Regensburg Travel Forum

I will be traveling to Regensburg 12/24 – 12/26. Will there be places to eat. My brother lives in Augsburg, he explained around holidays things tend to shut down. With that said do I need to take groceries? I have been two other times to Regensburg but only in the spring. Thanks for you help. Daniel Little

It is pretty common for restaurants to open and offer special "Christmas lunches" on the 25th and 26th. However you need to find out in advance which restaurants these are and often call them to reserve. A good bet are the big hotel chains which typically offer "all-you-can-eat" Brunch buffet.

The other places that are bound to be open are gas stations and small shops in train stations.

So yeah, best have an emergency supply of a few sandwiches, cookies, some fruit and a bottle of water. Nothing much, just so that you will survive one or two days if you cannot find anything to buy.

On December 24th many restaurants close in the afternoonm but not all of them. Almost all hotel-restaurants are open. If you contact me in the beginning of December I can give you some information! Where are you staying? Hotel or with friends? All stores close December 24th in the evening and open again on December 27th. If you want to buy anything, buy it on the 24th!

Oh ... I just saw that it was in 2007! Nevertheless if anyone needs information just let me know!
