Restaurant Café Stadt Frankfurt in Rüdesheim am Rhein

The burgers are delicious but could be a bit bigger. Natascha, the best service.

The staff were super friendly and the food was delicious. There was just one thing we found unbelievable: the outside terrace was packed, everyone was enjoying their delicious food and then someone sat there smoking. For me, that's a reason not to come back. When will this kind of thing finally be banned?

Not great, long wait for your food and then a plain schnitzel with fries! Not to be repeated.

Unfortunately, no recommendation for the "Stadt Frankfurt" We visited the "Stadt Frankfurt" restaurant during a trip to beautiful Rüdesheim, but were very disappointed. The evening started off slow. After sitting down, we had to wait a quarter of an hour for the menu, and then almost as long again for someone to take our order. The service seemed rather indifferent. The food, unfortunately, continued this experience. Everything tasted of convenience foods, not freshly cooked. The salad dressing obviously came from a package, and the classic side dishes for the Sauerbraten—dumplings, red cabbage, and sauce—were clearly not home-cooked. The meat in the Sauerbraten was okay, but couldn't save the overall impression. The low point was the Black Angus Burger, whose patty had the quality of a cheap frozen product. This has nothing to do with a premium burger. I honestly wonder where the many 5-star reviews for this restaurant come from. Based on our visit, I can only say: Rüdesheim is a beautiful place with many great restaurants – unfortunately, this one is not one of them for us.

Great food, dropped a star as the place only accepts cash.

Unfortunately very unfriendly service

"Our first visit – and we were completely impressed: Excellent food, attentive service, and very good value for money. We'd be happy to come back. Highly recommended."

The food was very good and plentiful. The venison goulash with cranberries is definitely recommended. It's just a shame that you can only pay in cash.

The food wasn't outstanding, but it was okay. It wasn't crowded, but it was busy. The service was friendly, although our children were bothered by the waitress stroking their heads several times as a friendly gesture. We found it unreasonable that we had to wait about an hour for our food without being informed beforehand. We didn't order anything unusual, which would explain the wait (salad and meat with fries).

The waitresses are all super friendly. The atmosphere is very cozy. We ate there two evenings and enjoyed, among other things, the knuckle of pork. Absolutely delicious! Reservations are highly recommended. Top location👍🏻

Very pleasant, friendly service, no salad as a side dish included in the price.

We had a great meal here! But we found the gentlemen who were serving us really bad. Grumpy and arrogant! The woman on the other hand was very friendly and helpful

The food, especially the grilled chicken breast, was delicious. Natascha kindly and easily arranged a nice table for us. We'd love to come back.

I can highly recommend it, the staff are really enthusiastic and the food is really good and tasty.

Very delicious food, friendly service We'll be back!

Very good food and top service 🙏

Very tasty food. Nice conditions. Will be happy to come again

Natascha is a nice waitress :) the food is very tasty I would eat there again anytime

Mega food and the price is still normal here, very nice service, everyone friendly, top

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ Café - Restaurant “Stadt Frankfurt” 📍 Rüdesheim am Rhein, Germany A pleasant and satisfying stop in the heart of Rüdesheim. We were happy with everything that was served—simple, well-prepared dishes that hit the spot. The desserts deserve a special mention—nicely done and a sweet way to end the meal. Service was smooth, and the setting had that classic, relaxed charm you hope for in a small-town café-restaurant. A reliable choice if you’re in the area and looking for a fuss-free, enjoyable meal.

I can't recommend this restaurant! I ordered venison goulash with spaetzle. The spaetzle were of the worst quality; they clearly cut corners! The meat was okay, but not particularly well prepared, as was the accompanying sauce. The homemade lemonade was the biggest disappointment—lukewarm tap water with syrup for €4.90. The service wasn't friendly, but not necessarily unfriendly either. The restaurant gave me the impression of a typical tourist trap. Yes, there is food, and it's edible, but the price and quality definitely leave a lot to be desired.

The food was wonderful and arrived very quickly. The waitress, Natascha, was very friendly.

Beautiful restaurant, wonderful food

Delicious food. Friendly and fast service. The chicken fillet with asparagus and schnitzel are highly recommended. Just like the home-made lemonade, beer and wine.

Very good food and friendly service. Even the dog was welcome and received treats.

The venison goulash was okay, but there was just one condition that had to be addressed too many times. Everything took a very long time.

An all-around perfect experience! 🤩 I was absolutely thrilled with my visit to this restaurant. From the moment you enter, you receive a warm welcome – the service was attentive, friendly, and professional from start to finish. You can tell the passion that goes into this work. The ambience is stylish and cozy at the same time – a perfect blend of elegance and a feel-good atmosphere. Ideal for both a relaxed dinner and special occasions. And the food? Simply outstanding! Every course tasted perfect, lovingly presented, and prepared with high-quality ingredients. I was particularly impressed by the creative combination of the dishes and the delicate balance of flavors. A huge compliment to the entire team (especially Natasha and Radek from the service team) 🙂🍀 I will definitely be back and wholeheartedly recommend the restaurant!

The food was absolutely fantastic, and our waitress Natascha was absolutely magical. Thank you so much 🥰

Very friendly service, we felt well looked after and the food was delicious. Natascha is a true treasure and immediately creates a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere.

Very nice restaurant, cozy, and delicious food. Many thanks for this wonderful evening to Natascha – our truly magical waitress.

Recommended, delicious asparagus with chicken and a schnitzel. friendly service, it was quite busy and despite the fact that there were two of them, it went quickly and very friendly. Unfortunately no photos taken. Will definitely come back.

We went to this restaurant because of the many good reviews. It was a quiet Monday afternoon, and almost all the tables were free. Since the sun was shining brightly at our table, we wanted to move to another spot. However, the waitress brusquely informed us that the tables in the middle were not to be occupied because she needed space for people to pass through. The content was completely understandable—but the tone was unfriendly and inappropriate. When we went to order, two people had already chosen something, while the other two wanted to take their time. The two wanted to order, but the waitress refused in a very sharp tone: We all had to order together. When I asked her why she was so rude, she got loud. We then got up and left. That was the first time in my life that I left a restaurant because the service was so abysmal. This isn't about the rules—whether you have to order together or aren't allowed to use certain tables, that's fine—but solely about the way you speak to guests. I've never experienced such rude behavior. Therefore, quite clearly: 1 star and no recommendation. Important: We didn't eat anything. This rating refers solely to the service.

The vegetarian schnitzel and fries were delicious. The service was excellent, very fast, extremely attentive, and friendly.

We've been here several times! Great food and super friendly service, who, judging by the friendly conversation, seems to have been working there for a long time. The knuckle of pork was very good with plenty of meat! The chicken breast was super tasty, and the homemade fries were a dream. The price was absolutely reasonable, too. We'll definitely be back here on our next visit to Rüdesheim 🥘🍟

This is the best restaurant of our last trip. The pork knuckle tasted the best I've ever had, and the staff is very friendly. Highly recommended.

Disappointed after the good reviews here. The schnitzel was tough and salty, the sauce more so. The pork medallions were better, but had the same sauce. The waiters were fine, but funny about serving tap water, preferring us to have more bottles of spring water. Also, the restaurant only takes cash which we hadn’t realised when ordering.

Excellent all around with wonderful dry Riesling!

Very friendly service. The seating is really nice. The food is delicious, but there could be a bit more on the plate. The prices are absolutely reasonable. I can definitely recommend this restaurant.

A single disappointment The food was a disgrace. Cordon Bleu from the freezer, pure tourist food, but waited over an hour for the food. Service unfriendly, arrogant.

Nice to sit outside Attention, cash payment only possible!!

We chose this restaurant because of the good Google reviews. The service was immediately noticeably unsympathetic. You didn't feel welcome as a guest but rather served carelessly and boredly. The menu was clear and offers a good selection of dishes. As a starter we chose asparagus soup and a side salad. The soup was good, the salad was bland and tasteless. For the main course we chose the sauerbraten and the schnitzel with mushroom sauce. In general the taste of the dishes was okay. There was a lack of salt, freshness and taste everywhere. Unfortunately, the sauces were very reminiscent of packet sauces. The taste of the dishes was reminiscent of retirement home meals. We cannot recommend the restaurant at all.

CASH ONLY. I consider this to be part of the service, hence the lower rating.

Tourist trap, food is definitely not homemade and quite expensive

Wonderful German food and great people. But they only accept cash!! Great beers and local wines

We were there for dinner with a group of 12 people, we were all thrilled by the delicious food, you should just inform us in advance that you can ONLY pay in CASH, a note was shown to us at the end, very small in the menu at the top left.

Absolute recommendation! Nice atmosphere and, above all, delicious food (pork medallions!!!).

We were looked after very attentively and warmly by the waitress Natascha. The atmosphere invites you to linger, we really enjoyed sitting there and enjoying ourselves after a busy day in and around Rüdesheim. Thank you, Natascha

Racist waiter! I just left this place, where the old woman (with a lot of make up on her face) made a super racist comment to another group of people. She said “scheisse Tuerkisch” or something like that, when she was inside, to the other waiters, she smiled like making fun. Then I saw her going to the Turkish customers, smiling at their faces. This was awful to witness. She was very rude to us as well, when we went inside the restaurant to pay. She shouted at us like can I help you! Not kindly at all. I regret that I just walked and didn’t say anything to her. I should have been saying what she said when she was serving to the Turkish customers, smiling. I hope the owner of the restaurant sees this and takes action against, in case you want to contact me, me and my husband could witness what we have seen.

Drinks service was top and quick. We had to wait over an hour for the main courses, the food was mediocre at best. I wouldn't recommend it, it's more of a tourist trap.

We had reserved for 8 people on Sunday and could choose between inside and outside. We found space outside. There was delicious homemade lemonade for me and Wiener Schnitzel. A little something green would have been nice. Portion was plentiful and very tasty. I would like to highlight the excellent fries and the attentive service. Not barrier-free! Card payment not possible. Toilets in the basement ok.

Nice restaurant with a cozy courtyard near the cable car. Good home cooking with reasonable prices. Our waitress Natascha was very nice and accommodating. The food was very tasty.

The friendly Natascha served us very tasty food. Everything was great. We'll be back.

We were very satisfied with the food. The schnitzel was crispy, juicy and tender.

Good home cooking, the food tasted good, the staff is very nice, attentive and accommodating. We can definitely recommend this restaurant.

The food was very tasty and the service was very nice.

If you find yourself near Rudesheim, you must eat here! We had the Saur Braten, which was the most tender beef I've ever eaten. We are STILL on the hunt for a Spatlese and an Apfel Strudel that comes close to theirs! The service was fantastic, too! Truly impressed, all the way around. And the city is so quaint and beautiful to wander around while you work off the strudel.

A nice and very well located restaurant. The drinks and the dishes were tasty. There is also a selection for children. The staff is very friendly.

Waited an abnormally long time, abnormally bad food. Everything (hock, potato dumplings, spaetzle, schnitzel, etc.) tastes like it's frozen goods, poor finished products. The only good thing was the wheat and ambience.

Portion could be a little larger

Were there for dinner. The ambience and service were very good. The restaurant both inside and in the courtyard was very clean. I had tagliatelle with tiger prawns and aioli sauce, the prawns were super juicy, but the olive oil tasted too strong for me, which dominated the whole meal.

Had a very good meal there. The knuckle is particularly recommended. Crispy baked and very good wine sauerkraut and dumplings. The service was very quick and courteous. Price/performance top. It is advisable to make a reservation on weekends. The seats on the beautiful outdoor terrace are very popular.

I don't normally rate restaurants... We were in the restaurant on Saturday, April 12th, 2025 with a registered group of around 30 people. This has never happened to me/us. First we were escorted to our shared tables. Picking up the drinks went fairly quickly. After the drinks arrived, it took almost two hours until we finally got our menus. Of course not in the ordered order - but completely randomly. You've never seen anything like this before... The quantities of French fries were completely random (some had 80% of the plate filled, others only had a manageable number of fries). Most portions were so heavily fried that the fries shattered and flew around on the plate when they came into contact with a fork. The schnitzels were "dead fried" and had nothing like a schnitzel, more like a fried cleaning rag. When asked about it, the waitress just commented rudely. This was hard to beat in terms of unfriendliness. - Service: - absolutely bad - not recommended... - Food quality: subpar - not recommended - Recommend the place: never go there again If you could rate the restaurant/restaurant with "negative stars" -1* to -6* -- I would give it -10*! Avoid the place at all costs, don't go there! Not worth it... ... Only cash payment possible and initially only a receipt pad is written down by hand. You then have to wait a very long time for a cash register receipt until it is actually handed over... "very strange"!

We ate very, very tasty food. Fresh asparagus, whether with meat or fish, is highly recommended. Very nice service. Children are also very welcome. Thank you for the nice evening.

16€ for a burger with frozen pattie from Blockhouse (Angus) was an absolute disgrace. Waited 1 hour for a burger to be ready

ALL was GREAT & NATASHA is a fabulous wait staff ! TY

Were there for lunch. Were received very friendly. Great service team. Very tasty food!

Food was really good and the service was warm and friendly. A good place, thank you

Very good price/performance ratio. Service was nice and food was delicious.

Unfortunately my knuckle was quite dry and I asked for some sauce. Don't be a problem. It was then later on the bill with €3.50. We're talking about 100ml of gravy. That's just cheeky. The grill plate is also completely overpriced. Waiter nice. The notices about "no card payment" are so incredibly inconspicuous that you look stupid when you have to pay the bill for 4 cash. I won't go there anymore.

Excelent Burger and nice portion. With a glass of Aperol spritzer. Recommend this place. I saw a lot of other dishes and they looked amazing. Have a good one

The service was very good, I liked that every service person wore the same thing. Despite it being busy, the food came quickly and was easy and tasty. We also really liked the beer garden, which was decorated with great attention to detail.

We always enjoy coming back. I had pork medallions in Assbach pepper sauce and croquettes, as well as a fresh salad. With my meal I drank a semi-dry Riesling from Weingut Siegfried. The food was very tasty and filling. The waitress NATASCHA was very nice.

Venison goulash (€19.60) from the “Stadt Frankfurt” restaurant in Rüdesheim am Rhein. Delicious food, fast down-to-earth service. All at a fair price.

Outside wow, inside... What tourists with patience and tolerance

Long wait for food of over 1 hour. Other people served quicker. Then the order was made incorrectly. Even at other tables. You were just put off by the staff. There would be a lot going on. There wasn't much going on. Bad restaurant.

Eating at this restaurant was a fantastic experience. The food was excellent, especially the homemade dishes and the desserts. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, which made the visit very pleasant. The stylish and cozy ambience created a relaxed atmosphere. A visit is absolutely recommended!

The waiter was not nice, but the food was good, and the atmosphere very festive and beautiful, and we were satisfied in general.

I can't understand all the positive reviews. There were four of us and we were all dissatisfied. Spaghetti Bolognese was simple pasta with a small spoonful of sauce, you couldn't taste any of the parmesan described. Schnitzel with Asbach pepper sauce was almost only pepper sauce, you didn't taste any of the Asbach, there was only a handful of fries on the plate. The goose leg for €26 without salad was so dry that you could hardly chew it. The two dumplings that came with it were the size of a golf ball. We were just disappointed because we expected more from the positive reviews, but for us it was more of a tourist rip-off level, for us there is no reason to come back or make a recommendation...

Very nice restaurant with good food and very dedicated staff.

We were there today with the practice team for the Christmas party, very cozy, super friendly service, the food was very tasteful and the price-performance ratio was great. I can only recommend it

Very good restaurant, with delicious food (kudos again to the chef) and very friendly staff. Despite all the hectic pace, always attentive and lovable (here again especially the lady and the waiter with shell bracelets).. The heated outdoor terrace is very nicely decorated. We'd love to come back.

Overall above average but had better in Cologne. Beef was well prepared and the dumplings good. Chicken sandwich nice and fries very nice. Hot inside but very cute decorations. Service was slow and never got my salad. Great apple strudel

I can only warn against this, the lovely ambience is attractive here, but the waiters were completely disrespectful, the food would have been better in any kebab shop, but you would have paid significantly less. Half of our order was forgotten and we didn't get cutlery either. People also act as if it was their own fault.

We had 5 drinks and 1 tapas plate, overall 39euro, fair amount price/quality, went fast.. in and ouy in 30dish mins. Fluent in English. Biggest drawback is that we had to pay cash, no cards accepted.

Very tasty food, you can sit comfortably both inside and outside and on colder days the terrace is heated. The venison goulash was a dream and the roast pork was also very tasty. Our waitress took great care of us and was very friendly. Ask for Natascha and you will receive warm hospitality. Highly recommended, as there is also a public parking lot 4 minutes walk from the restaurant. *Tip the Rüdesheimer coffee as dessert. You get a very nice show😇👍👍

Really very good food highly recommended. Tasty food and friendly staff.

Dog friendly place with indoor and outdoor seatings. Kaffee is a must try if u love brandy n caffeine w a drop of sugar n creme. Pork knuckle is crispy with tender meat however it is a tad salty n we can smell the porky smell which isnt too spectacular. Salads refreshing no doubt and schnitzels good! Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.

Food was medium Rhenish Sauerbraten super tender but red cabbage not very seasoned. At the entrance there is a tiny card with thumbtacks attached to the menu sign at the top right, with a crossed-out card as a motif - no one can see that! No wonder the waitress got angry when we complained about it. Probably every second person does that. It happens that you can't pay with a card in a long-established restaurant in the middle of this tourist town.

The reception was warm and the staff was very nice. The orders arrived quickly and the food was also very tasty. We recommend it without a doubt and we will definitely come back.

Pleasant, cozy, delicious. What more could you want? 😉

Great restaurant with super delicious food! I had the schnitzel with Asbach pepper sauce and croquettes. Plus a side salad. I highly recommend it. Price-performance ratio is still right here!!

Super friendly service! The food is freshly prepared and is very tasty! ONLY RECOMMEND!!!

A store that is definitely a good fit (also) for large travel groups. You can find a suitable atmosphere and the staff is always on the move. Unfortunately we weren't served, so I can't say much about the food - it certainly looked very tasty from a distance. Quae volumus, credimus libenter. Day of visit: July 13, 24 in the afternoon.

The restaurant offers an all-round perfect experience. The service was incredibly friendly and attentive, always with a smile. The three of us ate and we were all thrilled – the food was freshly prepared and super tasty! What was particularly great was the cozy terrace, where you immediately feel welcome. A big thank you to the team – we will definitely be back!

Not as good as the review shows, we didn't order knuckle but other dishes and that wasn't as special as what you can prepare at home. The waiting time was long and I got cold food :(

Very good knuckle of pork, highly recommend.

Good overall. Recommended. Be forewarned…they only take cash.

In the café-restaurant “Stadt Frankfurt” you can experience a pleasant atmosphere and a friendly atmosphere. Despite the fact that it was very well attended, there was neither crowd nor disturbing background noise. The food was served in a reasonable time.

Very tasty and the service was courteous. We sat on the heated terrace with our dog and felt comfortable. We'd love to come back.

Food and drinks were great! The service staff deserve a 5, but the service category gets a star deducted because we were only allowed to pay in CASH or via Paypal. There was no evidence of this anywhere and the waiters probably have to explain this several times a day. Nobody really understood why you couldn't just pay with a card. But that's complaining at a high level - otherwise everything was great!
