    One of the venues you can only find in Cologne...Schlager music, a 40+ crowd and lots of fun

    STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! It has horrible service and very rude staff. We came there with my husband and two daughters before it was open and looked around, checked the menu outside. My two year old said she was cold and we sat her on the patio chair to put extra jumper on her. The exact same moment we put my daughter on the chair this awful man showed up. He came from the inside of the restaurant and started pulling tables apart clearly irritated by the fact we sat our toddler on the patio chair. He didn’t even ask if we would like to eat in the place. He started yelling something in German to us, I guess telling us that he needed to open umbrellas. We responded that we just needed a second and we would leave, there was nobody else at that place. Clearly people don’t line up to dine at that rundown place. He completely ignored what we responded and proceeded opening the umbrella almost hitting our two year old on the head. It was outrageous. My husband and I was shocked. I took pictures of him and told him of who he really was: a miserable person who would dare to hurt a child. I’ve never seen anything like this before from any person let alone person who works in the service industry. Just appalling!

    Prices can get a wee bit high but hey it is location location location. It can get really crowded but it has great atmosphere and very friendly personnel.

    A very odd place. Lots of people dancing and very intoxicated early evening. Reminded us of a bawdy Tudor banquet minus the food!

    One of the first places we walked into that didn't feel like I'd interrupted someone's gigantic sit down meal. Football memorabilia and FC Köln scarves adorn the walls, as 2000s euro-pop blared out at ear piercingly loud volume to accompany the football on TV. The bouncer on the door looked like Phil and Grant Mitchell combined, a menacing bald fella who let us in after giving us the once over. Seemed to be getting everyone on a good day, allowing stags and Saturday drinkers in aplenty as the rain poured down outside. Kolsch was decent, Underberg was unnecessary. Service was great, wish I'd come back to this spot - probably wouldn't have been let in though.

    Good large pub for beer drinking football fans I think. Get there early or you will not get one of the only 6 available stools. Outside seating overlooking one of Cologne's picturesque squares.

  • 5/5 Jimbo V. 2 months ago on Google • 20 reviews New
    The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Locals even gave us their seats. As a tourist on a Monday where little is open this is a great place for a drink, or two.

  • 1/5 N S. 1 year ago on Google • 9 reviews
    Very rude bouncer. There was clearly room inside, yet he didn't let us in which was very disappointing as this was one of the few bars in the area that showed the world championship. If you don't want tourists in your pub, why open a pub in the most touristic area with over 4 hotels nearby???

    (Translated by Google) Always worth a visit. Best service, great atmosphere, good music (if you like hits and carnival music!), For a long time I have lovingly called it "living room".

    (Translated by Google) The staff is not very friendly and the shop is more geared towards an "older" audience. It actually only plays carnival music. (Original) Das Personal ist wenig freundlich und der Laden ist eher auf ein "älteres" Publikum eingestellt. Es läuft eigentlich ausschließlich Karnevalsmusik.

    Nice place. The bartenders were not the friendliest but they do their job! Had an ok time.

  • 1/5 Mahmood F. 4 years ago on Google
    I went there with a friend, a guy from inside wanted to take our place, and when we refused he called the security to send us out as he was a friend of them, then we have been treated aggressively, we called the police, they went to see the security camera records, and then came to tell us that what happened was outside the camera frame! Long story short, this place is run by a bunch of racists who are most probably not even schooled, I wouldn't recommend anyone to go there, it's a trash!

  • 5/5 Myllow P. 1 year ago on Google

    We may have been there too early 7-8pm, but it was empty, with no atmosphere, and even bored looking staff didn't talk to us.

    (Translated by Google) Unfortunately we were asked to leave the bar again (for reasons that we do not understand). The staff was extremely rude, the two waiters insulted us and were unable to speak to us normally. (Original) Leider wurden wir (aus für uns unverständlichem Grund) aufgefordert die Kneipe wieder zu verlassen. Das Personal war extrem unhöflich, die beiden Kellner beleidigten uns und waren nicht im Stande mit uns normal zu sprechen.

  • 1/5 Lana H. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Unfortunately had an absolutely negative experience with this pub. We were thrown out of the store with a group of ten girls after two minutes because we didn't yet know (two girls were still in the toilet) what we would like to order. Sentences like "Shut up" were heard from the waiter. We were very shocked and will not step foot in there again !! Absolutely unfriendly and unprofessional. (Original) Leider eine absolut negative Erfahrung mit dieser Kneipe gemacht. Wir wurden mit einer zehner Mädelstruppe nach zwei Minuten aus dem Laden geschmissen, weil wir noch nicht wussten (zwei Mädels waren noch auf der Toilette) was wir bestellen möchten. Es fielen von dem Kellner Sätze wie "Halt die Fresse". Wir waren sehr schockiert und werden dort keinen Fuß mehr hineinsetzen!! Absolut unfreundlich und unprofessionell.

  • 1/5 Kirsten W. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) If I could, I wouldn't give a star at all. We didn't know what we wanted to drink right after our arrival and wanted to look at the menu for the time being. Then we were kicked out. After trying to explain this, we were given words like "I don't care, shut up"! Not at all! (Original) Wenn ich könnte, würde ich gar keinen Stern geben. Wir wussten direkt nach der Ankunft nicht, was wir trinken wollten und wollten vorerst in die Karte gucken. Daraufhin wurden wir raus geschmissen. Nach einem Versuch dies zu erklären, wurden uns Worte wie "mir egal, halt die Fresse" entgegen gebracht! Geht gar nicht!

  • 1/5 Milena S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Mega rude staff. Immediately after 2 minutes we were asked what we would like to drink. Since we didn't know it yet, we were told straight away that we could go right away if we didn't drink. When a few people are still on the toilet and we want to have a look at the map, I find it rather cheeky to react that way. Never again ;). (Original) Mega unfreundliches personal. Direkt nach 2 Minuten wurde gefragt, was wir denn nun trinken wollen würden. Da wir es noch nicht wussten, wurde uns direkt mitgeteilt, dass wir auch direkt wieder gehen könnten, wenn wir nichts trinken. Wenn ein paar Leute noch auf der Toilette sind und wir noch kurz in die Karte gucken möchten, finde ich es ziemlich frech, so zu reagieren. Nie wieder ;).

    (Translated by Google) The backdrop in Cologne is a great place to eat in normal times. Unfortunately, like all restaurants in Corona times, a bit spooky. Unfortunately there is not much going on. Nevertheless, you can have a few Kölsch drinks with friends here in peace. (Original) Die Kulisse in Köln ist in normalen Zeiten ein tolles Lokal. Leider wie alle Gaststätten zu Corona Zeiten etwas gespenstisch. Es ist leider nicht mehr viel los. Trotzdem kann man hier in Ruhe das eine oder andere Kölsch mit Freunden trinken.
