Dicker Mann

Top choice in Regensburg


The 'Chubby Chappy', a stylish, tranquil and very traditional inn, is one of the oldest restaurants in town, allegedly dating back to the 14th century. All the staples of Bavarian sustenance are plated up, plus a few other dishes for good measure. On a balmy eve, be sure to bag a table in the lovely beer garden out the back.
