Well, if you don't know anything better, maybe it's good.I had a pepper steak with fries and salad, steak medium???? I couldn't identify the meat, a 1cm thick meat with fries that were saturated with oil. I turned to the waitress with a request to replace it, which was complied with. As a small apology she brought an espresso during the meal, which was nice, but I would have liked to drink it after the meal.Maybe others didn't feel that way.We were only here in Waischenfeld for one night anyway, but we didn't sleep in the sun.

Catering very peculiar, just wanted to take a short break on the hiking route and had the feeling of not being welcome. Unfortunately, beer was also flat
