Ratsschänke in Wetzlar

Delicious food, friendly service. The place has a pleasant atmosphere, with a large open area in the middle.

Very good food, delicious roulades, service friendly and nice, atmosphere great

Delicious food. Great service. A very cozy restaurant in the middle of the old town. Very close to the cathedral. Recommended.

After several visits, the level has leveled off at a high level. Really good food, good wines, prices have become a little more expensive but still do justice to the service. TIP: Bark shoe .... 👍🙂 ‐---‐------------- First visit after a long time, as the Ratschänke starts under new management. A successful start, steak very good, service 👍

It was our first visit today and there won't be another one. Let's start with the positive: very nice service, nice atmosphere, rustic furnishings. I had roulade, some of it was tough. Difficult to cut and chew. Expected more for €22, including the side dishes. Goulash with spaetzle was good. Dessert, apple 🍎 Cake with cream (spray cream) a few strawberries 🍓 All around for €8.50, don't be serious. Just put it in the microwave and you're done. Mine was warm, my husband's was cold. The hammer is the price for the café. Cappuccino (small cup) €3.90, alleged Café Creme (small cup) €3.50 The cappuccino was okay, the coffee was subpar. It was very cold in the restaurant. Would recommend taking a seat upstairs, it's definitely warmer.

A great experience every time you visit! Highly recommended!

Absolutely recommended, a great ambience, very tasty food and very friendly staff.

Very quaint and nice restaurant with excellent local food. Absolute recommendation

We hadn't made a reservation and spontaneously came to eat after a stroll through the old town. Nevertheless, we got a suitable place. Nice service, very tasty food and nice ambience.

Great place to taste good local food. Friendly and helpful staff. Absolutely recommend for everyone who appreciates German cuisine.

Delicious food, friendly service, rustic house & Hacker Pschorr. That's how it should be 🍺

Unfortunately it doesn't deliver what it promises in terms of price. Unfortunately we had to wait 1 hour for our food, despite asking. There wasn't that much going on at the time. The bruschetta was "okay", the potatoes were black and oily and the schnitzel itself was also dry. We therefore ordered sauce (green, already ready), which still wasn't there after another 30 minutes - and the schnitzel was cold. Service was friendly, but unfortunately the boss wasn't at all. We wouldn't go here again.

Went to the restaurant at lunchtime after a stroll through the city and had a nice spot outside with a view of the cathedral. The service: friendly, competent and attentive The food: delicious, rich and very good value for money. In short: great, tasty and recommended

Very rustic, freshly cooked, very tasty, friendly service - what more could you want?

Hubert bought everything in percent but it tastes good. Rustic atmosphere, very nice service

We were visiting Wetzlar and stopped here because of the "good" reviews. As a starter we had potato soup. We liked this quite well. As soon as the plate was empty, the main course was already on the table. Here we decided on Schnitzel Jäger style and an Alpine schnitzel. You can't go wrong with a Jägerschnitzel, but the Alpenschnitzel was a Viennese-style schnitzel with cranberries. There is still a lot of room for improvement here. The side salad had brown spots and was no longer completely fresh. The dressing was not homemade. The schnitzels are from the deep fryer and are all the same size. They appear to be frozen/formed schnitzels. Unfortunately we were disappointed with the food and cannot share the positive reviews. However, the atmosphere is very nice and the service is attentive. The portions are OK. When clearing the plates you could have asked if it was tasty. Maybe we don't know any better.

This was my second time there and I can only report positive things. The service was very nice. The Frankfurter Schnitzel tasted delicious on both visits. The meat was pounded thin, the breading was crispy and souffled. The green sauce tasted good and was a little different from the last visit - it is probably produced locally. We'd love to come back!

Good, middle-class food. Prices are fair. Service good.

I had expected a little more from the food in terms of taste, but still ok...

Excellent authentic German food, beautifully presented and superb quality one of the best if not the best meal we've had, very helpful and friendly staff.

Brilliant try the Argentinian rump steak Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Germany Brilliant my children got given a lollipop each

Sehr schöne Location, sehr gutes Essen. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, der Service ist sehr gut. Preis Leistung stimmt hier auch.

Everything as always, fine. Very nice location, with good food. Ll be back soon

Gute hessische Küche, zu empfehlen die hessischen Tapas und die traditionelle „grüne Soße „ in verschiedenen Varianten

Everything is great: Eat service Ambiance

Friendliness and flexibility are very important here. Thank you for the excellent service & the very good food. Greetings from the small family celebration

We always enjoy coming here. Very tasty food, nice service plus a nice ambience. Everything fits here!

It's rare that I give 5 stars, but here it should be. Friendly and attentive service even when the store is full. The food was consistently tasty and well portioned. Stay like that! Greetings from Berlin 🙋‍♂️👍

Everything great. We'd love to come back.

The food was very tasty, the service was good and very friendly, and of course the location at the cathedral is also good. The atmosphere is fantastic, I feel like I've been transported to another time. People here you can eat and drink well.

Das Essen hat gut geschmeckt. Auch die glutenfreie Pinsa war wirklich gut und die Portionen sind angemessen. Sehr aufmerksamer Service.

We have been walking through nature parks with a group for years. This year the 'Lahnwanderung'. Finally, we will visit a nice restaurant in the last place. In Wetzlar we happened to walk past the Ratsschänke and decided to make a reservation with 8 people. And that was a big positive surprise. The food was good, the atmosphere was good in this beautiful building. But most of all the service was great. The international group at the table helped us with energy, a big broad smile and great stories. We couldn't have had a better ending to our walk. So 5 stars.

Super great food, very good service. Always my pleasure!

Very nice service and rustic atmosphere right next to Wetzlar Cathedral. Solid German cuisine that hits the mark in terms of taste. There are no wishes left unfulfilled. Absolutely recommended! We will come back! 😊

Our starters “Hessen Tapas” and “Antipasto Italiano Misto” were enough for three people and tasted good, but too expensive. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend the “Schnitzel with Jägersoße” and “Alpenschnitzel” considering both the taste and the price. The portion size is rather below average. The selection of beer, in our case Hacker Pschorr, is good. The ambience is great. Even if we give a rather average rating here, we suspect that the owner is a very, very good host.

Friendly staff, good food, decent sized portions. Complimentary Limoncello. I tried Schnitzel with Mushroom sauce, it was good!

Very tasty food, I can only recommend it

It was a very cool evening, especially the waiter played his part, super funny guy, maybe again

Super stylish restaurant that 100% reflects the charm of the old town. Super nice service and an extremely delicious, satisfying meal. At the end there was a schnapps on the house, which unfortunately isn't often the case anymore. The selection of food and drinks was very good and not overwhelming. The food itself was well prepared and fresh. Finally a restaurant that simply deserves 5/5 stars. I would love to come back

Very nice restaurant with very tasty food and drinks and a very friendly atmosphere and very friendly service.

Food and drinks good. Service far too pushy. So we limited our consumption. The red wine was good so was the zwiebelrostbraten meat.

The food was very good. However there was a pressure by a waiter to let us order more than we needed. The atmosphere of restaurant was nice.

The Rathschänke in Wetzlar offers a charming atmosphere, excellent service and delicious food. The traditional furnishings and friendly staff make every visit a pleasure. Absolutely recommended for a successful evening!

I have to agree with Rainer Bote completely. My Goetheschnitzel now cost 22.50 euros. The breading was poorly seasoned and greasy. The fried potatoes didn't taste good either. I was still able to answer the service's question that I didn't like it and that the schnitzels came from the deep fryer. I was then told that I just wanted to “get something out of it”. I didn't find that very nice. You also have to be able to withstand criticism even if you ask questions. Up to this point the service has been friendly. The food was on the table very quickly...

Just had a quick drink here, so can't say anything about the restaurant. When you come from the beautiful cathedral square, the atmosphere continues through the great facade and into the interior - simply fantastic. Service was polite and courteous.

Cozy, appealing atmosphere, delicious food and drinks, refreshing and super-friendly service, simply great! Gluten-free and vegan dishes are possible, we always like to come back..

We had dinner here, were served quickly and friendly and really enjoyed the food. The Hessian tapas, consisting of green sauce, hand cheese and Mettwurst, are not for everyone, but were very tasty. The Wiener Schnitzel was excellent, as was the Pinsa Principessa. The Primitivo is also recommended. We'd love to come back.

Mega delicious food! Franco the owner is always polite and has an easy-going saying on his tongue. Happy to come back!!

One of the best locations in Central Hesse with a wonderful view of the historic core of Goethestadt, Wetzlar! The finest food, friendly, amusing service and a rustic atmosphere with a contemporary twist! Thanks to the owner with southern Calabrian (Italian) roots, the finest selection of wine!

Very tasty meatloaf! Nice location at the cathedral. The waitress always has a smile on her face.

We became aware of the restaurant completely by chance and were very happy to have found it. The staff was really nice and accommodating, the lady at the bar had a constant grin on her face that was contagious. In addition, the food was incredibly tasty and we would come here again at any time.

Whenever I'm in the area, I stop by specifically for this brilliant Pinsa. The innkeeper is always friendly and has an open ear. The service is attentive and literally reads your needs from your lips. Absolute recommendation.

The restaurant is very clocky, which I think is nice. Restaurant small and little space = OK Unfortunately it was very loud and you could hardly have a conversation Staff very friendly Pilsner was on the table within 2 minutes of ordering! I didn't like the food; I had the impression that it was ready-made food. Unfortunately the portion size wasn't too small for the price and I didn't get full. Dessert was very nicely decorated but I wasn't impressed with the taste either. Too bad.

This restaurant has absolutely nothing to do with German or German cuisine. Finished frozen schnitzels made from molded meat, which are then fried. Overall, the visit wasn't even worth 1 star. The Goethe Schnitzel for over 20 euros was not worth 5 euros. Nothing on the plate tasted good or was expertly prepared. The lowest quality delivered when it comes to food.

The Ratsschenke offered an ambivalent experience. The service was solid and the staff friendly, which left a positive impression. Unfortunately the kitchen couldn't quite keep up. The bruschetta as a starter served its purpose in terms of taste, but lacked a special note. The main course, consisting of schnitzel, was a disappointment. Despite the generous portion, the taste left a lot to be desired - it was almost tasteless, almost reminiscent of cardboard food. The fried potatoes accompanied the schnitzel, but instead of being fried until crispy, they seemed more boiled, which compromised their quality. After this unconvincing main meal, we hardly felt like dessert and decided to forego it. Overall, the Ratsschenke left an ambivalent overall impression due to the average to disappointing culinary experience.

Short visit to Wetzlar...after a recommendation I had a very tasty meal at the Ratsschänke...friendly service, small but also fine menu...recommendation is the green sauce...price/performance ratio is reasonable...you can go to a restaurant Recommend at any time 👍😁

We actually just wanted to have a quick drink and take a break from visiting the old town. However, we decided to order a portion of antipasti in the cozy atmosphere of the Ratsschänke. The portion was enough for two people (if you were a bit hungry), was varied and was served with warm bread mix. Unfortunately we didn't take a picture of the antipasti because we grabbed it so quickly. :-) It was very delicious. Next time we'll choose at the Ratsschänke: a full menu. ;-) The waiter was extremely courteous and friendly. Gladly again.

A beautiful restaurant with a great atmosphere. The Pinsa rustic was very good, the Jägerschnitzel was delicious. The service was attentive and very friendly. Price performance is right. There was a nightcap on the house, a fine gesture that has become rare in the catering industry! It was a successful evening! Thank you very much, we would love to come back 😊

The food tasted very good (Pinsa-Rustica). Extremely attentive and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Es war fantastisch. Tolle Gastgeber und sehr leckeres Essen. Sehr gerne wieder.

Super Atmosphäre, sehr nette Bedienung und leckere Gerichte. Wir kommen wieder!

Schön eingerichtetes Restaurant mit leckerem Essen.

Hier gibts nichts zu meckern! Zufällig hier gelandet. Sehr gemütlich, sehr lecker, Personal sehr nett und aufmerksam. Das Essen super lecker. Gute Qualität, Pommes super lecker, in frischen Fett frittiert. Extrawünsche wurde erfüllt.

Sehr gemütlich. Essen ist super

Tolles, freundliches Personal. Leckeres Essen. Bis zum nächsten Mal.

Das war soooo lecker hier. Alles frisch, Preis und Leistung absolut klasse. Auch die außerordentliche Freundlichkeit ist bemerkenswert. Wie alles hier! Vielen Dank für das Gesamtpaket. Ich werde Euch auf alle Fälle weiterempfehlen!

Wir hatten ungeplant einen sehr schönen Abend hier. Essen und Service super. Danke Frida und Hermann

Hier kann man es sich schmecken und gut gehen lassen.

Durch einen Zufall sind wir kurz vor Weihnachten in Wetzlar gelandet…Und als wir dann Abends über den Weihnachtsmarkt schlenderten ist uns die Ratsschänke ins Auge gestochen… Also sind wir halt mal rein…. Und wir sind sowas von begeistert! Die Wirtsleute und das Personal sowas von herzlich und freundlich! Man fühlt sich gleich wohl und willkommen. Das Essen sehr sehr gut! Die Pinsa mit Gorgolzola und Walnüssen…eine klare Empfehlung! Kurzum ein gelungenes Abendessen! Absolute Empfehlung ⭐️!

Tolles Ambiente. Die Gänsekeule war eher unter Durchschnitt.

Coole Location, freundlicher Service und prima Essen. Die regionalen Spezialitäten sind sehr zu empfehlen.

Die Pinsa ist wirklich sehr lecker!

Qualitativ hochwertiges Essen! Absolut empfehlenswert!

Wirklich sehr nett Super freundliches Personal Ganz tolles Essen Unbedingt mal hin Wir waren begeistert

Das Essen war wirklich super, Personal sehr freundlich aber leider so überhaupt nichts Kinderfreundliches auf der Karte. Dennoch reicht der Rest für 5 Sterne.

Schönes Ambiente. Romantisch Rustikal.

Wir hatten das Jäger- und das Frankfurter Schnitzel. Beide Gerichte waren absolut i.O. Hat uns gut geschmeckt. Das Ambiente und das die Getränke waren auch top! Was wir nicht i.O. fanden war, dass die Preise auf der Website nicht den Preisen vor Ort entsprachen. Alle Gerichte und Getränke waren schätzungsweise 5-10% teurer.

Leckeres Essen und sehr freundliche Bedienung.

Toller Abend, Super Service, sehr leckeres Essen

Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist für mich grenzwertig. Die Beilagen für die Rinderroulade hätten großzügiger sein können beim Preis von 20,90 Euro. Geschmacklich einwandfrei.

Beeindruckend schönes Lokal mit super Essen und super Service. Cooler Chef 👍

Ein Muss für jeden Besucher! Chet ist ein Unikat, allein dafür lohnt sich ein Besuch

Lecker Essen, super Service, gerne wieder!

Guter Mix aus italienischer und deutscher Küche.

Essen war gut. Ambiente rustikal, richtig schön inder Nähe vom domplatz. Für behinderte Menschen lieber unten reservieren denn nur oben befinden sich die Toiletten.

Ein tolles Restaurant in einem Fachwerkhaus. Das Essen war lecker. Ich hatte Hackbraten, der leider innen kalt war. Mein Mann hatte das Alpenschnitzel, welches gut war. Das Personal wirkte etwas unstukuriert, aber immer sehr bemüht es jedem Recht zu machen. Wir würden auf alle Fälle wieder kommen.

Super Qualität, die Pensa ist extrem lecker 😋

Sehr angenehme Atmosphäre und super leckeres Essen. Der Service war klasse und enorm hilfreich als wir unsere Kreditkarte im Restaurant haben liegen lassen. Haben sie uns bis zum Hotel gebracht. Vielen herzlichen Dank! 👏

Wir haben sehr lecker gegessen, und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt
