  5. Erfurter Brauhaus

    As well as tasty square meals, we found the ubiquitous Three Wise Men of German boutique brewing here: one pilsner, one wheat beer and one dark beer. The fourth, the Märzbier (a blended pilsner and dark beer), must be popular because it had run out on the day.

  9. Lutherkeller

    The Lutherkeller theme-eatery (downstairs from Alboth's Restaurant 0361 568 8207) is a different kettle of fish - straw on the floor, chirpy personnel and prices in German Thaler (one-to-one exchange rate, they say). Each to their own, both are excellent.
