Schweine Janes
About
Schweine Janes is a legendary grillhouse that has been a pillar of Düsseldorf’s Altstadt since 1970. Nestled on Bolkerstraße, it offers simple, honest cooking that celebrates the finest regional pork and vegetables. The menu is built around hearty specialties such as the famed pork roast bun, grilled cuts, and hand‑made sauces crafted without additives. Guests rave about the juicy, crispy pork roast buns and the robust flavor of the grill meats. A dedicated commitment to local sourcing means every pork cut is chosen by the chef himself, and every vegetable is tied to nearby farms, ensuring freshness and regional pride in every bite. The kitchen stays true to tradition, offering no gimmicks and delivering care in each dish. The atmosphere is unpretentious and convivial. From lunchtime crowds to late‑night revelers, Schweine Janes welcomes families, foodies, and night owls alike. Open from 12:00 p.m. to midnight on weekdays and until 2:00 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, the venue provides a relaxed grill experience where you can indulge in generous portions alongside local beers. Longtime patrons describe it as “an institution” in the Altstadt, a must‑visit for lovers of pork, and a friendly, no‑frills grill that has stuck around since 1970.
