Brauhaus Reissdorf im Roten Ochsen

We picked this because of its proximity to our hotel and because we could get other beer. Steak and Schnitzel both very good. Friendly helpful server too.

A visit is highly recommended here. For a brewhouse clear map, for them all fresh and homemade, very tasty dishes, best rice meat, service very accommodating and fast. The prices are okay.

Door tal van mensen ons aanbevolen doch een teleurstelling. De obers zijn streepsjestellers - hoe meer je consumeert hoe beter je als klant wordt behandeld - ben je dit niet kijkt men je buiten. Ver carta

You should go to Cologne just to eat and drink at Brauhaus Reissdorf. If you walk in you may be ignored for awhile but once you are seated the table service is great. The food is delicious and reasonable price. The beer is out of this world. This is where Kolsch was born.

Im Ochsen lief bei unserem Besuch nicht alles rund. Der Service schien mit der Anzahl der Gäste überfordert, was zur phasenweisen Unterversorgung und zu Fehlern bei den Bestellungen führte. Aus der an und für sich guten Location könnte man mehr machen - zumindest drinnen.

Absolutely huge pork knuckle! It can serve a minimum of 2 people. The skin was nice and crispy and meat was a bit salty. It was better than the pork knuckle I had at Peters Brauhaus.They have menus in English but the servers that evening didn't seem comfortable speaking English. They have a 2nd floor where you can have a private party. Ver carta

My new thing is-every time I'm in Cologne, Germany, I need to eat pork knuckle. My gaawd, why is it so good?? and so HUGE?!?! This place is delicious. Started with a meat platter then got the knuckle, comes with cabbage and dumpling sides. No one in our party shared and we all went home with like 10 pounds collectively of pork knuckle. lol There were 3 of us who ordered the knuckle. Left over for daaaays! Beautiful view of the Rhine river and snow (on the particular day we went). I went with Germans, so they did the translating. not sure if these folks spoke english.

I visited on a Monday mid-afternoon. As a vegetarian I asked whether it would be possible to have an omelette as there was very little on offer on the menu (a salad with a boiled egg perched on top). I was met with a very stern "NO!". No apology or politeness. I felt like I was being told off. The lady obviously has some nice characteristics as some people turned up who she knew, who were met with smiles and warmth. A request for some tap water was met with "NO!" again - most likely because the bottled water on sale is €5.90!!! I am only marking this down due to the service as my friend enjoyed his schnitzel and chips immensely. I didn't really enjoy my extremely salty bowl of chips (minus a...

Siamo entrati per la prima ed ultima volta in questo locale molto squallido. C'era solo una coppia oltre noi, un silenzio di tomba che metteva in soggezione. Capisco che non sanno parlare l'italiano ma almeno sforzarsi di farsi capire su quello che poteva esserci scritto sul menu mi sembra logico. La cameriera non parla neanche l'inglese. Abbiamo ordinato un piatto non so di cosa è ci ha detto che era un piatto da bambini. Con grande maleducazione la cameriera non si è degnato di aiutarci nel comprendere i piatti così che non ordinassimo perché la cucina era già chiusa nonostante erano solo le 20.00Ci siamo alzati e ce ne siamo andati pagando solo l'acqua che avevamo ordinato che pure quella...
