“ANNA offers an inviting atmosphere for families with children. The indoor play area and the outdoor playground provide plenty of fun and movement. Parents can chat in peace while the kids play, as the noise level remains pleasant. The friendly staff contributes to the positive experience, and the waffles are a hit, even with picky eaters. A recommendation for warm socks or non-slip socks for adults would be helpful. Many of the older negative reviews refer to the previous situation, which has since improved.”

Grugapark Restaurant

887 Reviews

Virchowstraße 167, 45147 Essen

High chairOutdoor playground

“The Orangerie in Essen is a child-friendly place, perfect for a little break after a walk in Grugapark. With a rating of 3.5/5 and 887 reviews, the dining options include both coffee and cake as well as hearty dishes like pizza and soup. Although the service is often friendly and attentive, the ambiance is described as needing improvement, with outdated furniture and insufficient cleanliness. Wait times can be long, especially during busy periods. Nevertheless, there are positive experiences with the service, such as free drinks in special situations. The Orangerie is well-suited for outdoor stays, while the interior receives more mixed reviews.”
