From the owner: Seit nun mehr 45 Jahren gibt es den Studentenclub Bärenzwinger in Dresden…read more Generationen von Studenten und Jugendlichen sind hindurchgegangen, haben getanzt und gelauscht, gefeiert und getrauert, getrunken und diskutiert sowie gelacht und geweint. Vieles hat sich im Laufe der Zeit getan. Strukturelle Veränderungen blieben nicht aus. Aus dem einstigen FDJ-Studentenclub ist einer der ältesten und schönsten Studentenclubs Dresdens geworden. Räume wurden neu erschlossen und mussten wieder abgegeben werden - 2006 wurde im Hof ein Schallschutzschirm installiert, um nun die schönste überdachte Open Air Location Dresdens zu sein. Die Schäden der Hochwasser 2002 und 2013 konnten dank zahlreicher Helfer und Spender behoben und schnell konnte der normale Betrieb wieder aufgenommen werden. Immer waren und sind es die Mitglieder des Studentenclub Bärenzwingers, die Veranstaltungen planen und durchführen und so das einzigartige Flair des Hauses prägen.

So I love this place. It is so romantic in the evenings. The candlelight and dark wood. Oh my,…read morejust beautiful. I enjoyed a dark beer and then ask for a recommendation for a liqueur. The lovely bartender brought us on that had hints of chocolate and it was so good. They have a nice outdoor patio too.

Cute little bar/restaurant a short walk across the river…read more The food was incredible! I found Red Rooster on trip advisor when I typed in "oldest bar in Dresden". We only went for a drink and to check it out. But when I went to the bathroom I walked by the kitchen and poked my head in, what the chef was cooking up looked and smelled incredible! All 5 of us ordered a dish. Every single entrée was amazing. Best food I've had in Germany. The chef came to our table to see if we liked everything, we asked him what was in the cucumber dill salad (it was amazing) and with his thick German accent he told us the ingredients and how to make it. This guy can cook! And he was really nice. I seriously want to go back this morning to eat breakfast but they don't open until 5pm! About the bar. Great vibe. Very cute and helpful bar tender, she was great, fast, we always had a beer in front of you! Only bad thing, I hate the smell of cigarette smoke and it's a smoking bar. I'd of eaten outside but it was cold! It's an awesome place if you want to smoke indoors. Great find in Dresden! A MUST for food not just a drink.

And this is an IRISH Pub. The owner is Irish and super friendly. There are Jam Sessions on Sunday evenings. There is tons of outdoor seating - in front and a big patio in the back. Downstairs is a spot to watch a match or play darts or have a private party. Great whiskey selection. Grateful to have walked by and find this spot!

This is one of the best Dresden style local German fare.

Gänsadieb in Dresden serves solid German fare in a calm, classy setting. The fried sausage with…read morepickled cabbage and mashed potatoes was well prepared -- sausage crisp and flavorful (8/10), cabbage nicely balanced, and potatoes as expected. The fried pork stuffed with ham and cheese, served with fries and roasted vegetables, was hearty and rated a 7/10. Service was polite and efficient. In typical German fashion, the staff mentioned it could take up to an hour - customary way of managing expectations for seating or serving. I found this to be good practice, and in our case the dishes arrived in about 15 minutes, Sunday crowd at 5 pm. The ambience was quiet and subdued, with a classy feel. Even though it's a bar, there were no groups, likely thanks to it being a Sunday night. Overall, Gänsadieb offers reliable German dishes with thoughtful service and a relaxed atmosphere, making it a good choice if you're looking for hearty food without the usual bar crowd.

A great little pub/restaurant in Dresden's Neustadt. Another review I read referred to it…read more(positively) as a holdover from the East German days, which I'd disagree with- it's modern enough, although the prices/attitude are both enjoyably low. I had the bierbraten and a couple of their house brews- all good! I sauntered in around 6pm and didn't have trouble getting a seat, although it started getting more crowded around 7-8pm. Luckily it looked like table sharing was a common occurrence.
