Pork knuckles - Yum! Almost like smoked ham, but with the skin on and fried to a crispy crunch!…read more I mentioned to my German friend that I wanted to try the traditional pork knuckle in Hannover during my visit, and this is where she took me. Didn't disappoint! Our party of 4 ordered various dishes... I did the pork knuckle, 2 types of schnitzels, and steak ... and all were A-okay! Portions were on the larger side, and the prices seemed to be above average, but all everything tasted good! They also make craft beer, and the one I tried was A-okay! Not the most heart friendly meal, but what the heck, I don't visit Germany every month! Once is 30 years must be okay! ;) Lots of seating inside, and covered tables outside. We ate our lunch during the weekday and we could just walk up without any reservations. So a nice (very filling) experience for me!

Ok but overpriced. Much better biergarten experiences in Hannover for half the cost. Beer was ok.read more

I preferred the cold options including the little meatballs (although they were served warm) on the starters table. I also enjoyed the scalloped potatoes. And the cold sliced roasted pork. The in-house brews were good. I sampled both a light and dark beer and preferred the dark.

As I've been eating regularly at Kaiser's for approximately 25 years my review might be a bit bias…read morebut considering most of the other reviews on here my opionion seems to be legit. Like every other larger city of the western world Hannover has a wide variety of hip and modern food and beverage concepts to offer. Every now and again I like to settle for the traditional simplistic approach of regional dishes that can be found at the Gaststätte Kaisers in the Nordstadt. Besides the, in my opinion, best curry wurst (a large sausage with curry sauce and fries) in the northan hemisphere and really good schnitzel with a variety of sauces to choose from, steak and more delicious dishes the seasonal menus vary from asparagus specialities in autum to chanterelles in Summer and kale with smoked sausages in winter are also worth a try. The Kaiser's combines the best of two worlds combining the vibe and setting of a traditional north German pub, with british influences (huge whiskey selection, fish and chips with malt vinegar...) and a traditional German kitchen without beeing to fancy nor shabby. The place is very lively and the service is very friendly and flexible if you like to modify your orders, which I love doing.
