After dinner, I let my friend choose the place for drinks since she's the local. She took us to one…read moreof her favourite bars, Domkeller, which I'd classify as a dive bar. We dropped in on a Tuesday evening (around 9:15pm) and it was busy. There was a private event upstairs so the inside was packed. Luckily, we were able to snag a table outside beside the heaters. Nice touch with the blankets for you to use if you get cold. Only downside is lots of chain smokers but that's at most bars. There were a couple menus but we only were here for beers (€2,50 to €5,80 range). - Tannenzäpfle (€2,50 for 0,33L) - 2x Eifeler landbier (€2,50 for 0,30L) - 2x Bolten alt (€2,50 for 0,30L) Chill, laid back spot to grab a few beers with friends.

One of the coolest bars I've been to in long time! I looked up Domkeller on Yelp! and you all did…read morenot disappoint, I got just what I was looking for! Located (as the name suggests) right near the Dom, Domkeller offers good beer (German, Belgian as well as others) in a cozy atmosphere. For me, Domkeller embodies what a bar should be--a relaxed place where you can share a drink with friends and listen to good music (at just the right level) or have a good conversation. The music played here is fantastic and is an amazing mix that just about everyone will enjoy. They also regularly have concerts--I'm sure this place gets packed for those! Although a bit pricey (our bill came to around 12 with 2 beers and a snack) I think it's a nice enough place to enjoy a drink (skip the snack).

So they open up at 4PM, which is slightly early for the 5 O'clock drink, but hey I'm not local and…read morewhere else would you expect to find an Irishman...... I had the good fortune of being the one and only patron for the first hour and I sat and talked to the owner, Pieter. This place just has that authentic Irish feel to it. I actually walked a half a mile past another Irish pub that was closer to my hotel to get to this one. Maastricht does not have as much exposure to Yelp, so I actually had to look for a recommendation on another site. That is exactly why I am reviewing this restaurant. Yelpers need to know this place! I enjoyed a Smithwick's on tap. The beer was extremely cold, and the pint was a perfect pour! However, the biggest draw for me was the fish and chips. They are absolutely delicious! The fish is a rather large piece, done right in beer batter. It is also extremely flaky and I consider this a good thing! The pub is also known to be a good place to watch European football. The TVs are hooked up to sound and broadcast in HD. Whether you're looking for a good pint, good food or just to enjoy a football game, this is your place. And let Pieter know that Craig from Yelp sent you!

We've been in Irish Bars all over the world. This one is special. For one thing, it's clean. I mean *really* clean. It's really nicely furnished and decorated. The place has sort of an "upscale" ambiance, but retains the laid back feeling you expect from an Irish Pub. The food was terrific. We enjoyed large portions and the exceptional presentation. Prices were reasonable and the service was great. In short, this isn't your run of the mill Irish Pub. I absolutely recommend you check it out.

For the past six years I have made sure that…read moreone dinner was taken at Am Knipp. This is one of the last of a vanishing breed in Aachen, the neighborhood tavern that serves good and plentiful food. It is family run with one brother in the kitchen overseeing things and the other dispensing beer and other drinks at the bar like an octopus juggling clams. On the weekends the place is carefully organized chaos with locals three deep at the bar either drinking as an end goal or drinking while waiting for a table. In fact, on a recent Friday night I watched the restaurant equivalent of the old circus clown car, but in this case the patrons kept coming in and when you thought the place would be completely clogged with humanity another group of six hearty lads with a thirst would squeeze themselves through the door and into the scrum at the bar--a wonder to behold. The beer is fresh and the place is the very definition of "Gemütlichkeit", welcoming, cozy and high spirited. The interior of this old building is suggestive of everything historically German. Now as to the food, it is typical of the region, schnitzels, chicken, calf's liver, flammkuchen, steaks, etc. I normally get the schnitzel and they have both a version with cream and mushroom sauce and a creamed pepper sauce. Both are excellent and with the large mixed salad (really great) and the roasted potatoes, you need nothing else to keep you happy. With a glass of wine this came, on a recent visit, to around €23 all in and well worth it. Now, attention class and listen carefully, it is absolutely necessary to book a table at this extremely popular place. Those who don't, all visitors to Aachen (the locals know better) will leave very disappointed because they will be told by the hard working but frenetic waitstaff that they are full and that's it. It will no doubt seem abrupt but there is no time for explanations or being open to persuasion by the most charming tourist. If you follow this advice you will be rewarded by a very rich culinary and socially unique experience.

There are lots of restaurants in Aachen where you can eat outside, but I like this place because the outside area is in the back and so a little more private and quiet. They serve a fairly large selection of items and everything looked good. I tried a salad (Salad Provenciale) and the people I was with tried the Schnitzel and an eggplant dish. Everything was good and the prices were reasonable. If the weather is nice and you can sit outside I think that this is a great place to go. I'll definitely come back to try the pizza or a pasta dish.
