Neuenheim

Fodor's Review:

To escape the crowds of Heidelberg, walk across the Theodor Heuss Bridge to the suburb of Neuenheim. At the turn of the 20th century this old fishing village developed into a residential area full of posh art-nouveau villas. North of the Brückenkopf (bridgehead) you'll find antiques and designer shops, boutiques, and cafés on Brückenstrasse, Bergstrasse (one block east), and Ladenburger Strasse (parallel to the river). To savor the neighborhood spirit, visit the charming farmers' market on Wednesday or Saturday morning at the corner of Ladenburger and Luther streets. Neuenheim's market is bigger than the one at Marktplatz in Heidelberg's Old Town. The beer pubs Vetter's and O'Reilly's (once voted best Irish pub in Germany) draw a young crowd; the chic bistros Le Coq and Bar d'Aix cater to a more mature set; and Marktstübel and Dorfschänke serve good food in a casual, cozy atmosphere. All are within a five-minute walk from one another on the streets named above.
