We ate in the cellar and that was a very interesting experience. First, we started off with some…read moreGerman beer. I had the IPA that was on the specials card and felt it was not very hoppy. Next I ordered one of their house beers and it was much better. For dinner, my wife and I had one of their schnitzels and it was just ok. Our waitress was really rushing us and she spilled a half glass our beer on one of our coats. The only thing good about this evening was the atmosphere. We loved the cellar.

We ran from a rainstorm into the arms of the Brauberger. We were led into the cellar and given two…read morebig beers to warm up with. We ordered a traditional German dish with potatoes with cheese egg and bacon, and a turkey schnitzel with croquettes. Both are heavy meals and we might have been ok with one, but ended up eating most of both. We were on a biking tour and apparently needed the calories!! Haha. The service was excellent and beer good and simple, they only had one choice! But it can be mixed with a variety of juices or sodas for other options. The place was packed with plenty of Germans, so that has to be a good sign as well.

We recently visited Schumachers for the first time in years to use a gift certificate we had…read morereceived. It was exactly as I remembered. The food was good, but nothing special. I expected more for the price. The service was very attentive, but almost to a fault. Every couple minutes we were interrupted. We sat upstairs, where there are four small tables crowded together in a tiny space. All the tables were occupied and we felt very observed, aware that everyone in the tiny room could hear our every word. It was uncomfortable. Our evening ended on a particularly sour note when we asked for the check and handed over our gift certificate. A few minutes later, we were smugly informed that the gift certificate -- which we received during COVID and did not include an expiration date -- had expired and the restaurant refused to accept it. Ugh. Needless to say, we will not be going back to Schlumachers.

The food is yummy - north German, the Bier is great, portions are good, the ambiance is very Old World and take all the time you want to eat. The outside seating in the summer is nice. The wait staff speaks mostly German, so there will be some menu pointing. The price you pay is great for the quality of the food. Like most places in Lubeck, they take card, but sometime the EC card readers are flakey if you are in from the US or Canada, so take case has well. Euros. Have a German colleague call ahead and reserve if weekend or summer evening. maybe OK for groups, if someone calls ahead, but I prefer for 2-5 people. They are close to the Dom, off the tourist track, but easy walking distance from the gate or the Rathouse. Really, don't go to the Block House or a chain - you are in a medieval city, eat local! Waze and yelp get the location wrong (as of 12/2023), it is around the corned for the pinned location.
