Zum Alten Brauhaus

Heute waren wir während unseres Besuchs in Lüneburg im Alten Brauhaus. Vorsorglich haben wir reserviert, was sich als positiv erwies. Nach 19:00 Uhr war der Laden voll. Spätestens nach unserem Schnitzel und natürlich dem legendären Heidschnuckenbraten wussten wir auch, warum. Tolles Essen!!

Zuvorkommende, aber nie aufdringliche Freundlichkeit des Personals rundeten einen wunderbaren Abend auf dem Niveau gehobener Gastlichkeit ab.

Wichtige Information für die Weintrinker: Zum Essen hatten wir einen Riesling von Dönhoff.

None of us drink beer but we thought it wouldn't be a trip to Germany without an evening spent at a Brauhaus! This place did not disappoint. The entrance is through the courtyard directly into the bar area. The woodwork and craftsmanship were simply gorgeous. Our host led us to the restaurant side as we were there for dinner.

My husband got the beef tips and gravy over noodles with a beet salad. The beef was so rich, flavorful, and tender with the gravy perfectly complimenting the flavor of the beef. Not a fan of beets by any measure, he absolutely loved the beet salad which was sweet and served cold. My daughter and I got the schnitzel and it was absolute perfection. We finished the meal with creme brûlée which was topped with rasberry sorbet, fresh fruit, and spun sugar. Creme brûlée is by far my favorite dessert and, in my 50+ years, this was the best by far!

The restaurant is not huge. However, the wait staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. The dinning area is simple yet elegant without feeling like you need to be dressed up. I definitely would recommend this place...even if you don't like beer. It is the oldest brewery in Lüneberg.

What luck! We were able to squeeze in early on a Saturday night (you should make reservations). Cozy atmosphere. DELICIOUS food. Schnitzel, ragoo & pork medallions were all incredible. Reasonable prices. So if you plan a visit to Lunenberg, make sure to call and make a reservation. You won't regret it!
