Residenz Cafe & Restaurant in Weimar

Went there for dinner yesterday Many thanks to our charming waitress Would love to come back The Lisa

It was a great breakfast, the service was very friendly and attentive. We will definitely come back next time we visit Weimar.

Full house - and still very friendly, attentive service! Thank you!😊

There were 7 of us in this lovely restaurant where we felt very welcome. The service was super nice and friendly, and the food was very, very tasty. In addition to classics, the menu also included imaginative, interesting dishes and overall we are completely satisfied :)

Birthday breakfast was a success. I invited my friend to breakfast on the occasion of her birthday. Reservation hassle-free. Always friendly and accommodating with the right pinch of humor. The breakfast was good, but not very good. The bacon was slightly too dry, as were the scrambled eggs. Unfortunately the tables are too small. If everything is on it, it will be very tight. Basically, it doesn't fit more than a large coffee and a small plate of cake. It could have been a little warmer, but not much. The atmosphere is great, the waitresses are nice and accommodating. All in all good but not outstanding. When you arrive, you should keep in mind that as a guest you cannot drive and park directly in front of Dad Café. The underground car park at the Dorint Hotel is a few hundred meters away and is easily accessible, and the path also takes you past the great city center. We'll be back, but it didn't make it to number one on our must-visit locations.

We actually only have the fondest memories of Resi and its food, but we were quite disappointed this time. It took a very long time. However, when the waitress is with you, the contact is very nice. Unfortunately the pumpkin pasta didn't taste good at all. The food was nicely prepared, but didn't taste like anything. Everything was missing: salt, pepper, onions, garlic, spices... there was nothing on it, not even parmesan. Ambience is still nice :;

We ate here every time we visited Weimar (very often). However, this was our last visit. At lunchtime around half past one we were completely ignored and then left without being served. In the evening around 5:30 p.m. we waited about 25 minutes until our order was taken, even two tables that came after us were ahead of us!! The food itself was completely seasoned with pepper, some of it was inedible, the dumplings were too firm and not fresh. Rostbrätel consisted only of fat and cartilage. But we were entertained. While waiting, we noticed that the cake display case was still half full of cakes (bottom) being cleaned with cleaner on top and the cleaner was spread throughout the display case. Restaurant seems to be getting old.

Very courteous and friendly service as well as a delicious breakfast! We'd love to come back

Very nice restaurant, unfortunately the cake conference is

Lovely German restaurant with a terrace right at the foot off Schloss Weimar. Service was very lovely and food was quite good. Worth a visit!

Very friendly and courteous service, delicious food. Great value for money. Definitely recommended!

Good food and delicious cakes. Good ambience, nice and fast service

The shortage of skilled workers in the catering industry has been clearly noticed. In a house that suggests high standards, one would have expected a friendly, guest-oriented reception from the staff. We were treated as undesirables. What future might this attractive establishment have with this staff?

Had breakfast twice - great selection and the staff are exactly right at their job. Top

Very nice restaurant! Excellent and friendly service.

Absolutely not recommended for breakfast!!! Portions are outrageously small and not particularly tasty… if you want a nice breakfast that tastes good and where you get something for your money you should look for another place.

Resi is a wonderful, cozy and stylish café - has been around for decades. Perfectly located between the old town and the park, it offers a welcome rest for the feet and of course the palate is not neglected either. From sinful cakes to a nice selection of tea, savory and sweet breakfasts and the lunch menu is recommended. On nice weekends, a reservation is helpful.

Very, very nice, stylishly furnished café, although there was hardly any possibility of getting a seat at the onion market yesterday, we only had to wait 5 minutes and the friendly lady at the entrance assigned us a place, comfortable on the sofa. Super friendly, fast and uncomplicated service. Super super delicious cake. Keep it up.

We ordered 2 hot drinking chocolates. It tasted very watery and hardly like chocolate. For €4.50 you would expect something better. The service seemed overwhelmed even though there wasn't much going on.

We were at the Resi yesterday. At the same time, the onion market is taking place in Weimar. The service was super nice, super quick and wonderfully refreshing. We would love to come back!

Friendly, humorous service and high-quality products with exceptionally good taste. Despite the onion market and the busy times, a joke on your lips and a friendly smile on your face - that's quality.

The people there are super friendly and create a super pleasant atmosphere. There are also great vegan options on the menu. The vegan pancakes are really to die for.

What friendly service in this fine delicacy!! Highly recommended!

Nice café, with delicious cakes and friendly service. However, if you know the history of the café, there are still a few pictures of the famous visitors on the wall and maybe... a little historical explanation.

We went to Resi today for my child's birthday breakfast and we received a very warm welcome. The staff was super friendly and accommodating, every request was implemented immediately. We'd love to come back. Thank you

We really liked the Residenz Café. The food was delicious and there is something for every taste. The service was very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, at times it seemed a bit stressful and uncoordinated.

Very friendly service, nice atmosphere, right next to the city palace. I would visit it again!

Always a great daily menu, delicious drinks, top service and also beautiful romantic rooms for wedding nights with very nice views from the room terrace. Clear recommendation. Updated: Even 14 years after the wedding, it's still a favorite. Good product quality, very tasteful. We still feel almost better than at home there :-)

The staff is extremely warm, accommodating and fun for everyone. The breakfast selection is impressive and there is something for everyone. Everything is prepared with love and very tasty.

Not necessarily recommended.. Service mediocre..and not very friendly... Food selection is manageable..there are better restaurants in Weimar..

It's been a long time since I've had breakfast at Resi. 1st class! Very tasty and sufficient. Great, very pleasant operation and service. So nothing has changed. 😉

We left after a long wait, even though it wasn't full and several waiters walked right past us.

Nette Location, man kann schön draußen sitzen. Lustlose Bedienung, kein Wort zuviel, aber vielleicht hatte er einen schlechtenTag. Schlechte Fleischqualität, guter Salat.

It's happened several times, including among friends, so I have to say something now! It has become an absolute bad habit in Resi to portion the loose tea so small that the result is actually just hot water with little taste. Does it have to be that way? Do we really have to save money on something like this? I hope someone responsible is reading this. There is only a pained smile from certain service staff. We love having breakfast at Resi or stopping by for a piece of cake on the weekend and relaxing. Unfortunately we are not coffee drinkers. So please!!...one more crumb of tea and you'll make the people of Weima happy!

Were there for lunch today. Very nice staff and super delicious food. We'll be back.

After many years we were guests at the Resi again. Beautiful ambience, friendly service and delicious cake left nothing to be desired.

Super delicious food, friendly staff :) We would love to come back 👍

We were here twice in a row. It's awesome. I ate the world's best bruschetta here. The rest was also great. It's a shame that we live almost 400 km away.

From booking to the great and varied breakfast to payment, everything was to our complete satisfaction. Many thanks to the nice staff who had everything under control.

Sat on the outside terrace when the weather was nice. Very friendly service despite the seats being fully booked. Very good food!

The cultural highlights of Weimar were combined with a culinary and very service-oriented experience - in the Residenz Restaurant we were served, even looked after, above all else, attentively and courteously. Small and unconventional special requests with Chinese guests were met with great courtesy and, it seemed, effortlessly orchestrated by Sabrina. A very special thank you for that. Our next trip to Weimar will definitely have this culinary destination again.

Highly recommended! The service is super friendly, you feel welcome. We were there for breakfast. The food was well prepared, very tasty and the price-performance ratio was good. We would love to come back 😊

Great service, excellent fried eggs and salmon with very tasty, mild horseradish. Plus a fine coffee, highly recommended.

The two of us had something to eat and drink outside in the afternoon when the sun was shining. The service was friendly and quick. The food was also tasty. We had roast pork and salmon with noodles. One drink each. All in all good. My beer was a bit "stale" and not at the right temperature, I think it had already been half full on the tap for at least 15 minutes. (It was 3:45 p.m....I was the only one outside with a beer). That's why I didn't order a second one. But otherwise really ok and you can eat and drink here.

Very well run café. We felt comfortable.

We were there for breakfast. Unfortunately, the service wasn't particularly friendly or attentive. Food was okay, but nothing special. The portions were quite small, especially for the pancakes. All in all, not a recommendation.

Dear resi team, After a long time, my wife and I were once again in the Residenzcafe on our way from Berlin. Many beautiful memories and encounters are associated with this fine place and also with previous hospitality. This morning shortly after eight we came in, there were only two guests present apart from us, otherwise there were reservation signs on all the tables. Of course I can understand reservations, but if you look closely, all the reservations started after 9-10am. A young waiter came up and asked if we had a reservation. No, I said. Then I'll have to see if there's a free seat, he said without looking up. After a little while he showed us a table in the corridor to the door in the completely free café as the only option. We sat down, thought about the good times in a wicker chair by the window, when smoking was still allowed, drank coffee and ate scrambled eggs. We didn't hear a please or a thank you, a look or a "good day", let alone a "goodbye", which is what I didn't expect at the end, since it was really the first time we hadn't been able to give a tip. The not so nice review may not matter, because the Resi is still very busy and such a criticism is probably quickly brushed aside, but somehow I felt that today's early morning visit was a farewell visit.

It's been a few years since I was at Resi and I remembered the food as good, but the place as a whole as being rather conservative and stuffy. That's why I was skeptical when my friend suggested I go there today with two small children - and I was very pleasantly surprised. The service was very child-friendly and had various good ideas for responding to the little ones' wishes and needs. There is also a small table with children's books and art supplies. The food was very tasty, beautifully prepared and the menu offers both unusual and classic Thuringian cuisine. I was positively impressed by the selection of gluten- and lactose-free as well as vegan cakes as well as vegan and vegetarian dishes, caffeine-free coffee specialties with oat milk and non-alcoholic cocktails. This is a modern gastronomy that dares to step out of the comfort zone and thus appeals not only to younger guests, but also to people who find it difficult to eat and drink elsewhere due to unbearable conditions. We can only recommend it and would love to come back!

We came from Munich and were by far in the best cafe there is. Super friendly, super good.

Fast and very friendly service. Every question about the dishes on offer was answered professionally. Our group breakfast a la carte was delicious and filling.

Great restaurant with a nice terrace and very good cuisine. Unfortunately, there is currently a road construction site in the immediate vicinity. Nevertheless, a visit is definitely worth it.

Great breakfast in a nice atmosphere!

Once again it tasted very good.

We always enjoyed going to Resi, now we wanted to introduce it to our friends. The reservation of a table for the following day was still friendly, you could probably push together another table and add another chair. Otherwise it is fully booked. It seems strange when there are no other guests in the restaurant apart from the five of us and then while we are eating we are already setting up for the following day's breakfast. Two out of five napkin caps were also missing from the place settings. When asked, the waitress bent down, picked one up, threw it over the table and said: "The other one is at the back, I knew I had uncovered five, I'm not dumb." My counterpart then fished it out from underneath. The napkins were not exchanged. Unfortunately, the mashed potatoes weren't any, but rather chunky dumpling dough. When asked about this, there was only a mumbled answer, "then something wasn't enough." Otherwise, the food was reasonably tasty, but the service was below all dignity. I wanted to get grumpy and say something during the "napkin campaign", but my friends asked me not to. What the previous “everything is already full, but we can still push” fuss when making the reservation meant remains a mystery to us. However, I couldn't help but say "all the other guests have cancelled". We no longer recommend this restaurant.

Beautiful place and great selection for vegans too. Nice, quick staff :) Gladly again and again.

Nice location, quick service, delicious food, the chicken salad Relatively good with parking 🅿️ Well suited as a starting point for a visit to Weimar

I was a regular here in my youth. Occasionally for breakfast in the last few years. And then yesterday. Located right in the heart of Weimar. I took a seat on the terrace. There weren't many guests there. I waited, the waiter looked past me several times and went in. Came out, stood there. No reaction... I made myself known with hand signals. I was handed the menu and looked in a different direction. No hello, nothing. I didn't feel recognized as a guest. The food itself was really good. Chicken juicy and cooked to perfection. I wasn't even asked if it was tasty or if I wanted anything else. Too bad. I was used to the service at Resi, open-minded staff with friendly and funny conditions. Many thanks to the kitchen. Dear Kevin, maybe you read it as a little suggestion for improvement.

Went to the Residenz Cafe today quite spontaneously, Sat on a beautiful terrace, and At the same time we had very nice service, highly recommended again and again.

Once an institution in Weimar, the Resi is, as the locals say, now pretty run down and has degenerated into a service desert with bad food and bad wine. Not going is clearly the best decision!

What can I say? Were there with a group of ten people. Everything worked out right from the start. Good service, good food, delicious drinks and a delicious whiskey sour at the end. Thank you again

While the reservation worked without any problems, the stay at the residence was unfortunately - and again - disappointing. Despite multiple recommendations, we cannot confirm this. We have lived in Weimar for years, but we have never eaten dumplings like this in any restaurant. The dumpling mixture was not loose and cooked through, there was a stone on the plate and the fried dumpling slices were mainly made up of leftover bread. The Mutzbraten was acceptable, the sliced ​​meat was unreasonable, the cream sauce was a tasteless mixture of water and cream, without any binding properties, only the broth was even more liquid. The staff, who were loudly annoyed, had our stay reduced to the shortest possible time. No recommendation is the best recommendation for staying there, and that on your 38th wedding anniversary.

A delicious light meal in agreeable surroundings. Reasonably priced and efficient service. A style of cafe that one thought had sadly died out!

Good breakfast and top service. Clear recommendation.

On May 25, 2024, the service seemed to be completely overwhelmed, even though it wasn't full. Not recommended...unfortunately. The food was small in terms of portion size and not particularly crafted. You had to ask for drinks and then wait... empty glasses weren't cleared away.

It was simply wonderful and we had a lot of fun with our more than charming service. A really great enjoyment experience with relaxation and a great ambience. Personally highly recommended are the Shakashuka and the Arabic ice cream with the fluffy cotton candy that looks like freshly spun wool threads. Really good.

Vegan breakfast that makes my vegan heart beat faster. Vegan cakes are also offered daily. Super friendly staff and quick service. If I'm in Weimar again, I'll definitely eat here again. Highly recommended.

Unfortunately, the food doesn't live up to what the price promises! Erratic and incorrect operation! It's a shame, I had promised more.

Very nice restaurant, staff very attentive. Food and Weimar beer were very tasty.

Very good breakfast (gardener) with fresh vegetables. Plus a large cappucino like it is made in Italy. Super!

Unfortunately a big disappointment. We, two people, had to wait 70 minutes for our breakfast, which only consisted of rolls and cold cuts, so it didn't require any time-consuming preparation. The café was nowhere near full, but we were put off several times with the comment that it was so full. Overall, an unreasonable service.

It felt like I was back at the Resi after 10 years and it just hasn't changed. The location is great, the food is delicious and the service is always courteous. I'm already looking forward to the next time.

Sehr leckeres Essen, super Service, sehr freundliches Personal. Wir sind begeistert. Vom Frühstück bis zum Abendessen ein Träumen.

The service was excellent, the food was very tasty and the ambience is really nice! An absolute recommendation

Very good quality of the food. I had veal liver Berlin style and was absolutely satisfied.

We spontaneously ate here today and were greeted and served very nicely. Great service and advice - the waitress is fully behind the business. Food was very tasty, we had braised meat and roasted meat - both very tasty and nicely presented. A must visit - highly recommended!

Breakfast as always very good, very clean. Polite to act. Always happy with reservation

The friendliness and service quality alone are worth the visit! But the food is also recommended (tip: fresh catch from the Werra Valley). We threaten to come back ;-)

I didn't know the "Resi" yet. Was very pleasantly surprised. Staff very friendly. Will definitely come back!

Went here to drink coffee and eat cake. The coffee tasted very good. Above all, there is also a glass of water, which is not done everywhere. The service was very attentive and friendly.

Even though we came without a reservation, we quickly got a free table and a great breakfast

Seit vielen Jahrzehnten bin ich mit vielen Gästen zum Frühstück oder Café am Nachmittag sehr zufrieden und nett bedient worden . Heute muss ich über ein verdorbenes Rost brätel hier berichten ! Das trotz Reklamation in Rechnung gestellt wurde ! Schade das die Kellnerin nicht die Kompetenz besitzen , das zur Zufriedenheit der Gäste zu klären und ehrlich mit der Situation umgegangen wird . Vielleicht hilft das als Hinweis um zu verhindern das der nächste Gast an einer Vergiftung erkrankt oder sogar stirbt !

Still retains its charm. Service very competent and friendly.

Have been to the Resi for a long time. Incredibly nice service, great cake and very cozy old interior.

Hello, it wasn't our first time there and we're always impressed. Great food, super friendly staff, something like that is not a given these days. Thank you again and see you next time.

Very good breakfast and nice service.

Wir kommen immer wieder gerne zum Frühstück hierhin.

Das Residenz Café hat auf gar keinen Fall mehr mit dem, früherer Zeiten zu tun. Wir sind einfach erschüttert. Wir hatten die Ochsenbäckchen für stolze 22€ pro Portion bestellt. Für mich unerklärlich, wie man als Koch so mieserabel ein solches, sonst ausgezeichnetes Gericht, zubrreiten kann. Es handelte sich hierbei auch um keine Ochsenbäckchen ( da ich selbst sehr viel koche) vermutlich war es Beinscheibe... Es war derart geschmacklos, einfach beschämend für dieses einst so super Restaurant. Da ist nichts geblieben. Aber wir hatten es schon vermutet, was uns hier erwartet. In unregelmäßigen Abständen ertönten aus der Küche laute Worte die man als Gast nicht hören möchte... Da wurde geschrieen und das S... Wort relativ häufig verwendet. Der junge Mann am Tresen machte auch keinen besonderen Eindruck auf uns - er erschien ebenso unprofessionell und obercool, wie es halt heutzutage oft zu sehen ist. Fazit für uns: Unter den momentanen Gegebenheiten absolut nicht zu empfehlen. Wir hoffen sehr, daß dieses wunderschöne Anwesen bald wieder bessere kulinarische Zeiten erlebt.

Sehr zu empfehlen!! Eure Servicekraft ist sehr freundlich, aufmerksam, natürlich und nicht aufgesetzt findet man nur selten 🤗 Danke für die Gastfreundschaft und das leckere Essen. PS der Kaiserschmarrn ist echt ein Geheimtipp 🤗

Auch wenn es schon spät war und wahrscheinlich alle schon fertig waren mit Frühstücken, wir haben unser Glück in dieser schönen Residenz versucht. Wir wurden trotz gut gefüllte Gastronomie sehr freundlich begrüßt und es wurde möglich gemacht dass wir noch einen Platz zum Frühstücken bekommen. Es gab eine sehr gute Auswahl an Frühstücksangebot und weil wir so begeistert waren haben wir auch auf die Mittags/Abend Speisen geschaut. Sehr zu empfehlen Mega wir kommen wieder.

Ein sehr gemütliches Café , in dem man entspannen kann und das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend ! 😊👍 Der Kuchen ist Spitzenklasse ! 🍰

Sehr nettes zuvorkommendes Personal. Gemütliches Ambiente mit super Service 😊👍

Eigentlich kein Geheimtipp mehr... Super freundliches Personal, ein Essen wie bei Muttern. Und ein gemütliches Ambiente

Leckere Hausmannskost, auch für Vegetarier. Die Dame vom Service war sehr professionell und zuvorkommend

freundlich Bedingung, leckeres Essen, Hunde willkommen

Tolle Deko, sehr nette Bedienung 😃 und es war lecker

Sehr sehr nette Bedienung :) Alles war sehr schnell zubereitet. Es gibt eine große Auswahl an tollen Frühstücks-Angeboten.

Das Resi ist immer einen Besuch wert.

Ein wunderschönes Café mit tollem Ambiente und einer sehr großen Auswahl an Kuchen und Torten.

Wir haben im August 2023 für 2 Nächte in der "RESI" übernachtet, um uns Weimar an zu schauen. Unser Zimmer war toll. Alles sauber, das Bad schön groß. Das Zimmer grenzte an die große Terrasse. Herrlich. Am Abend fand das Sommerfest der Resi statt. Es spielte eine Band lateinamerikanische Musik. Es wurde viel getanzt. Die Menschen waren bei guter Stimmung und fröhlich. Das Frühstück ist/war genial. Trotz vollem Lokal und voller Außenterrasse war die Bedienung auf zack und flott. Auch am 2. Morgen verlief das Frühstück für uns harmonisch, schnell und es war wieder sooo gut. Der Kellner hatte so viel zu tun und hat es sehr gut gemacht. Alle Achtung!

Kaffeehausstimmung mit gutgelauntem Personal und Essen.Egal ob Kuchen oder Leber.Alles hat uns super geschmeckt.Und wenn in einem ausgebuchten Cafe das Personal so freundlich und schnell arbeitet bin ich begeistert.Hier kommen wir immer wieder gern her.Danke an Mandy für die gute Laune und den schön gedeckten Tisch zum Frühstück!
