Strate's Brauhaus in Detmold

We were on Hermannsweg and got 2 seats without a reservation on Friday evening thanks to very nice service. The food was very tasty and a thank you to the chef for that.

Fantastic food in a great atmosphere.

What fantastic service! The food is really excellent, the portions are quite filling. But we were really overwhelmed by the service - we haven't been treated so friendly, polite and helpful in a long time. Thank you very much - we will definitely be back! :)

Quite ok but full of old people!

Zünftige Brauwirtschaft mit deftigem und pikanten Essen und geselligen Getränken. Die Angebote waren sehr gut und der historische Innenraum ist mit einigen wohltuenden modernen Elementen wie viel Glas aufgefrischt worden. Die Cocktails gefielen mir ebenfalls sehr gut. Auch die alkoholfreien Getränke waren sehr schmackhaft.

Great restaurant. Great service, nice ambience and very good food. Always happy to be there

The two of us were just there and had some delicious beers, delicious food and it was very nice. If we're in the area again we'll definitely come back. What needs to be emphasized in particular is that the nice young gentleman served us and everyone else well and quickly even though the shop was very full! Our little dog was also allowed in. Thank you for the lovely evening.

Delicious pork knuckle, always good! Beer tastes very good too!

I don't recommend it, the service is not nice, the menu is bad and the atmosphere is terrible

Pork knuckles rubbery and bland, fried potatoes dripping with oil, medallions without taste, beer sauce for both dishes the same and straight from the bag. Beer great

I visited Strate's Brauhaus on January 30, 2025, at around 6:00 p.m. - not during rush hour - and ordered a schnitzel with paprika cream sauce and fries. I was hastily and carelessly served a tiny schnitzel with pre-fried fries, without any trace of paprika cream dressing and the statement that the sauce would come immediately! I waited almost 10 minutes in front of my plate and had to ask twice until the waiter finally brought me a small container with the warmed sauce... I was invited to my previously ordered small beer as an “apology” for the oversight… Later that same evening I got heartburn from eating! This restaurant once had extremely good cuisine and nice service! None of it is left! Just the nice home-style atmosphere and the local beer! Categorically NOT recommended! Really a shame!

The food was really tasty, the service was very friendly and the atmosphere was great! 100% recommendation

I was out and about in Detmold today and then spontaneously discovered this brewery. I have to say it's really cozy. There's delicious beer and food. It's also really easy to go here

As a group of 15 people, we booked our company Christmas party there on December 28th, 2024. Never again!!!!! We had booked at 6:00 p.m. The food came to the table unannounced while half the group was outside. At 10:30 p.m. we were told to order the last round of drinks because they had to clear and refill the counter before the end of the day. At 11:00 p.m. the cash was collected the statement that we could still drink in peace. At 11.30 p.m. we were asked to leave the restaurant because they wanted to refill the bar. The gentleman closed straight away We closed the shop at 11.40pm and went home. Opening hours are until 12.00pm!!!!! You would think that you would be served until shortly before closing time and given something to drink. We all come from retail and serve our customers until closing time. I have never experienced such service and treatment in any store and it's not possible!! !! How can you treat a large company like this and say they have to order their last drinks 1 1/2 hours before closing time?! None of us will be coming back

We had dinner at Strate today with a group of 15 people. It was really great. The food we pre-ordered came very quickly. The service was very attentive and very nice. The restaurant itself is very nicely designed and furnished. A place to feel good and I'm definitely not there for the last time. Thank you for the lovely evening

The schnitzel wasn't a brewery schnitzel for me, I've eaten much better. Very small portion for a brewery. Dessert was absolutely delicious, but unfortunately it was forgotten in the kitchen and we had to wait almost an hour for it.

Very tasty and cozy. Nice people and fair prices.

Schönes Gaststätte mit leckerem Essen und freundlichen Personal

Nice restaurant, nice service and my personal highlight: Detmolder beer apple 🤩 A smooth 10/10!

The food was good, unfortunately a bit little. Service very nice and accommodating. What also justifies the deduction of one star in my opinion is the waiting time of around 1 hour.

Das Personal war nett, freundlich und sehr aufmerksam. Das Essen war geschmacklich und von der Menge her sehr gut. Gerne wieder.

Das Brauhaus liegt schön in der Innenstadt von Detmold. Es war sehr voll, daher schlechter Service und wir warteten auf das Essen 1:15 Stunde. Beide Gerichte waren einfach nicht gut…Bratkartoffeln waren pappig und Fleisch trocken…Schade!

A must in Detmold. Staff courteous and friendly. Food tastes good. Beer as you know it and are used to it

Wenn man für 20.30h bucht, sollte man doch spätestens um 21.00 h essen? Und nicht erst um 21.45und das Hauptgericht um 22.00? Warum bekommen die für 20.30h nur noch eine abgespeckte Karte? Organisation ist alles. Tut mir leid 2022 war es um Welten besser!!!

Ein sehr gut besuchten Brauhaus mit ansprechendem Ambiente.

Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich, das Essen ( leider wurde die kleine Karte im Laufe des Abends sehr stark reduziert ) sehr geschmackvoll. Wir hatten eine sehr lange Wartezeit, nur 2 Stunden den Tisch reservieren können. Das Essen kam erst nach 1 Stunde und 20 Minuten. Insgesamt für einen Sylvesterabend aus meiner Sicht nicht gut durchdacht

Am Sylvester Abend haben wir gut Gegessen und haben uns am Ambiente erfreut und mit dem Personal gescherzt. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder

Wonderfully rustic and cozy atmosphere. The staff is very nice and helpful in fulfilling guests' every wish. Four of us arrived there unannounced - despite the fact that it was full house, we were able to get a place. Thank you for that...

It was just great. The service was very nice and friendly. We both had the ribs...these were super tender and very tasty. The portions are very large. Really recommended

Tolles Essen, tolles Personal, tolles Ambiente... sehr zu empfehlen

Sehr schönes Ambiente. Das Weihnachtsessen und der Service waren sehr gut und das Essen wurde auch schnell serviert. Wir werden demnächst noch einmal wiederkommen um die normale Karte auszuprobieren. Es war ein rundherum gelungener Abend.

You come in and feel very well looked after. Very friendly and the food was very delicious. Will definitely come back

Guten Tag. Wir sind erschienen, weil wir so wie sonst auch eine Haxe essen wollten. Wir haben nicht damit gerechnet, dass Weihnachten eine andere Karte auf dem Tisch liegt. Natürlich haben wir dafür Verständnis, dass zu Weihnachten weniger Personal beschäftigt wird. Vielen Dank. Mit freundlichen Grüßen, F. Schlüter

Eins vorweg. Das Essen war gut mit Luft nach oben! Wir hatten einen Tisch für 3 Personen ab 15 Uhr reserviert und das 5 Wochen im voraus. Hier ist noch zu erwähnen das es der 24. Dezember war. Wir waren pünktlich und freuten uns auf ein leckeres weihnachtliches Essen. Der uns zugewiesene Tisch war nicht sauber und bei der Bestellung waren einige Gerichte nicht mehr bestellbar. Nach 50 Minuten Wartezeit kam dann das Essen. Die Teller hatten anscheinend angerichtet für eine ganze Weile warm gestanden den die Soße hat schon eine Haut und die Enten Keule war schon ziemlich trocken. Die Service kräfte hatten aber auch ziemlich viel Arbeit, denn das Lokal war auch bis auf den letzten Platz besetzt. Nach dem Essen wollten wir uns noch einen Nachtisch gönnen was aber bei Nachfrage nicht mehr möglich war, da die Küche schon seit 16 Uhr geschlossen war. Ich hätte mir gewünscht das so etwas bei unserer Bestellung mit Erwähnung gefunden hätte. Für das nächste mal weiß ich zumindestens welche Fragen im Vorfeld angesprochen werden müssen. Ich bin der Meinung, wer am 24. Dezember sein Lokal auf macht sollten doch zumindest dafür sorgen das die Qualität stimmt sonst bleibt ein fader Beigeschmack im Gedächtnis zurück.

Service war super, das Essen kalt, trotz Reklamation wieder kalt, so schlecht war das Essen dort noch nie

Wir haben heute vor dem Besuch der Abendvorstellung im nahegelegenem Landestheater eine Kleinigkeiit von der saisonalen Karte gegessen. Der Aufenthalt ist stressfrei verlaufen weil die Bedienungen , wie immer, freunlich und flott waren und das rustkale aber leckere Essen kurze Zeit nach der Bestellung serviert wurde.

We sat close to the door, which meant there was a lot of traffic at our table. The food was very tasty. Service also great.

Great brewery, attentive staff. Reservation is recommended

Traditional gastronomy with home-brewed beer.

Tolles Restaurant in einem alten Fachwerkhaus. Exzellenter Service, geschmacklich und ansprechende Speisen, köstliches Bier

Top Service, sehr entgegenkommend. Hatten für 4 Personen reserviert. Spontan 2 Kinder dazu. Kurzfristig umdisponiert, sehr flexibel trotz für das Personal eine stressige Zeit... Bedienung sehr freundlich, Essen Top. Ein Lob an den Koch....

Gladly again and again! The service was quick, the food was good, and the prices were also completely reasonable.

Es war ein sehr schöner Abend mit Gästen aus den USA! Wir haben es sehr genossen! Sehr gutes Essen, eine sehr aufmerksame Bedienung und leckeres Bier! Absolut empfehlenswert!!!!

The brewery is a restaurant with a rustic flair. The selection in the beer range is great, because after all it is somehow part of the Strate Bauerei. The menu fits the concept with its offering of “good home cooking”. However, faithfulness to the concept should not be a dogma. For the long-established Lipper, the cabbage sausage is certainly part of the kale and the Lippe liver sausage is part of the Pickert, but unfortunately there is no main course for people who do not eat animal foods. Although there are one or two vegetarian dishes, the only thing that remains vegan is a salad. And there isn't a single meatless dish on the kale seasonal menu. Unfortunately, the waitress left the empty dishes on the small table several times. Since the outer door was constantly open at temperatures around zero degrees, we sat in an unpleasant draft.

Very nice service, great ambience, wide and very fine selection of beer, very tasty food with seasonal dishes too.

Very nice shop. The best fried potatoes. My waitress was a bit annoyed, but I would chalk that up to a “bad day”. The rest of the group was super nice. Portions seem small at first, but it's definitely worth it. Large selection of beer.

Very friendly service, good food and nice atmosphere.

Nice brewery and local bar of the B Company of the Detmold Rifle Society

Es war ein gelungener Abend! Immer gerne wieder!!!

Very nice restaurant and atmosphere. However, the quality of the food remains mediocre at best. Detmold beer is mildly drinkable and many varieties are very similar in basic tone. The flavors are very subtle and reserved. The service is friendly but cold.

Very nice lunch. Excellent friendly service and also child friendly. We'd love to come back. Greetings from the Rhineland

Generous portions, taste really good, nice location. The staff could be a little nicer, but still within limits.

Typisches Brauhausessen in sehr guter Qualität. Für uns rund herum ein gelungener Termin.

The service was a bit slow, the food was ok. Nice ambience.

The food was nothing special and the portions are really small!!! The service was annoyed and we didn't feel welcome

There could be a larger selection of vegetarian dishes. When I asked whether the Pickert was also available as a vegetarian option, the answer was that I could just leave the liver sausage. There is still room for improvement.

We were guests on Saturday afternoon with 4 people. Even though it was relatively full, we received friendly and quick service. The beer is simply delicious and all four dishes were what you would expect in a brewery.

Delicious home-style food in a nice atmosphere.

I'm in rehab in Bad Salzuflen and took a trip to Externsteine ​​and Detmold on Saturday. Around midday I was hungry and I went straight to the brewery. I hadn't made a reservation, but was still assigned a small table. The selection on the menu is relatively large. My choice was the baked grilled knuckle with fried potatoes and sauerkraut. The order was taken promptly and served quickly. I can say about the grill knuckle: In terms of size and taste, it was what you would expect in a brewery. It was sufficient and tasted good too. Maybe a few more fried potatoes could have been served. But these were nice and crispy and 😋 tasty. I can easily recommend the Detmolder Brauhaus. The waitresses were quick and friendly

Strate, THE Detmold beer. You have to try it. Really delicious.

Did what we promised ourselves! Very happy again! Service top!

spontaneously got a table for two. Service was nice, food was delicious. I don't like beer (I actually liked it anyway) People talk very loudly Desserts are 10/10. Table decoration is rustic Why cherry beer not in 0.5?? LG

Listen to me. The ribs are a 10/10 with fries and, on a connoisseur basis, a Detmold Pilsner Food came quickly Service was a bit hectic (but that's understandable with so many customers) overall awesome load would love to come back (cherry beer 0.5 please)

Food bad, not fresh, schnitzel hard, price/performance is not right here! Unfriendly, stressed service who wanted to take away half of the eaten plate. There were lots of tripping hazards throughout the house and it was far too dark. The only thing that was okay for us was the beer!

Our absolute favorite, very nice team, food was delicious, every meeting there was a great pleasure. The construction site in front of the door will be history again at some point...

Delicious food, typical German dishes and delicious local beer. Upstairs there were cozy places (a bit warm) and friendly service. No fuss, just fun!

Great ambience, very friendly and attentive staff and the Lippe dish is quite unusual, but highly recommended

Went to the Brauhaus Essen for lunch today. It was very good and I can only recommend it.

On a short trip to Detmold we wanted to go out for dinner in the evening and chose the brewery. Even though we were there shortly after opening, it was difficult to get a seat. You should therefore definitely reserve in advance, especially if you have limited mobility, as some of the places can only be reached via stairs. We were warmly welcomed by the service and our dog was also given a bowl of water upon request. This can certainly be improved. Local drinks and an extensive selection of dishes left nothing to be desired. The orders were served quickly and the food was very tasty. Definitely recommended.

The quality of the food can be described as impeccable, but unfortunately the size of the schnitzel left something to be desired. Service and ambience are also impeccable! Worth recommending, the schnitzel could still be bigger, I'm still hungry.

Alles in allem ist das Strate zu empfehlen! Entsprechend der Qualität und Ambiente ist es auch immer gut besucht - eine Reservierung daher sehr zu empfehlen. Getränke und Essen schmeckt sehr gut - ein echtes Brauhaus eben. Leider ist der Service für mein Empfinden eher überfordert, recht langsam, nicht wirklich freundlich und unaufmerksam! Das Team könnte deutlich mehr Umsatz machen und am Ende des Tages auch mehr Trinkgeld.

Gute deutsche Küche, geschmacklich sehr gut bei gutem Preis - Leistungsverhältnis, die Einrichtung ist geschmackvoll dem Namen angepasst und das Personal ist sehr freundlich, ist auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen

Very good, coherent concept. This is how it should be in a brewery. Good selection of beer (best quality) and the perfectly prepared dishes to go with it!! Also very nice and attentive service. Great, thank you and keep it up!! 👍

Cozy restaurant with delicious beers

Immer wieder schön dort. Bedienung sehr nett. Alles super

Very cool location! Good beer and delicious food! 👍😊

Good brewery food, good service, cozy atmosphere.

Tolle Bedienung, Essen war schnell am Tisch und hat uns sehr gut geschmeckt. Gern wieder

Der Service ist perfekt, die Speisen relativ gut und frisch. Bei der Schweinshaxe muss ich bemäkeln, dass das Fleisch ohne der Kruste außen komplett sehr trocken war. Dafür Abzug in der B-Bote, das geht besser! ✌🏼🤠

We really enjoyed our stay and dinner after visiting the monument :-)

Nice staff, delicious beer and the food is also recommended

Great food & beer + good service ! Knockle of pork absolutely no 1 👍

Top address in Detmold, will come back. Very nice staff, very good service

Super delicious food. Large portions. Very nice staff. Highly recommended and gladly again. Thank you

Super nice staff, also very attentive! The food was super tasty and the portions were large. The ambience is suitable for a brewery and at the same time kept modern. Very happy again and highly recommended!

Good atmosphere, nice service, and real German food (and drinks 😄). We enjoyed!

Waren gestern spontan zu unserem Hochzeitstag essen . Bedienung sehr nett , Ambiente sehr hübsch , essen grandios . Wir kommen wieder

Great food, friendly service and very pleasant beer garden. The children's portions are highly recommended!

Worst Snitzel of 2024. One from the supermarket tastes even better

Great German food and beer. Nothing more needs to be said.

A great experience in terms of ambience and cuisine. Gladly again!

Waited over an hour for food, got no compensation. The excuse was that there were a lot of guests there. Unthinkable for a simple salad.

Short story: - reserved and ordered, but the food took more than 1 hour - asked for some sort of compensation, was given shots (half of us didn’t even want alcohol) - manager’s apology was more full of excuses than a sincere apology - all things aside, the food is also just VERY average - P.S. I see the exact same story in other comments here = no improvement Long story: (I don’t even usually write reviews) We reserved, sat down, ordered. Our food didn’t come out for a long time so we checked with the waiter several times. The waiter told us to wait 10 more minutes. More than 10 minutes passed so we wanted to just leave, and just then, the food came out. We asked for some sort of compensation as we had waited for more than an hour for our food. The waiter said he would “check the time we ordered” to see if it really took more than an hour. As we were eating, some shots were given to us. When we were done and paying, we asked what our compensation would be and the waiter said the shots were on the house. That was neither a considerate nor a proper compensation as two out of the three who got the food late didn’t even drink alcohol. We asked to talk to the manager (boss) and the waiter said that he’s the boss. Instead of giving a sincere apology the manager started listing reasons of why they were late (the exact same reasons that some of these other comments are telling=same excuses all the time). He said that the food took around 40minutes and that that’s normal for any restaurant, but no, I checked the time the food came out and it took definitely more than an hour. Honestly, things can happen at any restaurant, but what makes me so pissed about this place was the way they dealt with the situation and their attitude. Plus their food is literally just average. NEVER EVER COMING BACK AGAIN. I hope you value your customers better and learn how to treat them with respect😊

We were in the restaurant with a large group (20 people), the food was pre-ordered and it was checked again on site. However, three meals were not delivered. The flippant waiters didn't notice. Delivery was only made after repeated requests. The payment request also had to be expressed several times before it was completed after 20 minutes. We sat in a great atmosphere and the food was also good.

Es war ein toller Abend in einer einzigartigen Atmosphäre…. Im Service besonders hervorzuheben ist Der Mitarbeiter Carsten… Jederzeit wieder!

Beautiful brewery in the heart of Detmold!

Excellent food and very good service.

Alles hat gepasst! Super Essen, absolut aufmerksame, aber nicht aufdringliche Bedienung! Wer in Detmold ist, sollte unbedingt dort Essen! Das Bier aus der Brauerei Strate ist auch super, verschiedene Sorten - da findet jeder was!

Cozy atmosphere just too many stairs

We spent a nice Saturday lunch in Strate’s Brauhaus with Lippe Pickert and the beers of the year.
