Schwaneninsel in Waiblingen

Very poorly organized!!! I'll explain the process: There is a series for the receipt cash register. One for drinks. One for food. So you get a meal voucher and a drinks voucher. So far so good. Now, when the weather is good, there are around 20-50 people in the drinks line in the afternoon and because most of them want to eat something, there are just as many in the food line. Here it comes: So I get my beer, which I have to wait in line for 20 minutes. Finally, with the beer in your hand, you can wait in line for another 30 minutes for a salad/hot dish..... in the food row. Logic 1.0: the beer is warm until I get to the food.... Or just empty :-) Logic 2.0: my food is cold by the time I get to the beer. Completely idiotic. A little tip to the boss: Just before you take over the food, lead the line of people past the tap counter and every second drink that is tapped goes to the next person waiting to eat. Again, add each drink in between to the drink-only row. So everyone is happy. Is it that hard??? We had 2 different salads. In the end we tipped the salad sauce from one plate to the other because the salad sauce was completely oversized. Disgusting. Practically a soup plate full of salad sauce. See photo.

Insect in the middle of the salad. As a replacement they didn't want to give me a new salad, but rather a red sausage with a roll. Purchase price has not been adjusted. Never again.

Jackfruit bratwurst with quino salad is just disappointing. Never again! Totally overpriced at €10.50 and completely misleading. New on the map and probably won't be there for long... A sausage with a tiny bowl of quinoa (side dish!) salad and 5 leaves of lettuce, some tomatoes and cucumber. Sorry, but that doesn't work at all. A portion like the summer salad would be appropriate.

Great ambience, even if the children's playground is very audible. Prices are rather expensive, quality is not so good. Waiting time for checkout and drinks was very long. For your meal you get a device that notifies you when it's ready. I like that.

No more food after 8.30 p.m., so please write that down clearly somewhere. There's a bell at the end of the serving, why not something similar when you're eating? We were a bit annoyed that half the table had something and the other half didn't.

A very nice place. On Sunday we had live music until around 2:15 p.m., which was great! The food is very good. The price is ok, but I think 50 cents for a really small dollop of ketchup or mayo is outrageous. I'll probably avoid that in the future. The food portions are good. The staff was friendly despite the stress.

Nice ambience right on the Rems! The staff was very nice and the food was delicious.

The name says it all. A beer garden. Very good food and cold beer next to the water. Access is somewhat inconspicuous next to the pedestrian zone... but there is a lot of space and very nice. Always happy. Self-service. Only this way. :)

Delicious drinks and good food!

Nice beer garden with large trees and parasols. It was nice to sit in the natural shade, which was great in the heat on Saturday. Food was good.

So where should I start? Three times Viennese style schnitzel with fries: canteen quality at best, i.e. schnitzel pre-breaded, frozen and thrown into the deep fryer, industrial product. There was no revelation in terms of taste, especially since the fries were absolutely sizzling. When asked about ketchup or mayo, it was a mean thing for me to answer with both because I only paid for one. There is obviously a strictly controlled business administration regime?! It was impossible for the junior to purchase a single slice of bread, but two slices would have been possible for one euro...? I don't have to understand. Filling you up, but not enjoyable! The location and ambience are nice, the rest is forgettable and just a way to make money.

Very nice, classic beer garden with a good, solid menu.

Very nice, cozy and good food at a fair price.

Good selection. Friendly staff. Food was ready relatively quickly. Unfortunately, portions are too small for hungry men to eat. Not enough salad dressing in the salad.

Normal beer garden, you sit in a nice shade

Full on commerce! Prices absolutely overpriced!

Alsatian style tarte flambée very good. JoBi drink also very good. There are nice shaded areas under the trees.

Way too crowded, tables dirty. My bitter lemon was quietly exchanged for a herbal lemonade, without asking. When the drinks were handed out they just said “we don’t have it”.

Always worth a visit in summer temperatures. Lots of shaded areas.

Very cozy beer garden. The food is simple but delicious. And really inexpensive. I had schnitzel with fries and sauce, good value for money. The concept is self-service, but it works quickly. I like the place😃

Food really good for a beer garden!

I had the beer garden plate with pulled pork. It was very tasty. The meat was juicy and tender. The fries were good. Unfortunately the prices are extremely expensive. There is a playground opposite, so you can also come with children.

Food and drink all very good. Nice atmosphere to sit in

Biggest and busiest bier garden in the city.

Totally overpriced, poor quality. What is served here is unbelievable. We watched the dishes being prepared and you lost your appetite. The best thing was the iced coffee, which was good and recommended. Drinks were also ok, well chilled and not stale. But the price-performance ratio and the quality are subterranean. The staff was friendly!

Always beautiful in summer. Good location, very friendly staff, delicious food and cool drinks. We'd love to come back.

Jazz on Sunday mornings, Eat good. Self-service only 🤨

Very sociable beer garden, ideal as an external, nearby social place to eat and drink in the Waiblingen community center, which can be reached on foot in about 3 minutes. Weaknesses in 2023 were addressed and prepared accordingly. We would like to come again!

The beer garden is beautifully located...only the cleanliness of the women's toilets leaves something to be desired...you go in there with children and toilet paper is on the floor, then sometimes there is no toilet paper everywhere, wet on the floor.. You should check it more often... tables are sometimes not cleaned... if you know other beer gardens, everything is spotless... Food isn't bad, but the price is a bit high and the sauce for spaetzle... currywurst... is supposed to be gravy... it's like water... and when there's a lot going on, the sausage inside is only lukewarm... it's the staff's fault

Completely satisfied with the beer garden. Even if there is more going on, the staff can deal with it quickly. Only short waiting times.

Very tasty food and good cyclists. Price-performance ratio is right and the service is quick and friendly.

Super friendly staff, even with long queues it's quick, always satisfied!

A very nice beer garden with reasonable prices, especially when it comes to food! The self-service process works well, but the line can get a little longer. I got the right drinks at all times. Toilets were always pleasantly clean. There was plenty of seating. I will definitely come back, at the latest for the next event at the community center, which is just a short hop away.

Line up 3x: 1x pay and vouchers, 1x for drinks against vouchers, 1x food against vouchers ==> DOOF!! Takes too long. And vegetarian sausage with mini salad €10.50

Great beer garden with lots of shade and friendly service, even when it's busy

Worst currywurst ever. With fries for €9.10. Terrific sausage, terrible prices. And quite a long wait for this sausage, even though there was hardly anything going on. Nice atmosphere. OK for a beer. Other dishes may taste good too.

I think there's a lot of ketchup that's enough

For some reason, the glasses are leaking

Nice beer garden with good food.

Highlight in Waiblingen! The beer garden offers live music on Sundays and the food is surprisingly good, huge selection! The location in the park on the Rems cannot be topped either. There's lots of space!

Delicious cellar beer, good, rich food.

A nice beer garden with lots of seats. There is a playground for children right next to it. The food is delicious and reasonably priced. Unfortunately, the waiting times are extreme...for a portion of fries and wild potatoes, 15 to 20 minutes...Saturdays at lunchtime with a capacity of less than a quarter. This is clearly too much.

Update: We were with my parents nearby today and they were hungry. Of course, as children are, my son wanted to eat something too, so we stopped by. The schnitzel was very good and the pulled pork burger too. The food was ready super quickly. I have therefore corrected my original rating upwards. Good job. Original: It's OK. The park next to it is great but the beer garden is not as nice as other beer gardens in the area and the food wasn't as good as other beer gardens. The salads are particularly special. A special request like “no olives please” is dismissed as not possible and the employee who puts olives on my salad is not 3 meters in front of me. That could have been done, but it was good. The biggest disgrace is the dressing in which the salad takes a bath and the plate becomes a bathtub. In addition, the dressing is almost certainly out of the bucket and the potato salad is unfortunately also completely out of the bucket. My tarte flambée, on the other hand, was good and so were the sausages for my son, although the downer lies in the details because ketchup costs extra and can only be obtained at the checkout and you are not asked if you want it with it, which is why we opt for a second ketchup Had to hire. We won't come back except for an ice cream or something to drink when we walk in the park next door, but we won't eat there again.

A cozy place and an insider tip for beer garden lovers. Families enjoy the park and the watering holes in the summer! A visit to the old city wall and a tour should not be missed. Or a visit to the herb parish garden:) A successful afternoon!

I discovered the beautiful beer garden by chance. Since I was hungry, I ordered a sausage salad and a special. Despite self-service, I received everything very quickly and was able to enjoy it.

We come here very often because it is one of the most beautiful beer gardens in the area, a very large selection of very good and rich food and very friendly service, you have to get your own food and drink, that's completely okay. The best thing here is a group of jazz musicians who play beautiful music, you just feel very comfortable here, there is also a very nice large playground, where mom and dad can rest a bit from the little ones, I'm looking forward to that again next time .

Nice beer garden, unfortunately you have to queue for a long time for everything. Addition: at the European Championships ⚽ even worse organized than usual. 70% of the visitors without drinks. With queues across the beer garden and a 55 minute wait, it's no wonder

Wir essen immer gerne einen Flammkuchen.was Sie uns allerdings gestern serviert haben war fast nicht essbar. Boden 2 cm dick und als Belag eine Pampe. Nie wieder

Class location... Great Food & Beer. The Island itself is a nice place to roam around. And the Biergarten is Cherry on top!

We haven't been to Waiblingen often. Found it today and had lunch there straight away. Nice beer garden with large trees and parasols. It was nice to sit in the shade. Went there around 11:30 a.m. and it was still relatively empty. But then it gradually became more busy. Ordering and payment went quickly and the waiting time for the food was okay. Employees all very friendly. Food was very tasty and reasonably priced. My salad plate with chicken was great. Toilet facility was very clean. One small point of criticism - you didn't get a receipt. Nevertheless, we will come back and recommend the beer garden to others.

Price performance is okay, but you have to be prepared for long waiting times if the weather is very good. It is cheap in terms of taste and price. Is self-service. There is live music on Sundays and plenty of seating. There is also a playground right next to the beer garden. Can be recommended without hesitation.

Hammer of the day: I have been a vocational school teacher for 30 years and this afternoon I invited my students to a walkout/farewell in the beer garden (without reservation). Rainy weather. Beer garden closed! Shock! The innkeeper who was present and listened to my problem recognized my emergency situation and sold us drinks anyway. I am totally happy and very grateful for this flexibility and customer friendliness. THANKS!!!!

The staff is super nice and accommodating, we have always had great visits here since then

Pure chaos when eating and drinking, first you stand in line to pay, then for drinks, then again for food, in 45 minutes you have it... then you can watch the game in the public viewing if you see and/or hear something else...

Pros: Very nice beer garden with delicious food and large portions Disadvantages: Chaotic food & drinks ordering. Step 1: Wait in checkout line and pay Step 2: Wait in the dining line and order Step 3: Wait in the drinks line to make sure your food is ice cold A beer garden with Industry 1.0

Very expensive Otherwise fine for a beer garden. The adjacent playground is great

We were there for the Germany-Hungary European Championship game. The seating arrangement is so bad, the broadcast volume is inadequate, there are no external speakers, you can't understand anything and the queues and waiting times for food and drinks are a nightmare.

Nice beer garden, it's a shame but poor organization, queuing at the cash register, then for drinks, then for food!

Nice place, good food always clean, can't complain give a try!!!

Unfriendly staff, tip was pushed back (€1.40) with no word left. Self-service, I know what to expect, but what I can't handle is that the tables aren't wiped down for new guests! Ashtrays are not emptied, dog bowls are available but you don't even want to let the dog drink out of it because it's so dirty. Radi was fresh, but there was no dressing on it, you only get salt in a small bag with herbs and flowers inside, no normal salt when asked. Pulled pork castles completely cold, taste ok but not a highlight. Wild potatoes with boring sour cream dip. Schnitzel is frozen goods, the menu says, 2x120g, not seasoned and full of fried fat. The lemon was awesome, there was only peel, it wasn't even good for decoration. Fries are very thin and get hard quickly, with the “fry salt” that you know from the fries stall. Even for a self-servicer, poor catering performance.

4.70€ for a cyclist that you have to fetch yourself is simply too much Service at the table was ok but such a no-go

Highly critical and absolutely unsavory hygiene incident in the kitchen - fortunately visible as the kitchen is open; The employee is absolutely unreasonable. Food monitoring is informed. The atmosphere is still nice and the prices are reasonable.

As always recommended Good food.....large menu.....beautiful to sit down.....live music every now and then

My house and yard beer garden. I've been a guest here for years... and have never been disappointed. Great food at really fair prices. Staff always friendly...even at peak times. Wonderful even on a hot summer day and the chestnuts! Beer garden as you wish! Highly recommended!!

Very nice beer garden right on the Rems and easy to reach from Waiblingen 😊 a nice port to stop or spend an evening in summer and when the weather is nice.

Very nice beer garden with delicious food and large portions. Almost like in Bavaria...

Very nice staff. Nice quiet atmosphere. Delicious wine 🍷

Spacious beer garden with an adjacent playground for the children.

When the beer garden opened it was still something great. The prices are now exorbitantly expensive. Latte machiatto wasn't even lukewarm. I got money back. And then the portion of ketchup. Mini clappers. Ridiculous. Playground is nice for the children. But no longer worth a visit. Too bad.

On busy days you line up at the checkout to get your tokens. Then you can queue again to pick up the drink. And then you have to wait in line even longer to get the beeper for your food. Well, then you wait at the table again until the food is ready. Who came up with this... Drinking a beer quickly is not an option here.

All in all, it's nice to take €1 for ketchup + mayo and then just put a dollop on it is a bit of a cheek. If the fries cost €4.50, at least the second sauce could be a flat rate. Soft drinks 4.50 (9€/l) is probably standard now but relatively high. But the food was delicious. And the fries are nice and crispy. Waiting times were acceptable, the line looks longer than it really is.

Nice surroundings, good beer and food. Top beer garden.

Nice beer garden with good food!!!

A good choice even in the rain. Always a good atmosphere despite long queues at the individual stations

Very nicely located beer garden with lots of shady seating. There is also a small children's playground. Self-service. 2 cash registers. The waiting time is manageable. The food was good. There are smaller portions for children. Price/performance very good. One star deducted because the toilets were really disgusting. There is potential for improvement here.

Close, cozy and friendly. Fast and friendly service. Lots of space, both shady and sunny places available.

Fast processing, nice playground for smaller children.

Very nice beer garden. Unfortunately very long queue at the food counter. Maybe we could reorganize something. There is a shortage of staff everywhere. Food was very tasty.

Ordered Currywurst Special, after 20 minutes a sausage was thrown onto a plate, not cut, with an indefinable sauce and there was no curry on it, neither curry powder nor curry taste. Where is the special??? Mini portion of soggy fries included. The whole thing then comes to 9.40. I've rarely felt so ripped off.

We were just with you! Everything went well and quickly, without any problems, and the food was very tasty 😋 We would be happy to come back! Thank you!

Were here last fall. A very cozy self-service beer garden. Here you can end the evening in a relaxed and relaxed manner.

The beautifully located Schwaneninsel beer garden is great and invites you to linger. There is a small children's playground right next to the beer garden, which we and the children really liked. The staff was very friendly and worked very quickly. Everything was clean and tidy despite being busy on a Saturday with almost 30 degrees👍🏼. The dishes were absolutely ok for the prices. I can fully recommend this beer garden. We'd love to come back.

Nice beer garden with lots of trees. Just like a beer garden should be. Self-service, good clearing service. Food is good.

Great chilled out there, great atmosphere and lots of space. We drank the beer garden empty twice over the weekend, service was satisfactory but we were a bit overwhelmed due to the many people there, so it's okay. Food was okay, it was definitely edible and tasted good, but the food was prepared and not fresh and not necessarily "edible". but will definitely come back next year 😉

Always eat your roast pork as it is always delicious. Today, however, I got the end piece, but I like it completely dried out. Unfortunately there was no more spaetzle but last day, I understand. I'm already looking forward to next season

Sehr gutes Essen und schnell zubereitet 😊 danke

This was an amazing place to eat. Bring a huge group? No problem with seating. It's fast, it's cheap, it's delicious. Have a party of 20? No issues you'll all have food and beer in 20 minutes.

Schönes Ausflugsziel mit gut bürgerlichem Essen. Sevirce meist auf zack, wenn voll kann es natürlich etwas dauern. Gehen gerne dort hin.

Ein schöner schattiger Biergarten mit Selbstbedienung, gemütlichem Ambiente und nicht zu groß. Wir ( 15 Pers. ) hatten alle verschiedene Essen, und waren durchweg zufrieden damit. Kann man bedenkenlos für ein gemütliches Päuschen weiterempfehlen.

Großer Biergarten mit Selstbedienung. Schatzen durch Bäume und Sonnenschirme. Schön knusprige Pommes, moderate Preise.

Schöner Biergarten, große Auswahl an Speisen und Getränke. Selbstbedienung

Sind total enttäuscht, wollten das zweite Mal herkommen, beim ersten Mal hat uns die Atmosphäre gut gefallen. Das Essen ist zwar alles TK-Ware, aber die Lage ist schön und die Weine lecker. Leider waren wir an einem darauffolgenden Freitag bei bestem Wetter um 20:10 vor einem schließendem Laden gestanden. Wir waren zu 7. Es waren noch Abräumer da, aber wir konnten nichts mehr bestellen. Schade, wenn man bedenkt, dass Freunde extra aus Stuttgart kamen um dann abgewiesen zu werden

If you need to host feed a large amount of people, let's say, an entire convention, seek no more. This place got a large outdoor seating area.

Schöner Biergarten mit nettem Personal, gutes Speisenangebot. Immer einen Besuch wert.

Sehr gemütlicher Biergarten mit perfekter Lage. Obwohl der Inhaber wohl nicht vor der Flut an Gästen am vergangenen Wochenende gewarnt wurde (oder es für verständlicherweise für einen Scherz hielt), hat die Besatzung den Ansturm sehr gut gestemmt. Danke für die tolle Bewirtung!

Ich hatte leider nichts zu essen, aber dafür um so mehr Getränke. Der Biergarten ist bei schönem Wetter wirklich ein herrlicher und gemütlicher Ort um mir "ein paar" Freunden den Abend ausklingen zu lassen. Was noch zu erwähnen ist, sollte am Vorabend mal ein Getränk aus sein, ist es an den nächsten zwei Tagen wieder vollstens aufgefüllt.

Ein toller Biergarten in einem schönen Park gelegen. Das Essen war ok, die Pommes fand ich etwas zu dünn und zu knusprig. Ein weicher Kern sollte schon noch da sein. Der Cider Vorrat war leider am Freitag etwas dünn, aber am Samstag war bereits wieder aufgefüllt. Ponyfreundliches Personal. Würde wiederkommen.

Pretty good. Standard walk up to the counter service , decent prices. English menus available as well. A new staple for galacon. o3o

Lekker eten en drinken en leuke locatie. Vriendelijke personeel en veel keuze. Het eten was wel bijna op na 3 dagen terugkomen met een hele grote groep, maar dat is te begrijpen. Ik denk dat de Biergarten niet op de hoogte was dat het zo druk zou worden. Hopelijk volgend jaar weer!

Es war sehr schön hier, kommen wieder.
