Waldgaststätte Schützenhaus in Bad Dürkheim

Super tasty food at a fair price. Staff was very friendly. We'll definitely be back!

This was my second time there and the service is still very good, effective, fast and friendly. You can tell that it is a family business with great commitment. Schnitzels aren't really my thing, but they're good there. Unfortunately, the fries were too heavily seasoned with paprika for me this time. I think salt is enough. Otherwise...everything is fine. There is always an extra plate if two people want to share a dish without making a face. A good wine list with good local winemakers. I'm excited about the newly paved terrace.

Yesterday we were there with our footballers' get-together :) Drinks and food went very quickly, even though the restaurant was completely full. A very, very big compliment to the waitresses. When Theo came to us at the end and offered schnapps and espresso on the house, we got into a nice conversation. Very familiar :). The food tasted very, very good and I can only recommend it. We would definitely come again :)

A great evening with very tasty food. I had a rump steak that was cooked to perfection. Very nice service and the innkeeper Theo is also extremely friendly 👍🏻 gladly again!

Very cozy restaurant and a good-humoured, attentive service team. The food was very tasty and well presented on the plate. No complaints about the drinks either.

Very nice and relaxed and on top of that very attentive staff, food delicious and inexpensive, just the music in the background every now and then (and probably always on Sundays?) still leaves room for improvement...😉😂

It was our first time in the Schützenhaus. The food and service was very good. 👍 You come in and immediately feel at home. Pleasant atmosphere with some music. We'd love to come back...

The best idea to end the week with delicious food, wine and beer and a good atmosphere in a cozy restaurant or to meet up with old friends again. You immediately feel warmly welcomed by boss Anja and Theo and in good hands with the fast, friendly service. We'll be back soon!👍

Yesterday we were four people in this "hut" for the first time and were immediately impressed! From the first contact at lunchtime we noticed that a lot of things work here differently than in other restaurants. The shop was packed, but the boss, Anja, came straight up to greet us warmly. We had requested a table for 4pm and she told us she was fully booked but offered to just come by later. She promised to reserve a spot for us – and she kept her word! When we arrived at 3:45 p.m. we were immediately recognized: "It's nice that you're here! Here's your table." Anja brought us the menus and immediately took our drink orders. It was obvious that they have enough service staff - the team really seemed to enjoy their work! The atmosphere among the guests was also great. The food was simply fantastic! The homemade schnitzels from the pan with side dishes and salad cost less than 20 euros and were of first-class quality. Suddenly music started playing and Anja sang along loudly - that put even more of a good mood in the whole restaurant! Her husband also joined us and had a nice conversation. We'll definitely be back!

Super! Everything is great! We always enjoy coming back :)

Relaxed atmosphere, the service and the food is always very good. I've been here since 2016 and it's always worth it. Treat yourself to a cold drink after archery.

Had dinner with our two children. Even though the house was full and there was a lot to do, the staff were very friendly to us and the kids. We felt very comfortable and can only recommend the restaurant. We weren't there for the last time. 🙂

Food and service absolutely top. It was the best decision to eat there.

Coming spontaneously for the first time was the best decision. The food was delicious, the service and staff were super friendly and the spritzer was a bargain 🍷 Any time…..

The food is outstanding, very well seasoned and good portions. But what's even better is the nice atmosphere, you feel really comfortable here :)

Great food. You have to try the Schlemmerschnitzel. Very nice hospitality, would love to come back. See you soon 👋

At first glance there were 6 people in the restaurant, everything was full, after a short wait we were assigned a table. Theo the boss apologized, it might get loud for a moment (drilling work) and in compensation everyone was given a shot or espresso of their choice. The food (various schnitzel dishes) was delicious and plentiful We had a lovely afternoon There was no drilling until we left.

Super nice and authentic staff. The host is also great and the food was good. Always my pleasure!

Highly recommended! Very friendly hosts, food great, service great, atmosphere great! We'll be back!!

Very good food, friendly service and great atmosphere. Always my pleasure

Very good Palatinate cuisine at fair prices and great service.

Very good food, again and again

Super friendly service, very, very good food, nice atmosphere! Always my pleasure!!! Thanks for the wonderful time!

Great atmosphere with very friendly staff. Honest German food at reasonable prices. As soon as you greet us you feel at home. We love our local restaurant. Thank you for the warmth and good food 😍

Very tasty food, great view and very friendly staff

Very good and freshly prepared food. You can tell that people still cook here with passion and heart. The service is always friendly and every wish is fulfilled. The boss Anja is the best!!! All in all, definitely a special experience. With a distant view over Bad Dürkheim. Highlight gourmet schnitzel👍👍👍 Best rump steak far and wide! Perfect menu!!!

The food is excellent. Service great. Family atmosphere. Beautiful terrace. In the middle of the forest, extensive hiking trails.

Had a lovely evening with very attentive service and delicious food. Happy to come back!

Very nice service. Food came quickly. Delicious and we were very full. We'll come back when we're nearby. Thanks

Ate well. Price performance is completely okay. We'd love to come back. Please reserve. The restaurant is well attended. We don't have a photo. We ate Palatinate Duo, cream schnitzel and meatloaf.

Great, extremely nice service. Home cooking with a top price-performance ratio! Perfect for stopping off after hiking.

Very good food Fast and friendly service

The Waldgasthaus Schützenhaus in is a place where you immediately feel at home. The quality of the food is excellent - from Palatinate delicacies to Mediterranean dishes, everything is served here at the highest level. The staff, including the warm-hearted boss, are extremely friendly, accommodating and literally read your every wish. A special highlight is the beautiful outdoor terrace, which offers a wonderful view of Bad Dürkheim in summer. The lovingly renovated guest rooms create a cozy atmosphere that perfectly rounds off your stay. A visit here is always a pleasure – we would love to come back!

As always, very tasty and great service. Always my pleasure.

Very friendly staff, the food was great too, we couldn't complain in any way 👍

We were TOP for the first time but not the last The singing boss is the icing on the cake!!

We went for a walk in the area, stopped by there unplanned and just checked to see if we could get a spot. We were welcomed very warmly and were able to join some nice people at the table. Even though it was really full, everything went really quickly and the food was really good. If we are in the area again we will definitely come back.

Very familiar and really Palatinate! Prices are within reason :)

Very good food, great service, nice atmosphere. We only met great people and the dogs were just as welcome. We are convinced and would like to come back regularly ☺️

We went to the Schützenhaus today after hiking and can only recommend it. The whole group enjoyed everything very much. I would like to highlight my delicious bratwursts. The service was very nice and attentive. Another plus point.....since we couldn't predict the time of our arrival at the restaurant within 30 minutes in order to make the reservation...that wasn't a problem. It doesn't happen often. Many thanks to the boss for the really delicious schnapps. We'd love to come back.

Highly recommended, but reservations advisable. Everything I've eaten there so far has been good. Palatinate cuisine plus! The spaghetti with shrimp is to die for. No Italian cooks better. Service is always very friendly, prices are absolutely okay.

After a hike we stopped at the Schützenhaus, were greeted very friendly and served and the food was also very tasty, can only be recommended.

Everyone who lives in the Palatinate or has ever visited should visit the Schützenhaus. Advice in advance - it's better to call first to see if there's anything available, because it's often not possible without a reservation. However, it is not the case that you will be turned away immediately if you come by spontaneously. There is usually always room for two people, and the service girls and the boss are always very creative and helpful. The ambience is very cozy and pleasant, the mood is generally very positive and just like the people of Palatinate are (sociable and open...). As soon as you've sat down, it starts, there are no long waiting times, everyone is on their toes and it's a really well-coordinated team that feels like they've been making sacrifices and working together every weekend for years. The menu is not overcrowded with dishes, but the quality of the food is top, no one leaves there hungry. Not to forget the delicious cakes that you should definitely try. The Schützenhaus is really a very nice place, in every season, you always feel welcome. Many thanks to the team

We decided to stop at the Schützenhaus with 4 people and a dog. Even though we didn't have a reservation and the place was pretty full, we received a very friendly welcome. The order was received quickly and extremely friendly. After a short wait we were served delicious food. It was plentiful, tasty and beautifully presented. The whole team there radiates joy of life and fun at work. We felt very comfortable and will certainly come back. Thank you so much keep it up!!

Our favorite schnitzel restaurant in the Palatinate, the gourmet schnitzel is top notch, always delicious, always warm service and our absolute recommendation before or after hiking!

Food good and plentiful. Service very friendly and accommodating. Gladly again.

Very family atmosphere and you are warmly welcomed. Food was really tasty 😋, would love to come back.

Good food made from fresh produce. Very nice service and restaurant management. Always my pleasure.

Here you are greeted by the boss - the food is home-style and tasty, reasonable prices and a nice atmosphere, delicious side salad and even a coffee on the house, what more could you wish for, nothing to complain about, gladly again

Simply fantastic! Super delicious food, great ambience and authentic, loving and reliable hosts. Always happy!!

Great food! We'll definitely be back.

It's a fantastic forest restaurant that you should definitely visit and reserve a table in advance.

As always, very tasty food. We'd love to come back

We would love to come back.👍 Landlady and crew are simply fabulous. At short notice, our elderly birthday child was serenaded. Simply great.🤗 Thank you also on behalf of the entire birthday group 👏👏

The Schützenhaus is highly recommended in both summer and winter! In summer there is a great atmosphere on the beautiful roof terrace with a view! The service was great every time, very friendly, the food was delicious, no long waiting times!

Went there to celebrate my birthday with family for the first time today. Super fast service, even though the restaurant was very busy. Food great!!! Great value for money. Super nice staff and the owners are just great. A lovely birthday in a lovely atmosphere.

By chance we came across this wonderful Schützenhaus forest restaurant while hiking with our dog. Although the restaurant was very full, we spontaneously managed to get a place for 2 people and a large dog, so we were probably very lucky because it is better to make a reservation there, as it is always very busy here. We were warmly welcomed and made happy with excellent dishes. The good meal was of course rounded off with Palatinate wine spritzer. We felt very comfortable here and the landlord, his family and team were more than friendly and accommodating. This forest restaurant is our absolute insider tip. Thank you for the perfect end to our hike. Kind regards from the Mannheim/Heidelberg area 🐕 We would love to come back.😉

Good food at good prices. Recommended.

Very nice staff, great food, everything was great. Highly recommended if you want really good food you have to go there, keep it up.

Everything fine! Highly recommended ❤️

Very friendly service, good food, great sauces and crisp fresh salad. We will definitely come back and recommend you to others. And Theo the boss is a great guy. Thank you for the enjoyable and fun evening.

We had pre-ordered for 4 p.m. on Boxing Day for 14 people. When we arrived we were told that there was no space available and that that was the way it was now and there was nothing we could do about it. I think that's an outrage, you shouldn't treat guests like that (I can't recommend it....

We had already reserved a table three months ago for a family dinner together at Christmas. When we arrived shortly before the reserved time, the table was not yet free and the waitress' comment was that she couldn't do it now, she had to seat us at two tables. Great, this is how you imagine a family Christmas dinner. When we pointed out that we wanted to sit together, she said there was nothing she could do about it. That’s it for us on the topic of Schützenhaus. We had a delicious meal somewhere else.

Good food, friendly service. Boxing Day was busy, but it was managed well and we still didn't have to wait long for our food.

We have been here several times in the restaurant and on the terrace, we have always received very friendly service, the food was excellent and prepared with love. A nice atmosphere. We always enjoy coming back.

Have been here several times and always been completely satisfied, very friendly service, there is also water for the dog. Definitely try the super delicious cake. There is still room for improvement regarding vegetarian dishes and selection.

Super delicious food and very nice people! We felt comfortable and will definitely come back 👍🏼

Food delicious, service very nice, gladly again

You are doing everything right! Cozy atmosphere, hospitality, great service and, last but not least, really delicious food, what more could you want? We'll be back and definitely recommend you!

Food very good, price very reasonable! Unfortunately it's very full, which is good for this place speaks! Service very good and very friendly! Come back♥️

We were a group of 11 people and spent a wonderful afternoon here. Eat well and enjoy great service. Simply beautiful and recommended!!!

Very tasty food and a very special team greetings Tana

Very tasty food Friendly service We were very satisfied

After our hike we went back to the Schützenhaus. As a precaution, our hiking guide has reserved a table for 10 people. That was a good thing, as the Schützenhaus was well attended in the afternoon. There was something for every taste in food and drink and the service girls did a great job 😊 That's why we'd be happy to come back when we go on a hike there.

Spent a lovely afternoon here today, with delicious food and drink and a great atmosphere!

Very nice hosts, the Schützenhaus is a great place to stay (after the hike). We've been there several times and will be back!

The food isn't bad even though I was disappointed with the currywurst. The shop isn't exactly comfortable and is way too loud. Unfortunately, communication at normal volume is not possible. The tables are also very narrow.

We went to the Essen restaurant after archery before Christmas 2022, the food was great and I tested it several times. The service is very friendly, especially the boss is always up for a nice chat and is happy to give out a quick espresso. I will definitely end up eating there more often.

We are visiting friends and come from Münsterland. Luckily we got a table with our friends. We are thrilled by the nice people in the service and the food. We will definitely come back. Thank you for the lovely evening.

Very nice staff, good food and a nice atmosphere

It was great again in the Schützenhaus...love and great hospitality, we also got a water bowl for the dogs 👍 delicious food...and great music from the owner (I love life🎶)....you feel very comfortable the nice open people 😍

Great restaurant, great service and very good, rich food, large selection. Everything was fine.

We from NW-Hambach like to make the journey to enjoy the always very good food in the great location with always nice and friendly staff. Our friends to whom we recommended the Schützenhaus are also enthusiastic. Pia and Manfred Altrock

From the first contact with the Palatinate (education gap) when making a reservation by telephone, you only experienced friendliness. This is how the visit continued. Great service, great hospitality, brilliantly authentic food. This is how gastronomy works. We wish you continued fun and success.

Were there for the first time today and we were thrilled. Rustic atmosphere, delicious food at a more than fair price and very friendly staff including the boss and chef 😋👍🏻

Totally great atmosphere. The employees are super nice and always make sure everything is ok. The food is super delicious. I've been there more often now with friends and no matter what I've eaten so far has been very tasty.

Delicious food, nice host and nice restaurant. Ate schnitzel, super tasty and very large portions. Children got free ice cream. Everyone was full and very happy. In summer there is a terrace with a very nice view, today we were in the restaurant. Highly recommended, we would love to come back.

Super great team up there, will definitely come back

A nice place to stay. Since I didn't eat anything, I can't rate it. What I saw looked delicious though. The staff was very attentive and friendly. I'll come back and then I'll eat something too 😉 I've eaten at the Schützenhaus twice now and was very impressed. I have rarely eaten such a good cream schnitzel. My companion also really enjoyed her tarte flambée. We'll definitely come by again. A little tip: I would reserve a table for a weekend visit. On both Sundays that I was there, all the seats were taken around 12:30 p.m. Bon appetit

Very good food and super lovely owners and staff 😊

Great service, delicious food, everything was just great! Only to recommend. 🤗

Very cozy and personally run restaurant. Palatinate dishes prepared very tasty. Highly recommended. The service staff is also very friendly and fulfills every wish.

Great food, great service, very cozy atmosphere with friendly owners! Can highly recommend! And we'll be back! Super!!!

Super delicious food. Very cozy 🫶🏻 Staff is always friendly. Dogs are welcome. Feel free to come here, unfortunately it doesn't work that often. Food is always freshly prepared. In summer, the large beer garden invites you to linger. Beautiful view of the valley towards Bad Dürkheim.

If you want to recharge your battery after hiking, this is the right place for you. Cozy Palatinate atmosphere, friendly service and super delicious food at an unbeatable price. Reservation recommended

As always, super tasty...service 💯👌

I always enjoy eating there. Always meet dear contemporaries for a chat.

Thank you Anja & Theo and their amazing team! Rarely in my life have I received such a warm welcome, top cuisine, it was just really good, always happy again!!!!! We'll definitely see each other again!!!! Keep it up you people from Palestine 😉

Great, everything is fine, were there again on Sunday Have pork cheeks We have never eaten such a good, hearty meal before Also really inexpensive. Greetings Erwin

Nice restaurant with delicious, typical Palatinate food and friendly service. Reservation recommended. Easily accessible on foot from Bad Dürkheim in about 45 minutes, of course you can also take the car 😉
