Unfortunately, on May 9th, 2025 I had the experience that Andy no longer had himself under control after 6:30 p.m. and he was alone, after we and others waited for over an hour, we all drove without eating, I hope he gets this alcohol problem under control again.
The restaurant was full at 5:05 p.m., but the service was still very good and friendly. The staff were cheerful, the food plentiful, fresh, and delicious, and the service was really good value for money. Pickup is also available. Parking is free in the DB garage. We'd be happy to come back.
Very disappointed because it hasn't been possible to reserve a table and redeem our voucher for months. After today's request, I was snidely told that (as always) everything was fully booked, that nothing had been picked up locally for two years and that the voucher could only be redeemed in Roetgen. It's a shame because we had a very good meal there a few times and were treated kindly. Unfortunately there was no sign of that today and we lost the voucher... not a nice finish in Merkstein
