If you leave it long enough you start loving places for their averageness. Actually, unassuming…read moretraditional German pubs like this have become a rarity ... Absolutely everything about this place is a bit naff, starting with the name which implies a romantic hideaway in the mountains. Instead it is a pub housed in an ugly bungalow in the suburbs of a small town in Lower Saxony. I didn't grow up around here but was still overcome by a sense of nostalgia - a regular gave me a funny look when I took that photo of a cigarette machine, these have long disappeared from British establishments. My sister has been coming here ever since she went to the nearby university. But students, old and young, make up only part of the clientele. The place was packed with diners of all ages on a Saturday night - Suedklause is now at least twice as big as in the old days, having taken over the unit next door. The decor hasn't been updated much since the 70's and neither has the menu, hence the many comments on tinned salads (there's a long list of German language reviews) which used to be acceptable accompaniments to your favourite meat dish back then. I actually had no idea that what makes a proper "currywurst" is not just the typical curry sauce but the fact that the sausage itself is deep fried rather than simply fried or grilled. The portions are massive and the fries the best I have had in ages. I rolled home fat and happy. I don't think they have many vegetarian options on the menu, but that is hardly the point. People come here for guilty pleasures of deep fried feel good food. Apparently the chicken dinners are legendary.

Waren vor einigen Tagen da. Service sehr nett, essen war,…read morenaja, ok. Leider sind einige unserer Steaks nicht auf den Punkt gegart, wie gewünscht wurde. Jeder hatte die selbe garstige bekommen, rosa/ durch. Zurückgegeben hab ich nicht, sonst müsste ich wieder ewig warten. Musste schon ne knappe Stunde warten. hatte schon Hunger, nochmals wollte ich nicht. Leider war das Essen auch noch kalt, die Butter war auf dem Fleisch nicht geschmolzen. Alles war kalt. Nicht nur bei meinem Teller. Einige Teller standen wohl in der Küche ewig herum, bis die an den Tisch kamen, so waren die. Evtl müsste ich nächste mal was anderes bestellen. :( Salatportion fällt leider etwas zu klein aus, im Vergleich zu den anderen malen, die ich bestellt hatte. Außerdem schmeckten die Bohnen etwas säuerlicher. Bratkartoffeln waren diesmal auch trocken und die Speckstücke waren dunkel und hart. Wohl kein guter Tag gewesen. Getränke Karte umfangreich. Die kamen auch recht schnell. Die Hälfte der Gäste hatte das Essen geschmeckt, den anderen waren nicht so begeistert. Leider diesmal von der hahnenburg sehr enttäuscht :(( sonst sind wir sehr gerne dort ( die Woche davor bei blockhouse war besser gewesen)/ aber der Service war da etwas schlechter) Hoffe das nächste Mal klappt's besser Soviel Pech kann man nicht haben

The best Dry Rubbed Ribs in the World! Yes I said it, no other place that I've tried ever beat This…read moreBiergarten's Ribs. Theres not too many places that I obssess about, but when it does, it sticks and I salivate just thinking about the ribs at this Bier Garten.... it is that good. When I used to live in Hannover, I would come here when its Biergarten season with friends and we'd share tubs of Ribs, salad, and German Bier. This biergarten wont dissapoint. It is very spacious, and very laid back atmosphere. I gave this place 5 not based on a one time visit, but a multiple time visit, over a course of several years. Will post up pictures when I find them... When you are in Hannover, you must come here if they are open :)

Great atmosphere, friendly service. Gyros are fantastic and staff is very helpful. Ccread more
