Compliment Somnambulist (09-07-2008) 2

The altbier is pertty good, probably second or third in Dusseldorf behind Schumachers, and the atmosphere - particularly outside when it is warm can be buzzy. At least until mid-evening. After that, some of the locals start to suffer from the effects of the strong beer and it can get a bit tiresome.

Ueriges is where you go to take out-of-towners for the ‘authentic’ old town pub experience. Note though, once you get past the novelty of having your tab scrawled in pencil on a beermat, you’ll find that authentic equates to consistently woeful service. If it’s busy you grow gradually irritated by one minute having a half-empty refill sloshed on your table without being asked, to the next 20 mintues with empty glasses trying in vain to get the attention of deliberately blinkered, randomly wandering servers. Grudging and indifferent are the best euphemisms I can come up with, but then to be fair Ueriges doesn’t have the monopoly on grumpy waiters in the Altstadt.

Food is basic and would recommend moving on to one of the countless other eateries on offer in the Altstadt.

The most famous Duesseldorf Brauhaus, not beautiful, but very authentic. If you like the more bitter kind of Altbier, this is your place. Plain food, but good.
