Isn't it a bit much to expect everyone to accommodate you? What if some don't speak English?
It could be rude but not necessarily. Context matters

Well, tough luck. Welcome to Germany. Living and working in Germany? Learn German. This is the treatment I’ve got and frankly, that’s okay!

That's kinda rude if non-English speaking people join the conversation.
That's just rude and why would you want to socialise with such people. I had some great experiences and even when I was the only person not speaking the local language, everyone spoke English in my presence. There is plenty of people that have standards and if you cannot find them at a given time, just focus on something else.
