MACELLUM in Münster

Too crowded old fashioned coffee and icecream shop

We went there for dinner during the week, the service is really not good on some days, but the food is fantastic. My special recommendation is the fried goat cheese. I've never had such a delicious salad with a great dressing, and the other dishes also taste really good.

We had a great time in this restaurant. The reception was perfect: despite the crowds, the team remained friendly and attentive. We were particularly pleased that we were spontaneously offered water for our dog - a very appreciated gesture. On the culinary side, we enjoyed a generous and perfectly fried veal liver, accompanied by a delicious homemade puree. And the baked pumpkin strudel. A wonderful combination of taste and generous portions. And for dessert an apple strudel, delicious! A place we can highly recommend for both the quality of the service and the dishes.

The best ice cream in town! And also very, very tasty, freshly baked cake. But what surprised me a bit negatively is the price for a waffle (without everything!) to go: €5.90. In my opinion that can hardly be justified.

Even though it was very full, there were still places with the note "can do it in 45 minutes" after which it was reserved.

Extensive range of ice cream, unfortunately only described as medium good, but served in a friendly manner.

Nice service, but the toilets were so dirty, ladies had no toilet paper, so it looked disgusting today at 2 p.m

Very nice restaurant with good and tasty food and drinks. Friendly and attentive staff! Was a guest twice and everything was always great.

Very nice, small "Italian", with delicious ice cream and small dishes.

The spaghetti ice cream was absolutely excellent, served in a waffle bowl. The organic coffee and cake was also very good. Very nice atmosphere (interior)

Pleasant..feel-good place..great food..with friendly staff..and you already have your food on the table...it's noticeably GOOD🫴🏻💛..I like being there...sometimes alone...you're seen ...and that has great value!!

The food was really tasty. The staff was also friendly and helpful. Very happy again. LG

Everything is great. Service outstanding, thoughtful and charming. Seasonal delicacies The ice cream is incredibly good. The waffle is made in-house. 5 everywhere!!! STARS!

It was okay but the waitress was very unfriendly and told us before we finished drinking that we should please leave because there were several people waiting

Service is terrible. We ordered ice cream at the counter, wanted to sit down to eat it, got send away because we ordered it "to go". Middle of the week loads of empty tables. We were told that if you order ice cream when you sit down it's another price. They were very rude about it. Just place a sign at the ice cream counter and all this can be avoided.

Very nice location in the middle of the city with terrace. Foreign owners with a good sense of fast service The dishes are not cheap but freshly made and of good quality The ice cream is also homemade but very sweet. So choose the least sweet varieties. So I wouldn't choose strawberries or raspberries. The best ice cream is without a doubt the Pina colada, but that flavor is not always available.

Beautiful location with incredibly unfriendly staff throughout

Good shop with a varied menu. Friendly service. The prices are ok.

Delicious ice cream, especially the men's cream variety. However, I got a stomach ache afterwards. Possibly not perfectly cooled. A bit unfriendly service and pretty busy and chaotic inside.

Nice food and OK prices. But the service, or better the lack thereof... Very rude, lazy staff

I had Rocher and Pistachio flavors and I didn't like either. Clearance. As a stranger, I wanted to try a variety that is typical of the area, but I was denied that. It's nice to sit here in front of the restaurant

The ice cream portions are very large, the cocktail is cold with ice. What else do you need on a hot day in a beautiful city? 😉

It was reasonably priced at 1.7 euros per scoop, and there was a wide variety. It was generously portioned. The cherry and yogurt ice cream had so much cherry in it that it was very delicious.

A lovely place to enjoy! We have been regular customers for years and always receive a friendly welcome and service. The ice cream is great, the location is great. We are already looking forward to the next visit. Personally, I can't understand all the bad reviews. Decency should dictate that you don't sit down at the restaurant table with someone else's food and also consume something there while using their toilet.

Very nice and attentive service, everything tasted super fresh and I think the menu has a very good and balanced selection. I had a tarte flambée and my companion had a porcini mushroom pasta dish. The tarte flambée dough was perfect, the sour cream was a little undersalted, the topping could have been a little more generous but I thought the price was very fair. I think I'll be checking out more often now for the changing lunch specials :)!

Unfortunately, very unfriendly service and for a starter about 10 euros... I still have to get used to it.

We had pistachio ice cream there in the evening... you can't give that many stars. Undyed, .. a pleasure that is second to none, lace. I can't rate the rest of the restaurant... because we had our ice cream in the cup on hand. But next time we visit MS we will visit this restaurant again.

Nice ice cream cafe in a central location and friendly service

Sat down and got kicked out while enjoying a piece of cake bc we ordered at the counter. Thought the two employees were somewhat rude .

Great ice cream, special flavors, recommendation of Venezia and children's chocolate, friendly owners and great atmosphere. Recommended, gladly again!

I ate king prawns - the size and cooking points were very good. A bit expensive maybe :)

This ice cream parlor really deserves an award! Namely for the ice cream parlor with the worst service in all of Münster. I can't remember being served and treated in such a derogatory and unfriendly manner in recent years as during our visit yesterday. The billing receipt was literally thrown on the table. That wasn't spit on afterwards was everything. The same happened to the neighboring tables. The fact that this ice cream parlor can survive is entirely thanks to its good location. I am ashamed of all the tourists who come there and have such bad experiences in our beautiful cathedral. A real shame! Since the management does not respond at all to negative reviews that have existed for years, there seems to be no interest in changing anything about this situation. I doubt how the 4.1 stars came together here.

We ordered ice cream. Wow: 3 scoops with some cream and a few raspberries 8 euros?? Already steep. But very tasty!! My son's 2 scoops of ice cream for 4 euros were also very tasty. The ambience outside was ok, but not particularly nice or comfortable. A little too narrow, the table is wobbly and a bit old. But the service was very child-friendly and quick! I really appreciate it!!

Eminem small but very fine main menu as well as 5-6 daily dishes. Everything was very tasty, I had the spicy penne one evening and my companion had the panzerotti. Both very tasty. At lunch we both had chanterelle risotto, which was delicious to eat. A must stop for further visits to Münster. A slight deduction in service, no pepper was offered and they were a little less present than desired. But very friendly

Hello reader, Last year we had a lovely dinner on the terrace. Today we ate super delicious ice cream on the terrace. #recommended Kind regards, Marian

Top ice cream and the price is totally OK. Instead of glass bowls, there are bowls made from homemade waffles

Unfortunately, the service (several waiters!) left more than to be desired. You can tell that the focus is not on guest satisfaction but on getting large numbers of customers through - with the location they can probably “afford it”. We were moved to a smaller table in a very rude manner and served breakfast quickly and carelessly, even though it wasn't even very full. Another big disadvantage of mass processing is that the tables are so close together that you breathe in the cigarettes from the tables to the left and right and are surrounded by smoke while eating. Maybe okay for takeout, but definitely won't go there again.

Let some guests use the toilet, others not. Impossible behavior.

Very tasty ice cream, excellent service and a nice ambience. We'd love to come back.

10 minutes before closing time, the service team packed up all the tables and chairs. I asked if I could order an ice cream on hand, which was answered in the negative. I pointed out the opening times and the waitress told me that she worked 7 days a week and that she could take a day off early and then went on to put the chairs together. A pity.

Delicious spaghetti ice cream with fresh fruit. Tasty coffee

Today, when it was 30 degrees in the city, the two of us got a table for four people in the said location. The waiter promptly asked us to only sit at a table for two people. It has to be said that the terrace was only a quarter full. When we asked whether there were so many more guests to be expected at this time of day, we were simply told that it was impossible to see clearly. We then agreed to take another table, where it was much more stuffy. After another discussion with the waiter, we decided not to throw our money at the restaurant and then moved on to Kleiner Kiepenkerl. There we received very friendly service and a warm welcome. There the customer is still king.

We drank coffee and ate ice cream here. It was good.

The food was very tasty. The restaurant is nicely decorated and the service is courteous and quick. I can also highly recommend the ice cream.

I have been going to Macellum alone, with family members or friends for more than 10 years. For my wife and me, the best service team (even without Luis) and one of the best kitchens (solid understatement)! Whether à la carte, dishes from the daily menu or even house recommendations… everything is first class! Here we feel welcome, considered as guests and extremely well looked after! Thanks for the many lunches and evenings :)

Nice location with a good view of the cityscape. There is a lot to complain about... Tables and chairs are much too close together and some of them are not accessible for strollers, wheelchairs and older people

No visit to Münster without a really delicious scoop of men's cream ice cream in a cone. I haven't eaten there yet.

Ice cream was delicious, service unfortunately corresponded to the rating…

Today I was with my pregnant friend to drink something, and she had taken a small snack with her without knowing that there it was not allowed. One of the employees approaches and tells us in the most unpleasant and ironic way possible that here you are not allowed to eat something that you have taken yourself , because this is a restaurant.He was talking laudly making sure that other customers close to us to listen. It was one of the most unpleasant ways anyone has ever spoken to me.Maybe I don't know the rules because I was only there to drink something and of course I apologized for our mistake, but the staff could have found a nicer way to react to this situation without having to ruin our day.

€1.70 for a scoop of ice cream to take away? Are you crazy?

I'm really shocked! We ordered our ice cream “on hand” and because I was heavily pregnant, we spontaneously decided to sit down. Despite the fact that it was obvious that I was heavily pregnant, three waiters came to our table within 10 minutes and rudely pointed out to us that we were not allowed to sit there with the ice cream we had brought ourselves from the counter. We were even asked if we had already paid. We explained that we didn't know this because we weren't from Münster and were sitting here for the first time. The third waiter then “disgusted” us away, so we left. I find it very sad and also angry that a pregnant woman is shown so little understanding at this moment! We will definitely never go here again!

Simply relaxing atmosphere, with great ice cream and cappuccino. Thanks

We came here spontaneously and were asked to sit at a small table to wait for a free table. The service and the appetizers were so great that we skipped the big table and preferred more antipasti. Aperol and Primitivo were excellent. We felt very comfortable, the staff was very friendly and attentive. Absolutely recommended for us!!!

Nice employees, interesting and delicious ice cream creations. The only small downside is the Preus per ball, but since the quality is very good, I'm willing to pay for it.

Cool ice cream and friendly service

It was very crowded and there was a wait for the available seats. But the waiter had everything under control very well, respect! It was also worth it because of the ice cream ;)

I dropped an ice cream. I immediately got a new one without any discussion. This has to be mentioned because unfortunately it is not handled so accommodatingly everywhere!

Ice cold and unfriendly! After we received our ice cream in a cone from a lady, we were immediately rudely told that we were not allowed to sit down with it. We hadn't planned on doing that, even though at 11:30 a.m. almost all the seats inside and outside were free. You rarely experience an ice cream parlor this frosty in May!

It is not possible to order a strawberry cup with just vanilla ice cream. Waiter Sahra constantly passes us.

Very delicious ice cream. The portions are enough, I tried one ball of stracciatella and One banana split. I enjoyed them a lot!

Very fast service and very tasty ice cream.

Great location, it was nice there

Soooo delicious ice cream! We sat nicely in the sun. Fast service. Super friendly and also highly recommended: dark ice cream. Never thought it could be so delicious, creamy, not too bitter, just great!

Super nice service, delicious food, prices okay...what more could you want, highly recommended

I'm really shocked! Yes, I know, everything has become more expensive, but that's an absolute disgrace, 40 cents for a teaspoon of sprinkles isn't possible!

Ice cream was delicious - stars for service

Very tasty food, very nice and attentive service!

Friendly staff, modern restaurant annex ice cream bar. Tasty apple pie Nice terrace, partly in the sun but sunscreens are available. Toilets available on the lower level, reachable from inside the restaurant.

We happened to pass by and had some ice cream here. Everything was good and tasty all around!

We were sent away with the words: I really don't see how funny this is, after we ate the ice cream we ordered on hand at a table. Instead of simply pointing out to us that there are different prices for take-away or eating there

Can be built, tastes like magic.

Nice enough to take a break, drink a delicious coffee or enjoy ice cream and cake.

Yesterday we had our first meal with our gaming group. All 11 were very satisfied. The staff very funny and attentive. The food is fresh and very tasty. We come from Dortmund and are looking forward to the next time. LG. Hans Steer Dortmund

A nice restaurant/ice cream parlor. The staff is very nice and the ice cream tastes great!

Very friendly staff, nice atmosphere, the food was served promptly, the sweet potato gnocchi with sage and the pancake with Serrano ham are highly recommended.

After today I am motivated to write a short review. Some of the staff were unfriendly and just wanted to "handle" the customer. Questions were answered rudely and you didn't really feel welcome. When we didn't want the receipt after paying, it was simply thrown on the table. We took it with humor but it's not customer-friendly. The ice cream was quite good.

The ice cream tasted quite good

Unfriendly staff, I didn't feel welcome at all.

You are only welcome here if you are over 70 and have no kids or want to laugh

We went to Macellum spontaneously and luckily got a free table outside. The employee quickly came to our table and took the order. Our food was very tasty! For dessert we ordered ice cream, which was delicious. The staff are very friendly and try to ensure that the guests don't miss anything.

When asked, my two-year-old child was not allowed to use the toilet because we were not customers. I then offered to buy some ice cream. Even then it wouldn't be possible. The use of the toilet is only permitted for table guests. I can probably understand it with adults, but not allowing even small children to do it - despite the offer to buy it - is outrageous and absolutely anti-social behavior to me. We live in the city and have been regular guests; However, after this experience I will not go here again.

Today we had tagliatelle with shrimps and a mixed salad with fried goat cheese. The prawns were as juicy as I have rarely had and the lobster sauce with fresh green pepper was a delight! My wife rarely eats beyond her hunger, but the goat cheese couldn't be left behind even in the slightest...😅 Thank you very much, we enjoyed it very much! The delicate espresso just rounded it off!

Totally rude. We have already bought and are not allowed to go to the toilet (maybe because we look very young) it is carnival and that is what people need. When we come in we even have to throw our food (we even bought it from him). It's just racism (I'm Asian) and just underrated us at the same time. I've been here several times and now I'm never coming back

The food was very tasty and the atmosphere was very nice. I ordered a lactose-free latte macchiato with caramel syrup and was laughed at by the waiter. I am very disappointed with the service. Unfortunately only 1 star.

The cake was tasty (although a bit small). Well attended - but no waiting time

Inexpensive and delicious cocoa. Working sockets for commuters are available.

We had a seat by the window, the food was very good and the service would be nice again 👍👍

As always everything was great!

My visit was marred by the condescending manner of a waiter. He claimed that my son's wheelchair was blocking his path, when in reality this was not a real disability. Finally I got up and left because I felt discriminated against. It's disappointing to encounter a lack of empathy in a place that should be equally welcoming to everyone.

We were really great there today. Great service, well-rehearsed team very attentive. Be careful stairs with every customer so sweet. The owner should pay everyone more per hour, top people and, above all, the delicious cake selection

The atmosphere is one of cramped surroundings and waiters who watch you intently. Doesn't seem very pleasant... Tables are crowded together. This does not create a feel-good atmosphere. As a NOT resident of Münster, this was my first impression.

Unfreundliches Personal, fühlten uns gar nicht willkommen. Ohne das man auch nur sagte das Geldbetrag so stimmt, wurde das Geld eingesackt und das Trinkgeld als Sachverständlich gesehen. Hab ich so noch nie erlebt..

Wir haben nur ein Glas Wein getrunken. Zum ersten Mal dort, da die Weihnachtsmärkte überfüllt waren. Aber Service und Qualität ok. Werden sicherlich wiederkommen.

Sehr freundlich trotz viel Stress heute. Preis/Leistung stimmte. Haben allerdings nur ein Glas Wein getrunken.

Onbeschoft personeel. Service kennen ze niet.

Immer voll. Aber für das Essen lohnt es sich!

Perfekter Service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Gluten-free gar kein Problem. Wir sind begeistert von der Professionalität. Lieben Dank für den schönen Abend 👍

wir waren jetzt bestimmt schon 4 mal dort und es hat immer alles gestimmt :)

Trotz Vollheit völlig ausgeglichenes Personal. Sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt, und die "Portionen" auch. Vielen Dank für den wunderschönen Nachmittag bei Ihnen. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Sehr leckeres Essen zu moderaten Preisen. Zur Mittagszeit sehr voll, dennoch kam das Essen sehr schnell. Freundliches Personal
