Tables are generously spaced among tall trees, and there is a small playground for children within sight but distant enough for the noise level to remain acceptable. Friendly service, although you 'll have to be patient on a busy day as they are not overstaffed. Which of course keeps the price level family friendly as well. This is not a place for connaisseurs of North German Haute Cuisine (very surprisingly, Celle does have four or six establishments in that category , but the standard German fare is well prepared and quite tasty with generous portions. If you are daring (and real hungry!! , go for the Rohe Roulade , Celle 's version of a main course Carpaccio it will give you enough energy to walk the whole ninety miles to Hamburg or Bremen. The seasonal fares (e. g. asparagus in spring, wild chanterelles in summer are particularly wonderful, and even very discriminate kids will find something to their liking on the menu. You 'll wish for a Hollywood swing to take an afternoon nap.

Rumpsteak und einen Fischteller. Das Essen kam schon nach relativ kurzer Wartezeit; da war ich etwas skeptisch. Aber beides war sehr gut und auch reichlich. die Bedienung war sehr freundlich, zuvorkommend und trotzdem sehr schnell. Hier würden wir jederzeit wieder hingehen.

But the service ended on a terrible note. We asked our server to share the bill for us... (there were four of us) she replied with an outstanding no, then she went on to calculate the bill so that the respective parties could pay for their parts. Now she had serious problems here, even though the numbers were not big at all. So I offered her a calculator to help her because she didn't have herself. She was insulted and continued to try hard to calculate the bill. Now this is just embarrassing, why don't you just apologize for a smile on your face and calculate the bill behind the scenes and back when you have so much trouble with it? All right. Strange behavior really and a fairly acidic end, which was a good meal.
