    bad drinks and unfriendly staff. After buying our drinks we wanted to sit down in the shadow and the waitress simply yelled at us to go sit somewhere else because we hadn’t sat down first to take our order at the table. this was simply not clear from the start and it was extremely rude to just tell of your customers. moreover the place was a deathtrap full of broken glass lying in the gravel ready for a child or dog to step on and end up at the emergency room. the drinks where also tasteless and boring. not worth a look just go somewhere else and youll be better of.

    Worst experience in Germany so far. The young waiter completely ignored customers. When he finally came to take the order, then said that he will serve us only if we tip him. First of all, it's pathetic. That means either the owner of the place is not paying normal salaries or the waiter itself doesn't have self-respect. I'd tip him anyway in another case, but after these words - no way. Second - when we asked the waiter if they accept cards he said "no, bye" 😂 We still found some cash and were waiting for him, but he didn't come anymore. If there is self-service there, that's fine, but write it on the fence then. If it's not - then I'm sad that it's hard to fire employees in Germany cause some of them are clearly too arrogant for this work. Nevertheless other waiters looked normal.

    The waiter was very unfriendly, like he did not enjoy us having a drink at his place at all. Also, he CHARGED €10 TOO MUCH on a €44 bill. Luckily, we checked it because we thought it was much. Furthermore, it's not possible to pay by card, which is quite unhandy. The atmosphere is nice, and the other waiters looked more friendly, but overall, it was a disappointing experience.

  • 4/5 Emese B. 10 months ago on Google • 122 reviews
    Nice, laid back biergarden right by the pond, with a large outside seating area. Enjoyed some cool Gaffel Kölsch and a few bites. Service is quite caothic for some reason, so you are better of going inside and getting your own order. But overall a very nice, chill place to hang out with friends on a sunny afternoon!

    (Translated by Google) Nice location and great view of the Aachener Weiher. Unfortunately, the service is rather moderately good and often slow and the chairs and tables are showing their age (except for the beer benches, of course - it's bearable). The food is okay, but you tend to go there for drinks anyway. All in all a nice place for a few drinks in the summer sun. It's a shame that the large wooden swings haven't been there for some time. (Original) Schöne Lage und toller Blick auf den Aachener Weiher. Leider ist der Service eher mäßig gut und oft langsam und Stühle und Tische sind in die Jahre gekommen (die Bierbänke natürlich ausgenommen - da ist es verschmerzbar). Das Essen ist okay, aber normalerweise geht man dort sowieso eher für Getränke hin. Insgesamt trotzdem ein netter Ort für ein paar Getränke in der Sommersonne. Schade, dass die großen Holzschaukeln seid einiger Zeit schon nicht mehr da sind.

    Not only they never explained it was cash only, not even a sign, I was really mistreated by the staff and they took my id by force and made me find a atm, I payed to get my id back and not even touch the food, which by the way is too pricy for the small size of the food. Just don’t waste your time and go somewhere else.

    (Translated by Google) Hm, somehow I always seem to have bad days when I come here. The coffee tastes good, the view of the Aachen pond is great (location) but I can't give more points. A little unmotivated waiter, sawing next door (sawdust and noise, on a Sunday). Would have liked to have stayed for more than one coffee but the feel-good factor is missing. There's definitely more in here (Original) Hm, irgendwie scheine ich immer schlechte Tage zu erwischen, wenn ich herkomme. Der Kaffee schmeckt, der Blick auf den Aachener Weiher ist toll (Lage) aber mehr Punkte kann ich nicht verteilen. Etwas unmotivierte Kellner, nebenan wurde gesägt (also Sägespäne und Lärm, an einem Sonntag). Wäre gerne für mehr als einen Kaffee sitzen geblieben aber der Wohlfühl-Faktor fehlt. Hier ist definitiv mehr drin

    (Translated by Google) The Aachener Weiher alone is worth visiting! Pure idyll! You meet, walk, relax and get to know new people and make old friends over a delicious, cool Kölsch! ? many reasons and the East Asian Museum is also around the corner! ? (Original) Allein der Aachener Weiher ist es wert besucht zu werden ! Idylle pur ! Man trifft sich, spaziert, relaxed und lernt bei einem leckeren kühlen Kölsch neue Leute kennen und alte Freunde wieder zu finden ! ? viele Gründe und das Ostasiatische Museum ist auch noch um die Ecke ! ?

    (Translated by Google) The staff is pretty understaffed. So it happens that you have to tell the staff what you wanted several times. I'm sorry for the staff. But that's not customer-friendly.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful, inviting beer garden right on the pond (which is finally clean and clear again). Beer garden menu is okay. Permanent staff excellent. Unfortunately no temporary help. But a pleasant place to stay in Cologne. (Original) Schöner einladender Biergarten direkt am Weiher (der endlich wieder sauber und klar ist). Biergarten Speisekarte geht in Ordnung. Stammpersonal hervorragend. Aushilfen leider nicht. Aber ein angenehmer Ort in Köln zum Verweilen.

  • 1/5 Wesley P. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Family visit in Cologne and wanted to go to a nice beer garden. Unfortunately it was more of a disappointment there. 1. Food came after an hour (beer garden 1/4 full and supposedly too many orders) 2. NO CARD PAYMENT 3. Cologne's gastronomy unfortunately left a bad impression The food (crispy chicken burger) was ok and just barely good PLV. Conclusion: Enjoy the Aachener Weiher without a guilty conscience with your own drinks and a picnic in front of the beer garden. It will save you time, trouble, and money. You haven't missed anything. (Original) Familienbesuch in Köln und wollte in einen schönen Biergarten. Leider war es dort eher eine Enttäuschung. 1. Essen kam nach einer Stunde (Biergarten 1/4 gefüllt und angeblich zu viele Bestellungen) 2. KEINE KARTENZAHLUNG 3. Kölns Gastronomie leider einen schlechten Eindruck hinterlassen Das Essen (Crispy Chicken Burger) war ok und gutes PLV gerade noch drin. Fazit: Genießt den Aachener Weiher ohne schlechtes Gewissen mit eigenen Getränken und einem Picknick vor dem Biergarten. Es erspart euch Zeit, Ärger und Geld. Ihr habt nichts verpasst.

  • 1/5 Tjeerd L. 1 year ago on Google • 2 reviews
    Nice location. After 2 rounds of beer and fun the waiter suddenly turned aggressive, didn't trust us to pay (cash only). Unhappy about this treatment, we cancelled our 3rd round and asked for the bill. He scribbled sth on a paper and because of the hostile treatment we decided to double check the prices. Surprise, surprise: overbilled. We got our money back, but will never go back. If you go, always check!
