Weinstube Lösch

Mainz


Traditional, timber-lined Lösch is a wonderful spot for local specialities, such as Kartoffeleintopf mit Speck und Fleischwurst (sausage casserole with bacon and cabbage) and Kartoffelklösse Gefüllt Wahlweise mit Leberwurst (medallions of pork with liver-stuffed potato dumplings). It serves its own wines from its Bingen estate, alongside other local vintages. Tables set up on the cobblestones in summer.
