Pauline im Europagarten in Frankfurt am Main

The ambience is really nice, although it can get louder when it's full. In terms of price-performance ratio, the food is always okay, but unfortunately the service has a lot of problems keeping up. This means that the drink you ordered with your meal might not arrive until the end of the meal, or the dirty dishes might end up piling up on the neighboring table. Nevertheless, the staff tries very hard 👍

Been there many times and have been satisfied time and time again! In the summer when there is too much going on, it sometimes takes a really long time before you can order and what can you say - it's in the park and the wasps like that too

Service good, child-friendly, food mediocre

The restaurant was very nice. Service and food were good.

Nice location with friendly staff! In summer you can sit outside very nicely and the summer garden is barrier-free!

Food was perfect. Unfortunately, the male waiter was a bit overwhelmed. Maybe new, not so bad.

Great place in the neighborhood to relax and have a meal

Hello guys, I had dinner there again today with my family. The food is absolutely insane. We recommend the farm duck with dumplings and red cabbage. Add a Pauliner Oktoberfest beer and you're off. 🍺😀😋 So don't wait, come here and enjoy. Have a nice evening and many thanks to the restaurant. Vg, Uwe Schröder 😀

Although the website states that the restaurant is open until 11 PM when we are arrive at 20 45 pm, we were informed by the waiter that the kitchen was already closed. We felt the communication could have been clearer, as the approach lacked courtesy

Tasty food and very nice service. We will come back again!

Very nice context, with large windows that allow you to enjoy the surrounding public greenery. Typical dishes and generous salads. The service was a little slow. It does not have dedicated parking, but there is free parking on the streets surrounding it. Excellent compromise for those who work on the exhibition stands, as it can be reached on foot in 5 minutes from entrance 9

Food and service beyond expectations

Booked a table about a month in advance. On the booking, it said that we have it until 11pm, but at around 1830, the waitress informed us that they need the table for other guests coming around 1930… Food came out good, but after about an hour, me and my friend got super nauseous and spent the next 20 min in the bathroom. We ate the same thing and definitely got food poisoning…the others in our group ate something different didn’t have any symptoms, so it was definitely something wrong with the food we ate there.

We had a delightful stop at Pauline im Europagarten during our bicycle tour and enjoyed a refreshing Radler beer. The drink was just what we needed—crisp and satisfying after a long ride. The atmosphere of the restaurant was pleasant, and the staff were friendly. It's a great spot to take a break and recharge. The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is that the service was a bit slow, but overall, it was a very enjoyable experience. I would definitely recommend it for a relaxing break on your journey. -------------------------------------------------- ------------------- During our bike tour we made a pleasant stop at Pauline's in the Europagarten and enjoyed a refreshing shandy.

Wanted a quick drink at 10:02 p.m. but couldn't place an order. Supposedly open until 11 p.m., but "last order" at 10 p.m. There were about 15 guests sitting outside, so we weren't the only ones... You would probably wish for a little flexibility in vain in Germany, a service desert. It's a shame, especially since the dining options in the area aren't the most extensive anyway. No statement can be made about the quality of the food and drinks, but the service is poor.

Located in the middle of the European Quarter. You can sit outside. Few dishes to choose from. Food quality and quantity ok. Some of our group didn't receive their food until the others had already finished.

The architecture is quite nice. Unfortunately, the price-performance ratio is not right for what you get. It's OK.

Delicious food! Unfortunately a lot of wasps but friendly and accommodating staff.

Nice and fast..good food and drinks

We were looking forward to a nice dinner yesterday. Unfortunately, I have to realize in retrospect that I really wanted to sit outside. At first there were three of us. At the latest when the drinks were served (2x lemonade, 1 beer) the first uninvited guests came to our table (some defenses were still successful). But then, with the meal (3x schnitzel) 10 to 20 of these uninvited guests came at the same time. Eating in peace was no longer possible. When I asked the waitress what we could do about it, they simply ignored it. In hindsight you are always wiser, we should have gone inside with plates and wasps, but you hope that somehow things will get better. When I commented when paying that we couldn't enjoy the food because of the wasps, there was a really harsh answer: "What can I do about that?" etc. We were expecting at least a 'sorry' or 'I'm really sorry' , but nothing like that. There was no prior warning about the wasps, otherwise we would have eaten there, nor any assistance during the meal or an understanding reaction at the end. Too bad. The food, as far as we can tell, was quite good. That's why 3 stars. When we left and the restaurant was now full, the wasps had to disperse.

Generous spaces and good preparations, I recommend it and would go back.

A nice beer garden with a good selection of Bavarian specialties and more. Paulaner beer and a beautiful setting nestled in a public park

Very good food and drinks. Large portions. Unfortunately there are a lot of wasps there in summer.

Nice service and good, solid food.

Solid food but for the price it could be more. Location and service were A1.

The location is really pretty, but that's about it. At first we wanted a table inside, but the employee told us that there were no tables left inside. Two minutes later, the next colleague offered 3 tables to choose from. The order went quite quickly. Unfortunately, one order was wrong - the chanterelle schnitzel was supposed to come with spaetzle as a side dish, which my colleague was looking forward to all day - it then spontaneously came with fried potatoes, without any indication. Stupid. Afterwards we were told that spaetzle was out. The pork knuckle was partly very dry and burnt in other places. Oh well. The salad with the beetroot was mediocre - and the bread that was served from yesterday. We found one service person to be committed, the other two unfortunately less so. We won't come again.

The pork schnitzel has a very strong taste. For the price you can expect more quality. It's quite good there for drinking.

Very nice location and delicious cream mushrooms. Prices raised.

I had one night in Frankfurt and just wanted real German food and beer (and maybe a schnapps) and this place does not disappoint! Such a nice place too, nice people, and with the natural wood and looking out on the park.

Good pub food, delicious beer. Just the right thing for a simple, spontaneous meal with a few friends

Too bad for the wasps, we were invaded.

Excellent meal, friendly waiters as well. Small inconvenience, presence of wasps in quite large numbers... but that didn't stop us from enjoying the meal.

The staff is too slow, we waited an hour just to order, that's how long it takes them to bring us something, and the drinks are terrible, they mix everything with mineral water, not recommended.

Good food with a nice view. Although there are a lot of bees around if you choose to sit outside.

Very good and nice service. Versatile cuisine, something for everyone. Price - performance is in good balance. I really liked it.

Had dinner here on Saturday evening and it was really tasty. We had schnitzel with bacon and fried eggs, fried potatoes. There was a small salad as a side dish. Freshly prepared, served hot. For dessert there was Kaiserschmarrn. The drinks are served chilled. A very friendly and attentive staff. As a warning, there was a hint that there were a lot of wasps outside who were interested in the food and drinks. We then “escaped” from the outside in. A very nice evening.

Unfortunately the service was too overloaded. The ladies did their best. Management should rethink staffing.

The quality of the food should be significantly better for the prices quoted, you can find it much better elsewhere! It's a shame, because it all sounds very imaginative and you sit very nicely!

Very tasty food. Everyone will find something on the menu. There is also something for kids. Children are treated well and are welcome. This time I was just sitting a bit off to the side and the lady came and just couldn't get around. The assistant waitress brought us the glasses quickly and flawlessly. But food? Everything took forever (Friday evening)... Toilet is outside the building under the tower (you have to go out once). This is also the toilet for the Lagom Café opposite. There is meadow all around... you can also step out there for a moment with the kids or the dog. It is not barrier-free, but the toilet only has one staircase. The view of the skyline is really worth seeing.

Schöne Lage und angenehmer Biergarten. Speisekarte verspricht mehr als die Küche halten kann. Für die Preise muss man besseres Essen erhalten. Geschmacklich nur befriedigend.

Traditional German menu card. Good quality food against fair prices. Friendly staff, German beers from Paulaner brewery, very nice!

Their service is extremely bad. The food is not good .

The waiter's attitude toward consumers is extremely contemptuous, very proud, and finally when the waiter threw the bill on the floor for customers to pick up, never encountered such a rude waiter, which left consumers extremely uncomfortable, in order to good mood, please pay more attention. The taste of the dishes is also very average, which ordered a pork chop very dry bite, so left half.

A very cozy beer garden with friendly service. The schnitzel was super tasty and I would love to come back.

great food with a lovely park view. we ordered the apfelwein, meatloaf, and pork schnitzel. service is a bit slow.

Nice friendly beer garden! Very good!

Very friendly staff, really friendly atmosphere!!!

Nice German Oktoberfest style dinner! I enjoyed myself.

"A hipster brewery in a wealthy neighborhood with traditional German cuisine. We couldn't find a good restaurant with excellent food in Frankfurt for a week. The food here also turned out to be a problem. We chose the farmer's plate, which was supposed to contain the best of German cuisine. A piece of pork knuckle (inedible, dry,unchewable), a schnitzel (like the school version of schnitzel steamed in a pot all morning, with moist, peeling breadcrumbs), a piece of meatloaf (the kind from Kaufland) and a grilled white sausage (also the kind from Kaufland). Awfully disgusting cabbage, too sweet potatoes and a single potato dumpling, which was a mushy, gelatinous lump of starch. I can't believe people in Frankfurt actually eat this and consider it good food. But the beer was good."

Wir haben Kaiserschmarren und zwei Getränke bestellt, von dem eins falsch serviert wurde. Unser Kaiserschmarren war steinhart und ungenießbar. Der Service war nett jedoch musste ich die Bedienung mehrmals darum bitten mir die Rechnung zu bringen da bereits die erste Bitte direkt vergessen wurde.

Interesting restaurant with a lookout tower - good food

We have found our new favorite restaurant for tavern cuisine ❤️ - First of all, the service was prompt and friendly. - My schnitzel was super fried, the cheese spaetzle pulled strings, just as it should. My Kaiserschmarrn was the best I've had so far, nice and fluffy and caramelized. - For the price you definitely can't complain. We'd love to come back. And if I really had something to criticize, it would only be the Wiener Schnitzel, which could be a touch thinner and the vanilla sauce with real vanilla, but I definitely can't deduct any points for that.🫶

Awful service, lazy and unfriendly staff

The Pauline, as a contract restaurant of the Paulaner Brewery, is a worthy successor to the former Liebe Laube Hope. The food is upscale, home-style with a Bavarian accent, beautifully prepared and also tastes good. The interior design is attractive, but the best thing is in the beer garden or on the terrace when the weather is nice, when you sit directly in the Europagarten and the children, for whom there is also a rich menu, play in the almost adjacent playground. A visit is also recommended during the Christmas season, when the classic roast goose is on offer.

### Pauline im Europagarten: A Generous German Delight **Feature Ratings:** - Food Quality: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Portion Size: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Service: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐ - Ambiance: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ - Accuracy of Orders: ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ **Overall Score: 4.3** **Main Text:** **Pros:** Pauline im Europagarten offers an exceptional dining experience, with a notable highlight being the food quality and portion sizes. The dishes are flavorful and generously portioned, making it a great value for the money. The steak, despite some issues with doneness, is delicious, and the scallops and stir-fried vegetables are equally impressive. The friendly staff and clean facilities, including well-maintained restrooms, enhance the overall dining experience. The ambiance is pleasant, providing a comfortable atmosphere with good air quality, making it an ideal spot for family gatherings. **Cons:** However, there were some minor drawbacks. The French fry incident, where boiled potatoes were served instead, caused some confusion. It's worth noting that the menu does not specify chips (as per British terminology), which could lead to misunderstandings. Additionally, the steak doneness was inconsistent, with the first medium steak being undercooked and the subsequent medium-well steak arriving well-done. While these issues were not deal-breakers, they did impact the overall satisfaction slightly. **Conclusion:** Despite a few hiccups, Pauline im Europagarten remains a highly recommended spot, especially for those who enjoy hearty German cuisine and generous portions. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, it's a place worth visiting. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is inviting, and the staff is courteous. I look forward to trying more dishes on my next visit! **Confidence Score: 95%** Thank you for reading this review! If you have any other questions or need further details, feel free to ask. Enjoy your next dining experience!

Perfect if you want to try German food. Friendly staff. Liked it.

Wonderfully quiet and interesting location!

Very good food, something for everyone. Always beautiful, adapted to the season. Cozy atmosphere and a nice large beer garden. People very friendly and helpful. Always my pleasure

This is unique, going there is a must. Everything is top notch.

Everything was very nice, the food was delicious, the atmosphere was nice and the staff were friendly and attentive

Overpriced salad: Complaints are apparently not welcome My complaint about incomplete ingredients in the manageable (= quantity and products used) but high-priced salad (€16.70!) was initially ridiculed by the service staff, then the conversation was simply abruptly broken off. Bitter to be treated so disrespectfully as a regular guest for years. I would like to briefly mention here that for this price you can get multiple times as much with various high-quality and fresh ingredients from various Poke Bowl suppliers in Frankfurt. The price-performance ratio for the spring salad offered here is simply bad. Double shame!

I don't know who gives such good reviews. Very nice service, nice place but the food is a disaster. We ordered a salad with asparagus, which consisted of just lettuce, a sliced ​​asparagus and strawberries and cost €17, thin schnitzel, breading ready. I don't think anyone in the kitchen has ever eaten real homemade schnitzel. I don't recommend it.

A nice “beer garden” of a different kind in the Europaviertel. The children can play in the adjacent playground (sand, climbing frames, swings, seesaws and the like) or romp around in the Europagarten, maybe even play football in the football field 100 meters further away, while you can have a beer outside (which is more expensive than other places) or in the rain Enjoy in the cozy indoor area. Even though it has rather higher prices overall, the Pauline is definitely worth a detour. A clear recommendation in the European Quarter!

Absolutely excellent. The service is very friendly, the portions are very good and very generous. You clearly get what you pay for, the value for money is very good. The waitresses are very nice and speak English. The setting is exceptional, calm with the possibility of eating facing the park I highly recommend

I went looking for a restaurant. The staff were really friendly. The food tasted so good that my kids ate it all.

The first and certainly not the last time there. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious. We will definitely be holding our regulars' table there again soon, perhaps outside in the beer garden

Excellent local drinks and meals

The waitresses were very attentive and, above all, quick. If you like home cooking and like to drink Paulaner, this is the right place.

Food ok Service extremely attentive

Came here after flying into Frankfurt and the food is amazing!! :) Portions are quite big and the mushroom sauce for the schnitzel is very flavourful - the currywurst is also is a great choice! Would definitely recommend, service is great and the restaurant is very open with lots of natural lighting - great to come on a nice, sunny day!! :)

Somehow I like the contrast between the artificial Europa Allee and the rustic design of this restaurant. The veal schnitzel was of course great and the freshly tapped Paulaner is hard to beat.

Wir waren mit einer größeren Gruppe im Februar 2024 in der Pauline. Man sitzt hier grundsätzlich sehr angenehm. Ausblick auf etwas triste Häuserblocks eines Neubau-Wohngebiets. Die unmittelbare Umgebung lässt sich am ehesten noch als DDR Plattenbau in „schick“ beschreiben. Die Speisekarten wurden uns auf den Tisch gelegt und leider nicht wie üblich jedem Gast ausgehändigt. Junges Servicepersonal, wirkte tlw. überfordert. Es kamen Sachen doppelt, dann das falsche, dann auch mal lange niemand mehr. Eine Erklärung der Gerichte kann man hier vergessen, man kann im Grunde froh sein, dass man bedient wird, aber das war es dann auch schon. Der Service wirkt alles in allem nicht ganz professionell. Man war aber auch nicht unfreundlich. Die Qualität der Speisen war durchwachsen. Die Spinatknödel waren ohne Geschmack, das Dressing des Marktsalats mit Linsentalern war eine geschmacklose Pampe, das Sellerieschnitzel war ganz OK. Beilagensalate schwommen in geschmacksneutralem Joghurtdressing. Wienerschnitzel kam mit einem Berg Pommes, ungewönlich, aber geschmacklich in Ordnung. Die Currywurst war nichts besonderes. Das Rumpsteak war eine Frechheit. Ziemlich sehnig, zäh und innen noch roh, außen keine Röstaromen, sondern seltsam blaß, etwas abgestandener Geschmack. Ich muss leider sagen, das war meiner Meinung nach nicht mehr ganz frisch. Das Martgemüse als Beilage entpuppte sich als verkochte Zucchini und Paprika. Die Bratkartoffeln waren geschmacklos und latschig, keinesfalls kross. Leider ein Fail für €30. Eingangsbereich eng und es roch leider am Eingang nach Toilette. Muss man nicht wiederholen. Besser fernhalten.

Price/performance is okay, but no chance against its big brother at the cathedral

(For Asians^^) quite large portions, for reasonable prices and still very tasty. When the weather is nice you can also sit comfortably outside. Service was very friendly. We'd love to come back.

Was okay. And you can come here if you are in the corner of Frankfurt and want to eat something. But I wouldn't go there specifically to eat something here.

It's better to come to eat in the summer, as you can then use the beautiful outdoor area! The quality of the food is unfortunately nothing like it used to be 😞

The dining environment here is very pleasant

The food in the inn in the European Quarter tasted excellent. The dishes were carefully prepared and offered a delicious combination of flavors. The service was also commendable, the staff was attentive and friendly. The pleasant atmosphere contributed to the overall experience being extremely positive. A place that I would happily recommend

Definitely a restaurant that is good to visit. The service is nice, the location is cozy. The food was generally quite solid, unfortunately my knuckle was a bit stringy, which made it difficult to cut and eat - but there was absolutely nothing wrong with the taste. Only the beer sauce was a little too thick and a little too spicy for my taste, unlike the very liquid version we know from Bavaria. All in all, a good performance, although a few percent were missing - hence "only" 4 stars.

So for me there is nothing negative to say. Reserved in advance, as always friendly and good service, delicious food at fair prices. See you next year, Gladly again.

Friendly staff. The food is classic Bavarian and very good. Veal was excellent as was the "German meatloaf". The cowberry jam was delicious paired with different meats. The apple wine is dangerous because it is so delicious and easy to drink.

Friendly staff, the food was good and hot, the portions are decent and the ambience and construction is impressive.

Delicious food, cozy and bright location.

Nice service. Cheap and good food. Nice ambience in the middle of the countryside. Glad again.

Besser als erwartet gefiel uns Pauline im Europagarten. Wir waren während eines Messebesuchs zweimal mit Gästen zum Mittagessen im Pauline und wurden freundlich und schnell mit gutem Essen bedient. Wir kommen gerne wieder, auch mit mehreren Geschäftsfreunden.

Sehr gute Küche mit angemessenen Preisen. Gutbürgerliche.

Wir waren 2023 zum traditionellen Gans-Essen in der Pauline, da das immer ein Highlight für uns war. Leider nicht ganz so in 2023. Die vorangegangenen Jahre war die Gans perfekt gegart und die Haut sehr knusprig. Wir haben verstanden, dass die Gänse seit 1 Jahr sehr teuer geworden sind, auf Grund der Vogelgrippe 2022 hat sich das Angebot halbiert. Viele bieten Gans nur noch auf Vorbestellung an. Deshalb waren wir froh, auf Nachfrage in der Pauline Gans auf der Speisekarte zu finden. Leider war die Gans nicht so wie erwartet: die Haut war labberig, so als ob das Tier in der Friteuse vorgegart wurde und in dem Backofen noch einmal warm gemacht. Knödel und Rotkohl waren in Ordnung. Wir geben gerne etwas mehr Geld aus für eine gut und frisvh zubereitete Gans aus. Wir hoffen Pauline findet zurück zur früheren Qualität

Eine schöne Location, die mE von ihrer Lage und den fehlenden Alternativen profitiert. Das Ambiente ist sehr schön, der Service gut, das Essen in Ordnung. Allein fürs Essen gehe ich dort nicht hin.

Ganz okay, ohne Höhepunkte. Der Service war aufmerksam und flott.

Das Essen ist sehr gut und vielfältig, die Bedienung aufmerksam und sehr freundlich, leider nimmt man den Essensgeruch mit nach Hause.

Gestern Abend zu Gast im Pauline, wo man herzlich empfangen wurde. Getränke und Essen waren zügig da und qualitativ sowie geschmacklich hochwertig! Ich war sehr zufrieden. Gerne wieder

Tolles Essen mit einem Klasse Service. Nett, und nicht aufdringlich

Nice place to eat a proper schnitzel.

Wunderschönes rustikal-modernes-bayrisches Ambiente. Super leckeres normal-preisiges Essen mit wirklich tollem Service

Venturing into Europapark, a picturesque haven, we found ourselves surrounded by the beauty of nature. The park, a perfect setting for leisurely strolls and basking in the sun, boasted expansive outdoor spaces resembling a charming beer garden. Now, let's talk food. It's decent, with schnitzels that hit the mark and a grüne sauce that adds a delightful touch. However, the service this time was like a rollercoaster of confusion. Mistakes rained down like confetti. No garden salad with the schnitzel, wrong orders arriving like unexpected guests. Attempts to remedy the situation felt like a jigsaw puzzle with mismatched pieces. Eventually, the correct salad made its grand entrance, but alas, I had already indulged in the "wrong" order. Overall, not the smoothest ride. In fairness, this hiccup in service isn't the norm. Perhaps the maestro of service is on a vacation escapade. Here's hoping for a swift return to the usual excellence!

Wir gehen gern hierher. Das Essen ist gut, die Servicekräfte sind sehr aufmerksam und freundlich. Das Ambiente ist stimmig. Schön im Sommer ist der große Außenbereich, besonders mit Kindern. Die zusätzliche Terrasse mit Blick auf den Park lädt zum Feierabend-Bier oder - Wein. Verlässliche Standard-Speisekarte mit ergänzenden jahreszeitlichen Angeboten. Jetzt Richtung Weihnachten empfehle ich unbedingt das Lebkucheneis zu probieren. Ich hätte dafür noch einen Extra-Stern gegeben, wenn es möglich gewesen wäre.

Das Essen ist lecker, gute Qualität und wechselnde, kreative Saison Karte. Gelungene Auswahl. Man kann draußen im Grünen sitzen, bei großer Hitze wäre es hilfreich mehr der vorhandenen Schirme aufzuspannen. Die Bedienungen sind immer sehr freundlich aber nicht immer sehr aufmerksam, manches mal bekommt man nach Anfrage einen Aschenbecher, wenn man nicht fragt dann gibt es auch keinen. Essen wird schnell serviert dafür öfter längere Wartezeiten wenn man zahlen möchte. Ich komme gerne wieder.

Kleine Karte. Essen lecker. Bedienung freundlich. Preislich okay. War insgesamt gut.

Gestern zum wiederholten Mal hier gewesen. Service wie immer sehr nett und machen einen sehr guten Job. Leider hatte der Koch keinen guten Tag. Die Linsentaler waren zu weich und der Teller lieblos angerichtet. Beim Jägerschnitzel zu wenig von der Sosse, an deren Geschmack auch gefeilt werden könnte. Kaiserschmarren wohl aus Fertigteig.

Great place to eat near the Messe, nice vibe and friendly service. The roast goose dish is well worth it and the beer on tap is perfect!
