Oskar - Das Wirtshaus am Markt in Bayreuth

Everything was great, highly recommended

Very nice service, food came quickly. Everything very clean

Dear Sir or Madam, We had the pleasure of visiting your restaurant "Oskar." Although it was a Monday, the atmosphere was impressive and there were many guests. We would especially like to thank two employees who looked after us excellently during our visit – Sophia and Stella. Their friendly and attentive service made our evening particularly enjoyable. We wish them both all the best for the future and thank them sincerely for their great work. Sincerely, Alexander Müller

Saturday lunchtime very very crowded. Sidepull tap, very great!

Original Bavarian inn with a beautifully covered inner courtyard/atrium. All in all very authentic. Service very quick and very very friendly. Food was as described and expected. Zwickelbier is extremely tasty.

Oskar is a large restaurant with German cuisine. The ambience is nice, everyone is sure to find a spot that they like in the different areas. The waitresses were without exception friendly and very attentive to the children (e.g. that the children's food came to the table in the shortest possible time so that their first hunger was satisfied). Really great! The food was very good - there was nothing to complain about. The spaetzle is excellent, the schnitzel is soft and the knuckle is soft. The portions are large and what you can't finish can be packed up. Prices are high, but still okay given the central location. We will definitely be guests again on our next visit to Bayreuth!

In itself very good. Great environment/ambience. You can sit well and the staff is reasonably friendly. Food was also very good, but a bit expensive for the quantity

VERY tasty and for the price you really can't complain (e.g. €18.90 for a knuckle with potato dumpling, sauerkraut and beer sauce). Loft-like winter garden in which I unexpectedly felt comfortable. Definitely recommend it and would be happy to come again.

I am absolutely delighted at their service more so because they accommodate us in spite of a very rush hour Sunday lunchtime 😀. Well cooked, great tasting German dishes, in a traditional enterior, dry flowers , everything just beautiful. Must visit if you are near Bayreuth city centre.

Always a culinary experience, still a pleasure even after 20 years. Children are also welcome guests. Strollers can be easily accommodated in the rear atrium. Children's chairs... everything is ready.

Great restaurant! Super nice ambience, perfect service and really really good food! Highly recommended!

Great food at a reasonable price. Friendly and attentive service. Bravo, I'd be happy to come back anytime.

Simply great! Highly recommended and if you are in the area you have to try it. It is one of the best restaurants in Germany. We ate at the bar because there were no free tables in the room (Germans know where to go to eat delicious, cheap and most importantly 100% homemade, enough Döner) We will definitely repeat! Schmeckt wie Heimat!!!

Absolutely top, highly recommended. Everything is perfect, the ambience, the staff, the food and the selection of drinks!!

I especially recommend the Sauerbraten with gingerbread sauce. I haven't tasted anything this delicious in a long time. The waiters were polite and very attentive. I sat right in the middle of the large hall, which was unfortunately quite loud and hectic. A typical large inn. There's also an adjoining room, though, and it's probably much more pleasant there. Conclusion: I highly recommend Oskar. Just make a reservation in advance to get a nicer seat.

We were on holiday in Bayreuth and this restaurant was basically the only one still open - an absolute stroke of luck! The food was excellent, the atmosphere was very atmospheric and the service was super friendly and attentive. An all-round successful experience – highly recommended!

Great service, delicious food, good atmosphere, would love to come back.

The inn was recommended to us by a friend who advised us to make an online reservation. This turned out to be beneficial as the place was pretty full on Thursday evening. That's why I was a little skeptical about whether it was a good idea to choose this restaurant. But that was absolutely unjustified. The service and food were world class! After taking the order, we had the drinks after 2 minutes and the food after a good 10 minutes. The staff noticed immediately when a glass was empty and asked whether everything was to our satisfaction. With a roughly estimated number of guests of 100 to 120 people, this is a strong performance. Especially when you take the quality of the food into account. I had a pork knuckle with side dishes and for me it was the best I've eaten in a pub in years (as a butcher's son, I'm picky ;) ). My wife was also very happy with her “beer steak”. All in all very, very good! You can also tip more for the service. In this case I would like to give 10 stars, but unfortunately only five are possible!

I can only recommend the food 👍

I ate here during a business trip because this restaurant has very good reviews. I can confirm the reviews. Great service, pleasant atmosphere, good food. Something that marred the positive impression: - Very loud acoustically, at least in the side area where I sat. - The food was not seasoned or only lightly seasoned. (Yes, I know it's a matter of taste, but my portion was just as good as a baby's.) - The side salad had no dressing. Nothing really bad, but I didn't have any salt and pepper, vinegar, or oil at the table either. As I said, just little things to look out for. Otherwise, I enjoyed it very much.

Really great restaurant, rustic, has a Hofbrauhaus atmosphere, wonderful. The food was great and the waitress was very friendly

Pretty out of touch for a tourist shed…

A great restaurant, it was very tasty and a welcoming atmosphere in all areas. The service is very friendly and attentive. A big compliment to the kitchen, despite so many customers, they still cook very well and serve wonderfully.

Mass tourism with rapid transit

Quaint restaurant right on the Bayreuth market square. Tastefully furnished in Upper Franconia. Food is very good, but at peak times it can get very busy, which can affect service. Still definitely worth a visit.

Very nice service, great ambience, excellent food. The gravy was amazing

We stayed here two evenings in a row in October without a reservation. Each time they made it possible to find a place for us. Of course, we thought it was great that the waiter remembered us on day two! Super nice restaurant and absolutely excellent food! Really very attentive staff, but not too intrusive, just perfect! We'll be happy to come back when we're in Bayreuth again! :)

Very, very tasty Franconian cuisine. Absolutely great and attentive service in great traditional clothing. Gladly again

Everything is wonderful here! Before and after the renovation.

Delicious sauerbraten with friendly service, what more could you want ;))

The Oskar restaurant impresses with a cozy atmosphere and a great selection of Franconian specialties. The Schäufele are particularly recommended – crispy, juicy and with a delicious sauce. The beer selection is also great and goes perfectly with the hearty food. The service was friendly and attentive, although the waiting times were a little longer, especially when the house was full. Prices are reasonable for the quality and central location. Overall, a great restaurant for Franconian cuisine in Bayreuth – we’d be back again!

Super tasty and very friendly. We stopped here on the way through and would do it the same way again 😃

Great restaurant. Gives a real traditional German feel

Good food expensive prices staff ok

Very nice atmosphere, great service and always consistent quality! It's definitely worth a visit :) I can particularly recommend the Schäuferle 😋

Eaten very well, brisk service, always worth a visit. Update: We were guests again on March 1, 2025 after renovations and were very satisfied with the newly designed restaurant. Keep it up!

It's okay to stop off in between. Culinary highlights are not to be expected. But they weren't expected either. The prices are stable for a lunch menu. Otherwise everything was clean and friendly. Very nice staff.

The only thing that made it a unique experience for us was that we had to wait a bit to get a seat (without a reservation). In terms of quality, it was one of the best meals I have ever eaten! A huge thank you to the kitchen! The service was in no way inferior. We were immediately warmly greeted and even after we had our food, we kept asking if everything was okay. My highlight is always the Cola Wheat drink. For dinner we had the beer steak, the snack platter and a vegan schnitzel, everyone was extremely happy and the portions were sufficient! It was my first and certainly not my last visit to the Oskar!!! Thank you for that!

First I ordered a large water, a coffee and a tea. However, the latter were forgotten and only served after an hour after repeated requests. The roast beef was ordered medium rare, without mayo and fries - unfortunately the steak was completely cooked through and mayo was spread over the steak and salad. Service and cooking skills leave a lot to be desired. Although the ambience for a business lunch was satisfactory, overall, in my experience, the restaurant is not recommended.

We came here after the previously visited car dealership recommended this restaurant to us. A beautiful and elegant restaurant in the center of Bayreuth. Super delicious food and drinks. The service is extremely friendly and reliable. I can really only recommend it!

Always worth a visit. It was absolutely delicious 😋

Was wondering how this restaurant gets 4.6*? After being there, I know. Because they can! Many thanks to the restaurant team, it was very tasty and pleasant to be your guests!

Home-style cooking, we can recommend it. Extremely friendly staff. Beautiful ambience.

Ein tolles Lokal , Essen war sehr gut , wir saßen etwas länger , hatten ein volles Bier , wir wollten noch was zum Essen bestellen, uns wurde dann gesagt das der Tisch in 15 Min. belegt ist und das nicht geht . Könnten evtl. An einen anderen Tisch wechseln. Hätte man schon früher kommunizieren sollen . Der Abend ist abrupt geendet . Schade !

Grilled pork knuckle, Kraut Klos and Sos, delicious, top and absolutely full

Starter: Lukewarm goat cheese with hazelnut crust Main courses: Roast beef from pastured beef & mushroom schnitzel Quality & taste are excellent. Service very courteous & friendly. Highly recommended. Bayreuthers are also very happy to come over for dinner and have a lovely evening! :)

Super zentral, gemütlich zum Sitzen, Hausmannskost und fränkisches Bier, freundlicher Service. Wir bekamen einen Platz ohne reservieren zu müssen. Gerne wieder

After the recent renovation, Oskar - Das Wirtshaus am Markt has reinvented itself. The new entrance creates a more inviting welcome and the completely modernized interior feels fresh and contemporary. While it used to be more traditional, the decor is now calmer and more stylish without losing the cozy charm. The combination of warm colors, modern furniture and a well-thought-out room layout makes the restaurant more pleasant and spacious. The menu continues to offer the familiar classics, but in an atmosphere that fits perfectly into modern times. In short: Oskar 2.0 is a successful metamorphosis - proven quality in a new look!

Super tasty food, reasonable price. Food really very good, atmosphere very very nice. Like the old hunting lodge of a nobleman. Very nice, absolutely recommended!

We chose this inn based on the positive reviews and were not disappointed. We were warmly welcomed and were able to choose a table. Service is very friendly. We decided on Oskar's beer steak and the juicy roast pork, the taste was really delicious, the meat was tender and the sauce went perfectly with it. If you like hearty Franconian and rustic food, this is the right place. Highly recommended.

Reservation recommended! Authentic and cozy atmosphere thanks to the dimmed lighting, the service is friendly and very quick. The food also tasted very good - from the Schäufele to the vegan dishes. All in all, an absolute recommendation!

We were there yesterday. Great service, great food and a great new atmosphere. Thank you, we'll be happy to come back.

We enjoyed it very much, the choice of food was large, perfect!

The portions could be a little larger but the condition and ambience make up for it.

Very good 👍 But the kitchen closes at 10 p.m. You should write on the website

A great restaurant. We had very quick and courteous waiters. The food and beer were great too😍

Had dinner at Oskar yesterday. Were very satisfied overall. It was relatively busy. The waitresses were consistently super friendly and accommodating. When we asked if they had some bread for our baby to nibble on, the waiter quickly brought us a basket with 2 slices of baguette so that the mouse was full and occupied. I had Schäufele and when I ordered I forgot to order a bread dumpling instead of a dumpling. But I only noticed this when the food came. I then said to myself, "Oh, I forgot to reorder the dumpling". The waitress noticed this and immediately offered to bring me a bread dumpling instead of the normal dumpling. I thought it was really great. After all, it was my mistake for forgetting to say that.

We were there two evenings in a row in 2024 without a reservation (two people). Although the restaurant was always very busy, we got a nice seat on both evenings (I still definitely recommend making a reservation just to be on the safe side). The guests are well distributed across the individual areas and you sit in a cozy atmosphere. We really enjoyed the food. The staff was attentive and friendly and everything went at exactly the right pace - not too slow and not too fast in the sense of "processing". Bonus point: the employee at the table allocation even recognized us :)

Wir waren 2024 an zwei Abenden hintereinander ohne Reservierung (zwei Personen) vor Ort. Obwohl das Restaurant jedes Mal sehr gut besucht war, haben wir an beiden Abenden einen schönen Platz bekommen (ich empfehle dennoch, zu reservieren). Die Gäste verteilen sich gut auf die einzelnen Bereiche, man sitzt angenehm und das Essen hat uns sehr geschmeckt (insbesondere der Hirschbraten). Das Personal war aufmerksam und freundlich und alles ging ziemlich genau im richtigen Tempo - nicht zu langsam und nicht zu schnell im Sinne einer "Abfertigung". Bonuspunkt: der Mitarbeiter bei der Tischvergabe hat uns sogar wiedererkannt :)

A warm stopover for lunch after drive. Good range of lunch meals. A popular pub, we sat on the high stools to eat. Very good pork meal for me!

Very nice location, would stop there again and again.

Great shop with great staff, delicious food and an interesting atmosphere

I really enjoy coming here every time we are in Bayreuth. The food is absolutely top and at a fair price. The staff is extremely nice and accommodating. We love this restaurant and would highly recommend it to every visitor to Bayreuth.

Quality food,ambient is really nice. I fully recommend to book a table before. On weekends you need some luck to get a table without reservations. Perfect restaurant

The food is very tasty and also varied. The portions are well estimated. The beer selection and desserts are highly recommended! The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Despite a full pub, there was always a waitress there.

Quaint restaurant in Bayreuth's pedestrian zone. The food is typical tavern cuisine. But vegetarians and vegans were also considered. You can also have breakfast here. The Perdonsl was super nice. Gladly again.

Everything was great and delicious

Nicely done restaurant. There are Bavarian delicacies. Really delicious. Nice staff. You should reserve a table during peak times. In summer you can sit outside the door directly in the pedestrian zone.

Good food and a very nice atmosphere.

The best lunch experience in traditional Franconia region. The atmosphere, hospitable waiters, delicious meal with soft local beer... everything was perfect 💯

We were very happy to find vegan dishes on the menu and can particularly recommend the vegan schnitzel.

Exceptionally beautiful restaurant in a stylish ambience, very tasty food, nice, courteous staff...

We spontaneously reserved a small Christmas party for my employees. Great food and then there were visits from boys on the road who have been on the road for 3 years and a day without money, cell phones or internet in their careers.

Visited two days in a row and ordered the same dish twice 👍

Delicious food, fast service, cozy pub.

Nice, quick service. Nice restaurant...super delicious food.

A cozy atmosphere in the heart of the city of Bayreuth with an extensive selection of typical dishes: the Franconian sauerbraten with delicious sauce and the pork shovel are recommended. The service is very friendly.

I was there for breakfast and it was good:) good/modern selection and nice service

Fantastic food in a traditional setting. Schnitzel and cheese spaetzle were very tasty. The local beer completed the whole thing wonderfully. We would recommend the restaurant to everyone. Price performance excellent.

It was very tasty again, I would love to come here again and again. Very nice and attentive service 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

English version of menu provided. Though I think it could have been a little abbreviated. Strated to compare to the regular German language. Immediately noted that a separate page of daily specials was not in the English version.

Great ambience, very attentive and friendly service, excellent food. We really enjoyed it, many thanks to the great team.

Great location to end a successful day. The food is fantastically tasty but the service is super friendly, fast, courteous and always with a smile. We were more than satisfied.

The food at the Oskar Wirtshaus was really delicious, that has to be emphasized. Unfortunately the impression was greatly marred by the poor service. We had to wait 20 minutes to order drinks and another 30 minutes to be able to pay. Then three other tables in front of us were also cashed in, even though we had waited longer. What was particularly disappointing was that it was the only time so far that the waitress didn't wish us a good appetite - a small gesture that could perhaps have improved the service a little. It's a shame, because the kitchen deserves a better rating.

The sauerbraten was simple delicious. The service was very friendly and attentive. A must when you are in Bayreuth.

A very nice, large place and good service. It is usually full, it is advisable to reserve. We went on 12/24. And I loved that they offered free cava and cookies to accompany the breakfasts.

Schönes Restaurant mit typischer Ambiente. Das Essen war gut bis sehr gut. Die Preise leicht hoch, aber i.O. Die Bedienung gut. Ein wenig zu laut.

We had reserved for December 25th, 2024. Unfortunately I can't give a review of the kitchen because we didn't eat there. There was an unbearable noise around the table assigned to us where a comfortable dinner would not have been possible. We then ate in the Indian restaurant right next door in a quiet atmosphere.

Fine Franconian cuisine. Honest food and honest portions. Highly recommended!

I was unlucky. Sour sauce did not suit roast beef. Otherwise a great restaurant.

For me the best pub I've been to so far. We always book ourselves into Bayreuth and take an hour-long drive to be able to spend an evening at Oskar. The same happened last night - and as always it was friendly, cozy, authentic, delicious... simply perfect.

This is the best Franconian restaurant in the area. There are always many people diners, so it is recommended to plan your time in advance.

Very tasty pork knuckles, very tender and very crispy rind and great taste. Highly recommended. Very friendly and very nice staff, you feel really comfortable. Very tasty dark beer!!! and delicious “Willi” We were there again very tasty Schäufele. Very friendly service.

Very good Bavarian food. Had English menus. Can recommend the schnitzel and sauerbraten. Beautiful historic building. It was very busy, you should make a reservation in advance. Parking can be a bit tough.

Was very good, good service and good ambience.

Very nice location and will be even more beautiful in the new year

Quaint inn, very good German food. Apparently others see it that way too, because it was packed at midday during the week.

a very nice, sociable place to unwind with good food, a nice cold beer or a glass of wine. Very cozy and relaxing, we will definitely be coming back!!!

Very nicely decorated. Friendly staff.

It was our first time at the Oskar and we were initially surprised that it was so big. From the outside it looked like a small inn. But the atmosphere is really inviting and the food came very quickly, even though it was busy. It was delicious and the service was great! Only to be recommended!
