Brauhaus Früh am Dom

A traditional brewpub right opposite the cathedral – Cologne hospitality since 1904, a medieval vaulted cellar and a lounge with cathedral views.

The Brauhaus Früh am Dom stands on Am Hof, directly opposite Cologne Cathedral, and has welcomed guests of all ages since 1904. Its rustic ground floor, in the style of a Cologne tavern, is regarded as the heart of the house.
