Bavarian style restaurant located in a church square so very quiet location
Eating classic German, I had very tender pork loin while my husband opted for a classic typical sausage accompanied by sauerkraut and potatoes, even the good one.
Great beer, from a famous Bavarian brewery but the sore note is that the menu is priceless so you do not know the cost of the various dishes.
The price is still average

We discovered the restaurant when my husband was in hospital and we were delighted. A guest house in the truest sense of the word! The excellent food, the friendly, warm atmosphere and the attentive service make us feel like we are welcome here as guests. We would love to come back!

We were there by chance today. Googled for good restaurants. Then we found you. Even though we didn't have a reservation, you still welcomed us warmly. Great team, amazing food, very cozy, you rarely find something like that. Top. We'll be back in 2 weeks because we have to pick up the car we bought in Erlangen.. full marks for you..

The food was good, but if you want your drink with ice cubes on warm days, you have to fight for every ice cube. The waiter was unfriendly, a know-it-all and arrogant. If we hadn't been in a group, I would have got up and left. Totally impossible! Ice cubes cost a fortune!

We can't actually review the food or drinks because they refused to serve us. The Website says open until four. We arrived at three and the bar staff were sitting outside and couldn't be bothered to work any more.

Super friendly and quick service.
Sensational food.
Great beer.
We have already reserved a table for the day after next. If you are looking for an authentic atmosphere, good beer and great food, this is the place for you. Even the schnapps with the host after 2 beers was good. A fixed part of our next stay.

The food was delicious. I waited around 30 mins for the main course (lunchtime 12:30 rush hour might be the issue of it).
But over all very good!

As most people on here I visited the Alter Simpl, guided by Trip Advisor. What I found was a warm and cozy place with genuinely charming ambiance. Although I was alone, I was attended immediately and my order can promptly. I ordered the Roasted Pork Shoulder and was great. I will return.

The interior of this place was really neat and the beer and food was good as well. Staff friendly. I had the grilled pork platter. Nothing out if this world, but above average.

Book in advance. Have you booked yet? It’s so good you’ll have to book. Got the message yet? Wear stretchy trousers as it’s seriously yummy Bavarian food and it’s all good. Schnitzel and dumplings is to die for. No idea about the puddings - never had space left!!

I was regular guest 5 years ago each time visiting Erlagen ( 3-4 times annually ) I came back after long time and noticed that atmosphere and service remain on same level but quality of food went down noticeable .

An "average experience, a decent evening, sat outside, we were served quickly, the food was good. I struggle sometimes with the brashness and rudeness of the waiters around Erlangen and this was no better than anywhere else but yes, I will return sometime.

This restaurant has a great selection of beers, wines, and of course German cuisine. The schnitzel is fantastic and they also have very good Spätzle. The dishes come with tasty sides as well. The service is pretty good, but it can take some effort to get the waiter's attention. They do have English menus available.

Service was prompt and setting is great but unfortunately that’s where it ended for my experience.
I will admit my idea of a pork knuckle and crackling is possibly not Franconian. I heard great reviews and eagerly anticipated my meal here but unfortunately my expectations were far from met.
My expectations were lovely soft pork with great crackling and this was far from my expectations. Do yourself a favour and order something else I was very disappointed.

Hello Darren,
First of all I am really sorry, that you didn’t get what you expected.
But your ranking is really totally unfair!!!
You ordered a cooked pork knuckle, which is a really specialty from the Berlin area.
It is totally tender, red meat and has a really soft fat skin.
That’s what you ordered und what you got.
What you maybe wanted was a „schäufele „, which is a roasted pork shoulder, a franconian specialty, really tender but roasted meat, with a crackling skin.
This we offer just for lunch on Thursday and Saturday.
So again we are sorry, but maybe the next time you order, you better should inform yourself about the food you want and a least you can ask a waiter.
You may not know, but ranking is a serious thing, so you better think twice before making such comments.
