Restaurant Stadtkrone in Monschau

Now that I'm being accused of slander and my post that I wrote around June has been blocked, I'm just posting the naked truth again and why, because I think it's cheeky that I'm being accused of slander when that's how I felt .... your 2.7 stars aren't because you're great, see it! Now I realize something, my battery was empty. The space outside right by the stream that runs through the town is a 10/10 for the great scenery, but the operators can't do anything about it. (That's the reason for the 2 star) Now to eat, as hungry as I was, I had to have a knuckle, my girlfriend had a schnitzel. Inside, the knuckle was cold and the crust was subpar, the schnitzel was more like Eismann brand, the fries were cold and tasted more frozen than freshly fried. Conclusion, make up your own mind, you can drink a beer well, if you want to eat something you should go to other places. Only cash payment is accepted

Nice restaurant in a central location of the tourist hotspot. Had a mustard schnitzel for just under 21 euros. Unfortunately, the side salad was kind of mini. 1 slice of tomato, 1 slice of cucumber, some lettuce and corn. Otherwise the schnitzel was fine.

Nice cafe-restaurant with a nice atmosphere and friendly, prompt service. Enjoy your meal. Would be even more attractive with card payment options.

Owner unfortunately absolutely intolerant and rude. I really feel sorry for anyone who didn't read the reviews of this place before visiting and ended up here without knowing.

The restaurant is ideally located on the market square in the old town of Monschau. It goes without saying that you can't block a table here for several hours with a glass of Cola. Unfortunately, not much was right during our visit. Drinks without ice, until the mayonnaise was added to the fries it took three attempts and a good 10 minutes... the fries weren't necessarily a hit either... it all took an extremely long time even though it was clear. I hope that these are just a few kinks, as the operators are probably new and generally likeable. It simply doesn't do the location justice, and so it's a bit of a shame. Cash-only payments will no longer be possible in 2024.

We were sent off because we just wanted to have a drink

Have been there many times and always had a good feeling. The service is really great and nice. See you next time

Had a very tasty meal there today. The dessert is particularly noteworthy here. The restaurant has a new owner and this is reflected in the quality of the food. Many thanks also to the nice service staff.

We were served very friendly. Beautifully located right in the most beautiful place in Monschau. Has been in new hands for four months 👍🏻

Cash only? Of course, if you see who is serving there. :)

Beautiful terrace in Incredibly beautiful city! Coffee delicious, apple strudel substandard and yet overpriced.

Unfriendly staff, We were sent away by a waiter because we didn't want to eat anything but just something to drink.

Service was a bit slow and not very proactive you have to call the waiter Did not have food Cash only (as everywhere in Monschau)

We were sent away the first time and said the kitchen would open at 5:30 p.m. Back promptly at 5:30 p.m., we were sent away again, no explanation given.

Der Servise sollte sich mal einer Schulung unterziehen..Über Hygiene bis zum Servieren. Das Ambiente am Markt war wohl das beste. Das Essen ehr nicht noch mal... Qalität ehr nicht empfehlenswert und die Preise obendrein komplett überteuert.Monschau ja;Stadtkrone nein.

Endless waiting for simple dishes while some tables are unoccupied. Dishes are served and eaten before the cutlery arrives. The food is ordinary, poorly prepared and served lukewarm. To avoid.

Niet doen!!!!! Nog nooit zo slecht gegeten. Steak was doorbakken, puree heel waterig. We durfden het dessert niet af te wachten. Het meest positieve dat ik kan melden is dat we lekker buiten zaten.

I ate a rump steak there with fries and salad. The quality was excellent and it was very tasty. The price-performance ratio was right and the service was super friendly.

Vi bestilte to forskellige wienerschnitzler fra deres menukort og 2 1/2 liter fadøl. Vi fik serveret lunkne øl. Selve wienerschnitzlen var 10 x 6 cm. En meget lille portion salat med icebergsalat, dåsemajs og små skiver agurk. Der var en enkelt meget tynd skive tomat. Kød og pommefritter var tydeligvis taget op af fryseren og i friturekoger. Alt smagte dog ok, men til prisen, så er dette en turistfælde man skal holde sig langt fra. Der er meget bedre spisesteder hos deres naboer.

Had a nice sit on the terrace. The apple strudel tasted good. We had to wait a long time before we were served. The biggest disadvantage is that you can only pay in cash. Which, by the way, applies to almost all of Monschau.

Dry salmon, pathetic salad, overpriced, staff is friendly😉

Bad service, the shandy tasted strange.

Looking at Monschau's market square, I assumed that a visit to the Stadtkrone must be just as great. I accepted the “nice” hint that, due to the staffing situation, service was only served outside. However, when the schnitzel in mustard cream sauce, fries and salad was brought out, I wanted to get up immediately. The finished schnitzel sank into a strange, light yellow mush. The whole thing was topped off with the exclusive cash payment; a rogue who thinks evil...

A new, young operator is very committed and will complement the historic ambience with his own ideas. My steak was good, and so was the trout. Just the right place to eat in the old town. Many thanks to the friendly team.

Tourist trickery at its finest! Juicy prices for terribly bad food. The dishes were, at best, from the subway's frozen food department; the lettuce was wilted and the glasses were dirty. Only the waiter tried very hard to save the whole thing.

We wanted to have a coffee in the restaurant and CAFÉ (!!), but when the gentleman came we were told you were only allowed to sit here if you also eat something. We politely declined and left. We sat for a while until someone came, the tables around us only had drinks, since you HAVE to eat something you apparently have to wait a long time for it...

Very nice staff, even though the group had been relocated without further ado, we were allowed to use the location... unlike other restaurants there

I ate salmon here that was undercooked with mousseline sauce that was not fresh, which made me sick afterwards. When paying, we were presented with two covers (brown and black) and asked which book we had ordered. When I pointed to the black cover, the restaurant employee said that only cash payment was possible. What is that?

Absolutely avoid! Very ordinary food and very expensive for what it is. In addition, cash payment only 2.90 EUR for a glass of still water (probably tap water too!)… in short, not great

The environment is great, so the quality of the food seems to be secondary here. I had the mediocre tasting large currywurst and a day later was lying flat with fever, body aches and chills and vomited twice. Not a pleasant experience. Since my wife decided not to eat there and she was fine, I suspect a connection to my meal in this restaurant. There was more tea than ice in the iced tea, unfortunately not cold. We should have looked at the reviews first...

Small restaurant that could do more with because the location is very good. The food was okay, but not a culinary highlight. The service was attentive and friendly. The fact that you can only pay in cash didn't bother us.

The goulash soup was far from goulash, I only had canned mushrooms and zero meat. The service was very nice.

Zondagavond konden we hier nog terecht om 20:00 uur. Nooit meer doen . Schnitzel was taai met een zompige saus overladen. Groentesoep was er niet. Personeel was vriendelijk maar eens maar nooit weer. Niet te kauwen.

Don't believe they enjoy giving their customers a nice experience. Also suitable for small eaters given the size of the Wienerschnitzel

Quite friendly service, but only cash payment. We ordered a coke but it was clearly not a Coca or Pepsi cola, it tasted more like a white product from the supermarket.

Great offer on the board, the restaurant is also very nice inside. The service was a disaster, the waiter was very nice and polite but waiting 15 minutes after ordering for a drink is not possible. Then waited almost 50 minutes for a disgustingly greasy fryer schnitzel from the package. Guests who came after us also got their food here before us and it was also the advertised menu. The dessert that was offered in the menu was not available because the freezer was probably defective. This must be communicated to the guest before or when ordering and not just before serving. This is my personal opinion

Unfriendly staff. Took the wrong order 3 times and then asked irritatedly whether he should exchange it for the correct dish. White wine was lukewarm. Fries were limp and tasteless. Payment can only be made in cash, it is not clearly stated anywhere. If you say something about this, they angrily show a menu with it written somewhere at the bottom in small print. No friendliness at all. Never again. Things are much better at the neighbors!

I really liked the rustic atmosphere and the very good prices!! The waiter was super nice and friendly, I would return ✌️

The restaurant was recommended to us. My wife and I ordered pizza and beer. We both thought the pizza was pretty tasty and the beer was good. Service was also pretty good, neutrally polite and we were asked a few times if everything was OK. Recommended

Don't know why the reviews are so bad. For us it was a great experience after a nice hike. Had a lovely mozzarella salad, bratwurst, currywurst and mushroom schnitzel. Service was very nice, English speaking, and helpful. Would definitely recommend. Hopefully more people help with getting the rating back to where it belongs

The Stadtkrone is a really nice restaurant, the food is very tasty and the service is not only good but also super friendly. I enjoy eating there and so do my friends who were there with me. I can only recommend eating there when visiting Monschau!

The worst restaurant I have ever visited. No idea about customer service, super rude staff.

My tip to everyone: reserve a table at one of the good (and always full) restaurants in Monschau. We were too late, so we had to walk around and find a place to eat. This place is over priced, not very clean and the food quality and taste is below average.

We ate here at the weekend and found many of the negative reviews completely incomprehensible. The atmosphere is very appealing, it was very clean and we also liked the food. We'd love to come back.

The food is small but expensive. The service was unfriendly, the wine was of poor quality but also expensive. At first I only got a carafe of wine, no glass. After 4 minutes I got the glass.

One Sunday evening out of season we were very happy to find a restaurant open. So we didn't read the reviews. Fortunately. We ate well (quite standard value for money apart from the glass of water which we found expensive but I don't know if in Germany you can get a free carafe of water). The waiter was completely friendly and did his best with my basic German by adding a little English. The restaurant was clean. In short, I really don't understand the criticism. The fact that you can't pay with a card and I haven't seen that mentioned anywhere is actually the only valid criticism. But there is a vending machine nearby and they didn't put any pressure on us... we had time to finish our dish in peace... I won't comment on the atmosphere since it was a Sunday evening in February it's normal that there are no crowds but I repeat: the staff was completely friendly and did everything to make us feel good.

Keine Ahnung von Wein. Essen schlecht.

Very poor welcome, lousy service, average food. It is: puff pay and get out of there very quickly we want to close The village is very pretty, but very poor general reception

Sehr freundliches Personal ,und zusätzlich auch Hunde freundlich. Essen hat super geschmeckt, diese schlechten Bewertungen kann ich nicht nachvollziehen.

Wir waren heute Vorort im Restaurant, und wir können das Restaurant jedem nur weiterempfehlen Steak und Schnitzel waren super lecker der Besitzer war sehr sympathisch alles war einfach fantastisch wenn wir 100 Sterne geben könnten würden wir es machen es hat uns sehr geschmeckt lg

Als Ausflugslokal okay. Currywurst und Cordon Bleu waren recht lecker. Service so lala, wir wurden direkt darauf aufmerksam gemacht das drei Gerichte nicht bestellbar sind. Mayo und Ketchup wurden bei der Bestellung vergessen. Unser Hund wurde aber lieb mit Leckerli versorgt. Im Jahr 2023 nur Barzahlung zu akzeptieren riecht nach Steuererhinterziehung. Um uns herum mussten drei Tische noch einen Spurt zum Geldautomaten einlegen, wir leider auch. Das ist wirklich nicht akzeptabel.

Kulinarische KATASTROPHE Wir wurden von der Bedienung sehr nett empfangen. Der Tisch war aber nicht sauber, es klebte, und man sah alte Ringe von Gläsern, und die Tischdecke war auch befleckt. Die Bedienung merkte wohl, dass ich darauf guckte und mit der Hand darauf klebte, also wurde der Tisch vor uns abgewaschen und netterweise auch das Deckchen ausgetauscht. Wir haben Schnitzel gegessen, ich mit einer „Senfrahmsauce“. Die Senfrahmsoße war eine Senf Pampe, die aufs Schnitzel geschmiert worden war wie auf ein Butterbrot. Dazu gab es dann zwei Salatblätter, eine Scheibe Gurke, ein Viertel einer Tomate und einen halben Zwiebelring mit einer undefinierbar Sauce. Das Schnitzel und die Fritten waren aus der Pappdose in die Fritteuse geworfen und schmeckten überhaupt nicht. Den „Salat“ haben wir gar nicht angerührt, das ganze wirkte äußerst dubios. Fazit: Dieser Laden wirkt alles andere als vertrauenserweckend, kann man nur einen Riesenbogen drum machen.

Kind server but slow service even though the restaurant wasn’t busy. We had goulash soup (easy enough) but could immediately tell it wasn’t fresh. The soup was severely overpriced. Tourist trap.

우연히 찾게 된 예쁜 식당. 수프,슈니첼,디저트까지 15.90€ 셋트메뉴 추천합니다 !! 수프랑 슈니첼 맛있어요😍🤗 소스가 다른독일식당보다 맛있어요! 디저트는 바닐라 아이스크림 입니다 👍👍 크리스마스마켓 바로앞에 위치해요~ 다음에 몽샤우에 방문하면 또 올거예요!

Toen we binnen kwamen werden door 2 zeer vriendelijke heren ontvangen. We hebben beide een drankje besteld en gezegd dat we het rustig aan wilde doen en dat was oke. Toen zijn we de review gaan lezen. We schrokken hier erg van. Maar achteraf goed dat we gebleven zijn, er klopt totaal niets van deze reviews. Mensen zijn erg vriendelijk, bediening erg goed. Sfeer is goed, goede achtergrondmuziek, het eten is prima en alles is schoon! Dus ik snap niks van de negatieve reviews.

Hele vriendelijke uitbaters, onze chihuahua's waren welkom en het eten was heerlijk de wijn en bier idemdito

Cibo tradizionale tedesco, piuttosto buono, ma il servizio è molto lento. Personale cordiale e ambiente familiare

Heerlijk gegeten, aardige bediening nette prijs mooie locatie

Heerlijk eten, vriendelijk personeel

Waren heute zum Abendessen in diesem Lokal und den letzen freien Tisch bekommen. Haben Lachs mit Bratkartoffeln und Salat bestellt. Die Wartezeit war angemessen, das Essen absolut lecker, der Lachs perfekt gebraten. Wir können die teils schlechten Bewertungen nicht verstehen und empfehlen das Lokal auch für den netten Service. Vielen Dank zenners Landhotel (16.1o.23)

Ich kann die negativen Bewertungen ganz und gar nicht nachvollziehen. Wir sind heute sehr freundlich mit unserem kleinen Hund empfangen worden .... Wir hatten Steak und Schnitzel . Die Änderung von Pommes auf Bratkartoffeln war problemlos möglich. Uns hat es gut geschmeckt. Die Gerichte sind einfach und schmackhaft, entsprechend dem Preis Leistungsverhältnis. Die Location selbst ist entsprechend dem ganzen Ort historisch und sehr gemütlich. Die Toiletten sind modern und sehr sauber . Ein wenig Zeit sollte man schon haben ,denn gutes braucht etwas Zeit. Alles in allem empfehlenswert...

Nettes Lokal inmitten der Altstadt von Monschau mit einer jungen, aber sehr engagierten Servicecrew. Es war kein Problem nur etwas zu trinken und die Getränke wurden schnell und kühl geliefert. Anmerkung: Die Cola Light steht nicht auf der Karte und wurde ohne Eis serviert. Sollte Eis gewünscht sein, bitte entsprechend mitbestellen.

No idea what the bad reviews are on about. Had a tremendous meal (salmon with pepper sauce), and loved the view!

Het was erg druk in de omgeving en hier hadden ze nog plek. Achteraf snapten wij waarom. Bij binnenkomst al niet een heel goed gevoel. Kille sfeer binnen. Erg stil. Het is redelijk donker binnen, met een paar lampen, waarvan het lijkt alsof er al een tijdje niet schoongemaakt is. De voorraden olie staan in het restaurant, dus je krijgt het gevoel in een magazijn te zitten. Het eten is ok. Wij hadden o.a. schnitzel met patat die goed gebakken was. De patat was aan de zachte kant. De apfelstrudel zag er wel wat rommelig uit, maar qua smaak prima. De frisdrank die we besteld hadden, was lauw. Dit was toch wel teleurstellend. Je kon er alleen contant betalen. Er werd een beetje vreemd gedaan bij de betaling. De rekening was ongeveer €120. Wij gaven per ongeluk meer, omdat we het niet goed verstonden, maar er werd ook niet even gezegd dat we wisselgeld terug zouden krijgen. Gelukkig medereiziger meegekeken en het alsnog teruggevraagd.

Absolute Empfehlung! Wir hatten ein Rumpsteak und Lachsfilet, jeweils mit Bratkartoffeln. Beides war sehr lecker, zu einem fairen Preis. Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Salatbuffet reichhaltig und frisch. Die Location ist standesgemäß rustikal. Die Toiletten sind sauber und neu.

Después de una fantástica visita a este mágico pueblo medieval, terminamos sentados en la terraza de este restaurante; fue la guinda final: rápido y amable servicio disfrutando de las vistas; un buen precio acompañó a las cervezas, las patatas fritas y una buena conversación sin prisas.

Ein schön aussehendes rustikales Restaurant . Das Personal ist sehr freundlich. Der Service ist schnell. Das Essen schmeckt sehr lecker die Forelle Müllerin ist zu empfehlen.

I don't know why the reviews are so bad. If you know that it's cash only, everything is great. Food is fine. The staff is enthusiastic, polite and inviting. Even let us in for food after 22 pm. And the dog is fine, don't worry. Be sure to pet him. Also, my girlfriend liked the mickey plate for her sausage.

Goed eten, maar niks bijzonders, op de markt. Niet duur en prima bediening.

Location is nice, beer is average. However, the restaurant is cash only which is insane.

The staff and service were friendly enough, but the beer wasn't cold and the owner kept his dog on a leash outside on the pavement for the entire day we were in town. Kind of put me off the place.

Tische waren leer. Mussten leider gehen, da die Bedienung erwartete etwas zusätzlich zu Essen zu bestellen. Schade.

Terras in stadskern Monchau. Alcohol vrij glas bier (1/2l. en glas tonic €8,30). Geen food besteld. Basic food. Friet met schnitzel, worst zalm enz. Normale dinerprijzen. Geen kleine hapjes of gebak. Bediening correct, maar zeer afstandelijk.Leuke centrale plek bij mooi weer. Toilet netjes.

Über das Essen kann ich nichts sagen. Aber an dem Tag an dem wir in Monschau waren, war über mehrere Stunden (mindestens 5 Stunden) ein Hund vor der Tür angeleint. Ich dachte eigentlich "Kettenhaltung" sei mittlerweile verboten. Hier scheinbar nicht. Der Hund hatte auch, trotz heißem Wetter, teilweise kein Wasser. Ich hoffe der Hund ist kein täglich oder mehrmals wöchentlich, kurz angeleintes Assecoire. Ansonsten wäre das meines Erachtens nach ein Fall für den Tierschutz!!

Kellner versauen einem den Tag und die schöne Atmosphäre. Essen ist gut...

Beleefd en nette bediening eten was lekker zag er ook netjes en schoon uit !

Nettoyage de table avec la main devant nous, chose qui n’est pas très propre…. Sinon bon service par un autre garçon, visiblement plus professionnel.

Sehr nettes und freundliche Personal das Essen war gut und ausreichend bei schönem Wetter sitzt man sehr schön auf dem Marktplatz vor dem Restaurant Toiletten sind absolut sauber

Para salir del paso. Pedimos milanesa, sin mas. No se puede pagar con tarjeta (en general no aceptan tarjeta en casi ningun sitio)
