Weinstube Schnitzelbank in Heidelberg

Garlic schnitzel was great and good drink selection. Very nice staff who spoke English. Will definitely be back if I’m ever in Heidelberg again.

A small, quaint restaurant in the old town. Few seats and quite busy. On Sunday evening, at least two items of food were already sold out... The food was tasty, and the service was friendly.

Angenehme Atmosphäre, 100 Sorten Schnitzel – aber wirklich 100… Da fällt die Entscheidung schwer, aber der freundliche Besitzer hat uns bei der Auswahl geholfen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Delicious pepper schnitzel with spaetzle, optionally fried potatoes (including salad), and Riesling on tap are highly recommended. Service is cheerful and competent. Top-notch.

Lovely spot with great service and tasty food. It’s pretty cozy in there so can’t be too shy.

Authentic restaurant with excellent menu and great atmosphere.

Felt right at home as soon as I walked in. Shared table with others. Food sizes are generous but I was able to finish mine. Very cozy and loved everything.

Simply fantastic! Just what you'd expect. The Schnitzelbank in the heart of Heidelberg never disappoints. I've been there several times now and always had a great time. The ambiance is perfect, the food is good and not even that expensive, and the service is really friendly. The old wine bar where you sit, with its carved tables. Simply fantastic. This restaurant is definitely worth a visit if you're in Heidelberg!

Delicious food! One children's portion, one pepper schnitzel. Very successful. Real core competence.

Schnitzel so good I almost cried reserve if you can place gets full

L'endroit, la façade sont plutôt discrets...Mais l'intérieur est une fête tranquille, vous poussez la porte et vous voilà dans un cocon de bois et d'affiches de films de l'histoire du cinéma - Casablanca, l'Ange Bleu etc...Ce jusqu'au sous-sol. Avec une ambiance de quelques tables en conversation à un niveau décibel laissant les oreilles respirer. Çà c'est le décor. Pour les circonstances : En recherche de bon vins Allemands je m'y suis posé avec l'alibi de prendre un plat. Le moins cher.Juste comme émulatif palais Je me suis retrouvé avec non seulement au moins 2 vins intéressants sur 3 mais aussi en train de me découvrir un appétit sur ce mix saucisse , choucroute acclimatée différemment, qq chose de plus mûr , souple et je dirais légèrement cannelle? Pommes de terre sautées oignons légers lardons fins. Le tout était très bon. Vraiment plus complexe que l'idée qu'on se fait d'un ensemble robuste comme ceci. Le cuisinier, assez blagueur, était soucieux de savoir si le plat et les vins étaient ok . Son choix du dernier vin rouge correspondait à ma requête interrogative: à savoir : quel rouge correspondrait le mieux à ce plat? Bien vu , j'ai dorénavant une nouvelle destination pour un prochain voyage en Allemagne+ entre Colmar et Freiburg pour goûter les autre vins rouges de cette région là. Merci. Sans compter que je retournerai à Shnitzel Bank. N'hésitez pas à y être curieux ça vaut la peine que de s'intéresser à ce qu'ils ont à vous proposer. Absolument converti :) Et décidé à y goûter les escalopes puisqu' en fait c'est leur spécialité. Lol

Whenever we visit Heidelberg, we eat at this restaurant. Super delicious German food. Perfect value for money. Nice and attentive waiters. With an old dining room with a lot of personality.

Geek ahh food was too awesome staff very nice!

The schnitzel oasis in the barren frozen landscape. The service is charismatic and courteous, the schnitzels are juicy and delicious. The restaurant contributes to the perfect evening with its cozy atmosphere. Everything together is simply great and therefore worth 5 stars for me.

Very tasty schnitzel made according to the house style; super friendly charismatic staff. Great location and atmosphere where you forget about time

Just off the main street this small and cosy restaurant lies and wait for you. Walking through the doors we were welcomed by friendly staff. Sharing tables with other guests contributed to the warm and comfortable atmosphere. The food was fresh and tasty! And good value for money. Óf the best Schnitzels we've EVER had. We will definitely return! Thank you!

Walking into this really great looking, packed place ( it looks like its been around 100 years) at 6:00 without a reservation we were lucky to get a corner table with the admonition that it was reserved for 7:00. We happily accepted. Most folks were eating at communal tables and it was a case of strangers meeting strangers and quickly becoming fast friends by the looks of it. The majority were Americans looking for a schnitzle fix and they all seemed happy to have found it. Our rieslings arrived cold, crisp and delicious and excellent little German style side salds with them. Sadly it was all downhill after this. How they let my cord on bleu out of the kitchen is beyond me and if we'd had more time at the table I'd have promptly sent it back.. It was literally burnt black around the edges...a shame as the blue cheese and ham stuffing was yummy. My wife's schnitzle with pepper sauce was a bit better, this dry production saved by the slathering of sauce which helped her get this overcooked misfortune down. The potatoes , which looked good were cold. Having lived for 5 years in Germany back in the day , this is the first time I've ever been served a bad schnitzle....I guess it was a busy night for the kitchen but really...They certainly have cooked enough of them. On the plus side its a very fun place and the servers funny guys and I really liked the classic looks of the restaurant.

We had Saumagen with sauerkraut as well as schnitzel with mushroom cream sauce and homemade spaetzle – simply fantastic! Everything was super tasty and absolutely recommended. The atmosphere is very friendly and familiar, you immediately feel at home. We were there the evening before for two glasses of wine and everything was perfect there too. The restaurant was busy, which is of course a good sign. Definitely 10/10 – we would love to come back!

Very timely, great food! The people who work there are simply great!

Tip is automatically calculated. You must select 7%, 14%, or 21%. Delicious and nice atmosphere The downside is that there are too many Koreans.

Cozy and the service is very attentive. The dishes are extremely tasty.

It was very relaxed, good food at good prices, nice service and just a relaxed atmosphere.

Very tasty schnitzels, super funny waiters. Top. I'd love to come back.

It was great! Quaint little restaurant that was packed. The guys at the counter were relaxed and had everything under control. The wine was delicious, as were the schnitzels. Only the fresh air supply could be improved. It was hot and stuffy. Somehow it suited the store, but it was still a bit tiring in the long run.. 🥵

The two of us were here on Friday and had reserved in advance, which made sense. We knew from the reviews that we would be sitting at the table with strangers, so we thought for a while whether we really wanted to eat here on our trip to Heidelberg. We are more than happy that we ultimately decided to do so. The restaurant is quaint and cozy, we immediately felt at home. The portions are generous and taste excellent, everything is fresh and perfectly seasoned. The service is particularly noteworthy: friendly, humorous and relaxed despite the high number of guests. Sharing the table or workbench with strangers was definitely not a negative thing for us, quite the opposite. We exchanged a few words with our table neighbors, mainly food recommendations, but it was super nice and relaxed and added to the overall super positive and unique impression of the restaurant. We can completely recommend the schnitzel bench and will definitely come back!

Food (schnitzel with gorgonzola sauce) and wine absolutely perfect. But what makes the crucial difference: the service (or I think it was one of the owners) is just so incredibly nice and authentic. Really good guy! 1A store.

The food was very tasty. You could have the dish the way you wanted it, which I found very positive.

Nice rustic atmosphere. Just a slightly better beer selection would be good. And a little more space. But beer and “wine bars” - you can’t expect that. So a great place.

Lovely small restaurant. I went there as it had the best Google rating in the area and was not disappointed. The place was an old beer storage area and now has a few tables which you share with other diners. The food was very good and the service was warm and clever. The portions are rather large, so you can consider buying 1 plus a starter for two persons. I had the schnitzel with mushroom sauce, the onion soup (was a little salty) and salad - loved everything. For the schnitzels, they give an option between turkey and pork on all portions. Highly recommended.

Best best best ever! There is no schnitzel is wien like this.

Very iconic little room with a sensational owner and warm service.

Mega delicious food in a very cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Bien, aquí está el contenido de la revisión, siguiendo sus especificaciones: ¡Vaya, vaya! Desde el momento en que entré, el ambiente era acogedor. ¿La comida? Absolutamente divino. Cocinado a la perfección, sazonado impecablemente, y presentado de maravilla. El servicio fue de primera categoría; atento y amable. Una experiencia gastronómica verdaderamente excepcional. Muy recomendable!

If there were 10 stars we would give 10 stars. The Schnitzelbank is rustic and is run honestly, warmly and with a lot of fun at work. The cuisine is very tasty and the service lives gastronomy! Thanks for the great time!

Amazing. I wouldn't change anything. We had "A la Maison" and Garlic schnitzels, and they were delicious. A la Maison was absolutely amazing, the Spätzle was incredible, and portions were more than generous. These two Schnitzel came with a salad on the side which was also super good. Super recommended.

Nice staff and delicious schnitzel. Top 👍🏻 even if a bit cuddly.

Schöne kleine urige Weinbar und Restaurant mit Spitze Essen die etwas versteckt in einer Seitenstraße liegt Sehr freundlicher und zuvorkommender Service.

Excellent food, very cozy envriroment and the service was excellent as well. The staff was really helpful and friendly. We definitely recommend it!

We had a very delicious meal on Sunday afternoon and really, really great service! Nice to see that the waiter and waitress enjoy their job and give the guests a good time. :)

Very nice atmosphere in a small wine bar in the middle of Heidelberg. You mostly sit at old workbenches from a woodturnery, hence the name schnitzel bench. It has nothing to do with the famous German pork schnitzel. You definitely have to make a reservation. The staff is very friendly and helpful, even with spontaneous guests. The food is good but nothing special.

A very special restaurant with its own flair in the middle of Heidelberg, but not suitable for everyone. The schnitzels are good, but rather fatty and the garlic schnitzel “Lonely Nights” was, in my opinion, a good bit over the top in terms of garlic. It is difficult for introverted people, you tend to be thrown together at the narrow tables and the waiters are very direct and a bit touchy, the “you” is standard here. You have to like it. The menu is a little limited, no Cola Zero, no coffee, no mayo. All in all, very well rounded and an experience in itself.

Very tasty, rustic atmosphere, very nice service. Definitely recommended

For us, this restaurant is a gastronomic highlight in the old town of Heidelberg......rustic wine tavern (only bottled beer is available) with a great, funny service team.....reserving in advance by telephone is almost pointless and unsuccessful...no one answers the phone...the place is also buzzing. It's tight and cozy and there are always strangers (mostly young people) sitting at the table... wonderful!! Although it is generally very loud, you can have a good conversation....the schnitzels are of course great and beautifully presented on the plate...after 2 hours at the latest, room should be made for the next guests....that is also part of the concept...it's nice that there is a schnitzel bank in Heidelberg!! Keep it up.........

There are a lot of Korean people. Friendly, delicious and plentiful.

Very good food, super cozy, great atmosphere 🥰

Tasty and friendly! Always happy!

La comida y el ambiente increíbles, pueden estar ocupados, pero vale la pena la espera de grandes porciones y buena comida / vino. Puede estar ocupado en horas pico, pero vale la pena esperar.

Spontaneously discovered a super cozy, nice restaurant in Heidelberg's old town.

What an incredible experience from start to finish! Comfortable and interesting atmosphere, amazing service, great selection of wines, and absolutely delicious food. The pictures and reviews won’t ever capture it. It’s one of the places you have to experience and enjoy yourself. Will be back soon and definitely recommend to others.

Amazing little spot, great schnitzels and the best fried potatoes ever! And the staff was also really nice, so definitely would recommend going here!

The service, the atmosphere and the taste of the food. Everything was perfect and to be commended. Also the food came fast! Will be back for sure!

Everything was as it should be, was there for my birthday and I was really very satisfied, happy to come again!

would also give 10 stars if possible. Super nice staff and very tasty.

Very tasty and hearty German food. Rustic atmosphere. Super nice service. With ease and joy at work. You can't reserve a table here...you just sit down. A sociable, relaxed and international atmosphere. If this wine bar didn't exist, we would have to invent it! We'll definitely be back.

Perfect place, kindest staff, amazing food!!!!

It is a very cute restaurant, waiters are friendly and kind. Their schnitzel is extraordinarily delicious. Food portions are generous. I was satisfied with the atmosphere, taste and portion sizes.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and good food.

Fantastic! Superb schnitzels, lovely staff in a cosy and authentic setting. Really good value too. Highly recommend

Cozy atmosphere and a very humorous team. We were very satisfied with our meal. Absolute recommendation.

This place is awesome! We had great food and super friendly service in a really cool old barrel making shop-turned restaurant.

It felt impossible to reserve a table, impossible to contact by phone or email. Too bad.

Unfortunately we didn't like anything here. There were 5 of us in total and unfortunately everyone was disappointed. Neither the service, the ambience nor the food were convincing.

Very special place: unpretentious, you might be asked to share a table with other guests. Food is absolutely delicious and huge portions. Loved it !

It was the best restuarant I went in Germany trip. Wish I had one more chance to visit there. Loves the atmosphere and the food of course. The combination of garlic schnitzel and mushroom noodles is amazing❤️ It was the best!!!!!!!

Fantastic schnitzel in a rustic atmosphere. Always very crowded, so it is recommended to reserve in advance.

The food was really incredibly good! Ambiance is very nice, really cozy. The two boys (waiters) were really cool, relaxed and super friendly! Definitely coming back! Heidelberg represents 🤙🏽

Παραλίγο να κάνω το λάθος και να μην πάω λόγω μιας κριτικής που διάβασα ! Τα πιάτα τους ήταν μέσα στα 5 καλύτερα που έχω γευτεί σε όλη μου τη ζωή σε όλες τις χώρες που έχω ταξιδέψει (15) πραγματικά ευγενικό προσωπικό με χαμόγελο και όρεξη να μας βοηθήσουν λόγω μωρού σε καρότσι ! Ναι πολύ μικρό μαγαζι και κάθεσαι μαζί με άλλους ( εμείς όχι ) αλλά κάνουν το καλύτερο δυνατό! Αυτά !

local atmosphere There are many types of schnitzel and they are crispy, but too salty.

Situado en el centro de la ciudad vieja debió ser una carpintería. Es muy pequeño, muy bien decorado, con ambiente auténtico y mesa compartida. La comida no era tan buena, pero no tengo una opinión fiable porque no me gusta tanto la carne. El schnitzel de pimienta estaba delicioso, me dijeron. No lo recomiendo si vas a comer solo una vez en Heidelberg.

Excellent typical cuisine! The prices are fair, the food is very good, the service is fast and the manager is absolutely adorable! Don't hesitate

Very tasty food, super fast service, very rustic, cozy atmosphere

Great and cozy The food was great 👍🏼 and the employees were super friendly and nice Can only be recommended We'll definitely be back

A great team. Everything we had was delicious. A rustic atmosphere Keep it up The Grillhouse 2.0 Team

As soon as we entered the shop the girl greeted us very warmly and kindly... then we went to a very beautiful place that reminded us of our childhood years 🙏🙏🙏 ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ then we got the amazing huge schnitzels which were very tasty yummy!!! Thank you very much, we'll be back soon!!!

What can I say, everything is great. the place, the decor, the atmosphere, the service, and above all the dishes, typical, authentic, tasty, and super generous, for a reasonable price.

Η πόλη έχει πολύ καλύτερα μαγαζιά για φαγητό. Παρασυρθήκαμε από τις κριτικές και… από εμάς είναι όχι. Ή μπίρες ήταν οκ. Επειδή είναι μικρό μαγαζί με λίγα τραπέζια ενδέχεται να χρειαστεί να καθίσετε με κάποιον άγνωστο παρέα. Αν δεν ψάχνετε για γνωριμίες δεν είναι ό, τι καλύτερο…

This is THE place for authentic German food in Heidelberg. I visit Heidelberg every other year, and Weinstaube Schnitzelbank is hands down the best, classic German cuisine restaurant. It’s cozy, has amazing/attentive service, and in my opinion takes the holy grail of schnitzel in Heidelberg. It’s a very small establishment so try to get a reservation or be prepared to wait. Be patient because it actually is worth it. Also, if you show up early before opening, make sure to WAIT until it is the actual opening time. Coming in early before opening time isn’t polite. This is a gem of a spot. Communal tables and tight quarters with authentic, “made with love” quality food.

We went there on a Friday evening, without a reservation. -there was a line out on the street - but they took good care of us and let us order a beer while waiting, and we had a table within half an hour. Food was good and I really enjoyed the "Spaetzle" (German noodles). Service was good and quick and I could pay with card.

Typical place for dinner. You share a table with local people. A very interesting experience. The breaded pork, cordon bleu type, was very delicious. Just like the salad. And they have a great variety of wines. The only bad thing was the onion soup. Avoid her.

Great Schnitzels (opt for half portion), unique atmosphere, two great waiters.

Great Food in a very rustic atmosphere. Probably the best and most authentic schnitzel to be found in the area

If you’re looking for a true taste of Germany, this restaurant is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with rustic wooden tables, soft lighting, was giving cozy and perfect on a cold night. The staff were very friendly and charming! Spoke English wonderfully as we do not speak German and were always very attentive. We emailed them for a reservation about 3 weeks out and they replied the next day. I cannot stress enough to get a reservation. We saw many people turned away because they were packed on a Sunday night. The food was delicious with very generous portions, we could not finish. 100% get the garlic bread as an app! We will be making this a stop every time we are in Heidelberg!

I like being here :) if schnitzel is in HD, then here. The creamed savoy cabbage is fine. I like that tables are shared and guests aren't thrown out after a 2 hour concept. The air can be very stuffy when you come in from the freshness. Ps. Don't dress too warmly :)

Incredibly friendly service and very good food!

Regionale Deutsche Küche, herzhaft lecker ere Fleischgerichte in schönen großen Portionen. Ambiente Uhrig auf stabilen Holzbänken an ebensolchen Tischen. Telefonische Reservierung ist zu empfehlen! Gängige Kreditkarten bzw. EC Karten werden akzeptiert. Ein Kleinod inmitten der Heidelberger Altstadt.

Very quaint, tasty and great service. Schnitzel: top, draft Riesling instead of draft beer: tasty but unusual, atmosphere: great. Nice tip for a "German" inn.

Place is incredible. Took a chance to go here at dinner time near to Christmas to see if we could get a table wo a reservation and we got lucky! Service was great! The Gorgonzola Schnitzel was amazing. The Garlic Schnitzel was incredible. Highly recommend!

Crowded, loud, tourist bar, definitely not again. We refrained from eating because of the smell

They have different combinations of schnitzels, very tasty! The bar is more focused on wine, not beers (only one type of local beer). Nice and gentle staff.

One of the best schnitzels I've ever had. The portions are huuuuge and the atmosphere is almost a bit tavern-like - rustic and cozy. The owners are jovial and welcoming and the place is an all-round good mood. The liquor they serve was also very nice. Would highly recommend stopping by if you're in Heidelberg and want to try some hearty German food.

We had a lovely evening in the beer garden, great, delicious food, great service.

Exceptional dining experience. Food and wine were excellent. Great choice of schnitzel- we loved the peppercorn sauce and the blue cheese sauce. Atmosphere and service are hard to beat. Highly recommend.

Incredibly great dishes, nice and very courteous service. The two men behind the counter live their passion, you can see that from the first second. The food is excellent, I've rarely had such good schnitzel. The ambience has stood still in time in a positive sense, the atmosphere is very reminiscent of a traditional inn. Very happy again.

Very rustic decor, very nice staff, good food.

The restaurant was recommended to us by “locals”. Very cozy, rustic atmosphere, sitting together with others at large tables, which we found great and entertaining. The service was top and the food was delicious - price/performance ratio was great. We would love to come back on our next trip to Heidelberg. We were lucky to get seats spontaneously in the evening; reservations are recommended

I can't emphasize enough how impressed I am with this restaurant! It is the perfect place for all schnitzel lovers because here you can find the best crispy schnitzel I have ever eaten. As soon as I enter I am greeted by a welcoming atmosphere and friendly service. The menu offers a great selection of different schnitzel variations, but I opted for the classic crispy schnitzel. It was freshly made and perfectly golden brown. The first bite was to die for! The schnitzel was wonderfully crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Accompanied by a great side dish, such as the spicy potatoes, it was a real taste experience. The homemade sauce that is served with it also complements the dish perfectly. The portions are generous and the price is more than fair for the quality you get here. The service was attentive and professional, which completed the entire experience. If you're looking for a great restaurant where you can enjoy the best crispy schnitzel, you've come to the right place. I can't wait to come back and try more of this delicious cuisine!

Hello, The food at the restaurant is truly excellent. I highly recommend it to everyone. I had the Turkey schnitzel, and my friend had the à la maison. I can say that we were completely full. However, I would like to point out one thing. When we arrived at the venue, it was 16:58. Since the door was open, we entered the hall. As we didn’t have a reservation, we wanted to ask if it was possible to dine without one. However, the staff member did not approach us in a very friendly manner. They asked how we had entered. The opening hours were written in German on the door, and since we do not speak German, we were unaware. Because we arrived two minutes early, they moved us back outside without answering our question. They could have kindly said, “We can accommodate you, but the restaurant officially opens at 17:00, so we can only seat you then.” Additionally, if such a rule exists, they should not leave the door open. I wanted to share this as feedback.

Quaint restaurant, best service. Real food and drinks.

The schnitzel with peppercorn sauce was one of the best meals I had during my family’s trip to Heidelberg. The service and atmosphere were outstanding. If you have a smaller group you may end up sitting with others at one of the community tables. I highly recommend you check out the Schnitzelbank!

The location was very rustic and cozy, but unfortunately there isn't much space so sometimes you have to do table sharing. For me it was an extremely unpleasant situation that I luckily didn't have to deal with. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The food came quickly and was very good, great quality, great taste, absolutely recommended.
