Restaurant im Literaturhaus in Nürnberg

Extensive menu, delicious food and excellent service. There are also books to browse through, a great atmosphere for book lovers.

Everything is right here! A very nice location, incredibly friendly staff (Zissis Karamperis served us) and the best thing: the option to eat/breakfast gluten-free. Children are also welcome.

Unfortunately, like everything in the city center of Nuremberg, it has become far too expensive

Lovely place for a late breakfast. Great service, very good food. Interesting decor, book store or library combined with the restaurant.

Service is good, the diet is also pretty normal, but I didn't like coffee that much, it was quite robust, it seemed to me. The prices for coffee and cake are the same as they are in the city center. Barrier-free.

Simple but delicious food. I came here several times, and my favorite dish is traut fish with almond and potatoes. The place is also cozy.

Am Sonntag habe ich mit meiner Familie und mit Freunden meinen Geburtstag mit einem Brunch im Literaturcafe gefeiert und alle waren rundum begeistert. Die Auswahl reichte von Müsli über Käse, Schinken, Lachs, Forelle bis zu Hühnchensalat und Shrimpscocktail, für jeden war etwas dabei. Kaffee, Saft und ein Glas Sekt waren im Preis inbegriffen. Eierspeisen wurden frisch zubereitet und an den Tisch gebracht. Und ab 13 Uhr gab es noch Steinpilzsuppe und drei warme Gerichte (Maishähnchen, Fisch und Gemüselasagne, alles sehr lecker. Die junge Dame, die an unserem Tisch bedient hat, war äußerst freundlich und aufmerksam und immer darauf bedacht, alle Wünsche zu erfüllen. Großes Lob!

The apple and cinnamon cake was very tasty. Our children ate two pieces of a strawberry cream cake which they really enjoyed. All in all, we always enjoy coming here.

I'M VERY LOOKING FORWARD TO VISIT YOU WHEN I COME TO MARK LORENZ'S CONCERT. THE LAST VISIT TO YOU WAS IN 2019 AND THE CONDITION HAD ME RIGHT AWAY ON 10/22. RECOGNIZED AGAIN. And today I was there again.

Why the hell did I have to wait 45 min to pay!??! Food was ok but nothing special and the atmosphere is weird if you're not someone over 50 whose day drinking. There are way better cafés and restaurants in Nuremberg, don't waste your time and money here

Very nice Lokas for breakfast and a café drink. Great ambience and very good service. Also suitable for vegetarians.

Attentive and nice service! The trout in almond butter was very tasty 👌🏼 Cheesecake too!

Very tasty homemade cakes and nice service. Atmosphere like a somewhat outdated literary café. There are enough books to read while having coffee.

Great food freshly cooked, excellent atmosphere, highly recommend 👌

Sehr kleine Portionen. Eingeschränkte Auswahl. Top Lage. Gute Sauberkeit. Nette Bedienung. (Überraschend 1. Platz in TripAdvisor)

Since I am a big coffee fan, I unfortunately have to say that I am disappointed with the coffee. When I go to a coffee shop for breakfast I expect something other than vending machine coffee. Cappuccino (over €5) belongs differently. Now for the positive: Service was very nice. Nice atmosphere and location is great too!

The Literaturhaus is always worth a visit. From great service to good, varied food, everything is just right here. The price performance is also very good. Employees as well as the boss put in a lot of effort, something you don't see very often anymore.

Very pleasant atmosphere, although a bit noisy despite there being fewer tables. The service was quick and friendly. Only the hot chocolates and cake weren't to our liking. There was very little sweetness. Certainly a pleasant place for someone who likes something less sweet.

Very tasty food and extremely friendly staff. Always my pleasure

Food was good. Main skewers came before the starter. The payment process has historically been lengthy and complicated

I was able to reaffirm my positive belief that the Literaturhaus is the best meeting place in Nuremberg. The friendliness and service are overwhelming. The motivation and willingness to serve cannot be found in any other restaurant in Nuremberg like the Literaturhaus. The prices may be sporty, but the quality and quantity are outstanding, especially the crème brûlée! If you're not into "stinginess is cool" but expect high-quality hospitality for your money, you can't avoid the Literaturhaus in Nuremberg.

Great service - delicious cakes - nice atmosphere - good coffee - what more could you want 👌

Beautiful premises, excellent service, excellent choice of food

3 stars because of the nice, friendly service. The cold buffet was good, but unfortunately the warm wasn't at all.

Went here for breakfast. Quite an unusual looking cafe where they have people come in and do talks I believe. There was a good choice of breakfasts and the staff were friendly. Would recommend

Nice ambience and freshly cooked food. Price performance fits

Very busy, a bit too loud for me, huge selection of food and drinks, staff is friendly, tidy and clean

An enchanting gem in the old town where you can simply feel good. Highly recommended 👍🏻☺

The place where to go to talk, bring your book, or media colleagues, after work drink and conversations without being disturbed by loudness. Absolutely experienced staff, food is very reasonably priced, good portion and above all a classic old era charm, for people who do not like fulff. You have to be a bit mature to be able to appreciate the uniqueness of this place. 💛🤎

Breakfast here was not freshly made and generally not good tasting. It consisted of old bread and bland store-bought dips served in little bowls. The fried vegetables were wet and mushy. The coffee is okay-ish, but comes out of an all in one machine. Would not come here again. Staff was friendly though.

I tried the day menu which was minced meat inside cabbage leaves in a diced bacon-onion sauce (which to me was salty) and a small dessert ( not too sweet). The environment is nice and the staff was welcoming and attentive. In warmer weather outdoor seating area would be a nice option as it’s located in a wide, beautiful street.

Nice café-restaurant without a plush grandma atmosphere. The staff is unobtrusive, friendly and helpful. Gladly again.

The coffee is good and there is also a good selection of cakes. The establishment is particularly busy on weekends. However, the service seemed stressed and therefore not particularly friendly. For the sake of the quality of the offer, it is recommended, but with deductions when dealing with customers.

September 23rd, 2024: the lamb shank and the stuffed peppers were an absolute dream. Rounded off with a great dessert, it's once again an absolute highlight. Pay attention to the weekly menu!!! Just crazy!!

I didn't order anything, but my friend didn't like her dish at all. Nevertheless, we had a nice conversation with the waitress. When a guest suddenly disappeared after ordering, we even received his now unnecessary salad. It's always full and nice to sit there.

First of all: the food was delicious and it was very nice to sit outside. Unfortunately, the new waitress is inexperienced, cheeky and afraid of wasps. Unfortunately, that was an unfavorable combination that had a negative impact on the relaxed breakfast.

You can have a delicious breakfast here.

Very cozy. You can eat very well here and there are vegetarian/vegan dishes! The staff is very nice, you feel comfortable.

“Where cooking and linguistic art come together” is welcomed on the food and drink “catalogue”. We only had breakfast here (sailor-style, which was easily enough for two people), but we almost lost ourselves when we saw the large selection: the kidneys on the menu were exceptional, but also many wines and beers. The good Mövenpick ice cream (many varieties). We found it simply perfect here. Atmosphere with open doors to the olive tree-lined terrace, the "old-fashioned" but by no means shabby) was retained (staircase railing, counter, cloakroom, seating), tables between books, beautiful photos, brisk, very friendly service lady, overall the staff seems to be happy to identify with the house. And all of this at comparatively affordable prices.

Always nice and good! Friendly people in the service, very good food, from savory to cake. Breakfast is also recommended.

Taste ok. But unfortunately small portions that aren't really filling. Therefore only 3 stars out of 5.

Very good recommendation for breakfast. Large selection of the best quality. The service was very nice and attentive. Highly recommended!

Very friendly service. We were served courteously and quickly by Alexandros. The food was delicious and the drinks were perfectly chilled.

Too pricey! Especially when your Greek waiter is insisting on a huge expensive bottle of mineral water, when it was already clear that I ordered a small one.

Very good cakes and tarts and always a gluten-free variety

Abbiamo preso solo un cocktail ma il locale era sporco e molto dimesso. Le bevande abbastanza buone, nonostante la scelta scarsa, e il servizio gentile, la spesa non eccessiva per un locale del centro. Ma con un nome del genere mi aspettavo più stile

Edit July 30, 2024: I won't change anything about the stars. But after two years I was there again and I have to say I was very disappointed. The breakfast wasn't nearly as tasty as it was two years ago. The fruit salad didn't taste good at all and you're charged extra for a bit of oat milk without any special announcement. And that in today's world, when you can get oat milk for the same price as cow's milk and you should avoid the latter. The cheese selection wasn't that unusual either. It's a shame, given the price-performance ratio I wouldn't have breakfast here again. I was in Nuremberg for a weekend. Even though I hadn't made a reservation for Saturday morning, I was offered a table that was reserved for later, I could tell that I would be ready by then.😃 The service was very friendly and accommodating. My requests for changes were completely fulfilled. I was really excited about my cheese 🧀breakfast. I have never experienced such an extraordinary, diverse, great selection of cheese in a restaurant💕😊. An all-round successful start to the day at a great price-performance ratio 🌞

Very nice!! Friendly straff, good food and very clean toilets! 5/5 🤩👌🏻

We were there recently and had a little something to eat. We come here every time we go into town in the morning. But we also had a delicious and excellent breakfast here with everything we needed. We have also been here several times at lunchtime and have had excellent meals. My daughters got a wonderful salad with everything your heart could desire, delicious with turkey strips, and I had fish that was tender and you could tell it was fresh, which is not a given in Bavaria, and I was very happy with it. I also like the whole ambience inside. It's also great outside, because it's located in the heart of Nuremberg on a side street, and if you sit outside you can have a wonderful meal and look at the street with its colorful hustle and bustle. The prices are still relatively moderate for the city center and that's why we will now always make this our goal when we go back to the city because we like the entire all-round package best. Sorry about the break-in, I just read it. I hope we can catch the thieves. Don't lose heart, we will remain loyal as customers.

The food is delicious, the service is very friendly, well frequented

We ate there yesterday as part of a day trip to Nuremberg. Everything was actually okay so far, the food came relatively quickly as did the drinks, but I found it stressful at the beginning because we couldn't order à la carte, but had already pre-ordered in the morning. I found it stressful in the restaurant itself because there were several waiters running around the whole time and the drinks and meals were placed on the table in a somewhat stressed manner (at least in my opinion). My salad plate was okay, but it didn't blow me away personally. You can't go wrong with water or coffee. But when we wanted to leave the restaurant, it suddenly turned out that my salad plate had apparently not been paid for, even though I had paid in cash and tipped €0.40, I got €25.50 instead of €25.10 paid which is unfortunately not a small amount of money for me at the moment. I was a bit pissed off then. We tried to clarify this with the staff, but unfortunately they only believed us in quotation marks. Just take a quick look, for example in the invoices or something similar, in order to really be able to confirm and clarify it satisfactorily, for whatever reason. I know these are difficult times for the restaurant industry in general at the moment, but something like this simply can't happen in a restaurant! Conclusion: Food is okay so far, but everything else is chaotic for me, so unfortunately I can't recommend it.

Enjoyable breakfast with good coffee. Casual atmosphere. Nice.

an incredibly nice restaurant with really courteous and extremely friendly staff, reading corners and incredibly delicious food. We went there twice in one day because it was so good😊

The best was the treatment received by the blonde waitress, super friendly and professional, very affectionate with our son. We ate wonderfully, everything was great.

Delicious cake and attentive service

The food was ok, not very varied, and not so many gluten-free foods as they say. It doesn't really look like a restaurant to me, but rather a cafe. The price is a bit high for what they offer... The staff is nice

Super good service, very attentive and friendly. The location is excellent to start with breakfast before starting the tour. Very delicious food

Being one of the first people in, the waiter didn't even let us (group of 3) sit where we wanted, there was a baby cockroach in the bathroom and the prices were pretty high. Would not recommend if you are a traveler passing though. The waiter towards the end of our stay took out his phone and nabbed a picture of me thinking he was sneaky.

What a cracking place. First real sunshine we've had for a while helped, but lovely outside dining with relaxed surroundings. Extensive menu with good choice of drinks. Waitresses very helpful and courteous. Food was top notch. Fresh and good size. Desesrts worth keeping room for too. Definately worth a visit. Our waitress, leni was especially helpful 😃l

Long wait to order coffee and beer, over 20 minutes

A wonderful place for both Nuremberg residents and tourists. A relaxed atmosphere. A wide selection of delicious food and drinks. A big compliment to the friendly and courteous service staff. I will gladly come again. And feel free to spread the word.

We were there on the Friday before Pentecost and it was raining. We put our umbrella under our bench and were quickly reprimanded by a female waitress as to where the umbrella should be, otherwise she would fall over it while serving. We just weren't served, neither by her nor by the other staff. People preferred to stand at the counter for a nice chat with each other. After I asked at the counter if we could be served, someone sat down next to us. We had to wait just as long to pay and had to speak to 3 waitresses. Service looks different. We were very disappointed!

Sonntagsbrunch mit großem Buffet und einigen warmen Speisen auf Bestellung aus der Küche. Freundliches Personal, Getränke leider oft nur nach mehrfacher Nachfrage. Gute Qualität zu fairen Preisen. Sowieso mein Standardsoftware in Nürnberg, ab und zu mal zum Brunch.

Always delicious. We also have no problem getting gluten-free rolls every time without prior notice.

Nice café-restaurant with a beautiful outdoor garden. Lemonade and cake perfect. Service good

The restaurant is at the highest level, special thanks to the chef - always delicious!!!

Overall, very Mediocre experience. Wasn't exactly what we were expecting when we found this place. The idea we had was more of a cafe, but it definitely is a restaurant not cafe. The prices were extremely high, so it was very expensive. The service however was great.

The food was super dry, it was a waste of money! Also found the waiters quite unfriendly. I really can't recommend it!

Later and bad. They have forgotten us

Good selection of vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free dishes. Food is impeccable, prices a bit high, but okay. Service was very good and the ambience too. Always happy for breakfast.

Nice coffee in Nuremberg's old town. Homemade cakes. Service is also quite good.

This restaurant has a special atmosphere in the middle of the city. The staff is extremely friendly and the food is very varied. Always my pleasure!!

Unfassbar gut! Egal wann man kommt! Durchgehende Küche! Frühstück bis 15 Uhr! Man bekommt aber auch um 9 Uhr schon das Tagesgericht wenn man möchte, oder Spätnachmittags … oder am Abend… oder … Das Servicepersonal ist unschlagbar freundlich… also wir sind so etwas von geflasht! Das hatten wir noch nie! Super Ambiente, super Küche, super Personal… alles stimmig! Und das nächste Mal in Nürnberg: nur dort Essen und Trinken!

Nice café/restaurant with very friendly and attentive service...! We really enjoyed our stay and will be happy to come back. Keep it up!!

First experience was with the gf and her crew. Second experience was on my own Coffee ☕️ ☕️ is hot 🔥 and strong enough Food was delicious Service warm and friendly I'm going to be a repeat offender.

Very friendly staff 👍 and services. Gladly again. Super tasty food

Restaurant with piano and books, ideal for relaxing while reading a book or having breakfast with friends. Very varied and tasty menu, several gluten-free and lactose-free options

Makes super tasty tarte flambée.

Food and drink ok. Unfortunately, once again not satisfied with the service: very arrogant staff without much knowledge of customer friendliness and service technology. Food was served five minutes before the drink was served. A lot of manpower, which works inefficiently. A culture of welcome looks different.

Kultivierter Ort, leckere Getränke. Oase der Ruhe. Preise völlig ok für Nürnberg. Ich mag hier chillen. Meine Freinde auch.

The restaurant is one of our favorite places. The food is tasty, the staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is also very appealing. Yesterday we had Zurich Geschnetzeltes, which my husband really enjoyed. Unfortunately, my French onion soup wasn't a success... After waiting 45 minutes for the soup, I thought it would be perfect... Unfortunately, I had to send it back... Happened to me for the first time in the restaurant... Also the cooking can have a bad day...

As always, a nice place, either for a good meal, to meet friends or to party.

Amazing food. Super friendly staff. Nice relaxing atmosphere.

Possibly any events here are the actual highlight seen, but the food is not overshadowed. There are daily specials and small portions, including dessert. It looks good and tastes great. The staff is competent, professional and very friendly. The selection of dishes is very extensive and, in addition to numerous desserts, there are also homemade cakes and tarts. I can unreservedly recommend the restaurant

The service was great! Unfortunately there are only baked rolls and the rye rolls are very small and hard

Very nice restaurant with a nice breakfast buffet and very friendly staff

Unfortunately I can't write anything about the food because I only visited here for two cappuccinos, but the service is super accommodating and the ambience is really cool with the discreetly clad walls instead of complete interior cladding and suspended ceilings

We spent a birthday in a small group at the Literaturhaus with an excellent breakfast. We were given very good advice given the number of guests! The breakfast was of very high quality and varied. The service was extremely good and we were treated very courteously according to the occasion. Any time!!!

excellent cafe with pleasant crowd. Staff courteous.

We were looking forward to the breakfast selection in advance, fresh bread in the bread basket, a no go for us were the baked rolls 3 choice, the prices are no longer justified.

Very good service and totally comfortable 👍👍👍 always happy

A very nice place to stay, eat something to drink and feel good 👍👍👍eat great, everything was great

Cozy, good cappuccino, unfortunately you have to pay 80ct more for milk alternatives

Large selection of dishes, including vegan/vegetarian, friendly service

Our meeting there with friends was very pleasant. Food excellent, wine and coffee very good. Ambiance feels good, service friendly.

This was the second time we've eaten there. The 1st time everything was fine, service and food. This time we got a table straight away, even though it was full. Unfortunately the waiter had little idea about the dishes. In Nuremberg, known for its real Nuremberg bratwursts, serving boiled bratwursts is an absolute no-go! The potato salad was good as well as a vegetarian dish. The cakes weren't anything special.

We just got 1 place. Very busy. We can understand it in hindsight, cake was very tasty😋

Nice atmosphere, delicious food and great service

Very nice cafe. One point deducted because there is no filter coffee, only coffee with disgusting crema.

Very nice stylish restautant/bar. We were only there for a glass of wine, but want to go there for dinner soon. There is a very extensive menu with a very large breakfast selection (until 3:00 p.m.).
