I made the mistake of pulling in here while driving between Frankfurt and Düsseldorf as my…read moretraveling companion was hungry and complaining bitterly about it. It looks like a relatively clean and normal rest stop, so I couldn't imagine anything being amiss about it and we went ahead and each ordered lunch - a currywurst for me and a regular wurst for him. First off - everything is extra. Including a piece of hard (nearly stale) bread to go with the wurst. Okay, fine - it's a rest stop, and they'll get you where you can. Still, sodas are incredibly expensive, as is bottled water. Far worse is the quality of the food. My currywurst was incredibly bland, and really had no redeeming quality besides sating hunger. My friend though, had a far worse time of it. Despite complaining of the bread and the wurst, hunger won out and he wolfed the meal down. Unfortunately, a few hours later (fortunately, after our road trip was over) I got a text saying that he had gotten food poisoning and was sick all night. Avoid this rest stop at all costs. Eat something before you get on the A3, or pack a sandwich and pull off somewhere to have a picnic, or just deal with the hunger. Stopping here for a bite will only lead to a bad end.

This restaurant is what Americans think German should look like. Staff was friendly but not…read moreattentive. Food was good but overall only the view was unforgettable. Bier garden next to a noisy road. We'll return but this doesn't make the frequent list for us.
