Zum Häutebacher in Siegen

Very tasty food. Nice atmosphere.

What great food and what great -- friendly and perfect staff

Wir haben uns absolut wohl gefühlt. Jeder, vom Chef bis zur Service-Kraft ist super nett und arbeitet für den Kunden. Das Essen war sehr lecker, Grüße an den Koch! Der macht nen tollen Job!

Very rustic location, you feel incredibly well looked after! Mega delicious food, quick service, everything perfect. We'll be back!

Good food and value for money is right. Staff friendly, attentive and quick. I'd love to come back

February 2025 We don't come from Siegerland, but we go shopping in Siegen every now and then. We were craving Croatian food and found this place using Google Maps. After reading some reviews that often recommended making a reservation, We did that straight away – which turned out to be a very good decision. In the restaurant we noticed that a couple (without a reservation) couldn't get a seat because everything was fully booked. By the way, when we made our reservation by phone, we were immediately informed that we had the table from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. I think this is a very fair regulation, as it makes it easier to adapt to and in my opinion two hours is enough for a meal for two. The restaurant does offer some parking spaces, but they are difficult to come by. Therefore, we decided to park in the nearby parking garage (Old Town APCOA), which is just a few minutes' walk away. We were warmly welcomed on site by the owner and we were again reminded that that the table is available for two hours. The young, friendly staff also looked after us well and were always attentive. They regularly stopped by the table to ask whether everything is okay and whether we need anything else. Some reviews here on Google Maps mentioned, that maybe that was too much of a good thing, but that didn't bother us. The furnishings are very rustic and quaint, some would also say: 'completely old-fashioned', but it fits well with this restaurant and the whole thing exudes a pleasant atmosphere. You just have to like a facility like this! The food was served quickly. Both dishes were excellently seasoned and we really liked the taste. Although it is not shown in the pictures, I strongly recommend ordering a portion of Ayvar sauce with the dishes, because this sauce tastes very tasty and goes well with the dishes. Even if it doesn't quite come across in the photos, The portions were really generous - we had a lot to do to manage them. The price-performance ratio of the dishes was definitely fair. However, I'll now explain why it wasn't enough for the full 5 stars. We like to drink water with meals, BUT €7.50 for a bottle of water is really going too far. Of course we understand that everything is becoming more expensive, but €7.50 for a bottle of water is definitely more than borderline. We have already dined in many restaurants across Germany, but this place holds the record with this price for a bottle of water. The cappuccino was also okay in terms of price at first, However, it was very small compared to other restaurants! We have similar cups at home that hold 150ml, and the cup we got here was unfortunately not completely full. I estimate that it contained at most 130-140ml, which was very little for the price. But at least the cappuccino tasted very good. Oh yes, it still has to be mentioned positively, that at the end after the bill there were two small liqueurs (homemade Julischka) for free on the house, which tasted very good. This is a very nice gesture towards the guest and should definitely be praised, as it is not a given in every restaurant. In summary, I can recommend the restaurant for its delicious and generously portioned dishes, However, the price of a bottle of water leaves an unpleasant aftertaste.

Super delicious food no matter what you order, very friendly staff, very friendly boss, I would give 10 stars for everything 👍👍👍👍

We were there in January with four people, when we entered we were immediately told what time we had to leave, the food was great as always, we have been here several times before. What bothered us on the last visit was that we couldn't have a conversation in peace because a waitress constantly came to our table and started to clear away, although we still had the fork in our hand and we were repeatedly asked if everything was okay. And for the last half hour when our time was running out, no one came.

What can I say, we are/were regular customers. I've accepted the fact that the boss always only talked to my husband and mainly ignored me, because otherwise the staff was always attentive, friendly and quick, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was cozy. However, I had my key experience on my birthday. When the bill came, my husband casually dropped it, but of course it was ignored. While I paid, he once again only talked to my husband. I wasn't even looked at. Anyone else might have said "Congratulations." I found that very unfriendly but I would have accepted it. Then I held out a tip to him, which was noticed out of the corner of my eye, he took the note while he continued to talk to my husband...no look, no "thank you". I was completely treated like air. This is probably something personal, he's friendly to everyone else. That was one too many! Absolutely no go! It's a shame, but I don't have to be treated like that as a guest.

Nice rustic German pub with very tasty meat dishes! The restaurant offers something delicious to eat for everyone. Will definitely come here to eat again!😎👍🏻

If you don't get enough here, it's your own fault. It was very, very tasty and we will 100% come back. Price performance top.

Great friendly staff, very good food... will definitely come by again soon

A very nice, cozy and clean restaurant. The food and dessert were indescribably good. We can recommend it 100%. The waitresses and the boss were very courteous and attentive. Keep it up, we'll be happy to come back. Silke and Jörg from Bad Berleburg

Everything perfect! We would also give 6 stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟. We'll definitely be back.

Extremely good restaurant. Service top and fast. Food very tasty and quick. I would almost say that Zum Häutebacher actually has the best taste/service ratio in all of Siegen. (Picture is the dish "Robber Meat")

One of the best addresses in Siegen, excellent food, great service, cozy atmosphere. I always enjoy being here. I recommend the liver and the minced steak, which goes well with the Jever on tap and the homemade Julischka.

Bewirtung war spitze essen war Klasse und ausreichend service war spitze und sehr nett Lokal liegt sehr zentral in siegen

Delicious. Always well attended, you can't get a seat without a reservation

We always enjoy visiting. Good food, good, friendly service. Definitely recommended.

Unfortunately, reservations for 12 people were not made today. I was rudely “dumped” because I couldn’t go at the given time. Original tone of the young gentleman on the phone: "Well then it won't work... goodbye" - no alternative suggestion or waiting to see if I want to say anything else... "we have enough guests" Well then.

We were here on New Year's Eve 24 with 4 adults and a child. The waitresses were great, super friendly and very attentive. The food came very promptly and was super tasty. I can only warmly recommend it. I would come back at any time. 🙏🏼

Last Saturday (February 24th, 2024) we stopped by “Zum Häutebacher” without a reservation right after it opened at 5:30 p.m. and got the last two seats. And it was worth it: service was friendly and attentive, the food was delicious. We ordered the pepper medallions (pork fillet) for €21.00 and the funny Bosniak for €25.50. Both dishes came with a decent side salad. The food came quickly, was freshly prepared and tasty. At the end there was a Julischka on the house. Attached are two more photos of our dishes.

The food is delicious and the portions are very large, the staff is very friendly and pleasant to talk to. I recommend this restaurant to everyone!😃

Beau petit resto brasserie typique du centre. Accueil chaleureux, décor vintage très propre. Il y a une carte classique allemande avec snitzels, salades soupes et viandes. Nous avons pris des snitzels porc et dinde, délicieuses et copieuses. Je vous le recommande pour un petit stop lors d’une visite de Siegen.

We were at Häutebacher's yesterday and I'm totally thrilled. The food was wonderful. There were 13 of us there and we were served very quickly and in a very friendly manner. The meat was cooked perfectly, crispy and really tasty! The waitress was always there to accommodate your wishes at the table. A clear recommendation! You don't find that often anymore.

Great service, everyone was really nice, funny, short waiting times because they were organized, experienced and efficient. Tasty, very generous portions, large tables available and pleasant atmosphere. Extra requests will be gladly fulfilled. As a guest you feel like a king.

We were completely satisfied. The food came quickly and everyone had their plate in front of them almost at the same time (this doesn't always work with 16 people) The waitresses were very quick, nice and funny. Thank you for the lovely evening.

Been there twice now and have never been disappointed. The food was served quickly and the portions are really generous. I had to struggle a bit there. I recommend the grill plate and the extra liver. Delicious! Everyone was happy and full afterwards! The atmosphere is very pleasant. My highlight was the service, which was very communicative and quick. Finally there was a Julischka. It certainly wasn't the last time there!

As always, great food, quick service, very friendly. Always very happy!

Das Restaurant liegt zentral in der Siegener Innenstadt. Die Erreichbarkeit ist gut und Parkplätze finden sich in ausreichender Menge in den umliegenden Parkhäusern. Wir waren am 10.11.2024 mit 15 Personen zum Abendessen in besagtem Restaurant. Die entsprechenden Plätze wurden ca. 1 Woche im Vorfeld ohne Probleme reserviert. Der Empfang durch den Wirt war ausgesprochen freundlich und herzlich. Die Aufnahme der Getränke geschah zügig und profesionell. Dies bleib auch so bis zum Ende unseres Besuches. Die Bedienungen sind sehr freundlich, höflich und auf Zack. Mit gleicher Professionalität wurde die Essensbestellung aufgenommen. Das Essen kam zügig. Es gab keine Fehler und keine Patser. Das Essen ist schmackhaft und entsprach den Erwartungen. Das Preis - Leistungsverhältnis stimmt. Was bleibt ist die Erinnerung an einen perfekten Abend mit Freunden, der durch das Team des Häutebachers perfekt vollendet wurde. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

There were six of us. The drinks and food were served quickly. The serving staff was very nice. The meat was a bit mixed. The portions were large. All in all a nice evening with delicious Erzquell Pils.👍😀

It's a shame that I can't give more stars. I really wanted and had an appetite for Siegerländer Krüstchen and was disappointed, not because the schnitzel was bad but because it had nothing to do with the way a Krüstchen was served. The portion of fries was large but that was it, thin broken light fries. The service: We had barely sat down when the boss was already standing at the table with a pad and pen and was practically prompting us to order. The other young service staff were hectic and unprofessional so they weren't skilled workers, that's my impression. We somehow felt pressured to eat quickly and then say goodbye. Well we paid 75 euros for three schnitzels with fries and salad, a pilsner, 1 Ramazotti and two cokes. I'm still doing a quick conversion to DM in my head. I wouldn't have paid 150 DM for schnitzel with fries before. Krüstchen used to be a maximum of 13 marks, today it's converted to 37 marks. I know that you can't count on things like that anymore, but please do the kitchen and service well and in such a way that you don't feel pressured to leave the shop quickly so that you can occupy the table again.

COME - ENJOY - COME AGAIN - Photo by Grill plate and liver

Rustic, beautiful restaurant with very tasty food. The service was on point. The dishes we ordered were also at the table after a few minutes. The quality and preparation of the meat was simply top👍 Gladly again at any time.

After a friendly welcome, we quickly received the menu and also the first delivery of drinks. The menu offers a variety of Balkan cuisine but also schnitzels and the like. After ordering, the side salad consisting of some cabbage and iceberg lettuce arrived very quickly. The salad was rather boring and didn't taste good due to a very tasteless dressing. The main courses also came very quickly. Definitely a price to pay for speed. Unfortunately, in my opinion, something at the expense of quality. The meat was heated very quickly and was therefore a bit dry. Fries and djuvec rice were well made and almost the highlight of the meal. The service was definitely very friendly and attentive. The ambience is a bit old in my opinion but it's fine if you like it. Overall, a visit with ups and downs.

Our family has been eating here for decades! The food is awesome and the staff is courteous and almost like family.

Tolles. familiengeführtes Restaurant in Siegen. Sehr gute Küche, die das bodenständige deutscher Gerichte mit dem Pfiff vom Balkan vereint. Ein Besuch im Häutebacher lohnt immer.

Great. family-run restaurant in Siegen. Very good cuisine that combines down-to-earth German dishes with a Balkan twist. A visit to Häutebacher is always worthwhile.

There were four of us at Häutebacher. Atmosphere very nice. Service was very nice, only a short waiting time. Salad was very tasty, but in our opinion the price/performance ratio wasn't right. You can get a portion like this cheaper elsewhere. Robber meat was fine. Here too we have eaten better for 22 euros. But portions were very generous. Deduction because a special request was not implemented at all, a soup order was implemented incorrectly. 2/4 orders with errors. And because for two dishes the price/performance ratio wasn't perfect for us.

Es ist eine große Freude dort zu essen. Der Wirt und die Bedienung sind immer gut gelaunt, sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Essen ist total lecker. Wie schon, dass das Restaurant in der zweiten Generation weitergeführt wird. Ich gehe seit 22 Jahren sehr gerne dorthin.

Unfortunately, no more than 5⭐️ is possible. Went there again today, the food was great as always. Fresh, the meat cooked to perfection and the rice... divine. The shop is packed... the service is relaxed, friendly and super fast...." Very good, consistent cuisine for years... or rather decades! Super friendly! Food always fresh and prepared to perfection. Short waiting time. We like to go there again and again.. 👍👍👍

Very fast and courteous service. The food is served in gigantic portions. Unfortunately, most of the meat was on the grill for too long and was therefore very dry.

Very friendly staff, owner-run rustic restaurant. Attentive, helpful, fast food of very high quality.

The food and the staff is good.

Wir haben das Lokal auf Grund der Bewertungen ausgewählt. POS. War. Sehr freundlich und schneller Service. Gute Bier vom Fass Auswahl Der Salat war frisch und sehr lecker. Muss sagen er war beim Essen das fast beste. Der Reis war super Die Schnitzel waren lecker trotz Fritteuse Portion ist riesig Alles sauber und gepflegt Sehr Kinder Freundlich Urig Negativ war leider Die Wein Empfehlung Das Fleisch war stellenweise Übergart Sehr sehnig Die Bratkartoffel TK und Fritteuse Die Pfeffersosse war eher braten Soße mit trocknen Pfefferkörner (grüne eingelegte und etwas Portwein und Sahne machen die Soße besser)

Beautifully rustic, clean and well maintained. The food tasted very good and the portion was generous. Service very pleasant and polite. Price-performance ratio good. Very well attended, which also speaks for the good cuisine and quality. It is recommended.

The best Croatian food far and wide and the quality also offers an excellent price-performance ratio. Always fresh, tasty and the portions are generous. The staff and the landlord are extremely friendly and accommodating. Absolutely recommended!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Super good and deliciously seasoned food. Very friendly staff. Definitely worth it. Thank you!

A good restaurant with very good food and service.

Friends invited us over and we were really excited 👍 The food and service were great. Thank you for a nice evening 😍

Our absolute favorite restaurant for a long time! Everything is just right here, from the service to the absolutely delicious food. Every time we think about trying something different, we always end up here. I strongly recommend that you make a reservation early; if you're lucky, it might be difficult as the restaurant is justifiably always full.

Schönes Ambiente, sehr gute Auswahl an Speisen. Sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal. Alles in allem absolut Empfehlenswert. Jederzeit wieder!

Real German cuisine with a Slavic touch (if you choose). Generous portions at an affordable price. Nice and typical establishment.

So the food was just great and I will definitely come back

A great restaurant run by the 2nd generation owner with a very good price-performance ratio. Attentive and friendly service.

You can go there for delicious Croatian cuisine, not too expensive.

A really great, delicious kitchen.

The greatest service staff, friendly, always attentive and always have a saying in store. The boss is also very friendly and always concerned about the well-being of the guests. We had a great evening. The food was brilliant, arrived at the table super quickly, and very filling.

Looking from the outside you don't really know, but once you get inside you enter a different world. Excellent fast and friendly service. Ambience very nice. The food was more than excellent. The evening was also a lot of fun for our group. The next time you visit Siegen, there will only be one address for food. Thank you

Very, very tasty food for a ferry price. Staff super friendly and always happy

Nice staff Super delicious food Plenty on the plate

Best food, great service and legga beer!!!! The welcome is simply warm! What more could you want, always again👍👍👍🤗

Great food especially the liver, which I always order. Nice location and best service. I had ordered a table for Easter Monday at short notice on my birthday, got sick with a high fever and tried to cancel twice and no one answered. Yesterday, in the middle of a customer conversation, my cell phone rang and the owner called me Minna. No go, no good advertising, my customers also heard everything from the shouting. Nevertheless, I can recommend this restaurant

There were four of us and ate 2 grill plates, 1 cevapcici plate and a salad skewer. All meats were juicy and perfectly seasoned. The salad with a lot! Turkey and yogurt sauce was the best I've had in a long time. The waitresses were all very friendly and attentive, but not intrusive. The food was very tasty, fresh and filling. There was also a cozy, quiet atmosphere. We were particularly surprised by the service. We were served very quickly and got our food in record time. We have never experienced this anywhere before. The prices for food and drinks are moderate, although it should be mentioned that we were served extremely large portions. We were all really excited and will be happy to recommend this inn at every opportunity. We would be happy to come back. This inn is our favorite!

Highly recommended! Cozy, family-run restaurant with Croatian specialties. The food is fresh every time and at a fair price. The portion is always generous, so everyone can get enough. I have been visiting the restaurant almost since it was founded, including at celebrations. And I still enjoy eating there comfortably. There is always a Julischka to say goodbye.

Delicious food with fair prices. Large portions for people who like to eat meat

A cozy restaurant with ambience. Owner-managed restaurant for years. Great food. Good prices. Absolutely recommended. M. Schöler

We ate really well. We can recommend the grill plate, apart from a piece of meat everything was good, the rice was a bit too chunky, but still tasty. But there was so much that we couldn't get everything done anyway. Attentive and nice service, good price-performance ratio and there was also a Julischka ♡ ´ivjeli. Gladly again.

Wieder 1 a das Essen, und die Freundlichkeit.kann man nur weiter empfehlen. Wenn man den Teller nicht schafft, kann man den Rest auch mitnehmen. Super.

Definitely recommended. We ate schnitzel and Croatian meat dishes here. A vegan also got her money's worth with breaded feta. The schnitzel didn't blow me away in terms of meat and the mushrooms in the hunter's sauce were from a can. Here I would have liked something homemade with fresh mushrooms. The Croatian pieces of meat, on the other hand, were very good. The portions are very large! The service is quick, courteous and joking. The ambience is reminiscent of an old restaurant - it has a certain charm, but a little modernization would be good. Ultimately, this is complaining at a high level. Reasonably priced - I paid around €30 for a Jägerschnitzel and three drinks.

Quaint restaurant with very friendly service and delicious food.

Apparently, where there is light, there is also shadow. Very satisfied last time and now bitterly disappointed. We had the table until 8 p.m. At 7:30 p.m. the waitress came and brought us the bouncer schnapps. At 7:45 p.m. we were immediately cashed in. Service was subpar. The lady cleared the table while I was still eating. The whole comfort was disturbed. The long-haired waitress was very nice. To eat, the rice was hard, undercooked, the meat wasn't really warm and the salad was already collapsing. So we definitely won't come back again.

Nice staff, food was very tasty, I was hungry again, no time for pictures.

Nachdem es mittlerweile schon schwierig ist, in Siegen einen ordentlichen Mittagstisch zu bekommen, waren wir kurz entschlossen nochmals im Häutebacher… von früher immer mal wieder mit guten Erfahrungen bei Service und Mahlzeiten. Wer das Restaurant nicht kennt wird es wohl auch kaum finden und bei der äußeren Umgebung kaum einen guten Gastronom dahinter vermuten!? Alles in allem ist in den letzten Jahren im Restaurant so gut wie nichts verändert worden, aber das Gesamtpaket stimmt trotzdem. Hier geht man hin und es gibt keine Überraschungen - alles wie immer eben :-) Insofern also nach wie vor einen Besuch wert. Sehen und gesehen werden zählt da eher auf der Koblenzer Straße

The food was really tasty for moderate prices and was prepared quickly. The service was attentive and our table was really comfortable in the front part of the restaurant. And all at a very reasonable price. Anyone who enjoys eating Balkan food should feel very at home here at all times.

We came here with friends on the occasion of the city festival and were not disappointed! Cozy and rustic atmosphere, very nice staff and deliciously prepared Croatian dishes of fresh and good quality. There was also freshly tapped Erzquell. What more could you ask for as a guest? In any case, it wasn't the last time we were here.

Excellent food and the price is good. :)

Great food and very good beer...

Had a quick meal here today. The house was full, but we got one of the last tables. The staff was super friendly and very attentive, something you are hardly used to from other restaurateurs. Drinks and food were prepared quickly and tasted great. Can only recommend Häutebacher. Gladly again.

Great food at fair prices!!! Gladly again🎉

We only came to this restaurant because it was the only thing open for lunch at that time and couldn’t have been happier. The food/beer was amazing and service was awesome (Jacob talked with us about American basketball for a long time). It was so good, we came back the next evening for dinner. You won’t be disappointed!

Very cozy, home-style restaurant/pub.. Food very tasty 😋 not recommended for larger groups. Extremely tight fit

Having been here again after a long time, the service was very friendly, nice, and accommodating. As a guest you feel very comfortable here and the food was again super tasty. Top 👍.

We always enjoy coming here. Delicious food, attentive service, good hosts, thank you

Ein gelungener Abend. Vielen Dank an das Team für den super Service

Zweiter Weihnachtsfeiertagabend...spontan zwei Plätze bekommen.... Essen blitzschnell fertig und auf den Punkt...wie immer! Wir kommen immer wieder gerne hierher.

Gute Atmosphäre freundliche Bedienung keine langen Wartezeiten beim Essen

Essen sehr lecker in einer familiären Atmosphäre, kenne ich von dem Restaurant nicht anders. Essen kam schnell , genauso wie die Getränke. Wir waren 9 Personen mit ordentlich Hunger und Durst. Der lustige Bosnijak ist der Hammer! Weiter so !

Stammlokal, immer freundliches Personal, Essen sehr gut.

Trotz vieler Gäste zur Weihnachtszeit wurde man sehr flott bedient. Das Essen war sehr lecker. Vielen Dank für den tollen Service! 😊

Wir entschieden uns aufgrund des Hinweises auf der Homepage, dass es sich lohnen würde, die günstigen Mittagsangebote auszuprobieren, das Restaurant zu besuchen. Im Restaurant, das einen guten Eindruck machte, erfuhren wir dann, dass es im Dezember diese Angebote nicht gebe. Verärgert verließen wir das Restaurant. Gehört ein entsprechender Hinweis nicht auf die Homepage. Ein Tipp für Mittagsgäste: Fragt zuerst ob es im entsprechender Monat Mittagsangebote gibt.

Mein aller liebstes Restaurant! Immer freundlich und familiär!

In allen Bereichen einfach nur Top. Wenn ich wieder mal in Siegen bin, komme ich auf jeden Fall wieder. PS: Die Leber ist der Hammer!

Super lecker und reichlich gegessen. Preis/Leistung völlig iO.

Ich möchte gerne den äußerst freundlichen Inhaber hervorheben! Es war wie immer super ❤️!

Sehr gute Location.. Ur Gemütlich...auf alle WÜNSCHE wurde bei der Bestellung eingegangen...nettes Personal...Seit langem mal wieder positiv Überrascht Bitte weiter so .-)

Meiner Meinung nach eines der gemütlichsten Restaurants in Siegen. Wir sind seit Jahrzehnten Gäste, die Familientradition und die Freundlichkeit sind mit der nächsten Generation weitergegeben worden. ;-)

Zufällig dran vorbei gekommen, sehr zu empfehlen! Super freundlich und Essen sehr lecker!

Freundliches Personal und super leckere Speisen. Immer wieder gerne

Gutes Essen,sehr nettes und kompetentes Personal. Besser einen Tisch reservieren, ist ein gut besuchtes Restaurant.
