Two adults/two kids (hungry) and we got out for under 50 euro. The food was excellent, and the service was very attentive (despite a busy Sunday crowd). The wait staff was definitely a cut above the average, and very willing to indulge our efforts to speak German.The kids menu was as expected, and a good bargain. The adult menu had the traditional fare. We had a putenschnitzel in mushroom sauce and a saurbraten. Both were well prepared and tasty. The local beer, Wallfahrbier, is memorably delicious.Highly recommend if you are in town. There are fancier places, but if you want great food, great beer, fair prices and excellent service, you cannot do better than Scheffel.

The interior is a typical Franconian pub, still maintaining it's 1950s look and feel — but well maintained and in top condition. It's one of the places where the locals go for food and drink apparently, and for a reason: food is of very good quality at decent prices, the local beer (Wallfahrerbier) is well worth a try and the staff are friendly. A true family run restaurant.

The food was excellent, and the service was very attentive (despite a busy Sunday crowd). The waiting staff was definitely a cut above average and very willing to deepen our efforts to speak German. The children's menu was as expected and a good bargain. The adult menu had the traditional fare. We had a turkey carving in mushroom sauce and a sourd rate. Both were well prepared and delicious. The local beer, pilgrimage beer, is delicious. Very recommended if you are in town.
