Food & Drink in Chemnitz

Saxon cuisine, brewpubs, cafés & scene gastronomy

The Chemnitz dining scene combines Saxon down-to-earthness with cosmopolitan variety. Traditional taverns and brewpubs serve hearty regional classics and freshly tapped beer, while upscale restaurants and international kitchens provide variety. A special setting awaits guests in the restaurant of the Villa Esche or in the Kellerhaus, one of the oldest inns in the city.

On the Kaßberg and above all on the Sonnenberg, a young, creative scene of cafés, bars and eateries has established itself, giving nightlife new impulses. Added to this, confectioneries and coffeehouses invite you to a break over coffee and cake, very much in the Saxon tradition.

This category leads you to the culinary addresses of the city, from the quaint brewpub to the trendy scene bar. It shows that enjoyment in Chemnitz is closely tied to the transformation of the city and that a stop often becomes the loveliest part of the day.
