Im Alten Zolln

Top choice in Lübeck


This classic pub inhabits a 16th-century customs post. There's an excellent beer selection. Patrons people-watch from terrace and pavement tables in summer and watch bands (rock and jazz) inside in winter. Fortify yourself with schnitzel and Lübeck's best roast potatoes.
