Trödler zur Burgschenke in Esslingen am Neckar

We shared the platter for 2 and it was outstanding. The fortress is spectacular for a wonderful meal. Would definitely return.

Patrick was hospitable and amazing. The atmosphere is picturesque and the service was great. The food was tasty and the beer was crisp. I will definitely be coming back.

Patric was a great server and made it very enjoyable. Food was very good, typical swabisch. However, the atmosphere was amazing. As was the view. Highly recommended.

Nice atmosphere… The price and performance are very good… the entire service is friendly and attentive… I always enjoy visiting this flea market with my Kessler regulars…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Charming secondhand goods, great views, & excellent food. The secondhand shop at the Burgschenke impresses with lovingly selected items, a magnificent view of the castle, and a cuisine that pleasantly surprises. A place you'll gladly return to.

Great atmosphere, fast service, home-style food.

Very nice ambiance, friendly staff, and good food. We didn't like the fact that we had to wait almost an hour for the food. However, it was delicious and the service was good. We had made a reservation in advance as part of a small group and were able to sit outside for a while. Later, the staff offered us a comfortable table inside. We liked that.

Thank you for the wonderful evening. The grill buffet was great, warm welcome and service, we felt at home. Gladly again.

Very nice restaurant with a great view! Terrace with olive trees, southern flair! Interior furnishings are absolutely stylish. Staff very friendly and flexible. Absolutely great!

Ungreundlichkeit beim Toilettengang als außenstehender vom Park. Zufällig der Chef vor der Tür und gleich 1 Euro kassiert! Keine spezielle Toilettenfrau. Nur die müssen bezahlen die er dann zufällig sieht. Habe kein Problem mit bezahlen für die Toilette, aber dann auf eine freundliche Art und Weise .

I'm thrilled with the new look. Simply WOW. The food is incredibly good. The service is also great. Highly recommended. From now on, as often as possible...

Our visit to Trödle was a complete success! The service was warm, attentive and pleasantly reserved - you can immediately tell that people work here with passion. From a culinary point of view, the absolute highlight was the Esslinger Pfänle for two: perfectly fried meat, spicy sauces, lovingly prepared vegetables - a real taste explosion! The portion was more than generous and ideal for sharing. You can taste the quality and freshness of every ingredient. The stylish and cozy ambience rounded off the evening. One thing is certain for us: The Trödle is a real insider tip in the region - we will definitely come back!

This is crazy: The service only professionals at work, which is very, very good! As a restaurateur, I can judge the food simply as a poem! Waiting time is simply very short Keep it up and I'll come more often than 3 times a month

Very, very good restaurant, top location with a very nice atmosphere. However, the service with very good expertise is even better. Simply recommended, I haven't eaten as well as here in a very long time. Only recommended!

Everything was great! Very friendly staff and a beautiful view. I felt completely comfortable – absolutely recommended!”

Cheap taste for exorbitant price. This is punishable. If only it had at least been a nice cappuccino, it should have been treated once. But €5.10 for a cheap cappuccino? Not with me. E-mail remains unanswered, phone call is blocked - advert comes. Because it's disgusting to remove people, and I think the boss feels this burden because he wasn't able to offer a solution on site today - rather he was nervous and a little out of it.

Round birthday with 48 people in the Ritterstube with 3-course buffet was very successful. The food was very good, rich and beautifully prepared. The service was very attentive and courteous. My guests were very impressed. The ambience is great.

Nice atmosphere and very friendly and helpful service. Has a great location with a view of Esslingen and the Alb. The restaurant is tastefully decorated and has historical items. We come back to the large terrace.

Super cozy atmosphere and a beautiful outdoor area. Top service and good home cooking.

Super attentive service and great service!

Always friendly staff and very good food, the furnishings and the location in the castle make it a real adventure. Come again

Very good place to go for lovers of Swabian cuisine. The service is very friendly and attentive and leaves nothing to be desired. You can endure it very well both indoors and outdoors on the beautiful terrace. Definitely worth a visit when you're at the castle!

Looks very nice, really nice staff, we had a great time celebrating there

Always good here... 👍 Terrace and perfect inside...

Super tasty food and reasonable prices with a great view of the Neckar Valley. Simply perfect all around.

We celebrated my aunt's 70th birthday there. Great and impressive ambience, the service was excellent. Very nice, helpful and nice staff. The food was sooo good and delicious! We had the pan for 2 people - a bit of everything - 🤤 even though we were really full, we couldn't leave any spaetzle left because it was so delicious. We will definitely come again. The terrace was very inviting and just lovely to enjoy in the summer! There is also a playground for the children right next door, so they can keep themselves busy.

Great view, top quality, very nice and quick service 👏

Super nice location and very friendly service. We felt completely comfortable. The terrace is equipped with blankets so you can spend time outside. Thank you for the lovely evening. When it got cold we went in and were immediately offered a seat.

The service was great, the food was incredibly good. The restaurant inside looks really great, as does the beer garden outside. I felt really good, so much so that I stayed seated for quite a while after eating. I can only recommend the Trödler restaurant!! Price-performance ratio is great! I'll be back.

Good restaurant with ambience. Courteous service. Good cuisine.

The food and drinks are really great! The employees are all very nice and the view and the ambience are very nice!!! I will come again

Owner very friendly and nice, food was delicious, can only recommend it!

It tasted very tasty and the service was great! The view is really beautiful and the ambience is very relaxed. Will come again

So for the price with this wonderful view there really can't be anything better, really very good!

Great restaurant!!! Great staff, and great food! The owner is also super nice and takes care of his guests too

Great shop with an incredible ambience, an outstanding view and friendly service that ensures that everything is on offer. Food was great anyway!

Best restaurant and service that we had, we came 2 in a week. Everything is perfect 👌👌👌🍾 the staff is amazing

We had a wonderful evening. The atmosphere is cozy and stylish, the staff incredibly attentive and friendly. The menu offers a great selection and every dish was a real taste experience. Particularly noteworthy. The quality of the ingredients and the attention to detail are really noticeable here. A big compliment to the entire team – we will definitely be back! Absolute recommendation for anyone who wants to enjoy good food in a pleasant atmosphere.

Five of us were there spontaneously on Saturday evening. Everything was perfect! You rarely see such a great atmosphere! The location unbeatable! Really good German cuisine and the service was also quick and attentive. There was even a round of schnapps of your choice on the house 😁 Definitely recommended!

A beautiful place with good food and drinks and friendly people!

We celebrated our wedding at Trödler and I have to say it was sensational. Compliments to the kitchen and the sensational service, which everyone scored with competence and professionalism. Thank you for the unforgettable evening. You have new regular guests.

We were there for dinner today... From the service to the hosts to the food, it was a complete success. You can't say more than... It grabs you, hugs you and gives you a kiss...Thank you for the wonderful evening..

I had the pleasure of visiting this restaurant and I absolutely love it. From the friendly and attentive service to the excellent quality of the food – everything is just right here.

Great shop, great staff, I really liked everything hah, highly recommended!!

Very tasty German cuisine! The staff is super friendly and the ambience and the view cannot be beat. An absolute recommendation!

Great cuisine and super friendly service staff

Super laden super Mitarbeiter alles tip top eine empfehlung definitiv werde aufjedenfall noch öfter kommen mit meiner familie!!

Unfriendly and overwhelmed staff. In addition, the outdoor area doesn't seem particularly hygienic - but that was partly due to the sweaty waiter. Especially in the food sector you should pay attention to a neat appearance. For the price, it's definitely something for tourists/walk-in customers, but the uninformed can be fooled into at least a one-off visit. Fortunately, there is really good Swabian cuisine in Esslingen's city center that you can try. I also find the positive reviews here compared to the 3.7 on Tripadvisor strange. Let's see how long my rating lasts ;)

A stylishly prepared table, excellent food and wonderful service... my big birthday was a complete success thanks to RestaurantTrödler! Thanks so much!

Wenn man kein Bio- Deutscher ist, wird man hier nicht gerne gesehen und wird mit respektlosem Personal konfrontiert, das mit abfälligen Gesten kommuniziert. Klassisches Beispiel für unsere Neidgesellschaft. Außerdem machte die Terrasse einen schmutzigen und verwahrlosten Eindruck.

Great food, great service, great restaurant, I'll definitely be back!!!

Great view, came hungry and left super satisfied and with a full stomach. I can only recommend it.

The ambience is very nice, the service is great and the staff is absolutely accommodating and very friendly. The food is tasty and the portion size is just right. Very comfortable 😃

Very, very attentive and polite service. The potato salad is homemade and gets a straight A in school grades even for spoiled Swabian palates. 😀😋 Beautiful view over Esslingen and the Neckar valley.

Lassen Sie sich von den schönen Bildern auf der Homepage nicht beeindrucken. Hier sieht es ganz anders aus. Wenn man den Chef darauf anspricht, dann wird er richtig unverschämt und pampig und beleidigt einen auf einer anderen Sprache. Einfach nur Unterirdisch! Das Essen hat uns auch nicht geschmeckt und an dem Glas meiner Frau war noch der Lippenstift von jemand anderem dran. Einfach nur Ekelhaft. Aber auch diese Kritik hat der Chef nur arrogant abgewunken. Echt schade was aus dem Trödler geworden ist. Wir waren immer gerne hier, aber da kann man definitiv nicht mehr hin gehen. Schade!

We had a wonderful evening at the Trödler zur Burgschenke. The food was simply outstanding – fresh, tasty and perfectly prepared. Every course was a pleasure! We were particularly impressed by the attentive and friendly service. The staff was warm, professional and always available without being intrusive. You really feel welcome here as a guest. The atmosphere in the restaurant is cozy and inviting – perfect for a relaxed evening. We will definitely be back and can only warmly recommend Trödler to Burgschenke!

The food was very tasty, very nice attentive waiters, the owner was also very nice. The ambience is nice. Conclusion: I would love to come back. Thank you for the great evening 👌😊

An absolute highlight! The restaurant not only impresses with excellent German cuisine, but also with a breathtaking view. Whether inside or on the terrace – the atmosphere is simply perfect to enjoy. The dishes are lovingly prepared and taste like a dream. There is also a great selection of drinks and very attentive service. If you want to combine good food with a wonderful view, this is the right place for you. We'll definitely be back!

Great food. Very friendly staff and owner. Gladly again.

Beautiful location with a wonderful view, especially in the evening. Clear menu with Swabian specialties, everything tasted wonderful. Definitely come back!

This restaurant is an absolute insider tip for lovers of German cuisine! The dishes are not only excellently prepared, but also prepared with great attention to detail - from traditional classics to seasonal specialties. Particularly noteworthy is the incredibly warm and lovable owner, who greets every guest personally and creates a real feel-good atmosphere with his warm manner. A place where you feel completely welcome and are always happy to come back!

Had a very nice evening with very tasty food and a super attentive host.

I have to get something going! My visit to the Trödler zur Burgschenke in Esslingen was simply fantastic! The food was excellent - every bite was a pleasure. I was particularly impressed by the service. I can't remember ever being served so kindly and attentively. I can only warmly recommend the Burgschenke and am already looking forward to the next visit! See you soon and thank you again!

The Trödler Burgschenke restaurant is a real highlight for anyone who wants to combine good food with a breathtaking view. As soon as you enter, you can feel the special charm of the historical surroundings - the tavern is located directly in an impressive castle, which gives the visit a very special flair. The great view from the terrace is simply unbeatable. You can enjoy a wide view over the picturesque landscape, which is especially unforgettable at sunset. Whether you sit inside or outside, the atmosphere is cozy and authentic, perfect for a relaxed meal. The food itself impresses with regional specialties and loving preparation. The menu offers a varied selection and the service is friendly and attentive. Overall, Schenke Castle is a wonderful place that impresses with great views, historical charm and a unique ambience. Definitely worth a visit!

The waiter was incredibly personable. The restaurant is also very stylish and decorated in keeping with the name. Definitely worth a visit.

I am fascinated by the food and it is one of the best German restaurants I have been to. It was great to talk to the nice staff who even understood your personal needs. All in all, it is worth a visit and fully recommended.

Great view, friendly service and a nice ambience, especially the outdoor area! We always enjoy coming here. The food and drinks are great, as is the price/performance ratio. The service is very friendly and attentive. To visit the castle, it's worth twice as much to go to the castle tavern to find a second-hand shop. Clear recommendation!

We were up here at the castle for a surprise 70th birthday. Everything was very nicely prepared. The surprise was a great success. The food was fantastic and the service was courteous and simply great. Many thanks to the whole team from the cook, service to the boss. Really great. Always my pleasure. Best regards

He refused to allow us to use his toilet even though the public toilets were closed. The "boss" (as he called himself) rudely sent us out with "diggga goes" and also rejected our offer to pay something for the toilet. He found it more acceptable that we pee wildly in front of the restaurant🤷🏼‍♂️

Top food and super friendly service, plus a medieval atmosphere 10/10 we'll be happy to come back. 🙏👌👌👌

This extremely romantic restaurant is located in the picturesque setting of a castle complex and impresses with its wonderful atmosphere and inviting ambience. Particularly noteworthy is the beautiful view of the castle's inner courtyard. The dishes were not only presented in an aesthetically pleasing manner, but also demonstrated fresh preparation and loving hand. Served warm, the food impressed with its extremely good taste. In addition, the portions were generous, so that the price-performance ratio was completely convincing. What should also be highlighted is the extraordinary attentiveness and friendliness of the staff, whose excellent service ensured that the waiting time was only short. This experience was a complete success and made us feel extremely comfortable. Our heartfelt thanks go to the entire team. Conclusion: A culinary experience for all senses.

Unfortunately, the wrong inserts were received, but they were delivered quickly and without any problems. Good home cooking. Toilet in the basement, bad for people with walking difficulties, you also need a code that you get in the restaurant, so go back up the stairs :-(

The service was unprofessional, and the lack of courtesy was shocking. Instead of addressing our concerns or even basic pleasantries, we were met with dismissive attitudes that left us feeling unwelcome. We are definitely never going back!

I had lunch with Korean friends. The castle squadrons have been fired up nicely. The food was very tasty and filling. You sit well and the service is very helpful.

Great here! Ritterburg, very good, very good service, really the best beer & solid food :) Even when the house is extremely full, you still get a “private spot” under the roof - awesome! ❤️

Great food, absolutely the best service! How the team treats guests is rarely seen anymore. Always my pleasure! Only recommended!

The entertainment was really good. But don't go hungry. Flädle soup and salad fill you up long before good food arrives. Unfortunately, the jousting buffet no longer has anything to do with knight's food as we knew it. Watery beer and mead on an allotment then round off the menu.

Extremely small portions, but very expensive. Food arrives for a table with a difference of up to half an hour. Not recommended.

Since the change in ownership, many improvements have been noticed compared to before. The entire team is super friendly! Everyone, even the cook, takes time for the guests. The atmosphere (especially in the run-up to Christmas) is wonderful. The large terrace is great in summer and there is a cozy atmosphere inside. The food is a 10 out of 10. We feel very comfortable here and come here regularly to eat. This is also the right place to celebrate special occasions. We look forward to many evenings to come with the new team from the junk dealer at the castle! Keep it up! M. & D.

We went to a junk dealer's on a Saturday evening. Service and food were top. We had a lot of fun and everything was as you would expect a dinner with friends to be.

The worst service I have ever experienced! Unfriendliness, this is your home!

It was empty but we waited 50 min for our food (5 persons) Appetizers were not given earlier but with the main course. The fries and food in general was very oily, the schnitzel was just ok but it looked fried. Kinda expensive if you know the quality of the food. On the good side, you have a great view and the decorations are very cozy inside. Would I visit again? No.

A very nice atmosphere and perfect service. Despite the group size of 12 people, it was quick and very good.

Top service, food really good aaaand!? Big portion. Probably not nice in summer but very nice!

Super tasty… finally another veal cordon blue with very crispy fried potatoes. Service very attentive and friendly. We're already looking forward to summer on the terrace.

Welcoming climate, soft music in the background, kindness of the owner, we came for a snack but we will definitely return for dinner, they have typical cuisine so we can't help but return

Restaurant with a “Château” atmosphere. You are welcomed with a smile and without obligation to speak the language of the country (English recommended for ease if you are frustrated with German) by pleasant and caring staff, present without being intrusive. You can choose whatever you want on the menu, everything is good. Don't hesitate, everything is very good

Ambiance good, service bad, long waiting times, overwhelmed. I had ordered food when all the other guests' food arrived and I was told my food was out and I had to choose another one... that is, everyone had eaten and I waited 15 minutes. It was given incorrectly when paying. The menu was moldy and only stayed there because of the hungry children. Food was generally not good, steak was completely dry, grilled sausage was burnt, was cooked very heavily with flavor enhancers, children didn't eat their food. A complete failure in terms of food and service

Very nice restaurant near the rampart after the few hundred steps to get there. The dishes are very good and very generous. A real treat 😁

Not too expensive, plentiful dishes and excellent service.

As always, super delicious! Nice atmosphere and always friendly staff. Always a pleasure.

We held our wedding there in May 2024 after having eaten there many times and always being completely satisfied! The food was first class, the ambience and service were great, the location, the Uhrigen Castle, is simply great. Food absolutely delicious and definitely worth the money! The staff left nothing to be desired for our wedding! Absolutely recommended! Thank you very much and see you soon!

Great staff, drinks and food came super quickly and the service was great! The highlight was the best roast onion I've had in a long time.

Very tasty and hearty food as well as nice staff. Additionally, the ambience of the interiors and the location contribute to a lovely daytime experience. Would love to come here again.

We had a company event there with around 100 participants. The buffet was good and plentiful, the service was friendly, and the atmosphere was great - a clear recommendation

Neither good nor bad. OK for lunch.

Super friendly service, a really nice atmosphere with an amazing view and very authentic cuisine. Had an onion roast, which I can warmly recommend. I would love to come back.

Very friendly staff and impeccable food. Dog was allowed in too...great...

Very good Swabian restaurant with really excellent service. Overall, a great price/performance ratio in a rustic atmosphere. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

The food was delicious, the service good. We were very satisfied.
