WALLCZKA in Köln

We visited Wallczka for the first time today. Excellent service and a very good meal. Highly recommended 🌸

A very cozy café for breakfast. We weren't entirely satisfied because they ran out of orange juice and there were no straws for our Aperol. Otherwise, everything was delicious. It would be great if there were a few cake variations on the menu.

There is heart in the store. Reflected in the food, service and design :)

Some of the dishes are quite creative, some are rather poorly presented, but they taste good, and the bread is very tasty. Overall, though, it's simply too expensive for what you get. The seating is very close together; the daily menu is posted on a blackboard somewhere, but you have to squeeze past various guests on your way in. What we found most unpleasant, however, was that you're given a time slot for your stay. There's no chance of sitting comfortably and drinking a glass of wine. Hospitality looks different; everything is strictly focused on profit.

You are really very cool, very tasty and very pleasant and kind to no end. Keep it up! Thank you very much for everything 🥰🙏✨

The restaurant was full, but we were still served politely and promptly. The food was very tasty and we are already looking forward to the next time😊

Fantastic food, great service and a wonderful atmosphere! A real gem in Cologne – we would love to come back!

Very good "tapas" restaurant. Young and innovative cuisine at fair prices.

The food is served in beautifully presented tapas portions and is perfect for sharing! It's nice that there are many different vegetable dishes and you can also get your fill healthily here. The service was courteous. The ambience is very minimalist and it is a bit cramped. I would always make a reservation. If the ambience isn't important to you, you can eat really well here.

Food was great, service not okay. We waited over an hour for our food and then still had 50 minutes to eat because of the 2 hour time slot.

Thank you very much, it was a great evening with my partner.

We've been here for the 4th time now. The food was always very tasty and top. However, the service could point out if it took a little longer. When we came the restaurant was almost empty and we waited over an hour for the food, which I don't find that exciting! What is not possible, however, given the high prices, is to receive tip instructions at the end on the bill about how much tip you should give, divided into % and satisfied, happy and speechless (over 10%). I was speechless too, but not in a good way! I find that very outrageous and I'm sure I'm not the only one who's upset about it! So please don't do something like that, it's not appropriate to print it on the invoice! Guests are not small children who need to be taught! (And for some it certainly has the exact opposite effect: namely that there are no tips!)

Had a great time at Wallczka! The food was fantastic, and the service was super friendly. The staff even helped us decide what to order, which was really nice. The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming, making it a perfect spot to enjoy a meal with friends. It was packed when we went, which added to the lively and fun vibe. Definitely looking forward to going back!

Everything was great, especially the service team was great. Friendly, warm, professional, you feel really comfortable!

The service team was great, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was really cozy

Absolute recommendation! The mezze are just the thing to try out and share with two or three people. A wide range of options for vegetarians, but anyone who craves meat will also find what they're looking for. Totally attentive and friendly service! Definitely try it out!

Super delicious food. Both breakfast and dinner are fantastic. Highly recommended!

Super nice restaurant with very nice staff - but the food is unfortunately disproportionately expensive - everything tastes good, but €40 per person for 2.5 mezzes each is not justified in terms of quality. There's nothing special about the food - sometimes the simplest things like salt and pepper were missing. And also: Immediately afterwards, both of them came out running smoothly again. 🤭

Nice location with very tasty food, something different. Friendly operation and fast service. We'd love to come back.

Everything was perfect all around. The lunch menu in particular is highly recommended. High quality food for a great price and always delicious! I'd love to come back :)

Very tasty dishes, large selection of vegetarian dishes and special flavor combinations. It drafts a little inside and is therefore a bit cold. Otherwise highly recommended.

The service is always amazing and everything I have ever tried here was great. The portions are a good size with a lot of fine flavours and cakes and coffee are amazing too. The only thing that never manages to convince me is the rösti which is usually soggy and greasy instead of crispy.

We ordered 4 different mezzes; Wild herbs salad, Flatbread white, Handmade Pierogi, Salmon Arancini Fried Risotto Balls. After the meal we ordered Crème Brûlée. Everything was great, definitely delicious, people working were so kind and helpful.

Be it spare ribs, kaarage chicken or wild boar sausage, all very good food, we decided to come back and try out the entire menu

Tasty, a bit loud Still overall rating good

The atmosphere was very cozy, nice ambience, very friendly service We are happy to be guests at Wallczka again

Cozy atmosphere, delicious food and very nice staff!

We had breakfast there and really enjoyed it. The offer is something different than the usual breakfasts, all the plates looked really nice and it was super tasty.

The banoffee pie is absolutely amazing! Super nice and professional service. I like being here both during the day and in the evening. The prices are absolutely justified by the quality and the ambience. I would love to be here every day if I could afford it

I had a very tasty tomato soup with pesto and parmesan for a good price.

Very very good food. Unfortunately the menu hasn't changed for years

Everything exactly to my taste!

Good service and very tasty food at all times. The cakes are a dream especially the peanut tarts. A must go in Neuehrenfeld

The food was very, very good. Lots of vegetables and sophisticated dishes. As a vegetarian, I had a huge choice. The dishes can also be cooked vegan. Very nice service and nice ambience. I'll be back.

Very friendly, pleasant staff, quick and unobtrusive. Parking is possible if you are lucky or in the parking garage 5 minutes away.

Subbelrather Strasse, on the outskirts of the city, is a real insider tip for fans of advanced gourmet culture. There is, among other things, a great wine shop, a fine little Italian butcher/snack bar, ambitious cafes/bakeries - and the Wallczka. Atmospheric, distinctive bistro with a weekly menu that changes daily, creative evening dishes and a varied breakfast menu. Everything is prepared with love. Classics of the house: the imaginative mezze in the evening. For lunch we had great pierogi, which took me back to old Poland/Russia travel adventures, and great potato rosti with various toppings. All served by consistently charming and attentive service. Plus lots of creative hot drinks, homemade lemonades and a good selection of wines. Absolutely worthwhile visit!

Super tasty food, pleasant portions, enough selection and nice service, in a simple, modern and yet cozy atmosphere

As always, outstanding. For me the best brunch spot in Cologne.

I have been able to highly recommend the location and the menu for several years now, even if the price structure is on the higher side. Unfortunately, it is often very crowded and therefore sometimes it is acoustically difficult to have a conversation. Unfortunately, I didn't find the toilets really clean today again, which doesn't match the standard of the restaurant.

Very nice staff who responded flexibly to our wishes. The food is extremely delicious. And just something that stands out from the crowd. Thank you for the lovely evening.

Super nice staff, even without a reservation we managed to get a table and were given a very warm welcome! Very good food and, despite the tapas concept, sufficiently large portions! I would have loved to buy a loaf of bread because it was so delicious! 💗

Unfortunately, the place on the large window is very drafty. The ambience is therefore less cozy than it seems.

Very tasty food, we couldn't decide which of the vegetarian variations tasted best

A very harmonious overall package. Very tasty food in portions to share, very nice and attentive service. You immediately feel at home in the district.

Mega friendly and warm service lady. Today it was quite empty and fortunately not as crowded as usual - it is very loud. The fresh pasta a la putanesca was solid. I'll be back!

Great food! Super nice people who work there. I'd love to come back. The star deduction for the ambience is because, at least in winter, when the door opens, a cold breeze always blows through the restaurant. In my opinion, the white tables don't really fit into the otherwise very cozy restaurant, natural wood would be better :) But all of this is complaining at a high level. I'm already looking forward to the next time :)

Top service and very friendly! The food tasted great and I'm a big fan of the system with a small card on which you can directly mark your selection! Happy to come back :)

Have eaten there many times over the years. Both for breakfast and in the evening. The price-performance ratio is right in my opinion. Food is always really great. There is still room for improvement when it comes to cocktails and long drinks. Really not that great, so I prefer wine. When it comes to service, it's like in all stores: It depends on who is working, with how much experience and know-how. A little more attentiveness would be good. Unfortunately, the acoustics at full house are a disaster. Overly loud. But that doesn't stop us from continuing to come.

The food was delicious and the service was great. You don't find it often anymore. Big recommendation.

A charming, cozy restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. The service is attentive and always strives to ensure that guests have a pleasant stay. The price-performance ratio could be a little more balanced, and the room feels a bit cramped in places - still a nice place for a relaxed evening.

Excellent service, Excellent dishes

The best! Thank you for the atmosphere and tasty brunch ❤️

I cannot understand the large number of positive reviews because the offering and quality are rather average. The breakfast was carelessly prepared with watery scrambled eggs, the coffee was so-so, the service was more of the inattentive variety and the sober ambience doesn't exactly invite you to linger. Given the prices, I get more for less elsewhere and feel more comfortable.

Gemütlich, guter Service! Lecker! Zum weiter empfehlen. Wir kommen wieder. Der Maracuja cheesecake hat es mir angetan

Very tasty food with new tastes. Service was great!

A very relaxed evening, with super nice staff & absolutely delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Super tasty mezze, great wine and excellent service.

Very nice resto with a small menu and unusual dishes. Nice drinks menu and great service - I felt welcome as a guest! The ambience is rather spartan and since the restaurant was relatively empty (lunchtime) I didn't find it all that cozy - it's a matter of taste

Great restaurant in Neuehrenfeld. The food is really exceptionally tasty and the small portions mean you can try a lot of different things. The cakes for dessert are also unbeatably good. The staff is discreet, very friendly and professional. The rooms are barrier-free and the toilet is accessible for wheelchair users. Absolute recommendation!

Delicious food, lots of vegan options and great, nice service

I went there twice because friends of mine wanted to go. The menu consists of a kind of modern East-West fusion cuisine. It has Asian as well as Polish influences. Unfortunately, the implementation of the individual notes in the dishes can still be improved and overall the taste of the kimchi pancake doesn't harmonize for me. The dough is too thick. The Sauvignon Blanc was delicious. I think the atmosphere is beautiful, so it's a good idea for a date. Otherwise I wouldn't necessarily go here because of the food.

Modern, young restaurant with some rather unusual dishes.

It was a perfect mezze evening, thank you

Nice atmosphere, good selection of drinks, very tasty food. Depending on the selection, 2-3 mezzes per person are enough to fill you up. The only drawback: the 2-hour reservation slot is too short for a leisurely meal with an aperitif and coffee.

Very very tasty 😋 you have to try it, service top food super delicious 😋

What an enjoyable Wallczka evening * CéstCa! A bit fresh at the entrance, yes ;)

Very tasty selection of dishes and great service. Happy to come back!

Best service. Best food. Absolutely worth it.

Great food, small portions, service a bit slow

it was very nice with you!!! would love to come back :)

We were in Wallczka for the first time. As is often the case with vegans and meat eaters...everyone found what they were looking for in Wallczka. And very tasty. Our two dogs weren't a problem either (but had mentioned them when making the reservation as a precaution). The service was excellent. Conclusion: An all-round successful evening! We'll be back.

Everything is a dream, a bit reverberant and therefore loud. Overall 9.5 out of 10 ♥️

Attentive and helpful staff with absolutely amazing food. My husband and I shared 5 plates plus some delicious bread and were very impressed with the flavours. Would highly recommend.

To have an unusual, interestingly seasoned, very tasty and inexpensive meal served in a very friendly manner in a pleasant atmosphere is extraordinary and worth mentioning. Thanks for the nice evening!

Food excellent, atmosphere not so inviting, service nice but we waited a long time to place our order. But we still felt very comfortable and would be happy to come back when we are in Cologne again.

It's always delicious, unusual and just nice at Walllzcka. Great recommendation!

It was incredible! The principle of this establishment is that you choose 2-4 small dishes. I was surprised at how you need to order, then they bring a sheet of paper where all the dishes are written and you need to cross out what you want to try today. My recommendation is dumplings and goat cheese, it was very tasty.

The food was very tasty, with good portions to share. I can only recommend this restaurant.

Great location, very tasty food, very friendly people. I always enjoy coming back to Wallczka.

Very good and creative food - attentive, friendly service.

Super super tasty, have been there 4 times!

The food was ok, but nothing special. Unfortunately the prices are not appropriate.

We treated ourselves to delicious drinks during happy hour on the terrace. Always nice with you! The food is also amazing and you always feel completely at home after an evening at Wallczka!

Great food! Very tasty and nice concept to share. The two of us ate 4 plates and were super full :) Definitely coming again.

Nice place, something different. The dining room is a bit noisy and the terrace on the street is less suitable for a romantic dinner. Food quality and selection are very good. Great place for a solid meal.

Menu sufficient but still quite “short” at 1:30 p.m. Food ok But partly without the ingredients mentioned (salmon without creme fraiche) and moderately seasoned. Sweet potato fries overpriced. Service quite friendly. In terms of price, it's on the higher end. You sit outside on simple chairs right on the street.

A nice and welcoming place, simple in management, with interesting ideas of fusion of flavours, between traditional ingredients and Mediterranean and oriental ideas; some very successful, a couple a little less. my advice is to take several dishes to share, as is done at tables in countries such as Greece or the Middle East. Good quality/price balance

Exceptionally good food for very reasonable prices.

Try this place out for a weekend brunch. These are really generous portions and they do fill you up a lot. All the dishes we ordered were tasty and delicious. Service was great and it is just a very quaint setup which is a real change to the manicured places that you usually find.

There are one or two good restaurants in Ehrenfeld, but sometimes you can also find hidden gems like WALLCZKA that just go one better. The food deserves 6 stars rather than 5 stars. A great atmosphere and service that you rarely experience anymore. Our waitress (Annouschka?) was simply great. Mega friendly, competent, funny and warm. Be sure to ask her about her culinary insider tips!!! All in all an absolute recommendation!

Very good food for cheap prices!

Super delicious food. 👌👌👌 Great, attentive waiter. Must be reserved in advance. There were five of us on Saturday and everyone really enjoyed it. We'll be back👍🏼

A very nice evening 🥰…keep it up dear ones🫶🏽

Great, the best breakfast in Cologne!

Super friendly staff and really delicious food. Absolute recommendation!

Favorite restaurant in Ehrenfeld :)

We ate here to celebrate our wedding and it was absolutely perfect. We were able to choose wines in advance and were given very nice advice. In general, the care and service was super friendly and accommodating. The food was very tasty. An unreserved recommendation! :)

Wonderful place for a good evening with delicious food and pleasant vibes. The menu is small but varied and we wanted to order almost everything. A plate of mezze costs ~€11 and the two of us shared five, which filled us up quite well.

We were there on Saturday evening. The food is super tasty, beautifully prepared and unusual. However, the room is very bare and bland and at some point it was incredibly loud, which had more of a bar atmosphere than a restaurant atmosphere. You have to like it. It was too much for us to have a comfortable conversation. We would come back for the food, but then probably during the week.

I just love this store so much. Food great! Service top top!
