"Housed in a castle that dates back to the early 12th century, this family-run restaurant offers a decidedly upscale Bavarian experience in a vaulted room built in 1834. The menu features a range of gourmet Franconian and Bavarian dishes, from liver dumpling soup and smoked salmon with potato pancakes to veal stew, pan-fried zander, and pork medallions with smoked beer and onion sauce, all beautifully plated with elegant sides and sauces. Be sure to order one of the traditional drinks, and save room for the cheeses and desserts, which you can burn off after your meal with a climb up the castle tower or a stroll around the courtyard."
Peaceful and relaxing location for a lovely lunch and coffee. Picturesque, easy to get to by car from Bamberg, with free parking nearby. Access to the castle courtyard is free, service at the restaurant hatches is friendly and welcoming.

Amazing views over Bamberg. Delicious food and great beers, plus it's lovely to just walk around and explore the castle area (great for kids too). We've also been to the evening restaurant, which is also excellent. Highly recommended if you're in the area. Cheers to Oliver and all. 🍻

The restaurant is located in the most important Bamberg tourist attraction - the Altenburg castle. Around fifty people can dine in, plus a couple of hundred seats in the beergarden. Good choice of beer, classic German food: meat, wurst, schnitzel. On Saturday lunchtime traditional German music band was playing inside.

Amazing trip up to this castle. You cannot see it from below and I didn't really even know it was up there except for the location on Google maps. There is a trail up the hill with a few meters with no sidewalk up a steep hill. Once you get there you're welcome with stunning views of Bamberg. Beer garden with food is your prize! Includes a rather large assortment of beer options compared to other local establishments. It costs 1 € to climb the tower, but other than that it's free!

A well-preserved, if Spartan castle. The views are wonderful and there is a nice restaurant outdoors that's excellent for enjoying the view. There's lots of place to run around so it's also a good place to take kids. You can also climb up a tower there.

Nice view to grab a bite to eat. The castle is beautiful and the food is pretty good for a tourist attraction.

Very nice staff, calm place and an awesome view from the tower. Hiked up from the city via the Rübezahlweg... worth a hike and worth a stay! Looking forward to summer to test the beer garden:)
