Limburg Abbey in Bad Dürkheim

Auf der Karte findet sich eine raffinierte Interpretation von gut-bürgerlicher Küche, definitiv nicht (nur) der Pälzer Standard. Ich hatte die Kraftbrühe und das Wildgulasch. Beides sehr lecker!

Beautiful restaurant for both romantic and business occasions. Service was super nice, food was great. Gladly again

Today was the first and last time we were up here for the Advent brunch. As I said: I only rate the brunch. I didn't like it. You book through Eventtime. 75 euros for three without drinks, so around 120 euros for three. It's not worth it. It's incredibly loud down there because of the vault. It is still fresh despite long underwear and warm clothing. Then they wanted to seat us at a table with strangers. But that wasn't on the internet before. There were a lot of children and about 10 dogs there. It is very uncomfortable and loud. Because these annoying children kept coming to our table, our daughter and our dog felt provoked and it was just barking. We've never experienced this before and we go out to eat often. Yes, the food was ok for the price, nothing special. After we didn't want to sit at a table with people, we were seated next to a humming fan heater, which was then turned off after a complaint. The waitress said: Do you have it now? Hello ? There was nothing on the Internet about strangers at the table, otherwise we wouldn't have booked in the first place...Daughter orders cocoa, gets milk...all in all: save yourself the brunch...magic monastery, beer garden, restaurant, everything was great. We even got married up here 14 years ago. But the brunch? That was a waste of money and time. Parking: first come, first served...

We ate here for the monastery brunch. The food was very good, the service was quick and friendly 👍😉. As you write in the description, there is heating, but if you get cold easily you should dress a little warmer 😇.

We were very lucky to be able to celebrate our wedding at Konrad 2 and on the Limburg grounds. Apart from the weather, the day was really perfect. The rooms were prepared as discussed, the food was great and the service was quick and super friendly. The communication and meetings in advance were also very pleasant and constructive. Thank you also for the flexibility regarding the rooms in relation to the weather (we had to reschedule and “move” again at short notice due to a drop in temperature). We can only warmly recommend you and it certainly won't be the last time we'll be your guests.

We were there a few days ago and were initially totally impressed by the location. The restaurant definitely seemed fair to its surroundings. I'll now go into the classic pros and cons points that speak purely to our opinion :) Per: - Super nice staff - Location very nice - Food beautifully prepared - sufficient portions - There is actually a second helping which we found to be very good - the toilets were very clean - great marketing and promotions done by the operators Cons: - higher middle price range (which I think is partly due to the location) - The greeting when we arrived was rather dull and didn't seem inviting at first - The waitress ever mixed up and forgot an order once and when ordering again brought the larger bottle than the smaller bottle of water ordered (was also charged) - Unfortunately there were a lot of fruit flies everywhere in the room which made it difficult to eat in peace. - (personal impression) the taste was ok/good but not a taste highlight either. I have to say that this will be my favorite restaurant. - Unfortunately it was very quiet in the room where a bit of background music would have rounded the whole thing off a little better. All in all it was a very nice evening and therefore the constructively kind 4 stars :)

Very loud, food took a long time. At the end, the end of the workday was evidently indicated by loud tidying up

Very tasty and well eaten. Service very good 👍

Nice ambience and good food and beautiful surroundings of the Limburg monastery ruins

Beautiful castle complex! However, from October onwards it will only be open from Thursday.

Food great! Service can be left as is! Very cozy will go there again!

Rarely have I had such a good experience. From the ambience, the food to the service team, everything was great. Deodorant, hand cream, mouthwash with disposable cups, hand disinfectant and tampons were also freely available in the women's toilets. Deodorant and hair gel were also available in the men's toilet. Definitely recommended.

Interesting ruins, great restaurant. Parking spaces Very friendly staff and very good food, we had saumagen and pulled pork. Both great.

Great ambience and good food! Innkeepers friendly and nice! A place to feel good. A special highlight in summer is the outdoor area. Happy to come back!

Nicely decorated, friendly service, good selection on the menu. It was delicious too. Somewhat limited selection of desserts

The food was very tasty and nicely presented. Plus a good glass of wine and very nice service. A place to feel good.

I'm a vegetarian in everyday life, but I eat meat once or twice a year when I'm on vacation. The American pulled pork with monastery bread was perfectly prepared and seasoned. I would happily come back to eat this dish any time.

We only came up there for the ruins, we will come back to try the restaurant

We liked it very much. Very good service and delicious food. We'll be back.

Restaurantbewertung: Wir hatten für eine Gruppe von 12 Personen reserviert, erschienen jedoch schließlich nur zu zehnt. Gleich bei unserer Ankunft wurden wir unfreundlich darüber informiert, dass 25 Euro pro fehlender Person berechnet würden und dass man diese Angelegenheit, falls nötig, „vom Anwalt klären lassen“ würde. Ein derart harscher Empfang hat leider direkt einen negativen Eindruck hinterlassen und zeigte deutlich, wie wenig flexibel und kundenorientiert das Personal ist. Der Service ließ auch während des Aufenthalts sehr zu wünschen übrig. Zum Glück war das Essen wirklich gut und die Location ansprechend. Die Qualität der Speisen hätte durchaus für einen angenehmen Abend sorgen können, doch das Verhalten des Personals hat leider das gesamte Erlebnis getrübt. Schade – mit besserem Service könnte dieses Restaurant eine echte Empfehlung sein.

We finally wanted to eat at Konrad II again on September 22nd, 2024. However, only the outdoor area was open that day. The monastery in the background is magnificent. However, the furniture was thrown together and some of it was getting old. Dirty tables along the monastery wall. The food had to be ordered from a stand that resembled a kiosk. There were five of us. In addition to meat dishes and salad with fish, there should also be a tarte flambée with apple and cinnamon. The employee who took our order told my friend that this would no longer be available today and that she could order a "Greek-style" tarte flambée instead. I could hardly believe this because there can hardly be a simpler dish than a tarte flambée with apple pieces, and because the restaurant likes to present itself as one of the more upscale ones in Bad Dürkheim. Afterwards I visited the kitchen and asked the staff there. Here I was kindly informed that it would be no problem to get this tarte flambée. With this information, I made my way back to the waitress with one of the employees present in the kitchen. She then let me know that the other tarte flambée was already in the oven and that I had to eat it now. Change impossible! – Our order would be a misunderstanding, because a sweet tarte flambée would not go with the 4 savory dishes. Without the employee's blatant unfriendliness, one could have had the feeling of becoming an unwilling actor in a comedy. She then placed the apple and cinnamon tarte flambée on the end of the table opposite me. . After this experience, we will avoid this restaurant in the future, despite the great setting.

After a long walk, stop here and enjoy delicious Palatinate specialties. Simply heavenly.

A very nice and cozy restaurant with an ambience that matches the location. The food tasted very good and was served excellently on the platters.

We stopped here on our bike tour. Actually we just wanted to drink a small wine spritzer. After all the food that went out looked delicious, we also had dinner here. All three of us were very enthusiastic about the food. The food was beautifully prepared and very tasty. The ambience was very nice. There is a small deduction for service. The service staff could be a little friendlier.

Very expensive prices for drinks. usury

A very beautiful monastery ruin with a beer garden in the middle. The view is fantastic!

I always enjoy coming back to look, relax and enjoy the monastery ruins. A building with a 1000-year history and in the middle of it a very attractive (self-service) restaurant outside and inside. It tasted very good, it was very comfortable, I sat in a lounge. There are many shaded areas. The staff is quick and very warm/polite. The price-performance ratio is right. Absolutely recommended. You can also stay here longer.

Wir waren mittlerweile schon öfter hier (Innenbereich) und sind immer wieder begeistert. Das Essen ist sehr lecker (vor allem das American Pulled Pork) und der Service ist sehr nett, auch wenn's mal stressig ist. Das Ambiente ist einladend. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist ok. Immer wieder gerne und definitiv eine Empfehlung!

Very, very tasty food and great value for money! Very nice atmosphere and quiet location. Happy to come back!

Very good food, nice atmosphere in the ruins,

Great ambience of an enjoyable restaurant

We were supposed to be with a group of 12 people, but since one couple became ill with gastrointestinal illness at short notice, we decided to come with 10 people. Since a short-term cancellation (of just 10% of the guests!!!) is unfortunately not tolerated in the restaurant's terms and conditions, we had to pay the extremely high service fee. The two of them probably wouldn't have eaten that much once. This is not good behavior and so it was our last visit to the actually beautiful and very tasty restaurant. A pity!! It should also be mentioned that 2 of the service staff (not the one who served us at the table!) were incredibly unfriendly, they leave you standing in the middle of a sentence and roll your eyes... Absolutely out of place in the service. All in all, it was actually a great place, but the poor management and poor service ruined the mood at our family celebration. We definitely do not recommend the restaurant.

Nice ambience (outdoor area). Price/performance slightly excessive. Service is quick.

Very nice beer garden with good service. Unfortunately, I was a little unlucky with my food. The braised beef cheeks were very tough and a bit too fatty, the rest was okay. Maybe I'll have better luck next time. Everyone should get a second chance.

A very nice open air location for events.

We were in the region for vacation and discovered the restaurant. Very nice location, the service was very courteous and the food and drinks were very good and plentiful☺️ definitely worth a visit!

The Palatinate, great location in an old ruin, view over the Rhine plain, there is a nice outdoor business in the ruin and the restaurant, everything fits here, food is down-to-earth, tasty and very nicely decorated, service is nice and courteous, a little pearl Bad Durkheim

Home-style food, was very good / self-service; food is brought; Unfortunately the apple cinnamon tarte flambée was out, so a small deduction :-) Very nice and fast service in the old monastery ruins, you sit very nicely in an old monastery ruins, reservation is required in good weather

Very nice place with amazing views.

We celebrated our wedding at the Limburg monastery ruins. The event location is very suitable and recommended for larger events. We received good advice from the event manager and the process was great. The locations, the food and the supporting program were prepared as discussed and the service was also very professional. All in all, we had a really nice wedding celebration at the Limburg monastery ruins. Many thanks to the team and see you soon... Tati & Jens

We always enjoy coming here. Special atmosphere within the old walls. The menu is very broad, including dishes that you would expect in the Palatinate as well as dishes that are of a higher standard. Lovingly prepared.

A very historical place, The monastery pan is recommended

I celebrated my birthday there. The room was very nicely decorated. The service was very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious as usual. The location was of course unbeatable. A clear recommendation every time.

First of all, the atmosphere is really nice, it's really nice to sit there surrounded by old walls. Unfortunately, the staff is not very friendly, sometimes even snippy. The homepage says there is an allergen menu on site. When I asked, I was told with a laugh that it existed, but that it was no longer current. The lady also laughed at my gluten intolerance and dismissed it as “standard”. Afterwards there was a wishy-washy "should go/should be okay/shouldn't have anything in it" explanation of the card. This is completely unacceptable; especially the behavior of the staff. If we hadn't had the tickets for the Limburg summer, we would have gone again. People with allergies don't choose them, it's no fun and no laughing matter. No matter how nice the ambience is, we won't be able to eat anymore.

It was really worth discovering a lot

Very nice, well-kept castle tavern, great location. Good selection of drinks, delicious food. Enjoyed the sun outside in great weather. We'd love to come back!

Great location. Enjoy your meal. Price-performance ratio okay.

Very nice atmosphere, the service is first class and the food is really recommended (very tasty). There's nothing to complain about the prices either. We'd love to come back.

The beer garden was self-service. The prices were okay. The atmosphere is very romantic. The food was fresh and delicious. Gladly again.

Dinner was super delicious and fresh with good wine and excellent service this evening, we'll be back ♥️

The food is super delicious🤤Service is great))) Again and again😁

What a great restaurant. Great service, delicious food and a really nice atmosphere. I'll definitely come back when I'm in the area.

Wir waren im Aussenbereich gesessen. Hier bestellt man an der Theke. Essen wird dann serviert. Klappt ganz gut. Wir hatten Bowls mit Lachs und Falafel. Vorab den Ziegenkäse. Uns hat es sehr gut geschmeckt und das Ambiente war sehr schön

Delicious food 😋 Very nice attentive staff 👍🏻Great ambience 👍🏻Everything was great all around 👍🏻

It's really beautifully made and you feel comfortable

The monastery ruins are very cozy and the atmosphere is great. We drank Riesling spritzer. We didn't eat but the menu was promising. It is worth it ..

We were there today and it was a well-preserved ruin from the 11th century near Bad Dürkheim that was well worth seeing. you really have to go in and take in the huge walls and size of this facility. We were very impressed by this monument of history. A visit is definitely worth it because there is a restaurant and events

We have been coming here for a few years now and always enjoy this beautiful place, the good food and the hospitality. Is it because of the smoking nun in the guest room? We like it very much! We will definitely visit again next year. The two Swabians from near Augsburg

Very nice place to stop after hiking or to reach directly by car. Very friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Absolutely recommended.

Delicious food, friendly service, we'll be happy to come back.

Great schnitzels, delicious side dishes, very satisfied

Great ruin. Parking spaces directly at the restaurant. Beautiful beer garden. Delicious food and nice service. What more do you want? Thanks.

Top!! Very good food...prepared differently. Very creative. Highly Recommended.

Great location, delicious food, good spritzer. Unfortunately no smoking ban. Nevertheless, we like to go to Limburg.

We were in the beer garden. Tarte flambée, bowl and Palatinate plate were very good. The self-service was quite expensive ;-)

It's a shame that a potential for an exciting Mother's Day event was wasted by a wait time of almost an hour and half and a more than arrogant and unfriendly waiter. Part of the problem was not the number of people waiting, lack of personnel or a slow kitchen, but two waiters who spent more time hiding behind a van and smoking than bringing out food.

The Limburg Monastery is a former Benedictine abbey that existed from the 11th century until the Reformation. It is one of the largest and most important monuments of early Salian architecture. And it is also perfect as a place to take a break: the former cloister is home to one of the very few beautiful beer gardens in the Palatinate Forest. The atmosphere here in the former Gothic cloister is incomparable - and thankfully there is not only Saumagen and the Sieben Schnitzel - a rarity in the Palatinate Forest, which is often unfortunately rather underdeveloped in terms of hiking cuisine.

Very nice atmosphere, friendly and attentive staff. Beautifully prepared dishes, very tasty. All in all a successful destination to end the day. We would be happy to come back and then try out the special outdoor area.

We celebrated our dream wedding on the Limburg in Bad Dürkheim! Everything was perfect! Mr. Deutscher put a lot of thought into it and did everything he could to ensure we had an unforgettable celebration. The food was great, as was the ambience. We are more than satisfied! Keep it up!

Price ratio is not right. Corrective action should be taken here.

It was our first time there and due to the weather we sat inside in the cozy dining room. We had schnitzel (French fries delicious and cross as they should be) and the monastery bread with goat cheese, accompanied by a large fresh salad. The food was visually very appealing and tasty. The service was friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be back and are looking forward to the outdoor area.

Nice beer garden in the inner courtyard. I can't judge food yet. I like the castle ruins!

Unfortunately the service was rude, rude and a bit cheeky. The salad was good, but the baked bread didn't taste like anything! So the price-performance ratio is not right at all. The restaurant is only recommended because of the ambience, which is a shame...

They give you a table first and then ask you to go to a smaller table. There are a lot of empty tables. It's better to just look at the castle.

Were there yesterday, sat in the outdoor lighting. It started to drip, my husband came in and asked if they were putting up the umbrellas. Independently of us, a lady at the next table asked the same question and received the same answer. OK. Stupid, but that's how it is. Another group simply put up the umbrella. So we thought "Aha, if you ask too long, you'll be wrong" and put up an umbrella and the two ladies sat under it with us. Then, as if bitten by a tarantula, a male service worker came, put the umbrella down, muttered something very unfriendly about "The umbrellas are not self-service" and then opened the umbrella again.... In the meantime, a group he knew came shopping. The umbrella was immediately opened, something was said about the risk of injury and "then something would happen" Um... the probability of you tripping over something and falling into the glass that you have to remove yourself and getting injured is probably higher than that to put up an umbrella. Finally, I would like to say that we didn't just have a drink. The staff probably expected us to eat our food in the rain. The cuisine is expensive, so we expect respectful behavior. That was underground...

Very tasty food and very nice service. It's very nice to sit inside and outside.

Very nice restaurant, very tasty food and great staff. We recommend

Very nicely decorated restaurant with very tasty offers and a large selection of drinks! Service was super friendly! The bread there is amazing! Really highly recommended!

We were there last Thursday, under bright skies, sat outside and the service from the young, friendly waitresses (male and female) was very good. A perfect day in an atmosphere steeped in history. Lovely again!

Local, with a nice atmosphere, also outside seating, friendly staff. Medium price level

One thing in advance: I had a normal meal in the restaurant a few times last year and was thrilled every time. That's why I was really looking forward to the Easter brunch. However, I was even more disappointed. The quality of the food has nothing to do with that of the normal restaurant... it was simply cheap and bad. By “Palatinate-international gourmet dishes” I mean something different than, among other things, ready-made salads and pasta casseroles with peas. I couldn't even try some of the dishes because they quickly ran out and weren't refilled. Drinks were not included at all... not even juice or water, as you would find in much cheaper brunch offers. And to top it all off, the service was largely completely overwhelmed, which is why we had to wait 10-15 minutes in the rain before brunch before we even got to our table. I will definitely eat in the monastery ruins again, but the brunch was the first and last time - it's a shame!

We were there for Easter brunch today and were very disappointed. Very unfriendly, especially the boss, you weren't greeted very friendly nor were you said goodbye. For us, the food wasn't great for the money. Soup was cold, not much choice of hot dishes, rolls not fresh, no baguette or other bread or croissants. We paid for 3 hours and when we allocated space we were told only until 1:30 p.m., but we didn't want any longer. For us it was a letdown, when we talked to other guests they had the same opinion. A PITY!!!!

Very nice beer garden with an unusual menu and very good wines. That was our last review. Because we are often satisfied guests in the monastery ruins, we invited our family to brunch. It was a huge disappointment. The reception alone was very slow and we had to wait on the stairs in the rain until we got in. Our table (second meal time) wasn't really newly set. Since we like to take our time during brunch, some pots were empty and were not refilled even after we asked. Unfortunately, the otherwise good dishes are not available at brunch. The worst was a pasta bake. We all agreed that the restaurant would have been the better choice.

Blackboards in a 1,000-year-old wall: crazy... 😮

Unfortunately I have to agree with the previous criticism. It was very crowded (too crowded for the room). It was cramped and confusing at the buffet, which was really disappointing. The quality of the food was simply not adequate for the price. Dessert consisted, among other things, of thawed donuts and Berliners like you would find in the discount store...it just didn't fit. You can then pay extra for drinks on top of that. BUT: basically a really great location, but unfortunately this time it went completely wrong A pity

We paid a lot of money for Easter brunch and were hugely disappointed. The photos and reviews so far have suggested delicious food. It was a tiny buffet with really poor quality food. There were 5 of us and together we found the bread and the cheese spaetzle tasty, everything else was really not good. In addition, it was extremely cold in the basement, despite the radiant heater. No water, no juice, nothing was included in terms of drinks and overall it was a buffet, which could have been done much better. It would also be good to point out that it is difficult for people with walking difficulties to reach the rooms.

We actually just wanted to look at the Limburg monastery ruins, but we noticed this fine restaurant. Although we only ordered Kaiserschmarrn and vanilla ice cream with hot berries, both dishes were very tasty. The staff was very friendly and the facility was well done. We will definitely come back and would recommend both the restaurant and the monastery ruins and the surrounding area for hiking. recommend.

A sensational spot. A trip here is definitely worth it. We weren't in the restaurant, so I can't write anything about it. Certainly a great location for an event. I made a note of it.

We have never been dissatisfied with the Konrad2. On the contrary: the food, service and ambience are excellent! We always enjoy coming back.

Many hiking trails to the ruins, there are enough parking spaces nearby.

The monastery ruins can be visited free of charge. Parking spaces available directly in front, otherwise accessible via hiking trails. Beautiful atmosphere. There are a few park benches with views of the region below and a small garden with sculptures. Restaurant not visited.

Beautiful monastery ruins, freely accessible. Beautiful hiking tours in the area.

The food was simply great. The staff were very friendly and attentive. We'd love to come back

Charming place with a beautiful view of Bad Dürkheim. The hike leading to the ruins is very nice to do.

Food too expensive for the quality. Service nice. Would like prices that don't fit. Oh now the crop should be deleted. Sorry for the little on the plate, the long wait even for drinks, it's not worth the money. Especially since we still had to sit on uncomfortable wooden benches.

Great destination for hiking and to recover from the exertions afterwards. All dishes are lovingly prepared and very tasty. Given the size of the portions, you'll get fit again very quickly 💪🏻 Definitely worth a visit!

Great atmosphere, even better in summer when you can sit outside. Really good food and very friendly service, we always like to come back.

Hike of about 4km and the same way back, we were there on Tuesday, so everything was closed. But it's remarkable, the ruins, the view
