Brauerei Gasthof Mager - Pottenstein

This restaurant is a rarity in the sense that they offer their own beer (I'd recommend the "Helles" and not so much the all too light in taste "Dunkles"). The dishes are quite normal Franconian ones, so nothing new there. We had the "Haxe", which was excellent, and "Spanferkelrolle" which was overcooked and dry. So I would recommend selecting dishes that get better with longer cooking time (e.g., Haxe, Schäuferle) or dishes that are made right before serving (e.g., Schnitzel). Something in between may be overcooked, as the earlier reviews also mention. Still, the Haxe here was the best dish I ate in Pottenstein during our stay. And the Helles beer is very drinkable after a long hike.

Schlechtes verbranntes essen.netter Kellner. unmögliche Chefin.ungepflegte Ambiente und das hauseigene Bier ist.....der Hirschbraten war versalzen, verbrannt, vermutlich durch die Mikrowelle. nach Beschwerde beim Kellner, kein Wort von der Chefin zu dieser Reklamation, was den Kellner sichtlich unangenehm war.bitte diesen Ort meiden

Cibo buono e la birra della casa interessante. Il posto è accogliente e caldo. Ha dato l'impressione di essere frequentato dai residenti.

We were here in the low season so no issues with the service. I loved the potato salad and my husbands roast pork serving was huge. They were very generous with the wine serving and the food was served very quickly. No English translation on the menu, but that is expected in a German tourist spot.

The atmosphere here was pleasant we were in town for a specific event and knew things were going to fill fast. Ordered our meals and were served within minutes. I think the schnitzel took the longest. Everyone seemed to enjoy their beers and food.
