Main-Kinzig-Forum Kantine in Gelnhausen

Unfortunately, our experience was quite disappointing. When we came in, the owner was very rude to us. The place was very busy. As a former restaurant worker, I understand the stress of a lunch rush. But taking it out on guests is just unacceptable. The rest of the staff was okay, albeit not very professional. The food was average at best, which was disappointing given the price tag. The only nice thing about this place is the amazing view from the terrace. But overall, it was a very bad experience!

Very good restaurant. Long drinks etc. are freshly made and taste that way. The burgers are also fresh and always a great dinner. The terrace is great for evenings when it gets warmer.

The Jägerschnitzel tasted good, was fried a little dark, but wasn't that bad. I was much more surprised at the price/performance ratio, when the nice waitress brought me my schnitzel, I had to wonder because I thought I had ordered the children's schnitzel, but it was actually the normal size, so for 20 euros a mini schnitzel with a handful of fries, I think it's a little cheeky and I'm talking about a pork schnitzel and not a veal schnitzel, but feel free to see for yourself, you could eat it.

Apparently the times given here are not correct and the shop is only open in the evenings, if at all. If you call the number provided (a cell phone number) to reserve a table, you will be answered by a nameless man who will first ask which restaurant you would like to make a reservation for. If you raise your concerns, he says: “Oh, hmm, they’re actually only open in the evenings.” He wants to “clarify” it and then call you back - which he will never do. Everything is very dubious.

Really friendly service staff who love children. The food was super tasty. Really everyone (12 people) was very satisfied. About half of the people couldn't finish the portion because it was so generously portioned. The drinks were also generously limited. And there was a liquor and a lollipop on the house for the kids. We were very satisfied and would definitely like to come back.
