The best restaurants Potsdam

The Alter Stadtwächter (literally: the Old City Guardian) is a traditional restaurant located just behind Potsdam's Brandenburg Gate, right in the centre and close to the Sanssouci Park. The dishes on offer are typical, simple and at the same time hearty: a lot of meat, but also a selection of vegetarian dishes. Very inexpensive lunch menu. The setting has everything of an authentic and comfortable, bright and pleasant restaurant.

This restaurant enjoys an exceptional setting in a historic building in Sanssouci Park inspired by a Chinese pagoda, the Drachenhaus means Dragon's House. Popular with groups at lunchtime, it lends itself especially well to a romantic dinner, either on the terrace, weather permitting, or in one of the elegant rooms. The à la carte menu offers a variety of fine German and international dishes prepared with fresh produce. The pastries are home-made and for the wine, you can enjoy the advice of a sommelier.
