The concept is easy enough - turn left if you want to enter the restaurant, turn right to enter the…read morebar. Thankfully, though, you can also eat in the right part, and drink in the left! So why divide it in the first place then? The answer can be found in the atmosphere: although this is one big location, and only recently reopened, the separation has always been in place. On the right hand side you have a loft-style room, with a bar that is set like an island into the middle of the room. You can sit at the bar itself, or at the few tables that are scattered around it. You have barkeepers serving you your favourite drinks, and yes, you can also order your food from the restaurant side. But this is essentially a bar. On the other side, you have a proper sit-down restaurant. They serve burgers, currywurst (German curry sausage...kinda) and a few other things, and pretty decent sweet potato chips (fries). Of course you can also order drinks here, but the idea is that you have the atmosphere of a proper restaurant, with a waiter serving you at your table, etc. So my recommendation for this place is the following: start on the left, make sure you get some decent food in first (as a foundation for what is to come), then change to the right, and get that booze flowing. Bottom line: * Restaurant and bar in one location... *...divided over two rooms * Perfect for a long night out... *...food first... *...drinks afterwards. * Fantastic!

Glüxrausch - or Gluexrausch - the former "Papa Joe´s" place is now a bar with Burger and Wraps,…read moreCocktails and much more. Easy to understand concept: wanna eat - go left, wanna drink - go right and down the stairs. Glüxrausch is located in the middle of the old town of Erlangen in a lovely renovated Building from the 1700s with renovated old ceilings. Up- and downsides: Downsides: The restrooms have seen better times and this stuff is simply bad. Bad smell, not very clean, really a mess. In my opinion. Upsides: The Burgers we had were excellent. On Wednesday in winter they had some special "Raclette" burgers where you could melt cheese on a small oven and then pour it over your Burger. Tasty. Really. Hint: go for the Brioche Buns instead of the standard..... Waiter service was quick and really polite. We sat in the middle of the restaurant on high chairs - that is something I would not repeat, and instead try to get a table near one of the walls with proper seating. All in all a 3-4 with a tendency to 4. Food first, Drinks later. Move from left to right. Would I come here again? Clear: YESSSSSSS!

When walking around Erlangen one evening, I found Ciro and having noted it from seeing it on my…read moreYelp phone app earlier decided to give them a try. From the outside looking in that night, I could see it it was an inviting and appealing place so I had a feeling my instincts would be right on this one. Walking in, I would designate this place more as a lounge/cocktail bar than a pure cafe, but it has definite characteristics of all of those things. Deep red and wood tones, a black piano and other curiosities decorating the cafe, I like the look. Ciro also has various places to relax in that they have a corner "comfy area" or the bar or the tables in the back corner. All in all, a very chill place to enjoy a drink or something light to eat. The staff and owner were very pleasant and engaged in conversation while making sure I was taken care of, a great plus in this type of atmosphere. Ciro has quite an extensive menu of mixed drinks, cocktails, liquors, beers, etc. to choose from, so many choices! It has a small book of drinks and libation selections, and there is something for everyone to enjoy at Ciro. I settled on a whiskey sour (very good) and then had a beer with my sandwich I ordered. The sandwich was HUGE and very satisfying, thumbs up. I relaxed after my meal and enjoyed the cafe atmosphere while finishing my drink. Bottom line: Very relaxing and pleasing lounge/cafe/bar atmosphere in Erlangen. Great to get a drink and chill out for a while or get a small bite to eat. Extensive drink menu selection and very positive staff interactions. I like this place, and recommend trying them out if in Erlangen.

Shake it, shake it, baby!…read more One of the best places if you had enough of all the beer-serving pubs and breweries and beer gardens around town - they serve fantastic cocktails here! I usually don't like cocktails with alcohol, so I was pleasantly surprised when I opened up the menu and there were two pages full of non-alcoholic but not less awesome sounding cocktails! They serve everything from the classics to more exotic drinks, cocktails, longdrinks, flips (egg in a drink? Seriously, this is so disgusting!!) and many more... Our waitress was absolutely friendly, the atmosphere is relaxed and thankfully it's not as loud and crowded as in other places around town! Oh and you always get crisps to munch on while waiting for your cocktails! And all that for decent prices! Bottom line: * fantastic cocktails of ALL sorts! * I am sure they also have your favourite! * prices are OK, location is great * great for a relaxed night out! :)

For the After Business Dinner or a party it is possible to have more privacy on the second floor. Reservation and negotiation of the menu aforehand is required, however. Cocktails in this bar are best in town. If you are not sure which one to choose, ask the waitress resp. the waiter. They help you out with suggestions in case you can't decide :) Busy location on the weekends, so it is always good to make a reservation. I love this place, try it out and get your own insights! :)

I've always been satisfied with the service, but there's one exception: we made a reservation for the bar and got seats in the restaurant. Would not have been a problem to change the seats, but - for unknown reasons - the service staff got very angry and unfriendly at this time. Nevertheless I would recommend it, I go there mostly for drinking cocktails because they are very good.

Smack in the city centre, this establishment has been serving thirsty (and hungry) customers for…read moreyears now. I love this place for its cocktails - they have a huge variety, a lot of them are non-alcoholic as well (nice for a change) and all of them really yummy. The staff is really helpful and patient, and if you have any particular wishes, they are usually happy to accommodate them. Some of the drinks might be a bit unusual at first, but give them a try - I for one absolutely love their "Vanilla Coke"!! I haven't tried the food yet, but apparently that isn't too bad either. But a fantastic place usually comes with some drawbacks and so does this one: Once this place is crowded, the service is struggling to keep up. It might take a bit longer until you can order your drinks, and just as long until you get them. And the level of noise is also quite high (if the bar is packed). But that doesn't keep me from returning here again and again! =) Bottom line: * Great location * Fantastic drinks (try the Vanilla Coke, no kidding!) * Perfect when it's empty... * ...a tad less perfect when it's full! * But all in all it's a brilliant place for a night out!
