Restaurant Grabenschenke in Bernkastel-Kues

The service is extremely friendly and attentive, the dining room is cozy with atmospheric seasonal decorations. Very nice boss who prepares a great rump steak with various side dishes. Good selection of wines.

We stopped by during a trip on November 1st. The service is very friendly and accommodating, he seated us straight away at a table and brought us the menu. This is very clear, which is by no means a bad thing! I had tomato soup as a starter. This was delicious and well crafted. The main course was the Ziegelüberschnitzel, which was also well made and tasted really good. The price-performance ratio was good. I ordered a starter, main course and 2 drinks. We would love to come back when we go to Bernkastel Kues again.

Very friendly, quick and attentive.

It's very nice to sit there and our food was excellent The service was very quick and very, very nice

Very nice, delicious food and good wine...what more could you want?

We were in Bernkastel-Kues again at the weekend and of course we had to go to the Grabenschenke again. :) Delicious food at fair prices and friendly service! Always happy when we are there! :)

A bit away from the tourist flow. But still easily accessible. Food was ok and cheap.

Today we hiked past the Grabenschenke and enjoyed a delicious cold drink there before we continued. Super committed team and our conversation with the boss was also very nice. Always happy 🤷‍♂️👌👌

A nice restaurant with delicious schnitzels😋

Very nice staff. schnitzel fresh from the pan. Recommended.

Very nice service that unfortunately did not respond to a change request to exchange fries for fried potatoes. My baked rosti are simple but delicious. Price performance okay.

We also had to gain experience. At the next table, pasta should be swapped for fried potatoes at the customer's request. This was rejected because it didn't taste good. For my schnitzel, the customer also wanted to swap fries for fried potatoes, possibly with an additional charge. It's not possible, the cook spends 12 hours in the kitchen and doesn't have time for that. If everyone wants a change like that. We say we were there at 12 p.m. and there were 6 guests there, 2 of whom had already had their food. Thank you never again, there are enough alternatives.

The service was very nice and courteous and always attentive. I ate the Bernkastler cheese pan and it was very tasty!!! Highly recommended. The ambience is also very appealing. A great family business. We'd love to come back.

Here the “young” man was extremely unfriendly. Both we and other guests were attacked because of our 2kg dogs each (Here you should take an example from the competition in a tourist area) We needed another chair at our table, and that also posed a real problem. All in all, it's not nice and comfortable here either... ...hunger drove us in.... But I wouldn't recommend this

We ate very tasty potato soup and homemade snitzel with tasty parsley potatoes. My wife had trout, also very tasty. Friendly and fast service in a real living room interior. Top

Super great beer garden, absolutely fair prices and very friendly innkeepers. It's a perfect fit, we'll always be happy to come back! 💪🏻

Very tasty food and great service

Nice terrace along a small alley. The service was nice and courteous. Unfortunately, my “Jägerschnitzel” consisted exclusively of convenience products. From the schnitzel to the sauce, the mushrooms from the jar, to the fries. On the one hand, this preparation is a quick and inexpensive way to meet the influx of tourists. On the other hand, this should also be reflected in the pricing of the dishes. Here there was a poor relationship between the cost of goods and the actual selling price.

Whenever you go to Bernkastel-Kues, the Grabenschenke is always the first port of call. From friendly staff to a large selection of food and drinks, at fair prices, to a pleasant feel-good atmosphere, nothing is left to be desired. An absolute recommendation! We are already looking forward to the next visit and say “Thank you for everything!”

Friendliest waiter ever. With his advice I found my regional wine. The food is rich and super tasty, highly recommended.

Very good food and friendly service

Very good price-performance ratio. We enjoyed it very much. Very nice service!!

Nice place good food for a good price

Rustic restaurant with lots of simple dishes, super-friendly service, food absolutely delicious!

On an averagely busy day, we just wanted to sit on the beautifully designed terrace for a few drinks. The very polite waiter told us that it might take a while since his boss would be coming in about 30 minutes and he was alone. So far so good, no one can do more than work, so we sat down first. It has to be said that at this point it had been raining for about 20 minutes and the terrace was therefore not too full. To our surprise, a young waitress came very quickly and we ordered our drinks, saying that we didn't want to order any food yet. After a few minutes the boss himself came and told us that he would not serve us on the terrace because the cobblestones had become too “slippery” due to the rain and therefore he would not serve us. I found this to be very inappropriate, since 1.) even older people with walking aids walked past us, the floor was anything but slippery and 2.) the boss could have simply brought the drinks with him on the way to us and all would have been happy. It's a shame that we weren't offered an alternative at this point other than waiting on the terrace for 30 minutes without drinks until the floor was dry again. Despite the beautiful and covered terrace, we will probably rely on the other restaurateurs for the time being.

No visit to Bernkastel without a visit to the Grabenschenke! It's always a pleasure to come back there. The good food, the very friendly service, the loving furnishings inside and out. We feel comfortable, enjoy the good food and the individual service and are already looking forward to the next time. Thank you for the many wonderful hours.

The two of us ended our holiday here. Delicious schnitzel and nice friendly service.

Four of us ate here today. Great in terms of taste and price! The waiter was alone and still managed the place, respect for that! All in all highly recommended !

A little away from the main action, a highly recommended restaurant with down-to-earth cuisine at reasonable prices. And it tastes good. Reservations are not possible; during peak times you may have to wait a bit if you want to sit outside. It is worth it ..

Good food at reasonable prices + friendly service, highly recommended!

Very tasty food, even whole men will be full, we will definitely come back.

Very nice, service friendly, food went well.

It was great again. Very good home cooking. We didn't miss anything.

We've been there twice already. The steak was very good. Can definitely be recommended

Very correct waiter, the schnitzels and the grill plate are well made.

Food, wine and service was top!!!

Nice small atmospheric restaurant, with a limited menu but good food and good beer. Unfortunately you cannot pay by card

A great gastronomic event where no wish is left unfulfilled. Starting with great service and regional products! Freshly prepared dishes from local producers! Great price/performance ratio! Perfect family business! We look forward to a reunion! Keep it up!

Before ordering, we asked if we could get fried potatoes with the Holsteiner Schnitzel instead of fries, as is offered with other dishes. We were turned away with the reason "The kitchen doesn't accept reorders." Apparently they only have ready meals there and can't find the fried potatoes anywhere. So the store just missed out on two dinners and a bottle of wine. Roundabout €60 wasted.

Repeatedly great friendly attentive service. I'm already looking forward to the next time

Delicious food, the boss does everything herself. Funny employees. Few tables, but quaint

Ate outside. Food was good, except the schnitzel was way too drenched in oil and left a bit unpleasant feeling in the throat. Service was great, though slow due to only s few of waiters working. I would still recommend this place!

A very nice restaurant, super delicious food, I'll definitely come back again and again.

Very good food, like at mother's. Friendly and attentive service. Gladly again.

Very nice service and nice ambience. Food was also good and reasonably priced. Above all, the nice waiter was very hard-working and attentive and looked after the guests very well!

Spicy winemaker steak with herb butter and fries was absolutely top. The service was friendly, attentive and sociable. Overall, highly recommended restaurant.

Nice ambience, service was also nice and the food was unfortunately only mediocre but rather at the lower end of mediocre.

A great restaurant, everything is just right

Great service. Food very good. Can just be recommended.

We were in Bernkastel today and since the restaurant looked inviting from the outside, we entered. We had rump steak and schnitzel special with mushrooms and cheese gratinated. The portion size was perfectly fine and the meat was of good quality, especially the rump steak. The service was great, the young lady was friendly, attentive and always available. The affordable prices complete the overall impression! We were very satisfied 02/03/2024 RN

A rather small menu also guarantees fresh preparation. We enjoyed it. The service was very nice and accommodating. We would be happy to come back on our next stay.

Delicious food for a fair price. Definitely recommended...

Simple but tasty food. The menu is in German and English but the restaurateurs can explain a bit in French. They were so attentive and so kind about our daughters and ourselves ! Was a great evening in this family and cozy etablishement Thank you :)

Service und Essen sehr gut.Alle sehr freundlich

Gutbürgerliche Küche in gemütlicher Atmosphäre. Dazu toller Service...

Einheimische Küche. Preislich günstig aber die Qualität ist nicht billig! Immer wieder gern!

Waren zu viert dort, kleines tolles Restaurant, der Wirt ist gut drauf, verstehts mit den Gästen Spaß zu haben. Schnell geliefert und Schmackhaft 💪 Steak mit gebratenen Zwiebeln und Pommes 😋

Es war schwierig, die weibliche Bedienung war schon mega, aber 2 Tage später kam die männliche Antwort. Nicht desto trotz, mega Lokal, mega essen. Essen mit Freunden. Danke

Sehr nettes Lokal. Gutes Essen. Sehr freundliches Personal. Gutes Preis-Leistung. Kann ich nur empfehlen.

Sehr schönes Restaurant in der Innenstadt. Essen war sehr lecker. Zivile Preise und ein sehr netter und freundlicher Kellner runden das ganze ab. Klare Empfehlung. Kommen gerne wieder.

Typisch Duits eten, vriendelijk personeel.

Nette Bedienung,Essen sehr gut.Preis Leistungsverhältnis top.

Also ich kann hier einige Bewertungen nicht verstehen. Top Service top essen! Und der Preis war unschlagbar. Ganz besonders möchte ich die Bedienung loben, die mit viel Herz und alles zu unserer Zufriedenheit an den Tisch gebracht hat. Gerne wieder

Gut bürgerlich und mehr ;-) Wir kommen wieder

Etwas Abseits vom Altstadt Trubel, sehr schmackhaftes Essen mit tollem Service.

Sehr leckeres 😋 Essen zu guten Preisen. Sehr nette Bedienung ‼️‼️

Ook de kaart bekeken. Schnitzel of steak. Is dus eerder beperkt. Heb de holsteiner, schnitzel van varken(?), genomen. Was zeer goed, leuke prijs, zeer druk en toch een vlotte en vriendelijke bediening. Top. En ja, enkel cash. Maar staat aangegeven.

Leckers Essen gute Bedienung Preis ok könnte etwas länger die Küche öffnen als 20.00 Uhr.

Fantastisches Holsteiner Schnitzel gekommen. Der Service ist schnell und gut drauf 😄

Sehr unscheinbare, absolut Sauberes Restaurant mit sehr guter bürgerlichen Küche. Die Preise sind für diesen Touristenort günstig, das Essen war sehr lecker, kein Schnickschnack, gutes Handwerk !!! Die Angestellten sind sehr freundlich, sehr gerne wieder. Liebe Grüße und weiterhin gute Geschäfte.

Sehr leckeres Essen und freundliche Bedienung.

Schlichte Karte ohne Schnick-Schnack. Wir hatten Käsespätzle und Schupfnudeln, sehr gut. Bedienung sehr freundlich. Besser als andere Lokale mit großem Anspruch, der nicht gehalten wird.

Ein tolles kleines Restaurant mit super leckeren Essen, freundlichem Personal, und einem tollen Preis Leistungsverhältnis. Nur zu empfehlen. 10 Sterne. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Essen ist ok, Cordon blue ist einfach ein fertiges gefülltes Schnitzel mit oben drüber Käse. Andere Speisen sind halt einfach ok. Service Naja., die Bestellung wird falsch aufgenommen und wenn du danach reklamierst dass man was anders bestellr hat kannan zwar das richtig Gericht bekommen soll aber beide Gerichte bezahlen. Das geht gar nicht und ist einfach schlechter Service..

Es war alles okay, jedoch nichts besonderes.

War wirklich schön 😊 Traubensaftschorle hell sehr zu empfehlen

Gutes Essen und schnelle Bedienung.

Super lecker zum sehr guten Preis nette Bedingung top

Bekamen das Lokal empfohlen. Dir Bedienung ist sehr aufmerksam und freundlich gewesen. Die Speisen wurden zügig serviert und waren reichlich bemessen. Hier werden wir gerne wieder einkehren....
