Restaurant Alter Fritz in Apolda

I'm really disappointed with our visit because we were looking forward to the new opening... The service was... Well... And the food was so obviously inferior that it almost hurt... The "Stramme Max" passed made from packaged cold bread, topped with packaged cheap ham, the fried potatoes were half burnt and the salad was very similar to the cheap bags from the supermarket... My girlfriend wanted the currywurst with fried potatoes instead of fries. This was not possible... The schnitzel was ok and the portions were large but unfortunately that was it. It's a shame actually...

... Hello and good evening, nice to have you here... That would have at least been a good start. Instead, you felt like you were "disturbing"... We were given a small table (2 people) next to a large family who were loudly planning their New Year's Eve celebration... Sponge over it. After we sat down at our table and I had to replace the chair because it was in danger of collapsing (the same thing happened to another guest), we had the impression... we had been forgotten. After a while someone came, took the drinks order and disappeared again (without many words... or a certain open, friendly manner). Slowly the place was filling up more and more... strange... people who came clearly after us (and were sitting closer to the bar) were immediately provided with drinks. A beer and 2 cokes arrived at our place... in the meantime about 20 minutes had passed. A while later, our food order was taken (that's why we came by). I ordered the “Taxi Platter” and my partner the “Assi Platter” (the dishes were called something similar). Both are actually very simple dishes that aren't really complicated or time-consuming. After a good 55 minutes the third service person came with the food... and cutlery was only laid out afterwards... (I know it a little differently, either it's already on the table or... it's laid out by a waitress shortly after the drinks). I have to say, purely visually, my taxi plate seemed adequate in size... but appearances can be deceiving. On the one hand, the Leberkäse was sliced ​​almost very thinly... and on the other hand, there was so much onion packed under the fried eggs... that it should be the main ingredient and the Leberkäse should only be a side dish. In addition, about 1 third of my fried potatoes were inedible... burnt and hard like plastic. My girlfriend had something completely primitive, just a currywurst with fries. I'll say this very carefully, almost every snack bar can do this a little more creatively. A Thuringian bratwurst as a currywurst... that's ok... you can make it if it wasn't lukewarm. In terms of consistency, the "curry sauce" consisted of rather liquid tomato paste... into which a breeze of "curry powder" was sunk... The fries that came with it were the simplest, most boring standard frozen fries you can find. It's better to have a few fewer fries (like they do in Mola these days), but instead, for example, sweet potato fries, wavy fries, or thick Belgian fries. These are then seasoned/salted appropriately... a simple but delicious dish would be ready. The price of around 15 euros... it was definitely not worth it. When we signaled that we would like to pay, it was acknowledged... but even then... it took a good 10-15 minutes before someone came with the bill, which I rounded up... . (tip), not even there...a "Did you like it..., can you have something else?", or thank you very much for being there, we would be happy to welcome you here again..., or at least..."have a nice evening and a nice Christmas time" ... just a simple phrase... but no, just a quietly murmured "thanks, goodbye." So even my partner was pretty annoyed by now, and also disappointed... we had somehow expected more from the evening. It may be, as some write here, that it was great, etc., that they had a "good" day..., but that should actually always be the case, at least the guest should have the feeling of being >welcome ! (and no, there is no need for a red carpet). Without a few changes, we won't be stopping by again anytime soon.

Unfortunately we were disappointed during our visit a few days ago. The waiter was, to put it nicely, very rustic. You felt uncomfortable ordering anything at all. Definitely missed career. There are a lot of wines on the menu, but in the end there was only one white and one red. Then you can write it on the card like that. The menu consists only of powerful meat dishes and 1 salad. You completely miss lighter food in the evening. It's not very contemporary. The portions are very large. Unfortunately it's over for us for now, maybe we'll try it again at beer garden time, with the hope that smaller dishes will also be offered there.

Food is very tasty, portions are generous and the staff is also very friendly. Simply great and I recommend it. Is worth a visit

We had a Christmas party there. Upon request it was only called buffet. OK. The offer for 28€/person was very limited, rice as a side dish alongside pasta and fried potatoes could not be offered. Very rude service upon arrival, rather sloppy. Food was ok, quite salty, no fireworks, but solid. The prices for drinks are very high. After 9 p.m., people no longer asked if anyone wanted something to drink. Our group was the only guest, actually there were too many of us. It's a shame, Apolda was so looking forward to it. I was there for the first and last time.

My partner and I decided to have dinner at the Schweizerhaus last night. We also got a table. I had the Brätl with fried onions and fried potatoes, which wasn't my taste at all and in my opinion didn't have much to do with Brätl. The onions were rolled in some spice powder and would be really gritty when eaten and inedible for me. The Brätl was a very thick slice of pork neck that was marinated in something and then fried. As I said, I know Brätl differently. The fried potatoes tasted good but were quite dry and way too much. The side salad looked like a pre-cut salad, which in itself isn't bad, but not for the price. Also, the dressing was way too sour so we gave half the salad back. My partner's farmer's schnitzel was OK. Service seemed very overwhelmed to me. And if you, as a guest, have to listen to the arguments between our colleagues and the boss, that's not so great either.

We were there with a larger group. The food was very salty and unfortunately one schnitzel was still raw inside. The service was rather rough. Maybe we just had a bad evening, but I won't come again.

Apart from a few understandable “teething problems” shortly after the opening, it was a decent start to what will hopefully be a long Schweizerhaus era. The quality of the food was top notch, less than 20 minutes from ordering to serving.

Today we were in the newly opened Schweizerhaus. It is very comfortably furnished. The schnitzel was really excellent. Keep it up.

Newly opened restaurant with limited offerings. The guests' wishes were hardly taken into account. The service was overwhelmed and the waiting times for drinks and food were very long.

The ambience looks great but that's it. Ordering drinks and getting them was also "quick" but we would forget to eat first and then after more than 2 hours we said we were leaving

Good luck and all the best for the new opening.

Very nice location and great operator... it was a nice celebration

We had a great celebration. Despite the uncertain weather situation, the response was quick and flexible, so that we were able to eat and sit comfortably both inside at the table and outside. The beer garden is beautifully decorated. As soon as drinks were ordered, they were on the tables a short time later. The buffet was very great. The food tasted wonderful. A great selection. All the guests raved about the celebration. The location is great, the food was very good and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. 👍🏼 We can only recommend old Fritz :)

Great team, everything very personal! Absolute flexibility depending on the weather with a well-maintained exterior and modern interior or both! We sat very comfortably in the shade of the trees on a warm summer day, the terrace is a dream! Quality top!!!

Our family celebration was in very good hands here. Friendly, professional, clean, fair prices… we get full marks here. Kindleb Catering deserves a special mention here. The buffet was elaborately designed and prepared according to our wishes. Simply delicious. The prices were more than fair!

Unfortunately, we were invited here for a sad occasion, but nevertheless we were served very nicely, even missing seats were quickly filled, the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Thank you ... of course we hope to visit this restaurant on another occasion to be allowed.✨✨✨

There is only one thing you can say about this restaurant: an absolutely great experience. The food was top class at the highest level. The service left nothing to be desired, was very nice, always friendly and super attentive. The ambience shows very good and modern taste. We felt more than comfortable in this restaurant and we can recommend it with a clear conscience. Many thanks to the team at Alten Fritz, it was a wonderful and successful evening.

50th birthday. The food was very tasty and beautifully presented. The staff was friendly, very attentive to the children and offered them something to keep them busy. The interior design was well thought out and harmoniously furnished and not intrusive. The background music offered something for every taste and was at a pleasant volume. When you entered the restaurant, it didn't smell like frying fat or fried food (as in other restaurants and pubs), but rather pleasant and fresh. Thank you for this successful evening.

It was very nice, the food and the service and the ambience, just great

Due to double occupancy elsewhere, we were lucky enough to be able to book at "Alten Fritz" for the planned day at fairly short notice. Since we were essentially self-catering, meaning we brought our own food and drinks, I can't give a review at this point. Thanks to the good weather, we were only outside with about 30-35 people, but we could have gone inside, but it would have been quite cozy. So we had the front room to put our stuff down and put it down. During the entire time there was someone on site for preparations, decoration and setting of the tables, help in the kitchen and - very pleasant for us - washing dishes :) We felt really comfortable and thanks to the mishap at the other location, the Apolda residents among our guests also had the opportunity to get to know this location from the inside. ;) Since the bathrooms are very narrow, there is unfortunately no space for changing diapers. We simply used a table inside. I didn't pay attention to the presence of a child's chair because we don't need one yet. I can imagine that we or some of our guests will be "repeat offenders" - provided that "Old Fritz's" calendar isn't full ;)

We celebrated our son starting school here. We were completely satisfied. Great service, nice atmosphere and delicious food from Mr. Kindleb. We wish the team all the best and will definitely recommend you. :)

Simply great, ambience, service, food and definitely worth another visit, even if it's a bit far from Chemnitz, we'll be back and the chef is great, thank you for the soooooooooooo great food (Nico Kindle) from Bad Sulza

This is how I imagine a nice location to celebrate. Nice ambience, everything was spotlessly clean, great service and then super delicious food. Class. Thank you for the nice day today.

Wir feierten den 60.Geburtstag in angenehmer Atmosphäre. Geschmackvolle Dekoration im Innen- und Außenbereich, wunderschöner Biergarten im Grünen und freundliche Bedienung durch Familie Müller. Das Essen (Brunch) von Herrn Kindleb war fantastisch. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis war auch okay. Wir können das Restaurant auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.

Es war eine rundum tolle Veranstaltung, die ich genauso immer wieder machen würde! Die Gastleute waren total lieb, zuvorkommend und auf Zack! Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Das Essen war super lecker und total schön angerichtet! Ein riesen Kompliment an das gesamte Team, es müsste viel mehr solcher Gaststätten in Apolda geben! Ich wünsche euch, dass noch viel mehr auf euch aufmerksam werden :) LG Svenja

Wie hatten uns letztes Wochenende zum feiern unserer Schuleinführung im "Alten Fritz" eingemietet. Unterm Strich die beste Entscheidung, die wir hätten treffen können. Die Location besticht durch eine ungezwungene Atmosphäre, der angrenzende Außenbereich läd bei schönem Wetter zum Cocktail trinken ein und durch das abgeschlossene Grundstück konnten die Kids entspannt spielen. Der Inhaber als auch sein junger Mitstreiter sorgten für eine ganz tolle Feierlichkeit. Beginnend bei der vorherigen Absprache, über die Vorbereitung, bis hin zu den aufmerksamen Augen am Abend, welche uns nie leere Gläser bescherten. Wir und unsere Gäste sagen besten Dank für diesen runden und unvergesslichen Tag. Für unsere nächste Familienfeier mit Sicherheit die erste Wahl. Daumen hoch für das Team vom "Alten Fritz"! Beste Grüße und weiter so Familie Oleschnewitz

Mein Großen Dank an die tolle Bewirtung und die angenehmen Gespräche. Es war sehr lecker und ich kann es nur weiterempfehlen. Ich freue mich schon auf die nächste Sause ;) Viele Grüße aus Dresden Mario

Haben dort unsere Hochzeit gefeiert und sowohl wir als auch unsere Gäste waren alle mehr als zufrieden. Location ist alles sehr schön gemacht, sauber und gepflegt. Wir konnten bei schönen Wetter auch den Außenbereich mit nutzen was Abends sehr toll aussieht. Netter und kommunikationsfreudiger Inhaber der auch auf Wünsche eingeht. Das Essen war sehr lecker und wunderschön angerichtet. Preisleistung ist denke ich nicht so schnell woanders zu finden. Wir werden ganz sicher noch weitere Feiern dort abhalten.

Wir haben die Jugendweihe unseres Sohnes dort gefeiert. Es war ein gelungener Nachmittag/Abend. Das Essen war sehr lecker und reichlich, die Betreiber sehr freundlich und umsichtig. Die Cocktails haben unsere Gäste begeistert. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder! Die Location an sich ist einfach toll, alles sauber und sehr gepflegt.

Super freundliche Bedienung, leckeres Essen und alles sauber. War schön hier! Vielen Dank.

Super Team und ein sehr schönes Lokal!

Habe heute eine sehr schöne Familienfeier gefeiert, die vom Service des Restaurants schön abgerundet wurde. Gastgeber und Kellner waren sehr freundlich und präsent. Der Koch war sehr freundlich und hat beim Abschied wert darauf gelegt, sich nochmal persönlich zu verabschieden und sicherzugehen, dass es gut geschmeckt hat. Das Buffet war sehr vielseitig und es schmeckte sehr gut. Ich habe nichts auszusetzen!

Wir haben Konfirmation im Alten Fritz gefeiert und das Essen war sehr lecker. Die Inhaber haben uns sehr wohl fühlen lassen und uns toll behandelt. Vielen Dank für die schöne Feier!
