New Mintons in Trier

We tried to have a drink on the terrace, but after repeatedly being told that he was coming, we left for another 30 minutes. The two male staff thought it was more important to clear dishes or clean tables. After they were promised to come, he went back to doing other things and completely ignored us. The other man on staff ignored us anyway and hasn't said a word even though he was busy straightening chairs next to our table. There were only three tables with people so it wasn't the crowd. Very rude. When we got up and left they looked at us strangely, as if you stay seated if you are not helped. Plenty of other terraces where you will be helped.

If you like waiting, the restaurant is perfect. Waiting time of about 1 1/2 hours is really cool.

After patiently waiting for 1 hour the food didn't come.

We have been advised to go to this restaurant as a cheap and good one, what a bad surprise ! The service needs to be faster 40 minutes for this food quality is too much, the waiters are kind and smiley but the kitchen is too late for the quality they produce . The food was something else, I ordered a currywurst and the meat inside was processed and tasteless, very disappointed. If I could go back in time, I would have paid less for a kebab with fries and be satisfied !

Beautiful outdoor spaces on the Stockplatz at the beginning of the pedestrian zone near the parking garage at the main market. Daily meals also on weekends from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. Daily changing specials from 5 p.m. Super friendly and humorous staff.

Nice lunch. Salad, burger and frikadelle. Baguettes were no longer in stock, so we ordered a burger bun with mozzarella. Nice spacious facility with plenty of tables, very spacious terrace. As a result, you have to wait a little longer for service, but with good table company that is not a problem.

Very nice restaurant with great outdoor seating. The food is prepared very freshly, which means a slightly longer waiting time. However, this is completely ok because we don't want to eat at a fast food chain. That's why I find it worrying when guests complain here. Great food and good drinks!!!

Yes. It's nice to sit outside. Prices are right.

We tourists (from SB) like to eat there. But the workload of the waitresses is inhumane. The food was quite good and varied with fair prices. We would be happy to pay a little more if it would relieve some of the workload on the staff. 10/24/24 It was nice to see that there was no rush and two very nice and confident ladies served us. See you soon. 👍 April 12, 2025 Wonderful how everything turned out for the better. Relaxed staff, good atmosphere... keep it up... We'll keep coming back!!! VG

Very good food despite being cheap

Nice, lively restaurant on Stockplatz. Audience diverse. Viez tastes delicious, just like that Daily specials. Price performance is right.

Bad service, dirty toilet, incorrect information on the map, very unfortunate

So not recommended at all - Unfriendly service - Very bad food, all frozen products - Very dated atmosphere - No card payments - Broken dishes on top Find somewhere else for your money - we were really disappointed to have spent our money there

The ambience is cool, bare and dirty. There was no welcome. The order took forever, we waited over 50 minutes and were just about to get up when the salad finally came. The staff was completely overwhelmed. The employee behind the counter constantly had something to complain about to her colleague: "do this, do that"....and at a volume that was impossible in front of the guests! The neighboring table also said goodbye because the wait was too long. Card payment is also not possible here.

OMG never experienced such rude service. Pushing my sister away while she's still eating, taking away plates, yelling and really, we're not lying. Very unfortunate.

Very nice restaurant, food and value for money are excellent. There's a special menu with offers every day. I'll be back.

Very, very unfriendly service, at least on some days.

Good food, attentive and friendly service, pleasant prices ☺️

Whenever I'm in Trier, I like to go to Mintons. I think the restaurant has a very nice atmosphere and in spring and summer you can sit outside very nicely. Especially outside it sometimes takes a little longer to be served, but that is also because the waitresses have to travel long distances. Therefore it is really negligible. The food has always been great, no matter what we ate and you can't complain about the prices either. You pay a lot more in other cities. So I can only recommend the restaurant.

Very tasty food. Nice selection in the menu and very reasonably priced. We'll be back. Thank you.

Nice bar for a drink and/or a snack. Many young people and students, but a good mix of people of all ages.

Lunch from Monday to Saturday. Delicious

Excellent value for money! Difficult to find this affordable in Trier! Even though we spoke a little German, the waiter made the effort to speak to us in French. He was very considerate and responsive!

Un excellent rapport qualité-prix ! Difficile de trouver aussi abordable sur Trèves. Même si nous parlions un peu allemand, le serveur a fait l’effort de parler français. De plus il a été efficace et réactif.

Good price/performance ratio! Offers change daily. (Schnitzel day; Pitta day, etc.) Very friendly and attentive staff. Visit recommendation.

Nice, relaxed restaurant, great value for money and friendly service

Unfortunately not so good...too many finished products..

The food was tasty and ready quickly (there were not many people in the restaurant) for a good price. The staff was very friendly. Please note that you cannot pay by card.

Great food, nice staff and cozy atmosphere.

Unser Essen mit 24 Studentinnen & Studenten plus zwei Lehrern am Dienstagabend war ein grosser Erfolg. Der Service war hervorragend und sehr freundlich, trotz des ganzen Drucks an diesem Schnitzelabend. Als Niederländer machen wir immer ein bisschen Lärm -- aber Sie haben alles toleriert und uns freundlich geholfen. Hoffentlich konnten die anderen Gäste mit begeisterten Studenten leben. Vielen Dank an Sie alle, wenn möglich kommen wir nächstes Jahr wieder. Am Mittwochabend waren wir auch bei Ihnen. Mit unseren Gästen: Universitätsprofessoren aus Südkorea, . Auch dann war Ihr Service -- ebenso wie Ihr Essen -- hervorragend. Sie sind wirklich nett, auch unseren Gästen hat es sehr gefallen.

I've been here several times now and every time it's been great! The atmosphere is great, you sit comfortably and the conditions were very friendly. I would come here again every time!

Since I go to Mintons often, I took a look at the reviews. Yes, in the summer it takes a little longer to serve (I've already complained), but that's due to the location: small counter area, small kitchen area. Still one of my favorite places! You can't complain about the quality of the food, which is often better than in expensive restaurants.

I have never experienced such a bad restaurant. I cannot recommend this restaurant! The negative reviews will be removed! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Gastronomy is always a question of feeling and a collaboration between guest and business. I don't want to lean too far out of the window, BUT: For me, New Mintons is something of an institution. Of course, one or two grumpy guests experience a longer wait or receive a plate that they don't like. It's sometimes funny to watch - the person is grumbling about nothing from the start and you're wondering what negative words they'll probably choose for a review :) BUT: All year round, all sensitivities are catered for almost lovingly and you experience confident and motivated service. And that with the (sometimes) large number of guests. It's always a question of how you treat each other. You (yourself) are no better than the person next to you. Back to the “institution” of New Minton: Whether you're sipping a cappuccino as a couple in the bitterly cold winter, whether you're having a sensible end to the day with the whole family with food and drink or just drinking, whether you want to quickly grab a schnitzel - or whether you're just enjoying the sunshine with everyone want to see it rise - all of this is easily possible. Like a second living room with people watching, you know :) Gastronomy is always about feeling.

I've been there many times, the food is always great, the staff is very friendly and if there were 10 stars you would have gotten them from me today

We always enjoy coming, especially after a visit to the cinema or just because. The waitress (tall, slim, straight hair…sorry.😛), who is actually always there, is also really nice. So see you soon then.👍🏻🌅

Good food and service, I liked the place. The only point is that theu informed until last minute that only cash was accepted. All rest was good.

A casual restaurant for everyone. Here you will be full and every thirst can be quenched. Nice meeting point in the middle of the city. In summer almost everyone passes by the terrace, great! Nice shop, nice service, nice guests! Let's go...

Immer wieder toll! Super nette Menschen! Ob zum Kaffee oder einfach um satt zu werden: topp! Super netter Service, jeder willkommen. Im Sommer draußen ein absoluter Topp-Treffpunkt.

Very friendly, good value for money

Unfriendly staff, way too much ice in the drink. We weren't even allowed to smoke

Unfriendly service… Bad food… Never again!

Extremely unfriendly staff, more ice cream than drinks and an overall bad atmosphere. It was bad sitting there. Never again!!!

It tastes really great and is very inexpensive!!! Gladly again.

Great, delicious food. The waitresses are all very nice too. Really recommended

Service is the worst I have ever seen. There is a waiting time of 45 minutes for drinks.

Top food. Great ambience. And at good prices. 👍

Very long waiting time. The lady who served us was very unfriendly. The food (dish of the day = Jägerschnitzel) was super bad. The dish was completely returned...the waitress didn't care at all. Paid money and left the restaurant hungry😬😱😱😱 NOT RECOMMENDED

We had a quiet day and friendly staff who were really working hard to serve the customers. The food was good and definitely worth the money. Not a standout, but just tasty. Nice place to sit outside on the square. Not seated inside. Small point: the Jäger sauce could have been a little more flavorful and filling. So otherwise fine.

Food good, value for money also great. Again and again!

The food wasn't very good: my burger came with vegetables next to it, the pizza had burnt edges, but you have to say that it is very cheap.

There was obviously a lack of staff to serve the huge guest area quickly. The staff was nice though.

Delicious food. Friendly atmosphere. Friendly service.

Ate outside, nice location. The food was quite cheap, but the quality was so good. Dressings from the tube, meat ok. K app waited an hour from Essen, service was absolutely overwhelmed.

Never again. Waiting time for food was very long, over an hour, badly organised service. Food was ok-ish, nothing special. Not accepting card payment and failed to inform on arrival.

Simple, tasty food with good portions at a reasonable price. Good local Riesling and Dornfelder. A bit noisy in the restaurant, but that probably can't be helped. But why card payments are not possible remains really incomprehensible. There is no mention of this at the entrance or on the menu... only with the bill. Very incomprehensible and out of date.

Very long waiting times. Why do you have to pay before eating or in between? The service is unfriendly and slow. The waiter is not visible. You can't pay by card, they don't say that beforehand.

Super nice service!!! Thank you for the great service.

Very, very nice and cozy shop. The inside looks well preserved, despite its age. Outdoor area fine. The service is very nice and the price-performance ratio is right. All in all, always worth a visit.

Food cheap and good. Service is nice but often overwhelmed. Already waited 1 hour for food.

We had ordered 2 daily specials here for which we had to wait 30 to 40 minutes and what came was canteen food - schnitzel and fries in the fruetese and the salad - dressing on it and that was it.

Good reasonably priced meals. Nice service. Always happy again

Takes a long time before they come to take your order. We still had dirty plates and it took a long time before they came to clean them up. Service was not super friendly, but not exactly unfriendly either. The wine was very tasty!

Delicious food Cozy atmosphere Service very nice and attentive Easy peasy

Highly recommended. Top prices and very nice staff

City visit to Trier with a stop on a square to have something to eat with friends. Delicious schnitzel, fries and vegetables 😋 Friendly and fast service.

The Schaffhausen of Trier gastronomy. Those who employ managed staff also have a little more revenue in the evening. The waitress's statement: oh, whether the counter still wants to make this drink... ... yes it is available, it's on the menu and it's 9:05 p.m.... In the space of an hour and almost three tables were occupied, the waitress managed to take the order once and bring the order to the second round, Since after 30 minutes of dispensing the drinks there was still no staff in sight, we had to call and pay. The billing of the table was then carried out using mathematical mental arithmetic tasks - semi-professionally - instead of using a calculation. Put 6!

Delicious, fully-fed meal for the day for under €10 - where else can you find something like that? Locals and tourists, young, old and middle-aged (like us ;-)) ) guests alike. There are sunny and shady places to choose from in the beer garden; and when it rains, comfort in several semi-open rooms in the historic vaulted building. Large selection of cheap drinks; Cocktail of the day for only €5.80!! First destination for our next trip to Trier.

We ate - and drank - our fill at New Mintons during the girls' trip from the Westerwald to Trier. Nice and attentive waiters. Price/performance ratio great! Tip: Daily meal (until 5 p.m.) for €7.00 to €10.50.

Good food at very reasonable prices! The restaurant is very nice and rustic and you can sit very relaxed in the outdoor area. The lush space was particularly welcome for us as a family of five with two dogs. We will be happy to come back more often.

Super nice and fast service! Food was great too! We came with twelve people at half past nine in the evening and had food within 20 minutes. Everyone happy and slightly teased by Viez. Gladly again!

Great location, friendly service. There are also often promotions: Schnitzel day... Burger day... Cocktail evening, etc. The food tastes good and is lovingly prepared. U.Ritter™

I always enjoyed going there. Staff always friendly, fast service, always great daily specials. But then I was very disappointed. I waited over an hour for food with a friend and the guests at the next table also complained. We then got up and left without waiting for the food. What is very annoying is that cars are constantly driving up and down there. Particularly bad in the evening. You can't talk about a cozy evening anymore. You sit outside and the cars are constantly driving up and down between the tables. This bothers many guests. That's why I haven't visited the restaurant for a long time. Don't have to inhale all the fumes while eating. This movement of cars would have to be stopped. It's a shame, unfortunately it's very annoying

Expensive prices, but the quality of the food is not adequate

Even though we ate outside, it was a nice experience. This was my first time having chicken schnitzel but it was good. The cream sauce was great. They were pretty busy, but the service was still good.

Friendly service who do their best to serve the tip. We ate curry sausage with an extra salad. Wasn't impressed. Not hot and pre-cut. Lots of sauce. Do not take the spicy curry sausage, only the sauce is a bit more seasoned. Coffee was fine. As mentioned staff were friendly and helpful.

Achtung, nur Barzahlung!!! Das vermutlich unfreundlichste Personal das ich in einem Restaurant erlebt habe. Die erste Bestellung wurde schnell aufgenommen, danach musste man die Kellner rufen. Nachbartische hatten das gleiche Problem. Personal unfassbar schnippisch und unfreundlich.

Good restaurant in the center but a little out of the way Very youthful atmosphere

Excellent service. Ok dish for price and flavor. A little slow in delivering the dish but there were a lot of customers. Easy access, good location and environment. Values ​​ok too.

Long waiting time, I found the food to be suboptimal, the young man's service was great, but the young woman's service was not so good and if we hadn't noticed several times that it wasn't until we were paying that we were told that no card payment was possible, we would have been surprised you just think about it and dig out the cash. If it hadn't been for the nice young waiter, this would almost be a one-star rating, because despite the relatively cheap price, the value simply wasn't right.

Since I was a student in Trier, we have been going to New Mintons for dinner every now and then. The reasons were simple: it tasted very good, the service was very friendly and the price was reasonable. Unfortunately, on my last visit I was really disappointed for the first time. The prices are still reasonable, but the service was in the top 5 worst I have ever experienced. We were there with children who were also hungry. But apart from drinks there was nothing. We contacted the waitress several times to finally be able to order food, but this request was always ignored. One waitress even left with a shake of her head. Other guests weren't exactly thrilled either and went straight to the innkeeper to order something or finally be able to pay. Ok, there was a lot going on, but it was far from confusing. At least I was able to at least pay for my drinks after the third time of asking. Since I've always been happy there and don't hold grudges, I'll give the restaurant another chance after a while. I hope that this review gives reason to speak to the employees. As a waitress, you shouldn't take your frustration out on the guests. If there are delays in operations, it would be better to communicate this to guests rather than reacting with blatant ignorance.

The best cocktails are here. My tip: deep sea divers. Yes, you have to wait a while. But there is always something to observe here and the waiting times are not a problem for us at all. The waitresses give it their all and are just whizzing around. We always enjoy coming back and are happy to pay in cash.

We have rarely been served so poorly than here. When we wanted to pay beforehand, the cashier said if we didn't want to leave a tip. When we refused, the cashier asked us if it was normal not to tip in our country. Later we were told: Just go

Good food and affordable. Cozy atmosphere and good service. Fast customer-friendly service, especially that tall blonde woman with curls. If we are in Trier again, we will definitely come again.

Waited 45 minutes for the food. We weren't told it would take. A pity. But there is a lot of potential to improve the service here. We would have liked to upload photos, but there was nothing to take photos.

Never again!!! Waited 50 minutes for the food and it was bad... You couldn't pay with a card either, but you were only told when you were cashing out

Bad service!!. We waited more than 1 hour for our order. Contacted the staff several times without them getting back with a status. We left without dinner. There were several other tables who also waited a long time for their food. Too many tables and too little capacity in the kitchen and staff result in poor service.!

Food is inexpensive, nothing more and nothing less. Large selection, however.

A very nice place to go out. The visits are very friendly. The ambience is also nice, both outside and inside.

After 50 minutes we finally got the food. The neighbors gave up after 1 hour and canceled the order. I haven't eaten so badly in a long time, it was just terrible. You can only pay the bill in cash, you only find out at the end. You won't get an invoice anyway.

Terrible customer service. First started out that I got a drink and the waitress would be back to take my order. An hour later I had to ask another waiter to take my order. Food took long but that I understood. I finished and they took my plate but no receipt. I asked again another waiter and it's been over 30 min and still no receipt. I have been at this restaurant for over 2 hours, going on 3. Their waitresses and waiters need to be trained better since they only come by when you first order your drinks, after that good luck on getting your order in and receipt in a decent amount of time

incredibly slow service. After 1 hour of waiting with the children we left without eating. To avoid.

I was at New Mintons for the first time today and ordered the nachos. They were very, very tasty, the cheese was in strings when you took one. The waiters are very nice, not like in other restaurants.

The operator has far too many tables open for the number of waitresses. This means you have extremely long waiting times and extremely stressed employees, which depresses the atmosphere. The biggest point of criticism is that they only accept cash payments. No information is given in advance and you are forced to withdraw cash from the nearest ATM for high fees.

Friendly service staff. The various theme days offer great offers which are really recommended. Otherwise you can only be happy about the good price-performance ratio. There is a parking garage in the immediate vicinity, making it very relaxing to reach this place.

I'm not a fan of bad stars and criticism, so I'm still giving it three stars because the 2 wheat ones were okay and I'll give more stars if it gets better. But out of the 5 times I was there, 4 times it was semi and today it wasn't good at all. Would have liked to have addressed this but the people outside seem to have enough to do already. Please change fryers. And I've waited forever, really forever, for the cordon bleu since I sat down. And then it was really that bad. Cordon bleu was just fine, fries simply tasted disgustingly like old fat. So I could have done the number in 10 minutes for 8 euros. Sorry for the review. I'll come back and then I hope it will finally be good. The location should not be wasted with lower standards. Great day tdm and see you soon to good stars

Good food but very long wait. After 1.5 hours we got our food...

Waited 1.5 hours for food, unfortunately nothing came. Staff wasn't interested.

Terrible. Drinks came quickly. Beer from Trier was very good. We didn't get any food after 60 minutes and left hungry.

Disastrous service - not recommended! Our visit to this restaurant was a complete disappointment. There were three of us and we waited over 1 hour and 30 minutes for our food without anything being served. This is simply not acceptable! The restaurant wasn't even particularly busy, so there's no excuse for such an extremely long wait. We had to ask the staff several times when our food would finally arrive and were only met with unfriendly and evasive answers. After 90 minutes of waiting and no sign that our food was coming soon, we had enough and left. Our evening was ruined. I've never experienced anything like this before and it clearly shows how little value the restaurant places on its guests. We will definitely never come back and advise everyone not to visit this restaurant. There are many other places that offer better service and don't treat their guests so badly.
