If the weather cooperates, Cafe/Restaurant Hauptmann's is a perfect spot to have breakfast at their outdoor tables. Very nice area without any traffic. Their buffett provids with a nice selection of different juices, fruits, breadrolls, cereals, yoghurts, scrambled or fried eggs etc.

Been there for just a cup of coffee which was quite good, hot and creamy. Cafe is comfortable close to Porta Nigra Gate what means it's the perfect spot for that see and to be seen thing, for those that are into that. Near by is also the tourist information, train and different bus stations.

This restaurant has a nice outdoor area right by the cross on the market square. We enjoyed beers and wine befire having dinner. Nicole had the nudeln, what seemed to be a fusion of German and Italian. I had the Wiener Schnitzel. Both dishes were good and the service was better than average. Two glasses of wine, two beers, two dinners for 46 Euros.

Favorite Dish: Wiener Schnitzel

The Zum Domstein isn't only great for lunch and supper. It's also a good place to go after visiting the cathedral (just behind it) for tea and home-made apple strudel, with or without a splodge of home-made ice cream. Friendly waitresses. Good for families. Plenty of local people.

Favorite Dish: Apple strudel

I'm sorry that I forgot to note the address of this restaurant but it is reasonably easy to find in a side street off the main square. Inside or outside dining is available. The theme is very local but the food comes from everywhere.

Favorite Dish: Naturally, I chose the Australian Barramundi, grilled with chips and salad. Absolutely delicious and the strudel was one of the best I had in all my 2009 trip. Good service friendly staff and all up with a glass of the inevitable red was 23 euro. Well worth a visit.

New Minton's is situated in Jakobstrasse and fronts on to a little square with a beautiful old tree in the centre. There is an extensive outdoor area to dine or drink or inside if you prefer. The service was efficient and friendly and the price was right for my budget.

Favorite Dish: I chose a steak with chips, salad and mushroom sauce, just like I have at home. It was mouthwatering and at 14 euro for the steak and 4 euro for a glass of good dry red, it was a bargain as well.

We were fortunate to be in the company of our good friend from Heidelberg, who had recently spent a special weekend in Trier with her girlfriends for her 50th birthday; so she suggested the restaurant/wine bar. As always, we weren't disappointed with her choice.
Spacious setting, with tables widely apart from each other. The sevice was excellet, including suggestions made when requested, which turned out perfect. All the food was artistically presented and delicious.

Favorite Dish: I had the rack of lamb, which was superb! very tender and delicious, good portions. see photo
