Walhalla Wikinger Restaurant in Großefehn

Amazing restaurant. We came across it by chance 2 years ago and have been coming around since then whenever possible. The food is super tasty and the ambience is great.

Honest! I have rarely eaten as well as I did there. Nor did we spend the evening somewhere more comfortable. Highly recommended. Everyone is very friendly and tries to make the customer happy. Only recommended Always my pleasure

Very good atmosphere, very nice owners and employees. We went to the best of meat and it was very, very good food with entertainment. We'll definitely be back.

Very tasty food in an original environment, very friendly staff! We'd love to come back!

Everything was great, the food was very tasty and the atmosphere and service was great

We stopped here for dinner on the way back from Groningen to Cuxhaven. We were thrilled the second time too. We would be happy to come back again, even if the journey there and back takes 2 hours each.

I ordered a steak for €35, it arrived without herb butter, potatoes cold, steak also cold and over medium rare. If we complained to the waitress, the same steak came back. Everything was hot, but the cut steak was pushed back into the pan... is that allowed? Of course that was completely over. I went to the kitchen with the plate, the cook took it off, shouted oh my god and marched back again. Afterwards he came to our table and said we should pay immediately and leave. She would never have had such guests before... ah, of course not only with me, but also with my friend. Three other guests at the table were happy with their food. Service beyond the boss was great.

We went there relatively regularly and enjoyed taking guests there. Today we were there again. Two of us ordered steak medium. When the food came, both the steaks and the side dishes were cold. After we complained about the cold food, the steaks, which had been ordered medium and had already been cut, were warmed up and brought back to the table. Of course they were through. This is an absolute no-go and absurd, especially given the price. After we complained about this, we were insulted badly by the boss. We really appreciate the Walhalla so far, but after the cancellation today we really have to think about whether we will come back. This was more than embarrassing for us and our guests and was subterranean behavior from an entrepreneur!

Disaster. Ordered a 35 euro steak medium. Received a plate on which the steak was slightly overcooked and the side dishes were also cold. Friendly complained to the waitress, the boss brought the plate back a bit briskly. The food was warm but the same cut steak, now clearly overcooked (more like done) and woody and dry from below due to overcooking. The boss is not able to deal with criticism professionally and uses an abusive tone towards me when the house is full. But the shop is very nice and the staff is friendly and very respectful.

At first we thought, based on the pictures and the reviews, that we could spend a nice evening here. But appearances are deceiving. While the ambience was okay and the conditions were very nice and accommodating, the food was a bitter disappointment. Not only was it relatively cold, it was also completely tasteless. Really, there were no spices whatsoever. The salt shaker may have passed the potato wedges in a hurry, but it didn't hit them. The sauerkraut, red cabbage and carrot vegetables obviously came fresh from the can. The chicken was bone dry, as were the minced meat balls. And charging over 20 euros per dish is correspondingly cheeky. We definitely won't be coming back again.

Unbelievable things happened at the next table. The guests complained that the food was lukewarm and then the boss gave them the steak warmed up. She didn't indulge in insults either. We were immediately afraid and preferred not to say anything more about our food. I'd rather not go there anymore.

I can only recommend it, even if it is quite expensive.

Something different. We enjoyed live music and buffet and really enjoyed it. Gladly again!!!

Hello, the link to the menu on the website that was thankfully provided is unfortunately dead, it's a shame, I would have been quite interested in the price structure. Nevertheless, all the best for the company, stay healthy.

Top restaurant, the ambience makes you feel like you are in a large Viking house. The staff wears typical Viking garb, are super friendly, always present but never intrusive. The food was extremely good and is highly recommended!! If there were bonus stars, I would give them here immediately.

We went to the Irish theme evening and were absolutely thrilled. All 4 of us rolled out afterwards because it was so delicious. Our daughter was also wonderfully looked after and entertained by the staff, thank you again for that.

If you've always wanted to feast like a Viking without first building a longship or slaying a dragon, then the Walhalla Viking Restaurant is the right place for you. There is not only good, solid food here, but also a good portion of atmosphere. The ambience is lovingly designed, rustic, atmospheric and simply exactly what you imagine a festive Viking feast to be like. The wood creaks, the horns are ready, and if you want, you are welcome to appear in appropriate outfit. What's particularly nice is that large groups are also welcome. Whether it's a family celebration, a birthday or simply a meeting with your own Viking clan, you can eat, laugh and drink together here. The food is strong, down-to-earth and filling. No frills, just honest cuisine, the kind Torfinn, son of Olaf, would have enjoyed after a long day at sea. My only small criticism is that the dishes could have been seasoned a little bolder. A touch more fire on the tongue would have been good. Reservations are recommended on certain days. Word gets around where it's good and it can get crowded. If you want to be on the safe side, call ahead. If you come by spontaneously, with a bit of luck you still have the chance to get a spot. Personally, I really enjoy such concepts. Food that not only fills you up but also makes you happy, combined with an environment that takes you away from everyday life. Walhalla is a restaurant that you don't just visit, but experience. And I'd love to come back.

Today, an Irish evening Means live music that was really good Plus a buffet with authentic cuisine Very good!!

It was incredibly loud in the restaurant due to a large group. The food was ok, but nothing special and the portions were rather small. The price was far too high for that. We had to wait a long time for the order and the food. The way we deal with criticism (in this case it was just a small comment) should be reconsidered. The ambience is well done.

That's what I call the finest gastronomy experience! Impressive ambience with great attention to detail, food at its best, service and owner very friendly! We'd love to come back!

I was a guest at Walhalla for the first time. So I can NOT complain in ANY way. Food (falconer/oriental evening event), service, cleanliness, friendliness, everything was more than perfect for me. Thanks for a great evening🫶

Nice ambiance and very friendly staff... BUT: We were there tonight for a themed evening focusing on oriental food and falconry. There was a buffet with beef goulash, lamb, fish, and a few other side dishes. Unfortunately, there's no unique selling point in any of the areas, and the food is at best home-style cooking - nicely cooked. There was no spice palette. The dishes were lightly spiced, which you could probably make better at home. The "oriental" spice palette would certainly add a lot, but unfortunately, none were used. A uniformed fish fillet, which I now assume was frozen due to the uniformity of its shape and the breading. Buffet for 2 people, with 2 Diet Cokes and a Mezzo Mix €92.50 Unfortunately, the price was far too high for the taste of the food. Assuming there was an additional fee for the event, well... Without wishing to be rude, I can cook this at home with better quality. Unfortunately, based on my impressions today, I would have to say that I wouldn't visit this restaurant again. Too expensive for too little...

Thank you very much for a lovely, enjoyable evening in a special ambience. The food was extremely tasty and the service was warm and left nothing to be desired.

Great service, great ambience. The food was great, we'll definitely see each other again

Participated in BBQ 2.0 with friends. Delicious food. The portions may seem small, but 8 courses of different types of meat really fill you up. Recommended

Went there again this evening and, like every time, it was simply delicious. The atmosphere there is very special and rustic and cozy, reminiscent of a Viking longhouse, the staff is extremely friendly, attentive and hard-working and the food is simply amazing. Fresh and homemade of the best quality, special and intense aromas from the smoker. A great restaurant that is absolutely recommended, a visit here is an experience every time!

We were there with our camp to celebrate the start of the season, table at 8 p.m. Unfortunately, we weren't told in advance that the kitchen was only open until 9 p.m. (I didn't find it on the website until now). We still didn't get any food, but the amount we received wasn't enough for the prices and most of us didn't get enough. If you feel drawn to the ambience by the pictures, the walls are only wallpapered in a wood look. But the tables and chairs themselves are great

You don't find a setting like this every day. Great ambiance, friendly staff, and an exceptional menu. The food was very good (Thor's thunderballs are a hit), and the kids loved their pancakes. Highly recommended; certainly not our last stay there.

It was a really great meal and a lovely evening. Very friendly, really great location. Great food, not necessarily "cheap," but something special and worth every penny. If there's anything missing or too little, just speak up, we got it all. After a successful evening and a few beers, we were even allowed to spend the night in the car park with our camper. We'll be back, thank you very much.

Amazing atmosphere 🤘 The enthusiasm lasted from the first to the last second of my visit there ⭐️ The operators' attention to detail on the subject of Vikings is convincing. As a guest you immediately get the feeling of entering a completely different world ⭐️ Great selection of titles for the background music and very friendly operation immediately lifts the mood ⭐️ The large selection of food and drinks leaves nothing to be desired ⭐️ At this point I envy everyone who lives nearby and has the opportunity to eat their way through the menu 😄 My personal recommendation is the Odins beer with mead 🍺 that's the perfect start to a great evening ⭐️ All in all, it was a great evening and definitely worth further visits for me personally 😊 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Food is decent, thunderballs were only warm on the outside and the cheese in the middle was already cold when served. A bit more warmth was missing for a Viking/Medieval restaurant. (Cinnamon and sugar for the pancake should contain more sugar than cinnamon)

Excellent eatery. Price-performance ratio hard to beat. The events on Wednesdays are highly recommended. Tip: book a table in advance. Especially at the events. Unfortunately only 5 stars can be awarded.

We ate there for the first time and loved it. Everything was right. The food was delicious and plentiful. The service is top. We'll be back.

Location very good Starter salad, unimaginative and clearly too small Main course steak, very tasty but again too small. At a price of over €30, you have to be full and not look for the hope of satiety in pea puree. Unfortunately, dishes like flamed salmon were not yet ready at 6:30 p.m. The kitchen needs to be optimized. Other items on the card were also not “in stock” Staff very friendly. Conclusion: You can do it once, it's just as good somewhere else.

Super nice location and very tasty food. Friendly service, we are very satisfied and would like to come back.

We were there this evening and wanted to pre-test for our wedding! And what can I say: it was great!! The service and the owners were super nice and had already discussed a little with us about the Viking feast. The food was super tasty and sufficient! (So ​​if you don't get full here, you should question the amounts you are consuming). In any case, we're looking forward to our wedding day with you ♡♡♡ (we'll even come dressed ♡).

Super tasty 😋 Totally lovely people 👍 Thank you so much 🙏 ❤️

Food great! Service was super nice and friendly! You have to see the atmosphere! There is love in the details here! We'll definitely be back! Unforgettable evening!

No, not recommended. Ambiance has become quite nice. Here and there something is still missing for the Viking feeling. Service is friendly and okay. Food is pure minimalism at completely exorbitant prices for a location in the middle of nowhere. Starter soup (in my case) from the bag/frozen, main course tasted okay, but quite manageable. There were four of us there and at the end we ordered a LARGE cheese plate. The amount would have fit on a slice of bread. Bread not baked in-house, cheese from the supermarket (cheap cheese like Babybell) and all for €18.50. An absolute no-go.

A successful place, made like a longhouse and cozy. Unfortunately the food was just mediocre. The mushroom soup tasted like it came from a can or a bag, the main course and salad lacked any form of sophistication, both in terms of taste and appearance. The highlight was the service, with a North German snout and a lot of heart.

We had a very nice evening, the food was very tasty 😋. Very friendly staff. 👌

Super cool location, nice owners and delicious food ☺️👍

On Saturday we visited the "Walhalla" in Großefehn with four people and had a lovely evening overall. The food was delicious, but the salad could have been a little more varied - it only consisted of iceberg lettuce with a very sweet dressing that we didn't like. The main courses tasted good, but the portions could have been a little larger (especially given the prices) so that you would be full. The dessert was also rather ironic with the colorful sprinkles. The atmosphere is basically consistent, but could seem even more authentic with a few adjustments. The decoration was partly inappropriate and disrupted the concept, the children's corner seemed outdated, and the counter was a bit untidy - private items such as cell phones and keys were lying around openly. Wearing the thematic costumes was also not implemented consistently. A little background music and matching cutlery and glasses could round off the experience. If no public WiFi is offered for guests (perfectly okay), it would also make sense to make the internal WiFi invisible - then not all guests will ask for it. Overall, a nice restaurant with potential for improvements to make the theme even more atmospheric and consistent. We'll be back!

The name says it all:) ..a great experience eating there

The ambience was very appealing, the food was far too expensive for the quantity, bread dried out, after a complaint frozen bread was put out.

This is a special place with an atmosphere, well done and very authentic

Very nice restaurant, with a great ambience. Very nice service, large portions at reasonable prices.

A unique atmosphere with great attention to detail. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Even though we made reservations at a popular time, we hardly had to wait for our food. There's a good selection that makes it really difficult to decide, so it's definitely worth more than one visit. Little guests are also taken into account. The dishes were also very tasty 😋. We'd love to come back

Great atmosphere, very nice service, great food! Definitely come again!

Great ambience, lots of wood, furs, the service ladies in Viking clothing, well done. Food super quick and super tasty, but be careful, it's also expensive. You also pay for the ambience.

Rest of the rustic restaurant with very nice service

Once again excellent ❤️ everything was great, delicious, excellent quality of the meat

We had imagined more, the ambience was good, the staff was absolutely top, but the food was really disappointing, steaks were too well done and dry, fish was fried for too long, fillets were few and dry... salad, oh dear, some iceberg lettuce with it a piece of orange and some sauce, sorry, unfortunately we won't eat here again

Great themed restaurant in Viking style. The service made an effort, the tone was curt and sounded very annoyed. The food was on the table shortly after the drinks, all the side dishes were kept warm (and cold) in the kitchen and the steak was OK. The flamed salmon, actually a signature dish, was out, as was the smoked chicken leg. The neighboring table also complained about the cold food. The salad plate was a 'handful' of iceberg lettuce floating in dressing and garnished with half an orange slice. (?) The restaurant definitely has potential, but unfortunately the implementation is anything but professional. It's a shame that there isn't enough more.

This was my third time here and it is my absolute favorite restaurant. Unfortunately it's almost 400km each way, otherwise I would be here more often. Both the event with live music and buffet as well as the food a la carte are simply incredibly delicious, you can taste that everything is homemade and fresh. The atmosphere is simply brilliant, the staff are friendly, attentive, authentic and always with a smile on their faces. I'll be back!

Very nice atmosphere. We were there at 5 p.m., our food came quickly, but unfortunately it was only lukewarm. Portion size too small (I didn't get full), but the prices were pretty high. Salad is rather simple (just iceberg with dressing).

We've been there four times in three years and we still feel very comfortable, it's a nice climate and very tasty food, the service was again really friendly and personable today. We will definitely come back because everything in this restaurant is just right for us.

Something special for a tasteful evening. The food is great “home cooking” and noticeably freshly cooked. Of course you notice the meat burden in the buffet price, but you can't say anything negative about price-performance. Meat was tender, juicy and to the point (a special achievement in the buffet). The sauces were individual and the duck had a great orange note. The sauces and dressing were also well balanced. I would particularly highlight the sauce for the salmon, great freshness and good spice notes with great sensory properties.

It was really good. Our new favorite restaurant. We can only recommend it

Were there for the third time, at Christmas time with the family! The ambience, the food and the service were great! We’d love to come back 😉

So the food was okay, the service left a lot to be desired... Especially when eating a buffet it takes so long until something arrives...

Were there at the Christmas buffet It was super good for the first time. Everyone was super nice and friendly, the food was very tasty, nice atmosphere and you feel like family. Highly recommended and we will be happy to come back.

Very nice restaurant. Were there for the third time. And always super tasty, friendly service, a visit is worth it.

We were here for the first time today. The food was from the buffet, it was very tasty and we liked the atmosphere. We'll be back.

Unique ambience! Very good service! Super delicious food! A very good and absolutely clean changing option for babies! Dog friendly! We were there on our wedding day and also received lovely table decorations. Thank you for the lovely evening with you! We give our recommendation and will definitely come back.

The restaurant looks inconspicuous from the outside, but everything fits perfectly inside and you are overwhelmed by what a cozy location you can make out of such a building. The dishes are homemade and prepared with a lot of work and no matter what you try, you will like it. The portions are definitely filling and the price-performance ratio is also great with starters and desserts and some drinks remaining at around €50 per person. We were eating dishes from the menu with a larger group of people and everything came very quickly, no one was left out. The staff is attentive and caring. This restaurant is worth a visit.

We had a perfect BBQ evening! Thank you for that! Very very tasty food. Great price-performance ratio! We'd love to come back!

It was a family evening. You feel in great hands and the food was served as a delicious buffet that evening.

Visiting here is a MUST if you are in the area. Ambience is quaint and great. The service from the shield maidens cannot be topped. The menu is something special - just like the recreated Viking longhouse. My tip is the Viking buffet. Check the dates before your visit!

Great location....just had a drink....will come back.....

The atmosphere is unique. Service was exceptional and the food was simply brilliant. We'd love to come back.

We were there just now, even though we didn't reserve a table for 5 people. Everyone was very friendly, super cool atmosphere, drinks and food arrived quickly, very tasty, reasonable portions and fair prices. We will definitely do this again. Absolutely recommended.

The portion was really small, I would have liked more potatoes and also some carrot salad with my flamed salmon. Or a second piece of salmon. Just one main course won't fill you up here. The choice of desserts is very limited, the blue cream irritated us at first. My tip: a pancake from the children's menu for dessert! The taste was good, but the salad beforehand was a bit of a tragedy.

"A true Viking feast! The food was incredibly delicious and the atmosphere was simply fantastic. The decor took me straight to the Middle Ages and the staff was super friendly. Definitely worth the trip!" we'll be back :-) greetings from NRW

In a nutshell You don't want to leave, the food is great, the ambience and especially the hospitality and politeness of the staff. It's rare to meet such lovely people. Thank you very much.

O noble wanderer, tarry so that I may tell you of the infamy of a banquet which took place in the halls of Valhalla, but which truly does not deserve the name it bears. So hear my words, that they may warn you to avoid this house of illusions! We had barely crossed the threshold when we received not a hospitable welcome, but the harsh hiss of the boss herself, who ruled over our table with eagle talons. The fire bowl of the house was still young, and yet, oh misfortune, some foods were refused to us. They pushed us away because we apparently weren't quick enough to decide when the hall was barely half full. At such an hour I felt the first pang of betrayal of hospitality. Our mead, that sweet drop that warms the throat of every warrior, remained cold as the north wind! We asked in vain to warm him by the fire, but they replied that the flames were full, as if the gods of the hearth themselves had laughed at us. Instead, all we received was scorn and defiance, not a word of apology, not a gesture of regret. We were even blamed for not ordering quickly enough because a larger table in front of us was claiming its spoils. And the meal, oh what a disgrace to a Viking's palate! The potato wedges, partly raw, partly prepared without love, were a mockery of the price we were asked for. We were not offered an opulent table, but dishes of stale simplicity that only mocked the hunger of a Viking. In the end we even had to rush to the bar to settle the bill, because the servants - the entire clan of the house - ate themselves and left the guests in miserable abandonment. The only praise I hesitate to give is to the scenery, which tried hard to evoke the spirit of a bygone era. But what use is a beautiful facade if hospitality, that sacred bond that binds host and guest, is trampled on? My brothers and sisters, avoid these halls if you value your pride and your gold! Valhalla may sound glorious in name, but in reality it is like a dilapidated longhouse where no true Viking would want to dine!

Great environment. Lovingly furnished. Nice staff and great food

Disaster. Absolutely not recommended. We made reservations in advance for two people and drove for an hour. Our reservation was for 6 p.m. when the restaurant opened. At the time, the restaurant was only visited by 3 groups besides us. We received the menu late, but were then pressured by the waitress to quickly decide on what to eat. Otherwise she would pick up the larger table first. I already said I would use the flamed salmon. It took my husband 2 minutes longer to read the menu. When the waitress came back, she said there was already no salmon left. She snapped in a very unfriendly manner, saying we should have made a decision quicker. Mind you, it was 6:25 p.m., about 5 minutes after receiving the card. Then we were ignored for another 20 minutes. When the drinks came, I asked if my mead could be warmed. This wasn't possible either, the stove would be occupied at the moment. We then had to stay hungry until 7:25 p.m. In retrospect, our evening for two could have been better at any other restaurant.

We were there for the third time and everything was perfect again. We will definitely go back often to enjoy the good food and best service in a beautiful atmosphere. Keep it up 👌👌👌

Delicious, Great service and very friendly

Super nice and fast service. Thumbs up again 👍

Service and ambience were great, unfortunately my dish wasn't served but it was fixed straight away

Great restaurant, very nice hosts, very welcoming. You immediately feel comfortable. The food was very tasty and there was something for everyone. We'll definitely be back. Completely satisfied.

A very nice clocky restaurant. The food was very tasty, the service was great. Price/performance top. Short wait until the food came. I really liked the menu, which matched the Viking theme. The portion on the plate was more than enough. As a woman, I recommend wearing leggings. :D

We are always thrilled, a really great restaurant, everything is just right, highly recommended 👍👍👍

We have been looking for a restaurant for a very long time where all family members, whether vegan, vegetarian or flexitarian, can eat together without compromise. In Walhalla we found this location in a rustic, great atmosphere. 👍

We went to the Viking Restaurant for the first time today and are thrilled 💯👍🏻 Ambiance. 10/5 Food 10/5 Staff 10/5 Price/performance 10/5 Looking forward to the next time

We were there for the first time. The food was good, traditional, the hall was well attended. Live music suited my taste on the Irish themed evening next door. I thought it was very nice that the entire staff received applause beforehand. Lovingly designed, service is top, buffet food was delicious. We come to one again at another time.

A remote treasure If you want to try home-style food in a stylish ambience, Walhalla is the right place for you. The restaurant transports its visitors to the adventurous world of the Vikings, with shields as decoration, a figure in chain mail at the entrance and a sailing ship inside. Furs make the seating more comfortable and add to the ambience. The food was first class. The taste of the dishes was very well balanced, the staff was super friendly and the presentation of the food had something old-fashioned about it. Not to mention the names of the dishes: Odin's revenge on the spit, Loki's soup, Ragnar's cauldron meat. Someone put a lot of effort into it. A note about getting there: It can be adventurous, depending on which direction you come from. Just follow the navigation system, it knows what it's doing. At the same time you can enjoy the landscape.

Beautiful decor, super friendly staff and delicious food at a very fair price.

A very nice atmosphere, super tasty food, good portions and super friendly staff. Worth an experience.

We spontaneously came across this restaurant today while searching the internet and were immediately impressed by the atmosphere when we arrived. Service was super friendly and questions would be answered gladly. I can't understand from reviews that the portions should be too small or too few. The food is simple but extremely tasty (I think that simple food is so rare these days) and more than enough. Next time we'll take the kids with us because we're sure it will be a culinary experience for them too. Keep it up. We'll be back.

Had dinner here again after a year, but traveled 2.5 hours. It was again very tasty, great atmosphere, nice conversations, great team, from the owner to the waitress. We would love to come back 👍 Everything was very tasty, I can recommend it to everyone

Celtic evening with the band Pangea, we were completely thrilled and would love to come back

Rather inconspicuous on the outside, the restaurant is superbly decorated on the inside. You almost feel like you're in an episode of Vikings. The service, having only been on the team for a week, was very friendly and confident with special requests. What was also great was that despite two families and two dogs, a nice place was found for us. (“No problem at all”) Unfortunately, the menu on the day of our visit to the fish area was quite thin, but for me that doesn't justify deducting points. The visit was definitely worth it. Portions are absolutely appropriate for the price and the food was very tasty. Pancakes on the children's menu were also very popular, as was the children's portion of a normal dish at a significantly reduced price. And the drinks menu is also impressive and the mead is “unfortunately” extremely drinkable. 😜 Both the food and the drinks menu will definitely be further tested when the opportunity arises. 🤤

We've never received our food so quickly. The food was very tasty and plentiful.

Great team.Good food. A “good source” for a nice evening 😃

Beautiful evening. The food was amazing. Steak to the point, I could have fallen for the pea puree, nothing more needs to be said about Guinness on tap 😇. The service was good and quick, tip top. My colleagues and I will be back🥰

It's a shame that so few people appreciate the effort that goes into the appropriate attire. Even on the theme days, only a few people get lost in the restaurant, which has a longhouse atmosphere and offers wonderfully delicious food! Everything is cooked by the landlady herself and the buffets are put together according to the theme. Everyone ⚠️ Attention! The quality of the food is really good and invites you to enjoy it. You can come here again and again.

The food was delicious, the service was very friendly and the atmosphere was very rustic. Ample parking, clean toilets and plenty of space at and around the table. Price performance is right.
