This place is absolutely incredible! The food was out of this planet, the setup of the restaurant itself was "yes, I am in Germany now!" and the staff was friendly, very helpful plus the owner (this sweet lady) is speaking English (and some Greek... :) ). Oooh, I wanted to kiss the cook!!! (the owner's mother - yes, this is a family run business and that says it all)

Franconian friendliness and hospitality like it’s in the textbook! The juggler and his companion spontaneously came to this charming tavern in downtown Nuremberg. We were spontaneously accommodated, we got two very tasty schnitzels and watched the goings-on in the restaurant at the counter. Here our beer was refilled without being asked and we were given two schnapps... a particularly iconic restaurant visit!

Good to kneel down on. The service has a heart and a soul, the food tastes almost as good as grandma's and inside it looks just like grandma's. There are even real stub window windows here, simply a Nuremberg original that will hopefully be around in this form for at least another 100 years!

Absolutely rustic inn, with excellent cuisine and a very nice team! Absolute recommendation

Quaint little restaurant, the Wiener Schnitzel tasted great.

Very friendly, delicious food and an amazing atmosphere. We’ll be back!

Quaint, original Franconian little inn. Nicely located in the city. The host sisters are real originals and you feel like you are in good hands and entertained! Hearty (including vegetarian) dishes, a small menu but always a board with daily specials. I've always had a good meal there 👍🏼

Very cozy but small. Advance order necessary! Food very good. Especially the fish soup. Service is multilingual and absolutely friendly.

Great service, delicious food, cozy atmosphere... Any time again. We had a lot of fun and didn't have to wait long despite being busy. Thank you for a successful evening.

Great ambience and service, the food is okay too, but nothing where I would say I definitely have to come back again and again.

The food was simply A+++++! And the service was very friendly! A nice family and cozy restaurant!

Totally rustic, original Nuremberg restaurant, very good food, friendly service and the landlady cooks herself... exceptionally well

Tranquil and medieval-looking. Very nice restaurant with friendly staff. Lots of wood paneling and authentic decoration. The Schäuferle is an original dish. A kind of roast pork with a crust that is so tender that it falls apart into pulled pork. You can tell that I'm not an expert, but I see myself as a connoisseur. Worth a visit. Don't forget to reserve.

Fast, warm service, large portions, very good taste, fair prices. We'll definitely be back. 👍

The Flöẞla is a quaint little restaurant with small niches for eating. The boss serves herself and she is a very competent woman and is very concerned about her guests. Reservation recommended

Great food ,atmosphere,staff,service and prices !

A visit to Flößla is simply part of every visit to Nuremberg. Rustic restaurant with cozy niches. Good beer, nice and very friendly staff and above all a brilliant Schäufele that almost falls apart by itself. We always enjoy coming here.

I had dinner here this evening. Wow, I was thrilled. Totally rustic furnishings, excellent food and first-class friendly and courteous staff. I will 100% come back.

Great Franconian food in a rustic atmosphere. Very friendly service and boss. Happy to come back!

Super nice restaurant, totally rustic and cozy, very nice and friendly staff and extremely delicious food (regional dishes) with nice portions. It's a shame... that I don't live in Nuremberg otherwise I would be a regular there.... but if I ever come to Nuremberg again, I will 100% go to "zum Flößla again Oh yes, the parking garage is only a few meters away.

What a gem! A friend who grew up in the area brought us here. Loved everything about the place.

Original Franconian food in the middle of Nuremberg. Small but fine restaurant in a historic atmosphere with attentive service. Be sure to reserve in advance.

Nice little restaurant. The first time the knuckle was great, unfortunately the last time wasn't as cross. Beer selection is also great. I'll be back again.

Rating it 5 stars primarily for the service and atmosphere. We ordered this pork shoulder dish where the meat fell right off the bone and was cooked quite well. I would describe this place as quite cozy and suitable for a dinner for 2.

Walked in without a reservation on an early Thursday evening, and they were able to squeeze us in (though we would only had two hours to eat - which was more than enough for us!). Some locals at the next table suggested we get the schaufele, a Franconian specialty of pork shoulder. It was REALLY well made; the meat was so tender it fell off the bone and the skin was beautifully crispy. When we left, we flung open the front door to find it was raining heavily outside. The woman host was so kind as to give us an umbrella she had on hand so that we could stay dry!

We went there spontaneously in the evening and ate Kaiserschmarren. This was truly one of the best I've ever eaten! The two waitresses were super friendly and served us food even though the kitchen was “used up” because Christmas was just around the corner. In addition, the atmosphere is very cozy. Thank you again. If we are in Nuremberg again, we will definitely come back! :)

Great secret atmosphere With a very nice hostess And eat deliciously.

Oh my god! Delicious and such wonderful people running this small family restaurant. Rocked up just as it opened and managed to be fitted in before all the bookings arrived. Food was perfect and could not be faulted. But the way we were treated was so good. Thankfully, we managed to get in as we’re here for only one night. I think booking may be useful

The ambience is great The waiter, a dream ;-) The food (especially the brawn) was unbeatably good!!!

I hardly ever write reviews, but in this case it's an incredibly good restaurant that deserves a good review!!

I have a tomato and wheat allergy myself and was able to eat excellently! Highly recommended and very competent staff. <3

Asked for a table for the evening on Saturday lunchtime and happened to get a seat. Had a fantastic one with Krautweckle and Scheuferla. Food 9/10 Service 10/10 Ambiance 9/10

Everything great. Definitely recommended.

Great service, quaint restaurant, very tasty food and well-chilled drinks - a great evening 👍

Wow what a cozy and quaint place to have a wonderful meal! We are so very fortunate to have found this Fantastic restaurant to dine in. We had the chef’s special of the pork shoulder and a wienerschnitzel qnd could not have had a better meal other than two chef special pork shoulders😃 Do yourself a Big ol' favor and find this wonderful little gem👍👍🏾👍🏿

The restaurant is small with only 10 tables, so it’s best to make a reservation in advance. I’d recommend the Schäufele, it was very good. The service was very good as well. I will definitely come again.

Of course it's the Christmas market. But being dumped like that on the phone is already a weak testimony.

Quaint and great restaurant with friendly service. Delicious beer and, above all, very tasty food. Here we cook like our mothers do, in the truest sense. If you are ever in Nuremberg, you should have been and eaten here. Thanks for the great evening

Super tasty “grandma food” - service typically Franconian. Be sure to reserve

Delicious Franconian food made with love. Schnitzel was very juicy. You could actually taste that it was fried in butter. Fried potatoes also well seasoned. Schäufele with tender meat and beautifully crispy crusts, dumplings are also very tasty. Great service, beautiful, rustic decor. Also centrally located, close to the Museum Bridge.

We had made reservations for a group to which a few more people had joined by the time of the appointment. The owner gave us a warm welcome and tried very hard to accommodate all of us (approx. 13 people), which worked after a short wait. Luckily - none of us would have wanted to do without this culinary fireworks display. From the cordon bleu to the Schäufele, the schnitzel and the goose with red cabbage to the Kaiserschmarrn for dessert - the portions were perfectly filling and tasted simply fantastic, with only enthusiastic faces from one end of the table to the other. The service was also absolutely friendly and attentive and the atmosphere in the rustic, cozy dining room invited you to linger - we felt totally at home. So much so that we went straight back that same week. Now a must for your next visit to Nuremberg!

A very rustic restaurant with original Franconian cuisine. My Schäufele were in a class of their own. Also worth highlighting is the absolutely empathetic service. We were thrilled and would love to come back. Reservation is advisable...

Great quaint restaurant, in a beautiful location. We made a reservation at short notice, the boss was super nice and, since we only had a small table at first, she later gave us a larger table. The food was very good and large portions at very fair prices! What is particularly worth mentioning is that you feel very welcome here, and at the end there was even a “Schnäpsle”. This is a rarity these days. If we are in Nuremberg again we will definitely eat here again!

Very cozy restaurant in which it is still pleasantly quiet even with many guests. Plus great food and friendly service. Pre-order when visiting!

Zum Flößla is a rustic inn in the middle of downtown Nuremberg. Food: Here you can find hearty home cooking at fair prices. The portions are large, the food tastes delicious. The Kaiserschmarrn for dessert was a real highlight. Unfortunately there is hardly any choice for vegetarians and vegans, which is not up to date. Service: Super nice service, even the boss asked about our well-being. After a small mishap we were given a round of schnapps. The only negative point is the expectations, it was said that the Kaiserschmarrn lasts half an hour and in the end it turned out to be over an hour. Ambiance: Super rustic, cozy, Franconian. A real original, you immediately feel at home.

An incredibly great place. Very nice service and great dishes. There were 10 of us there and everyone had a smile on their face after eating.

Food and service are excellent.

Just the way you want it as a guest! A very attentive and guest-oriented service, warmth and great food. Thank you for the hospitality!

Beautiful rustic restaurant, friendly and attentive service serves freshly prepared Franconian delicacies of satisfying quality.

Just came to Flößla by chance. The ambience and food were very good. The junior manager was so convincing when it came to service. That we ordered a table with 3 Schäufele for the next day 👍.

The selection of dishes could be a little larger. It was tasty nonetheless. I would come again.

Old, small, quaint and great restaurant on the Pegnitz. Super friendly and accommodating service, very tasty and cheap food. Greetings and big praise to the two bosses👍❤️

Clocky restaurant with delicious food. Highly recommended. The food tastes very tasty and the service is very friendly. Fresh cooking is also done here and the schnitzel is pounded by hand. The two of us were lucky to get a table without a reservation on Friday evening. But that was really just a coincidence. Unfortunately, everyone else after us and also callers were no longer so lucky. Therefore reserve at times.

Great service and delicious food! Very cozy restaurant where you can only feel good!

I highly recommend. Great food and a friendly atmosphere.

Get the Pork shoulder. That is all.

Great find. Staff were fantastic at explaining the menu and pork was some of the best I've had.

A lovely evening in a rustic atmosphere, with great cuisine and a lovely landlady! I'll be back!

Food top service top only recommended

Great place with great hosts and good, simple German (sorry Franconian) food

I would have really liked to give full marks, the atmosphere is great, the service staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, but my Schäufele was crispy. Well, it can always happen, generally it tasted great, the crust was great, the sauce was right and the dumpling was great too, only the Schäufele itself was really too dry or in the oven for too long or kept warm or something like that. I had to use a knife and fork to pry the crispy meat off the bone because I couldn't get it off any other way. I mean it was there in 2 minutes after ordering, so I thought "very quickly, as if it was already ready". The Schäufele from the neighbor's table looked juicy and the meat fell off the bone nicely, I guess I was nervous about that, I'll visit you again soon to test it out.

I was rather skeptical, the restaurant seemed small and the view into the small kitchen worried me at first, but what I got to eat was simply great. Delicious schnitzel, which was super tender and nice and crispy on the outside. The fried potatoes have a nice bite and are also damn tasty. Very happy again!!!

Schäufele absolutely 10/10 Huge portion Juicy, crispy, tender You can't complain Saturday at 6 p.m

Very good German cuisine. Ocksenbackchen was deliciously cooked stew, with a nice deep flavor. Delicious Kaiserschmarrn. And friendly service.

It was awesome 🤩 if you want to try German food,these place for you !

The best food we had in Germany up to that point and the waiter's attention was unbeatable.

Great service with a boss who is unique. I haven't been served so well in a long time. Food was also very tasty and reasonably priced. Gladly again

Awesome restaurant. Very authentic feel great atmosphere. Incredible food. The dessert is not as good as the main dishes. However the dishes are so incredibly tasty. Highly recommend.

Great little Franconian restaurant, with a small garden and very good food. They move very quickly and are attentive. Food tastes very good. Portions are not generous but absolutely sufficient.

I don't know how this restaurant is so well rated. I had the pfifferlinge (chanterelle mushroom) with potato and scrumble eggs. The mushrooms were completely tasteless. The "roasted" potato also were not so good. I like them soft inside and crunchy outside, they were just soft, as if not completely roasted. The dark beer was completely tasteless. I must recognize at least that the service was really good, people were nice and efficient.

Even without a reservation, we received a very friendly welcome and were looked after throughout the evening. The food was very good and the location is also very nice. Nice place with nice people. The old town as such is also worth seeing - invites you to linger.

The best home cooking like grandma's, but unfortunately no Nuremberg cheese on the menu

Friendly service, menu very limited in variety but good quality. I count perhaps a little above average...

Quaint restaurant, delicious food and delicious beers. Great service and thanks Olaf for the spontaneous table outside in the pole position. We would love to come back if we ever go to Nuremberg.

We had a wonderful evening at Flößla yesterday! The food was so excellent that even though I was full, I asked for a second helping! The food is all freshly prepared, the quality is excellent and the service is attentive and funny! We felt really welcome and will definitely come back! A big compliment and thank you to the entire team!

What happiness! Real German restaurant. Outside the tourist area. Super “homemade” dish, tasty and tender! Great service, frequented in the evening by Germans from the city. Not to be lost!

The food is uniquely good, and the service is unbeatable. Very very friendly. Thank you and 5 rightly deserved stars.

Incredibly good Franconian restaurant with very friendly service and delicious food.

The waiter was extremely unfriendly. If he didn't show up at 18:00, he would just say there was no seat available.

Very nice contact by phone Great location! Mom cooks here :-) Delicious, rustic, great service - we'll definitely be back! Thank you very much to the Melzig family

Today I was eating at Flößla with my daughter. Service as well as the food with great flair, everything was perfect. Anytime again 😃

Amazing food , service and atmosphere!!! Highly recommend!!!!

Super unfriendly staff that rejects the clients in the door. Can’t say anything about the food.

We were allowed to leave on Saturday at 8:15 p.m. (July, summer weather) because the kitchen was closed. That's sad for urban tourism in a big city, so we'll be unpacking our own sandwiches the next time we visit Nuremberg.

We didn't have a reservation. But a nice place was still found for us. The service is great, the small area for sitting outside has been lovingly decorated. The food was very good. I can fully recommend the restaurant.

We were in Nuremberg for the Bardenfest and ate, drank and people-watched at “Zum Flössla”. There was great food and delicious beer there. But the best are the landlady and the head waiter. They are really sweet, attentive and stay calm even in the hustle and bustle. It wasn't the last time we were there!!!

I think this was my favorite meal of our time in Germany. It was absolutely amazing and our waiter was great! I wish we could have eaten here numerous times!

This place was amazing. The food was wonderful, the waitress was friendly and helpful. My daughter was given a child portion which is good for her. My son loved the food so much he demolished an adult size portion. And all for a very reasonable price. The place was pretty busy, and it isn’t big so I bet it gets full quickly. There is outside seating, but the interior is beautiful. If you are in Nuremberg and do not visit place then you really have missed out.

A rustic Franconian restaurant in a top location but away from the crowds. It's worth making a reservation. Service was very friendly and the food (Schäufele) was a dream. Definitely try it out.

Excellent service. The blond lady is top. She do everything to help us seat for dinner.

One of the best meals I’ve ever had in Germany. Everything was amazing and super delicious.

Very cozy restaurant with very good cuisine. Typical Franconian dishes are perfectly complemented by classics on the menu and seasonal dishes.

Ox cheeks and dark beer at its finest...so delicious. Very friendly service and nice, cozy atmosphere! Again any time !

Quaint restaurant in Nuremberg with absolutely delicious food. The service was really friendly and of course we ate everything. The ox cheeks were awesome

It's better to reserve in advance, as we were only lucky enough to get a spot spontaneously. Very nice service, very familiar and personal. Visually as rustic as you wish and tasted impeccable. Definitely worth a trip!

A very helpful and courteous landlady with Franconian wit and very good Franconian cuisine. It was a very pleasant evening.

Really good food, good service, nice service

Great, rustic German cuisine. Our order came super quickly and tasted great! We had the Kaiserschmarren and the Ochsencheeks. The landlady exudes a wonderfully familiar charm, we felt very comfortable here and can recommend a visit.

Cozy, warm atmosphere and amazing food. Order the slow roasted pork shoulder, you won't be disappointed. Schnitzel cordon bleu was also fantastic.
