Keule in Köln

Ambiente carino, molto rumoroso Personale molto simpatico e gentile Lo stinco di maiale è superlativo servito con crauti e purè Consigliato

It was so delicious! ! Mashed potatoes with cheese and sour cabbage are both delicious! It's a wonderful restaurant! ! thank you!

We were there today, 4 adults, 4 children. We sat outside. Waiter came out 3 times and didn't speak to us. After sitting at the table for 20 minutes, we went over, especially because the children were already getting restless. (the brewery with the orange facade) We spent around €200, which would have been their turnover. If this happens to you 10 times a day, that's €2,000 per day, that's €14,000 per week, €728,000 per year. So if you're wondering why sales could be better... Unless sales are so good that you don't have to serve everyone, then all the best and good luck!

I don't normally write reviews, but I just have to make an exception here. We don't like going out anymore because we feel like the service and the food are getting worse everywhere, but yesterday we received excellent service, the lady was on point, super friendly and very professional, we haven't been looked after so well in a long time!!! The food was also first class!!! We will definitely come back

Very pretty and elaborate setting but the experience was mixed. No menu in English for foreign tourists despite the central location of the place. Very complicated to communicate with the couple who work here, the man was quite unpleasant when bringing us the dishes because we did not immediately understand what he was trying to tell us. The food was okay, nothing more considering the prices. But big surprise when paying because we are only told at that moment that the restaurant does not take credit cards, why not have told us that from the start? No information is specified on site, and I don't see any comments mentioning it. Fortunately we had the necessary money in cash. I can't help but believe that it is indeed possible to pay by credit card but as there were few of us that evening everything suggests that the managers choose customers to recover part of their turnover in cash ... Be careful of this type of dubious practice.

Neulich hat es mich wieder nach Köln verschlagen. Da mir das gastronomische Angebot an der Rhein-Promenade nicht zusprach, habe ich es mal wieder auf dem Heumarkt versucht und kehrte in das Restaurant "Keule" ein. Ich wurde von den Kellnern höfflich und freundlich begrüßt und zum Tisch geführt. Da es an diesem Sommertag etwas kühler und windiger war, kehrte ich in die Innengastronomie ein. Ich bestellte ein Kölsch und eine Cola, sowie den Rheinischen Sauerbraten mit Klössen und Rotkohl. Der Teller sah optisch sehr gut aus. Das Essen war heiß und frisch zubereitet und schmeckt vorzüglich. Ich komme gerne wieder und war rund um zu frieden.

But unfortunately you are served 0.4 Kölsch. What in Cologne is no longer due to traditional customs.

We ordered schnitzel Viennese style and Rhenish sauerbraten. Restaurant wasn't overly busy. It took some time until the order was taken. Drinks and food came relatively quickly. Service was friendly, after that we didn't see the service at our table again. We weren't asked whether everything was okay or whether we still had any wishes. The schnitzel was greasy, the fries were sticky. The sauerbraten was delicious. We then went in to pay, then drank my wine, but no one even came to clear the plates in that time. Even when paying, they didn't even ask if the food was tasty. The bill seemed too expensive to us, we asked, and large glasses of cola were brought, and we didn't even ask. Absolutely not recommended!

Kölsch not as 0.2 although on the menu. The food on the plate is very different from the menu. There is a lack of love on the plate.

Very friendly service, table for 4 people blocked "just for drinking" at rush hour Thumbs up

Excellent schnitzel. Sat outside on a beautiful day. Service was great.

Unfriendly staff and we paid 27.20 euros for 2×0.7 water and 2×0.4 fanta. It was the last time we were there.

We barely managed to get a table. The food and the ambience is just lovely

Cozy, yet right in the middle of life. Delicious food, great service. Traditional local

Yesterday we were with a workshop group at the Brauhaus Keule and unfortunately we have to say that we will not be coming back. The reason for this is not the food. The food itself was impeccable. The rating relates to the order, as wishes were not taken into account, and to the inflexibility of the service, as separate card payments or rebooking to multiple tables was not possible in the end. One participant had to pay the total amount by card. In addition, when ordering Kölsch, Kölsch was unfortunately served outside in 0.4l glasses.

All perfect! The meat was so tender and crunchy ❤️. We shared a main and we were not able to finish it 🤣

My wife was absolutely thrilled with her schnitzel. I had Rhenish Sauerbraten, which was absolutely perfect. Gladly again at any time, thank you for this lovely evening.

Kölsch ordered 0.5 beer. Card payment is only possible from 20 euros then suddenly only inside, unbelievably simply bad 10 euros for 2 Kölsch

The pork knuckle is to die for! the crackling, the meat just falls of the bone. Service was first class. We ended up stuck in Cologne for an extra night due to flight cancellations and we came back to Keule to eat as our first time a few days earlier was so good and they did not disappoint. The espresso martini with vanilla ice cream is also delish!

Delicious food, good and nice service, highly recommended.

Ailem ile bugün sabah gittik. Gayet güler yüzlü ve sevecen insanlar karşıladı. Sıcak yemekler ve çok güzel bir elmalı tart yedik. Dondurmaları çok güzel. Wir waren heute Morgen mit meiner Familie dort. Sehr freundliche und fürsorgliche Menschen haben uns empfangen. Wir hatten warme Mahlzeiten und einen sehr schönen Apfelkuchen. Ihr Eis ist sehr lecker.

Rustically cozy, very good food and the service has its heart in the right place.

Ailem ile bugün sabah gittik. Gayet güler yüzlü and sevecen insanlar karşıladı. Sıcak yemekler ve çok güzel bir elmalı tart yedik. Dondurmaları çok güzel. We were there this morning with my family. Very friendly and caring people welcomed us. We had warm meals and a very nice apple pie. Their ice cream is very tasty.

Finally Kölsch in decently sized glasses with the best service

The pork witch is definitely too salty.

Very much very tasty very friendly

We came to this restaurant by chance and found space immediately. The food and gaff tasted good and were okay in terms of price. The waitress was very friendly, engaging and had a good sense of humor. A visit is recommended.

Quaint restaurant with local food and drinks. Friendly staff, unfortunately a bit too inattentive. Very tasty food, portions are large enough and served fresh and hot. Good price/performance ratio. Payment possible in cash and by card.

We were already a little late. For once, despite being late, we were made something to eat :) Luckily, because I wanted to end our anniversary there with my sweetheart, I was extremely pleased with how warmly we were received. Very accommodating, rightly 5 stars!

Ate here today with my girlfriend and I still absolutely love the waitresses. A couple of around 50 to 60 who provide delicious authentic German food and drinks with fun and enjoyment.

No 1 Pork Knuckle in Koeln . A must try ! We had an excellent dinner of roasted pork knuckle. The crackling was perfectly done and the meat was very very tasty 👍

Great shop right on the Heumarkt. The pork knuckle was super juicy and delicious. The drinks could have been a little cooler and the waiter forgot about us for a while but otherwise great.

I ask for tap water and they charged me 5.60 dollars (when in the menu it was said 2.80). The service was incredibly rude.

Wood nothing special. Service nothing special. Waiter but some extra cost on the bill.

We were there with a wedding party in the upper rooms. In my opinion it's a little too narrow for a certain number of people and it's not pleasant that you can't open a window there. The food was in buffet form. Rather average. Alldings the service was very good. Friendly waiters who ran up and down even just for a drink. And were always attentive.

Great place for a beer! Excellent service and located in the heart of Cologne.

Bad food that we waited 2 hours for was bottomless

Iconic atmosphere....delicious Kölsch in typical style....👍😉

It's very loud outside in the old town! There was no vegan dish, and nothing else vegetarian either! It was tasty, but I would have preferred to eat vegetarian.

Service was great, food tasted excellent

Very tasty food, delicious beer, warm and inviting staff that made two travelers feel at ease. Very BIG portions of food. Enjoy!

The food was sumptuous and the waiters were quick. I like sauerbraten better in Swabia.

Very good food .The food was served 5 min after ordering

Please train your staff to be more diverse and inclusive. There are many races and ethnicities around the world, and visitors come to experience new cultures, food, and drinks. Don't be racist in Germany; visitors can use phones to translate. Welcome to the 21st century.

The owner is very kind and has a lot of meat, and he prepares each piece right away! It took a long time, but it was the most delicious thing I had in Germany! (Especially than the beer bars near the dome!)

Unfortunately the menu is so minimized, schnitzel, knuckle...

Very good food, large portions. But we waited a long time and on top of that the man was a bit rude and rude, he made us uncomfortable.

Eating well. The chicken wasn't completely cooked. Loveless preparation. Lukewarm

Rustic Cologne restaurant with a traditional Cologne menu. Perfect and personal service. Plenty of food and super tasty at fair prices. Top!

Great traditional Kölner food, big portions served!

Top hospitality, great food for 28 people, a friendly welcome, thank you

Very nice place, excellent service and food! Wonderful beer.

Very famous place, but they don't have much variety of dishes. If you want sausages, this is not the place.

Kind and courteous. Nice location.

Embark on a culinary journey through the heart of Germany at Keule. Let's savor the rich flavors and hearty delights of traditional German cuisine, where every bite is a tribute to culinary excellence and cultural heritage. Join me for an unforgettable dining experience that celebrates the warmth of German hospitality and the joy of shared meals!

Simple menu with delicious dishes, unfortunately no children's meals, friendly and quick service

Very warm welcome, the person who welcomed us made the effort to speak a little French. The waiter was very cheerful, the food was good, we had a pleasant time, thank you to them.

Were there for dinner with the family on April 3rd, 2024. Food is very good. Service top notch. .

Please definitely order Schweinshaxe!!! Super tasty and crispy surface!!even better than what I eat in Munich, the restaurant famous for Haxe near Marienplatz!! Also very good service!

The pork knuckle is amazing. The portion in huge and it matches perfectly with the cabbage.

It was just lovely...the food was well prepared and the host was an original.

The waitress was very cute and sweet, and the uncle loved to wink. I ordered a beef roll with onions and sauerkraut inside, served with beets and two balls of mashed potatoes. It went well with Cologne beer. It was very comfortable to sit outside and look at the square!

The food was tasty but I had to wait for 45 mins. I also saw a women canceled her order and left because she couldn't wait any longer. So don't go there with an empty stomach :)) Also my food was 15.9€ in the menu, but I had to pay 18€ something. I was tired and didn't pay attention to it, and they didn't give me the bill, so I still don't know what they charged me for or it was a mistake.

Food, drink and service, everything at its best, I'll be a regular there

This restaurant is a must when visiting Köln. The food is delicious with large portion sizes, the atmosphere is always buzzing and the servers are friendly and helpful. English menus are available.

Highly recommended, very familiar, just convince yourself

Incredibly good roulade and dumplings! It was fantastic ❤️!

Super nice staff. Super tasty knuckle. It's best to share the knuckle between two people. With Kölsch... perfect.

Unfreundliches Personal, Preise + Gerichte werden nicht auf der Karte verfasst. Der Kunde wird damit konfrontiert. Angebote auf der Website stimmen nicht überein vor Ort. Personal ist nicht interessiert an einer Streitbeilegung.

Unfriendly staff, food was served that wasn't ordered, then I had to pay an overpriced price for it that wasn't justified. The dish and price were also not included in the menu. Employees also had no interest in dispute resolution. Thank you never again. I definitely advise against the place. It's better to look for other bars in the surrounding streets.

We received a friendly welcome, the service was nice and the food was good. We would be happy to come back.

The best German pork knuckles I have ever tasted, so fragrant and delicious, the skin is fried to a crispy texture and the texture is quite good. Two people can't finish a pig's trotter, so it goes perfectly with German sauerkraut and beer!

Always an experience of Cologne cosiness and hospitality.

Went there at carnival for a few Kölsch 🍻. Great service and great atmosphere. We'd love to come back next year 😉

The staff is super friendly and fun too. It was a good atmosphere and you'll be happy to come back

A great restaurant with really tasty 😋 kölsch food was also 😋 we didn't have a reservation although it was busy and we left in an hour. Kudos to the couple, the waitress was quick and friendly, the chef conjured up a great meal, thank you for the lovely evening

a super nice and friendly restaurant

Must have had a bad day today. 2 dishes (including a vegetarian dish) not available because, according to the waitress, they were not ready yet (4 p.m. in the afternoon). A salad we ordered was missing. Sorry, but there is still a lot of room for improvement.

Never eaten such a big knuckle before! If you like pork, this is the place for you! Haxtastic price performance!

The best pork knuckle in the world. Thank you very much

Had nice stuffed cabbage for lunch and my wife had trout fillet. We were both satisfied. There's nothing to complain about the price either.

What can I say, everything was just great. Food great, drinks great and all served by very attentive and friendly service. Thank you. We'll definitely come back.

Food was very tasty. Service was nice and very prompt. What really annoyed me and my company was the lack of the option to pay a joint bill separately by card. One can only speculate as to why this is the case (otherwise the tip would be too small), at least it is not pointed out in advance. Stupid situation for someone who pays almost exclusively electronically. Things simply have to be different these days!

The “Keule” brewery in Cologne, on the Heumarkt, is a top location. Quaint, cozy, delicious, perfect. My conclusion: highly recommended 🍻

Wonderful little brewery with very good service and tasty food. A TOP address in Cologne. Highly recommended and we will be back.

We had eaten heaven and earth. We enjoyed it, the portions are very large.

Alles gut gewesen, gerne wieder. War lecker und wir sind alle satt geworden 😉

Waren auf dem Weihnachtsmarkt in Köln. Sind hier eingekehrt um etwas zu essen. Ein schönes Ambiente und sehr lecker Speisen. Die Portionen waren gross genug um satt zu werden. Kommen gerne wieder.

Es ist ein typisches Kölner Restaurant mit langer Geschichte in historischer Lage. Wir haben mit einer Gruppe von 8 Personen einen schönen Abend verbracht und dabei das qualitativ gute und regionale Essen genossen. Die teilweise völlig inakzeptablen Kommentare auf diesem Bewertungsportal konnte ich auch bei wiederholtem Besuch nicht nachvollziehen. Der „ ältere Kellner“ hatte mit uns viel Spaß und war sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Kartenzahlung war möglich und die Reservieren über „ Open Table“ funktionierte problemlos. Das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis stimmt auch in diesen schwierigen Zeiten noch . Man sollte allerdings großen Hunger mitbringen da die Portionen sehr groß sind. Komme gerne wieder in dieses authentische Restaurant.

After enjoying gluhwein in Huemarkt Christmas Market my twin brother and I headed over to Keule ,been here many times over the years, always had a good time and so it proved on our latest visit. A nice big pub ,multi roomed, a solid wood serving bar dominates the main room, pubby decor and furnishings including plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub both inside and outside looking out onto the busy and beautiful Huemarkt Christmas Market, its just a great pub to unwind in. We sat outside were we ordered 0.4L of kölsch beer ,these were served in excellent condition being iced cold and sparkling, we chilled out and soaked up the great vibe in this busy and popular pub and the great Christmas market taking place. My beer was outstanding, a golden, light and hoppy lager style beer bursting with taste and very easy to drink, when this beer is served freezing cold as in this pub its such a refreshing beer indeed, hardly surprising that this pub is so popular with beers served in this good a condition. We really enjoyed our beers in here before we moved on and although our visit was only fleeting as on every other visit to Keule we had a great time Keule is easy to locate on Huemarkt, in my opinion the prettiest square in Cologne, a square and area teeming with pubs, bars, cafe's and restaurants and some amazing architecture. Opening hours are ; Monday to Sunday, open from midday. Well worth checking out if you're in the Old Town of Cologne.

Sehr rustikal und gemütlich. Essen war sehr gut und reichhaltig. Der Service freundlich und flink. Wir hatten dort einen sehr schönen Abend und werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen

My favorite restaurant on our two week trip through Germany. I had the schnitzel, my husband had the pork knuckle, it was huge! He could not finish it, but he wished he had more room cause he loved it. I loved the schnitzel. The beer was also excellent. We waited about 15 minutes and we were seated, then waited about 30 minutes for food. They don’t have english menus so be ready to use google translate or refer to my photos.

Keule on Heumarkt is an excellent pub and restaurant that offer's a fantastic range of food and drinks and was a really good pub and restaurant to start our day off. Keule has a magnificent interior with many interesting fixtures and features and great decor and furnishings and brilliant seating options both inside and outside. We visited here very early in the afternoon on a very pleasant day and as it was warm we sat outside were we had a few beers. When we visited here we had a few glasses of Gaffel Kölsch which where excellent and served in perfect condition and where well priced. This is a brilliant pub and restaurant that's in an excellent area of Cologne and worth visiting and is easy to locate from Rathaus tram/u-bahn stops it's a short walk. (This is my first review of Keule). Opening Hours. Monday-Sunday-12.00-Onwards. Hours May Differ From Above. Public Transport. Tram/U-Bahn Stop. Rathaus Tram/U-Bahn Stops-05.

Goeie eetgelegenheid met vriendelijke bediening. Schnitzel smaakt goed

Lecker im Kreise von Freunden gegessen,Essen lecker Bedienung freundlich und flott ein schöner Abend

Lecker, frisch und super Service!

Es un lugar acogedor , las porciones son generosas y la comida es buena El servicio de entrega de alimentos es tardado y los meseros tratan de ser agradables.

Gutes Essen, keine überhöhten Preise, fröhliches, gut gelaunten Personal. Man fühlt sich willkommen.

Ich habe einen Tisch reserviert und eine Reservierungsbestätigung erhalten. Als ich ankam, scheuchte mich die Kellnerin tatsächlich weg, ohne sich zu entschuldigen oder die Situation erklären zu wollen. Update 12/12/2023 Ich verstehe, dass die Reservierung App schuldig ist, aber ihre Kellnerin konnte netter sein. Sie konnte mich einladen fürs Restaurant andere mal besuchen oder “tut mir leid” sagen. Es war nur: “wir sind geschlossen, es gibt ohne Möglichkeit, dass du resserviert hast”.

The worst service and old staff, including the manager, who don't speak English or/& hate Asians)).
