SKAJO in Freiburg im Breisgau

Great view of the cathedral and surrounding hills. Nice and cozy decor. Different types of tables and chairs allow you to choose how you want to relax. However, the service is unpleasant. You can't pay by card on the phone, so only cash or a physical card remains. Unfortunately, the elevator was not working and you had to walk to the 5th floor.

After the registry office, we toasted our wedding with a champagne reception and canapés with 40 people. The canapés were absolutely delicious, and the champagne reception was also perfectly planned. Thanks again to the entire Skajo team; you did a fantastic job.

Great view over the city. I've never understood why these trendy hangouts only serve small beers. But I don't have to profit from the sales.

Very nice view over Freiburg 🥰🥰😁

It was a really nice evening, there were 5 of us and everyone was thrilled 🤩

Beautiful roof terrace overlooking Freiburg's rooftops. It offers both shaded and sunny spots.

Great selection of beverages. The food looks amazing, is well presented and tastes incredible. You can taste that a professional is in the kitchen. The service is friendly and offers good recommendations. Thanks for the great service!

It's always a good idea to enjoy the view of Freiburg from the roof terrace. A little more expensive, but the view is worth it.

Everything rich and beautiful view of the city! An Argentine summer here 🇦🇷

Nice rooftop bar with a view over the city. Unfortunately, the service wasn't that motivated, which was a bit of a shame

We ate here and were unfortunately quite disappointed. We ordered two burgers that were still raw inside. After we told the waitress, they took them back and brought them again - but unfortunately they still weren't cooked properly. Also, we had a steak that was extremely tough, so much so that you couldn't even chew it. Even though it was clear that only one piece had been tried, the only response was a cheeky comment about why we hadn't said anything beforehand. Several waiters later asked why the plates weren't empty and we explained again. As a small apology we were offered a free drink or two. The ambience was nice, but the experience unfortunately left us hungry

The roof terrace of the Skajo Restaurant is the perfect place to get a view of the city or to consume delicious drinks.

Rooftop haben wir den Apéro auf der tollen Terrasse mit Blick auf die Stadt genossen und dann im Restaurant sehr fein ein thailändisches Gericht genossen. Gerne wieder.

Just had something to drink on the roof terrace. Due to the weather it was self-service but that was fine. Staff was friendly. Prices are okay

Discovered by chance while visiting Freiburg. Great roof terrace, delicious salad and a fantastic panoramic view

I can only recommend it, everything was great, food, service and a beautiful view.

the prices are too high! as if you were in London! The service is terrible! wouldn't even give you one star!

Ambience: very nice on the roofs of Freiburg. When the weather is nice it will be difficult to find a place here. Just for information… Food was very tasty, but waiting times were too long. It was really busy on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Service lady was nice, but not well prepared and stressed. Technically this wasn't possible when ordering because the battery was empty. But she quickly got a new one. Still very slow… But everything else was great. 👍👏👌🏼 I highly recommend… also very good cocktails…🍹🍸

10€ for a cocktail with 2/3 ice cubes.

Unfortunately, the staff is very unfriendly. They prefer to cater to guests who look more well-off. It seems to be based on the nose factor.

very beautiful view of freiburg cathedral!!! pina coloda tasted good. only thing was for some reason we weren’t allowed to eat any food that we ordered outside, so we only got drinks, which we had to carry up about 3 flights of stairs to the balcony. but other than that, they had nice music and seating.

They charge you 3€ for tap water which should be free... ridiculous

As good as the location is, the service is also bad

Unnecessary wannabe shop, you have a rooftop, wow, that's it. Menu is completely outdated, interior is outdated, and prices don't match. The staff practice classism. So, folks, if you've ever been on vacation in Barcelona, ​​Mallorca, or anywhere else and been lured into tourist-trap shops by some entertainers and regretted it afterwards, this is exactly the kind of shop, only without the entertainers. Nobody needs it, you drink your champagne, I'll drink my Crémant in good company 😉 Addendum: Response to your professional reply: But I'm laughing tears of joy 😂

Great roof terrace, relaxed music without being too loud, for a short time like on vacation, antipasti and cheese platters absolutely recommended, service super friendly and accommodating, price/performance ratio absolutely okay, we'll be happy to come back

Everything was great but so were the prices

Simply a “must be” atmosphere. Right in the center and yet that feeling of being in another world. Small menu but tasty. In the afternoon we had the cheese plate and precisely chilled Chardonnay. Prices great for this location. The next morning (opens from 11am) we were repeat offenders. And don't forget the staff. Natalie, who has the right sense of humor and top service. Every time I visit my former home.

Is a great place. But the service isn't what you expect. We go there very often. But after today's event, that was it for us. Too bad.

We had the saffron risotto and the napkin dumplings, the only two vegetarian dishes on the menu. Both were very expensive, but unfortunately not even moderately tasty. The pumpkin in the risotto wasn't cooked all the way through, and the mushroom served with it had a more chewy texture than a firm texture... The dumplings were okay, but too bland and too "standard" for the price. The service was slow, even though there weren't many customers. Furthermore, the staff were very rude to one another. The only bright spot is the view of Freiburg Minster.

Been there a few times so far and the last two times there was a super unfriendly brunette waitress there. Only prepared half of our order and then ignored us. On request she was unnerved, and there was really hardly anything going on. A friendly employee then took over and everything was fine. Still, the view is great, delicious wine, cool events.

Really cool place, food was good and the cocktails were also good. Service was great. Why 4 stars? Price performance was not really there.

I rated it 5 stars 7 years ago. Unfortunately the service has deteriorated so much that I only have 3 stars left. Until someone came... Until we were served and until we were finally allowed to pay... And then unfortunately very rude and with a cheeky comment... Thanks to the ambience I don't just give it 2 stars.

Warum lässt der Wirt seine Angestellten mit mit einer Schrott-Technik alleine? ☹️☹️☹️Heute am ersten richtig schön warmen Tag im Jahr 2025 Uhr ist die Terrasse wirklich sehr gut besucht. Die paar wenigen Bedienungen/ Ordermen bzw. Orderwomen s7nd weil nichts mehr funtioniert überfordert; die Träger und Läufer können sowieso nichts machen; und den Konsequenz wartet der Gast auf einer schönen, bumsvollen geselligenTerrasse im angenehmen Frühlingsklima über 45 Minuten um seine Bestellung abz geben zu können ... um dann nach geraumer Zeit nur eins von zwei georderten Getränken für zwei Personen zu empfangen. Der Versuch das zweite Getränk zu bekommen entwickelt sich zum Drama weil keiner dafür zuständig ist oder es irgendwie bringen kann. 35 Minuten nach dem ersten Getränk war dann nach mehrfacher Nachfrage das zweite auf dem Tisch. Möge ein normaler Gast das selber bewerten.

Nice place with good drinks and service.

It was so good and my coffee was so alpha

I had prepared myself for a tourist trap and was convinced otherwise. The prices are totally okay in relation to the view and the general level of Freiburg. €5 Aperol offer absolutely brilliant. Service is understaffed but makes an effort.

No rating, were sent away, dogs, including small Pomeranians, were not allowed

We were there today around 4:00 p.m. on January 30th. in your restaurant. A young woman with long dark hair served us and it seemed to me that she spoke Russian. Unfortunately, our experience this time was disappointing. The waitress was unfriendly and seemed to have little interest in the guests. She responded to questions in an annoyed manner and gave the impression that she didn't want to serve us. When I asked for five minutes to think about it, she just turned around and left without saying a word. We have never had such an experience in your restaurant before. It would be nice if more emphasis was placed on friendly and professional service.

The food was good. The service remained below expectations, considering the rather high prices.

I went there for dinner on a saturday night. I took the beef tartare as a starters, it was not very good and then the spinach risotto which was good and finally mochis that were ok. The women in charge of our table was not very nice and customer friendly, for example she left us the wine bottle without opening it and serving it. Her colleague was much more customer friendly so maybe we just had bad luck. Fortunately the company was very good so I had a very nice moment.

I'm here right now and the service was bad, the coffee wasn't really full or the wrong choice of cup. I was just told that spoons weren't clean right now and there was no sugar either. Thank you very much but I won't be coming back.

Delicious salads, very kind waiter who made the effort to speak in French. A negative point for the mojito which tasted like lemonade.

We celebrated New Year's Eve at SKAJO. The 5 course menu was super delicious! Every course was fun and beautifully presented. Our food all came at the same time. Service was very attentive, nice and absolutely professional. Unfortunately, you rarely see something like this these days! Wine selection was also very good and the price was completely reasonable. Fireworks could be viewed from the roof terrace. Was an unforgettable experience. Afterwards there was a party with a DJ. However, this could have been better. We'll definitely be back! Thanks for the great party!

SKAJO, in Freiburg, is a restaurant that combines a calm and cozy atmosphere with a top-notch gastronomic experience. The food is excellent, with well-prepared and tasty dishes, and the service is impeccable, with the staff always attentive and helpful. A big highlight is the incredible view that the restaurant provides, perfect for those who want to enjoy a meal in a unique setting. Furthermore, the menu is accessible to both German and English speakers, which makes it much easier for tourists. I recommend it to everyone who visits Freiburg, as it is an experience that is truly worth it!

Overpriced, overrated, outrageous and definitely never again! We were first shown to a place near the lounge. After about 15 minutes of waiting, a waitress came and told us the place was reserved. She led us to a bar table in the entrance area where we could finally order something. After about 15 minutes another couple came and was able to sit at this place, they had definitely reserved ;-) at the same time we were told that the entrance area was now needed and that we should move around again. We paid for it and left.

Unfortunately, I have experienced very poor service several times and had to wait a long time to order drinks, only to be told that the drinks I wanted were "no longer there".

Starter salad far too rich. Onion roast was well fried and spaetzle was ok. Zander was nicely presented. Sauce was very good. The waiter wanted to pour the wine on “cool” but the wine ended up on the table and on us. Price performance definitely fits. It's way too loud in the restaurant. A group made noise all evening. Took photos with flash and threw things around. The whole restaurant gave them dirty looks but the employees didn't think they should do anything. Friendly waitress who provided information about ingredients. Unfortunately, we expected more from the evening. However, food was good.

Waiters 100/10. Location 10/10. Drinks 8/10. Food 6/10 (I just didn't get the joke with the salads, one with bacon, the second vegetarian, but both have these "leaves"😅😅😅 .

Bad, inattentive service. Very unfriendly. In addition, the wrong payment was made. No soap available in the bathroom. Not recommended.

Christmas party on Mondays over the rooftops of Freiburg was flawless, great, no criticism. Food to the point, kitchen fully concentrated...!

Un restaurant avec un emplacement incroyable avec vue sur la cathédrale. L’accueil n’est pas chaleureux mais le décor du restaurant est chaleureux et feutré, avec une jolie carte des mets au prix correct. On a bien manger mais le service comme l’accueil est froid dommage.

Absolutely great and always worth a visit

Food was decent but the service was not good. The big plus is for sure the view

Einzige was es gut war, Brot und Wasser! Überall war Sahne drin in Vorspeise und Hauptspeise! Salat war salzig und Lachs hat nach nichts geschmeckt. Preis übertrieben dafür! Kellnerin sehr unfreundlich.

Very poor quality food and wine, the only thing that tasted good was water and bread! Waitress totally unfriendly! Exaggerate prices! Never again...

Super nice terrace with a view. Nice service. High quality food. Thanks

When we visited there was only a small selection.

With a view of the cathedral. Pleasant, chilled, the perfect pit stop

Nice atmosphere in the restaurant too, attentive service and really tasty food, well-priced, not cheap. Only the dessert Rumpflaumen with vanilla ice cream was disappointing - plums were unripe and rum was almost unnoticeably presented in the glass with too much cream unimaginative. There are also delicious dishes for vegetarian tastes, such as pumpkin risotto

Der Service ist ja bekanntlich nicht der Hit, noch dazu für eine 0,2 !!!! Cola 3,60€ zu verlangen finde ich verbraucherschutzrechtlich schon fast bedenklich. Natürlich gab es dann kein Trinkgeld, auch wenn die Servicedame versucht hat, sich selbst zu bereichern. Aber wenn keiner boykottiert dann geht es grad so weiter , Augen auf Leute.

Great atmosphere and really nice employees. We visited for a few cocktails in the evening for the first time. And it is really beautifully decorated. Not too bright but pleasantly cozy. There was also good volume for conversations. Cocktails were all delicious at typical prices. Unfortunately I can't say anything about the food, but we'll definitely try it soon. Anyway, it looked promising. We'd love to come back.

Bad service and already outrageously high prices, so I took it for granted not to tip. The girl then imagined (visibly angry) that she was enriching herself with 11 euros in change. Luckily, my friends and I were very observant and unfortunately had to expose her. As a consumer, I really don't have to put up with all the rip-offs when the price-performance ratio is no longer right.

Another Caipirinha on the way home, nice location and friendly service.

Fantastic view of Freiburg. We got a seat right away, right with the view. The Aperol Spritz and homemade juice were very good. But even as a sun lover, I have to say that they had cleared the parasols a little too early in the year. Still "a must visit" in Freiburg.

Great Place, Great Atmosphere, delicious food!! ♥️🔥

Very good food in the restaurant. Attentive service there too. Great view of the old town from the roof terrace. In the afternoon, however, the service seemed quite lackluster.

A great location at a lofty height with an outstanding view of Freiburg's city center

Fantastic view of the old town and the Freiburg Cathedral. Food ok and harmonious for the price. Service ok but not exactly warm.

Staff very unfriendly, we had a reservation in the bar area for a stag party, but were seated in the middle of the restaurant where it was far too loud. Not recommended!

Cuando para la cena y tuvimos una buena comida de calidad. Gran vista de la Catedral, pero lo más importante es que la comida, el servicio y el ambiente eran muy buenos. Me encantaría ir de nuevo.

...just from the “location” point of view, it’s a place that is absolutely worth visiting

Huge wasp problem; probably a nest the owners won't remove. Impossible to enjoy a meal here.

Nice location ruined by wasps and alcoholics. Two stars for the bit of mediocre "food" I could eat.

Great rooftop bar next to the cathedral. Chilled lounge corners with sun protection. Very good price/performance ratio. The best sweet potato fries ever. Totally cross!!! Full marks.

The Pornstar cocktail was 🔥 We always asked ourselves where we could get delicious cocktails in Freiburg, but didn't do a lot of research. But then we decided on “at least a nice view” (in case cocktails don’t taste good). Thank you for surprising us ❤️

Great terrace, friendly service Just great

Wir hatten uns für einen bekannten alkoholischen Longdrink entschieden, der am Ende nur aus Wasser und Eis bestand. Der Barmann war sichtlich betrunken. Das Gleiche gilt für seinen Managerin, der ebenfalls frech und arrogant war. Die Kellnerin brachte uns das Restgeld und behielt das Trinkgeld selbst (hat die Summe selbst "aufgerundet"), ohne unser Einverständnis. Unglaublich. Die Toiletten waren unanständig, schmutzig, verstopft, voller Papier auf den Boden. Nie wieder!

On the weekend we decided on a well-known alcoholic long drink, which in the end only consisted of water and ice. The bartender was visibly drunk. The same goes for his manager who was also rude and arrogant. The waitress kept the tip without our consent. The toilet is indecent, dirty, clogged and full of paper on the floor. Never again!

Lunch in a privileged location in the city

I've been there a couple of evenings to enjoy the view and the cocktails, and I wasn't disappointed. The place can be crowded and the prices are premium for Freiburg, but I enjoyed both evenings I spent there. The service was welcoming and fast enough considering how busy the rooftop was. I think it's a perfect place to take a girl on a date! Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to try the restaurant, maybe next time. I still totally recommend the rooftop bar!

Great view over Freiburg. Delicious cocktails, cozy atmosphere.

There is no view like this anywhere in the city center. Only the prices and the staff leave something to be desired.

Always a pleasure - the most beautiful rooftop bar in Freiburg.

You pay for the view (and the good cocktails)

We were looking forward to a relaxing evening as the ambience and the much-vaunted roof terrace sounded promising. Unfortunately, our expectations were essentially disappointed. When we entered the almost empty restaurant, we immediately noticed the passive unfriendliness of the staff. The greeting was distant and throughout our time there we were addressed inappropriately as "Madame" or "Seniorita" several times, which felt more like a condescending gesture. When we placed our order, the staff repeatedly made unpleasant comments, especially when it came to simple extra requests. For example, the request to receive regular fries instead of sweet potato fries was met with visible annoyance. This lack of service orientation continued throughout the evening. Despite the fact that the restaurant was almost empty, we didn't feel well looked after and felt like no one really wanted to make time for us. The food itself was rather mediocre. Unfortunately, the steak we ordered was far too raw and tough. The quality was disproportionate to the price we paid for it. Another aspect we would like to mention is that the toilets are located in the restaurant. Since the roof terrace was busy, many guests came from there to the restaurant to use the toilets. This sometimes led to considerable noise, as some of these guests were apparently heavily intoxicated and were partying loudly in a lively mood. This added to the unpleasant atmosphere in the restaurant when you actually wanted to have a pleasant evening. All in all our visit was a disappointing experience. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend the restaurant due to the poor service and mediocre food. When we are in Freiburg, we will visit a different restaurant next time.

We were very lucky and got a nice spot with a view. We were served very nicely. Great team this evening! The food and drinks came quickly and were very tasty. We would like to come back, but unfortunately we were just passing through.

On our visit to this beautiful city we stopped to have a drink mid-afternoon on a terrace located on the roof of the Skajo restaurant. From there you can enjoy a spectacular view of Freiburg. It offers 360° panoramic views in a relaxed and very pleasant atmosphere. Apart from other drinks, we ordered a very typical drink from the area called Hugo and contains sparkling wine, mango juice, elderflower syrup, lime and mint. It is very refreshing and digestive. On very hot days there are sprinklers through which a cool mist comes out, which is appreciated. Please note that the terrace is only open when the weather is good.

The staff are incredibly polite, professional, fast and friendly. Really good and happy again and again

We were there with our five small children and the staff was simply top notch. Understanding, quick, very friendly and accommodating. Thank you very much

We just wanted something to drink. Nice, friendly service. thank you

Great view over Freiburg city center and a very appealing ambience. The prices are adjusted accordingly. What really bothers you is the unfriendly and uncaring service.

It’s beautiful on the rooftop. You can oversee Freiburg. The staff was super nice and the food was delicious. Highly recommend

Great ambience with a view of the cathedral, very friendly and accommodating service. Thank you very much, it was very nice again.

Nice place at altitude you have a nice view of the city

Very great view of the cathedral, located on the 5th floor

Not recommended 😡👎 and I repeat "DON'T GO"

Don't go, only small poorly poured beers at €4.20 and if you pay by card there is a surcharge! Tourist trap. AVOID

Wonderful view, from the roof terrace over Freiburg the view of the cathedral is particularly impressive. The food is good, the kitchen is highly recommended. There is a wide selection of drinks (especially cocktails) & dishes. Please note that the selection on the roof terrace is limited. There was no special offer for vegans. Hot food is only available at certain times. The service was very friendly & helpful. The price was expensive but it was worth it for the view. Cards & cash payment is possible. It is disabled friendly. The music choice was also good.

Service with colorful hair is very unfriendly, wine tastes terrible, it doesn't work at all!

Great view & atmosphere. Attentive service, very good cocktails & snacks
