We wanted to stop there today for food and drinks after a hike. It was busy as it was a public holiday. After we got a seat - unfortunately the table was still a bit dirty from the previous food - we wanted to order. Of course that took a while, which is completely normal on a day like this. The waitress came and before we could order something to drink we were greeted completely clumsily and inappropriately with the words:If you want food then you have to wait 30-40 minutes, you already know that, right? Not that they'll make fun of me if it takes longer!Sorry, but that doesn't work at all. We then had a drink and went somewhere else to eat! If that had been said normally then it wouldn't have been a problem for us, but not like that. The food looked good what other guests had.

Went there again yesterday for coffee and cake after a long walk.Location is very nice.Cake was very tasty although the uncooled cake counter takes a lot of getting used to.Unfortunately the service is very unfriendly.The waiting times just to order something are unreasonably long and you also have to wait a long time for food, coffee and cake.It's also sad that the order doesn't arrive completely despite taking a long time and you only receive the coffee, for example, after you've eaten the cake.Conclusion:I was very disappointed with my visit to the restaurant yesterday.Especially since I was used to completely different things from previous visits.What a shame!!!!

We only rate the restaurant:Despite having a reservation, we had to wait about 1.5 hours for the food. Unfortunately, when it came it was anything but good. The pork knuckle looked gray and wasn't crispy. Likewise the lumberjack steak, which tasted bitter. Overall, everything was carelessly prepared and it tasted terrible.I would like to mention positively that the staff understood the criticism, we didn't pay for everything and we got a latte macchiato as compensation (which unfortunately also looked gray and was tasteless). The furnishings were also old and very messy.Unfortunately no recommendation.

We went there for coffee and cake. There were 3 dogs lying around in the bar with their food bowls. Cake plates were full of hair. Coffee cup was dirty. The cake sat uncooled and without a sneeze guard on the side. We were very disappointed.

Waited about 2 hours for a rather mediocre meal. Fries were cold. Riesling warm. Cordon Blue dry. Roast roast rather well done than medium. Service was sometimes very unfriendly and overwhelmed……. Too bad

It's a shame that people who don't even want to work 8 hours judge and complain about others who are still keeping the state alive, unfortunately there will soon be no more country inns😪😪

I have been a highly satisfied weekly regular here for 30 years!I read what in most cases so-called “local guides” think they have to say about gastronomic establishments. Interestingly, they hide behind abbreviations and therefore want to remain nameless and anonymous:- I wasn't allowed to go to the toilet on Tuesday, the rest day...?- I had to (!) screw in a light bulb myself... (In the Albengel there are at least 70 LEDs burning inside, i.e. this guest was at the mercy of the darkness)- great! - Dogs are welcome - but then the dog piles are annoying again (they are all from the landlord, who doesn't let anyone go to the toilet on the day of rest...) Worse still: the dogs are also fed...Conclusion: I'm not surprised that every second country inn is currently... closes in order to have plenty of time to write such profound reviews after every bite, which unfortunately go unchecked by Google and other mediabe printed.

The landlord is very unfriendly, we wanted to stop there today, we knew that Tuesdays might be a day of rest there. So far everything was fine, but a friend had to go to the toilet. An employee allowed this.However, after using the toilet, the innkeeper asked the friend what she thought about using the toilet; today was a day of rest and using the toilet cost 50 cents. When the innkeeper replied that the use of the toilet had been approved, he replied that he was the boss here and he had not approved it. We then paid 1 euro because there were no 50 cents and left the building.We've been there several times, including with larger groups, but we won't be going there again. Such behavior is unacceptable.

Quietly secluded. Rustic facilities, unfortunately a bit dirty.Our lightbulb was broken and at times half the restaurant was dark after we were allowed to change the defective lightbulb ourselves (gastronomy experience for amateur do-it-yourselfers). The food was rather mediocre. Onion roast was well done (ordered medium). Unfortunately they don't seem to have any spices in the kitchen either. The salad also tasted very modest.

Food was good, but horrible, outdated atmosphere. Kitschy decorations and the dogs are fed in the middle of the inn.

Well, it's not very clean right now, the floor is greasy, there's a lot of dust on the lamps, window sills, there's a carpet in the men's toilet, so I don't want to know if it's going to run away any time soon. Food has a lot of room to rise, I suspect that it is pre-cooked and then finished cooking or warming up in the deep fryer. During the night I woke up because there was a smell of chips in the bedroom, then I realized that my clothes were where I was wearing, like in the chip shop, that's a no go. I'm sorry. The location is greatIt would be a great restaurant if you made more of it, the place would be full every day.Staff is very friendly and on point.Food prices are cheap.

**Restaurant review: A visit to the Swabian country inn – pure idyll and culinary enjoyment**In the heart of the Swabian landscape lies a true insider tip for connoisseurs and nature lovers: the Swabian country inn. As soon as you arrive, you are greeted by the idyllic surroundings - the inn is in a fantastic location, surrounded by meadows and rolling hills. A particularly beautiful beer garden invites you to enjoy nature to the fullest.The highlight for animal lovers is certainly the many animal residents: horses, sheep, donkeys and even a friendly dog greet the guests. Families with children in particular will get their money's worth here, as the animals create a warm, inviting atmosphere.The inn also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine. The menu is excellently put together and offers a wonderful selection of Swabian classics that are prepared with a lot of love and skill. From tender onion roast to homemade Maultaschen – every dish impresses with its freshness and taste. The use of regional ingredients is particularly impressive, giving the dishes a special authenticity.The service also leaves nothing to be desired. The waitresses are attentive, courteous and always friendly and warm. You feel welcome and well looked after from the first moment.The interior of the inn completes the overall picture. The interior is lovingly designed, with many small details that underline the rural charm and give the room a homely atmosphere.A special plus point is the extremely lovable owner, who personally looks after the well-being of the guests and always has a friendly word or smile ready. It's exactly little things like this that make your stay special.Another practical detail: There are enough parking spaces directly in front of the house for everyone who arrives by car.Conclusion: The Swabian country inn is not only a delight for the palate, but also a place to feel good and relax. Anyone who appreciates good food, beautiful surroundings and warm service should definitely not miss a visit here.

Friendly and always attentive service. Regional products are the focus of Albengel cuisine.When the weather is nice, the lovingly designed beer garden is a real highlight.Dogs are always welcome.The owner gives you the feeling that you have come as a guest and that you can come back next time as a friend.This is how you imagine genuine Swabian hospitality.

Nice to look at from the outside - but the food is a disappointment. Today I ordered pork medallions with spaetzle. I won't soon forget such a loveless meal. After 45 minutes I got a meager 2 spoonfuls of extremely pale spaetzle lukewarm, swimming in sauce, served with 2 small, tender medallions, without a leaf of lettuce or a hint of dressing. The cash register had no change,and the chef (or the man who thought he was) was loudly annoyed in the restaurant that they hadn't brought anything from the cellar and bumped into me at the checkout. Conclusion: that doesn't work at all...Even a discount campaign no longer helps, only escape. Too bad.
