Au Pont Corbeau: the last family winstub in Strasbourg
Gault&Millau calls it the city's last family winstub: a room full of regulars beside the Ill, new season choucroute in autumn, and prices that stayed sane.
Temporarily closed: Google was listing the restaurant as temporarily closed at the time of our survey, in July 2026, which matches the summer break of many winstubs, the traditional Alsatian taverns. Call before you set off. We will update this page as soon as it reopens.
The verdict
This is the address the serious guides keep to themselves: Gault&Millau describes it as the last family winstub in Strasbourg, and everything here confirms it, from the service that knows the regulars by name to dishes that follow the seasons rather than the fashions. Facing the Ill, next to the Musée Alsacien, Au Pont Corbeau is the winstub of the people who live here, not the one the coaches stop at.
What to eat
Choucroute, sauerkraut slow cooked with pork, is a serious matter here, and in autumn comes the new season version made with freshly fermented cabbage, milder and crunchier, rarely found elsewhere. Around it: onion tart, dishes cooked in white wine, offal handled properly and grandmother's puddings. The two course lunch menu at around €18 is one of the best value meals in the centre.
Visiting tip
Come for lunch on a weekday for the atmosphere of the regulars, and book by phone in the evening: the room is small and the house is well known. The 4.4 rating on more than 1,800 Google reviews puts it at the top of the city's traditional winstubs.
