Gaststätte Lommerzheim

Very friendly, super cheerful atmosphere! Very very tasty beer. At last some good beer!very tasty food! They bring you all the time until you put the paper on the bottle. They know that means stop 🤣. Wish we could try the porkshank!

My two local friends suggested that we end our recent pub crawl at this interesting location. It doesn't look much from the outside, but inside it was teeming with drinkers enjoying the beer, food and overall atmosphere. I would classify this as a really authentic, rough and ready Kölsch beer house. We descended into the bowels of this establishment where there were still a few tables free. Our larger than life Köbe was quick to serve us with what seemed like the obligatory Kölsch beer. No problem. I then went on to order their special pork chop which came with chips and fried onions. It was delicious. Eating and drinking in this cellar area was great except for one silly group of youngsters who insisted on shouting their heads off and playing stupid games. The oral confrontation that ensued lead to them leaving. It's rare that I complain but they were being really unreasonable. After they left we were able to conclude our evening in peace. All good.

I arrived at this restaurant at 7 P. M. on a saturday and it was already full of people. As soon as I looked the waiter in the eyes to ask him how long would it take to get a table he handed me a beer without even asking me if I wanted it :) In the end I had to wait an hour and half to get a table and had to share it with two strangers. I had the pork chop, it was really big. Beers kept flowing in all night long, the waiter marked them on coaster. I didn't see any menù so in the end the check was a surprise and they don't even accept cards for payment. To make a long story short, it was a really strange and unique experience to eat in this restaurant :)

Be prepared for a true Kölsch experience from sharing tables with locals, the swagger of the fellows bringing refills without ask and amazing authentic homemade food...loved this visit and a highlight of our visit to Cologne 🍻

Food and beer was amazing! Came for the pork chop and also ordered a bratwurst based on their recommendation. It did not disappoint! Service and atmosphere was old school in the best possible way. Bartender was fantastic! This place is a gem!
