Outside you can observe how it comes and goes as well as other boat traffic on the river. Eating is local... German cuisine. Good, delicious, decent portions. I was born in the area and taste is very authentic. We sat outside in the beer garden on a summer day and watched the sun. The place seems to attract a fair number of people, so was busy, but not crowded. It was a Monday. I had a nice boiled ferryman Schnitzel while my friend enjoyed a rag steak. It was Rumpsteak Monday. The menu has special items that change the day. We also shared some of the local hand cheeses. Everything done and filled. The site says they occasionally have live music, not when we were there. I'd be happy to go back there.

My husband and I had coffee, our friends had a mixture of currant juice and Seltzer, we all shared a bunch of salty, freshly baked soft pulps. Fantastic. There were also cakes and larger foods.
