Puszta-Hütte in Köln

A very cozy and traditional looking restaurant! They pretty much only serve goulash and beer but boy are those delicious and they go incredibly well together! Also one of the cheapest eats you can get

Unfortunately, that's no longer what it was. The taste has deteriorated a lot. Service is still super nice employees. But unfortunately you can hardly enjoy the food when you are outside. There are always junkies walking around who appear very unkempt. Who smell from meters away and want to beg for money every time at the table. You can hardly enjoy the food. I had to leave mine alone.

Hearty and warm goulash, cripsy bread, awesome price. Would come back for sure. You can even get extra soup if you want. Super recommended 👍🏻👍🏻

Goulash pleasantly spicy. With a second helping! Served quickly. I can only recommend ❤️

So pustahütte is a household name for every Cologne resident... I went there with my father 45 years ago as a child and the goulash was always great. In Kölle the Köbes is king... But the woman who served us really did a lot of work when it came to dogs... Okay, she's afraid of dogs but then you don't need to make such a fuss. We asked where to sit, they could have seated us somewhere other than in the middle of the restaurant, only to cause a huge fuss every time we walked past because the dog was sitting there. She could have sent her colleague or placed us in the back corner. I mean, this isn't a stand-up comedian show. Every time she came past our table she did some nonsense about the dog. "Oh, I was so scared" or "Oh, I'm so scared" This has to get better... You can't scare away the guests just because you're annoying everyone with your fake dog panic... Ridiculous! We didn't take a second helping or a second or third Kölsch and just left

Cologne institution. Every Cologne resident has probably been a guest here at least once in their life.

Very cozy and warm atmosphere! The waiters are friendly and attentive. I am very satisfied and would like to come back✨🥹

If you like goulash you have to eat here. TOP.

I love this goulash. I can recommend it without hesitation.

Cult place on Neumarkt. The best goulash in the Republic. However, it is very unfortunate that card payment is not possible. Tax evasion is uncool.

As always, a culinary experience.

Amazing goulash. Angle !!! your heart is warming

Very good goulash and clear recommendation

Very tasty food but the staff there are not good at all, they are so unsympathetic that I won't set foot there again.

Simply cult. Always worth a visit. The best goulash ever.

We wanted to try and see if it was really as good as the reviews said. We were definitely not disappointed and will come back on our next trip to Cologne. It's just so delicious and cheap.

Top goulash soup! Drove an extra 350km - it was worth it!

The goulash soup is excellent Bought a supply of cans straight away If I'm in Cologne again, I'll definitely come back

This is simply cult. This is my goulash and my place. It's great that it exists and has existed for so long

What's so great about that? Thin soup with countable meat crumbs. Second helping without meat crumbs. As natives of Cologne, we ask ourselves who gives positive reviews. Unbelievable. The first picture is Puszta Hut, the second is the local gourmet restaurant. Both for €6.90. I honestly wonder if the celebrities who express their positive comments on autograph cards (which are everywhere) were all funny...

Great Goulasch, very delicious. Served (presentation) in a very simple way (it is not the best I have seen, but the flavor was great and that is what matters. In fact, I repeated, because it was not a large quantity. It is the only dish in the restaurant (family tavern type). They serve you immediately. There is no waiting and it is very close to Schindler Gasse, one of the streets with the highest concentration of shops. Very central and economical.

Fantastic restaurant with a unique atmosphere and all this considering that there is only one dish on the menu. Absolutely recommended!

Simply far too expensive 12 euros for a large can, little meat and super spicy 🌶️ too spicy and no longer edible. I used to think it was better

We have been purchasing Puszta Hut products online for many years. This is how we bring a piece of home to Bavaria. It's great that this still exists after so many decades.

Always a pleasure. A delicious Kölsch and a great goulash

Rustic atmosphere and only one dish on the menu, but this one has it all. The goulash tastes great and doesn't cost the earth. There aren't many seats here but it's definitely worth a visit if you've never been here before. We also had super friendly and funny service, would happily do so again

This is what a restaurant should look like. There is only one dish of goulash to eat, nothing else. And it's been since 1948, so it can't be that bad. Nice and tender and spicy The price includes a free helping of sauce.

Super Gulasch, gutes Brötchen und kühles Kölsch - mehr braucht es nicht! Seit Jahren regelmäßig dort und so wird es auch in Zukunft sein.

my soul is filled with goulash.

I'm probably one of the first guests... around 50 years ago. Today we again had first-class goulash, delicious Kölsch and great service, thank you very much.

Always delicious, you only meet the marauders from Neumarkt when you sit outside

!! Fantastic!! Every time I'm in Cologne, the goulash soup with a fresh Kölsch is an absolute must for me - a real highlight! If it were possible, I would even give it 6 stars. A little note for everyone who can't tolerate any spiciness at all: the goulash might be a little too spicy for you. However, if you enjoy Tabasco without any problems, you won't have any problems here. (Subjective assessment)

A living room for everyone for generations. 1.1 forever

I read that they have delicious goulash. I ordered it, I didn't like it. They also cannot pay by card.

Rustic atmosphere in the guest room. Super friendly and attentive staff, happy to say a Cologne saying on their lips. In addition to goulash, there is Mühlen Kölsch on tap. And the rolls are now homemade. A visit is worth it.

Tradition in Cologne. Always my pleasure.

Discovered by chance while strolling through town. Very tasty goulash 👍🏻👍🏻.

Urkölsch. Mühlen Kölsch. Köbe's great. Goulash is always good. You have to try it and enjoy it.

You get what you expect - only better!!! There is a dish and it does what it promises. The service is great and so are the people in the store. Beer is delicious and cold - megaaa

Cult. Yummy. Cozy. For me a piece of Cologne - as a non-Cologne resident 😉

Christmas market small but nice. Very personable...

Friendly, quick and uncomplicated! Great price-performance ratio

Always great, real Cologne waiters, always eat perfectly spicy.

Heidewitzka! It's a great goulash and the second helping is included. Highly recommended. Bring cash!

This is not an original Hungarian gulyasleves

There's only goulash on the menu, which is super tasty, the portion isn't too big, but with a ladle of sauce and rolls it only costs €6.90. If you're more hungry you can just order several portions. Definitely worth it. In addition, the service is super fast and nice.

The principle of “small but good offer” taken to the highest level. Nowhere in Cologne can you eat goulash better than here. The shop is old and rustic, almost nostalgic. You can also buy the goulash in cans to take away for little money. The prison bowls are part of the charm

A very authentic Hungarian Goulash Pub and great to meet friends and have a couple of Kölsch beers. Goulash is the only food they serve, so do go there if you are looking for a big menu.

Always delicious. Albeit a bit spicy.

Die beste Gulaschsuppe in Köln und das seit Jahrzehnten

Nice delicious! I ordered Goulash and they offered refill Goulash (included in the menu) when we almost finished it and chatting.

Great store, deserves the attribute "cult". One point deducted for the fruit fly... 😊

Very good, pleasantly spicy goulash with buttery soft meat. Plus a very good, as it seems, homemade roll. Always worth a visit.

The taste is super delicious. I bought some goulash soup to take away and sat down in front of the shop with it (not a single customer was outside and all the seats were free). I then ate some of my soup there and was sent away by the waiter because it would spoil the picture. Unfortunately for me that's a reason not to eat there anymore.

I expected it to be a bit more "touristy", but it is as quaint as it is described. Food is good, service is good. Price/performance is great. What more can you say?

There are only 2 dishes available here. Goulash with or without beef. The beef was very tender and juicy. Soup was a bit spicy even without the chili oil but really tasty and yum. If I heard correctly, you can have an extra plate of soup without meat for free after ordering one set of Goulash. Prompt and friendly service Cash payment only

Quaint and simple. The goulash is very tasty and the service is great. You even get seconds (just sauce)

Price-performance ratio is completely okay; very nice service, quick service!

Very rustic, but if you're looking for that, this is the place for you.

I come from Duisburg on my bike for this soup

Perfect before every FC home game 🔥

¿Qué suerte tuvimos de encontrarnos con esta joya? Queríamos un almuerzo rápido pero lleno y esto fue perfecto. Me encanta la forma en que básicamente sirven una cosa... goulash y pan... ¡pero es lo MEJOR que me ha pasado por los labios! Necesito volar aquí para probarlo de nuevo. La carne suculenta y la salsa era simplemente divino y una patada encantadora a ella. ¡También puedes comer segundas porciones! El ambiente en el interior era muy acogedor y el personal excepcionalmente amable y muy elogioso acerca de mi horrible capacidad alemana y acento (creo que apreciaron que lo intente sin embargo!) . Se lava con un par de cervezas (otras bebidas disponibles! ). Definitivamente quiero volver. ¡Fue uno de los momentos más destacados de mi viaje! No se llevan tarjetas para el pago; solo efectivo, pero no hay problema, ya que había una señal clara afuera y teníamos efectivo disponible. ¡Gracias!

A visit to the classics in Cologne is essential

As always, goulash was delicious and spicy. There is still free advice. The junkies hanging around outside are not pleasant, but they are part of the neighborhood. The price of goulash is now at a record high.

If you want goulash, it's always great here...

Nice, quaint shop in the heart of Kölle. Service good, ambience matches the name. The goulash is ok. The portions are quite small. With a free second helping and a second roll, it's just right.

You can get the best goulash I know there. Nice old place. I'm a regular there. You can also get the goulash in cans. But I like it even better fresh in the restaurant. I'll go back soon.

The Puszta Hut Cologne is a real highlight in the city center near Neumarkt! The goulash here is simply legendary – absolutely the best in the whole city! The cuisine impresses with excellent quality, authentic flavors and a cozy, simple atmosphere that invites you to linger. The staff is always friendly and accommodating, making you feel immediately welcome. A must for every goulash lover and anyone who wants to enjoy a piece of Hungarian tradition. I'll definitely be back!

Actually, I'm the last person to eat goulash. But even I, who actually hate it, say it's really, really tasty and I would and will recommend it to my friends.

The Puszta Hut has been around forever. The goulash soup is legendary. 😊👍

You have to go. Great service, great soup and lots of warmth in the Köll style.

If you have been running a restaurant in the heart of Cologne for 76 years where you can only order ONE DISH, then that dish must taste sensational. And it does. The Puszta Hut goulash is known and infamous beyond the city limits. I sometimes dream about this goulash at night. Luckily, you can also take this liquid bliss home in canned form. Anyone who doesn't know the Puszta Hut has missed Kölle.

Super tasty, would love to come back.

I've been a huge fan since the first time! The goulash tastes outstanding and is on the table within five minutes of ordering. The staff is very friendly and works with heart. I can recommend it to everyone!

I drove 350 kilometers for this goulash. RIGHT NOW! And the people are all nice too! Definitely the best in Cologne.

When you come to Cologne, you have to go to the Pustahütte. There are only two things, a goulash soup and Kölsch, and that has been the case for 80 years. Even if you don't speak Kölsch, the waiter will still understand you. There is free advice and, if you wish, you can find out the interesting history of how this restaurant came about and why nothing has changed in 80 years and nothing will change. It's worth it, have fun and enjoy your meal.

Sensationally delicious goulash together with a Kölsch for under €10. But who drinks just one Kölsch... There are several seating areas inside and also a few tables outside. Service was very nice and the atmosphere was rustic. However, you can only pay in cash.

Here you can find the best goulash in Cologne, if not in the world! Hot and spicy, served quickly and hot by the cheerful, quick and funny team. For me, the epitome of Kölle for 40 years. Definitely try it! Very tasty again today with a fresh mill - Kölsch!

There is only goulash, and if you wish, it's not that spicy. And for a second helping, we recommend leaving a few pieces of meat on the plate.

Great as always. A must when visiting Cologne

Super hot goulash, super fast service

They do one thing and one thing only - and they do it incredibly well. The goulash is absolutely delicious, a generous portion with just the right amount of spice - and a free refill of soup is included. The staff is very friendly, the atmosphere is warm. An absolutely lovely place. They also sell the goulash canned too, if you'd like to make/reheat it yourself at home - or if you'd like to have it again after a Köln visit from another country.

The quality is no longer what it used to be... the meat is very fatty, which is absolutely not possible in the normal way

Long-established single-dish restaurant with free second helpings. The service is quick and the goulash is very tasty.

If you're visiting this place is a must!

Yea, they do one thing and one thing very well! I left wanting more for days.

Always worth a visit... but toilet...

Fast, delicious and with a good price!

I've been getting goulash for years - very tasty

Tasty food and amazing environment

Ich bin schon seit Jahren gerne in der pusterhütte jetzt war ich aber wieder einmal dort und habe mich gewundert der Gulasch schmeckt nicht wie früher die Bedienung war völlig neu und ansonsten immer die bekannten Gesichter und die Preise deutlich erhöht die brötchenqualität war auch nicht gut ich war so enttäuscht dass ich das mitteilen möchte

Simply amazing. Best goulash that I ever tried

Very spicy but super tasty!! And here you'll also find the fastest service in Cologne! If you don't like spicy, just order without oil. I'll be back 100%, also because the price is great for 2 people :) the waiter was really sooo friendly 👌🏻👌🏻 sure the ambience isn't the best in terms of the location, but otherwise it's a cute shop.

Still a favorite even after 60 years

For me, the Puszta Hut in Cologne is a place where I feel at home. The spicy goulash soup and the freshly tapped Kölsch are the perfect combination for me. The portions aren't huge, but you can always get seconds, which I find particularly customer-friendly. The cozy atmosphere and warm hospitality make every visit an experience. The rustic decor and friendly service make you feel really welcome here. It's nice to see that other visitors also praise the authentic Hungarian cuisine, the cozy atmosphere and the generous hospitality.

Great concept. Good soup, even better Kölsch... Environment is a bit weird...

In my opinion, goulash is very over-seasoned, but tastes okay. At least a hint of vegetable is missing. Rolls are unfortunately cheap self-service goods, but the price is a bit too high.

They only have goulash and bread. It's tasty and cheap. They offer one free refill of goulash sauce. Service was good.

Very nice restaurant, the goulash soup is great. You can also buy soup and spices there

They only serve goulash. Simple, rich and good service. 5/5
