend a relaxed Bavarian evening in a cozy atmosphere, this is the wrong place. It's outrageous that a wedding is accompanied by loud Halli Galli and music so loud (92dB) that conversation is impossible. At least that should be said before ordering. In addition, four dishes on the menu are already out at half past six on Saturday evening. Stay away if you don't want to have a party. Max leaves permanently with his ears covered. A one timer with no need for repetition.

An incredibly beautiful location, with a lot of potential but that was about it on the positive side. The toilets are very dark and smell of old urine, like a train station toilet. Admittedly, we were there with a very large group. However, we had already been registered for months and it was clear how much of the 3 pre-ordered meals we would need... (there are always absences due to illness) When we arrived around 3 p.m. in the afternoon, we got our drinks pretty quickly. Unfortunately, from that point on nothing worked anymore. Actually, it would be so easy as a large restaurateur to serve large groups if you follow a few simple rules... At 4 p.m. the waiters began bringing the food, starting at one end of the hall. But unfortunately not everyone could eat because there wasn't enough cutlery on the tables, which is simply unbelievably sloppy for a group that had pre-registered. They kept going through the same rows one after the other and none of the waiters was able to carry more than two plates... Even on the large tablets that were sometimes used there were only two plates... It was definitely not the number of staff... There were plenty of them, but totally unstructured and overwhelmed. It would be easier if you assigned rows to each waiter... What irritated me was that every waiter kept starting at the first table with his plate and asking who wanted to eat what... This could be regulated very easily with colored chips or cards, then you don't have to ask and you can see at first glance what is still missing on which table. Sometimes the people at the tables ate alone because there was only one meal available. The rest of the table watched and hoped that they might get something at some point. A dish like Käsespätzle often came last and was already cold. The portion was more than small. The best thing was the waitress who ran all over the hall with two plates of cheese spaetzle and despite shouting, waving and eye contact, didn't react. She preferred to take the plates back to the kitchen and not show up at all. We sat at the other end of the hall, opposite the kitchen, and had our food 50 minutes after the first people, who had already left the hall before we even ate. We scarfed down our food so we could catch our buses. CONCLUSION: Wanted, but couldn't! If you want to hold a nice celebration with satisfied guests, you should avoid this location. Save your money and go somewhere else.... I don't want to imagine how such a service can completely ruin a wedding or birthday party...

The cordonbleu doesn't taste good, the waiter can't remember 2 cola and the Coca-Cola tastes like cheap cola doesn't work at all. The ambience is good

The service is very friendly and helpful. The location is really nice but loud. The food was okay. Maybe you have to go there without a large group, then maybe it's better, there's still room for improvement. But overall it was good.

Very good food Top service Gladly again

First impression was good, great location. However, very loud. The waiter who served us seemed very stressed and overwhelmed. The tone towards the guest was underground. When asked if the supplement could be changed, he took 3 steps backwards, crossed his hands over his head and said: Quote: "You are tiring" end quote. He said we should concentrate when ordering. And he didn't say this in a humorous way, but in a harsh, commanding tone! At the table next to our friends, he said that he hoped they weren't as strenuous as we were. That's really cheeky. Some of the food wasn't even warm anymore, it was just carelessly placed on the plate. Some toilets were broken and there was dirt that wasn't created just two days ago. It's a shame, we won't be coming to this restaurant again.

Augsburgs biggest Slautherhouse and Guesthouse with a Year round Oktoberfest Mood

Were well looked after by our waitress

I saw plates around me that were almost full and not being eaten. Schnitzel, currywurst. But my husband was happy with his sausage salad. My wine spritzer consisted almost entirely of water. But after my complaint I received a more substantial one. The ambience is really nice.

My favourite place to drink Dunkelweizen beer. The food is Bavarian and truly delicious.

Very cozy guest garden. Friendly and attentive service. Good wheat beer from Hasenbräu. Fries were okay.

Food was really tasty and decent portions.

Company event last Sunday (250 people). Hardly any staff in the area, drinks routinely delivered incorrectly, 30-45 minute wait for one of the 5 cocktails on the event menu (if you ever found someone to order from, orders at the bar were not allowed), and mixed with no-name rum in a plastic cup. For €10.50. The food was OK, but the service was really subpar.

Generally a nice restaurant. Special building with charm. Food was good and sufficient.

The food is very good. The service was also very friendly. Sat here in the beer garden, which is beautifully situated under the trees.

Food tastes like nothing! Sad . Price performance poor! Never again!

Great atmosphere in the former calf hall. The beer is also recommended, we can only judge the food by looking at what the other guests ordered and it looked very good.

Beautiful beer garden. I also think it's very nice inside.

Food ok but not in keeping with the atmosphere

Food was good, the price was ok - especially in the 50% time - service was poor and some dishes weren't available at all (e.g. vanilla ice cream).

I have to honestly say that I can't do anything with the food there. Anyone who rates this as good has never cooked themselves or is content with "mass eating". That's exactly how I would describe the food there...as slightly better canteen food...The food and the sauces are absolutely not seasoned...for my taste it's the worst run-of-the-mill food...The location is of course quite nice, But otherwise there are tons of better places/beer gardens... I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Great location, great beer garden. Food is OK, nothing exceptional. Staff tried very hard, but far too few. Here, too, you notice the staff shortage in the catering industry because you have to wait too long for your drink.

Very good food. Price reasonable Service needs improvement.

Very cool location, I had imagined a bit more beer selection. Unfortunately there were only two of our own products. (Light and wheat) The food was okay - but I could have managed a whole knuckle. But that's probably too lavish for many people. Spinach dumplings were delicious.

Friendly staff, rustic atmosphere and the food took a long time and wasn't great

I really enjoy eating here, the food here is simply delicious 😋

The calf hall is well known in Augsburg and so I was really looking forward to the visit, but it was more than disappointing. The food was nothing special. The meat was dry, unseasoned, the vegetables were completely oily. Completely carelessly done. There were 12 of us eating and two people completely forgot their food. Only after repeated requests and without an apology from the waitress did the food come. In general the service staff were very unfriendly. No thanks, no please. Unfortunately a very bad experience.

Dining next to large beer brewing kettles in the former slaughterhouse building is something special. Food typically Bavarian very good. Great offer: eat certain dishes for half price every afternoon. Unfortunately, not everything is always in stock during the beer garden season. Service is friendly but sometimes it takes a long time to be served.

We were there for a major event. The ambience is good. The food okay. For the amount that had to go through here it was actually very good. The staff were really very professional and friendly, even though they were really under pressure.

Service didn't feel like working and referred the problem to his colleagues, the food was cold, the beer was warm... the answer to the waiter's comment was that he can't do anything now... 3 of 4 toilet cubicles were defective. 1 of 3 sinks were defective, although the others were not tight and the water ran over my shoes below the washbasin. All in all, not a good evening.

Very nice atmosphere and food was very good!

It was very hot there. The indoor area is not recommended in summer. We then ordered 3 dishes that were, firstly, overpriced and secondly, they were not as ordered. I don't serve a pulled pork burger with lettuce and tomatoes. That should have been on the menu and it was a mini portion for 15 euros.

Went there for breakfast as a company outing, the selection of dishes wasn't very large. And even these ran out very quickly. After 15 minutes of the buffet opening, there were no more pretzels and in the end there weren't even any rolls left, so the baguette had to be cut open. We ran out of white sausages and there weren't even any bowls for the muesli, so we had to pour it into coffee cups. Nevertheless the food was very good. A pity..... Let's see how dinner turns out. Edit: Dinner was ok. The salads are clearly out of the bucket. The vegetables from the freezer. For the pulled pork burger, the bun from the supermarket, the meat was at least similar to pulled pork. The wedges were simply boiled potatoes cut into pieces and even though 'wedges' technically counts as potatoes cut into pieces, I thought the general consensus was that they were fried potatoes. The salmon fillet was topped with broccoli cream sauce. And since this was also fried in the batter, I have no idea how that works, maybe freeze the fish beforehand? The gnocchi were not raw, but still very firm. But at least enough for everyone😄 Dessert: Apple strudel was good, but with raisins, but as we all know, that's where opinions differ. The Kaiserschmarrn tasted more like fluffy pancakes, without apple pieces!!!! But with applesauce from a jar. The Bavarian cream really tasted like it, but it was too runny and not cold enough. The red fruit jelly was more like a strawberry mirror. Annotation: Next time, please add a serving spoon to the dessert. Scooping from a hot plate with a teaspoon was a whole new experience. But the service staff were all very nice.

The ambience is really great, which makes it even more of a shame what has been made of it. Apart from the fact that my companion's food was served faster than our drinks, I had to wait 30 minutes for my own dish. I prefer eating together. The service is absolutely apathetic, no apology, not even a “bon appetit” or an inquiry as to whether everything is OK. In my opinion, the service staff are completely overwhelmed and can't cope even with a small crowd. In the end you could be happy if you were allowed to pay after asking several times. The cleanliness also leaves a lot to be desired. Many tables were not wiped, no napkins or cutlery (the few available were dirty) were replenished. No salt, no pepper. Our table was still decorated with dried leftover food (see picture). Really very unappetizing! We served ourselves at another table, where there was still some cutlery and napkins left. The beer “Zapfen” is apparently a work of art in a brewery that has not been mastered. The beer came well below the fill level! As I waited in vain for my food, I observed how the beer was being poured there. I didn't know that you pour beer from one glass to another because you can't handle a tap and the foam it produces. Before the beer reached the guest, it stood for a while so that the foam was no longer present and the beer tasted lacquer. Really sad to have to experience something like that in a brewery. When my food finally arrived, which I was then allowed to “enjoy” on my own, I realized that unfortunately it was only ready-made products that I had bought. Unfortunately, the hopeless wait wasn't worth it at all. It's really a shame what you do with such a great location. We definitely won't be coming back and wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone!

The food wasn't great. The ambience is something different.

Great place to stop for a break in Augsburg

Sunday lunch with the family (8 adults and 4 children). Service was friendly, drinks and food came quickly! Unfortunately the food wasn't hot at all, the meat was very dry, unfortunately almost tough and the dumplings were very firm (not all fresh) We wanted to give the calf hall another chance, but we won't be coming back...

The ac was of and, had the weather not been bad it would have been impossible to stay inside for long but the food was good and service was ok.

It tastes better, but at grandma’s 😉😊🙆‍♂️

The beer tastes fresh and good. If you come without a reservation, the chances of getting a table are high. The green salad doesn't really taste good, the sauerbraten meat is tough. The waitress took my plate before I finished eating. She saw if there was any food on my plate but took it anyway.

Classic Bavarian beer garden restaurant. Good food, good value for money

Hasenbraeu on tap Bright, delicious. THX

Unfortunately, the service was completely overwhelmed and very unfriendly - I would attribute the food to always being tried hard but not really able to - the beer garden is really nice, if the food were better, drinks were cold and the service was somewhat friendly then I would have been happy to come back.

Great ambience, drinks took 45 minutes and the pre-ordered food took over an hour. We were registered and a maximum of 50% of the tables were occupied. Portions are very clear. The salad was missing from the Kässpatzle.

Nice Bavarian restaurant in a great location. Delicious food, a bit expensive.

We went there to watch football in the evening. The menu was reduced and there was no drinks menu at all. The first order was taken quickly and brought to the table quickly. The food was great. Unfortunately, from then on we were overlooked for reordering. We asked for more dessert which was refused. Afterwards we saw other desserts at the next table. I thought that was unfair. Upon insistence, we also received the other desserts. The speakers are ok for watching football, but not perfect (humming).

I was here about 9 years ago and I haven't been back here since. The onion roast was lukewarm and the Kässpätzle hardly had any cheese. Since the old review was deleted due to “defamation”, I now had to repost it.

Nobody speaks english, no meniu in eglish, thats horrible when you can not order food, took frizzante… bo bubbles in it, looks like it was in a fridge for a week! Not nice place not friendly stuff…. I dont rekomend it

The lokaschen is really very beautiful. And eat good food

Were there for Germany's European Championship game. Pure catastrophe - picture from the TV stopped every 5 seconds, no signal, then briefly there again, picture stopped, sound stopped. Technology sometimes fails, that's how it is. But NOBODY simply cared that it wasn't running properly. Just don't come here to watch the European Championships. There was very little food and the quality wasn't great. Waitress prefers to go smoke at halftime rather than get drinks, when everyone has 15 minutes to do so. Simply a disaster, job not understood by everyone involved.

The ambience and service are really good. Clinker brick building and a pleasant beer garden invite you to linger. Parking spaces can be found directly in front of the house in the slaughterhouse. Unfortunately, the taste of the food is very varied. The Swiss sausage salad could also come from the plastic packaging. The mountain cheese in it has the same taste as tofu. The sausage is good but not very lovingly prepared and the quantity is below average for a Bavarian beer garden. The Obazda, on the other hand, can be recommended at any time. Tasty and pleasant. Unfortunately there is no pretzel with it, just the normal sliced ​​bread. This bread can only be used as a filling material. The taste is average, like from a discounter. The mixed roast platter (duck leg, roast pork...) was good. Great gravy which we ordered again due to the quantity on the plate. Dumplings were good and so was red cabbage. 3 stars is my overall result for the calf hall - there is still room for improvement 👍🏻 Unfortunately after the public viewing I have to go further down. Service is poor, very expensive for little and little taste.

Came to the European Championship game - image transmission was catastrophic. Image hangs every 5 seconds (message: weak signal). Very poor performance, calf hall. Of those who have experienced this, certainly no one will come to the next game...

We loved it at the European Championship game. You couldn't watch the game, there were only glitches. We had to wait 35 minutes for the beer. We didn't dare order food before we had to wait forever

We wanted to watch the Germany game against Hungary because we saw the advertisement for public viewing on Instagram. Unfortunately, the broadcast didn't work at all, you basically didn't see anything of the game! We also waited 40 minutes for our beer, which we probably wouldn't have received until after the game had we not asked. If you're advertising an event like this, you should make sure that the broadcast is running... Food looks very good, but we didn't dare order because of the long waiting time. No thank you!

Watch the European Championship game in a different way. Static picture, sound much too loud with dropouts, public viewing set six. The only positive thing was that by half time half the viewing area was empty... Why? The service seemed to have said goodbye at half time, first and last time here

-Expensive -no good food -TV connection football didn't work -The waitress was in a deep sleep... waited 45 minutes for the first drink

Phew... Where should I start... We wanted to watch our boys' second group game at the European Championships today for a friend's birthday and actually left at halftime because: - our beer was stale - Despite asking, there was no drinks menu - due to the increasing jerkiness of the live stream we missed the first German goal - the service staff was unfriendly and unaccommodating All in all, I have to say that after this visit I can't say anything positive about the calf hall (I didn't eat anything, so that's not part of the review).

Great atmosphere in the old slaughterhouse area. The beer was good, the food (Gröstl) good, but nothing special.

Cheap dishes are advertised. The surprise comes when you get the bill: the advertising doesn't apply. What's special is that the dishes are even more expensive than they are on the menu.

We had something to do nearby and had to wait. We bridged the waiting time with lunch in the calf hall. As it turned out, that was a very good decision. Location, staff, food, ambience, even the toilets, everything was just right. The only drawback is that it is very loud, so be sure to bring earplugs!

A large hall and a large biergarten. This is a brewery, fresh beer in several variants, I recommend kellerbier. Food, typical German cuisine. Very tasty duck.

Very nice location. Unfortunately there were very few and overwhelmed staff, the service was nice, but they were often no longer visible in the entire location for over half an hour. So you had to wait forever for the drinks at the table and something was often forgotten. The portions are very small, the taste is OK and the food is not already prepared.

Football broadcast without sound... completely wrong

Attention: The happy hour hour, during which the entire menu is available at half price, is no longer available, but all dishes have been increased to €11. After we asked our waiter about this, the waiter cheekily told us that it had already been updated on the website. Even though we still had the site open at the same moment. impudence

Won't be coming any time soon. Cleanliness is something else, leftover food from previous guests under the table. We were there at 5:30 p.m., I can't imagine that the last guests at our table were there immediately beforehand. There wasn't much going on anyway, a maximum of 10 tables were occupied. Things didn't look much better in the rest of the restaurant.

Food and service were ok. But the toilets were the worst I've seen in years. Sink in rotten wood. Toilet seat is either completely missing or broken. Urine edges on all seats. Partitions made of old dark wood that I didn't want to touch. The struts of the partition walls are completely rusted. All in all just disgusting. How can something like this get through an inspection by the health department? An absolute no-go these days. I won't eat there again. Who knows what the kitchen looks like?

Asparagus was already out at 12.30, turkey schnitzel was careless with fried potatoes on the plate, and my Kaiserschmarrn didn't look particularly inviting either. We won't be going back anytime soon

Very tasty food, very friendly staff. Were really satisfied

The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was nice, but a little pricey and at evening you have to wait longer for your food.

Had half a pork knuckle, it was crispy and very tasty.

Location, food and service very good

Very cozy and a pleasant atmosphere

The beer is great 🍺 The schnitzel was not to my taste. That's why the fish 🐟 was great. Nice place, I recommend visiting.

Kitchen don't know what they are doing, Service is meh, Location is great. Wasted Potential

Were in the beer garden. Service was largely good, but the espresso with ice cream ball was delivered late, ice melted, coffee cold. Drink prices are consistently too high, beer or non-alcoholic 0.5L €5.50, that's Augsburg's top. Normally it's around €4. Food not convincing. Maybe I expected something different. Bauerngröstel: the scraps of meat were dry chunks of indefinable meat, the fried dumplings were still ok, the whole thing was swimming in brown sauce...; mixed salad very fresh and excellent. Overall mixed impression.

Even though it wasn't that busy, we received the wrong order. But it was done quickly. Friendly staff and good atmosphere.

The service today, Saturday 12.30, was again a disaster, hardly any guests, but the waitress didn't show up. We left again. This has happened to us before. For the last time.

Most beautiful restaurant for food!

The best Bavarian cuisine is recommended!

Food prices have remained the same, portion sizes have decreased. Orders for various dishes during happy hour are artificially delayed until happy hour is over, bad reviews are written to privately and pressured to remove them. Significantly decreased in the last 2 years

My darling had ordered half a duck with red cabbage and dumplings and I felt like fries, I got a baby portion of fries for a whopping EUR 3.90 😬🧐 the duck was lukewarm, poorly seasoned and the skin wasn't crispy either - everything was ok everything “Never again” 🙄

I ordered a Kaiserschmarrn that was dry, hard, old and warmed up. The waiter wasn't interested in my complaint.

We had dinner there on Saturday lunchtime. For the first and last time. Had an asparagus cream soup and a potato soup for €7.50 each. An absolute disgrace. The soup originally tasted like nothing except thickened water. I've actually never experienced anything like this anywhere. The Swiss sausage salad that we had with the main course for €11.50 each was a small starter with half a slice of cheese. The dried slice was also served with the bread.

Pure bad food. Simply pure use of leftovers. No go!

Nice waiter who comes from FRA and delicious food

I ordered bread dumplings with mushroom cream sauce and unfortunately I have to say that I have never eaten such old, hard, crusty bread dumplings. The mushroom cream sauce was tasty, but it was miles away from a cream sauce - very watery and probably no cream in it.

Very fast and nice service. Food was also very tasty.

Large restaurant in an architecturally beautiful hall. Best duck we have ever eaten! Only the radio music playing in the background is somehow inappropriate ;)

Very nice location with very good food and very nice service. We had a lovely evening. The next time we are in Augsburg we would like to come back.
