The way this place imitates McDonald's in terms of looks, boggles the mind. The "MrCafe" (not to be…read moreconfused with McDonald's "McCafe") stand is the icing on the cake. I just wonder why they do that. The food they hand out is a lot better than what you can get at McDonald's so there is little need to look like one. It feels like they are selling themselves short, not building their own brand, not having their own style. That said, it is Fast food too. This is not an "artisanal Burger Joint" or stuff like but. But they show that you can take the fast-food concept and make it better than the Big Names.

Wir haben uns vom Imbissklassiker "Poutine" (heißt in etwa "Sauerei") inspirieren lassen und Fritten von der Beilage zur Hauptspeise befördert.

FOOD & DRINKS This restaurant puts a little twist on some…read morevery common fast food items and elevate them with quality and imagination. There are hot dogs and burgers with all sorts of toppings. Regular sandwiches, salads, pancakes, other breakfast items and a few more options to pick from. Good news for vegan and vegetarian eaters as well. Almost everything on their menu can be served with a meat and cheese substitute. I picked one of their PANdemic specials. The summer dog. The organic sausage wrapped around toasted flatbread was juicy. The most dominant flavor came from the cherry tomato comfit. Everything else was very settle. The salad unfortunately was drenched in its dressing and completely lost its crunch. The flatbread to me wasn't toasted long enough. Overall the taste was still very pleasant. SERVICE I have read some reviews before I went here and a lot of reviews pointed out the excellent service. Well, I can only agree. The service is outstanding. The waitress I had during my visit was very friendly, attentive and on top super cute and attractive. ATMOSPHERE The interior design alone is worth coming here for. Usually a lot of the new places go for the more industrial look. Very sleek and modern. This one is very old fashioned but in a stylish way. There are so many details to enjoy. It felt like stepping back in time. Sit, relax, enjoy your food and a wonderful service. RATING In my opinion only the execution of the food had some minor issues. Everything else was just above and beyond. PANtastic!

I ate several times at the Essen restaurant on Lindanallee right downtown, near the train station…read more Its a slightly upscale place, with glass mugs for pop/soda, nicer looking tables and chairs and a "Happy" feeling environment. The burgers and fries are good, they have a variety of options and you can add fries and a drink as a combo. They have a vegetarian option as well. Its counter order and sit down, so fast food style, with better quality food. The Classic combo meal I had was around 13 Euros. There is a chicken sandwich as well but the food is limited to sandwiches. Overall worth a try.

Pictures on the menu make it look HUGE; but it isn't . Enough to fill you up though. The variety of ketchup flavors was an added bonus, with the very spicy Schon Scharf BBQ style being my favorite.
