"Der "Alte Godekin" ist ein alt eingesessener Jugoslawe mit typischen Grillgerichten und wirklich leckerer Salatbar. Alles ist frisch zubereitet, das Personal nett und preislich ist es fair. Außerdem bietet das Restaurant eine Kegelbahn sowie einen klassischen Kneipentresen. Wir waren schon öfters dort, auch mit größerer Gruppe und kommen immer gerne wieder. Wer Gemütlichkeit und Rustikalität in Wellinghofen sucht, der ist hier richtig."
