Waldgasthof Gut Wolfsaap in Düsseldorf

I stopped in spontaneously on Sunday afternoon after walking my dog ​​in the Aaperwald forest. Even though the place was completely booked, they managed to get me a seat. The food was delicious. The coffee at the end was also extremely good. Thank you very much...

Always delicious and very welcoming. Reasonably priced and very generous.

Simply lovely, personal, and delicious. The best beers in the region.

We weren't welcome because we didn't have a reservation. It's not simply a matter of no table being available, but rather that we were treated with disrespect. Currently free tables on the terrace would soon be taken again, and there are generally no tables available in the restaurant because otherwise the kitchen would be overwhelmed. Furthermore, on weekends, only people with reservations would be served. This was made clear to us in a very unfriendly tone after we repeatedly approached the waitress. Before that, we were ignored. A real shame, since we made the trek through the forest specifically for this restaurant. At least the website should point out that reservations are mandatory.

Recommended, but reserve beforehand :0)

It's a very nice restaurant in the middle of the forest, zoo

Very tasty cake and reasonable prices. Cozy.

I can't rate it because we were ignored, we were seen when we sat outside, but it didn't matter. Even when my companion entered the restaurant, she was punished with disregard. Then we left again...

I gave it 3 × 5 stars, there's nothing to add (except perhaps that it smells like horses almost everywhere, especially in the toilet).

Best restaurant. Everything perfect

The bacon pancake was quite soggy, not like I know it.

It's always an indescribable feeling of happiness when you come across restaurants where everything is almost perfect: -A hospitable operator couple -A kitchen crew that is second to none -Attentive, fast service -A fair price-performance ratio -Sparkling clean, attractive sanitary rooms -Nice ambience -A good drinks menu. However, I would like to highlight the consistently delicious dishes, 4 of which I have already tested and which I would all describe as top gastronomy. I have never eaten a better Düsseldorf mustard roast. Conclusion: A thumb for the palate.👍🏼 Summer outdoor dining is available next to the extensive stud farm, as well as a delightful cake menu at coffee time. The only downer: difficult access. My recommendation: get there via Reichswaldallee/corner of Am Bauenhaus (stop Hubertushain).

Es ist immer wieder ein unbeschreibliches Glücksgefühl, wenn man auf Gastronomiebetriebe trifft, bei denen alles nahezu perfekt ist: -Ein gastfreundschaftliches Betreiberpaar -Eine Küchencrew, die Ihresgleichen sucht -Aufmerksamer, schneller Service -Eine faires Preis-Leistungsverhältnis -Blitzblanke, ansprechende Sanitärräume -Schönes Ambiente -Eine gute Getränkekarte. Herausheben möchte ich allerdings die durchweg leckeren Gerichte, von denen ich jetzt bereits 4 getestet habe und die ich alle durchweg als Spitzengastronomie bezeichnen würde. Einen besseren Düsseldorfer Senfrostbraten aß ich noch nie. Fazit: Ein Daumen für den Gaumen.👍🏼 Sommerliche Außengastro neben dem weitläufigen Gestüt vorhanden, ebenso wie eine erfreuliche Kuchenkarte zur Kaffeezeit. Einziger Wermutstopfen: Schwierige Anfahrt. Meine Empfehlung: Über Reichswaldallee/ Ecke Am Bauenhaus (Haltestelle Hubertushain) anfahren.

I ended up here with my girlfriend by chance... Home-style food, very tasty and friendly, open-minded innkeepers... What more could you want... We'll be back. :)

Cozy location, delicious, rather rustic food and very authentic, friendly service, very large portions and fair prices. The only point of criticism is the very limited offer for vegetarians.

Finding this place was an adventure, as Google Maps led our car off-road into some barely-existent forest paths. We were lucky to get help from another couple who, funny enough, happened to be in the same situation. But hidden in the uncharted woods there was a real treasure! A very nice lady managed to sit us, although the place was already quite full. Food was a wonder! - incredibly tasty and brought fast. The home-like vibe of this place is absolutely heartwarming. A happy adventure followed by an impeccable dinner - what else could one wish for? 🥰

Very nice place with a homelike atmosphere. Excellent food and a quite good selection of drinks. 🚗 Finding the location by car might be a bit tricky.

1/24/25 - We know the landlord of Gut Wolfsaap from his time at Gut Knittkuhle (until around 2011). We enjoyed eating there back then and also invited the family there for some celebrations (weddings, baptisms, school enrolments). After he moved to Gut Wolfsaap, we were unfortunately only there very rarely (because we were also moving away). So yesterday I finally went there again and it was like before: the menu was almost identical (both visually and in terms of content), the atmosphere was rustic and the dishes - just like before - were very tasty. I enjoyed eating the Fuhrmannspfanne over 20 years ago and it was just as delicious yesterday as it was back then. If I understood correctly, the same chef cooks there. It's rare to have this much consistency in the catering industry these days (partly because of the pandemic) and you can really appreciate that. We would be very, very happy to come back.

Absolute favorite restaurant! Great food Very family atmosphere. The terrace is a dream

It was a brilliant goose meal. This delightful little inn is located a little off the beaten path in the Aaper Forest. Not only was the food great, everything was perfect. From the price to the friendly service and the nice get-together, we were able to enjoy a happy and great evening. We'll be back.

We love this place. Wonderful feel-good atmosphere. Super friendly hosts and service staff. Quality meals at normal prices. Attentive service.

Family atmosphere, also due to the size of the inn, which is furnished in a typical location. Food very tasty and plentiful. The attentive service actively offered us refills, which happened quickly. A corresponding TG will be given. Great team!

Delicious food, nice atmosphere. Best goulash soup...

Very nice owners who fulfill almost every dining wish. Food was also first class. We'll be back.

When we are in the forest and our stomachs growl, we always feel in good hands here. The food and portions are very good and plentiful. We always enjoy coming here.

No idea what the food was like, we were 'not allowed' to eat. Without a reservation this wouldn't be possible. Which is basically not a problem if, on the one hand, you are informed about it beforehand (perhaps on the website???) and, on the other hand, the service employee at least reveals this information in a friendly manner. She left us standing in the entrance with a harsh but simple no to our question and disappeared. So there wasn't even a drink. That was very annoying after a medium bike ride.

Very nice owner and outstanding food. The roast is large, extremely tender and was cooked to the perfect degree.

Very nice café, very good food, but the service was a disaster. It was full and everyone was busy. However, the service left us after 15 minutes. Waiting time wasn't even acknowledged as a glance until new guests arrived at the next table and they relatively quickly held a menu in their hands. When we asked if we could get one, we only got the answer that she thought we were previous guests because the empty dishes were still there. After taking the order, the coffee came relatively quickly, the rest took a while to arrive. In the meantime we already had the food, but still no drinks. It was only when we asked that they finally arrived. When we wanted to pay we had to ask several times. The waitress herself didn't respond to calls and didn't even look in our direction. When we asked that we weren't satisfied, we were told: "It's because of the kitchen, it just takes a while. It's just full today." No apologies whatsoever! No apologies whatsoever; And it definitely wasn't the kitchen. The food was excellent and arrived relatively quickly after we ordered it. We're happy to wait a bit when it's full, but that was ignorant and arrogant.

Very good tasty food... Nice service Price afford 100% Highly recommended

Were there for coffee & cake. We were so impressed that we reserved a table straight away for goose dinner.

Super delicious food, great service!

Obwohl das Lokal und der Biergarten heute sehr gut besucht war (Hochbetrieb)... Das Essen war, wie immer, sehr gut und die Bedienung sehr freundlich. Wir bedanken uns und freuen uns schon auf den nächsten Besuch!

Very nice and hardworking team. Linguine with chanterelles very tasty and good portion. In the middle of the forest and very close to the horses 🫶 We would love to come back.

Great food. Nice atmosphere. The owner is a nice man willing to talk. It's worth making up a few kilometers and eating a delicious dinner.

Fantastic in terms of price and taste! Very friendly owners and service. We recommend!

A nice relaxing place with very nice staff and delicious food. We ate there many years ago and now we went there again. Really really good. A big thank you to the staff. Despite the hectic pace, we felt comfortable. We will come back in any case. Basto family

Waren dort mit einem Kollegen verabredet, der schon öfters dort war und es empfohlen hat. Wir wurden NICHT enttäuscht. Schon der Empfang durch den Chrf war herzlich. Die Bedienung nett, höflich und kompetent. Das Essen, "Rheinischer Sauerbraten" und "Omlett mit Ziegenkäse", einsame Spitze und der Nachtisch "Eis mit heißen Kirschen" und "Schokokuchen" auch nicht zu verachten. Rundum zufrieden und haben wir Lokalität verlassen und kommen bestimmt wieder. Die Speisekarte hat noch einige Essen, gut bürgerlich, die noch probiert werden müssen.

We had an appointment there with a colleague who had been there several times and recommended it. We were NOT disappointed. The welcome from the Chrf was warm. The service was nice, polite and competent. The food, “Rheinischer Sauerbraten” and “Omlette with goat cheese”, was a standout and the dessert “Ice cream with hot cherries” and “Chocolate cake” was also not to be despised. Completely satisfied, we left the location and will definitely come back. The menu still has some dishes, good home-style, that still need to be tried.

Where it's delicious! Schnitzel Viennese style with fried potatoes, asparagus and hollandaise sauce - wonderful taste, generous portion, great service - friendly and attentive. You feel comfortable there and are pampered with food and drink.

It was very crowded for Saturday lunchtime. We didn't find a place. The staff smoked in the entrance area. The beer garden is near the dung heap. A breath of forest air. The audience, on the other hand, seemed more chic. We probably won't try again.

Great food, cozy, nice service :))

Rustic, very good cuisine, friendly service

Highly recommended, idyllic and somewhat hidden on a horse farm.

A restaurant located in the forest and area of ​​the horse facility. Very nice atmosphere and delicious food. Good portions and Rhenish and home-style cuisine.

We ate pancakes here after a hike. Really attractively garnished and rich. If the smell of horses in the restaurant doesn't bother you, you can also enjoy the rustic ambience.

Small, fine restaurant, totally cozy! Super tasty, good German home cooking at low prices! In summer you can sit outside, very idyllic! Highly recommended!! :)

Absolute insider tip, don't forget to reserve a table. Day guests are often turned away, there are only a few seats inside. The chef has been the same for years, which explains the fantastic 4.7* rating here

Very very nice place to stay!!! Stables with horses and beautiful surroundings!!!

Great forest inn with a cozy, rustic atmosphere. The Düsseldorf mustard roast was excellent for me and the Alfredo pasta for my wife. The service is friendly and food and drinks are provided quickly. After paying and leaving the restaurant, we had a little chat in small talk format with the restaurant manager, who was also extremely nice, in front of the entrance area of ​​the restaurant. We leave with a lasting good impression and look forward to our next visit there. Conclusion: Absolutely recommended!

Very nice owner/service. Delicious food / decorative arrangement of the food. Reasonable prices. We recommend.

Very pleasantly surprised for the second time. Very good, delicious cuisine at the riding stables.

We liked it very much 👍. The meal was delicious. The service excellent. The boss was great.

After a short hike, we ate, as always, a delicious meal and drank some delicious Dröpken. You feel very good there, everyone is friendly and accommodating

Always a pleasure to be there and enjoy. Reservations are highly recommended at this well-attended Waldgasthof. The friendly hosts also respond to feasible special requests ☺️. We always like to come back

We had a very successful stop with our hiking group after our hike through the Aaper Forest - we had reserved for 15 people and were with 18 people - even though it was more than full, there was still a place for everyone. The food was delicious and the service was very friendly - excellent value for money - we would be happy to come back

Very friendly and courteous service, super tasty and freshly cooked food, large portions and a rustic atmosphere - what more could you want? Children are also very welcome there and special requests are catered for. We will be back definitely! Reservations are particularly recommended during peak times or on weekends.

We have always enjoyed being guests at the Waldhof Gut Wolfsaap with Ede and his team for years. Personally, I can recommend the prawn pan with spaghetti to everyone, which I order every time. Great taste. Nice location. Lovely team. Definitely worth a visit.

Particularly perfect service with excellent food.

Very cozy inn in a rustic style on a horse farm. Extremely friendly team. Super tasty food with a fair price-performance ratio. We'll definitely be back!

I always enjoy coming back. The food is great and the staff are genuinely friendly

We met here for lunch for a small birthday party with 9 people. All guests were extremely enthusiastic about the friendly and very personal atmosphere. The food was the best I have enjoyed in Düsseldorf and the surrounding area in a long time. The goose was excellent, the sauerbraten like mother's, the rump steak was on point and the Fuhrmann's pan was simply delicious. I feel the need to express this here. The only small limitation was the low room temperature. So just dress warmly in the cold season. I'm still excited.

Great food and great service, I can recommend it to everyone

Un endroit très agréable, un personnel super sympathique et une nourriture incroyablement délicieuse ! Merci !

Wir waren heute nach einer Wanderung zum ersten Mal hier und überrascht wie gut das Restaurant schon um 12:08 Uhr war obwohl gerade erst aufgemacht. Die Bedienungen waren super freundlich. Schnell sind die Getränke gekommen und dann auch das Essen. Vorgewärmte Teller und ein großer leckerer Speckpfannekuchen rundeten den Besuch ab. Am Wochenende sollte man reservieren. Tolles Preis Leistungsverhältnis. Gerne wieder.

Super leckeres Essen, sehr nette Bedienung. Ambiente rustikal. Viele Stammgäste. Man muss einen Tisch reservieren, sonst hat man Pech. Man kann auch draußen sitzen.

Ein tolles Lokal und nette Besitzer. Seit Jahren kommen wir sehr gerne hierher. Das Essen ist immer frisch und schmeckt hervorragend. Portionen sind riesig. Die Preise haben sich kaum geändert und dafür sind wir auch sehr dankbar.

Eine schöne Ziel, das man gut während einer Wanderung ansteuern kann. Alle Gerichte, die wir bestellt hatten, waren optisch und geschmacklich gut!

Erst Ponyreiten, dann mittag essen 👌🏻 alles super...

Sehr nette Bedienung und leckerer Kuchen. Einzig die Nähe zum Pferdemisthaufen ist störend.

Es war nett. Wir mussten leider lange warten. Egal ob auf Kellner, Speisekarte, Getränke, Bestecke...

Wir waren gestern dort zu Viert zum Essen, hatten nicht reserviert, konnten aber in dem gemütlichen Gastraum Platz nehmen. Wir hatten Schnitzel mit Pfifferlingen, Speckpfannkuchen und den Sauerbraten, alles sehr gut, heiß und hübsch angerichtet. Sehr freundliche Wirtsleute, wir haben schöne Stunden dort verlebt, vielen Dank an daa gesamte Team. Ein Lob an den Koch.

Einfach nur fantastisch...😁 Egal was man sich aus der Speisekarte aussucht,alles ist wunderbar. Meine Favoriten sind: Die Fuhrmannspfanne und Schnitzel Wiener Art...😊 Gastwirt und Gastwirtin sind Top..

Den Düsseldorfer Senfrostbraten muss man probiert haben !!!!

Wir waren zum ersten Mal im Gut Wolfsaap. Haben uns rundherum wohl gefühlt. Gemütliches Ambiente eines Reiterhofes. Das Essen war sehr lecker, großzügige Portionen schön angerichtet. In den Sommermonaten sollte man reservieren, wenn man im Biergarten sitzen möchte. Das Team rund um den schlagfertigen Wirt ist sehr freundlich und alle sind für die Gäste fleißig am herumwirbeln.

Einmalig gutes Essen. Riesen Menues. Kann ich mit ruhigen Gewissen weiterempfehlen

Ich weiß nicht wo ich anfangen soll, alles einfach super.

Kenne die Inhaber und das Restaurant seit ca. 8 Jahren...gehe hier immer wieder gerne hin....meiner Meinung nach ist der Speckpfannekuchen und das Carpaccio sensationell...aber eigentlich ist alles sehr gut. Essen mit Genuss und ohne Teue, weil man vorher und nachher einen kleinen Waldlauf machen kann, um die Kalorien zu verarbeiten...geht aber natürlich auch gut ohne! Nicht zu vergessen ist wegen dem guten Essen der Koch....der ist einfach Gold wert.

Fantastisches Essen. Großartiger Service.

Eine wirklich freundlich/herzliche Atmosphäre im Lokal und Wirtsgarten. Die Speisen sind vom Senfkrustenbraten bis zu den Spaghetti mit Gambas, bzw. ausgesuchten Salaten, vorzüglich präsentiert, schmackhaft und sehr groß. Das Getränkeangebot entsprach meinen Vorstellungen von einem guten Abendrestaurant.

Auf der Durchfahrt nach 4,5+ gegoogelt. Alles Bestens!

Sehr freundliche Bedienung, sehr gutes Essen. Man isst halt neben einem Pferdestall und das riecht man. Uns hat es nicht gestört.

Speisen wurden frisch zubereitet und heiß serviert! Gute Portionen, nett angerichtet gute Qualität und sehr lecker. Fazit:gemütlicher Biergarten, kleines Lokal mit hervorragendem Essen. Preis/Leistung passt!

Bin wie immer sehr zufrieden mit dem Gutbürgerlichen Essen.

Sehr schönes Restaurant am Grafenberger Wald: wunderbare Atmosphäre, toller Service, leckere Speisen und das zu vernünftigen Preise. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Freundliches Personal, bei etwas Betrieb leidet der Service und man hat zu lange Wartezeiten. Das Angebot liegt in seiner Güte und Qualität auf durchschnittlichem Kantinenniveau. Schade, man könnte mehr daraus machen

Sehr leckeres Essen in guten Portionen. Der Service und das Essen brauchte teilweise etwas länger. Bedienung war aber immer sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Die Anfahrt über den Güteraaper Weg war sehr holprig. Lieber über Lohhofwegeg fahren.

Gute schlichte deutsche Küche. Nette Terrasse.

Kleine Gaststätte am Pferde-Gut. Einrichtung etwas historisch, aber hat Ambiente an dieser Stelle. Die Portionen sind der Wahnsinn. Machen richtig satt und es schmeckt hervorragend. Dazu sind die Preise mehr als angemessen, eher sogar zu günstig für die Qualität!

Immer wieder lecker! Danke für die Gastfreundschaft:)

Gemütliches Lokal mit gutem Essen.

Ein uriger kleiner Gasthof, versteckt im tiefen Aaper Wald zwischen Pferdeställen, Mistgabeln und Koppeln. Das Essen war köstlich, gut bürgerlich und die Portionen absolut ausreichend. Ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Für Kinder gibt es extra kleine Portionen und Hunde sind herzlich willkommen. Nach dem leckeren Essen lädt der Wald zum Spazieren ein.

Wir sind auf Empfehlung hierher gekommen und gehen seitdem regelmäßig hier essen. Das lokal ist klein aber fein und liegt etwas versteckt, in der Nähe des Segelflugplatz‘s. Service: Die Bedienung ist sehr freundlich und ist bemüht auch ohne Reservierung die Kunden bestmöglichst zu bedienen. Das gelingt, trotz der hohen Frequentierung, die sich an schönen Tagen durchaus ergibt. Nachdem man hier einmal zu Gast war, ist es aus durchaus nachvollziehbar. Essen: Das Essen ist absolut super. Geschmacklich und qualitativ top. Was man vor allem beim Fleisch und dessen Zubereitung merkt. Preis-Leistung ist mehr als überragend. Die Portionen sind wirklich groß und kaum zu bewältigen. Hier muss niemand hungrig nachhause gehen. Lokation: Das Lokal ist ziemlich, es empfiehlt sich vorab anzurufen und zu reservieren, das es wirklich immer sehr gut besucht ist. Die Lage lädt gradezu zum Spazieren ein.

Senfrostbraten und Sauerbraten waren so gut zubereitet, dass nichts auf dem Teller übrig blieb - wirklich gut gekocht. Der Sauerbraten war der beste, den ich bisher in Düsseldorf gegessen habe. Personal ist super nett, das Restaurant klein & gemütlich. Eine tolle familiäre Atmosphäre. 5 Sterne

Das beste Essen das ich jemals gegessen habe, sehr nette Betreiber, haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt

Total urig! Sehr lecker und irgendwie einzigartig

Tolles Familienunternehmen, alle sind mehr als zuvorkommend! Das Essen ist sehr gut , und die Getränke . Ich gehe immer wieder gerne dort hin und fühle mich sehr wohl ! Fünf Sterne 👍👍

Great place to experience traditional German cuisine (especially Gansessen).

Wunderschön gelegen und wirklich gute Küche.

Nett und unkompliziert. Eher deftige Hausmannskost. Pfannkuchen sind gut und riesig. Gans ganz lecker, aber nicht überragend und mit 35 Euro nicht gerade günstig. Vorsicht: Das Navi führt einen womöglich in den Wald in eine Sackgasse. Vorher reservieren und fragen, welche ADRESSE man ins Navi eingeben sollte.

Leider wirkte der Service an einem Sonntag Nachmittag überfordert. Unser Kuchen war lecker, allerdings mussten wir fast 30 Minuten darauf warten.. Im Hintergrund klingelte das Telefon in Dauerschleife, was leider nicht grade zu einem besseren Eindruck verholfen hat
