Kellerhaus Chemnitz in Chemnitz

Schloßmühle and Kellerhaus, two gastronomic highlights located in Chemnitz's oldest buildings at the foot of the Schloßberg. A great atmosphere in the beer garden and excellent food! Highly recommended 👌🏼😃

Quaint pub, attentive service, delicious. You just have to accept that you have to pay.

The whole package is perfect, especially the short wait for drinks and food is very good. ⁷

We enjoyed it very much. We can recommend it

I was visiting chemnitz and was really looking forward to dine in this place. Unfortunately the taste was disappointing. But not only this. I got food poisoning after having a fish and a mushroom soup here. And the reaction was quite serious. I’m 100% sure that it happened here. Please be aware

Unfortunately, it was a complete disappointment for us. We had the Sauerbraten and the Roulade. The Sauerbraten was very tender, the dumplings quite small and firm and much too salty, the red cabbage was swimming in the sauce, which isn't everyone's cup of tea, and it had very hard outer leaves that felt like plastic wrap. The Roulade was hard, small, and not delicious. The price was very high for the not-so-large portion. We wouldn't eat there again. I realize we were sitting outside, but I still find smoking very unpleasant wherever people are eating. Unfortunately, we were then also greeted by the next table smoking, which was the last straw for us.

It's always nice to eat in an ancient, historic restaurant! Very friendly service, hearty, home-style food—what more could you want? We love going here.

Saß Kellerhaus is highly recommended.

I was disappointed after all the good reviews. We had pre-booked because it was my birthday and the table was supposed to be set already. Unfortunately, nobody knew anything about it. The table wasn't exactly what you'd want when you go out to eat on your birthday and have pre-booked. The absolute worst thing was that we waited an hour and a half for the food. Only after asking when the food would be arriving were they told it would be right away. I think they had simply forgotten about us. Unfortunately, it wasn't the birthday meal we had wanted. The food tasted good but wasn't a huge hit. It's a shame because I had expected more.

Waited 1 hour for the food, but when it arrived it was good.

As always, it was simply a pleasure and as always, the service was first class😊we always like to come back

Absolutely recommendable! A fantastic place! Excellent food, friendly and attentive service, and a rustic, cozy atmosphere. There were six of us and we were able to comfortably accommodate ourselves after a last-minute reservation. Thanks again to the entire team.

Great! The food is delicious and everyone is friendly and professional. We'd love to come back.

Hello everyone! We were there for lunch: served with a smile, portions of dishes are large and tasty. Great big parking. Thank you! I recommend visiting!

Beautifully located, excellent service, and reasonable prices. Very friendly staff. This is Chemnitz as I knew it in the past. The rest of the city center leaves many questions unanswered. This restaurant is highly recommended.

Found by chance in Chemnitz, really great. Nice that something like this still exists, many thanks to the whole team, we will be happy to come again Fam.Nagler

According to the menu, the food looked very good, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to expectations. Croquettes were too big, vegetables were soggy, dumplings were left in the water too long, red cabbage was overcooked, and the Camembert was inedible! On top of that, we waited over an hour for the food, and that for 95 euros, a price that would have been reasonable for good food. Here in Franconia, it would be said that a restaurant like this would have to close. I also saw some other guests' plates not empty. Maybe take a company holiday in Upper and Lower Franconia near Coburg, Bamberg, or Haßfurt and visit our beer gardens and country inns and feast. A. Herrmann My answer to yours: This has nothing to do with East or West, North or South; there are also very good restaurants in Chemnitz! But you can't say, "Sometimes we succeed, sometimes we fail." The menu doesn't say, "You only pay the stated price if it tastes good!" We also have restaurants where the food isn't so good, but then the customers stay away. By the way, I'm from Chemnitz and I'm no expert, but I've lived in Franconia for 36 years. Sincerely, A. Herrmann

Stedet krævede en lille spadseretur fra centrum. Meget hyggeligt sted. Maden var i orden, veltillavet og smagfuld, dertil rigtig godt tysk sort øl. Betjeningen var fremragende, imponerende tempo og samtidig smilende og venlig.

Delicious food. Friendly service. We had a very good meal there twice.

Sehr schöne und historische Lage am Fuße des Schlossbergs. Leider ergatterte die schöne Außenterrasse nur noch wenige Sonnenstrahlen ab 18:30 Uhr und der Wind lies einen fast frösteln. Der Service war sehr freundlich, auf Zack und in feinem passenden Zwirn. Das Essen war in Ordnung. Preis-Leistungstechnisch hätte ich hier aber mehr erwartet. Es war nicht nur zu wenig Sößchen auf dem Teller… Die Komposition mit Möhrchen und Erbsen hat für mich auch nicht so gut harmoniert. Das Salatdressing war unglaublich neutral und man hätte auch blank servieren können. Getrennte Bezahlung war überhaupt kein Problem und gut durchorganisiert!

It was a very nice evening. Advance booking recommended.

A very nice and cozy restaurant. The service was excellent, the food perfect, and the entire ambiance was perfectly coordinated. However, there is one small criticism... When we made the reservation, the reason given was an anniversary, with a table for two. We got that, but unfortunately, there was a larger group in the room, and the noise level was quite high. It was impossible to have a conversation unless we shouted at each other. Please keep this in mind when assigning seats. But I'm not deducting a star for that, because everything else was perfect.

Truly a great restaurant. The food is simply outstanding. The service is very friendly.

Delicious food at fair prices and super friendly staff

One of the best restaurants in Chemnitz for home-style cooking. The service is excellent. The waitress is attentive and very friendly. My little daughter was immediately given something to draw. The plates were well-filled and beautifully presented. My trout was a bit pricey, but very good and not overly spicy. The tongue was served without any problems, even with special requests. All in all, highly recommended. We'd be happy to come back.

Very good restaurant, lovely ambiance, friendly service, and the food is excellent! Always happy to come back!

Highly recommended. Very tasty food and drinks.

Staff tried hard but were overwhelmed, waited 2 hours for food with 2 small children

It didn't work at all... Service was poor. Food mediocre. First the drinks from the neighboring table were booked on us, then the food was taken incorrectly. The new food came far too late and was again not what was ordered. We have also experienced better food elsewhere. We certainly won't be coming back.

Zuerst im Keller platziert: dunkel, eng, kein Platz für Erwachsene, kein angenehmes Ambiente. Anschließend 30 Minuten Wartezeit bis Bestellung aufgenommen wurde. Getränke kamen erst nach weiteren 20 Minuten. (Reserviert 18:30, 19:30 keine Getränke oder Vorspeise.)

A really nice restaurant with delicious food but above all very friendly staff. :)

Highly recommended! Very tasty food, a very nice service team and the ambience is second to none!

Uriges und originelles Lokal mit traditionell sächsischer und deutscher Küche. Der Service war trotz viel Stress sehr bemüht und immer freundlich. Auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen! Die Ochsenbäckchen waren köstlich.

Very nice, seasonal cuisine. Attentive staff. The portions are not too big, but extremely tasty. And you have to try the beer. Be sure to reserve in advance

I'm a bit biased myself, I love Leipzig more than anything, so it's hard for me to judge Chemnitz, but the restaurant was really good🙃 The food was tasty. The service was super nice, again with a rustic character.

We were there for the first time today and were greeted very friendly. The menu was seasonal and varied. We chose various homemade lemonades, asparagus and mustard soups for starters and chicken schnitzel, braised ox cheeks and fried liver for the main course. Everything was very tasty, freshly prepared and extremely lovingly prepared. We felt very welcome and comfortable and will definitely come back next time we are in the area. Thanks so much.

We were there for the first time. A very nice atmosphere, the conditions were friendly too quickly. Food tasted great and large portions. Price/performance perfect. We'll be back

Leider hat die Qualität des Essens stark nachgelassen. Wir hatten alle unterschiedliche Speisen, es wird viel „Fertigware“ verarbeitet. Vor ein paar Jahren war das Essen erheblich besser und wir haben das gehobene Preisniveau gern bezahlt. Mein „Eisbein XXL“ war eher geschmacksneutral (hier fehlte die Zubereitung im würzigen Majoransud), Meerrettichsosse, auf die ich mich gefreut hatte, hat mir nicht geschmeckt, so dass ich nach der Hälfte des Essens aufgab. Bedienung war eher gestresst als zuvorkommend. Positiv zu erwähnen ist das Ambiente und der Umstand, dass die Getränke und das Essen zügig und relativ zeitgleich kamen, was aber sicherlich auch daran lag, dass unser Tisch nach uns schon wieder reserviert war. Das Angebot der Speisekarte ist eher für Mittag als für Abendessen geeignet. Alles in Allem war der Besuch okay aber leider nicht so, dass wir gern wiederkommen würden.

We spent two very nice evenings here. The food and service were excellent. Thank you

Very quaint restaurant, recommended. The dishes could be a little bigger.

Why aren't there 6 stars to give? I'm blown away. At first you think what small portions these are. In the second moment you are captivated by the incredibly wonderful taste. The goulash soup was amazing, but the rump steak with all the side dishes was top notch. If I didn't know, I would think there was a star chef cooking here. The staff is very nice and accommodating - dogs are also welcome. It's a shame that this restaurant is so far from home, otherwise we would come back very often. The naturally cloudy Kellerbier is also extremely good 🙂 If you are in Chemnitz, the Kellerhaus is a must ❤️

We spontaneously went to dinner in the basement house with our 6-month-old baby and our 2-year-old child. Unfortunately we ended up in a place where there was a lot of hustle and bustle going on, even though there were still a few quiet corners available. We were also mocked by other guests who saw me at the table next to us because I looked foreign and were given a cheeky farewell with the motto "we're happy to have given you a hug", they laughed because I ordered schnitzel, how ridiculous is that. We were only able to enjoy our food quickly because we didn't feel well due to the circumstances and just wanted to leave. We no longer want to enter the Kellerhaus and recommend it to others.

We had a fantastic time. Very friendly staff, delicious food, and very personable: not gigantic portions. We'd love to come back.

Very great atmosphere, nice service and good prices. We were here for the first time, but definitely not the last. Simply perfect.

Everything looks pretty and tastes good too. Service was friendly. At a wedding, you might want to check twice to see if the cutlery looks good.

Super delicious, super service, and my boyfriend would love to go back just because of the super friendly service. If you're single, please get in touch.

Great food and prices justified these days, will come back!

The waiting time for our ordered food was beyond our expectations. After an hour there was still no sign of our food.

Good food and friendly service, thank you 🙏

Highly recommended, and the chef knows his craft!

Great restaurant with very good food. There is something on the menu for everyone. The service staff was friendly - thank you very much 👍

A must-visit restaurant; A visit with the family to feel good and with very lovingly prepared dishes - always a pleasure. 🥰👨‍👩‍👧‍👦😋

Delicious homemade cuisine in appropriate portions. Friendly and good service. Attractive and cozy rustic atmosphere.

Went there on a recommendation and had pre-booked a table for 6 people by phone. The The attractively set table and, above all, the friendly reception appealed to us immediately. The drink order and our food requests were taken quickly. I chose the roulade with dumplings. A good choice. Lovingly prepared and very tasty. I can say the same about the food of my other family members. After about 90 minutes we left the restaurant full and satisfied. Payment by card without any problems. We were happy to give the TIP. Thanks to the service staff and the kitchen. We'll definitely come back. Heinz E.

I was a repeat offender last week with family and friends. The occasion was my birthday and I can speak on behalf of my guests - it was wonderful. The food is very tasty and prepared with attention to detail - after all, the eye eats with it. Our waitress was super attentive and friendly anyway. The organization of my desired floral decorations for the table - perfect. In short: I can absolutely recommend this traditional inn and would be happy to come back myself. Thank you for the lovely evening and best regards to the entire team.

The oldest inn in Chemnitz at the foot of the Schlossberg is always worth a visit. The selection of food and drinks offers something for every taste. Even a short-term reservation for 12 people for dinner was possible without any problems.

AMAZING ambience, tasty food and very attentive service! I can only recommend it to every Chemnitz resident or tourist!

Always happy. 2019 one of the best restaurants in Chemnitz. Addendum 2024: Significantly worse. After an hour of waiting, dried out meat, my partner had canned vegetables. But I'll give the once good restaurant another chance.

Unfortunately, no correct rating is possible because we were turned away very rudely when we entered the restaurant. The reason was the time 8:55 p.m

The food was very good, as was the service.

We recently had dinner in the Kellerhaus. Had pre-ordered for 3 p.m., 3 people. The music; I found the background music to be very loud. My 2 younger “blackheads” don’t. Maybe it was because we were the only ones😉 We found pork knuckle OK for the price quoted and it was plentiful and tasty. However, the sauerkraut was lukewarm and served with just a small dumpling without crumbs and a little sauce. We had nothing to complain about in terms of service. We were the only ones.

Oldest restaurant from 1436 in Chemnitz! Highly recommended 100 m to the parking lot!

Always happy. The service is super friendly and accommodating. The food tastes delicious and is a good size. The furnishings fit the whole.

Unfortunately no changing table - that's a real no-go for families

Great restaurant with good cuisine.

We have been here many times and we are always impressed by the delicious food and the rustic, cozy atmosphere!

What a restaurant. Very quaint and rustic. Great staff. Delicious food Prices okay

Very good wines and an excellent roulade. The ambience is also great. A real recommendation.

We were there on December 26th. at 1:00 p.m. in the basement house and the impression was not positive at all. The food tasted good. The size corresponded to a senior portion for the price of a normal portion. My companion had ordered a starter soup. The soup came in a cup and the cup wasn't even half full. I had game goulash with two small slices of dumplings and a very thin slice of toasted white bread. What was really unpleasant was the argumentative waitress on the topic of house lemonade. We stayed away from the dessert portions so as not to be even more disappointed. This restaurant won't see us again.

Unfortunately the quality has deteriorated significantly. Some of the food doesn't taste good at all.

Wenn man mehr als eine Stunde auf die Vorspeise warten muss und ein Mittagessen dann zwei Stunden - ohne Nachspeise, wohlgemerkt - braucht, stimmt fundamental etwas nicht in diesem ansonsten so schönen Restaurant. Eine nette Bedienung hatte zudem mitten während unseres Aufenthalts (wir kamen mit Reservierung ca. 13h an) Dienstschluss, die übernehmende Bedienung war leider kaum interessiert, unsere unverständlich langen Wartezeiten zu verkürzen, und die Qualität der dann ankommenden Soeisen war unterdurchschnittlich: das was als ‚Wildsüppchen‘ auf der Speisekarte angepriesen wurde stellte sich als dicker Soßen-Verschnitt heraus, dieselbe Soße fanden wir dann beim Sauerbraten wieder… Es brauchte fast eine Halbe Stunde ehe wir informiert wurden, dass die bestellten Gänsekeulen (wir fragten extra nach, ob es diese noch gibt) nicht verfügbar waren. Bei wenig Betrieb waren hier offenbar Bedienung und Küche überfordert - wir können nur hoffen, dass der Betreiber schnellstens reagiert, denn für das Jahr als europäische Kulturhauptstadt ist das einfach nur enttäuschend und sogar peinlich.

Very good food, fine cuisine, nice, competent service in a rustic atmosphere. Very nice :)

Very nicely decorated dishes, unfortunately the herb potatoes were not edible. Homemade lemonade syrup diluted with water also disappointed us.

We were there for Valentine's Day and also chose the Valentine's menu. Everything was perfect: super friendly and attentive service, a delicious and lovingly prepared menu and the historical ambience. We'd love to come back.

Fabulous food, very nice staff, hassle-free reservations

Perfect ambience. Great place. Gladly again. I was in the basement house again and what can I say. Rarely eaten so well. Everything was absolutely excellent. Clear recommendation.

Quaint restaurant in a romantic half-timbered ambience. Friendly Asian/Saxon service. Unfortunately the food wasn't that great. Game soup was the sauce from roast game with a few cranberries. Roast venison was then very dry.

The people there are very nice and accommodating. The ambience of the cellar house is rustic and beautiful, decorated for Christmas with attention to detail. I would definitely recommend the restaurant.

Very cozy restaurant with a great ambience. The food and service were excellent.

Fast staff, narrow menu (which is good), stews served on point

Christmas 2024, Christmas Day, actually one of three days full of peace and contemplation. We had booked a table for 4 people at 1:00 p.m. First impression, crowds of people are leaving the restaurant, probably the first “pass” of Christmas dinner. It swirled around us, tablecloths were changed, glasses, cutlery and napkins were uncovered and uncovered. We were handed a folded A4 sheet of paper (menu) with the words: “We only have a small menu today. After all, we have to do it too.” What? 😳 The first drinks reached us after 40 minutes, the starters (2 soups, 1 small starter salad), upon request, after 1 3/4 hours and then, the bottle of wine was now almost empty, as did the main courses. Yes, an apology was made and dessert and coffee were offered on the house, but the guest is neither interested in whether you work with temporary workers or whether you financially need two rounds at Christmas, nor do you dismiss a guest with the words, “That's me too stupid now.” Not even as the owner's wife. The quality of the food was very good, but the rest leaves something to be desired.

Update 2024: We had our family Christmas dinner here again. This time I have to say that it was impeccable, from the food to the service, the ambience, clean toilets, beautifully decorated tables! 1A 2023 We were here as a family for Boxing Day. It was full and the waitresses were quite friendly. The food was sufficient and quite tasty. One point deducted because the service wasn't really good, we waited a long time for food and we were heard asking for drinks 2-3 times more.

The inn was beautifully decorated for Christmas and impresses with its rustic ambience. It is only a bit drafty if you sit in the front area of ​​the ground floor/entrance area. The food tasted great, but the portion size was more than manageable. A heavy eater has a hard time getting full. And unfortunately, as everywhere in the catering industry, the prices for drinks are exorbitant and the quantities (delicious Kellerbier 0.4 !!! - €5.10, peppermint lemonade 0.4 l -€4.80). Otherwise the staff was very attentive, not intrusive and very friendly! We'd love to come back, but not so soon!

Really great. Very good food, super friendly and attentive staff, everything beautifully decorated for Christmas. Always happy.

Das Kellerhaus ist ein hervorragendes Gasthaus. Die Speisen sind super. Das zeigt sich schon daran das man ab 18.00 Uhr vorbestellen sollte. Das Personal ist klasse. Die Kellnerinnen servieren im Dirndl was das ganze Ambiente noch hervorhebt. Ein Besuch lohnt immer!!!!!

The inn is outstanding. Great food great service. Great staff.

Our group of girls ate in the Kellerhaus for the second time today and were thrilled again. Super nice atmosphere, very nice service and very tasty food. We would be happy to recommend the restaurant. We wish you a nice Christmas time and see you soon.

Excellent in all areas. Great ambience is topped by great staff. Very tasty food and nice selection of drinks. Reservation recommended. Prices are okay for today. We stayed here for two days and felt very comfortable as guests. Thank you for the lovely hours. See you soon.👍

Were there for the Christmas party. A quaint, cozy restaurant which you have to look for because it is very hidden. Due to the several restaurants and the construction sites there on the Schloßberg, it was quite annoying as there was unfortunately no signage! The staff was very friendly and asked if everything was OK and if there was anything else you would like. I found the waiting time for the main course to be a bit long at an hour. The seasoned meat was nothing special, the meat was far too tough and what was around it was apparently just a ready-made mixture. The dumplings with the ox cheeks were a bit dry and there could have been more sauce. So I think €23 is a bit excessive. The Swedish cup as dessert was very good and tasty! All in all a nice evening.

Very tasty food with good ingredients. We were extremely satisfied. No card payment was possible during our visit.

I was in the restaurant with a Taiwanese man, a beautifully decorated restaurant, somewhat old or rustic, top service, friendly, helpful, on the ball. Food wow, melts in your mouth, people like to wait here and drink a bottle of wine in the meantime, because the food is freshly prepared, if I could click on 6 stars I would give them too. Thank you again for the lovely evening and the wine advice. Wish the whole team a Merry Christmas and a blessed 2025.

Everything was great 👍👍Eat from our friendly waitress

For lunch today I had salmon, baked potatoes and baked vegetables. The taste is good, but the quantity is definitely not enough for 20 euros. I was a little disappointed. That's why only 4 stars.

The food is absolutely delicious. Very nice service and a wonderful pre-Christmas atmosphere. The cellar house is simply a must

Very nice Christmas decorations.

Great atmosphere (small vaulted cellar), but also the other places, everything was very comfortable. The food was excellent 👍🏻. If we are in Chemnitz again, we would be happy to come visit you again.

Dinner experience report Today I enjoyed dinner with three friends. We chose spiced meat as a starter, while the main courses consisted of roulade, sauerbraten, goulash and steak au four. The portion sizes were reasonable and fair for the price. Unfortunately, there were some discrepancies during our visit that clouded the overall impression. I would like to detail some points of criticism here: Drink selection: Unfortunately, iced tea was not available. Orders: The request to replace the dumplings with dumplings was promised, but not implemented. Food quality: The sauerbraten was tough and cold, it definitely should have stayed in the pot longer. In contrast, the roulade and the steak au four were excellent - there were no complaints here. The seasoned meat contained a lot of mushroom, which I personally liked, but not all of my friends. When it came to goulash, fatty pieces of meat significantly spoiled the enjoyment. Cutlery: The knives at the table were extremely dull, which made it difficult to cut, especially the tough meat. In summary, the food was okay overall, but had some weaknesses. The service quality was acceptable, but not outstanding - in particular, the lack of implementation of our request for changes to the supplement left a negative impression. However, the ambience deserves special praise: the design is extremely tasteful, inviting and contributes significantly to the atmosphere. The ambience is ultimately the main reason why I gave it four stars overall, although the sauerbraten was unfortunately disappointing as one of my favorite dishes. It is not yet clear whether we will visit this restaurant again.

Always recommended, nice service, delicious food, great ambience, we would love to come back

Nice service, good food and a cozy atmosphere. We'd love to come back.

Great food, priced in the premium segment. Ambience very tasteful
