The beers are well selected and the draft is well performed. Try the Jever that has a very crisp taste. Avoid the Koelsch in big glasses, it stays much fresher in the smaller ones. We waited 55 minutes for our food. The Schnitzel was dry like cardboard (rated 2) but the Sauerbraten tasty and moist (6). The place has an atmosphere of a Highschool Gym at play-off time, no chance for a decent conversation. The communal tables are fun. So, if you go, go for the beer.

This place thinks it's doing you favor letting you in the front door- the service was memorably bad (bordered on confrontational/aggressive) and overshadowed what should be a cool experience. Biergarten's should provide a laid back good time- Loreley's goes out of it's way to ensure you leave with neither.
