Venga Kevelaer in Kevelaer

Had dinner there on a Monday evening. Sat pretty near the entrance which is very far away from the counter and kitchen. Accordingly, there were few waiters walking around the area. We were able to order quite quickly and then had to wait a good 50 minutes for our food, + another drink (0.2l Coco Cola €3.90). Unfortunately, my burger had cooled down for a long time. In the end, four of us had to pay around €100 for a relatively small meal and two soft drinks each. Unfortunately, the fries were quite unsuitable for the dish and were not seasoned or salted at all. So essentially: - quite expensive - a lot of money for food and drinks of a quality that was okay.

Can't judge the food because we weren't served! The staff just looked at us, saw that we were physically disabled and simply walked past. This went on for almost 1.5 hours. Then we left this terrible place. As a disabled person you will not be served there. The worst restaurant we have ever visited. Why not hang a sign on your front door that says “DISABLED PEOPLE ARE NOT SERVED HERE!” Actually. -5 stars

We went to Venga-Kevelaer twice for breakfast. Great the first time. Service friendly. The buffet was constantly replenished. At the table we always asked if everything was ok. Used plates were cleared away promptly. Coffee was constantly being replenished. Buffet selection is good, small portions, 4-5 different rolls. The second time I had the feeling that we weren't wanted. Friendliness max. grade 4. Buffet was almost empty for 15 minutes. No rolls when you arrived, you had to get your own coffee every time. Empty plates were not cleared away. Buffet selection was similar to the first time but unfortunately we never saw everything. 2 types of bread rolls. There should also be bacon, but probably not on this day. The quality of the food is good. I hope it was a one-off mistake. The main problem was due to the condition, listless and disorganized. We are absolute breakfast fans. Breakfast times are great. I think the ambience and the view of the brine garden are very nice.

Everything perfect, good food for a reasonable price. Nice staff

Breakfast buffet was very varied, fresh and there was something for everyone. Service was very friendly and accommodating. Atmosphere nice and quiet, you felt very comfortable. We'd love to come back!

It's really the best thing there is in Kevelaer, always happy,

I've now eaten my second burger 🍔 there and was thrilled every time. Next time I will try another of the many great dishes. The service is perfectly attentive and very friendly. The atmosphere is very pleasant...

Nice location in a nice place. Parking easily.

I would like to mention in advance that I do not expect more in terms of service than I am willing to give and therefore take it for granted. On December 22nd, 2024 I was there with my partner and a good friend... (Oh well...) ...let's say, been a guest! We got there just before 10 p.m. because the opening times told us Until midnight. open! We had planned that if they closed on time, we would go home around 11:40 p.m. to congratulate my partner on her birthday in peace at midnight. But... even before we could sit down, we were already informed: "One drink... Then we close!" I had a good sip and my glass was already empty when my companions just sipped... So I asked kindly if I could have another drink because otherwise I would be left dry until my companions were finished... I was directed from the table to the counter by the waitress, where I was told: "If I do that, everyone will want another... No!" I then paid the bill of €16 for 3 drinks and went back to the table where my people were (in her opinion) it was better to leave your drink than to linger there. If you would like to be a customer there, I wish you a pleasant stay! The three of us, no more!

Great ambience, great food, great staff...just great.

We had a very tasty meal here. The staff was super friendly and always had something to say. All in all we had a lovely evening. The prices are also completely reasonable. The vegetarian/vegan menu is also impressive. You should make a reservation. We also made reservations and everything else was fully booked when we visited. There is free parking available, but we only just managed to get a free space.

Everything is very good, and the huge plates of food, it is a very good place with a good atmosphere, you have to wait a little, but the wait is worth it.

Delicious, service 👌, location 👍, atmosphere 🔥

We had a small Christmas party with a few work colleagues at Venga in Kevelaer, and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised! The food was not only excellent in terms of taste, but also very attractively prepared. You felt like you were in good hands all around, because despite the rush, both the food and drinks were served promptly - a clear plus point for the service. The only thing that bothered me was the slightly loud background noise, but that can hardly be avoided in busy restaurants. All in all we had a very nice evening and I would definitely visit Venga again. Thank you for the successful evening!

Very good food, very friendly and attentive staff. We'd love to come back. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

We were here at lunchtime and it wasn't crowded. Our waiter was very friendly and took great care of us without being intrusive. The food was very good for everyone. Pulled pork burger and fries tasted great. We paid 70 euros with 3 people. That's pretty much in line with other "normal" restaurants. But I found the ambience and the view here much better than anywhere else.

We were there at coffee time. In our opinion it was loud even though there weren't that many guests inside. My apple strudel was a little naked without any cream or vanilla ice cream. Otherwise everything was ok.

We were there yesterday without pre-ordering and were assigned a nice table. The breakfast buffet was just great, everything was fresh, the staff were very accommodating, I felt very comfortable

Delicious food, great that you can put it together yourself, very friendly staff, in short, worth repeating.

So far we have only enjoyed coffee and cake in the Venga restaurant. The outdoor seating invites you to linger and relax. The fast, friendly and competent service ensures a pleasant visit. The inviting menu will certainly entice us to stop by for a meal.

Today we had breakfast at Venga with 7 people, the staff was totally overwhelmed. Breakfast should be buffet style. Everything was simply missing. We won't go there anymore. It's actually a shame ☹️

The food was very good and, as always, the service was very friendly. Ps Please get rid of your annoying electronic menus. Hardly anyone wants that!

Very nice atmosphere, courteous staff and delicious food. We'll be back.

Excellent quality service and atmosphere

The food was very tasty, the atmosphere was nice, but the service was a bit slow. We could work on that 😉

Slow service, drinks take way too long, the staff is inattentive & the food is mediocre

Went there last week, paid €10 for a baked potato and it wasn't tasty. The website says open until 1am on Saturdays, arrive at 11:30pm and we are told they close. Top loading shitty service

Very large and spacious restaurant. Very nice and modern furnishings. There was a little too little legroom at our table for me, which is probably why sitting became uncomfortable after a while. The food was good and plentiful, the prices are ok, the extras were too expensive in my opinion. The staff was super friendly and attentive. Update October 11, 2024 For me the quality of the food has decreased. We had 4 different burgers and all of the burgers were far too dry and the meat was also very dry and hard. The fries were unsalted and very limp. The extras and the drink prices are very high.

The pasta bake is very tasty and so are the waffles with hot cherries and cream. We like to eat here when we go to the Salienen.

Delicious food and good friendly service in a nice atmosphere.

We had pre-ordered and had dinner here with 17 people on Saturday. The menu offers a good selection of dishes.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everyone loved the food and will definitely come back. The photo shows a chili cheeseburger. Unfortunately I only have this photo. Venga earned 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.

We were there for breakfast. The breakfast and the service itself were good. Breakfast is served until 11 a.m The croissants were already sold out by 10 a.m. When we asked if there were any left, we were told it would take 20 minutes and the kitchen said they weren't baking any more! It's a shame because we had just started eating breakfast and were waiting - we had also said this, after all it was still 45 minutes until 11 a.m.!

Basically a good breakfast buffet. What I didn't like: No milk with coffee, we got it in a glass from the muesli bar. Labels or descriptions on the buffet are missing. Cable to the warming station laid open. We didn't like the ham, we found it bland. Service staff not friendly to the limit.

We had breakfast at Venga and were very pleased with the large selection of the buffet. It was always freshly refilled by the very friendly and helpful staff. Gladly again.

Very tasty food, large menu, many different drinks. No long wait for the food. The Camembert Burger is highly recommended!

Previously 5 stars, now only 1 star. Food wasn't what it used to be. Service below zero. Whether we even want to do that to ourselves again.

It was our first time here and definitely not the last time. 😉

Unfortunately there was a very long wait for food and drinks due to a lack of staff.

The one star that you apparently have to give is already too much. We waited on the terrace for 30 minutes without being able to place an order, the employees probably can't see that well... The same thing happened to three tables around us. Everyone would understand if they were kindly pointed out that there is a lot to do at the moment, etc. Instead, the service employee explained to the lady at the next table in a shameless tone that “he only has two hands and not all employees can start at 12.00 and work until evening”. Maybe he should look for a job without customer contact. Anyway, we went to another store...

Once again extremely unfriendly. We tried to get a table in the restaurant at 4 p.m. in heavy rain with a toddler and a stroller. There were reserved signs on all the tables except for one, but we were told it would be too big for us. Then we looked for a smaller table. Then we were told that this table could only be occupied for 45 minutes. Sorry, but it couldn't be more unfriendly. Never Venga again, and especially not with a child.

Delicious. Unfortunately, the fries were too salty and the avocado dip was too peppery. It will definitely be better next time.

Had breakfast today. We liked it.

We were there last night. The food (Venga burger) was delicious and the service was very friendly. I can't complain about the waiting time being too long, after all the restaurant was well attended. Everything was great for us.

Really nice, good food, friendly staff, are there regularly

Unfortunately we had to wait 1h40 for our food, the service was friendly but overloaded. The dishes served were okay: we had casserole and bourgeois, but they weren't particularly special given the average prices.

Clean, accommodating, nice, friendly and cozy

Your advertisement: For us it's about joy of life and enjoyment. Whether young or old, family, friends or business partners. Our reality: I reserved a table for 3 people at 5:30 p.m. on July 31st. When we arrived we were accompanied to the terrace by an employee and given the menus. That's it. We waited for a full hour without being asked what drink or food we wanted. Our multiple attempts to draw the attention of a waitress to us all failed. Quite annoyed and pissed off, we didn't leave the restaurant without making some serious complaints at the counter. So much for the advertisement: joy of life, which we completely lost that evening with you.

Food quite good, service staff tried very hard, but unfortunately mercilessly understaffed. Waiting 1.5 hours for the order is an absolute NO GO! It's a shame, something like that quickly ruins the actually good first impression.🤷‍♂️

I personally don't like it. I find it impersonal, the service poor and the food expensive and no better than in a snack bar.

The burger was tasty, but unfortunately the atmosphere wasn't that nice because the noise surrounding it was already very loud.

Very friendly service, food full marks, restaurant is beautifully situated in the countryside. Highly recommended, we will be back!!!

Stunning service. We always enjoy coming here.

Serve well, fast, nice. Unfortunately there is only a small menu for the balloon festival, for example pizza is completely missing. However, all dishes are €1 more expensive than on the normal menu. You take what you can get. A pity.

The Venga in Kevelaer is located just outside the city center and offers plenty of parking spaces on site. For family reasons, I've had breakfast here twice and was disappointed both times. Visit 1 happened in April 2023, it was a Monday morning, and two other people were having breakfast at Venga next to us. There was enough food on offer, but everything had been on display for quite a long time and was therefore showing signs of dryness; there were cold, dried-on scrambled eggs. Visit 2 occurred in May 2024, also a Monday morning, we had made reservations for 5 people. No space was saved for us, we were simply allowed to choose one of the numerous free tables. It was better attended than on our first visit but far from full. We sat down at a table set for four, but waited in vain for a fifth place setting and then took it from the neighbor when he left. (The other tables were not set) The food was fresh, but it took a very long time to be added (if at all), so there was no boiled egg available at the beginning of our visit and none was added when we left, the same with water and much more. But I was particularly disappointed by the quality of the goods. When I go out for breakfast I don't expect Aldi quality cheese and cold cuts, I don't eat them at home because they don't taste good.

A very special place, great gastronomy, very nice staff and a nice atmosphere! The terrace is particularly noteworthy when the weather is good 👌🌞

A sensationally good hotel, not quite in the center, but just close to the city. Super-friendly service both at reception and in the breakfast area, extremely helpful. Very good breakfast, very quiet, clean rooms. Good parking spaces right in front of the door. It takes about 12 minutes to walk to the city center. Top address in Kevelaer, also for AD/sales people on overnight trips.

We were completely forgotten. We were then allowed to order drinks 45 minutes later upon request. Very unfriendly reaction from the staff. It's completely okay to wait longer for food when it's full. But then at least the staff can be friendly and not insult the guest. Very unfortunate!!!!!

This time I wasn't impressed, neither in terms of taste nor the sequence. We already had the main course with the starter.

Very cozy place. Staff friendly and on the ball.

good food, good ambience and good service

We had dinner there with friends at the weekend. My food and drinks were good, as always. However, the service was not good, so we won't be coming back. We found the cellar that served us to be very unprofessional and disrespectful towards the guests. We had to wait a long time for our drinks and new drinks were only taken after a long time, even when the glasses were empty. He walked past us regularly and there was usually a lot to do. The same thing happened at the next table; there was a group of young women sitting here. The group at the next table had something to complain about with one of their drinks. The waiter's reaction to this was not good at all. The women were rudely told that there was as much alcohol in the cocktail as always, instead of simply bringing a new one. People then talked about the table and made fun of each other with the kitchen staff and at the counter. Rude and then stupid when the other guests see it. Even if we weren't directly affected, we just felt uncomfortable.

We waited almost 90 minutes for food. Service was catastrophic Food was sufficient No recommendation from me.

Service great. Rump steak was immediately remade after a complaint. Great reaction.

Staff was really nice, food was very delicious and prices are cherry on top of the cake!

Nice staff, great food in an industrial style restaurant right next to the brine system. Definitely again.

The burgers are very good and the atmosphere is pleasant.

The range of food on offer is large and the dishes are quite tasty. The location, especially outside, is great. Therefore it is very busy here in summer. However, this also leads to sometimes enormous waiting times with friendly but often completely overwhelmed service.

Had another great meal yesterday, tuna steak with lobster cream sauce, risotto and salad, followed by the obligatory Tarte Tartin. Greetings and compliments to the kitchen, see you next time.

Everything is great, only the room design is a bit very dark with the many black walls, which the glass windows can bring out with the beautiful view, but only when the sun is shining, otherwise it is quite dark. But the rest is really great, the food is great and you can taste the effort that went into it. The service is more than friendly and has a good look at whether you need anything else and is very helpful. All in all 5 stars. Only the dark interior design is a little annoying but that's a matter of taste

Weird service. After asking whether we could sit outside, there was only a groan and an announcement that we had to take everything outside by ourselves and the colleague was then frantically asked whether this was even possible. Unfortunately, the buffet was often empty, even though the store wasn't full at all. We just liked the surroundings and the ambience. The service really leaves a lot to be desired...

I can only recommend it to be super delicious. Very nice staff and children friendly too.

Very flexible. You can get a table even without a reservation

Nice restaurant in Kevelaer. Super good service and great burgers. We are always happy to be there again.

The burgers are average and that's a stretch. Dry meat, tasteless, sauces usually like from a jar. Tasteless bun.

Very tasty food and good drinks. The service is also good.

You can put together your own food. Nice outside area.

Breakfast from the adjacent hotel here was very good. Service is super friendly, as long as the hotel is not mentioned. Children's portions would be very desirable for dinner. It was definitely delicious.

Beautiful café in a great atmosphere and great location. You can't just have a delicious breakfast there.

The breakfast is very solid. The service is super nice

Perfect food, great ambience. We were very satisfied.

Just German solidity. Conveniently located at the Solegarten.

We always enjoy coming back. The food, drinks, service and ambience deserve a full 5 stars. Here you can have a quiet drink after dinner and end the evening. The cocktail menu is great and in summer you can sit outside. Only the acoustics inside are very "loud" when there is a lot going on. But that's no reason to deduct a star.

Went for a walk in Sole Park and then had a cup of coffee and delicious cake.

Für Solegarten - Gäste sehr enttäuschend, das von 11.00 bis 14.30 Uhr Mittagspause ist, praktisch kein Mittagessen angeboten wird und auch kein Cafebetrieb ist. Vorher ist Frühstücksbuffet/Brunch, wohl dem Hotel im gleichen Haus geschuldet!? In Kleve sieht das im Venga ganz anders aus.

The food was very tasty, large portions. Tasty drinks, very atmospheric. We will definitely come back there :)

Byliśmy ze znajomymi na wieczornym wypadzie w miasto. Koleżanka zaproponowała miejsce, gdzie można smacznie zjeść i miło spędzić czas. Byłem pod wrażeniem..... Bardzo smaczne jedzonko, ciekawe drinki i wszystko w mega klimatycznym miejscu w super cenach. Wspólnie z żoną stwierdziliśmy, że mamy nowe, super miejsce na degustację i randki. Polecam !!!!! 🥰

Πάρα πολύ νόστιμο μπεργκερ μεγάλο και ζουμερό σερβίρεται με πατάτα. Το περιβάλλον ήταν παρα πολύ ευχάριστο και το σέρβις άψογο σχεδόν όλο το προσωπικό πέρασε από το τραπέζι μας και μας ρώτησε αν είναι νόστιμο.

Sehr nettes Ambiente, Service ist gut und schnell. Das Essen ist ok, aber Gesamtpaket ist gut.

Super chices Ambiente ,sehr freundliches Personal,sehr gute Speise/Getränkekarte.Die Speisen Geschmacklich sehr gut.Preis Leistungsverhältnis sehr 👍 gut. Absulut zu empfehlen! Viele Grüße Monika

Location und Personal Top. Was allerdings die Bewertung drastisch runter zieht ist das minderwertige Fleisch auf den Burgern. Zu dem Preis muss frisches Rinderhack zur Zubereitung genommen werden und nicht ein TK Gummilappen der nach muffigen Karton schmeckt. Eigentlich schon eine Frechheit.

Sehr schick.richtig gemütlich. Service sehr schnell freundlich und aufmerksam

Gemütliche und entspannte Atmosphäre bei angenehmer Beleuchtung (abends). Freundliche Bedienung und super leckere Gerichte. Z.B. Maronensuppe 😋

Bis jetzt immer zufrieden gewesen, vorallem den Chicken Wrap find ich super und das Tiramisu ist auch zu empfehlen. Sehr schön eingerichtet.

Ich war schon des Öfteren mit meinen Freundinnen dort, entweder zum Essen oder einfach zum Kaffeeklatsch. 😉 Allein die Waffeln mit heißen Kirschen und Eis sind ein Gedicht! Dazu noch supernette Bedienung - was will man mehr! 👍👍

Sehr gemütliches Restaurant, freundliche Bedienung, üppige Portionen an Speisen

Top 😃 Wir fühlen uns immer wie zu Hause. Das Personal ist immer freundlich und das Essen ist immer lecker 😋 😋 😋 😋 😋

Wir waren schon ein paar Mal hier. Das Essen ist ganz OK, aber da bin ich auch wirklich pingelig.. Manchmal laufen die Kellner oft an einem vorbei und man kommt nicht an neue Geräte tränke. Ist aber noch nicht soo oft passiert. Sitzen tut man ganz nett. Vor allem wenn man bei gutem Wetter einen Platz draußen ergattert. Dort ist es ruhig und windgeschützt.

Burger waren verglichen mit anderen Restaurants enttäuschend. Ich glaube nicht mal das es an der Zubereitung lag, sondern eher an dem verhältbismäßig minderwertigen Fleisch. Brot, dips und bruscetta waren aber top und zu empfehlen. Das Ambiente halte ich für überbewertet: mir war kalt und es war laut. Die Türe scheint einen defekt zu haben, sodass sie nicht schließt wenn jemand das restaursnt Unachtsam betritt. Da ich nah an der Türe saß überlegte ich schon sie zu schließen. Jedoch befürchtete ich dass wenn ich damit anfangen, sich alle auf mich verlassen. Daher ließ ich sie auf. Service war nett und aufmerksam aber das kartenlesegerät ist abgestürzt und wir mussten unnötig lange warten bis wir das Restaurant verlassen konnten. Für mich persönlich ein wahr gewordener Albtraum. :D Fazit. Wir werden zum essen nicht nochmal ins venga gehen. Einen cocktail mit Freunden und ein bisschen fingerfood ist wohl drin, sofern man eine Jacke, oder einen Platz fernab der Türe bekommt. Gruß Marc, Nicht böse sein - alles Dinge die man in den Griff kriegen kann.

Gute Auswahl an Speisen! Appetitlich angerichtet und sehr lecker! Sehr freundlicher und aufmerksamer Service!!! Modernes Ambiente! 👍👍👍👍

Еда очень вкусная нам все понравилось.
