Spezialkeller - Bamberg

We drove here so no idea how long it would take to walk to. Three are spaces for around 10 cars, with more parking on the street down the hill. It was literally empty when we went in the afternoon but started to fill up later. Very good beer, lovely beer garden with a small sand pit for the kids. Lovely views of the town, it must be great on a summer day. Well worth a visit. The inside looks very old and charming.

A healthy hike up several hills to get you to the top, overlooking the spires of Bamberg. Only outdoor seating in a camp like atmosphere with stringy lights and loud music. Food is typical German fare. We all ordered the chicken which was only so-so. Rauchbier was excellent. Service was slow, as you have to flag down the waitresses as they fly by. A real experience, not to be missed.

After a swim in the Regnitz we took the ferry and climbed up to this lovely biergarden with a gorgeous view over Bamberg and the hills. Cool delicious beer and friendly service. We nabbed a decent table but many had called ahead to reserve the tables with the best views.

Wonderful view of the spires of Bamberg.. the food is reasonably priced and excellent. We were served by a lovely lady waitress who went out of her way to make us feel welcome. The atmosphere on a Friday night was bustling and friendly. The Spezial rauchbier served here is better kept than that served in the brewery itself!! All in all an enjoyable visit and worth the walk uphill!!

Going there regularly, for me the nicest Bierkeller in Bamberg. Really enjoy the Rauchbier there as well as the Schnitzel. Having lived in Franconia for long enough now, I even appreciate the - at first - grumpy seeming attitude of the staff, which you can easily get by with warm smile. By the way, in the self-service area you can even bring your own food, if you order drinks.
