Vitushoehle - Füssen / Hopfen

We arrived on a Sunday eve and the place was naturelly quite empty. Despite being a calm night they managed to mess up our order of a glas of wine and GT....they also only accepted cash and the barman was very keen to point out our stupidity to not bring cash.

No idea where the owners had been drinking in Scotland and Ireland, but if, as they claim, their own version of a typical pub is based on experience, they must have visited some pretty dire establishments. OK, it was off season, but the place smells faintly of disinfectant, has the worst choice in folk music one can imagine (think Sex Pistols meets The Dubliners, all sung in German), and apart from a friendly if slightly wacky barman, the other staff were surly at best, and just plain rude at worst. It is family run, and the woman behind the bar runs the hotel next door. Dollar signs in her eyes, and her heart is just not in it. She couldn't really give a flying fig. Menu confined to iffy looking burgers and fries. I repaired to the excellent bar in the Hotel am Hopfensee.

We found this place quite by accident, but we are so happy that we did! The food was great, the drinks were plenty, and the atmosphere is very chill.

We went in the evening and sat inside and outside during our stay in Hopfen. Drinks were great and the burgers looked mile high! Our server Daniel was classy, funny and made our experience a memorable one! Thanks Daniel and we will be back!

The burgers are very good and abundant (approximately twice a standard bigmac). Good beers and whisky too. Price is fair and service is accurate. I surely suggest this place!
