Zum Spiessgesellen

Zum Spiessgesellen is just waiting to be discovered by hungry visitors in the vaulted cellar of the old Nuremberg Rathaus. This restaurant allows diners to enjoy regional cuisine in a laid-back setting. Zum Spiessgesellen is well-known for its medieval atmosphere, rustic dishes and historical concept.

Dining

Without a shadow of doubt, Nuremberg’s most famous food export is the Nürnberger Rostbratwurst. No bigger than your finger, you can order 6, 8, 10 or 12 of these sausages, which are in most cases served with sauerkraut or potato salad. If you’re feeling a bit peckish in between meals, why not try a “3 im Weggla” (3 sausages in a roll), which is generally garnished with mustard. Or if you’re in the mood for a hearty meal, how about sampling the delights on Franconian menus, which traditionally include “Schäuferle mit Kloss und Soss” (roasted pork shoulder with dumplings and gravy) or Sauerbraten (marinated beef). You can’t come to Nuremberg and not try the local delicacies!
