restaurantcafé in der Alten Mühle in Bad Vilbel

We always enjoy coming here. Very friendly staff and a great location for a Hugo or a coffee in the sun. Unfortunately, I can't rate the food; we haven't eaten here yet, as the vegan selection is quite limited. Unfortunately, there are no vegan cakes either. They could definitely improve this.

The somewhat hidden restaurant is easy to reach on foot via Hassia Park. I went there for dinner with a large group. The service staff was friendly and quick and the food was well prepared and super tasty. The restaurant also has a beautifully located beer garden.

Unfortunately my visit to “In der Alten Mühle” was disappointing. The following points contributed to this: SERVICE: The service was nice but totally overwhelmed (lost). People didn't necessarily talk nicely to each other and in front of guests. Ambiance: you can expect more for this price range. Price-performance ratio: Aperol with a lot of ice and little Aperol for €8.70 is unacceptable. In Bad Vilbel you can get a more tasty Aperol for half the price in other places. Cleanliness: the service staff keep the tables clean, but the same cannot be said about the toilets. Toilets in a restaurant are always an indicator of how hygiene is handled on site in general. Everyone can draw their own conclusions from that. Conclusion: Prices at the world level with the service of a province.

Mein Freund und ich waren am Sonntag gegen 17:00 Uhr vor Ort. Anfangs wirkte das Ambiente wirklich gemütlich, und auch Personal war genügend vor Ort. Doch schnell merkte man, dass das Personal teilweise völlig überfordert und orientierungslos wirkte. Wir haben uns dann selbst einen Aperol Spritz bestellt und uns nach draußen begeben. Also ich selbst komme aus der Gastronomie und habe noch nie einen so schlechten Aperol-Spritz getrunken. Und das für den stolzen Preis von 8,70 € pro Glas. Das Glas war bis oben hin mit Eiswürfeln gefüllt. (hier ist weniger mehr) Ich weiß nicht, ob es Sekt oder Prosecco war. Auf jeden Fall war er schal und kaum zu schmecken. Ich habe vergeblich nach dem „Spritz“ gesucht. Und dieses kleine verkümmerte Stück Orange erst, keine Ahnung, was man sich dabei gedacht hat. Also das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis passte hier auf keinen Fall. Ich zahle auch gern mal zehn Euro für ein gutes Getränk, wenn es eben ordentlich zubereitet wird. Ich bin mega enttäuscht. Davon mal abgesehen bekommt man in der Innenstadt von Bad Vilbel bei einem Eiscafé einen super leckeren Aperol Spritz für gerade mal 4,80 €. (Nur mal so am Rande) Last but not least, die Toiletten sind die untersten Kategorien in diesem Haus gewesen. Zumindest an diesem Tag. Also jedes Bahnhofsklo in Frankfurt ist sauberer als es hier der Fall war. Es fehlte in jeder Toilette das Toilettenpapier. Die Toiletten selbst haben schon bessere Zeiten gesehen. Zumindest was die Sauberkeit betrifft, „absolut unterirdisch“ Die Waschbecken waren verdreckt & voller Haare. Der Seifenspender war übergelaufen, überall lag Toilettenpapier herum. Die Spiegel waren komplett verschmiert und verspritzt. Mein Freund berichtet, dass es in der Herrentoilette nicht anders aussah, absolut unterirdisch und Grenzwertig. Als wir nach draußen gingen, haben wir sehen können, dass mindestens sechs Bedienungen mit Küchenhandtüchern im Kreis standen & abgetrocknet haben. Nichts gegen die Bedienungen, die waren alle nett, haben sich wirklich Mühe gegeben, aber wie gesagt, sie waren alle irgendwie lost. Haben sich vor Gästen gestritten und waren absolut überfordert, gerade wenn es ums Bezahlen ging. Was wir zufällig mitbekommen haben: Zwei Frauen am Nebentisch mussten locker 30 Minuten warten und viermal fragen, ob sie denn endlich bezahlen könnten. Schlussendlich sind sie aufgestanden und nach drinnen gegangen, um zu bezahlen. Gerade ich weiß, dass der Job in der Gastronomie einem vieles abverlangt, aber gerade für dieses Haus und den Hype, der da herrscht, verstehe ich das nicht, könnt ihr euch kein Toiletten-Personal leisten? Oder euer Personal anständig Schulen? Hier hat mir einfach ein Team Leader oder Ähnliches gefehlt. Fazit, man hat es mal gesehen und das war’s auch schon. Schade

My boyfriend and I arrived on Sunday around 5:00 p.m. At first, the atmosphere seemed really cozy, and there were plenty of staff on hand. But we quickly noticed that some of the staff seemed completely overwhelmed and disoriented. We then ordered ourselves an Aperol Spritz and went outside. I come from the restaurant industry and have never had such a bad Aperol Spritz. And that for the hefty price of €8.70 per glass. The glass was filled to the top with ice cubes. (Less is more here.) I don't know if it was sparkling wine or Prosecco. In any case, it was flat and barely palatable. I looked in vain for the "Spritz." And that little shriveled piece of orange—no idea what they were thinking. So the value for money was definitely not right here. I'm happy to pay ten euros for a good drink, as long as it's prepared properly. I'm extremely disappointed. Apart from that, you can get a super delicious Aperol Spritz at an ice cream parlor in downtown Bad Vilbel for just €4.80. (Just a side note.) Last but not least, the toilets were the lowest category in this building. At least on that day. Any train station restroom in Frankfurt is cleaner than this one. Every toilet was missing toilet paper. The toilets themselves have seen better days. At least in terms of cleanliness, "absolutely substandard." The sinks were dirty and full of hair. The soap dispenser was overflowing, and toilet paper was lying around everywhere. The mirrors were completely smeared and splattered. My boyfriend reports that the men's restroom was no different: absolutely substandard and borderline. When we went outside, we saw at least six waitresses standing in a circle with kitchen towels, drying themselves. Nothing against the waitresses; they were all nice and really tried hard, but as I said, they were all kind of lost. They were arguing in front of guests and were completely overwhelmed, especially when it came to paying. What we overheard: Two women at the next table had to wait at least 30 minutes and asked four times if they could finally pay. Finally, they got up and went inside to pay. I, of all people, know that a job in the restaurant industry demands a lot, but especially for this place and the hype surrounding it, I don't understand it. Can't you afford restroom staff? Or properly train your staff? I just felt like a team leader or something similar was missing here. Bottom line: you saw it once, and that's it. Too bad

It was again a great experience to stay in the “Alte Mühle”. Delicious food and very friendly staff. I'd love to come back.

The toilets are an imposition. Service was borderline, it was supposed to be fun, but unfortunately it was quite intrusive. Food, okay, but no revelation.

Small restaurant with very tasty food and friendly service. There is something for everyone. The only thing that bothers me is that the tables are very close to each other. Nice terrace in summer.

Very nice and friendly staff. Delicious and high quality food.

We were there for lunch with a larger group. After a warm, professional welcome and a look at the menu, it can be said that there is something for everyone, including vegetarian and vegan dishes. The service is very good, they are happy to take care of your every wish. The food was very good, we had a variety of different starters, main courses and desserts, everything freshly prepared and very tasty. I chose the vegan option. Really on point in terms of taste. Which has nothing to do with the food but is very good for the space. The dining room was full down to the last table. You would think that it must have been very loud, but thanks to appropriate soundproofing measures on the ceiling, it was very pleasant and there wasn't really any noise in the small room. It's been a long time since I've visited the Old Mill indoors, usually only outside in the summer, and I'll definitely be back

Very nice, always friendly team, excellent, not intrusive, courteous service, reasonable prices, consistently high quality for years and always very, very tasty. To get to the point: tasty!

Great location, very friendly and service-oriented staff. Clear recommendation.

This time I only visited one exhibition. The old mill is a very nice restaurant cafe, you can also sit outside in summer.

As always, everything was very tasty. And good, attentive service.

Very nicely located restaurant on the Nidda. Privacy-protected courtyard where you can sit protected from the wind. The food is different. The salads and the daily menu (spaghetti pesto) were delicious and a very generous portion. The schnitzel with fried potatoes was manageable. The meat portion was OK but the fried potatoes were a bit tight and quite oily. The staff is friendly, very attentive and on the ball.

The service in particular is outstanding. We always like to come back.

Wir waren wiederholt zum Teamessen mit 16 Personen in der Alten Mühle und es hat wieder alles reibungslos geklappt. Das Essen wurde schnell und gleichzeitig serviert, war wie immer liebevoll angerichtet und sehr lecker. Der Service war sehr freundlich, zuvorkommend und schnell. Rundherum ein gelungenes Mittagessen. Wir können dieses Restaurant absolut empfehlen!

We went to the old mill for the first time last night as part of our team Christmas party and were simply thrilled. We were asked about our menu preferences by email in advance. Then our Christmas party started yesterday. From the first minute we received incredibly good and attentive service, but it didn't seem intrusive in any way - it's a fine line sometimes. We received wonderful and varied advice regarding the starters and main courses. Even special requests were fulfilled without hesitation by our friendly service employee Jefferson with an open and friendly smile. The dishes were a poem and were praised by all colleagues. The cuisine is upscale, but also offers good portion sizes that fill you up - so the slightly higher prices are definitely justified. The dining room inside is not very large and therefore has a cozy atmosphere. We went to the Christmas party with another company, but we didn't feel disturbed or neglected. The beautiful outdoor area definitely encourages multiple visits in the summer when you can sit outside. We would like to thank you very much for this competent and courteous hospitality and award full points

As we have done for many years, we celebrated our own company's Christmas dinner with you yesterday. (We sat on the mirror side). Like every year, we go in full of anticipation, feel in good hands in every respect and leave totally happy. You gave us a really nice evening with your warmth and your culinary highlights. You really do everything with dedication and you can really feel and taste it. Please keep it up. You are great!

We - six people - had a wonderful evening in the Alte Mühle and enjoyed it very much! Everything was right: the food, the service and the ambience. We felt comfortable and will definitely come back in the summer to sit outside and enjoy the food! The only drawback is the parking situation. Out of necessity, we parked in the Volksbank parking lot and paid 11.50 euros for 4.5 hours when we left!

We had a wonderful evening in the Alte Mühle, the staff was super friendly and attentive ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐cool female service and extra praise for the young woman 👍

Dear team, We celebrated another birthday with you and are once again thrilled. Your friendliness and the delicious food always exceed our expectations. Thanks

Good food, great staff, great atmosphere.

A little expensive but sensational meat for lovers and carnivores. Not a big card but great in this case. Really great service, especially Martin is worth mentioning here because he was very nice and friendly.

Top service, delicious food and a very pleasant atmosphere

Simply great. Very tasty, high-quality food and great ambience on the Nidda. But what stood out for me was the service. All service staff are super friendly and accommodating. The waitress who served us was great. I pointed out to her that I had a nut allergy and she specifically asked the kitchen and modified the dish a little for me. Instead of walnut dressing, there was normal oil and balsamic vinegar for the salad. That sounds super simple, but unfortunately it is not self-evident. She also automatically paid attention to the appetizers and informed me again that she had asked and that I could eat everything with peace of mind. You feel in good hands here. Thank you very much for the lovely evening. P.S. The baked sweet potato with beef strips and the corn-fed chicken are awesome.

Great food, great service, nice sun terrace in summer. Directly on the Nidda, even with deck chairs

Super dedicated staff. Great menu card. You always find something, special particularly suitable for vegetarians.

We went there for breakfast with friends today and it was perfect. Thank you to the team for the great service and delicious food. Anytime again 👍🏻

Great ambience, very nice staff, the food looked nice, but was unfortunately a little underseasoned and partly cold.

Very nice staff, good food at an acceptable price. Relaxed but professional staff. Recommended boiled beef. We'd love to come back.

Just great to sit in the garden.

The food tasted very good. It's nice to sit outside and the service is also courteous.

We sat here in the evening to have a leisurely beer. I ordered a Kaiserschmarrn, which was really very good. Thank you for the delicious food.

Always fantastic. Celebrated here 17 years ago after our wedding in the town hall, celebrated my 60th birthday here, and also my farewell to active professional life. Recently celebrated our wedding anniversary here. We eat here often and have never been disappointed. Creative food at its finest. Location on the Nidda is great. Service very friendly. You should make a reservation now because it is very popular. The restaurant deserves success. Even during Corona times, the team gave everything to survive. We look forward to such a good restaurant near us.

Very tasty, not exactly cheap, nice service and a great ambience

Very good food, nice to sit outside and a nice seat right on the Nidda. The service is good.

Very nice, but seems a bit cold

The drinks consist of 50% ice. Then they don't taste as good. The cardboard straws are no good at all. Glass straws are much better. Or noodle straws also work. It's not a romantic old mill, but a completely normal house. But the park opposite is nice.

Very nice aaaaaaaaabut I don't know what was going on today but I wanted a hard boiled egg ordered I had to let it go back 5 times the first one was completely raw and the one after that was very soft to runny 😂

Ate there full of anticipation (because of the good reviews). My partner's food was ok but it was also at the table more than five minutes before mine. When my food came the meat was almost cold and the beef quality was not good. It was very greasy and mixed. Instead of chanterelles, there were baked vegetables on the plate. When asked, they said there were no more chanterelles left! Conclusion: Unfortunately, the price-performance ratio doesn't fit at all. It's a shame but unfortunately not recommended.

Pay attention!!!!!!!!! There is NO banana wheat.

Friendly service, just had something to drink

Beautiful ambience, in summer and winter. Every time I'm there I'm amazed by the delicious, amazing food and the wonderful staff!

Nice location by the river. Here you can also enjoy a drink while chilling on deck chairs. Restaurant terrace on 2 levels with a very pleasant atmosphere. Staff really of exceptional friendliness. So far so good. I've eaten here several times and it's always been good. Unfortunately, this time I made the mistake of ordering something that at least sounded Asian, but didn't taste anything like it. The glass noodles with vegetables and fried shitake mushrooms were an imposition and should not be served in any self-respecting restaurant. The glass noodles were a single, indiscernable lump that they had probably forgotten to loosen up during the short cooking process. Actually every amateur chef knows this. The vegetables consisted of 3/4 raw green pepper strips. However, the 2 (two) shitake mushrooms, which should only be briefly fried, were completely overcooked, therefore slimy and no longer recognizable as mushrooms. Typical variety of flavors that Asian cuisine thrives on: Not available. This fiasco on the plate cost 17 euros. The dish with the worst price-performance ratio I've ever had. I wonder why they put something like this on the menu and don't just stick with regional cuisine. For the sake of fairness, I would like to say that the taste of my companions' dishes was okay.

Always great every time. Simply fantastic, especially in summer. An absolute highlight this time were the glass noodles with vegetables, shrimp and shitake mushrooms. This dish must find a permanent place on the menu. The taste of this dish alone surpasses any upscale Asian restaurant we have visited to date. That's why the previous recession is a little surprising, because I describe vegetables like this as al dente and in Asia it is quite common to untangle the glass noodles in the liquid yourself (which, by the way, is normal, as every hobby cook who has ever done so knows prepared glass noodles ;-) ) in short, an excellent dish!

The food tastes delicious, great selection. The service is very friendly

Very nice restaurant in Bad Vilbel right on the Nahe. I chose the vegan sweet potato, my accompaniment was the baby spinach salad with sheep's cheese. We enjoyed it and the portions were sufficient. We would love to come back 😊

Delicious food and nice service. Can be easily combined with a walk along the Nidda. Reservations recommended!

Wonderful beer garden, quiet and not too crowded. The food is good and it's easy to stay here on summer days.

If you turn up, they tell you must reserve in advance. When you call to reserve in advance they tell you you must turn up. They evidently only serve locals.

Always nice to be there. Delicious food, excellent service. A place to spend quality time with friends. Absolute recommendation.

Only been there for a short time. Only had one drink. I would love to come back

Dishes were ok, service could be a bit more attentive (requesting more drinks, clearing empty plates, etc.), the name of the restaurant suggests a cozy interior, but is functionally modern. I would still come back again.

Review refers to catering in Burg Bad Vilbel for events. Very friendly, attentive service. Great food.

The food was super delicious. What was very noticeable to me was the outstanding friendliness of the staff. And that is genuine friendliness, not fake phrases. I'm excited.

We were guests here at a big birthday party. The food was good, the service was friendly and accommodating. The location is nice, as is the location!

Good service and delicious food

Coffee great, waffles flop, unfortunately a bit dry, thought the waffles were in a fruity sauce with fruit, unfortunately that wasn't the case. We were lucky to get a nice place, the staff was very friendly and attentive.

The service was very friendly and helpful. The food was very good and appropriate for the price.

The food is super delicious 😋 definitely fresh ingredients, as unfortunately there was no food that evening. Slightly smaller portions but completely sufficient. The space is quite cramped, so comfortable. On the terrace it is a little more spacious.

Super nice service. The homemade lemonade and strawberry rhubarb cake were delicious.

I think the old mill is great. You sit in close proximity to the Nidda. If you just want something to drink, you can also sit on deck chairs directly on the Nidda. The food is very varied and delicious. There is always a current weekly menu and also the local Bad Vilbeler beer. You can also take the delicious soup or stews in a glass to take home with you. The cocktails are also something special and the service is always friendly.

Very good restaurant, the prices are okay too. Strongly attended.

We treated ourselves to two apples and sat on a bench on the bridge. Wonderful and prices are humane.

Nice beer garden, unfortunately there weren't all the dishes on the menu because we were there ten past 3 p.m.

Absolute recommendation! Fast, friendly and attentive service, delicious food, beautifully presented and well cooked, varied menu, there should be something for everyone. It's comfortable to sit inside and nice and airy outside. We will be back!

Everything fine. We ate in the idyllic outdoor area and were served very friendly. The food was very tasty.

Great to sit outside and have breakfast in summer. You almost feel like you are in your own garden. Delicious breakfast, but it's best to reserve in advance or be there shortly before 10 a.m.

The white asparagus soup tastes great, the lasagna with asparagus is very fluffy and airy, a delicious meal. Sweet potatoes with veal are also great, very interesting salads combined with fresh and marinated vegetables. Everything happened very quickly, the waitress was friendly and always ready to help choose the dishes. I can definitely recommend the curd and poppy seed dessert, refreshing and suitable for summer Everything exceeded expectations. we will be back! I definitely recommend it!

Delicious food, you can sit outside and the service is friendly. There could be a few more umbrellas outside to provide shade on sunny days.

A place to switch off and unwind.

Very friendly and fast staff, cozy atmosphere and delicious food. We had a very nice evening.

Nice place, prices expensive service very very slow

Great ambience and delicious food😋

A very good Frankfurter Green Sauce with potatoes and eggs served by a super friendly service. All in all excellent.

My favorite stop before I cycle along the Nidda. Very good coffee and the cheesecake is close to mine! 😜

Service great, food delicious, unfortunately a bit noisy in the restaurant.

We always enjoy going to the Alte Mühle, usually for lunch. The service is great, the atmosphere is really nice and the food is always very good. The menu is diverse, regional and seasonal, but not overloaded and everyone will find something, whether meat, fish or vegetarian. The selection of drinks is large, we particularly like the homemade lemonades. We recently had lunch at the Alte Mühle with a group of 16 people and had emailed our main course selection to the restaurant in advance. We were able to sit outside in the sun, didn't have to wait long and everything was perfect. Both inside and outside you can sit very well and in a relaxed atmosphere. The service is always attentive and very friendly. Special requests are responded to flexibly. Highly Recommended!

Very nice service, the dining room is very small, but cozy. The food was very, very tasty.

A restaurant in the middle of exciting cultural places such as castle festivals, theaters or cinemas. Great ambience, very nice outdoor terrace on the Nidda. Very tasty, varied and seasonal dishes. Good vegetarian and vegan options. Super nice and courteous service! Better reserve!

Great restaurant, have been there several times. Reservations are definitely an advantage. They also have great breakfast selections. Would love to come back...

Very friendly and competent staff. Recommendation would be one of the sweet potato dishes.

Service is underground, not possible at all. Cake 🎂 tiny. We actually waited almost 30 minutes to pay. An older lady who sat down with us due to lack of space was not served at all. I was very sorry for you.

Very tasty, nice atmosphere. It was full, so the service wasn't always immediate, but still very friendly. Clear recommendation.

I was here for lunch and treated myself to a Thai curry with shrimps. The vegetables were cooked to perfection. The rice just right. It tasted fantastic. Full marks for the chef. Service was nice and good. Ambience too, although the tables are very narrow for my taste. But overall, great as always!

Very nice and cozy location, delicious food, fully recommended!

Delicious and rich breakfast in a nice vaulted ambience...breakfast for 2 is bombastic...and lasts super nice service..it's well worth coming...even for vegetarians..

I love “the mill”. The food is always creative, whether Asian or Hessian. The waitresses are pleasantly casual and yet competent and friendly. Whether breakfast or dinner, inside or outside. Mill always works!

Only stopped in for coffee and kuchen. The location by the river is great, but apart from that, nothing special. The coffee was German strong and a good price. I wanted an Apfel Strudel until I saw the price. Nearly double what I would pay elsewhere. Maybe they served the whole cake?

Spent a great evening here with work colleagues. - Cozy atmosphere, small menu, but good food and there really is something for everyone. - The service was very friendly and nice and also responded to special requests. One star less for the service (I would have only taken half off if I could), it was a little overwhelmed at times, but it was also completely full. - Thank you for the lovely evening

Sehr schönes kleines Restaurant. Ich habe dort ein Frühstück gemacht und hatte ein Rührei und Pancakes. Hat sehr gut geschmeckt und von der Menge her hätte eins von beiden absolut gereicht. Die Bedienung war auch sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Gerne wieder.

War mit der Familie zum Mittagessen dort. Das Essen ist wirklich sehr lecker und die Preise sind fair. Der Kellner war sehr aufmerksam und freundlich was für mich auch einer der wichtigsten Punkte ist!

Mitarbeiter waren sehr nett aber am 3. Adventssonntag-Nachmittag ein wenig überfordert. Ein bestellter Kuchen und ein Kaffee wurden vergessen. Der Bratapfel-Marzipan Crumble war durchaus knusprig und lecker - aber etwas mehr Apfel und Marzipan wäre noch besser.

Gutes, leckeres Essen Flotte Bedienung Preislich im Lot Kommen wieder

Leckeres Essen, super netter Service. Man schmeckt, dass das Essen frisch & hausgemacht ist. Wir kommen gerne wieder

Traumhaftes Ambiente, super leckeres Essen. Der BESTE Service überhaupt, immer freundlich und ein Lächeln im Gesicht. …unbedingt den Kaiserschmarren probieren!!! …und der Glühwein erst …❄️🤩

Wir waren im Rahmen einer Feier für unsere langjährigen Mitarbeiter und Mitarbeiterinnen da, das Ambiente und Essen waren sehr gut und der Service hervorragend. Sehr gute Auswahl an Speisen und Getränke für die Veranstaltung. Die Lage am Rande des Parks ist top.

War vergangene Woche mit mehreren Freunden, also insgesamt 14 Leuten hier essen. Den Tisch hatte ich schon einige Wochen zuvor bestellt. Alle Freunde waren über den Service, die bestellten Getränke und Gerichte begeistert. Der Service war sehr angenehm und aufmerksam. Besonders das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis hat allen sehr gut gefallen. Weiter so: Wir werden wiederkommen!

Ich gehe schon seit Jahren gerne in die Alte Mühle, denn dort kann man sich richtig wohl fühlen.
