Reinhardts im Gasthaus Alte Nikolaischule in Leipzig

Rustic atmosphere. Friendly reception and service. Food is home-style. The only drawback is the tight seating.

My recession is happening very quickly today 10/2/24 12:55 p.m.: The three of us arrived hungry. 3 rude comments from the middle-aged female waitress... We don't feel welcome here. That's why we better go back. And done! The general personnel problem in the catering industry is miraculously solved here, as no more guests come. Problem solved. We are now sitting in Café Stein and are being served very nicely. Addendum: I'm curious to see the boss's reaction.

Unfortunately, I chose completely the wrong type of sausage for the currywurst. Instead of a bratwurst, a boiled sausage probably treated with nitrite curing salt was used. And then fried in slices.

Nice café in a historic building at the Nikolaikirche. Very friendly staff and delicious cake (Leipziger Lerche)

The soul of Leipzig for me. Sour beer and Grützwurst - well made and unique. Super tasty and authentic - you can't find it anywhere else in the world

The Quarkkeulchen are just perfect and the reason why I always have to visit, when I'm in Leipzig.

The food is excellent, the service is sometimes inattentive We had to wave a lot until the waitress came to our table, even though she had passed it many times and always looked in different directions or didn't look around and her hands were empty.

A place where history was written. The food is simply wonderful. Highly recommended! 👍

Very good and cheap middle-class food next to the Nikolaikirche

Good food but fantastic service! Our waitress was super friendly and full of good tips!

Excellent food, regional dishes on the menu that are delicious. Terrace is nice and cozy. Staff are friendly.

Super delicious food, whether crispy duck, liver, jagtwurst or just sauerkraut. Gladly again!!!!

We wanted to have another beer at 9:12 p.m., mind you, when the store closed at 10:00 p.m. Rejected on the grounds that “it would soon be the end of the day” and used a tone that would make any beer driver blush. Endless service desert, very sad. Update: It is disrespectful to yell at a politely inquiring guest that you won't accept anyone anymore. Mind you, after we sat down at a free table (in silence). The sound makes the music. And the order deadline is 9:00 p.m. when the board says “Kitchen closes at 9:00 p.m. / Closed from 10:00 p.m.”? If pouring beer really takes that long, then it's best to put a second board next to it and explain your tedious process. Or simply reflect on yourself instead of looking for the “blame” on others.

Great seating, top service from Heike and her crew. Duck and pork knuckle were great. The strawberry punch too!!! The dog had a good time, Cairn owners among themselves 🙃 Will definitely come back

Very bad. Wanted a drink on Friday at 9:09 p.m. Were rejected. It's probably already too late. Should look somewhere else. In downtown Leipzig… at 9 p.m.!!! Apparently the increased prices during Corona times have meant that the restaurant industry is no longer dependent on customers.

Very unfriendly service. Wouldn't come again.

Just wanted to drink, poor service, drinks were brought wrong. It can happen but they were handed to you, like in a self-service restaurant. After a complaint, a discussion broke out between the trainee and the waitress. The other trainee made faces behind the waitress's back in the presence of the guest. Not a nice situation for us as guests. Will not visit this restaurant again and definitely not recommend it. Seating not comfortable, worn out. Can only get better here.

One of the best restaurants for Saxon food! Super nice service, great ambience and absolutely perfect food!

Moderately friendly service, average food. Outrageous pricing. A small mini bowl of starter salad costs €9.90!!! Alone, as a starter €6.50 What's the point? The same procedure is used for seasoned meat. When we asked, we were referred to the boss, who of course wasn't in the house. We had hoped for more and were accordingly disappointed. We won't be back...

The service was ok, the food too. Unfortunately, a little little for the hefty price.

We were there on 7/5/24. I was looking forward to the pollack fillet in a potato crust. When the food came I was angry. I got a breaded pollack fillet from the freezer. When I complained about this to an employee, she called a colleague. She wanted to tell me that the potatoes were chopped very small and that's what it looks like. I was there with 2 trained chefs who also told her that it wasn't potato crust. The lady then said stroppily, "If that's what you think then that's it, that's how we do it anyway." Everyone can form their own picture of it. See photo. I think it's rip-off and annoying. It was only given 3 stars because there were 3 other people there who were more satisfied with their food and I want to take that into account. I'll upload an example picture of what it would look like with potato crust. Left picture of what I was served, right picture of what it should look like.

Very nice staff, great service and very tasty food. Completely happy

Very good food and friendly staff.

Essen war geschmacklich gut, das Gulasch mit gerade mal 3 Stückchen Fleisch wurde man nicht satt und zu teuer. Toiletten steht Schild 1 Euro, allerdings Bedienung an der Theke ansprechen gibt Marken an Gäste für den Automaten.

Unfortunately a very negative first impression of Leipzig. We just wanted something quick to eat and the two of us sat down at a large table for 10 (because of the shade). We were quickly driven away with the message that all 8 (!) large tables were reserved for groups that could (possibly) still come .When I objected that we would definitely be gone very quickly, the answer came: "Do you want to explain my work to me now? It's up to us who we serve in our house!". We then preferred to leave straight away! Very unprofessional and not normal. The Thüringer Hof restaurant showed us how to do it much better. Her answer is then directly debunking (capitalization, "it's not").Customer service is obviously not her thing! And mutual respect was not possible at all...when asked whether you could go to the big table as an exception can put in the shade, came the impudent answer. their experienced service staff. If you read the other negative comments, this is obviously not an isolated case. Good luck anyway, they'll need it.

Right next to the Nikoleikirche we were able to eat well and end the evening.

The food was super tasty. We had the duck and the pork fillet and both were excellent. The staff, led by the boss, was totally friendly, just like the boss herself. The outdoor seating area is nicely done and despite its location right next to the St. Nicholas Church, it is not unpleasantly noisy from passers-by. We would also like to thank you for the extra effort to decorate our table for our wedding day. We were definitely happy and satisfied.

Mooie locatie met historische betekenis (Gymnasium waar o.m. Wagner heeft gestudeerd. Fijne sfeer, vriendelijke bediening. Snelle service. Fantastische maaltijd genoten!

Unfreundliche Bedienung. Toilette 1 € wurde von der Inhaberin nicht erstattet weil ich nicht beweisen konnte , das ich die Toilette benutzt hatte. Ich hatte sie von einer Mitarbeiterin öffnen lassen, weil sie nach 12:00 Uhr noch verschlossen war. Besser eine andere Lokalität wählen.

The best dinner I had during my stay in Leipzig, very tasty and filling. They have an English menu for the tourists with poor German skills.

We stopped there at lunchtime during the city festival because we actually just wanted to have a drink there. Well, a fries came with it.😉 It was really nice there. The service was so nice and funny and the value for money was simply unsurpassed. What I would like to emphasize: there is a lot of emphasis here on regionality and seasonality ❤️

Ganz freche, genervte und unhöfliche Bedienung! Rassistische Sprüche gegenüber den Gästen sind no Go! Wir wollten angesichts des unangebrachten Benehmens der Kellnerin nicht mehr bleiben, daher können wir kein Feedback über die Speisen abgeben. Wer dennoch mutig ist, es auszuprobieren - good luck!

Very rude and impolite service! Racist remarks towards guests are no go! P.S. The waitress feedback below says more than 1000 reviews combined. This is how they talk to the guests, exactly in this tone.

Wir waren mit 9 Personen im Restaurant und waren recht zufrieden mit Bedienung und den Speisen - solide Brauhausküche. Portionen ordentlich, Preise passend. Einziger Wermutstropfen war die mehr als unglückliche Reaktion der Serviceleiterin auf eine Reklamation einer Speise. Statt ein einfaches "wir bedauern", kamen langatmige Erklärungen, warum es denn passiert und dass es eigentlich nicht so schlimm sei. Fehler passieren überall, da muss man als Dienstleister souverän bleiben. Für uns war dieser Redeschwall leider der Stimmungskiller an dem Abend.

Food very good, very nice service

Food was not warm lukewarm and microwaved. Not recommended, service is nice but the food doesn't make up for it. Once and not again

A good little gasthaus, the dishes are really good and quite exotic for a French person (honestly I wasn't betting on the citrus sauerkraut gratinated with duck breast, it's just excellent :)

Leider können wir die unfreundliche Art am Telefon nur bestätigen. Wir wollten telefonisch einen Tisch bestellen. So unfreundlich wurde ich tatsächlich noch nie abgewiesen. Tisch gibt's nicht und Tschüss. Da hat man keine Lust mehr das Restaurant zu besuchen.

Well, I was there once with a family friend. Won't go there again. The food was ok, the service was even worse. We were treated somewhat condescendingly. When we went to have the children's leftovers packed up, the waitress said this wasn't common practice in this restaurant. Only when I made my displeasure known was the food packed. If I pay an average of 25 euros for a meal, I can probably expect to take the leftovers with me.

We were there on a Saturday afternoon, in the café when the weather was good. The cake was small and expensive for €6.10 with cream and not even good. An outrage. Topped only by the unfriendly innkeeper ever. When we "stole" two chairs from the neighboring table after politely asking, we were reprimanded imperiously and condescendingly through half the coffee: "The chairs stay where they are!" When politely pointed out, you could also say that nicely, the sentence was included repeated even more emphatically. A tourist rip-off - never again! If we could, we would give 0 stars... And if the answer is that the guest did not behave in a hospitable manner and the excuse is an escape route, almost everything has been said: the fact is, it is neither about access (keyword: bordering the place with flower pots!!!) nor about an escape route, but only um: used chairs (i.e. paid seats) versus tables. Like I said: rip off. Because we had ordered and would have ordered 8 of us. The only person who was unfriendly was the host, because we had already asked the staff beforehand and therefore asked for unused chairs at the neighboring table... Conclusion after answer: All the excuses, doubly pathetic.

The food was great. My son got something to paint and a Kinderschnitel that isn't even on the menu. We'd love to come back

Friendly, unobtrusive service, relaxed atmosphere with comfortable outdoor seating. Delicious food. There is a good selection of savory and sweet treats for both large and small appetites. The dishes were well seasoned. Cruets on the tables leave nothing to be desired - there's even Worchester sauce! Delicious drinks including homemade lemonades. We were happy twice!

Good, delicious, fresh cuisine... 5 stars would be perfection... that's why I think it's top 4 stars

Leider schon beim Versuch der Reservierung unfreundlich abgefertigt worden. Reservierung über die Internetseite funktioniert nicht. Telefonisch wurde - nach Abfrage der Reservierungsdaten - unfreundlich darauf verwiesen, dass September noch lange hin sei und man eine Reservierung per Mail durchführen soll. Wir haben den Tipp des Restaurants "wenn uns das nicht passt, könnten wir es woanders versuchen" befolgt ...

In een vol restaurant toch een plekje kunnen krijgen. We werden heel vriendelijk bediend. Veel keuze, ook seizoensopties. Eten was erg smakelijk.

Lovely German restaurant in the heart of Leipzig. The food is delicious (I had the carp) and freshly made. Drinks are excellent, too with seasonal and regional specials. Prices are average. Service is very kind, fast and attentive.

The shrimp were still frozen but I got some ice cream

Food was tasty, but it was very loud. Service was nice, thank you very much!

An insider tip! Super Service. Great food! Great atmosphere!

Friendly service. Wiesngoulash and Duck breast was flavourful and delicious! Highly recommended.

Great location, very tasty food, also inexpensive, thank you for the spontaneous lunch on Easter Sunday!! Not a given anymore these days.

Best wiesngulasch I've had in Germany so far!!! Kartoffel Knödel soft like clouds. Top. Everything we had was great and the service is outstanding! I felt like I was at my grandma's. And also I haven't seen such good service in a very long time, super professional! Thank you so much for having us on a holiday, and Frohe Ostern to you all! We'll happily come again. Highly recommend!

Benehmen sucht man Vergebens beim dortigen Personal. Der Kunde wird in Form einer Massenabfertigung auch gerne mal angemotzt, weil "so viel zu tun" sei. Wer keine Kunden langfristig binden will, der hat wohl schon.

Service and atmosphere very nice, but the "Austria" schnitzel had a special cinnamon note that unfortunately, in my opinion, doesn't go with a schnitzel.

The very rough reception was made up for by great service staff. Unfortunately, my duck breast was done, but not dry, but the skin was limp. And some beans were woody. The sauce was great, but it could have been more. The food came super quickly, unfortunately too quickly for us as the bottle of champagne we ordered wasn't even there yet. The atmosphere is really nice, but you have to be sure-footed. Update after reply from the restaurant: I did mention the woody beans and since I don't want to spend another half hour discussing possible abnormalities, I'll basically only say something about one thing. I rewarded the fact that the food was delicious and the staff was great with a decent tip.

We really liked it here. The ambience is very nice and inviting. The food was very good. There is a very nice selection. There is something for everybody. The service was very good, friendly and attentive.

Comfortable, homely and warm. Very nice and attentive staff. Drinks came immediately, food was served quickly and freshly. My crispy duck with dumplings and red cabbage was super delicious. I was allowed to eat my husband's side salad, which was also rich, fresh and good. Had a lovely evening in a friendly atmosphere

Sehr lecker und in klasse Atmosphäre, das Gemäuer ist sehenswert und perfekt restauriert. Fußläufig in der Innenstadt erreichbar. Guter Service!

Very cozy inn and extremely child-friendly! Thank you for the lovely evening

We fell upon this place looking for somewhere to eat and fortune smiled down on us. The service was fast and friendly (family owned and operated), and the food was fabulous. Prices were perfect. I think reservations are preferred, but they were able to slide us in on a busy Christmas Market evening, and we're so grateful they did. You won't find a better meal in Leipzig.

We booked our table in advance and spent a few cozy hours eating and drinking. Can only be recommended. As an old Leipziger, it was my first time here and I'll definitely be back.

The service is simply top notch: explains dishes with a background of history, while being super friendly and warm. The food: as you can see in the picture, it's beautifully prepared - and it tastes good too! Drinks came quickly, attentive when it was dry. The prices are a bit high but this is city pedestrian zone...

Good service, delicious food and drinks, rather sober atmosphere.

Dear guesthouse team, I'm still excited. I've often walked past while strolling in Leipzig and finally stopped by last weekend. Luckily, without pre-ordering, there was still a 'table for two' on Saturday evening. The reception and service was very friendly, warm and accommodating, which continued throughout the evening. Always attentive and concerned about the well-being of the guest. And now to the other highlight: the food. It was extremely tasty. For a long time I have missed what this restaurant conjured up on the plate. Here we cook with love and you can taste it. NO ready-made food from the hot air oven or weighed ingredients stirred together in the pot. Hearty, down-to-earth home cooking is served with joy. Rustic atmosphere where it's fun to go out to eat. You haven't seen the last of me, because I want to try the other dishes too. A visit that made you happy, full and satisfied and is recommended. Keep it up and thank you very much for that!!! GourMic from Erfurt

The food was delicious and fresh, service was totally Asian, nice and friendly. However, to take 6.50 euros for a small appetizer slat, really just a side dish, is a rip-off. That's why never here again... we were disappointed

Service - very nice and friendly; Food - very tasty, especially local cuisine; Price wise- ok; Atmosphere - very pleasant. I'll definitely come back there!

Were in Leipzig yesterday and were looking for a restaurant with good German, home-style food. We passed the restaurant at lunchtime and were able to reserve a table for the evening without any problems. The food was very tasty and you didn't have to wait long, the service was very nice. Gladly again

Very nice restaurant with a rustic atmosphere. The food was very tasty and the service was very accommodating. I can highly recommend this restaurant.

Every visit to the restaurant is simply good.

Very friendly managers and very tasty…thank you

Great gastronomy. Was a pleasure. Any time.

Sehr voll, essen wirklich gut mit super netter Bedienung.

Rustikale Einrichtungen, im Winter etwas frisch in dem Raum und nicht ganz angenehm beim Essen. Gänsebrust mit Rotkraut und Klöße waren leider nur lauwarm, Geschmacklich sonst gut abgestimmt. Service freundlich und nett. Befindet sich im Zentrum neben der Nikolaikirche und damit sid direkt keine Parkplätze vorhanden. Beim Gang auf die Toilette sollte beim Personal erst gefragt werden da sonst 1 Euro fällig wird, da es aucheine öffentliche Toilette ist.

Für Toilette im Keller ist 1 Euro zu zahlen

Gänse- und Entenbrust wäre sehr Bissfest und trocken, schade, so etwas muss nicht sein

Achtung - Zahlung nur bar oder mit deutscher EC-Karte möglich. Internationale Debit- und Kreditkarten werden nicht akzeptiert. Das Essen fanden wir gut. Sehr traditionelle Küche. Schmeckt wie bei Mutti.

Wir waren zum Weihnachtsessen mit der Familie da. An sich ist das Gasthaus eine schöne Räumlichkeit. Was dann "die Suppe versalzt", ist die Erwartungshaltung an das Lokal bei Betrachtung des Preisniveaus. Die Tische sind sehr schlicht, Stühle ungepolstert und folglich schnell unbequem. Die Tischdeko bestand aus billigen und dreckigen Batteriekerzen. Allgemein wirkte das Ambiente dadurch ein wenig kühl. Der Service war stets bemüht. Essen und Getränke wurden nach Bestellung zügig gebracht, allerdings war die Kommunikation mit nahezu allen Servicekräften (bis auf einer) aufgrund rudimentärer Sprachkenntnisse des Personals schwierig. Grundprinzipien der Bedienung, wie z.B. Essen und Getränke werden nicht quer über den Tisch gerreicht und am Besten noch durch alle Hände gegeben, werden kaum umgesetzt. Kommen wir zum Essen. Eine grundsolide und gut bürgerliche Speisekarte zu halt doch etwas höheren Preisen als im Gasthof nebenan.... Das Essen war gut, nur meine Frau hatte Pech mit ihrem Essen (Ente schlecht ausgelöst, zäh, schlecht zubereitet; Soljanka war eher eine Gulaschsuppe mit Wursteinlage). Die Erwartung wurde an sich nicht ganz erfüllt, da die Portionen zu den Preisen fast zu klein waren. Bei zwei von drei Fischgerichten am Tisch wurde man den Eindruck nicht los, dass es sich um wirklich einfachste TK-Ware handelte.

Ein gemütliches klassisches Gasthaus in einem Sehr schönen Ambiente. Mit freundlicher Bedienung und einem fabelhaften gutem Essen. Von mir eine klare Empfelung für alle die auf gute bürgerliche Küche stehen!

Top Service! Top Essen! Top Lage!

Sehr nettes Team. Schnell serviert. Essen sehr gut. Alle bei meiner schwerbeschädigten Mutter total hilfsbereit. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Super Bedienung, Super Essen, ich hab Currywurst im Glas kennengelernt, sehr zu empfehlen.

Schon das zweite mal hier und immer wieder alles super.

Danke noch einmal an den Chef. Die Unterhaltung mit uns war sehr angenehm und der Erdbeerpunsch eine Wucht, das Essen können wir leider nicht bewerten, da wir ja nur den köstlichen Punsch getrunken haben. Der Preis für 2,50€ ein absoluter Geheimtipp! Preis Leistung definitiv korrekt. Bis zum nächsten mal👍, dann probieren wir auch Ihr Essen👍😀

Wir waren heute spontan mit 8 Personen da. Man kam uns gleich freundlich entgegen. Der Service und das gesamte Team waren echt super, freundlich und sehr nett. Das Essen war echt genial, da hätte man den Teller ablecken wollen. Wir sagen nochmal Danke, und hoffentlich mal wieder..

Sehr leckeres Essen, gute Portionen und auch der Service passt! Immer gerne wieder¡¡¡

Einfach authentisch, hier fließt Herzblut und das merkt man als Gast. Die Gerichte sind sehr lecker,der Service sehr freundlich und schnell. Wir waren bei jedem Leipzig Besuch hier und das wird so bleiben!

Spitzen Gasthaus, sehr leckeres und heißes essen. Die Rinderroulade war erste Sahne wie bei Oma und das rotkraut war genau so spitze, hat geschmeckt und sah auch so aus wie selbstgemacht. Die kräftige dunkle Soße noch dazu war geschmacklich einwandfrei. Die soljanka war gut aber hat etwas an dickem gefehlt. Wenn Rinder roulade dann hier. Weiter so!

Sehr freundliches Wirtspaar und flinke Bedienungen. Auch ohne Reservierung ist es möglich dort zu essen. Bestellungen wurden schnell aufgenommen und wir mussten nicht lange auf Getränke oder Essen warten,obwohl es sehr voll war. Das Essensangebot ist vielseitig und alles war sehr lecker.

Hallo! Ich war jetzt das dritte mal in Leipzig und auch zum dritten Mal in diesem Lokal! Vom Geheimtipp bis hin zu meinem Lieblingslokal geworden. 🙏 Essen top! Service top und auch sehr freundlich unterhalten sich auch mit jemanden. Ambiente top! Liebe Grüße aus Rheinland Pfalz

Nettes Gasthaus ,Lecker Essen Da nimmt man gerne Wartezeit in Kauf 5⭐️ Jederzeit Wieder

Super lecker, sehr nette Chefin.

Sehr leckeres Essen und superfreundliche Bedienung. Wir kommen gerne wieder und geben eine klare Empfehlung.

All five stars! Tasty food, reasonable price, friendly and English speaking nice lady server, beautiful interior. We had a great lunch here:)

Ansprechendes Restaurant mit bodenständigen Gerichten zum angemessenen Preis, sehr nettes Personal!!

Kann man nur weiter empfehlen, sehr gutes Essen zu einen vernünftigen Preis. Das Schweinestek Au Four war sehr lecker 😊

Hier kann ich kurz und bündig sagen, leckeres Essen in tollem Ambiente mit freundlichem Service. Beim nächsten Besuch in Leipzig kommen wir gern wieder.

Gute Küche....freundliches Personal, schönes Ambiente, was braucht man mehr...

Tolles Essen, super Service und tolles Ambiente. Kann ich nur weiter empfehlen....👍👍👍😊😊😊

Auf eine Empfehlung hier gegessen und es hat sich gelohnt. Die Rinderroulade ist sehr zu empfehlen und die Essensauswahl ist umfangreich. Zusätzlich gibt es anscheinend eine Saisonale Karte und Tagesempfehlungen. Die Getränkeauswahl ist gut und Bedienung freundlich und aufmerksam.

Hotel okay nur leider war das Zimmer sehr kühl
