Relatively expensive, 12-13 euros for a handful of wedges and a medium-sized salad. And then only with cash. Overall rather disappointing.Short addendum: the card may say that cashless payment is not possible. However, that doesn't change my point of view that it's not appropriate to only offer cash.What was unfortunately not on the menu was that the quality (goulash) and quantity of the food did not necessarily correspond to the price.By the way, praise must be given for the vegan currywurst - it tasted very good.

The soup was offered with bockwurst. Bockwurst was out. The soup was okay. But the price was not reduced despite notice. I don't feel like getting into legal disputes but I'll never go there again!

Unfortunately we weren't satisfied, the waitress was friendly, the chef was rude and condescending. When I asked if this was the herb dip I ordered, since all I could taste was garlic and there were no herbs in it, he said...I can add something to it...Price performance is not right, wedges dark and dry...dip not enjoyable and the salad plate was half a fruit plate...we won't eat there anymore...
