"Świetna tradycyjna kuchnia frankońska z długoletnią tradycją . Lokal mieści się w jednym z najładniejszych budynków w tej miejscowości. Dobrze zachowany , starannie pielęgnowany " mur pruski". Zachowane w starym stylu wnętrza. Przestronny ogródek pod wspaniałym drzewem.Kapliczka w podwórzu i skrzynki z kwiatami na parapetach okiennych. Przesympatyczna obsługa - wydaje mi się , że ta długa lista zalet zachęci każdego do odwiedzenia tego miejsca , ponieważ tu trzeba przyjść !!"

"Currywurst Pommes absolut lecker. Für eine Gaststätte ungewohnt das Essen und Getränke abzuholen, aber auch okay. Hat ein gewissen Flair. Bedienung absolut nett."

"An einem Mittwoch... Während der Corona-Krise... konnten wir trotzdem (unter Einhaltung aller Vorschriften) ein fränkisches Mittagessen im Biergarten genießen. Wie lange haben wir das vermisst! Freundliche Bedienung (ok, draußen Selbstbedienung), gutes Essen und Trinken (Kapuziner), fränkische Preise."

"Typische Dorfwirtschaft, die alle vom Aussterben bedroht sind. Sonntags gutbürgerlicher, fränkischer Mittagstisch. Ansonsten Biergarten in Selbstbedienung. Unser Mittagessen am Samstag war wie erwartet gut. Ideal nicht nur für Wanderer und Radfahrer."

"Ich hatte das Cordon Bleu mit Salat. Es war mega lecker und von der Portion im oberen Bereich. Der Preis ist mehr als in Ordnung, geradezu ein Schnäppchen. Auch die Bedienung ist sehr gut . Danke und weiter so. Wir kommen gerne immer wieder."
