Peters Brauhaus

Recommended by a local. Authentic type of brew house, nice decor in rooms. Best part was the potato soup & sauerkraut, both the best we've ever had. House beer was good & served in smaller glasses so inexpensive $2.40. The schnitzel was just ok according to my German friend. The potato salad was good but a more of an American creamy type.

Service was a bit on slow side but hey it's Europe. Bring a coin because there is a guy sitting in restroom entrance making sure you pay which is really bad considering all the money we spent on food & drink there, it should be free.

Just stopped in for a beer, but it was great and our server was super friendly. The menu looked great, but we were doing a beer sample around town at 5 different places.

Lovely visit here. Came specifically for the kolsch. Fantastically refreshing on a hot, hot day. I had the cheese, butter, onion, and roll. Simple fare that was wonderful in every aspect. My wife and friend ordered the minced pork on roll. Known as Mett in Germany. We weren't aware this is raw ground and seasoned pork. We tried it, and it tasted fine, we just couldn't get past our own cultural biases on this one. Our server was great and I would highly recommend popping in.

I've tried German food many times before and this place was the best the German food place I have ever tried. I tried many dishes and all tasted fresh and authentic.

While visiting Cologne Germany, we took time to have meal here. Wonderful outdoor seating in the plaza. The service was great - while we spoke German to them, they spoke English to us! Great food and wonderful Gaffel Kolsch beer!!!!

Loved everything about it.

My favorite Brauhaus in Cologne! Our favorite waiter, Kai gave us recommendations of what to do while in town and made us feel at home. Great schnitzel, wurst, cabbage, kolsch, and potatoes!

I love German brewhouses and this was my favorite on my recent trip to Western Germany. If not apparent to you yet, Kölsch beer is all the rage in the beautiful city of Cologne and Peter's brew is on point. They have lots of tasty traditional food too so you can indulge in all sorts of German goodies.

The service, food, and atmosphere were all superb and I highly recommend checking this joint out. Be warned that it could be very crowded so try to make an appointment or come at an off-time.

We came here on a weekday for lunch and it wasn't that busy. I can see it getting more packed for lunch. So glad they have an English menu here because we don't speak a lick of German.

We got items off the lunch menu: the sausage and the knuckle. They were really big portions for the price. The sausage was okay. I didn't find it that special compared to your average sausage. The potatoes on the side were really good though.

On the other hand, the knuckle was really tender and I liked that way more. Not a big fan of mashed potatoes in general so they were okay. Everything was super salty though; I'm not sure if it was meant to be that way so that your beer would cut the salt.

Their house beer is super cheap so definitely give that a go just for the experience.

Side note: our waiter was really nice and attentive.

Came here after walking aroung Köln's Christmas markets. It was cold and Yelp steered me here. The place looked familiar which is why it caught my eye, like Rick Steves himself had been there before.

There was a bit of a wait, but it was well worth it. We were seated picnic style with some very nice locals. They were very gracious and despite the language barrier helped us pick out the Kolsch beer and for the entree, one of the specialties, the roast leg of pork.

The beer is absolutely delicious... crisp and refreshing. Exactly what I need after a long day of walking and drinking that mulled wine.

Our roast pork was delicious and served alongside potatoes with onions and mushrooms. The meat was flavorful tender and cooked perfectly.

Highly recommend this place... Very authentic Köln experience.

Kolsch and Schnitzel!

Highly yelped so expect a good amount of tourist, which plays to your advantage because the food is served rather quickly. Super tender pork schnitzel and melt in your mouth potatoes. Something about fried meat and beer, it just works.
