R-Café Arnsberg in Arnsberg

We were insulted by the chef and thrown out. However, we were allowed to take the Long Island iced tea to go, hence 2 stars.

Very nice coffee/restaurant, big and beautiful

We went there spontaneously and the service welcomed us nicely. The food was good. We'll be back.

It was significantly better years ago and is always decreasing. The food is still great but unfortunately the service has deteriorated significantly.

The R-cafe was great, we were there in the morning for the all you can eat buffet, everything was tip top and the price/performance ratio was really great

It's always a wonderful experience at R cafe. A very nice view.

The ambience and the food are great! Unfortunately, the homemade ice teas taste a bit weak.. The staff is not bad, unfortunately you can tell that they are often under stress and annoyed.

We went to R Café on a Sunday. It was very busy and yet the staff was friendly. It all took a while, but we had time and people can't work like that.

Overpriced like crazy! And the service is unfortunately very slow... Ordered a cappuccino for just under €4 yesterday and unfortunately only had warmed milk and milk foam

We have been here many times, not for a while and very disappointed yesterday. The service was totally unfriendly, the table was totally dirty and wasn't cleaned. We waited 35 minutes for the food and then a bowl arrived with half of the ingredients missing. After another 7 minutes, the missing things were packed on top, the prawns were ice cold and there were tons of sour cream. It tasted totally bland, there was nothing tasty but tons of tomatoes and cucumbers. We are quite satisfied and have also heard from many other guests that the quality and service have completely deteriorated. It's a real shame, we'll avoid the place for now.

We were there on Wednesday evening. We ordered pumpkin soup as a starter and then a burger, everything was delivered together. I could have puked.... The waitress just said that you had to say in advance that the soup would be brought first. Don't they have any sense to see it for themselves? Without words

Well, service likes to chatter away while other guests want to pay. Still friendly service, but just don't like this behavior - purely from a professional point of view

Food is great. Furnishings modern. It can be quite loud at times and service usually takes a little longer. However, very friendly.

I always enjoy going to the R Café.

Very nice. Unfortunately, the animals are all overfed when the weather is good.

A wonderful experience, highly recommended and has a great choice of various snacks

The restaurant is wonderful and the meat and chicken steak are very tender and juicy. I recommend trying it

Went there for breakfast today. It was very cold inside. Guests sat there at breakfast wearing jackets. Even the waitress had a sweatshirt jacket on. Thanks, I came home cold.

Very cozy bistro right on the water. There's brunch on the weekend. There are a lot of service staff, but they are all temporary workers with no motivation and apparently not involved in sales. There could be more.

Food was very tasty but ALL employees are DISASTER and don't take their work seriously... Boss, do something. 5€ tip and not even a thank you. The receipt was thrown on the table and we were shown the back.

It used to be great here, but unfortunately it's no longer worth a visit. The manager walks through the store in his stained sweatpants and I don't know anyone who has ever had a nice conversation with him. Always cheeky, know-it-all, almost insulting. Once I went there and when he came towards me I said "Hello, we have reservations" - a standard sentence that I always say, to which the waiter always says in a friendly manner "Yes, the name please" With the managing director the whole thing looks like this: he furrows his eyebrows, you shrug your shoulders and say “Yes, should I ask you about the names now?” Am I a psychic or what?” I have many more examples of this happening with other people - the guy is really obnoxious

Disappointing experience Service and food underground We had a reservation for 7 p.m., but still had to wait 20 minutes before anyone even looked after us. The staff seemed completely overwhelmed by the rush, although the full store was certainly no surprise. Our spot at the bar wasn't a problem at first, but the bar staff behaved more like they were in a schoolyard than a professional restaurant. Orders were forgotten or only asked after 30 minutes. The drinks came quickly, but that was the only positive thing about the evening. We only ordered a burger and fries and had to wait over an hour for it. In the meantime, our waitress came by and asked if we had our food yet. When we said no, we only received a confused look but no explanation, no apology, nothing. Instead of taking care of the guests, many waiters were more busy chatting with well-known guests and exchanging ideas about trivial topics. The only person who seemed remotely competent was the presumed waiter management; the rest seemed more interested in adolescent jokes than good service. Usually the food here can make up for a lot, but not this time. The burger was cold and it seemed like our food had been sitting in the kitchen for ages. Not a word of apology, no insight, nothing. We actually planned to order dessert, but after the endless waiting times we decided not to. In addition, the music was absolutely unreasonable, way too loud and constantly turned up or down at random, apparently because the bar staff thought it was funny. This not only disrupted the ambience, but was just plain annoying. I don't understand why this place gets so much praise probably because it's the only one in the area with this kind of atmosphere late at night. But a good ambience alone is not enough if the service is catastrophic and the food is unreasonable. We have given the restaurant many chances, but if nothing changes here, this will definitely be our last visit.

Horrible! Absolutely unsuitable for breakfast. You simply let so many people in that, due to the queue at the buffet, you only make it to the buffet MAXIMUM twice and are more full than want to queue again. The cocoa like water. When asked about the improvement, the same one came again with even more water in the taste than the first. When we were paying, we asked kindly to please cancel the cocoa, and we were told that wasn't possible - we had drunk both of them... absolutely subterranean. Every café would have done that or at least made sure that the second one was good if the first one was criticized! When paying then asked for the receipt. Well, what did you get, the daily turnover of the café on a Saturday, nice to know the numbers... that's what tops it all off! Service absolutely inattentive. When you were at the buffet, half of it was missing. Or you waited forever to ask for drinks etc. You had to go up to the waitresses to pay. 1 star is still too much! The object is quite nice, but unfortunately with incorrect content. The R Café was different

Unfortunately, I was dissatisfied with the orders in the R-Café several times. Telephone orders are often incomplete and cause problems. Once there was a piece of turkey breast on my vegan bowl, which was cheekily charged for - that's simply not acceptable. Last year I ordered vegan schnitzel locally, but was given meat schnitzel. Two weeks ago I wanted to try it again, but instead of the vegan burger I received the vegetarian burger, even though I had specifically ordered it vegan. My friend had the vegan schnitzels, but they weren't convincing because they were convenience products (from Rügenwalder Mühle?), which is not okay for the price. Really, you could easily do this yourself in countless ways! Even though the staff is mostly friendly, you often don't feel like you're being taken seriously when ordering vegan options. I would also like to see more vegan dishes on the menu. The ordering service could definitely be improved.

In the past this place was very attractive and had a pleasant atmosphere. Unfortunately, the situation has now deteriorated significantly. The prices charged for the dishes on offer are outrageous compared to the quality. All of the dishes seem to consist of pre-cooked frozen products that are hardly convincing in terms of taste. In addition, the sanitary facilities are in a questionable condition; the smell is unpleasant and reminds of poor hygiene. The entire store appears dirty and the staff seems unmotivated and rude, which further mars the entire experience. A particularly critical point is hygiene when handling food. The employee at the counter touches the ice cream with her bare hands, which is extremely unhygienic. In addition, many glasses are dirty and sometimes there are even remains of sugar packaging stuck in the cups. These conditions are unacceptable and require urgent improvements. Conclusion: I will no longer set foot in this store in the future.

We were there for the breakfast buffet. Even without reserving in advance, we spontaneously got a place (on Sunday morning). We were served very quickly. However, you have to take some time at the buffet because it was really crowded and the queue was very long. The selection at the buffet is varied and everyone will find something there.

I stopped there today on my tour along the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path to replenish my energy reserves and find a place to spend the night in peace. The staff was very friendly even if you came in wearing sports clothes. The food was also delicious 😋. Found it very comfortable there.

Always delicious, in the last few years I've mostly eaten burgers but I really have to say I still prefer the currywurst.

First time visiting the restaurant and definitely the last time. Tables dirty, leftover food on the floor, the food ordered underground. Frozen schnitzel from the deep fryer, hard and dry. French fries soft and unappetizing 🤢 Unfortunately the waiter, who tried to be friendly, could no longer save the overall desolate impression. Conclusion: At best the level of a below-average rest stop.

Unfortunately not so nice anymore, drinks were forgotten, dishes took forever, fries were unfortunately already cold.

According to Google, open until midnight at the door at the top end. At 10 p.m. there wasn't even one drink left

We had a delicious breakfast, but it was also perfect for dinner or a drink.

It's been a long time since I've been there since the change in tenants took place and the shop has declined dramatically. There's always something wrong with the orders, it doesn't come, it's wrong, it's old salad or there are things in it that have no business being there. Some of the drinks taste stale and have become far too expensive. I can understand everyone who likes being there, maybe these mistakes only happen to me. I don't know it! The ambience is really great, just way too loud. The waitresses are either friendly or really unfriendly/cheeky. If you want to order, pay or comment on something. It takes forever because the ladies are so stressed. In short, the store won't see me anymore. It's really a shame what happened to the store.

Typical R Cafe. You can't go wrong there. Good food, friendly service, reasonable prices. It's always just a little crowded.

Facilities and ambience good, service weaknesses, no orders at all or twice, waiting time perhaps a bit too long. Went there again today. “Very dry air” in the store. Service is friendly but slow, there is still room for improvement I was there again yesterday with colleagues. Unfortunately I can't change my mind, I would have to deduct a star, non-carbonated drink, unfortunately dirty cutlery (well, that can happen). The waitress was at the table a total of four times during the two-hour stay. To take the order, when she brought the drinks, when she cleared the dishes from the food and then to collect the cash. Not even the beginning of a question as to whether we would like anything else, not even when she cleared the dishes. Attentive service is different.

Always good. My last visit was on a Thursday afternoon, not much going on, waitresses attentive, coffee good, breakfast on the weekend is also great, clear recommendation!

Just way too expensive, what can I say, 2 small drinks, 1 small soup & 1 small snack menu (2 pizza rolls with 4 chicken breast strips) and over €20 is disrespectful

In the beginning, I enjoyed coming to the R-Cafe relatively often. Unfortunately, the service has deteriorated significantly in the past and is no longer commensurate with the prices quoted. Sometimes you wait a long time for the waiter to order a new drink. In addition, on some days or at peak times the noise level is unbearably high, so a cozy atmosphere is out of the question. It's a shame, things used to be better somehow...

Food is okay, but after I forgot my bag under the table and we called, they just said that the bag hadn't been handed in without even checking to see if it was still there. When we called the second time to say we were coming back, you could only hear them saying "Digga, this is the second time they've called about the stupid bag" and they just hung up without speaking to us. Conclusion: we looked under the table and the bag was still there. I have never seen a store with such unfriendly staff.

Great! Sometimes just a bit crowded but really worth it.

We were there for breakfast. Everyone had their own tongs for the buffet, which I thought was great. Unfortunately it was very tight at the buffet as the entrance was on the side. The buffet was plentiful.

Almost always super nice service.

Whether breakfast or lunch, everything is possible here. Very large location with a special area for smokers, which I and many of my fellow visitors don't like and would get rid of. Otherwise it's a good place to go, even if it's just for a coffee and cake.

Used to be a great cafe - used to go there regularly! But things haven't been so nice lately. During my last visit I noticed that some waiters preferred other guests who came later than us to order food and drinks and the preferred guests who already had food on the table and we didn't even order a drink after waiting for almost an hour could! If you overlook a table with guests, yes, it can happen, but apparently overlooking several tables on purpose? Strange... Oh well, some of the staff are extremely unfriendly (but there are also very friendly staff there 🙏)

Nice café or restaurant located directly on the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path. In summer and winter you can sit comfortably in the outside, covered area. You should reserve a table, especially if you want to eat there with several people. In the morning you can have breakfast, at lunch and in the evening there are heartier dishes such as burgers and fries etc. It's worth a visit..

It took more than an hour for the order to be taken and arrived. Otherwise delicious👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

We recently visited the restaurant “R” in Neheim for brunch and had mixed experiences, which I would like to share here. First of all, the positive: The staff and service were consistently friendly and attentive. The staff always looked after our well-being and were quick to help when we had questions or needed something. The selection at the buffet was also impressive. From fresh rolls to various types of cheese and a variety of spreads, there was something for every taste. Unfortunately, there were also some negative aspects that marred our visit. The first thing we noticed was that the lamp at eye level was full of dust and was annoying every time we looked up. In addition, the table we were sitting at wasn't really clean and we found some crumbs that had obviously been there for a long time. The most important drawback, however, was the arrangement at the buffet: the jam was placed awkwardly under the Nutella jar, which meant that the jam overflowed when refilling and caused an unpleasant mess in the jam jar. Overall, brunch at “R” was a mixed experience. While the service and selection were convincing, the cleanliness and arrangement at the buffet urgently needed to be improved. I hope that these points will be taken into account in the future, because with a few adjustments the restaurant could become a real insider tip.

Very good Cheeseburger with two patties is a lot and hardly possible.

Very nicely decorated for Christmas!! Very cozy Food very tasty Great atmosphere I look forward to the next visit

The ambience can't be beat, especially now during the Christmas season!

Had a drink here on our bike tour, the service and ambience were perfect.

Dear R Café. You guys are great when it comes to food. In terms of personnel, you are mediocre to well positioned. Some good permanent staff but also a lot of uncertain new faces. Unfortunately, your play area is very poor 🥺 you don't like letting your children play there alone. Toys greasy and dirty, leftover food from other children lying on toys or floor. You really have to work on it...check several times a day and wash things off and keep the floors clean. If this is fixed, as a mother of three, I would be really grateful.

Nice and inviting atmosphere for young and old. Reservations are highly recommended, especially for weekends. That actually says it all....👍👍👍

Food good and cheap but noisy when it's full

It's a very nice atmosphere, very good food and the staff are very friendly and polite, good service, nice place to stay.

A prime example of a staff shortage.

The breakfast is really great in terms of quality and value for money

Schnitzel not prompted, regardless, it was a breathtaking experience and super tasty. (Probably the best schnitzel of my life). The atmosphere is just great and you feel very comfortable.

Super cozy here. Prices are acceptable and the service is super friendly! I really enjoy being here. 😉

Nice location for dinner or just for a cafe. Directly on the Ruhr. With self-service bicycle service station

where is my swimming pool? My name is Daniel Mackencock

So we like to eat here as such. It tastes quite good. It feels a bit more expensive, but the quality is consistent. The waitresses often seem to be overwhelmed and therefore get annoyed from time to time. Nevertheless, we like to go there and yes, it's complaining on a high level.

Very, very nicely done. Super tasty food and very nice service. I can only recommend it

Very stylish, very nice, very tasty... we'll always come back.

Simply mega. A great atmosphere right on the Ruhr. If you don't get enough here, it's your own fault.

Very nice, cozy atmosphere. Really makes you feel good. The service took quite a long time, even though there wasn't that much going on. Unfortunately, the empty glasses all remained there until the end and we had to get a waitress to pay because there was no response to hand signals. The drinks were very tasty, the soup I had was unfortunately only lukewarm and very little for 7€.. still beautifully prepared and it tasted very good. All in all I would go again.

Went there for brunch on Sunday. But allowing so many people into such a small brunch buffet is simply not possible! Sometimes you had to wait 15 minutes to get rolls and cold cuts and I don't see that if you want to have a relaxed breakfast! Then I did NOT eat breakfast. So extremely overcrowded! The service was friendly and the coffee with milk was tasty, that was the only highlight.

There is nothing to complain or criticize 👍🙂

The food was partly very tasty (burgers, fries, bowls) and partly "just OK" (crumble didn't taste good and Kaiserschmarrn wasn't as fluffy as homemade). So nothing outstanding but not a catastrophe. I've been there several times and have to say that the service really depends on who you get there. On the last visit it was very good, a nice young waiter who took the order in a friendly and quick manner. Even though it was busy, the orders were processed correctly and quite quickly. And that even though we were sitting in the farthest corner and the waiters kept getting stopped on their way to us. However, we have had other days where someone came to take the order after almost an hour and then seemed annoyed. The order then took ages and we weren't allowed to eat outside at the play ship (despite the good weather). Yes, it can happen that you are understaffed and that you are annoyed by it. And it is understandable that one or two areas are therefore closed. But overall I thought the service was bad that day. Therefore, I cannot give 5 stars, which the service on October 19, 2024 would have definitely deserved. The ambience varies from corner to corner, with comfortable armchairs and a large television in the front. Then the counter with bar stools, further in the middle the tables which are more functional. Then the family area with larger tables and a children's play area (where it often gets loud). And then outside/semi-outside with a view of the water, cozy benches with furs on them and heaters and fire bowls (in glass so there is no danger). There is also a great play area at the back with a climbing ship and swings.

I've been trying to give the R-Café a chance for years. After my last visit yesterday I will definitely not be coming back. We wanted to go to the R-Café for a cold drink and some chips and were once again disappointed. We waited 45 minutes for the drinks and an hour for the fries. It doesn't work at all. The fries were only kept warm by the bowl in which they were served. The café wasn't full/crowded for a Friday lunchtime and there seemed to be enough staff there, because we always saw changing faces whenever a service person was on the move. Nobody knows why it still doesn't work. Our neighboring tables also complained about long waiting times and that they were not served/were turned away by the service staff. It's a shame, because the ambience is actually great and the food and drinks are great too.

I would like to share my experience in this company. Unfortunately, the working environment is strongly influenced by the constant stressful situation, which is mainly caused by the presence of the boss. Every time he's in the office, you immediately notice that the atmosphere is tense. This has a negative impact on team dynamics and overall motivation. Another point that often causes confusion is the boss's appearance. It would be desirable if he dressed more professionally as it would not only give a better image of the company but could also motivate the team. Overall, I find the working conditions challenging and I am unsure whether I would recommend this company to others. It would be helpful if communication and leadership style were worked on to create a more pleasant work environment.

Chic bistro/bar/restaurant. Located just outside the town, directly on the Ruhr cycle path, with a large parking lot. There is food for all tastes in good gastro quality, prices are reasonable. The shop is busy in the evenings, but is also suitable for an afternoon café.

Beautiful breakfast every time.

We went there on a weekend for breakfast before going shopping. First of all: the buffet was great! There's nothing to complain about - except that an analogue Nutella jar is certainly the better solution for serving so many people. From the menu selection you get everything you expect and are used to at a brunch like this. Keyword "lots of people": If you like to have breakfast in a train station... here you go! When every table is occupied, there is a level of noise that no longer has much ambience. You stand in a long line... sometimes next to tables where people want to have breakfast and chat. Not nice. Accordingly, the service team was running at full speed. And seemed more rushed than inviting. It's not the store's fault that so many people come - you might think - but that's how it is! After all, it is designed to be so large, is filled with many tables and every table is occupied... Speaking of the table: there were 3 of us sitting at a very, very small table - yes, the plates and cups we needed fit on it, but it wasn't nice. To get the space you need, you first have to put away all the card stuff. Eating with your elbows on your body, you listen to the noise of the station hall, the conversation at the table next door or even speak very loudly yourself. Dumb. Maybe we would try again during the week...? 🤔

Super nice location... perfectly located for going for a walk. But above all....super great shop....nice and courteous staff.... delicious food with a large selection and great breakfast. Dogs are also allowed in. Highly recommended.... like to go there 👍

Hey guys, I was in the café today with my wife from Berlin and a friend from Neheim. I was very surprised by the atmosphere. The service is great and very friendly and attentive. The food was great and tasted good. Easy to reach and plenty of parking spaces. It was a nice experience and we were very excited. Thanks for the service. I wish everyone a nice stay and stay healthy.

Great class there. Totally nice service there! Since I couldn't buy cigarettes, the super nice waitress helped me out with her cigarettes!! The crust was super good too!

Cozy-chic atmosphere. Extensive menu and delicious food. The dishes arrive hot and are freshly prepared. The service is very friendly and attentive. There is a large parking area, but it is still quite difficult to get a parking space on the weekends. There are parking spaces for guests with children and strollers.

The play area was unsightly and dirty. I don't think it's ok if something like that is offered and the children are immediately dirty. The staff was also very unfriendly, we don't know that from r cafes...

Disastrous service! The fully tattooed black-haired lady behaved incredibly dominant, unsympathetic and acted as if she owned the shop! Waited forever for drinks, food and payment. The food was of the typical Extrablatt standard. Nothing special. We liked the location and music the most. Nevertheless: never again!

Coffee and sandwiches overpriced.

I didn't really like it this time, unfortunately the table was full of crumbs and the service could have been friendlier. There was a lot of smoking at all the tables... Maybe next time we'll stay inside despite the nice weather because there's no smoking.

The service was very nice and the food also tasted good. You didn't have to wait long for the drinks, but I won't be ordering cocktails or a mojito there anymore: ordered a mojito, got a caipirinha, complained, got the same caipirinha with a mint leaf, complained again, got a caipirinha. So either the bartender didn't know the difference or they just didn't want to mix a new cocktail.

Waited over 45 minutes for drinks until we had to get up ourselves and draw our attention. Food came after 1.30 hours. The staff was totally annoyed and extremely unfriendly...

Always suitable for a break. Food and service is very good. I'd love to come back.👍👍👍🤤

Most of the staff is just plain unfriendly. Right at the beginning you wait in vain for a condition so that you can order something to drink and then when you immediately want to order something to eat so that you don't have to wait so long again, you are told in a condescending tone "Everything one by one" and You wait in vain again for service and the drinks you have long ordered. After you finally order the food, you have to ask about the food several times, which is probably noticeable on a relatively uncrowded Saturday evening. Unfortunately the RCafe has gone down a lot...Sad.

The ambience is simply great and the service was nice. Unfortunately, the food wasn't that convincing.

I didn't eat anything there Had a very tasty burger today.

It's nice here, but the range of vegan dishes is minimal. The vegan burger was hard because it was fried for too long and is it really asking too much to offer vegan mayonnaise with the fries? It's a shame, so no further visit is interesting for me.

Had a delicious breakfast with family. Friendly staff

A lot went really wrong. Some of the drinks were prepared incorrectly. The wrong food was brought. The correction was supposed to take 2 minutes, but it ended up taking 15 minutes. When it came to the bill at the end, the (more expensive) incorrectly prepared dishes were on the bill instead of what was actually ordered. The correction took forever. In general the store was so overwhelmed that nothing was really pleasant and you had to wait forever.

Sometimes very good and sometimes not so good service. Unfortunately loud. There is a lack of soundproofing. Otherwise cozy atmosphere. Food good to very good

Very bad, smokers and non-smokers and children play corner together. Not again

The service was a disaster. Not only were the wrong drinks and food brought several times, there wasn't even an apology. The wait times were terribly long and the food didn't come together. I also don't think it's okay to smoke in the area around the playground. This is not up to date. When broken pieces were pointed out, during our time there (excessively long due to extremely long waiting times), no one cleaned them up (as a reminder: there were small children running around everywhere). The food itself was good. There's nothing you can say.

If you're coming here, definitely don't come hungry. Eat as much as you can at home, then place your order. You'll be hungry again by the time your food arrives anyway.

Were there for the first time, everything was great, the food was very good. The staff was very competent, friendly and helpful, would be happy to come back

We have been to the R Cafe from time to time over the years. The location on the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path is good, the food is delicious. Unfortunately, on recent visits, the staff seemed disinterested after you had eaten your food. Unfortunately, if the place is busy, you won't be able to understand what you're saying in the main part.

Good and fast service, great food. I can only recommend it!

Super nice cafe and restaurant. Very nice service who loves her job! The food was very good and cheap. You can also go there by bike! It is definitely worth a visit for everyone. Questions will be gladly answered. There is a play area. The restaurant was very busy. Plenty of parking spaces in front of the house. Corporate events welcome!

Disaster! Unfortunately, the waitress couldn't even tell me the time of day with a smile, let alone tell me the brand of non-alcoholic beer when I asked. Also had to point out that the previous guests had to take the used dishes with them... Really stupid
