Good solid bar with an American sport theme going on. And it is just around the corner (walking…read moredistance) from our hotel, Intercity Magdeburg. Plenty of TVs throughout the bar with soccer games going on. There is American sports items on the walls throughout. Prominent is the Green Bay Packers. A great selection of beers. I had three large Hefeweizens. The place has a full kitchen. You can get burgers, sandwiches and entree-type plates of food. The paper napkins are red, white and blue. A bit cheesy, but cute. I went for the turkey sandwich. Quite good. Smoking is allowed, but wasn't bad the night we were there. The restroom is upstairs. Sigh.

Horrible service on Saturday night. Lady behind bar does not know how to communicate with…read morecustomers. She is very unfriendly and rude and has no problem yelling at customers and belittling them. This is by far my worst experience after 28 years of traveling to Germany. Please avoid this palace like the plague. There are much more friendlier places in Magdeburg.

I was pleasantly surprised by Cafe Extrablatt! It looks like a tourist trap, and while it…read moredefinitely caters toward tourists, I quite enjoyed the food, beer, service, and outside seating. My friend and I took a day trip to Potsdam and stoped by Extrablatt for lunch before going to Sansoucci. We asked to sit outside to enjoy the sunny day and were seated immediately. We were a bit surprised at the number of menus (3-4 on the table) and had plenty of food options to choose from! I ended up ordering the Italian currywurst, mostly out of curiosity, and thoroughly enjoyed the twist on a classic German dish. As I don't particularly enjoy beer, I decided to try a fruit beer, which was much more to my taste. The only downside to my experience was the smokers sitting upwind of us, but I suppose that's inevitable in Europe.

Came during springtime and was pleased with the outdoor seating available on the street. Enjoyed a…read morequiet meal with a couple of drinks. Semi touristy with the menu available in both German and English. The German menu had thorough explanations of the meals.

Kullman's definitely had a diner feel to it with the interior, but with even more space. The menu…read moreincorporates various diner dishes and drinks, as well as some German dishes. It's a pretty expansive menu, and they offer English menus. We all ordered different types of burgers, which came with fries and coleslaw. Honestly, everything tasted fine. Nothing super amazing, but not bad either. Although, if you really want an American experience.. I'd pass on the milkshakes. We tried milkshakes in Germany on different occasions, and none of the times have they tasted anything like American milkshakes. It doesn't taste bad, just different. If you're open to trying something different, then definitely go for it. But, if you're expecting it to taste like the milkshakes in the US, you'll be disappointed.
