Wirtshaus zum Dudelsack in Cochem

If you are greeted at the entrance by bottles of ketchup and mayo, you should turn around as quickly as possible. Bottle of water €9.90 Hefeweizen €7.90. Food lukewarm and boring with no taste. M.Meissner December 24th

The food was a disaster/disgrace. Never again... rip off... small cola €4.40, tea with a bag €4.80. It's a shame that there is something like that in Cochem 😬

We were there today because we were hungry, that restaurant is probably the last one!!! The schnitzel frozen products and then death freezes! The pepper frames. is 100% from the wholesaler out of the bucket and had been open for a long time and tasted very rancid! We had herb butter with bread again for 5.90 euros, a very proud price for two tiny slices of bread with a small portion of herb butter that had definitely been left uncovered in the refrigerator for days, terrible taste after refrigeration and rancid! All in all, I would have expected more for the price of 75.60 euros and not such crap that doesn't even come close to snack quality! After our complaint when paying, we were more or less expelled from the house and told they would never come back!!! Should you recommend it to others, of course to the health department!!!

Service not at all smiling. And the boss's schnitzel which comes straight from the freezer and which was not good at all..

We enjoyed the steak and the tarte flambée. The service was extremely friendly and attentive. Beautiful view of the Moselle and great interior design.

Staff nice and fast, had a drink with 5 people, paying €35 for 2 beers, 2 cokes and a cappuccino. Beer tasted like nothing, for the first time I left a beer after a sip. Not recommended together with all other reviews.

If you want to feel cold while eating, feel free to go there. When I asked to close the door, I was told that the boss didn't want that. It's strange that all guests sit indoors wearing jackets. The fries were very light and cooled quickly, but the schnitzel was very brown. Shame about the money.

We too were misled with the nice atmosphere. The food was ok, hot and relatively fast. Unfortunately, you have to eat inside with your coat on given the cold. Waiter will argue with you about the fact that he himself brought the wrong dish. Finally, it's too expensive for what you get.

Only the decoration of the restaurant is saved. Abusive price, terrible quality, frozen dessert, excessive price of the drink. A price appears on the door and inside they charge you more than indicated. I do not recommend this place under any circumstances, I am sorry to have to give such a bad rating, but today's dinner seemed like a scam to us, and we leave with a very bad taste in our mouths about a town as beautiful and impressive as Cochem.

I don't recommend it at all. The quality of the food leaves a lot to be desired. Everything seems to have been taken straight from the freezer and without any care in the preparation. To make matters worse, the prices are abusive. The service doesn't help either: the waitress who served us was unfriendly and not attentive, as if it bothered her to do her job. The only positive thing is the location and that the place is nice inside, but it's not worth spending here... a shame.

Pressed meat, completely superimposed mushrooms, dishes total UNDER 1 🌟!

Absolute impudence! Unfortunately we were deceived by the atmosphere. Never experienced anything so bad! The food was canned and just warmed up. Never again!

DISASTER!! Never again. Food was anything but tasty and the price was not at all reasonable. Selling hot water and a tea bag for €4.50 is a disgrace!! hands off

Grottoes bad food. Bread a piece of fat with a little meat and call it schnitzel. Fries were lukewarm and absolutely greasy.

I haven't eaten so badly in a long time.

Appearances are deceiving I found the inn very nice but the food is absolutely 🤮 Very ready limp fries schnitzel was cold Never again

Never experienced such a rip-off! The food was the worst thing I've ever been served! Inferior quality, everything just warmed up! It's a shame that such a great spot is spoiled by such crap.

Anyone who has too much money and a strong stomach should really experience it. Service ok. Ambiance ok. Food, disaster!

The worst food I've eaten in decades... Anyone who thinks McDonald's has sh... food should go there

Sorry, I have to give one star because zero is not possible! The food was an absolute disgrace! Bread with aioli something with a smell of old Damp basement was to be compared. The main courses we ordered were topped again! Fries cold soggy and green! Sauces from the bucket! Disgusting …..! Just to discourage. This great location right on the Moselle is being spoiled by a shop like this.

it was extremely cold at the window even though the window was closed. It took an hour before we got the food, when we got the food everything was cold, the fries and the schnitzel. Later, when we had all finished the food, fruit flies came all over the food! bah bah, not recommended.

Very cold in the restaurant. Reserved table not available. Had to wait for the table and were not offered drinks. Finally at the table and only received a drink after 40 minutes. Bread rock hard. Fries were cold. Some schnitzels were cold. Flammkuche cold and burnt. Indicated that fries were cold and received new ones, which were then added to the bill. Toilets too dirty to use. Finally, accompanied at the table by fruit flies who were interested in the cold food. Restaurant did nothing with the bill.

The cutlery was dirty and some of it still had leftover food hanging on it. Had schnitzel and fried fish each with fries. For a bottle of water that isn't even 1L, €10 is simply too much. The fries were cheap frozen fries as was the fried fish. A homemade cucumber salad is offered. This arrived and you could already see that it had been standing for a few days and the last remnants were simply being scraped together. The yogurt dressing on the salad was already completely dried out. When we asked to replace the lettuce because it tasted strange, we were only told that we had run out of lettuce and that they had nothing left. You can then think of your part... The only positive thing is the view and that the food was served quickly. However, the taste was pretty bad and there was a lack of spice.

More than mediocre quality, safe meat The little ones’ Nugets too To flee

We looked through the windows...and thought it was beautiful... Just looking at the menu wasn't convincing. Charging €7.90 for a 0.4l beer alone is ridiculous. The food was poor chip shop quality... We paid €52.40 for two meals with a drink each!!!! Thank you never again.

Very good food and very nice service! I can only recommend it!!!

It looks very nice, but drinks are very expensive and the food is nothing special. Main course was served while eating the starter. The wind blows cold in the front part of the restaurant, but the staff are not allowed to close the door to attract new customers. In short, not recommended!

It looks very cozy from the outside, but also cozy on the inside, although cold. The food is not great, schnitzel was disappointing, fries were not tasty. We were still eating the starter, then the main course arrived, which was not nice. The drinks made it very expensive, which really shocked us, 6 euros for a coke and almost 10 euros for a beer. I would look further before eating there.

Nice ambience and nice service. The schnitzel is not fresh, finished product from the deep fryer. If you like ready-made meals, this is the place for you. 3 restaurants next to each other that all belong together because they have the same cuisine. This was the last visit for us.

Really such bad service, never experienced this before. I don't know where that girl gets the jokes from, really bad! 1 star is still too much

Wat een ongelovelijk slecht restaurant maar wat nog erger was de serveerster,wat een kapsones kwijf is dat!! Echt dit nog nooit meegemaakt

Wat een onbeschofte serveerster en dan heb ik het nog niet eens over het eten,ronduit slecht! niet heengaan! Zonde van je geld, bier ook belachelijk duur

Overpriced cheap frozen food that was served floating in deep fryer fat. The cucumber salad was oversalted, very dill heavy and ice cold. The waitresses were friendly and helpful. The view of the Moselle is nice, but it doesn't make the food any better. The local winemakers can recommend good restaurants, but we were subsequently advised against Bagpipes and other restaurants run by the same operator.

Wij hebben er met 15 personen gegeten, kregen niet allemaal tegelijk ons eten. Wij hebben hierna gevraagd en als antwoord kregen wij ee grote mond door de serveerster. Toen de rest van de familie het eten kreeg werd en nog een valse opmerking gemaakt. Het eten was wisselend, een deel kreeg lekker eten, een deel was lauw maar ook te hard gebakken schnitzel. Drinken is erg duur.

They will never see me there again! The food was cold and not tasty, they brought us food and we had no cutlery, we ordered cucumber salads and they were forgotten! When our main course was almost finished, they only brought the salads, a small bowl cost €5.90 for 7 slices of cucumber, a real shame! The owner should really be ashamed!

Rubbish, just don't go there...Absolute disaster food at extreme prices..!!

We had a great experience, food was tasty, generous portions, hot and served quickly. We had a delightful waitron. Only downside was the Apperol Spritz which did not meet Milan's Spritz standard but I should have just ordered a beer - my fault. Thank you for your hospitality!

The food was a complete disaster. We ordered schnitzel and 2 starters, one starter tasted musty and the second starter came after we got the main course. There was a thick black hair in one of the schnitzels, and overall everything was almost cold and carelessly slapped onto the plate. After our complaint, we only had to pay for the drinks without any apology. Afterwards we only had to pay for the cheap wine and the cheap no-name water (the bottle cost a whopping 10 euros) and we ended up with 41 euros. It is incomprehensible that this very nice restaurant is being driven into the wall by simply selling disgusting food.

Apart from the beautiful ambience and the view of the Moselle, we unfortunately cannot give this restaurant a good rating. The schnitzel week was advertised at €12.90 per schnitzel. When I look at the menu, I notice that a normal schnitzel costs a minimum of €15.90. The food was only lukewarm and didn't taste good at all. The staff, on the other hand, was super friendly and quick. Even the staff confirmed that some guests had already complained about the bad food. But the chef doesn't seem to care. It was the first and last time we visited this restaurant. And the overpriced prices are simply an absolute disgrace for this quality.

So looking forward to a schnitzel, but we came home from a literal rude awakening. After waiting half an hour, a cold flammkuche was placed on the table as a starter. People around us had already walked away angry because it took so long. The main course was also sent back next to us because it was cold. We didn't wait for our main course and left again. When leaving, ask €24 for three drinks and old baguette. The entire bar was literally full of dishes that had been returned by other guests! Please, take all the bad reviews and mine to heart and NEVER eat here!

If there were zero stars, I would give them. The food was cold, the Käsepätzle was cold spaghetti with a slice of cheese. The food was way too expensive and really not edible. One star goes to the nice service, who couldn't do anything about the food and can only make you feel sorry for them.

Underground! Eat cold and ready-made products. Flying everywhere and overpriced. Stale cola €6

Zo verheugd op een schnitzel, maar we kwamen van een letterlijke koude kermis thuis. Na een half uur wachten werd als voorgerecht een koude flammkuche op tafel neergezet. Om ons heen waren al mensen boos weggelopen, omdat het zo lang duurde. Ook werd naast ons het hoofdgerecht teruggestuurd, omdat het koud was. We hebben niet ons op ons hoofdgerecht gewacht en zijn weer vertrokken. Bij het weggaan nog wel even €24 vragen voor drie drankjes en oud stokbrood. De hele bar stond werkelijk vol met gerechten die waren teruggestuurd door andere gasten! Alsjeblieft, neem alle slechte reviews en die van mij ter harte en ga hier NOOIT eten!

The food didn't even deserve one star. We really can't recommend it. Aioli with bread. Aioli tasted terrible and bread was old and like rubber. Our schnitzels were extremely thin, as was the sauce and the fries were cold. Prices different than stated outside. The outrageousness, the prices for the drinks. An incredible €7.90 for 0.4 liters of wheat beer. Never again. We saved photos.

Selten so schlecht gegessen. Dafür aber teuer. Draußen wird für die Schnitzelwoche geworben/11,90€ zum locken In der Karte steht dann kleines Schnitzel 11,90 € normales 14,90 € Tk-Schnitzel Von Bestellung bis servieren 5min...... Getränke sehr teuer. Empfehlung: Karte lesen... Kurz überlegen....dann der Bedienung sagen warum man wieder geht.

This was a big disappointment. Food was really not tasty! Even the coke was dead. Never again!

That was the first and last time we were there. The schnitzel was frozen and the fried onions were ready-made which were disgusting. The only thing that was edible were the fries 🍟 and the cola Never again and absolutely not recommended

Despite the many bad reviews, I stopped by the bagpipes for lunch today. Schnitzel dishes are advertised in front of the restaurant for €11.90. After a quick look at the menu, I realized that the normal schnitzel costs €14.90. The friendly waiter quickly took my order and first brought me a large cola for a whopping €6.90. I don't want to accuse the operator of anything, but I'm sure I was served a stale discount Coke. Shortly later the pepper schnitzel with fries was served. In addition, the waiter brought a bottle of mayonnaise and a bottle of ketchup (both unrefrigerated) from Gut&Günstig to my table. Hygienically extremely questionable. As expected, the schnitzel was a frozen product, the pepper sauce was a curdled mixture of cream and ready-made sauce. The bad reviews are absolutely justified. The prices quoted in the bagpipes are an outrage for the quality delivered. I will never set foot in a restaurant owned by this operator again. Thank God there are also many good restaurants in Cochem where you can get great quality for a reasonable price. The additional €4 on the bill was probably caused by a misunderstanding from the cellar. I think he thought I ordered a double schnitzel.

Unfortunately I cannot recommend this restaurant. The only bright spot is the view of the Moselle. The staff was unfriendly and didn't look after us well; even when I asked for a straw I didn't get one. I also had to get the ketchup myself. The prices are overpriced for the small portions, which also didn't taste good. 7€ for a small glass of apple juice, that's incredible. Overall a disappointing experience.

Cold steak with a thick tendon paid the most expensive price Snitsel looked like he had already been warmed up 3 times

2 small potatoes cost 1 euro in the store. But heaps of flavorless herb quark. 1 schnitzel with fried onions from the bucket plus 2 drinks...49.50 Outrageous Service... borderline Not recommended. You can't have a nice evening there.

The food was catastrophic, the schnitzel wasn't quite cooked through, the baked potatoes were bland and the prices were way too high. Please don't go to this restaurant. Plus the music was terrible.

Incredible €7.90 for a beer that didn't even taste good. Felt like it had been mixed together. So never again in my life this shop

It wasn't tasty, the fries are still ok and a glass of coke is 5.90 so I wouldn't go there, it's a dirty mess

The view of the Moselle is very nice but the food is not good at all.👎 Master brewer from the deep fryer, cold potato wedges. Champions in the can...

Incredibly bad shop. Ordered schnitzel with fries. The food came two minutes after the order was placed. Fries were cold and had probably been in the deep fryer for an hour. I have never tasted worse mushroom cream sauce. It then costs €18.90 and a non-alcoholic wheat €7.90. It couldn't be more outrageous.

Very poor quality food and totally overpriced! That doesn't make up for the nice service and the beautiful view.

Cool atmosphere...but we'll never eat there again!!!! Every chip shop is better!!!

The ambience is great but the food is an absolute disgrace. Not recommended 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

Ambience great, food below average. The menu is manageable and drinks are sometimes overpriced. You don't have to go in

Very bad food. Nothing fresh, my dishes weren't cooked through. Much too expensive for this meal.

The restaurant looked very good from the outside, unfortunately the food wasn't worth mentioning. I have never tasted such a bad schnitzel as in this restaurant, so I left the food and then went to another restaurant with my husband

Bad, overpriced food with nice service and a beautiful view! Unfortunately I can only confirm the bad reviews about the food, schnitzel from the deep fryer, sauce a ready-made product, absolutely not worth the price unfortunately

A nice panoramic terrace on the second floor, but what ridiculous prices. €7.80 for a draft beer (0.3l I believe) is really ridiculous. Sandwich with aïoli was also very simple and aïoli not very tasty. The view is nice and the service was quite friendly.

The schnitzels at Lidl are bigger compared to those at this restaurant… Besides, it is very expensive, I don't recommend this restaurant.

We're sorry we went in here. Fries were very salty, schnitzel with mushroom sauce (I think it was Lidl sauce) was just fine. Prices are way too high. 0.4 l beer for €7.90 which was way too high. 0.33 kolsch for €4.90.

The (mini) schnitzel was really bad and a disgrace for the price. The fries were soggy and not edible. Never again.

Ambience good, service ok. But the food is not recommended at all and is totally overpriced. It's better not to go there or to the neighboring restaurants, because they all belong to the same owner and the food is all equally bad.

The food was on the table in no time, friendly service and all while sitting in the sun with a fantastic view over the Moselle.

Great ambience, food was good, prices too! Great view!

Oh man !! Don't go!!! This is the worst restaurant I've ever been to! The schnitzel is an outrage! And the price is a total rip off!!! Never Again

Seldom eaten so badly. I had the coachman's steak or shoe sole with fried onions. Friends had tw. Schnitzel dishes - all convenience. There is no cooking here. To top it off, when we asked for mayo, "Good and Cheap" mayo bottles were placed on the table. You can't really be more hospitable than that. The only silver lining was the friendly service.

Eaten worse than ever before. A snack bar can do much better. A shame for every euro

Simply bad, cheap food, totally overpriced, ok, view of the Moselle, service that gives everything, but what can they do, overall not recommended

Yeah. If only I had seen the reviews beforehand. Food was delivered really quickly. But the prices are catastrophic. Beer 0.4l for almost 8€??? Are we here at Oktoberfest? Hearty coleslaw is simply coleslaw.

Folks, an old saying... look at the toilets, the kitchen is like that too. The rustic interior is the only positive thing. The chicken schnitzel was a disaster, every chip shop makes better food. The chicken schnitzel was totally hard and small, Lovelessly served with fries and that's it, for a proud 18.50 euros. No salad with it, served dry... The waitress was unfriendly and listless. It's a shame for such a beautiful location... you can save yourself the visit, pure embarrassment.. .

There's actually no point from us! The food leaves a lot to be desired and that too for the price. Not even at the level of a chip shop, but prices and quantities like in a star restaurant. Definitely not recommended!!

Food was OK. Drink prices beyond good and evil €7.90 for a 0.4 beer.

The food is shocking, it's like a Chinese takeaway. It's a lovely place, great views, but the food is absolutely crap.

Very friendly staff, the food comes from the freezer rather than homemade! Great view!

We had arranged to meet there for lunch as part of a club tour. A friendly employee came relatively quickly to take our drink order and these were also served quickly. Shortly afterwards we wanted to order food, which unfortunately took longer, even though the hut wasn't even full. My friend then ordered the knuckle with baguette and I ordered the spaetzle with mushrooms and parmesan (which had actually been pre-ordered for some time because we were such a large group). It took longer than expected, but that wasn't so bad given the great view outside. Then the food came... my spaetzle was lukewarm and tasted more like a finished product. Too bad. But I wasn't surprised at all by the huge selection on the menu. Less is more. Better quality than quantity. (; My friend's knuckle was very good, but the three slices of braguette were so hard that you could have put stones on the plate. Unfortunately, the price-performance ratio is not right here. And the drinks are way too expensive in my opinion. But overall the staff was very friendly. Ambience is quaint and appropriate. But I would definitely prefer to go to another restaurant on my next visit to Cochem.

To avoid questionable freshness, poorly cooked dish, Excessive price, a shame, tourist trap Should be closed

View of the Moselle, but the food, well.... Price far too high for a small schnitzel from the deep fryer, drinks - beer 0.5 for just under €8. Water 0.75 for €9.70!! Not recommended!!!!

Not much to tell. Food was terrible. Everything tasted like old fat and from a can. Radler 0.4 for €7.90! Absolute rip off.

Really not recommended the food

To avoid. Dishes way too expensive for the value and the only goal is to make a quick buck. We had ordered something without fries and had to pay a lot more as the waiter refused to give us the reference prices of the menu. It’s a real tourist restaurant with no quality.

Portions very small, schnitzel only consists of breading, just expensive, expensive, expensive, absolutely poor quality, not recommended!!

I've never eaten as bad as today. I had gypsy schnitzel and my wife had Jägerschnitzel, both with fries. The fries didn't taste like anything and were weak and rubbery. The schnitzels were (ready-made schnitzels) just thrown into the deep fryer and soaked in oil and thrown onto the plate. There was also mayonnaise and ketchup from Ja EDKA. The 0.5 liter house wine was tasty and the whole thing for €62. We are often in Cochem but the food was a disgrace. We cannot recommend this shop and will never go there again.

View of the Moselle, 1 star for that, food and beer simply very bad, so not even a star for food and drinks

It couldn't be worse and then €7.90 for a 0.4l shandy...

The place is quaint, but then that's where it ends. Inedible food at extortionate prices...you can't even give it one star...

'The Schnitzel' was very bad, it was like what you get from Lidl frozen stuff and put in microwave. And they try to cheat with the bill, 16 euros over the right. Bad food, bad service !

Me and my girlfriend (and our 18 month son) went for a day out in Cochem and when passing by the Wirtshaus decided to have lunch there. Pros: - The decoration looks nice. - The service was fast and helpful (Tuesday lunch time, with less than half the house full). Cons: - The restaurant feels/is cramped (my girlfriend struggled to leave her spot since there was another table right behind her. - The menu is quite confusing. - We ordered two flammkuchen, one of them with shrimps (very tiny shrimps) loosely spread. - There were some people smoking on the terrace (probably still a German thing?) - There were small bits of glass on the floor, that we noticed we sat our son on the floor just to pick him up straight away. - Expensive (almost 50€ for two flammkuchen, one beer and one ice tea).

Visually great, service average, but everything else leaves a lot to be desired. Bitburger advertising, but they serve Felsgold Metrobier, which actually tastes great, but it's not drinkable here and at horrendous prices. The schnitzel was frozen, the sauce was definitely not homemade and the fries were average. This restaurant is definitely not recommended.

The food is just bad. Quality is non-existent. The prices are ridiculously high. Then it's better to burn the money.

The food was definitely not worth the price! It came so quickly that I can conclude that it is a finished product. I didn't like the taste at all. Rarely have I experienced something so poor in a restaurant. Definitely not recommended!

Because of the great location, we went to this restaurant in good spirits without looking at the reviews first. So much in advance. This will never happen to us again! About 10 minutes after ordering, the “food” was already on the table. Dr. Oetker's tarte flambée was still edible. Even if you can get it on the frozen food shelf for about a third of the price. The spit roast, from a trusted butcher, was just horrible. Dry. Without a crispy crust. Likewise the fries! There wasn't much else to discover on the plate. The absolute worst point was reached when I let the food go back (for the first time ever. I've never done anything like that before!). I also mentioned that I would only pay for our drinks and the tarte flambée. The waiter then took the plate away more or less without comment. As if this were happening multiple times a day. It's unbelievable how a restaurant like this can survive in such a great location.

! Tourist rip-off! The prices are outrageous, The food is cheap frozen food and ready-made products. Mayo and ketchup are available straight from the tube from Gut und Günstig. Condition seems listless and friendly criticism was responded to with indifference and disinterest. I've never felt so blatantly ripped off in a restaurant. The "restaurants" next door are similar to this one. It's a shame that restaurants like this occupy the best location in an otherwise beautiful place.

Were there at the beginning of August. Ordered an Aperol Spritz. The drink was expected in the usual Aperol Spritz glass. We received a 0.2l wine glass, filled mainly with ice. In other words, the actual drink was reduced to a minimum. This for a whopping €9.90 per glass. That's the bottom drawer. Bad rip-off.

It was a shame to pay almost 17 euros for a not freshly prepared Jägerschnitzel with ready-made Jäger sauce😡😡😡😡 and there was no salad😡😡. The portion is more like a children's portion. We also had a cordon bleu (same children's portion) and tomato bruschetta for 9 euros, which was outrageously expensive for the portion. There's no need to take money out of holidaymakers' pockets like that. We paid almost 73 euros with the drinks.
