Nikolaushof in Würzburg

A fantastic location with a beautiful panoramic view of Würzburg! First-class, friendly service, excellent cuisine, and a unique ambiance make the Nikolaushof a highly recommended destination!

A very nice location, the food was very, very tasty. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The prices for the starter, main course, and dessert are also unbeatable. All in all, highly recommended 👍😊

Great food in a beautiful ambience

Exclusive ambiance, exclusive prices – unfortunately, exclusive responsibility. After our visit, which cost almost €100 for two people, my partner suffered severe stomach upset with vomiting and diarrhea that same evening. My complaint was met with an evasive response, citing allergies and hypothetical intolerances – instead of taking the incident seriously. Anyone dining in this price range can expect more than just a beautiful view and empty words.

Impossible! The kitchen and service were completely overwhelmed. The appetizer arrived after over half an hour, and the main course never arrived! Better off going to McDonald's!

We went to the beer garden. The atmosphere and view are excellent! However, the cakes are just cheap, industrial-style goods. And I don't think €4.50 a slice is reasonable. Any cake mix tastes better!

Unfortunately, a complete disaster. We had a 5:30 p.m. reservation, and we couldn't have come any later because we waited FOREVER for our food. We ended up leaving the restaurant at 9:30 p.m. after four hours, and we had to wait 30 minutes to get our menus. The guinea fowl arrived at the table partially raw (translucent and pink). After we took it back to the kitchen to get a cooked, edible chicken, the waiter came to the table and instead of apologizing for the inedible food, he asked, "Oh, and you'd like your chicken cooked well?" Oh, what kind of question is that?! A chicken isn't a steak, which can be eaten medium-rare. We paid €230 for this for four people. We won't be back and won't recommend it to anyone. Better food and service can be found at much cheaper prices in other restaurants and bars.

Beautiful ambiance, magnificent view, and delicious food. Highly recommended, and you can also take a lovely walk around the area. 😊

Still a nice location in Würzburg. Unfortunately, the service and food were mediocre. Long wait times and too few staff.

A truly beautiful location above Würzburg with a unique view of the city from the terrace. I would describe the food in the restaurant as very good, upscale cuisine without any Michelin-star frills. The aroma and consistency are just right, as is the price-performance ratio. The wine list should really satisfy most tastes. The service at the table was very friendly. The only annoyance for us was trying to reserve a table online via the website: It says that reservations are only possible via the online reservation form. However, this form only allows reservations for the following day. And when you try to do that, the form requires a captcha entry – only no captcha appears. We then called and were able to reserve a table for the same day without any problems. For this reason – and really only because of the hassle of the online reservation – we deducted 2 points for service.

The food was excellent and the team was simply fantastic. We immediately felt at home. The service was super attentive and warm. Thank you for the lovely evening with you! :)

Unfortunately, the Nikolaushof cannot be recommended. The price-performance ratio is clearly disproportionate. The schnitzel seemed overcooked, as if it had come from a deep fryer, and the fried potatoes were soggy for €31. The truffle pasta for €26.90 was no better, served in a pure cream sauce with a touch of truffle. The trout served in the pan was not only dry but also lacking in flavor. The extensive wine list is impressive, but not when compared to the wait staff's lack of knowledge about the products. And then, when half the white wines aren't chilled... The service staff were generally very attentive and friendly. The ambiance, with its view over Würzburg, is actually worthy of 5 stars. Unfortunately, this impression suffers from a lack of cleanliness, e.g., the awning, things lying around in the corners, etc. It's a shame—the location actually has a lot of potential. Given the overall impression, I wouldn't visit you again and unfortunately can't recommend you to anyone.

A very nice location, but unfortunately, the prices for the food are disproportionate. Very expensive, and the service isn't up to par! Perhaps the concept could be reconsidered! It's a shame we expected more! €14 for an appetizer (see photo...) – we were disappointed! The portion in the bowl was the size of a tablespoon, and unfortunately, the flavor wasn't explosive!

We went there with our family for dinner and the experience was not good. The service was slow: it took a long time to take our order and even longer for the food to arrive. There were five of us; three of the four adults received their food, and the fourth arrived 10 minutes later. The quality of the food is disproportionate to the price: €40 for a main course of mushrooms and pork fillet with no salt, bitter mushrooms, and small portions. There are also no healthy food options for children. We were given a glass of wine as an apology, but we won't be returning and cannot recommend it.

The prices are now disproportionate to the quality of the food on offer. Prices are like those at fine dining, but the quality and taste are like those at a simple pub. A 1.5-hour wait for the food. Very friendly staff who tried to limit the damage. Perhaps they should rethink the concept of this otherwise great location, or if the kitchen doesn't have enough staff, they should not accept so many guests. This restaurant won't survive in the long run.

After our wedding 💒, my husband and I had dinner at the Nikolaushof. It was known that we were having our wedding that day. Neither the waitress nor the manager congratulated us, let alone perhaps a coffee or a schnapps for dessert on the house. I found that a real shame, because weddings aren't something you get to do every day, and it was just the two of us, and we left enough money at the restaurant. Whether we'll go there again is highly questionable.

July 2025 A great location with a fantastic view over Würzburg. Plenty of shady spots. There's a self-service and restaurant area. It's a great place to linger. A great atmosphere.

Great location just above the Käppele with a fantastic view of Würzburg. The tables on the large terrace are very nice. Large umbrellas and sails offer protection from the weather. The interior is also comfortably furnished. The staff is very friendly and the food is exceptionally delicious. We had a great time.

I celebrated my wedding there a week ago, and it was unforgettable. The staff was always attentive to all of our guests and supported us in every way, even before the ceremony, and listened to our every question. The price is high, but absolutely justified for this location. My husband and I were thrilled and are very grateful for everything.

Nice ambiance, food was good, but we waited over two hours for our food in a moderately busy restaurant. The trout and salmon were also overcooked. For the price, I really expected a bit more. To make matters worse, the heavier staff who brought the food were so unfriendly, know-it-all, and dismissive that I won't be visiting this restaurant again because of the service.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A very special place with very special people Today we were at the Nikolaushof again – and what can we say: simply thrilled! As always, we were warmly welcomed by the entire team around Julia and Johannes, incredibly attentive service, and pampered with unparalleled organization. The service is extremely friendly, attentive, and authentic – you immediately feel that the work here is done with passion. Whether it's a welcome, advice, or loving attention in between: your every wish is literally read from your eyes. Add to that this stunning view over the whole of Würzburg – it's as if you were sitting in a small oasis above the city's rooftops. The atmosphere, cuisine, and hospitality blend perfectly here. What was particularly impressive was that no matter what we celebrated – be it a milestone birthday, a baptism, a Christmas party, an evening with friends, or a wine tasting – Julia, Johannes, and their team perfectly supported each event and made it something special. We are always impressed, each time in a new way. Even for a "normal evening," the Nikolaushof is a place where you can relax, enjoy yourself, and simply feel at home. Thank you all so much – we're already looking forward to our next visit!

A place where everything is just right: - Food - Drinks - Atmosphere - Location and view There's nothing more to say.

A bit dated, with some investment backlog. But the food is excellent, and the service is good and friendly. In good weather, the location is prime with a fantastic view over Würzburg.

The most beautiful view of Würzburg, along with very attentive service and great food. We highly recommend the Nikolaushof and would celebrate there again anytime. Thank you again for the wonderful day :)

Unfortunately, it's not what it used to be! As a Würzburg resident, it's more than a shame to see how much the Nikolaushof has declined. After many years, we went back there again – and unfortunately, for the last time for now. The food was not good, simply not appetizing, and in no way commensurate with the price. The charred fried potatoes are just one example of several. The service was friendly at first, but the entire experience seemed chaotic and unloving. The restaurant gives off a dingy impression; you simply sense no passion, no heart and soul. It doesn't feel like a place run with love, but rather like something that just sort of works, and as if no one really puts any effort into it. Our criticism was ignored; the chef even defended the black potatoes, saying that his guests like them that way. Resistance to advice instead of insight. At least we weren't charged for the meal in the end – but unfortunately, that doesn't change the fact that we left disappointed. The view over Würzburg is still unique, but the restaurant can't do anything about it, and unfortunately, it doesn't salvage the overall impression either. What a pity!

Unfortunately, I have to say that, based on the reviews, I was expecting a bit more. While the food tasted absolutely fine, the portions were very small compared to the price, or in other words, the price was too high for the portions. So if you want to enjoy the beautiful view, aren't too hungry, but are still willing to pay a lot, this is the restaurant for you.

I, Giannis Nicou, was booked as a wedding DJ at the Nikolaushof – an absolute dream location! The combination of a stylish ambiance, a fantastic view, and a super-dedicated team made the celebration unforgettable for everyone. From a service provider's perspective, too: top-notch! Technology, process, communication – everything went smoothly. I'm already looking forward to the next party there. Absolutely recommended for anyone looking for a relaxed, high-quality celebration! 🎶💍 - Giannis Nicou

First the positive, the view is breathtakingly beautiful, the path to the chapel is not far. We arrived there full of anticipation, having pre-booked a table for 4 people. Drinks and starters came quite quickly, then we waited over an hour for our main course. When we asked when we would get our food, the waiter told us, after he had asked, that there was a social gathering there, and it would be our turn when they had their food. When the food arrived, a Wienerschnitzel-sized dish (2 schnitzels), we were very impressed, then came 3x the Plänchen with green beans, spaetzle and pork fillet, the emphasis is on pan, beans hard, meat hard and you had to search for mushrooms and spaetzle. For the price and the wait, it's outrageous. Such a beautiful restaurant with such a beautiful view is unfortunately not worth what we got for 190 euros. Our companion, who had recommended this restaurant to us, was also visibly surprised.

Beer garden with a beautiful view. Food and service are okay, but nothing more.

We had already booked the Nikolaushof for a company party two years ago – the location itself is simply stunning. The view over Würzburg remains unique. For Mother's Day, we wanted to enjoy this special place privately and had reserved a table for 6 adults and one child at 5:30 p.m. We arrived at 5:00 p.m. and were able to sit down right away. Our table was in the back area – when we asked if we could move to one of the front (still free) tables with a nicer view, we were told that this area was reserved for self-service. It was all the more surprising that other guests were seated there a short time later with à la carte options. Unfortunately, the evening took a disappointing turn: After over an hour, there was still no food at the table, not even an appetizer. Since we had booked a taxi to the train station, I went to the kitchen to politely point out our time constraints. They promised to try – but after two hours, we ended up having to take a taxi without food. The service was always friendly and attentive, but the bottleneck was clearly in the kitchen – nevertheless, such an experience on Mother's Day naturally leaves a bitter aftertaste. The disappointment was also palpable at neighboring tables. The bottles of wine "on the house" unfortunately couldn't make up for it. It's a shame – we would have loved to have fond memories of this day.

The food was okay, but the price/performance ratio wasn't right. The place looks dirty and is in dire need of renovation.

A Sobering Experience at the Nikolaushof We visited the Nikolaushof around 6:00 p.m. and unfortunately had another disappointing experience. Although the terrace was still mostly empty at that time, almost all of the tables had "reserved" signs. We weren't asked for a reservation, but rather directly whether we wanted something to eat. Since we didn't have a menu yet, we couldn't answer immediately. Unfortunately, we weren't allowed to have even a glass of wine on the terrace – despite the apparently numerous free seats. We found the communication to be lacking in service and hospitality. Since we've experienced similar situations several times before, we've decided not to visit the Nikolaushof in the future.

I was disappointed. I expected more after reading the reviews.

Located high above Würzburg, the Nikolaushof offers a unique view. The food is absolutely excellent, the service is very friendly, and the place has a charm all its own. Very clean restrooms complete the good impression. Parking is available nearby. It's not particularly suitable for wheelchair users due to the many stairs and uneven paths. We highly recommend the Nikolaushof.

The highlight, of course, is the phenomenal view of Würzburg. We sat on the self-service terrace. As long as there isn't a large group waiting to order ahead of you at the self-service counter, everything goes relatively quickly. Since we only had French fries and beer, we can't really judge the food, but everything was fine for us.

I was there with my partner in March. It was already a bit milder during the day, but still very cold at night. The dining area wasn't heated, so some guests sat at their tables in their jackets, and some of the staff also wore extra clothing. The salad we ordered was disappointing, but the vegetable curry was good. When the food was served, some of it was only lukewarm. The prices, however, were very high. All in all, the location is very nice, but unfortunately, the visit wasn't worth repeating or recommending.

Seven of us went to Mother's Day brunch today and we can't confirm the partly subterranean reviews. We were lucky that we were set up outside in this great weather. This means the places are spread out nicely. The buffet was divided in such a way that the same dishes could be accessed on both sides, so there were no long queues. The quality of the food was very good. And from start to finish the service was great, attentive, very friendly. There was also disinfectant in the toilets for the toilet glasses. So it depends on how the guests leave the toilet.

You pay for the location with a great view over Würzburg. Service is a matter of luck. Food doesn't live up to the price. Hygiene bad……

Waiter puts beer on table and doesn't clean. Atmosphere is good, 2 stars for the koi fish

I can only recommend taking a short detour and enjoying the view with a great tarte flambée and wine.

Yes, beautiful view and great ambience. Alsatian tarte flambée and Franconian bratwurst are highly recommended.

I received brunch for three people as a birthday present and was really looking forward to it. Unfortunately for free. It started with the fact that our reserved places (the voucher was issued specifically for this Easter Sunday, but was still reserved separately) were not noted. So we had to forego the brunch room and take a seat on the terrace. Luckily the weather was fairly passable. However, firstly, the chairs are not that comfortable and secondly, the service person responsible for the brunch was very rarely outside. (If he did, then he was friendly and eager to try). The management there, probably the service manager, left a lot to be desired: she used first names (maybe it's in now, but still doesn't suit a restaurant as expensive as the Nikolaushof), she was extremely loud, made fun of us without seriously checking on us. She neither informed us how far the buffet was nor did she bring drinks without special request (which were rarely possible as she didn't feel responsible for our table), nor was it probably beneath her position/dignity to take away used dishes. Unfortunately, pseudo-friendliness cannot hide a lack of service. I would like to give this three minus stars, which unfortunately isn't available here. The food was not labeled (that would be helpful for some products), cold, partly old, dry, inedible, canned fruit, but above all unimaginative and far too little. The hot lunch was oversalted and the meat was tough. At our suggestion, the nice waiter offered us three dishes from the kitchen: Bœuf bourguignon. It was nice and came relatively quickly, but it wasn't boeuf bourguignon, but rather roast beef. Unfortunately, only one of three slices was tender and edible and the sauce was too salty. The Nikolaushof can't do much for the wonderful view as an ambience or for the weather, but it still gets 3 stars for that - minus the not entirely hygienically clean toilets. Very disappointing. I used to enjoy being here, the food was highly recommended. Unfortunately that was it. You definitely lost me as a guest.

We just spontaneously went here for a drink - super relaxed atmosphere with a great view. I would particularly like to highlight Mehdi: extremely friendly, helpful and just really likeable. Nothing fake but really authentic and an absolute win for the Nikolaushof. Thanks to Mehdi for the great afternoon

Good day, I thought about how to write this for a long time. We were really looking forward to Nikolaushof and were completely disappointed. Eat: The soup was cold and had several hairs in it. The waitress didn't notice us. The glasses were still dirty. The main course was ok The positions on the prices were definitely not right. For me it was more of a children's plate with two pieces of meat. We didn't want dessert. Service: We just stood there for about 8 minutes until we were noticed. There were leftover food from previous customers at the table, which can happen. But the fact that we have to wait 20 minutes before we can order drinks is really tough. Ambience: The view is great but the cleanliness at McDonalds is sometimes clean. Conclusion Nikolaushof We won't go again for now

Good reward at the end of our excursion and the visit to the chapel. We were able to enjoy some very beautiful panoramic views along with two glasses of wine and some sausages 😊 100% recommended!

Great service, great food and great view of Wüzburg

You have a great view of the city, we sat in the beer garden and were very satisfied

Simply excellent love dinner for Valentine's Day.

A big compliment to the host! I stopped by and unfortunately it was a rest day. I sat down on the terrace to take a breather and it looked so homely. The innkeeper happened to come by and asked if I would like a coffee. I said yes, but said “they have a rest day”. “No problem,” he said, went and brought me a great cappuccino and gave me that too. That's what I call love for work and really nice guest service. I would like to remember the restaurant for another time because the menu looked really tasty. 🙏🏻

We sat outside... Friendly treatment in self-service and a nice atmosphere

Food was great but my hand was a little dry but everything else was great Recommended

I visited the Nikolaushof for Valentine's Day dinner, where many of my friends raved about the location. So I booked this evening for myself and my wife. First we were welcomed for a drink in the courtyard. Here you could enjoy the view over Würzburg or warm up by the fire. After a short time, the staff assigned us a table and told us when the food would be served. The location inside and out is very beautiful. The service was courteous. For the 4 course dinner: At the beginning there were a few small starters, including dips with white bread. The second course was pumpkin soup, the main course was risotto with kohlrabi and vegetable chips and, for dessert, some ice cream with a small muffin with eggnog cream. It was a bit of a shame that the vegetarian option included a little bit of kohlrabi instead of the chicken poularde, which in my opinion was completely out of proportion to the price, because it was the same as the meat option. If you choose the meat option, the price would still be high, but more justified. All in all, I wouldn't book another event here and maybe just come by for a drink to enjoy the view.

I give full marks, especially for the presentation, ambience and unique view. The character up there is completely different to that of staying in the city.

We were in the restaurant for a 6-course dinner on New Year's Eve 24/25, the table decorations, the service and the drinks were definitely first class. The view over Würzburg and the many fireworks is also unique. What was unacceptable was the fact that the tables including drinks were completely cleared while the guests were admiring the fireworks on the terrace. The New Year's Eve description previously stated that it would end at 1 a.m., but announcing that guests were being kicked out with empty tables, so to speak, is not advertising for such a top restaurant.

We booked the Christmas brunch. First we had to walk across the courtyard in 0 degree weather to get our food in another room. We actually only got a cappuccino after the fourth time we asked. The breakfast was very simple. The scrambled eggs offered were simply placed in the bowl, unwarmed, in front of the door, which was always open. Fish, such as smoked salmon, was not refrigerated. Lunch was dry (fish) and cold (beans and potatoes). The two people responsible on site were never open to the criticism of many guests. People were fobbed off with the answer “and what should we do now?” Dear Nikolaushof, you can't always excuse yourself with the great view!

We took part in the gala dinner on New Year's Eve 2024/25. It was the first event of this kind for us and it was a thoroughly enjoyable evening. The food was very good, the courses varied and the portions more than sufficient. The wines were well chosen and you could order as many as you wanted. The organization was fluid and the timing was perfect. We ate dinner from 7:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m., with the breaks between courses never being too long. The food came hot in every course and at the same time for each table. The staff was very friendly and accommodating and the guests were also pleasant. Initially the price per person seemed high to us, but now I have to say the evening was worth the price in every respect. We will come back. Thank you for the lovely New Year's Eve celebration.

We are always overwhelmed by the ambience, the great service and the quality of the food!

Hello everyone, I was invited as a guest to the Christmas brunch in the barn on December 26th, 2024 (Boxing Day), so my name is not shown in the reservation book. Unfortunately, I had to realize that the entire Christmas brunch process, no structure and no planning was in place, as well as the distribution of space was an outrage and a catastrophe. I wasn't the only guest here who had this opinion, I suspect almost all the guests who received the table in the hut, barn and pavilion. I would like to explain the events in a little more detail. First of all, we had made a reservation for 5 people. In the “Barn” restaurant, we were allocated space on site at a table that would actually only have been for 4 people. The position of the table was to get up and walk past the other chairs/guests without disturbing them, it was very narrow at around 15 cm. So the second step was a table in the “Pavilion” restaurant. Since we were in a single hut with other guests, the food was not always available and was replenished very late. The table position of the small buffet could also have been chosen better here and not in the area of ​​the open entrance door. You had to get various dishes in the barn, the path then led back and forth across the courtyard back to the table in the pavilion. Everything wasn't designed so ideally. You should receive a partial refund of the price here because of the absolutely catastrophic poor planning and implementation by the management staff. The person I felt very sorry for during this entire service process was the service staff; they primarily noticed all the frustration and annoyance from the guests present. I hereby give 5 stars to the operating staff. It was a very tense atmosphere and you can also confirm the situation. I remain in a positive message from you regarding a partial refund. Contact would be welcome. A happy new year to you. Kind regards, M. Weigang

Yesterday we had our Christmas menu in the Nikolaushof and to sum up it has dropped off massively. Marketing and location isn’t everything. We were very happy about the invitation and reservation confirmation. When you arrive on site, the entrance area appears completely untidy. The wine bottles and boxes are supposed to look modern but they're just not tidy. The organization was nothing. First food comes and then they ask for drinks. For this price it was nothing, neither the food nor the service justified this price. That has decreased massively. Only mass processing. The atmosphere from previous years is gone. We enjoyed staying at the Nikolaushof for many years, but unfortunately that's over because for the money, unfortunately, no. Not recommended, at least if it stays that way.

We were at the barn for Christmas brunch in 2024. If it continues to be offered like this, we cannot recommend it. The seating was far too narrow and many people couldn't even sit properly at the tables. The room would have really benefited from 10-20 fewer people. In some cases, registered groups could not sit together because there were simply not enough seats at the tables. The food was okay, but the buffet was far too crowded for the many people. At this price (excluding drinks), a recommendation in this form is simply not advisable.

Unfortunately I have to give one star and can't deduct a star. We had the booked brunch on Christmas Day. The organization was completely underground. We had to go across the yard ourselves to get our food. The selection was very clear and not worth the money. We asked the service manager and managing director about it, but they were very indifferent. Two thirds of the guests also complained and wanted to speak to the management, but the management did not show up to the guests/customers (I am not sure that we are seen as such).

We were here for Christmas brunch on December 25th, 2024. The reception was very friendly. Unfortunately the buffet started 30 minutes late. The small room was far too fully booked. It doesn't create a festive mood. Some of the food was not of the quality of this restaurant class. Some of the rolls were hard and dry, like two days old. Also not enough available. The waitresses were disorganized. Cutlery and plates were always missing. We expected more for this price. Very unfortunate. 😔

As an otherwise big fan of the Nikolaushof, we are extremely disappointed after today's Advent brunch! For €60 per person, not only we but also all the other guests expected to sit down in a cozy, festive atmosphere and relax and help themselves to a delicious and varied buffet. Instead, this is what awaited us: As if we were sitting on a chicken coop, we were sitting in the barn that was completely overbooked; it was impossible to even get to our seat, let alone get to the buffet. Some guests were spontaneously moved out due to lack of space and had to walk across the courtyard to the overcrowded buffet. It is understandable and to be tolerated that there are problems with processes and mistakes happen, especially at Christmas. But what was offered here was an absolute disgrace! Against this background, it almost became irrelevant that the food tasted bland at best. Maybe and hopefully this was an unpleasant exception that shouldn't happen to an institution like the Nikolaushof. ADDENDUM: Parts of our buffet society are currently complaining about feeling unwell.

A mixed evening at Nikolaus Hof Our experience at Nikolaus Hof started promisingly: a breathtaking panorama, accompanied by a magical Christmas landscape and atmospheric atmosphere. But unfortunately our lovely evening suffered a few setbacks, ranging from minor inconveniences to serious disappointment. The meal started solidly with a starter of lamb's lettuce and spicy pickled pumpkin, which there was nothing wrong with. However, we then had to wait a full 50 minutes for the main course, even though it was ordered at the same time as the starter. After this long wait, the dishes finally arrived - but unfortunately they did not live up to expectations. The duck was a bit tough and clearly overcooked, while the salmon was disappointing: not only was it completely unseasoned, but it was also accompanied by a side dish of broccoli, the consistency of which was more reminiscent of carrots. After a reasonable break, dessert followed, but it was also disappointing. The cinnamon cake seemed to come from the freezer and the baked apple was difficult to enjoy as the unremoved peel significantly detracted from the eating experience. In summary, although the evening started solidly, the food did not maintain its “solidarity” status. With better kitchen performance, this experience could have lived up to its promising start.

Great location overlooking the city. The cuisine is good, but at a fairly average level - the establishment is not for connoisseurs. If you understand how to properly cook duck breast or fondue, then this is not the place for you. You will be served food that is quite edible, but it will not taste good... The staff is kind, the waiters are quite nice, but they also don’t live up to the stated level...

We were here with a group. All in all good. We only noticed one point that was a bit negative. When the food was served, the waitress instructed us to please distribute it ourselves. I find it difficult when it comes to pricing. But everything else was fine.

One of the absolute best restaurants in Würzburg. Very good service, very carefully maintained restaurant with very good cuisine. But the real crowning glory is the unique location with a view of the whole of Wü, where the restaurant is without competition. Highly recommended. We ourselves have been regular customers for 15 years.

No question, the main reason for visiting the restaurant is certainly the great view over Würzburg within walking distance of the Käppele. I can't complain much about the quality of the food, it's always been fine for me. However, the size of the portions for the main courses is also rather manageable, but the price quoted is all the more hefty. The biggest drawback for me, however, is the service. There are a lot of untrained and sometimes completely clumsy people here. There is always loud chatter coming from the kitchen, which doesn't seem very professional. Guests are often responded to late or not at all upon arrival - there is clear potential for improvement here.

Top food, with super friendly staff at the self-service counter. The view over the city is unique and definitely worth a visit. The price is a bit high but it's worth it.

We had a great meal at Nikolaushof. The service was super friendly and accommodating. We received great advice on the dishes and even small extra requests were implemented flawlessly. The quality of our dishes as well as the taste were simply wonderful! Thanks for the great evening!

Delicious food with a great view over Würzburg with great staff that makes you feel welcome in this location. Can recommend the Tafelspitz and the Cheese Fondue they are two of my favourite choices there.

We didn't enjoy anything here except the view. Even after 40 minutes and several waves, we weren't served, so we finally left. We've never experienced anything like this before.

Very satisfied and top service.👏👍

Great atmosphere, especially in summer with a view over Würzburg. Very nice stylish events. Fine dining. Gladly again 😍🙏

Very nice location with a fantastic view of Würzburg. Very good food, well prepared, attentive service

Wonderful location with a great view over Würzburg, especially in summer. Food was ok, service was a bit slow at times.

What just happened? We were here again after two years and apart from the view, unfortunately nothing is the same anymore. Food absolutely overpriced and very poor quality. Chanterelles with tagliatelle. Almost no taste and almost cold. We were there on a sunny Sunday evening, the town below was full of people but only 6 guests the whole evening. Toilets not clean. Totally messy in the restaurant. So unfortunately absolutely no recommendation.

We had the pleasure of visiting Nikolaushof as part of an “Eat the World” tour and loved it. The location of the restaurant offers a great view of Würzburg, which makes your stay a special experience. The soup we were served was of excellent quality and had a balanced taste. The combination of culinary enjoyment and a unique view makes the Nikolaushof a recommended destination that is definitely worth a visit.

We celebrated our wedding at Nikolaushof last week and it was really beautiful. The staff was really friendly and attentive and always helped. Maybe they could have checked on us a little more often but that's just a small thing. The view is of course incredibly beautiful and the wedding venue is also very suitable, the perfect place for a wedding. Not exactly cheap in price but still somewhere within the range. Food was good, especially the ginger carrot soup and the dips (hummus and guacamola) with bread. The vegan curry was okay but could have been saucier for me, it wasn't quite my thing. Drinks were very good, especially the lemonades are highly recommended. All in all, an absolute success and we were able to set ourselves up well beforehand. Unfortunately the air conditioning didn't work properly so we went outside again at some point. They also responded well to our requests (vegan menu).

Sorry but absolute tourinap and cheek. The view is great and the location is tempting. The staff is an absolute disaster, with the terrace not even 30% full we were ignored for minutes. I called specifically and wanted to make a reservation, but the waiter on the line told me to just come over. When we arrived, he told us (two people) that (with the outside terrace not even half full) there was only room left inside (8 p.m. in the evening and 32 degrees, mind you) - I then asked him why he didn't tell me that If the phone had said so, then I would have looked for something else and saved the trip (the restaurant is on the mountain) - he then replied that he had something - an understanding that we didn't want to sit inside (unair-conditioned) when it was 32 degrees he doesn't. We then left,

Disappointing experience despite beautiful views The view over Würzburg from Nikolaushof is really nice, but unfortunately I can't say the same about the food. For the price you pay here, the food is simply a disgrace. An example: The tarte flambée costs 14 euros, which is completely excessive considering the quality. The taste was mediocre at best, and the portion was smaller than one would expect for this price. If you come just for the view, you won't be disappointed. But if you're also hoping for good food, you're better off looking elsewhere.

We celebrated our wedding here on the restaurant terrace in August in the best weather. We were able to deliver the cakes the day before. The celebration itself went exactly as previously agreed and dreamed of. The food, summer night barbecue, was fantastic. Many guests independently praised the excellent service. We are so happy to have chosen this great location. We particularly liked the fact that all the details we had discussed in advance were implemented in exactly the same way. For example, the potato salad was served with separate bacon upon request, without the need for a reminder. Once again a huge thank you to the entire team, we felt very comfortable.

Wir kennen den Nikolaushof schon ewig, er war bei unseren Würzburg-Besuchen immer ein Highlight. Die White Cuban Night vor vielen Jahren war ebenso legendär wie der Spargel mit der besten Sauce Hollandaise, die wir je gegessen haben, was aber auch etliche Jahre her ist. Den gestrigen Abend hätten wir besser woanders verbracht. Die Größe der Portionen soll vielleicht die schlechte Qualität überdecken? Das Wiener Schnitzel war fad im Geschmack, teilweise zatterig, die Bratkartoffeln waren matschig anstatt knusprig und Kümmel in Bratkartoffeln zu so einem an sich feinen Fleisch ist viel zu heftig. Die Serviettenknödel waren sehr "neutral" im Geschmack, etwas Petersilie und Muskat hätten hier geholfen, und die Scheiben wurden nur der Form halber mal kurz in die Pfanne gelegt, aber leider nicht knusprig gebacken. Die Pfifferlinge in Rahmsauce waren sandig und doe Sauce war eine geschmacklose und viel zu fest eingedickte Pampe, auch ohne Würze/Kräuter. Salz und Pfeffer habe ich in einem der Restaurant-Räume selbst gesucht, auf den Tischen gab es nichts. Ein Lokal in Würzburg, welches keinen offenen Winzersekt zum Aperitif anbietet, nur einen müden Frizzante-Secco? Was ist das denn??? Unser Kellner war sehr nett und um Upselling bemüht, wir sind jedoch froh, daß wir nicht noch mehr bestellt haben, das wäre wahrscheinlich auch nicht besser gewesen. Leider haben wir nicht vor der Reservierung die Bewertungen gelesen, das zumindest haben wir aus dem Abend fürs nächste Mal als Positives mitgenommen. Die Situation der Toiletten wird in vielen Bewertungen negativ dargestellt - hier möchte ich anmerken, daß die Anlage selbst gestern sauber war, bis auf Dinge, die die Gäste in den Kabinen schon selbst erledigen sollten... Man muß nur das bereitgestellte Equipment benutzen, wie zu Hause auch. Fazit: Wir erinnern uns gerne an die schönen Zeiten im Nikolaushof, aber einen weiteren Besuch werden wir nicht mehr machen. Schade.

We celebrated our wedding in the Nikolaushof. It was a great celebration. We had a lot of fun and all the guests, as well as us, were thrilled. Great location, the food is highly recommended (at this point also praise and a compliment to the actors in the background), the service was top, always friendly, with a smile on their faces, they never let the stress show. Many thanks to the boss/owner for the great celebration. We can definitely recommend the Nikolaushof. Saluti Franco & Iris

State open and then stand in front of a locked door.🤮

We were there for the first time for a birthday party and were very excited. The food was incredibly tasty, the service was very courteous and quick. The location is a dream, this view over Würzburg, especially at night, a dream! The only point I deduct is because of the sanitary facilities, which smelled a bit and were very dark in my opinion (a little more light would be nice) and the other reason for one point less is the way there including the parking lot. Especially at night, without a cell phone flashlight and sturdy shoes, this is a bit adventurous and almost a little scary. All in all, highly recommended and we will definitely go there again!

I was booked as a wedding photographer at the Nikolaushof. The view from there is simply fantastic! A big compliment also goes to the kitchen and the service, very good food and a cheerful, motivated team! I look forward to being your guest/service provider again soon!

Mistakes in reservation made up for! We had reserved a table and shortly before arrival we wanted to call to let them know that we would be there a little later. That's when we were told our reservation was cancelled. Now there was a second attempt. This time everything worked. The service was first class, all three men who served us in the evening were very friendly and accommodating. As an apology for forgetting to make a reservation, we received an aperitif, a beautifully prepared dessert with various delicacies, an espresso and two schnapps on the house. Now to the food: For starters we had a Silvaner soup, which was very good, and a chanterelle soup, which tasted good, but I would have liked chanterelles as an accompaniment. For the main course we chose tarte flambée, both were very tasty. The mixed dessert was very tasty. We will come back in any case.

If you have three courses for two, leave almost 120 euros and then leave the restaurant hungry (portions are WAY too small), then that can't be the purpose. “Fine dining” is all well and good, but you should still expect to be full. The quality of the food was average considering the price. Unfortunately, it wasn't really inviting at Nikolaushof. You can really tell that the entire company is designed to maximize profits.

Great beer garden above Würzburg. The view is just incredibly good. We recommend.

We were there on July 18th. invited to the wedding of my brother-in-law and his wife at the Nikolaushof. It was beautiful up here, the view, the ambience, the delicious food and the great service, which also fulfilled small special requests, simply recommended!!!

I don't know when I've had such a bad meal, the food was subterranean, horror, we'll never enter this restaurant to eat again.

Spectacular view over Würzburg. My family from Canada was in Würzburg on a river cruise ship and we met there. It was the perfect end to a wonderful day. The food was delicious and the view is amazing! We felt very comfortable!

We chose the Nikolaushof for our wedding location. We were completely satisfied. Beforehand, we had a very good and customer-oriented exchange about our ideas and wishes. Jessica responded very well to us and helped us choose the wine with her expertise. The guests also found the view and the ambience at the top of the Nikolaushof a real highlight. The food was beautifully prepared and really tasty. Gladly again and we give you the warmest recommendation!!

Such a beautiful place, I had the vegetarian rice curry really nice

We were there for a company party. The ambience with the view is really unique. The food was very good and of high quality.

Been here for the first and last time. Great view, good food - unfriendly service. Especially the young thin man with black hair. We sat at a free table and had to get up and move after 20 minutes because this table was needed for a wedding. That was okay for us, but not for the way we were spoken to. We moved to another table and our original table remained unoccupied the whole time. After 25 minutes another waiter, relatively young, came to us and told us they needed the table too. We would have to get up and move again in 20 minutes. If you don't want guests who just want to eat and drink something, they should write a sign at the entrance - walk-in customers not welcome 😉 Tip: work on your service quality, other TOP restaurants can do it too.

Very nice location for festivities. Service was very good and child-friendly. Beautiful view. High-quality, delicious food and served elegantly, but still filling.

I booked this restaurant months in advance because it is one restaurant with a view in Würzburg I haven’t been to. The Google directions direct you the back of the restaurant which has no access to the restaurant. You have to go around, park and then walk to the restaurant. It took us half an hour to find the right location after asking the locals. Once we arrived, the view from the restaurant is great. For appetizer, I had the bratwurst and a flatbread. The flatbread is great, the bratwurst is quite standard. As an entree, I had the original schnitzel and it is a huge portion. However, the food tasted pretty average. Their wine list is great, definitely worth visiting. I do not recommend this restaurant if you are handicapped or a foreigner. They have almost no access to the restaurant for handicapped people. Furthermore, they also don’t accept any other credit or debit cards that are not German. Fortunately, we had a German person in our group and I have no clue how we would have paid if we didn’t.

World-class carpacco, great wines and a selection of upscale spirits (Rochelt etc.). Prices are high but justified due to the location. Service was always friendly, sometimes a bit inattentive, had to ask several times for butter with the bread. But all in all a successful evening. Thanks
