Hexenhäusla (that is the local expression for "witch-house" ) is an interesting restaurant in the backside of the castle and close to the moat. Just take a look at the many witches in and outside of the restaurant and in the restaurant-garden. The building is worth seeing as well, as it dates back to the medieval times and still includes a large well and a halftimbered facade.

Favorite Dish: I did not eat anything in this lovely restaurant, but I think that it is a great place to eat dinner or lunch, especially when you are coming with children and they will have a seperate menu for children. Of course you will get Nuernberger Rostbratwurst there as well !
"Nuernberger Bratwurstknödel"
is a speciality,that you will find only in this restaurant:
3 potatoe-dumplings, filled with Bratwurst
served with Sauerkraut and gravy for 7,50 Euros

Lebkuchen / Gingerbread was produced by monks in various monasteries in Nürnberg since the Middle Ages and they soon became famous all over Bavaria and the surrounding countries.
It was certainly also the fact that Nürnberg was centrally located and Lebkuchen could be easily transported to other places from there.
When thinking of Lebkuchen - in former times also called Lebzelten - most people still think of Nürnberg, as it seems to be the best quality.

Favorite Dish: This food-stand on my picture is built on the facade of a big shopping-centre, where Lebkuchen is not only sold at christmastime, but during all of the year.

Nürnberger Rostbratwürste are a must when you are in Nürnberg and you may get them at many restaurants and food-stands in Nürnberg and also in the Handwerkshof.

Of course you may taste them all over Germany and Austria, but here they are best !!

Favorite Dish: Nürberger Rostbratwurst - sometimes simply called "Nürnberger" - are rather small, white pork-sausages with special spices and they will be roasted unill they get a brown skin.
Mostly they are served with Sauerkraut and mustard and taste really great and are even a rather cheap meal.

This restaurant is a great place to see some oldfashioned restaurant-interior as well as tasting local specialities like the famous "Nürnberger Rostbratwurst".
The historic Bratwurst-kitchen "Zum Gulden Stern" is a historical restaurant dating back to 1419 and you will still see there the quite unique oven with an open fire and a "Rost" , (a grid) that is the traditional way to prepare "Nuernberger ROST-Bratwurst" in the old way over the open fire and it tastes also a lot better than the sausages roasted in oil in a pan.
The interior of the cosy restaurant bis worth seeing as well and the crew did not mind, when I was walking around making my photos, dont miss to search for that great chandelier !!!

Favorite Dish: Nürnberger Rostbratwurst is a "Must" there of course (my last pic) , but I also had some "Obatzter" , a bavarian speciality and both of that was even quite too much, as the portions are quite large there.

This is a nice restaurant, situated just next to the lake in Nazi Party Rally Grounds. I bet it’s very beautiful in the summer cause it has a big terrace with a view to the lake. But inside is also interesting, it has many windows and I love such bright and clear places. The kitchen was delicious,typical Franconian. I have no idea what meals I had, it was a block table but believe me everything was very delicious.

Recentlly I was in the Zeit & Raum for a coffee. I liked the place. Lots of different small rooms. Some of them with a little arabic touch. They are supposed to have good brunches. I did not test it yet however. But is is recommended to make a reservation.

Cafe Zauberberg is a nice spot for having breakfast or just for coffee time. Cute atmosphere, furniture is inspired by art nouveau style - but in a modern interpretation.

Sachs & Söhne
I like this cafe/restaurant cause of its uncomplicated atmosphere. Also a gay friendly place. In summertime they have seats outside and serve cocktails. Close to the centre. In December the children's xmas maket takes place just in front of the bar. By the way, I love their fresh made lemonades;-)

The Bar Celona is a restaurant chain that has several restaurtant within German cities. It is pretty OK - it is supposed to have good brunches. Although I myself prefer smaller and more individual places...

The Salon Regina is a smal café/bistro that I like very much. It is a place that students and young people love. You get cake (but it is not a real cake café), they have good toasts, sandwiches, and some other small dishes. I love the atmosphere, it reminds me a little bit of my fave places in Hamburg;-)
