One of the best restaurant/beergardens I've ever been to is located in the old city wall, partly in the tower, partly in the walk along the battlements. There's a variety of things on offer. Sit under old trees in the beergarden and enjoy local and Polish fare which is excellently cooked, and beer which is excellently brewed. Or sit on one of the romantic little tables by candle-light in the walk on the battlements with your sweetheart, looking at the medieval castle skyline. Or sit inside in the restaurant on rustic dark wood tables. Be sure to check out the large function room in the tower with near-360 degree panoramic views above the roofs of Nuremberg. Enjoy!

The Bäckerhof has a Thai restaurant downstairs and a bar upstairs. The building is unassuming from the outside but has a great space inside. The restaurant food is good and fairly inexpensive, with a small separate lounge area. Through the back there is a fussball table. Upstairs is a really huge bar with chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. Sofas, table service, cocktail waiters and a DJ make it a great place for a couple of pre-club drinks.

One of Nuremberg's most popular night-time locations, the Wax Lounge is in the BA (Bavarian American) Hotel. This bar/club attracts a young crowd who take advantage of upmarket but reasonably-priced drinks and bang-up-to-date sounds from top DJs.

This cafe, which is also a hotel, is a great, stylish place for breakfast, lunch, coffee, dinner, drinks etc in the very centre of town. Has a lovely terrace right above the river Pegnitz. Try to grab one of the few secluded outdoor tables in the back. On a summer day, there's no better place to be: just you, the river, a few ducks, a gentle breeze... what else would you want?
