Ratskeller Kiel

It was a good dinner. Of course knowing what the place is, do not expect sofisticated dishes or an interesting wine list. But for tradiitonal German food and good local bier it is defintely a good option. Friendly staff and nice location. Good for a group dinner, probably not so good for a intimate one.

What a great meal we both had schnitzel which was enormous with salad and a large ppl late of chips. Great service and a price that was very reasonable considering the location, it would have cost a lot more in the UK.

Was really looking for a good German meal and the hotel recommended this place. Located an easy walk from all over town, I was impressed by the traditional interior. The group of old men “regulars” playing cards was a nice touch. We had a great...More

Served so much food we could still be eating left overs.Nice outside ambiance, waiter had a great sense of humor trying to serve two very silly Americans, us.Was recommended to me and I am so pleased we tried this spot. Next visit to Kiel I will eat there again.

The best part about Ratskeller Kiel in the sleepy capital of Schleswig-Holstein: this restaurant is open until 10 pm. Yes, it's true. While most other places will be closed (except McDonalds) you will get a decent meal here. There are North German specialities such as Sauerfleisch and fried potatoes (cold jellified pork in mayo-like sauce) and Matjes (pickled herring in yogurt dressing). And butter pan-fried sole fish. Also regular items like schnitzel, turkey medallions and fries if North German food is not your liking.
