Die Zoiglstub‘n ist ein sehr gutes, traditionelles bayrisches Gasthaus mit lecker Brotzeit und sehr leckere traditionelle Gerichte am Sonntag! Mein Nachtisch war sehr gut! Leider kann man den guten Geschmack am Foto nicht weiter geben! Das Bier absolut top! Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder! Die Preise sind bei diesem Gasthaus auch absolut günstig für diese gute Qualität

Wenn man denkt man ist am Ende der Welt angekommen, ist man hier genau richtig. Eine Zoiglstuben in Franken ist ja schon außergewöhnlich genug und dann auch noch hier ? Die Wirtin ist dafür sehr freundlich und die Brotzeiten sind wirklich lecker ! Das Bier kann man dafür besser hinbekommen, eigentlich sind die Wurzeln auch in der Oberpfalz. Vielleicht kann ich die Wirtin beim nächsten Mal von einer anderen Sorte überzeugen?

Toto bylo opravdové pohlazení na duši. Jednoduchá, ale vynikající kuchyně, klidné místo s příjemnou atmosférou, příjemná obsluha. Určitě tu zastavte, ať pěšky, na kole nebo autem.
