  • Weihenstephaner I believe are the oldest brewer in Germany and are of course Bavarian.

    The restaurant/bar has a good selection on the menu, the food is very good and portions aren't too bad. Maybe a bit pricey but you pay for the location. As they only have their own beer the selection isn't vast but there are usually 4 or 5 to chose from. As they are Bavarian there is also a large selection of Obstlers or fruit schnappes as weel. The bar may not seem large but there is also a large cellar and in the summer tables and chairs outside.

    I like the bratwurst with mashed potatoes.

    Just next to KaDeWe is this little restaurant where you can get nice German fare and Berlin beer. The spätzle might not be as cheesy as in Schwaben and the flammkuchen as good as along the French border but the taste is definately there and the selection is nice. You can also have a hearty "farmers breakfast" or just a coffee for that matter. All in a nice setting with pictures from the Faust legend on the walls in this otherwise art noveau interior.

    Spätzle...

    Excellent friendly place. We were given a tip at the VT meeting by Nigel to visit this place and he wasn't wrong.

    A typical German restaurant with its wooden interior and beer mugs all over the walls, also look out for the ornate cash register.

    Excellent value for money as well. Serves food until about 11pm.

    I had the "Lammhax´n mit Backkartoffel und Kräuterrahm" (Lamb shanks with jacket potato) which was excellent, all washed down with 3 half litres of Hefeweizen.

    Really good...definately go there again

    German Food: Best potatoes ever!

  • The restaurant is located in a basement close to the Brecht Theatre. It's cozy, intimate, rustic, but not really very special. What makes it special is the enormous range of potatodishes. And the taste.. The whole consept of this kind of no-nonsense food, based on the humble vegetable. And they succeed.

    We had only a plate of boiled potatoes, fresh asparagus and ham with homemade (I belive) Hollandaise. Yet it is one of the most tasteful dinners I've had, and trust me; I've had many! I don't know what made it so unforgettable; it was sort of "clean". No funny stuff, just great tasting meat, vegetables, gravy and the best potatoes I have ever tasted. No doubt I'm going back the next time I'm in Berlin. Made me want to go back to Norway and start my own potatocellar. Which I didn't, I'm afraid.

    We wanted to get into a traditional Berlin/German restaurant and found this excellent place in the AA spiral guidebook we had for the trip.

    The basement bar was clean and tidy and the service was polite and prompt...as it always is in Germany. We had just about translated the menu from German and had made our choices when the waiter gave us another menu with English translation...we had got most things right down to the pea puree.

    Nic had the excellent "Berliner Eisbein mit deftigem Sauerkraut, hausgemachtem Erbspüree sowie Speckstippe
    und Salzkartoffeln" (Ham knuckle with mashed potato and sauerkraut...see travelogue for photo) and I had the really tasty "Rosa gebratene Kalbsleber "Berliner Art" in Rosmarinbutter mit glasierten Zwiebeln, gebratenen Apfelscheiben und Kartoffelschnee" (Calf livers with apple)...all washed down with some excellent Berliner beer.

    We didn't manage to get to the dessert menu as we thought we leave some room for more beer.

    I would certainly eat here again.

    German Food: bohemian beer garden in Prenzlauer Berg

    beer garden
    by miromi
    beer gardens are more of a south German thing, not really typical of Berlin or northern Germany. But in the lovely neighborhood of Prenzlauer Berg you can find a really pleasant, artsy beer garden, Prater Garten. It has a theater, a club (Bastard) and an enormous beer garden. There's also an indoor restaurant if you are there in the winter, and I like to take friends who visit there, because you can get some genuine German food (wurst, mashed potato rolls, the works) in generous portions and drink beer too before you head off clubbing. Most of the people who go are also neighborhood twenty and thirtysomethings, so it has a nice youthful air.

    This country pub has a wonderful atmosphere and is very nicely decorated also has a large beer garden and grill for the summer. They brew their own beer on the premises and also have a quality menu.

    My favourite here is always the ribs with country potatoes. The ribs are not typically German but more to the American style very juicy and covered in BBQ sauce. The menu is not that large but all the meals are good and you get a very generous portion.

    This is one of my favourites in Alt Tegel. The menu is very German with Haxe and Schnitzel featuring prominently. Dishes are served with the usual sides of Red cabbage, saukraut and dumplings. A good selection of beers and schnappes!

    I usually go for a Haxe if I'm hungry if not then maybe a schnitzel.

  • Quiet and nice place, quite close to the Zoo Metro Station. Typical Berlin-style food for reasonable prices.

    Herrings in many different styles. Brat-wurst and good soups.

    This unpretentious restaurant specializes in simple yet very tasty food. The specialility being half a roast chicken which compliments the very fine kloster beer they serve!

    The roast chicken.
