“Visited because of MiPs Review. Russain Supermarket with the charme of the 70ies. Bund a very nice selektion of Russian beer. Sometimes without translation so I guess a lot of Lager and Pilsner. About 15+ different beers. Staff is as frindly as needed. Parking lot behind the building.“

“Visited on a windy and cold afternoon, 29th Oct 2018. Really liked the place. We sat in the main bar area, no one outside and one person in the smoking room; four others in our area, didn't venture upstairs. Friendly lady serving, four beers on tap; Haake Beck Krausen, jever Pils, Einbecker Ur-Bock (Dunkel) and something called Zolln Dunkel (the server just said it came from the South). Anyway each beer was fine and in good condition. I liked the place, old and tidy, full of character in a Germanic way.“

“Visited on the afternoon of Monday 29th Oct 2018. This is a smoking bar, but none of the customers on our visit were doing so. Jever Pilsener, Krombacker Pilsener and a Lowenbrau beer were on tap; so no real ticking to be had here. This is a 'throwback sort of Bierstuben' dark wooden bar, nicotine stained walls and ceilings, two joined drinking areas, one small serving counter and a clock that stopped years ago which no body can be bothered to correct and wind up. Come here for a decent beer and take a step back in time (before everywhere like this disappears) and look at the old pictures on the walls and the faces of the aging regulars.“

“This is more a fine resturant then a place to go for a couple of beers. Nice tables and meny. The price of beers is higher than the other two places I visited and the beers was from bigger breweries.“

“A fine brewpub with the brew kettle inside the pub and stem filling the place. Unfortunately only one beer at our visit but a pitcher at 9.95€ is a bargain! The Schweinhaxe was perfect as always in Germany and the service was fast. If they had a few more beers it would rate much higher.“

“A student place in the middle of Lubeck alt stadt. Medium out door place with view towards the street and 2 floors inside with a smoking room that was a danger to visit. Unfortunately only 2 waitresses to serve both floors and the outside patio that was a cause for very long waiting time far a simple beer. Only 4 beers on tap when I was there, but at an affordable price.“

“Actual not a bad selection of beers, spend 40 min to go through the micro selection. Easy and free parking. Yeah you can find many things in this super super market. Fill in your card if you are going to the Scandinavian countries, and also apply for the Citti card to give you more reductions;). There is a restaurant in the far end - didn’t try it out. (Found a bakery at the entrance that excellent sandwiches and coffee etc).“

“Typical north Germany pub, small beer choice but at least an interesting guest. Don’t miss the cold porc belly in belly, very good! Good kind service, at their pace, enjoy it calmly!“

“Visited in July 2015. Arrived for lunch, but there was not much available, ate some traditional Lübeck plate, fairly good. 4 beers on tap, Zolln dunkel was ok, but I had expected more. Small and dark place, really enjoyed the interior. Old wood.“

“Visited on a July Thursday evening in 2015, it’s a multi level place about 15 mins walk from the Hbf. Bar had 2 barrels on it and appears beer served from them, managed to get a table then waited ages to get served. On 1 beer on which was ok. Place wasn’t rammed so a little peeved. It’s a nice venue but needs a bigger beer range really.“

“Finally made my way there, after several futile attempts over the last ten months (it was always closed!). The place is located on the edge of the Old Town, close to the museum quays. Rather dark inside, as if it was a cellar, it is one of the many decent places to go to in the city, but the only one that brews its own beer - unfortunately only one, unless one is into dashed versions, but these are U on RB, and rightly so. The staff are nice and friendly, and the food and the beer are inexpensive, German to the core, and decent. Might want to visit again. PS. the selection is what it is. I strongly believe it is unfair to give it a low score. After all, I cannot imagine any Ratebeerian going there without knowing it is a single-tick-place.“

“Visited in 2008 and enjoyed the Zwickelbier Food and atmosphere of being in a brew pub were good. Service a bit slow and quite pricey considering the beer does not need transporting, middlemen, etc“

“Located in one of the main streets of the Old Town in Lübeck, the place is something between a kneipe and a brewpub. The interior is rather dark and small and is filled with old-fashioned, worn out furniture. There is a biergarten outside but i haven’t tried it, perhaps next time. The staff are friendly but rather slow to serve. The selection is ok for a kneipe and consists of four taps, one of which is for the place’s own beer (which, however, is assumedly brewed somewhere else). the food is ok, just like in an average German brewpub. Not expensive and cozy. Might visit again.“

“Fantastic old vaulted cellar where we were given a table right at the back. There are other stories as well, but I was very pleased to be seated in the cellar on a busy Saturday evening. They have just one beer, which was fairly good. The food was classic German and quite good, and the service was okay. Worth a visit, but don’t come here for ticks.“

“Cozy dark brown and old fashioned bar. Decent service. The selection consists of six taps including one beer exclusive to this place. Fortunately that beer was good.“

“Very cosy small bar/reastaurent in Lubeck center. 5 taps and 6 not interesting bottes, but they do have their own beer "Zolln Dunkel". Very dark place. Had a "frikadelle" and it was more like a "karbonade" it was quite good for the price.“

“A Russian supermarket not far from the centre of Lübeck. There is a good selection of Russian beers that are not easily obtained in this part of the country. If you plan to go Saturday, be aware that they close early. Not a place to find great beer, but good for tickers.“

“Visited during summer 2013. Quite dark and with a comfortable chill enviroment. Only one beer, but wow, so cool with a real zwickel directly from the barrel. The service was nice, the place was cozy and the beer was good. What else could you ask for“

“Have visited a couple of times. Placed in the towncenter it can be a bit difficult to park nearby, but possible within walking distance. The brewpub can at times be crowded and busy, wouldn´t call it a traditionel brewpub, it´s a bit to touristed for that. Neither the food nor beer is that interesting.. Friend staff and very quick service..“

“Visited on a Thursday night in 2009. Quite a British pub feel to this place. We sat in the upstairs room and bagged one of the last tables, the place was fairly busy. 3 or 4 different beers available on tap. Service was very good. We popped back in the next day around 1100 for a bowl of Goulash Zuppe and a beer before our flight home. Decent venue with a good vibe.“

“the ambiance is phantastic. this is the oldest cellar of this very old town. but the beers could be more interesting. quite boring pils naturtrüb (zwickel). food is good, so i am told.“

“Untypical (for this part of Germany) cozy and oldfashioned pub on the southern edge of the Altstadt; also untypical (for this part of Germany, again) broad selection of relatively rare interesting beers. Surely the best place in town for beer-geeks!“

“A few metres uphill from the river on the west side of the Innenstadt. The unique feature of this place is that it’s single beer is served fresh and uncarbonated from up-ended wooden casks in the manner of an Altbier or Kolsch. This is said to be a Lübeck tradition but from when I know not. Otherwise the usual multi-storey wood and anteek.“

“Possibly the most atmospheric tavern in Lubeck, with a front bar, upstairs room, small below-stairs snug and smokers’ kabinett, for those who like to dine bathed in cigarette smoke. Not a bad beer choice for northern Germany with a krausenbier and an Einbeck bock. Try the home-made Sauerfleisch, potted pork slices in a spiced sour jelly.“

“Nice cosy interiors with historical dimension. Had couple of beers, dark one, pils and some other for a short visit in 09/2007.“

“Hausbrauerei on the western edge of the inner city, near the Trave river. The building dates from different centuries, the lower you get, the older. Only one beer available, a Zwickl. Food and beer are okay, decent prices.“

“The brewpub is located in the old part of Lubeck. The interior is fairly modern and layout is kind of neat. Although their choice of music could be improved on.Unfortunately they have one beer available. I believe they also has a winter beer when in season. Oddly, they do have a number of Radler styles to choose from, which seem to be common in many places in Germany. The meals are of traditional German pub fare which is quite good. I had the Schnitzel which was excellent. "Old town" Lubeck is worth a day trip from Hamburg and the brewpub is a perfect fit. “

“So here I am in Lübeck, in mid-July, and I’m in a highly-decorated basement, and the beer on tap is Holsten Pils, and the sound system is entertaining us all with a so-called "evergreen" version of "O Little Town of Bethlehem". This is the Ratskeller zu Lübeck, underneath the ancient Hanseatic city’s City Hall. I’m told that "evergreen" is the label for very kitschy, brass-driven happy orchestra music, and the group on this recording sounds like the demon offspring of James Last and Stars On 45. *shudder* And Holsten Pils is the pride of Hamburg, not far to the south-west of Lübeck. There’s a saying about this beer: "Holsten Knallt am Dollsten", which basically means that this stuff makes you drunk fast and delivers a nasty hangover very quickly. Holy Moly, now the orchestra soundtrack has moved on to "My Darling Clementine"! Back to the Holsten: it’s a very typical German pilsener, bit of an aftertaste, nothing spectacular about it. It’s exported everwhere, I’ve drunk it in Ontario, and yes I’ve had the hangover. "I Can’t Help Falling In Love With You". Oops, sorry. On to a second large glass. The Holsten is served here in the correct 0.5 litre glass and it’s average enough. The degree of perspiration I feel on my forehead indicates that this is a chemically-preserved and filtered beer, commercial, not brewed in small batches. "For Your Eyes Only". The wiener schnitzel was nice and the fries apparently bottomless, although I didn’t test the waiter after portion number two. I had hoped to visit the Brauberger, but they don’t open until 5pm. And the Alten Zolln was too much of a hike back across town with the weather threatening overhead, so the Ratskeller was the all that seemed to be left. This basement spot does get points for being interesting to wander around, with its large wooden storage barrels and the small intimate cabin-like recesses where two can snuggle up for lunch and even close an old wooden door. But I was happy to leave the basement, the barrels, the beer and especially the band. "When A Man Loves A Woman".“

“Brewpub situated in the old part of Lübeck. The restaurant has two floors and a cellar. The interior is from a closed down brewery, and on the wall, a large painting of Gambrinius, the patron saint of beers and brewing. Selection is very, very limited: Just one beer, their own (which I liked)+ some Radler-versions that seems popular in Germany for some reason... Good, friendly service that serves traditional German cuisine. Food was not extraordinary, but go for the beer - note the singular...“

“Semi-modern german Hausbrauerei, ornated with breweriana of the defunct local "Lück" brewery. The beer is tapped by gravity from real wooden barrel. Not great, but still worth a vist.“

“Nice dark atmosphere, staff served us immediately, there even was a room for smokers. The beer on tap were served carefully and the waiter who as actually the brewer was pleased to answer questions. The other guests were also pleased to talk to us. All in all a very nice experience. Cannot judge the food as we did not have any.“

“Only one beer, and in my opinion not too interesting, food ok but nothing special, premises quite nice and the atmosphere is relaxed. What I would, hoever, prefer is that the staff would have been a bit more friendly. I guess they were too busy because of lack of staff.“

“Very nice pub located in a former customs house in the southern part of the old town. Nice outdoor area on the sidewalk under the trees. Inside it’s all wooden panelling. They had live music when we were there. Service was quick, friendly, and helpful. We didn’t try the food, but they do serve dinner. They also serve a Zolln Dunkel, which is brewed especially for them. Overall one of the best places in Lübeck.“

larsga 5849 days ago

“Decent-looking modern place with seating on multiple levels. Both proper tables and stools. Music is horrible 80s pop crap, but not loud. They serve full dinners, but didn’t try them. Seems like they make only one beer (a zwickel), but it’s served from wooden casks, which is a plus. pIt’s smack in the middle of the old town, so if you are in Lübeck you definitely should pop by. It’s not as if there are lots of better places to go.“
