Quality of Drinks
❤️❤️❤️❤️
A good range all-round covering cocktails, aperitivo, mixers, shots and schnapps and – yes – beer, a couple of more unusual offerings alongside Franconia’s great lagers.

Décor
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Upstairs in a historic timber building that is also a complex of bars. A creaky staircase leads to a 1st floor bar with a young crowd, but sat among what appears to be a 19th century Medieval revivalist interior with ornate wood fit ceiling, frescos and all-round sense of centuries past.

DescriptionUpstairs in a historic timber building that is also a complex of bars is the unusual, quirky Rotenschild. A creaky staircase leads to a 1st floor bar with a young crowd, but sat among what appears to be a 19th century Medieval revivalist interior with ornate wood fit ceiling, frescos and all-round sense of centuries past. Hardly what you’d expect the generation to find appealing, but further evidence that people who deride traditional décor as unpopular in that age category haven’t got a clue. The bar sells good Franconian beers along with cocktails, shots and Aperitivo all at a reasonable rate. Looking out over Bamberg’s most famous thoroughfare and enjoying the incredible surroundings makes for an atmospheric evening. (Added August 2023)
