Zur Rheinfaehre Cafe Und - Xanten

Nice place, good food, terrasse, and wonderful views over the Rhine with various boats! A place to stop.

Had the Zander (sweetwater fish) with potatoes. I got a salat since the vegetables were finished. Big portion. Beautifully cooked, juicy fish. The potatoes, panfried with some bacon i could not stop eating. The wine, Weisseburgunder suited very well with the meal. Good service and excellent location.

We stopped here for lunch on the recommendation of a local. Hearty meals, with large children's portions, our lunch came to 55 euros for 2 X main meals, 2x kids meals and 4 X soft drinks. Cash only no credit card here.

At first looks it reminds me of places of the sixties (like in the movies) It probably was built then but the decor is very German Countryside 21 century with a look back a few places like a door to the telephone back when no one had one. Clean, upbeat and very friendly service with a smile. We came on a fairly quiet lunch time; the first ones at 11:30 and probably spoiled for attention but as the restaurant filled we still had good service and the food was excellent. I'm not a fancy up-poo about lux restaurants but if you are clean, comfy and kid friendly and the food is good and hearty fare that everyone can eat then thumbs up!

Looking for a break during our short trip to Xanten we found this little restaurant with fabulous terrace and River Rhine view. Meanwhile it is the place to cross the Rhine by ferry or to take the boat for a trip along Rees and Emmerich. It is allowed to take the bicycle on this boat so perfectly for a boat-bicycle trip through an interesting region, nature, little cosy towns/villages with many little good restaurants, terraces and Romain history. We ordered a Japanese green tea 4/5, a fresh prune cake 5/5, a lemon cake 5/5, a lunch plate salad, french crinkle fries, chicken nuggets 4/5. Very friendly service and fabulous look over the Rhine and its boat traffic 5/5. We will come back.
