The cult pub in Mainz. Since 1844.

House Rules

We’re glad you’re here! To help everyone feel comfortable, guests and staff alike, we have a few house rules. Thanks for following them.

  1. Please and thank you.

    Kindness goes both ways here. Treat us with kindness and we’ll do the same.

  2. We have names.

    Please don’t call us “hey”, “sweetie” or “darling”. Please don’t snap your fingers at us, tap us or pull on our shirts. We’ll be with you as soon as we can.

  3. Make room.

    When the pub fills up, things get a little tight. Please keep the way clear so we can get your drinks to you without spilling them.

  4. The bar is our workspace.

    Only staff are allowed behind the bar.

  5. No room for sexism or racism.

    We don’t tolerate disrespectful, sexist or racist behaviour towards our guests or our team. Anyone who behaves this way will have to leave. In an emergency, we’ll call the police.

  6. Talk to us.

    If you feel uncomfortable or are being harassed, speak to us at any time. You can do so discreetly. We’re here for you.

  7. Please be patient with our kitchen.

    Our kitchen is only 11 square metres, and almost everything is homemade. At busy times, food may take a little longer and some dishes may sell out.

  8. Please pay straight away at weekends.

    Weekends are busy here, so we’ll ask you to pay straight away.

  9. Terrace and quiet hours.

    From midnight, please stay off the terrace and don’t linger outside the entrance. There’s a reason for this: noise can get us into serious trouble with the local authorities and lead to fines. Thanks for helping us keep the noise down!

  10. Closing time means closing time.

    When we announce that we’re closing, please finish your drinks and head out promptly. Our team wants to get home too.

If you break these house rules, our team may ask you to leave the pub.

Thanks for visiting!

The Andau team
