Cologne

Früh am Dom is located in front of the Cathedral and is Cologne’s equivalent of the Hofbräuhaus in Munich, high ceilings, dark wood paneling, old oil paintings and a large tiled stove. They serve typical Kölsch food and beer on three floors. If you are in a larger group, it may be worth ordering a small barrel of beer, which will be put on the table.
Dining
For those not native to the area, it’s important to realise that a “Halver Hahn” is not a dialect term for half a chicken, but a rye bread roll filled with Gouda cheese. The regional beef dish “Rheinischer Sauerbraten” is a delicacy, which generally contains raisins and is served with delicious gravy and potato dumplings. In Cologne, you'll find no shortage of restaurants offering local specialities as well as international cuisine.
