Café Drachenhaus - Potsdam

The Dragon House is a magical setting, and a great place to make memories under starry blue ceilings. Sit down, slow down, and leave room for dessert and coffee!

We found this restaurant by chance strolling from the Orangerieschloss to the Neues Palais in Potsdam, and just in time. It started raining heavily just moments after we went in. The restaurant is very beautiful both inside and out, and we were immediately seated and...offered drinks by a very pleasant waiter. Service was very fast and as the waiter saw we were struggling with the menu, he offered us one in English. I ordered a very German dish of schnitzel with a lukewarm potato salad which was extraordinarily good, and my son had the Boeuf Stroganoff, which he said was delicious. We really enjoyed the setting, atmosphere and service at this restaurant and would certainly recommend it.

Fresh, creative and healthy food, surrounded by the Sanssouci Park. The service was quick and friendly, the price was reasonable.

Closing an hour earlier than advertised (at instead of is considered acceptable here, but some could call that false advertising and disregard towards customers

Friends took us to visit San.Souci Park in Potsdam and we stopped at the Drachenhaus for lunch. I am unable to comment on the standard of food and service we didn’t stay to find out! The appalling standard of customer service was to blame....Despite plenty of empty tables they were unable to provide a table for six people for lunch. We suggested pushing two tables together to accommodate us but that was a”push” too far. The answer was an emphatic no. We would have to have two separate tables or nothing. Our German host remonstrated with the waiter but the waiter was adamant, we couldn’t all sit together for lunch. The final insult when our friend informed the waiter that we were the customers was the response “and I am the Kaiser”. At this point we voted with our feet and left with our money still in our wallets. Great customer service. What!!
