Beyond the ultra-convenient location, this pub offers warm hospitality, an extensive drink menu (including zero-proof beers for your N/A pub pleasure), and good prices. It was easy to find vegan and vegetarian options. I was torn between the veggie burger and the vegan shepherds pie, until a shepherd's pie went by on its way to another table, and I was sold. The vegan shepherd's pie is a hearty dish but is not heavy. Made with the classic savory pie veggies (carrots, peas, and onions), this pie is full of flavor. Lentils stand in for the lamb, and there's a bit of tanginess (from something tomatoey, I think). A neutral, pure-white layer of starchy goodness helps ensure that you're able to get every last bit of flavor, and a layer of toasted vegan cheese adds crunch. It was super-satisfying, and I was sad that I couldn't finish it (like I said, generous portions--don't eat a late lunch!). I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.

The best deal in Eindhoven!…read more Big portions of good tasting food at a decent price. That is pretty much impossible to come by in Holland except for here. This place is popular among students as well as interns at Phillips. Some others and I had a dinner event that we need to hold and decided to have the event here. We were glad we did because they were quite accommodating to our big group of 40 people and it worked out pretty well. I love their green beans. They have 2 (or 3 now) vegetarian options which are both very good, tasty, and filling. I will miss this place! The only warning is that it can get really crowded on Friday and Saturday nights.

Fairly small place but lots of tables. This place tends to more of a dive bar than an Irish Bar in my opinion but who can't love a dive bar with the name The James Joyce!! We were here late into the night visiting with friendly people we had met there and I can say I'm not sure if they do mixed drinks or food. Just went in and enjoyed multiple beers with 50 of my closest friends. If that's what you're looking for (and who isn't) this is the place for you. Just remember it's crowded and somewhat of a dive. Go! Try it! You won't regret it!

When I first moved to Bonn, back in 2006, I used to visit this bar quite regularly with a friend of…read moremine. It was run by a really nice girl and offered great service; a really fun pub. Last Friday, my wife suggested we go there and try their fish & chips. This isn't the only Irish pub in Bonn and they all serve this traditional British dish, which is unavailable anywhere else. If you want 'British' fish & chips, you have to go to an Irish pub and we were very close to this one so decided to give it a try. Bad move. On arrival, we had to wait ten minutes for anyone to come and take our order, so she opted for half a Guinness and I asked for a large pils. The pils, I'm pretty sure had been tampered with by having ullage returned to the barrel. I requested a local 'Kölsch', which was much better. Half way through this second drink, the 'food' arrived. On the menu it said only 'fish & chips'; no description whatsoever. What arrived looked like supermarket-bought breaded fish fillets with frozen chips. Nothing like the dish one would reasonably expect in an Irish pub. To be fair, there was no description, so we were guilty of assumption, but when we asked the waitress about it, she kept repeating that she understood our disappointment but that is the way they serve it. She went to speak to her boss, who approached our table with the Bill containing the full charge. Bearing in mind that we hadn't eaten anything, she was extremely rude and completely unwilling to even consider any compromise, conciliatory gesture or understanding. It was a case of 'tough'. End of story. We paid and then gave the food to the young group of guys on the next table, who told us that they liked going to the pub to drink, but not to eat. We then went to The Fiddlers Irish pub in Endenich, where we had exactly what we were expecting in the first place. I worked in pubs for about five years and understand that you get difficult customers, but we were not being awkward. We had what we felt was a genuine issue which was met with total indifference, disdain and disrespect, which was completely unwarranted.

THE BALM OF A BIERGARTEN…read more This establishment lends itself admirably to the requirements of the tourist who has partaken of a gentle cruise upon the Rhine (cf http://www.qype.co.uk/place/851103-Weisse-Flotte-Duesseldorf , and who seeks a light bite to eat prior to further thirst quenching on a sunny day. It commands a pleasant view of the gently flowing and sparkling if sadly less potable waters of the Rhine, Photo link: http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd76/Textklick/Qype/e11a3ba9.jpg with its subdued bustle of barges soporifically cruising along a rate of urgency that reflects one's mood of delighted lethargy, procrastination and general wellbeing. Oozing into the beer garden, the casual British visitor will doubtless be delighted to note a charmingly derelict Rolls-Royce Photo link: http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd76/Textklick/Qype/f006b7a5.jpg which conjures up imagery of H.E. Bates' classic contribution to literature: Video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1ioFpG5I3E&feature=search The garden is pleasantly shaded by chestnut trees and drinks are served to the table. According to the menu, if you prefer a snack such as a salami butty or a mess of potage, you must collect it from a window by the kitchen, where it will be swiftly prepared to order. Those preferring something of more substance must order it, retire to their table and then keep a eagle eye open for the number that has been assigned to them to be displayed high up in the garden and which indicates Come and get it. This procedure seems to be slightly complicated, but it frees up the beer garden staff for their key duties of dispensing ale to dehydrated punters, so let's stick with our priorities. One German reviewer notes that the seats are rustic and I must certainly agree and withdraw one star for that. Rather than bench seating, they give the impression of being vast sections of tree trunks which in places are at an angle of some 20 degrees off the perpendicular. Indeed, I am surprised that the usually vigilant German authorities permit an arrangement which could prove to be a health hazard to topers, be they sober or otherwise. Clearly a case for local specialists Thyssen Krupp to step in with some underpinning, piledrivers, or similar. The prices seem to be reasonably humane, given the apparently oligopolistic configuration of riverside watering-holes in Kaiserswerth and a view for which the Swiss would inevitable levy their characteristic surcharge. As I have noted elsewhere, Kaiserswerth boasts a Florence Nightingale Hospital. A cursory glance at the wall of the main building failed, however, to reveal a commemorative blue plaque stating that Florence Nightingale got lamped here in 1851.
