"A perfect spot for a light breakfast. While it’s not a traditional German breakfast, it’s simple and classy. The atmosphere is lovely, and the service is outstanding."
Demetre Dzmanashvili
"I tried the day menu which was minced meat inside cabbage leaves in a diced bacon-onion sauce (which to me was salty) and a small dessert ( not too sweet). The environment is nice and the staff was welcoming and attentive. In warmer weather outdoor seating area would be a nice option as it’s located in a wide, beautiful street."

Restaurants in Munich and Nuremberg
Nürnberg: Weinhaus Steichele, Knorrstrasse (good wine list, refined Franconian kitchen; reservation recommended); beer hall Bruderherz, Luitpoldstrasse; Literaturhaus (opposite the Bruderherz); Provenza (Hauptmarkt, Italian); Sangam (Indian; Königsstrasse, near tourist info). I'd avoid the overpriced Bratwurst-somethings around the Hauptmarkt (main market) and the beer hall on the Königsstrasse, which is the only real tourist trap in Nuremberg.
What Is There to Do in Nuremberg?
Other notable eateries would be Bruderherz – Brauwerkstatt Restaurant Stadthotel, which was right next to our hotel and had a really good salad (so good I ordered one to eat and another to go!); Wonder Waffel, a cute dessert shop with fun waffle creations and an employee who was in love with Ellie; and Restaurant im Literaturhaus, which had a pretty great brunch spread, though the service was not my favourite.

Als ehemaliger Stammgast ist mir wichtig, dass wir ein so wunderbares Restaurant wie den Goldenen Pudel nicht verschwinden lassen. Schließlich darf ein so einzigartiges Lokal in unserer Metropolregion Nürnberg nicht fehlen. Gemeinsam mit meinem Restaurantleiter Jens Maassen haben wir uns aufgemacht, unsere Gäste im Pudel mit Top Service und kulinarischen Köstlichkeiten zu überzeugen.
