Willy B. in Erfurt

Very tasty food and more than enough portions at a good price/performance ratio.

I hate reviews that start with "I". In short: as a notorious complainer, there is no reason for me not to go here. The staff is super friendly, attentive, but completely unobtrusive. The glasses and dishes are sparkling clean. The atmosphere is a really successful mix of cool and cozy. I drank Köstritzer from the tap, which was as good as expected. I ate the goulash with dumplings and extra red cabbage - and I really enjoyed it. This was a trip to a time when food was given the time it needed, in a portion size that was really filling and of a quality that I would describe as "grandma-worthy". The red cabbage was firm to the bite, well seasoned without the sometimes extreme spices from the convenience store, the goulash was beautifully braised, the meat was tender without being completely dry, the sauce was pleasantly creamy and not gelatinous... And the attention to detail was noticeable in that even the tomatoes in the decoration were braised. In addition, it should be said that Willy B. has an impressive drinks menu with something for everyone. Since I'm only in Erfurt for work, it was the first time and, unfortunately, probably the last time that I was here for a long time, but I hope that I'll end up here again. Big praise to the whole team!

Sunday evening, the restaurant was well attended. I had the goulash with Thuringian dumplings. It was excellent, the meat/sauce well seasoned; It's been a long time since I've eaten such a good and hearty goulash! Price(s) very O.K.!

One of my favorite bars in the city for years. I always enjoy coming here, whether it's for dinner while watching a live football match or to chat with my own customers.

Disappointing - deceiving guests I visited the Willy B. restaurant in Erfurt because of the positive reviews and the promising menu. Unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing. I was literally ripped off during the billing process. Even though the website clearly stated that the prices were significantly lower, at the end of the evening I was charged higher amounts. This is not only inappropriate, but also a clear deception of the guests. As a guest, I expect the prices to be transparent and fair - unfortunately that was not the case here at all. It is incomprehensible why they rely on such unfair practices instead of providing guests with an honest and pleasant experience. Unfortunately for me this was a one-off visit and I will avoid this restaurant in the future. I can only advise everyone to find out about the prices in advance and to pay close attention when billing. It's a shame that the service left us sitting next to the disabled toilet for over a quarter of an hour without a menu, so unfortunately I had to look at the menu on the website myself. Unfortunately, the food didn't blow me away either. *Conclusion:* Absolutely not recommended if you don't want to have unreasonable surprises with the bill.

We eat here often and have never been disappointed. From burgers to pasta, chicken with baked potatoes or even schnitzel... The aioli as a starter with bread is awesome 👍👍 the price is really great and the waitresses are also very friendly.

Cozy atmosphere, you can feel good here. A wide range of drinks leaves nothing to be desired. Burgers and the like pamper the palate and are recommended.

Great drink selection, good food and nice atmosphere.

Very tasty, very fast and particularly friendly. Inexpensive

Been back for a long time and absolutely loved it☝️😎 .....definitely again soon 🍸

A slightly different restaurant but great. The service was very friendly, the food (also regional) was fantastic and tasty. The ambience is astonishing and presented with great attention to detail (Willy Brandt). A little journey back in time is guaranteed. I was thrilled and would love to come back.

Great restaurant. There are also football broadcasts. Service is very friendly

Great local We had burgers, salad, schnitzel with pasta and various drinks Fast and nice service Everything was very good Highly recommended We'll be back

Very well located restaurant-bar right next to the main train station. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Ambiance very cozy and tidy. Cocktails taste good and are priced well. Recommended.

We came here for breakfast during our short trip to Erfurt. Super delicious breakfast, everything you need. Definitely recommended.

Nice bar opposite the main train station with friendly staff and fast service

Great location opposite the train station. Nice place to meet up with friends and watch football. Several large-format TV screens guarantee a good view from every seat.

We really liked it...pleasant atmosphere and music. Attentive service, good cocktails and delicious food.

The store has a really cool set up and if you ask nicely they will also put football on the TV or something similar. Unfortunately, the coffee wasn't to my taste and our waitress somehow didn't make us feel really welcome here. Lg

Gutes abwechslungsreiches Angebot. Preis/Leistung bei Speisen sehr gut. Weinangebot gut.

Great atmosphere I love this location. The atmosphere is always wonderful here. I often meet friends here. The live broadcast is well thought out. Service is very friendly, competent, quick and great! The range and service at the bar is top! So always happy!

A lovingly furnished sports bar with really tasty cuisine. The culinary standards, which they say are elevated, are met. The service is wonderful and the decor is truly appropriate to the place and its history. Gladly again.

Service is probably the last thing. At first we were turned away because apparently there was nothing left available. But then a seat became available that we were allowed to take. However, no one served us and didn't even clear away the previous guests' dirty dishes. We left after 25 minutes and definitely won't be coming back

The food is delicious and they even mixed a drink that wasn't on the menu. The atmosphere is super cool. The next time you visit Erfurt, Willy B. will be on the visit list again.

Wir waren als Familie spontan zur Mittagszeit an einem Samstag da. Einen Platz haben wir noch bekommen, obwohl es echt voll war. + die Karte ist umfangreich und bietet unterschiedliche Gerichte: Burger, Steak, Salate, Pasta + geschmacklich war alles ganz gut ohne absolute Spitze zu sein - Ambiente ist okay, aber schon ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen Preis- Leistungsverhältnis okay. Insgesamt eher für Barcharakter als speziell zum Essen vorbeigehen.

Willy B is more of a bar than a restaurant. There is a small menu and the food is made with love and is delicious too. My impression was very positive.

I can only recommend this great restaurant.

Top sports bar, sits well and can eat well

Great for watching football Employees who work very quickly

Great meeting place, great food. Definitely reserve a table!

Ordered two beers. Waitress doesn't ask if it's small or not. Only brings big ones. The waitress was very unfriendly. My colleague didn't finish his portion and wanted to take the rest with him. Waitress brings the package to the table to pack up herself. In other restaurants, the plate is taken into the kitchen and the food is then put in. Food was edible. No fresh onions!!!! Definitely not a repeat for us!!!

Located right next to the train station. Great restaurant with delicious food. Service was very attentive. We'll come back to see you on our next city trip,

The food was amazing 🔨, if you weren't happy with it you should stay at home. I'll definitely be back. 😋👍

When Sebastian is at the bar, the cocktails taste best of all. Except Marie is there. Then she is number one. A bar that is always recommended.

Unfriendly and overwhelmed staff, no fun

Unavoidable for football fans and always recommended

Super. Nice location, great cheese soup. 😊

A very great restaurant. The service was very friendly and good and the food was delicious.

Thumbs up for excellent service of Oscar and the great culinary experience in a place where most pass through in a hurry

Highly recommended for everyone, great food and very friendly service

The food and cocktail (non-alcoholic) were very tasty. Reservations are highly recommended as it gets very busy in the evenings.

Always very tasty and fresh food. Very nice atmosphere

The staff is nice and the service was very quick. I finally got an ice cream chocolate there and it was delicious🤩

Nice service and delicious food. We like to eat or have a drink here.

Great service and very tasty food

There are no places you can sit without a giant tv in your face, which is playing advertisements about 50% of the time with the sound on. Makes the otherwise nice place feel really cheap. Food is ok.

The food is fantastic, the burgers and goulash are particularly delicious, but the waitresses are a bit arrogant!!!

Very tasty and really fills you up. The staff is also friendly.

It was very nice and you can see a TV from every seat. Perfect for a sports bar.

We had 🍔 burgers. Very, very tasty, fluffy rolls, great sauce and, I think, home-made fries. Nice service, everything was great. We would love to come back.

You can probably eat delicious Thuringian bratwurst somewhere. But for a sports bar opposite Erfurt main station, I'm pleasantly surprised. Definitely great...young team that's on the ball. Therefore overall score 5 stars.

We took advantage of the nice weather and sat outside. It was quite pleasant. Drinks were ok. Service not very attentive. We ordered nachos, among other things. A small pile tipped out of the bag and a lukewarm bowl of sauce, unusually bad.

Wir waren für einen Kurzurlaub in Erfurt und nächtigten in einem Hotel gleich um die Ecke. Das "Willi B." wurde uns dort empfohlen und zu recht. Die von uns verzehrten Speisen und Getränke waren lecker, die Bedienung schnell und freundlich.

Great location, right at the train station. There was oat milk and lactose-free milk for the coffee! I was waiting here for a friend.

Very nice place to have a cappuccino before starting a long-distance train journey. Very nice, interesting atmosphere, friendly and attentive service

Everything top toilet is an absolute no go

We were in Erfurt for a short vacation and stayed in a hotel just around the corner. The "Willi B." was recommended to us there and rightly so. The food and drinks we ate were delicious and the service was quick and friendly.

Veggie burgers extremely tasty.

Yesterday I was able to get to know the restaurant with friends from Meet 5 and I have to say it was more than worth it! Starting with the super nice waitress, who was always friendly and accommodating and responded to all requests! Furthermore, the food was super tasty and had a great price-performance ratio compared to other locations. The selection of drinks is also very good (I got to know a few new things). Happy to come back!

It's right in front of the station, great for a drink.

Had a cocktail today, service was very quick. The oranges on the cocktail were completely dried out and the taste was more like a juice drink. For the price we expected something different.

The cocktail today tasted nothing like alcohol, mixed very thinly. The orange piece on the cocktail garnish was completely dried out and therefore hard. We expected more for the price. We won't come back.

Attentive and friendly with very nice photos of Willy B. on the walls. Worth a visit.

An excellent store, with a fantastic ambience, with comfortable furniture that invites you to linger and enjoy inside and outside. The friendly staff responds directly to you.

I'm from the Ruhr area and here for the first time. I really have to admit and write that I'm moving here for the steak. Ambiance, food, staff so hardworking, so nice... 100% perfect. And kudos to the chef!

Delicious place. Cool. We need to go.

Very nice staff and delicious food

Food is exceptionally good. Service is super nice. And you can watch football really well there. You deserve the 5*!

Hier kann man einen lockeren Abend mit Abendessen genießen, Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr Nett und das Essen schmeckt hier im Willy B sehr gut

Nice restaurant with delicious drinks. We felt very comfortable. The nice waitress (Nathalie) had great tips for Erfurt and was very friendly. Thanks for the great start to a long train journey.

We really enjoy eating here. The breakfast is also really great and the service is always super friendly. Everyone will find something on the map.

The facility is located opposite the main entrance to the railway station. Cozy, stylish, good music, they sponsor football very often. Friendly waiters. Fast service. Been there 10 times. Good cocktails, delicious wine. I recommend you try to visit. Problems with food 😅 not a very wide selection of food

Super friendly service and beer was great, food looked great too👌

Great location, friendly staff without exception. I'll definitely stop by again next time I'm in Erfurt. We recommend!

Had two very nice football evenings here. Nice staff and great atmosphere. You can actually see any of the TVs from every table. If I come to Erfurt again this will be my first choice for sports bars.

Great service, nice waiters and great food and cocktails. We always enjoy coming here

A very nice restaurant opposite the train station with good food and very good service. The price performance is good to very good.

We recommend. Excellent cuisine and super friendly service. Food came quickly

Very nice atmosphere. I personally wouldn't need the screens. 😆 But the sports fans are happy...

Hello everyone, the four of us were with you last night. Super nice waitresses. Up to the point where I paid a little earlier than my friends! If I pay 3 more Pils for my friends, then I also expect them to be brought to the table!!!! Unfortunately that wasn't the case........there is "unfortunately" a DEDUCTION for that!!!! 🤔 Otherwise everything was great...

Super tasty and the service was very attentive

Nice service, good goods, contemporary atmosphere

Nice location to hang out with friends.

The currywurst was quite good both visually and in taste. When the weather is nice you can also take a seat in front of the restaurant. I can recommend this place.

I went to this restaurant based on the extremely good reviews and the external appearance and am therefore a bit disappointed. I think the store is okay, but nothing more. Ambient and service is good and the food is ok. I definitely can't recommend rump steak here. Mine was way too small and thin and had too much tendon and fat. Wasn't the best quality for the price.

Very tasty and atmosphere was great 😋

What can I say, the blonde bar lady is so damaging!! I've been able to watch her several times now, how she treats her colleagues and how she talks about others with regular guests is unbelievable. By the way, I didn't think my waitress was too slow!! I would just think about how you can unsettle a fellow human being with constant announcements!

Jutes food, in normal portions at pleasant prices. Not a fancy bar with bells and whistles

Nice shop and okay food. Unfortunately we had to get the tickets ourselves and order them at the counter because we weren't served, so a star deduction. The colleague who took over the shift afterwards was great.

Very good food, the ambience was also great👍🏻

Wir waren seit langem mal wieder im Willy B., für dauerhaften Boykott ist das Essen doch zu lecker, insbesondere auch die Leber. Heute war nicht nur das Essen lecker, auch der Service überzeugte: aufmerksam, zügig, freundlich. Insoweit kein Vergleich zum letzten Mal. Vielen Dank!

Very central, delicious cocktails, if you like it a little louder you're in good hands there.

We were traveling in beautiful Erfurt and spontaneously looked for somewhere nice to rest and decided on Willy B.. From the outside and inside it looks nice and cozy, the selection of drinks and food was large and the service was very friendly and attentive. My cocktail was tasty and not with too much ice. The tomato cream soup was well tempered and delicious. The nachos for in between meals were also satisfying with the warm chili cheese sauce. All in all, we would like to come back again for a real dinner. We are excited. Update: We spontaneously went to Willy's again. B. and were again very satisfied. This time we had a burger and the zucchini fritters with salmon, both were very tasty and plentiful. Even the steakhouse fries were something special and really great with the selection of sauces. They didn't skimp on the salmon either, thumbs up.

Good mix of, I want to meet up with friends, chat, drink, eat or I want to watch a football game with friends, family on the TV on the wall. The food was delicious and so was the staff friendly. Highly recommended.

Everything was very good, the waitresses were very kind, they gave me food after 10.30pm. Thank you

I sat in there to eat. It is a pleasant atmosphere to spend time in. The food was delicious and the service was attentive. The tables are far enough away from the neighboring table so that conversations can be held confidentially. The proximity to the main train station (opposite) is ideal if the train arrives later. Card payment possible. There were also dishes for children. There were also cocktails.

Great service, good food and a clear recommendation.

Great location with tradition and good food.
