What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Propeller is a popular student-friendly bar and restaurant known for its delicious burgers and craft beers, as well as a lovely beer garden perfect for summer evenings. While many praise the fast and friendly service and the vibrant atmosphere, some reviewers note limited dessert options and occasional unfriendly staff encounters. The food is generally well-received, especially the sweet potato fries, though one review suggests avoiding the Schnitzelburger for those who prefer moist dishes.
"We used to be regulars at propeller for over a decade until an altercation with a female staff member early December last year. We ended up at Propeller due to unforeseen circumstances and were looked after a lovely waiter, Julian who provided our group of 7 with an excellent, friendly and attentive service. Thank you very much Julian."

"I liked their menu style and price wise it is very good. The staff was not the best, there was a blonde lady there that rudely ignored me at the till trying to pay. Otherwise the place is very nice and they organise fun pub quizzes."

Solange sich nur der Name eines Lokals ändert, aber die positive Aura erhalten bleibt, solls mir recht sein. Das heutige Propeller war einst der gutbürgerliche Schuberthof, in dem ich als Kind meine ersten „öffentlichen Auftritte“ hatte. Ich musste bei Weihnachtsfeiern ungarische Gedichte aufsagen, von denen ich kein Wort verstand.
