Old Bank in Karlsruhe

It's always a good idea to visit the Old Bank! Ideal if you go to the theater ;)

very friendly service, super varied, tasty breakfast, we didn't manage to eat everything. Highly recommended

A nice atmosphere and very tasty food and drinks. The service was quick and friendly. We were there with a large group, which was ideal for that. And you can also go to the theater that is connected 😀

Great ambience. The food was really very tasty. There were 50 of us and we all felt good throughout. They all tried very hard to do justice to our large group. Quite a few people ordered apple strudel, which was very tasty, but with each order the ice cream became less and the fruit decoration was saved -> that shouldn't happen, because food envy arose and that frustrated people. The photo was of the very good version -> everyone was still thrilled. 😂😇

The food is very tasty and the cocktails and drinks are generally great. In summer you can sit outside very nicely, but inside is also beautiful. Price performance is very good.

The place is very spacious and stylish. It is a place where you can spend time with your friends and family, without being ostentatious.. I don't know the prices.. but I think they are not too high prices..

I can't judge the food, I was there for salsa dancing on a Monday evening! Great location! The lighting and the high ceilings create a really elegant atmosphere and the floor is also suitable for dancing. Criticism: 7.50 for a wine spritzer is a bit too much. Greetings from the Palatinate!

Highly recommended! At first we thought there was a play going on, but it turned out it was a salsa course, it was very nice and interesting. We also enjoyed dinner and had some entertainment 😊😄. The girl who served us was super nice and professional. We thank you!

I thought it was a shame that we weren't informed that an event was taking place and we couldn't stay. Bad service.

Very nice atmosphere and great, very attentive and friendly service

Great service Even though it was full, we didn't have to wait after the theater Enjoy your meal

Very tasty food, good service, short waiting time and very nice atmosphere

Very nice service, especially Chris! Food tasted great and came quickly.

I only recommend the place to a limited extent. The ambience is beautiful, service was good. Unfortunately the breakfast was disappointing. Too little, loveless and very expensive. Also the drinks. Unfortunately. I'll still come back to try the evening menu. Because the rooms are great.

OLD bank in Karlsruhe. 2.2025 The Alte Bank is a restaurant with a bar and a very large beer garden right in the center of Karlsruhe. And this is in a very nice place with lots of trees that provide shade for the beer garden. There are enough parking garages and parking options. The Alte Bank is also very easy to reach by public transport. The location is modern but comfortably furnished. The large windows give you enough space to look over the square. Everything is also very well maintained. The FOOD here is very 👍🏻 good. The selection of drinks is large. The staff is very nice and attentive. There are also events here, which are very well received We'll be back...as we often do. ;-) Greetings Alexander

The food and service are excellent. The noise level is a bit loud due to the high ceilings.

Service very friendly and attentive

Very tasty food, good advice, they are also happy to help with special concerns. Gladly again 🥰

We had dinner in the “Alte Bank” before the theater. Unfortunately my food was cold, so the waitress took it away to warm it up. There were no spices on the tables for seasoning either. And the dessert (hot love) had too little raspberry sauce and it was already spread and not warm!! Price/performance: Prices for KA are okay, but you can still work on the performance!!

We reserved a table in advance, no table ready when we got there and only noticed our reservation when we asked. Had to sit upstairs, more a waiting area than dining area. Rather expensive for what you get. I had a Pinsa and can 100% say it was a frozen Pinsa warmed up in the oven. €16! Even the salami wasn't salami, was Sujuk.. Mushrooms looked like few days old and tasted as such. The dough was really chewy and tasted like a Dr. Oetker.. Bad... €6 for a warm beer topped off the whole experience.

Delicious food and very friendly service.

Price-performance ratio is not right. Tastes good, small portions great price

Nice ambience and ideal start to the theater evening

This was our first time here and we were disappointed. My wife had an Alte Bank salad where the meat was fried to death. Her drink, a wine spritzer, was bland and served in an unclean glass. My pork loin was also fried to death and the mushrooms were canned. There was a high level of noise. The price-performance ratio wasn't right. The only thing we liked was the service.

Great ambience, great food and very friendly staff - we'll definitely be back👍🏻

The service is really great. I come regularly and am always greeted so warmly and friendly. Special thanks to Tamara & Finn, who simply put their heart and soul into their job and usually already know what I want to drink today if I don't even know it yet ;) And if I don't know, Ragi behind the bar is my savior. I simply tell him a direction I would like to take today and every time he gives me a drink that more than exceeds my expectations. Thanks for that 🥰

Nice restaurant, very nice service, very tasty food, always happy, but order a table in advance and everything is usually reserved because it is right next to the Chamber Theater. Great cheese spaetzle, with fresh and fried onions, good prices

Extremely delicious espresso martini, great ambience. Definitely coming back. Service is very attentive and friendly

Practical, as the coats could be dropped off without queuing before the visit to the Chamber Theater. Then we enjoyed a delicious dinner in a beautiful, spacious yet cozy atmosphere. Service was friendly and all in all a nice start to a wonderful evening.

It was a great evening!! Needs repetition 😎

A nice memory on Valentine's Day. Loving table decorations, good atmosphere and courteous service.

Great location, awesome cocktails, Pink Panther pure seduction. Owner very friendly and the sisters first class,... spontaneous a capella performance was another highlight of the evening. We'll be back, very sociable here

Positive things straight away, ambience and service are excellent. Very nice and courteous service. But price-performance an absolute disgrace! On Saturday, February 1st, 2025, two of us had breakfast at the Alte Bank. We chose “Beauty and the Beast” and 2 lattes for breakfast for 2 people. Drinks came quickly and the food followed after just under 10 minutes. For €34.90! we got 1 portion of scrambled eggs (3-4 eggs?), 1 tomato, 1 mozzarella, 2 small cream cheese, 2 jam, 2 butter, 1 mini yoghurt and 2 grain and 2 normal rolls. Ok, exactly what was stated on the menu, but the quantity is everything else that you would expect for this price or even for 2 people :-( Of course everything became more expensive, but even if you add up all the organic quality items, we won't come up with a price that justifies it for a long time. Sorry “Alte Bank”, we were always happy to come, but with this price-performance ratio it doesn’t make sense for us. A breakfast & 2 milk coffees for almost 45€???!!! And still hungry afterwards :-(

Unfortunately the menu has been changed and is significantly reduced compared to the menu published on the website. I ordered Wiener Schnitzel. Meat was good, which is what you would expect with veal. But what was served was more like canteen food. Breading was soft to mushy (schnitzel was probably kept warm or warmed up) lettuce leaf for decoration was really super tiny and also wilted to mushy. All in all the food was disappointing.

Cocktails and Pinsa Caprese TOP! Great, attentive service, we spent a wonderful evening in the Alte Bank and we enjoy coming here regularly.

As a family, we had made a reservation for brunch for 6 people right on Christmas and were looking forward to cake stands with cheese, sausage, fruit, etc. As advertised on the homepage. But... You could only choose one roll with sausage or cheese or scrambled eggs. It was a complete failure, absolutely not recommended. We were really disappointed

It was nice, we'll be back on March 20th

Nice cafe with delicious cakes and friendly service. Gladly again

From the outside it's a very inconspicuous restaurant that you wouldn't recognize as one if you didn't know. Inside it is very large and spacious and the theater is also included. The staff was friendly. The food was good too. Can you go there again?

Very nice staff (especially Michelle :)) and really good food! I'd love to come back here.

Super cozy and nice staff. The food is delicious and the price is right too 👌🏼

Price-performance is not right. I could have cooked the meal at home using ready-made products. The level from before has plummeted. Too bad.

Great location. No WiFi despite advertising on the door. House sparkling wine and espresso so-so...

Unfortunately too loud at peak times. Sound-absorbing elements are missing. Food portions not appropriate for the price. Otherwise ok.

Aufgrund früherer, sehr positiven Erlebnisse haben wir den geplanten Theaterabend mit einem Abendessen in der alten Bank verbunden. Entgegen aller bisherigen Erfahrungen, anscheinend mit einem neuen Wirt - einfach nur enttäuschend, wenn auch hochpreisig ! Das Essen teilweise völlig daneben (das Steak blutig statt medium), der Service nur noch unterirdisch (30 Min auf Getränke gewartet, der Beilage Salat kam nach dem Essen und zum Zahlen nochmals 30 Min gewartet) Definitiv nicht mehr !

Little choice and food tastes like nothing. Fries tasteless and schnitzel not seasoned. No salt or pepper at the table but at the people who have coffee and cake. Never come back.

What was described on the menu was not on the plate. Half of it was missing. Even after complaining, not the whole meal was brought, but a 30% discount on the dish. The food itself is also expensive for what you get. It's a shame because it's otherwise a very nice location.

I would like to see a clear line when it comes to food, e.g. Baden or Alsatian, unfortunately many different styles

Unfortunately, the food wasn't particularly good and expensive. Pinsa leaves. No Kässpätzle at all.

Very friendly and attentive employees

The 'Alte Bank' used to be recommended. Well not so much. The menu selection is very poor. By the way, many of the dishes to be ticked here in the rating have not been offered for a long time! The rigatoni that I ate yesterday cannot be found here at all in the list. Neither did my companion's rump steak. Both dishes tasted "okay". Salad dishes and rigatoni are way too expensive. I also wrote to the Alte Bank a few weeks ago and said that the quality and quantity had deteriorated significantly. They apologized and said they were a new operator and would improve. Unfortunately it doesn't have that. Very unfortunate! However, the service was very good yesterday!

It was great again, thanks for everything :)

Old Bank is a place that truly knows how to take care of its customers! I asked for a unique drink – mulled beer with syrup, my favorite treat on cold winter evenings. The bartenders not only rose to the challenge but went above and beyond to make it happen. All with a smile on their faces and absolute professionalism. What’s more, they didn’t charge me a single extra cent for it! The service is top-notch, and the atmosphere in the bar is fantastic. I will definitely come back! Highly recommended!

- The glasses were dirty. - There was no hot chocolate. - Cream cheese had expired 2 months ago, there were no new ones because they were all expired. - The menu card on the Internet is old and no longer exists. - The prices on the menu are overpriced for the quality of the food. - The menu said freshly squeezed orange juice, the waitress then pointed out to us that it wasn't freshly squeezed, but the price remained the same - Toilets would also need renovation and it stinks extremely + the location is nice but unfortunately that alone doesn't work!!

At the "Alte Bank" you can eat really delicious food and the staff is very friendly. The drinks as well as the food are of very high quality. We'll be back :-)

Went there on Saturday November 23rd, 2024, at the beginning everything went very well until we waited a long time to place an order, unfortunately after a good 10 minutes I ran out of patience and then left again. When I see how many waiters work here for the tables. Then I have the structure in this Loading not understood. Sorry, that was my first and last visit. The work structure, which waiter should serve which table, must be learned. The waiter in charge runs past our table 4 times while reading. Unfortunately completely disappointed and won't be coming back. I hope the others are luckier than me. SORRY

Because there wasn't much going on on Sunday, eating there with our seniors was very pleasant. It was quiet and the service was attentive. However, the stairs are only partially cheap...

Super nice service, great ambience

Visited for the Comedy Night. Booked a table online for 2 people for one hour before the show started. Arrived on time, the place overcrowded, and no table was available. Waited 45 mins, then we were seated on a share table with 2 other people. Why did I even bother to make a reservation? Ordered the vegan pinsa (one of 3 vegan dishes on the "summer menu") which was disappointing - nice base but little effort was made with the toppings which were drenched in tomato sauce. Overpriced for what it was (in my opinion). The service staff was friendly and attentive, but that won't motivate us enough to visit again. Suggestions to "Alte Bank" Management - get better organised for event nights, and put some more effort in your (vegan) food options.

Our waitress was absolutely sweet and accommodating, the location is also nice, unfortunately the food was a disappointment. Dressing bland, chicken dry. Menu unspectacular.

The service was very friendly and the food was very tasty.

Menu is manageable and ok. Food was good. Service was very good.

Wir warten nach dem Theater noch an der Bar was trinken. Also, wenn sich in einer 0,4 er Hauslimonade mehr Eis als Wasser befindet ist das nicht ok. Wenn in das Glas überhaupt noch 0,2 reingepasst hat. Für mich ist das Abzocke.

Service was great, the selection and quality of the food was better...

We ordered a veggie burger and a regular burger. Both burgers tasted terribly bad. The patty of the meat burger was completely dry, there was no rocket and there was no cheese to be found. The buns on both burgers were hard and dry. A cabbage and carrot salad was included as a side dish. The salad tasted like it wasn't quite good anymore. The only good thing was the fries. They were the worst burgers we had ever eaten. The service person was very nice and tried very hard.

One of the most convincing establishments I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. Starting with the excellent selection of music, which created a wonderful ambience, to the waitress, who was very courteous and patient with us as we were a bit overwhelmed with the great offer. From Swabian Maultaschen to delicious schnitzel or sumptuous salads, the Baden heart feels at home here. The local Hoepfner beer is a must!! Thank you for this lovely evening!

It was quite good, then went to the Chamber Theater,

We went to the restaurant for the first time before a play. It's a very nice atmosphere, our service was very friendly and attentive and our food was extremely tasty 😋. It was the perfect start to the evening at the theater.

Nice restaurant in an attractive atmosphere. The high ceiling makes the whole thing seem a bit too bright and open. But the place isn't just called Alte Bank, it's also one, so it's very okay. The selection and quality of the food is good average. The staff was pleasantly friendly and accommodating. Ideal location if you then want to go to the Chamber Theater in the same building. We were very satisfied.

The food is lukewarm and completely tasteless. The rice was totally overcooked and mushy. Noise level as loud as in a train station hall. Price-performance ratio too high. Friendly staff. Overall not recommended.

A nice location in combination with a visit to the theater.

Cold and inedible Pljeskavica were meatballs with sheep's cheese sprinkled on top. The service simply ignored it

The dish did not correspond to what was offered on the menu. Instead of minced steak filled with sheep's cheese, there were 2 small meatballs with a fatty filling 😁 and 3 small cubes of sheep's cheese! The waiter responded to my complaint very calmly. It wasn't the first time that customers were disappointed. The delivery butcher is to blame🤷‍♂️ There wasn't even an espresso as an excuse. 😬 Conclusion, not again so soon!

Very nicely decorated restaurant, super nice, attentive staff, it was a great evening! Highly recommended! Ma. But you should reserve in advance.

We were very satisfied with the service and the food. Had very friendly and nice service. It won't be the last time.

Very cozy, delicious cakes, delicious coffee, friendly service

The restaurant makes a cool impression and the service was very friendly and attentive For me the food was unloving in terms of taste and presentation.

great and bright atmosphere, nice classic café far from Starbucks & friends, good food, highly recommended

The burger was very dry and the bun was burnt and the coleslaw was off. However, this was only communicated after inquiry.

Table reserved online. That was good. It was very crowded and very loud. The service was friendly. Unfortunately we had to wait a long time for drinks and food. The homemade lemonade is delicious. Tarte flambée, salad and burgers were good.

The food is delicious, but the selection is clear. It's always nice to stop here in front of the Chamber Theater.

Very nice ambience and the food is fine and well priced

Great location, very friendly staff and the salad was also delicious 😋.

Great view, unfortunately the food wasn't that tasty and expensive. We waited for half an hour. Waiters are nice, but we won't go there again.

Chicly furnished old building with impressively high ceilings.

Thank you for the lovely time with you. Our waitress Tamara was simply great. Really fast, friendly and very personable.

Pleasant atmosphere, always recommended

Very tasty food and highly recommended.

Friendly staff, very attentive. Food came very quickly and was delicious! Highly recommended, would love to come back ;)

Great service, thank you Polya🫶🏽

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the "Alte Bank" restaurant and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. The ambience of the restaurant is inviting and charming. The furnishings, which are reminiscent of the building's history as a former bank, give the place a unique atmosphere. The service in the restaurant was also first class. The staff like Finn and Polya were very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. My order was served promptly and I felt well looked after throughout the entire visit. Overall, my visit to the “Alte Bank” restaurant was an extremely positive experience. I highly recommend it and look forward to dining there again soon :)

Relatively small menu with moderate prices. The taste is good and the portions are sufficient. It wasn't busy, but it still took quite a long time before we could order the food. Very nice atmosphere. Mobile gourmet block accepted without any problems.

Very nice restaurant to start an evening at the theater. Unfortunately, the selection of dishes has been significantly reduced since last year and is a bit unimaginative. Too bad.

As always, very tasty. Good upscale home cooking. Service top. Food came quickly.

Very cool location in the heart of Karlsruhe!!!!! The burgers were surprisingly top, surprising because they were definitely homemade patties and this is not a given everywhere. Service top 👍🏻 Thank you very much Always my pleasure

Ich war neulich in diesem Restaurant und die Terrasse hat mich echt umgehauen! Die Atmosphäre dort ist einfach genial – super entspannt, mit viel Grün und richtig gemütlich. Perfekt, um den Abend draußen zu verbringen.

I was at this restaurant recently and the terrace really blew me away! The atmosphere there is simply brilliant – super relaxed, with lots of greenery and really cozy. Perfect for spending the evening outside.

It's nice to sit outside and eat delicious and very good service

Very nice location for warm summer evenings, be sure to reserve

Very good food. Nice interior and nice beer garden. Staff always friendly and accommodating. Always my pleasure.
