At Weinhaus Loesch in Mainz, Germany, a Tradional Wine Tavern (May 2025)

As Munich is a town of beer taverns and Frankfurt is a town of apple wine (hard cider) taverns, Mainz is a town of wine taverns. Recently in Mainz, Annette Schiller and I went back to one of our long-time favorites: @Weinhaus Loesch. 

I had a bone-dry white from Stefan Braunewell Christian Braunewell and "Spundekaes".

Tradition im Herzen der Meenzer Altstadt 

Herzlich willkommen in einem der ältesten Weinhäuser in Mainz. Wir sind stolz Sie im Weinhaus Lösch begrüßen zu dürfen. Bei uns wird die Atmosphäre von der Wandvertefälung bestimmt. Die schönen Schnitzereien des patinierten Eichenholzes sind schon seit Generationen Hintergrund für gemütliche Weinstubengesseligkeit. Der Ursprung dieses Wirtshauses liegt in einer Schmiede. Noch um 1900 wurden hier Pferde beschlagen. Die Besitzer der Tiere konnten gern auf der Besohlung warten. Der Schmied hatte eine Schankkonzession, in den hinteren Räumen wurde gezapft. Mit Zunahme der Kraftwagen sank die Zahl der Pferde, die Hufschmiede war nicht mehr rentabel. Die Schankkonzession wurde ab 1907 Grundlage eines Wein- und Bierrestaurants, damals noch von Emil Horn geführt.Ein späterer, langjähriger Besitzer gab dem Wirtshaus seinen heute noch geläufigen Namen.

If you are of the opinion that a wine tavern must be rustic, small, cozy and have wood-paneled walls, then the Weinhaus Lösch is the right place for you. In the small guest room and on the terrace in front of the house a lot of importance is attached to hospitality and conviviality. The Brazilian Rodrigo Costa came to Mainz 12 years ago with his wife and fell in love with the city. He is delighted to be able to welcome and pamper guests together with his team and spoil them.
