Klosterhof Knechtsteden in Dormagen

Very friendly staff. Good food at good prices

After renovation, dogs are prohibited. The restaurant manager (or owner?) loudly rejected us. He kept tapping the sticker on the front door. Arrogant and unyielding - he didn't care that we had to walk a long time to get there. We won't go there again and many visitors with dogs will lose them in the restaurant.

We ate there with our children and our dog. My mixed salad with turkey strips, mushrooms and yogurt dressing was very tasty. The portion size was decent. My husband had roast pork with a delicious dark sauce and fried potatoes. He also enjoyed it very much. The children ate a baked potato with quark and a children's schnitzel with fries. They were probably ok. The service was very friendly. Our large dog was also welcome. The price for these four dishes with 5 drinks of around 75 euros was great! Really recommended!

Delicious food and good monastery beer. Also dog friendly. 😊

Great restaurant in an old-fashioned atmosphere. The service was really really good. Very friendly and nice and can't be beaten in terms of speed

Vegetarian food was very tasty, service was attentive and quick

The “ox shreds” are very tasty!

The food was simply great, the service was super nice. If you like good home cooking you are in very good hands here.

We spent a very nice evening with 7 people on Saturday evening. Nobody knew about this beautiful location before. Fact we'll be back. The food ambience and very nice service convinced us. Thanks

Great restaurant. Really nice and attentive staff. We were there as a group of 13 people. With 2 events running at the same time and a full house. You didn't notice it. TOP! Food was on point and delicious. I'd love to come back.

The menu is extensive and there is something for every taste. The food was served by friendly staff, was plentiful and tasted very good to us. A table reservation is recommended as the restaurant was very busy. We have eaten in the restaurant several times and have always been very satisfied. In summer there is also a beautiful beer garden in front of the monastery tavern.

Very nice building with nice, attentive staff.

New start, new luck. This time it was very nice, the service was good and the food also gave little cause for criticism. Keep it up!

The food was OK. A lot of effort has been made to respond to wishes and intolerances. But there wasn't enough sauce and that certain something was missing. The service was mercilessly overwhelmed. A waitress spilled drinks on people/jackets at the neighboring table, orders were forgotten and mixed up, but people were always friendly. The ambience was great.

First of all, I really like the atmosphere there. The service staff are also really friendly. But the food... I ordered the apple fritters. The plate was very nicely presented. However, everything was convenience. Which I can excuse if it were good. But when I tried the apple fritters, I almost spontaneously spit them out. Which was because they were baked in French fries fat. The friendly waitress confirmed this to me at the end because she asked in the kitchen. That wouldn't be an oversight, it would always be done that way. Okeeee... We then got a refund.

Great location. Ideal for private celebrations. Delicious food, nice conditions

The whole goose was great for 4 people. Price/performance great.

I can only report on the goose, it was very good including the side dishes. Gladly again, then a different dish. 👍

Wonderful! First-class goose food in a feel-good atmosphere. Top condition!

We went on a day of hiking to Knechtsteden Monastery and spent some lovely hours.

Always my pleasure. We always eat delicious food. Nice service. Nice ambience. Be sure to eat dessert too!

Very nice service, everything is right. The classic tarte flambée with rocket was delicious. The price-performance ratio for the tarte flambée is ok. I don't think schnitzel is ok because they are finished products and not prepared by myself.

Very tasty food with friendly waiters

Uns hatte die Gänsekarte und die durchgehend warme Küche gelockt. Da ich Gänsefan bin, wollte ich unbedingt die Gänsebrust probieren. Der dazu gereicht Rotkohl und die Maronen & Klöße waren unspektakulär. Die Gänsebrust war echt fad und hat nach Tiefkühltruhe geschmeckt. Wirklich nicht lecker. Die Sauce hat es auch echt nicht mehr rausgerissen. Wir werden zum Essen NIE wieder zum Klosterhof Knechtsteden kommen. Schade ums Geld und die in Kauf genommene Anfahrt.

Unfortunately too many frozen products.

I've been there several times, it's a very nice atmosphere to spend time in. And the monastery church in the background.

Invites you to take a walk and linger, shop and a good home-style restaurant, best to reserve at the weekend *****

We had a nice sit in the beer garden and the food was great

Very nice area and the beer tastes really good

Poor conditions and treated unkindly.

Took a short break in the beer garden on a bike tour. The service is quick and attentive. The black tastes really good.

Great and absolutely recommended! Lots of space for lots of people with a great atmosphere. There were 16 of us there in the late afternoon (along with a group of seniors and a group of business people). The service is very friendly and accommodating. I had a very, very good schnitzel with fried potatoes and onion and pepper cream and I am more than satisfied. Everything fresh, homemade and without a microwave 👌🏻I was a bit jealous of my neighbor at the table because he had the Knechtsteder black beer onion roast. It looked very good and was said to have tasted fantastic. Here you eat well, comfortably and therefore noticed as a "go-to place"!!!!!👏🏻

I was invited to a wedding there. The entire area is simply perfect. The food was also very tasty. What was somewhat unfortunate was that the service staff had been newly increased and 3 out of 5 had their first day at work. Therefore 1 star deducted

Very nice beer garden. Very good parking options. The tarte flambée is a dream. Very freshly made. Service and waitresses very nice. Always worth a trip there.

Nice restaurant with friendly staff and a simple menu.

Very tasty food! We had 2 different tarte flambées and schnitzel and were very satisfied. We were served quickly and friendly. I liked the atmosphere. My English partner tried black beer for the first time and was very impressed.

The 200g currywurst was very good. The black beer anyway. Always a nice stay, usually on a bike tour

Everything was very tasty. Simple but good beer garden and plenty of parking spaces available.

Very nice beer garden with delicious food. Attentive and friendly service. I'll be back!

The restaurant is nicely laid out and has a beautiful beer garden that is always well attended. The service is good and fast. The food is very tasty and plentiful. Everything makes a very neat and clean impression. Gladly again....

I have no idea what the restaurant is like, but it is definitely recommended as a venue for weddings and other large groups. The only negative point: not barrier-free. With all the love for historical places, that's why I deducted a star.

Very nice beer garden with a TOP selection. The tarte flambées were very large and richly topped (a bit greasy). Service could be a little more attentive -> wipe the table and pay. It's a great place to stop off!

Schön gelegen, schönes Haus, ansprechend eingerichtet, freundliche Bedienung. Die Essenspreise sind total überzogen und die Qualität dem in keiner Weise entsprechend – sehr schade um den schönen Ort.

The food is great as is the ambience, service could be there more often to take orders and clear tables. I think it's very great.

Nicely located in a monastery complex. Seems improvised in a former small barn. Drinks and snacks were offered.

Stop in the beer garden. Even though it was very full, we were served quickly and the drinks and food came to us surprisingly quickly. Great. Nice personel. The food was very good, price/performance within the green range. Tragic: How do I get the delicious black beer at home?

Good cuisine and very friendly staff. The guest is also happy with this.

Nice atmosphere and good food 👍

Very nice staff, really delicious food and the beer garden is very beautiful and has great plants all around. We will be back definitely!

Very beautiful there. There is in the area of ​​the Knechtsteden monastery. C. 3 minutes walk. A free car parking space. In front of the entrance to the beer garden. Is it possible to have a bike with & without an E? To be parked there. And complete. You can eat & drink inside in the restaurant. As well as outside in the beer garden. In good warm weather. Is it outside in the beer garden. Fri - So it is advisable to book a table in advance. Good menu. There are 16 dishes on it. Delicious. Everything is freshly prepared. Larger drinks menu with & without alcohol. Top staff. Very clean separate toilets. Very much so recommend.

Overall, nice monastery complex with high school, monastery shop not my thing, as there are too many sacred objects

Unfortunately it was very noisy. Food was average. Service was good.

Prices are ok, the steak was too English medium for me, although that's a matter of perspective

Delicious food in nice weather and with friendly service. That's how it should be !

The food was excellent, the service was quick and friendly. We will definitely come back 😊

Nice stopover for cyclists. Good food and the Knechtsteden black is wonderful! Not too bitter and rather malty.

Despite continuous opening hours and nice weather last Saturday, the beer garden was not served. You could get something yourself at the counter, but that ended at half past four. In order to get something, you then had to go to the restaurant. In my opinion, there were enough service staff there - just not deployed "sensibly". An overwhelmed force who had to tap, collect and pass orders on foot to the kitchen while a handful of colleagues watched.

We sat outside, that already has one nice beer garden-like cosiness. Good, but not unmanageable, selection of food, so that you can definitely count on the freshness and quality of the products can hope. Food tasted good, service was friendly, but... unobtrusive, just as you wish. We will repeat.

Cozy beer garden and attractive indoor dining. The service is very friendly and quick and the food is very tasty. Here you can get a delicious monastery beer. There is a large parking lot and you can also take a break here during a bike tour.

The traditional cuisine is wonderful and of good quality. Incredibly nice staff. Completely satisfied

Very nice. Food delicious. Portions OK. Nice beer garden.

I think it's really good as an employee. You get good food, the young boss is really nice, you are treated well.

What you expect is fulfilled, but nothing more.

Nice beer garden with friendly service and an ugly menu.

Drank delicious beer on a nice bike ride

Eat calmly and relaxed. And then look at the monastery churches. A calm and cleanliness.

Delicious food and very good and friendly service.

We went for lunch on Saturday, May 11. It took them a long time to serve us, normal if only one person takes note. First they serve the drinks, and then the dishes arrive, all at the same time. The food is good and well cooked, but the Rumpsteaks come alone, and the sides are very expensive. The own dark beer is very good.

Very great location. Unfortunately, if you are not registered, you have to expect waiting times. Like all restaurants, there is a lack of staff. But the food makes everything better.

Ein Besuch des Klosterhofs schließt den vorherigen Rundgang durch die Klosteranlagen bestens ab. Bei gutem Wetter sollte man in der schönen Außengastronomie Platz und sich Zeit nehmen, zu verweilen. Die Speisekarte bietet für jeden Geschmack Gerichte an und die wissen nicht nur optisch, sondern auch geschmacklich absolut zu überzeugen.

Yes, I sat and ate in the outdoor restaurant. Nothing to complain about, very attractive inside too

We went there spontaneously with our friends, everything was full, we got a table after a short wait, the food was good and the service was very friendly

We went to lunch in the monastery courtyard unannounced with a large group. The service was on point. Everything went smoothly. The food is delicious and there is plenty on the plate. I had a bockwurst with a fresh potato salad. Great value for money. Service top. Ambience great. Recommended!

The Klosterhof Knechtsteden restaurant is a fairly large restaurant spread over several rooms. It offers space for many guests. Nevertheless, it seems rustic and cozy. There is also a large outdoor area in front of the restaurant. The menu includes a wide range of home-style dishes. Since we were a larger group, a lot of dishes were ordered and eaten. The opinions were all very positive. The food plates were plentiful and the price-performance ratio was reasonable. There is also a good selection of vegetarian/vegan dishes. The service is quick, attentive and friendly. The gentlemen in the group were enthusiastic about the black beer and cellar beer 😊. Since the restaurant is fully booked, especially on weekends, despite its size, you should make a reservation.

Well, it was stupid for the staff, there were 2 celebrations, a wedding and a graduation party. I was a guest at the graduation party, but the staff apparently helped me for a wedding guest. Now the incompetent bartenders were arguing about which glass the ordered beer should be in and pouring it Beer from one glass to the other..... 7 times 😑 Then the waitress came and said "it doesn't matter, they don't notice anymore, they're too drunk" everyone laughs and looks at me and the other conditions mean "not the wedding Guests we mean the drunks with the DJ" I didn't say anything, who knows what they would have done with my drinking otherwise.

I can only recommend a very beautiful monastery! Landscape and architecture are worth the trip, nice staff and a lot of history 😊

Very tasty food (mustard roast) Service was attentive and nice. Recommended

Euphoria was too great....beer garden well...!!!

We just rode our bikes here on Saturday afternoon. We've been waiting for the Klosterbräu for 45 minutes. Apparently there is a lack of staff; but what is present is not present. Never again!

A visit is informative and simply beautiful for young and old. A complete property and playgrounds 👍👌

We stopped there on a bike tour in the best weather. Only half of the tables were set up outside that day. But it was communicated very well that this was due to a lack of staff. 👍 So we drank and ate something inside. Food top, service top, cellar beer top top top 😎

Very nice restaurant near the monastery. Nice service! We didn't eat anything, but we sat outside in the beer garden.

We waited too long for service and finally left. The cake selection was also very limited and the pieces looked very small. A pity!

It's good to sit in the restaurant, fast and friendly service. Delicious food.

Very disappointed! The food mediocre! Service was friendly though! The atmosphere is dirty and loveless! Above all the outside catering was terrible! The flies from last year were still in the menu display case! What a shame about the beautiful property!

Very cozy and very, very nice staff. So everything's great

Hier bekommt man ein 08/15-Essen. Geschmacklos, ungefähr wie Kantinenessen. Muss man nicht haben. Die Räume waren nicht geheizt, man musste schon mit Mantel und Schal während des Essens sitzen.

Anyone who values ​​good food is in good hands here! I chose the Rhenish Sauerbraten and that was a good decision! Delicious and a real recommendation, they even add sauce! The service was friendly and attentive 👍

It was a very nice family celebration with very good food and very nice and friendly service. Again and again. Thank you for the beautiful day.

Super tasty food, very homely. 😋 Reasonable portions. After ordering, the food came quite quickly. As time went on, it became more crowded, so our plates were only partially cleared away, the rest were picked up after about 30 minutes. There are worse things. We (work colleagues) found it cold in the room. We will be back definitely. 👍🙂

The monastery with gardens is worth seeing. The inn with beer garden is excellent. The whole thing was great again and always happy, just for your delicious beer.

I liked the interior and the atmosphere. The food was good but I didn't want to go twice because the choice is a bit limited. The staff were friendly. The only problem is that it closes very early, so being rushed to finish one's food, tarnishes the whole occasion, as well as a poor range of spirits. I would probably go again if I was within walking distance. Nice but limited.

Nettes, uriges Restaurant mit leckerem Essen. Macht allerdings in der Woche schon früh zu, so dass man je nach Ankunft nicht so lange verweilen kann.

Es war sehr kalt im Restaurant. Wir (6 Personen) fühlten uns nach dem Essen sehr genötigt, etwas zu bestellen bzw. das Lokal zu verlassen, obwohl das Lokal nur 1/4 besetzt war.

Mindestens einmal im Jahr geht es zum Gänseessen in den Klosterhof!

Nettes Ausflugsziel. Gute Speisekarte, leider lange Wartezeiten. Nehmen leider zu viele Gäste an für zu wenig Personal, welches trotzdem noch sehr freundlich ist. Habe deswegen einen Stern von meiner früheren Bewertung abgezogen.

Sehr nettes Restaurant mit authentischen Gerichten

Beste Gans weit und breit. Nur ein wenig laut dort.

Gänseessen im Klosterhof ,super gut!! Sehr leckere Soße dazu.Einfach TOP

Es war super. Einen so leckeren Sauerbraten habe ich lange nicht gegessen. Die Weinempfehlung dazu war perfekt. Das Personal ist freundlich und sehr aufmerksam. Ein gemütliches Lokal mit attraktivem Preisleistungsverhältnis
