Gasthof Zum Kaiser Friedrich - Bremen

Authentic German food and atmosphere. Simple home style food in an engaging atmosphere with friendly service. The tables around us were enjoying card games, beer, and in one case a pipe - if you hate the smell of smoke be advised! The food presentation is lacking but most of the dishes we ordered were good. The pork, potato, and egg dish was the favorite for our group with the breaded and pan fried fish coming in second. Very good beer and wine.

This restaurant is in the area called Schnoor, the oldest part of Bremen. We had lunch here and we were lucky as the weather was great and so we could eat outside. Small tables with red and white square tablecloths. There is an easy lunch menu (have not looked at the main menu) with different options and good prices. We went for the traditional currywursts and beer which was good (we decided to re-order!) other dishes on other tables looked good if you need more food. Staff was nice and the atmosphere good.

Scholle and LaabskausCozy table (the place has several small rooms)Good selection of beersWe were there with a group of four and each one of us had a main course, we shared a starter (mainly fish)Most guests are locals, card-playing is allowed which enhances the "Northern German atmosphere"

This is a very small restaurant so if you plan a visit you must book at least one or two weeks in advance. This is a very typical german "Gasthof" with a lot of atmosphere.The food is excellent. Nicely cooked and very fresh. The service is good and familiar.If you like german beer the can offer a couple of different draught beers.Prices are reasonable and you leave very satisfied after haven had dinner here.We very much recommend this place.

If you come to Bremen and want to eat traditional food, this is the place to go. Eat Labskaus, Matjes, Scholle, Gruenkohl and many other local dishes, prepared and cooked close to perfection by owner und chef Uwe Richter who worked in the pantry of a ship for many years before he became owner of the fabulous Kaiser Friedrich. Enjoy. Reservation recommended!
