One of my favorite places to eat in Erfurt. That's great that you can order either american or german food there. The portions are enourmous, but you can ask for a half of the dish and they will eagerly do it for you! Suitable for vegetarians as well. The service is not super perfect, it's not a restaurant, but quite okay, none of the waiters were ever rude to me, they normally smile to you and behave really friendly, so you're in a good mood for the rest of the day. The location of it is pretty close to the city centre. They have a nice summer terrace and a special room for smoking.

We visited on a sunny day and enjoyed sitting outside in the little square people watching over lunch and beers. Decent selection of beers and range of traditional thuringen cuisine... We went for goulash and rouladen with klose, all pretty tasty but nothing particularly special, just good hearty fayre and what we were expecting.

Facing the train station and located in the building where former West_german chancellor Willy Brandt held a historic meeting and addressed a chanting crowd, the Willy B. had over-life size murals of the socialist ex-mayor of Berlin. Now it is an upscale night life bar with wide-screen TV's tuned to the lates UEFA game. They have a very large selection of drinks and offer a dinner menu. We settled for the traditional Thuringian Bratwurst and it was properly grilled, albeit three times as expensive as the same product at a stand around the corner. We also had a bowl of an excellent mushroom cream soup.The service was good, the ambience modern metal and glass. Amazingly, they do NOT accept credit cards (other than a EC bank card), a disagreeable inconvenience.

Inhouse Grill
Reviewed By coffeebean11
A great, straightforward concept in old-fashioned settings. Faust Food is a sensibly-priced Thuringian grill, with a few tasty digressions from trad menus. Aside from succulent, tender, flavoursome piggy treats, we liked the thoughtful presentation, light hand with side dishes and quality. The potato bread was just right, likewise a big, big kartoffel puffer.The rustic medieval barn it inhabits is an ideal backdrop for the food. Strictly casual, great for friends with hearty appetites.

The atmospheare was great. The waiters and waitresses had cool uniforms. The way they served dishes was also spectacular. The food was delicious. However, there was very little space between the tables in the lower dining room (designed as a dungeon) which could make "traffic" between customers and waiters difficult.

It was pretty much past lunch when we found Feuerkugel. There were only a few tables occupied inside They served us great food from this region nicely garnished. Our waiter was very helpful not only with our menu choices, but also told us where we could have a great view of the nearby Merchant's Bridge.

My husband and I have enjoyed a lovely meal with my mother here after a day of sightseeing. The restaurant is cozy and welcoming. We called ahead and got one of the last tables so if you want to avoid disappointment book in advance. The menu offers a good variety of locally sourced specialties.
