This place is hard to review. The vibe and the atmosphere weree 4.5 *'s - as other reviewers have…read moresaid, it's a pleasantly unpretentious place. The food was about 2 *'s and it's definitely a case of quality over quantity. I got currywurst - the curry sauce tasted bottled, and the sausage wasn't well cooked. My kids got schnitzel and they said it was "mid". Honestly I think German food kind of caps out at 4 *'s - there's only so much you can do with boiled potatoes and kraut and sausages.

That's probably the only downside for me as I am vegetarian and they lack a bit in that department but I always get the "Bauernfrühstück" without the ham. This is basically an Omelette with potatoes and pickled cucumbers on top and it taste just like I remember it from my childhood, so just for that I go there ... I am sure they even have more dishes that are vegetarian but I never tried. The most special thing will be their opening hours as their kitchen is open all night long which makes the place also popular among party people also there is a table reserved for cab drivers.

Gleichzeitig muss man…read moresich das unverschämte Verhalten der Mitarbeiter anhören, die einen zu McDonald's schicken, weil das Essen, das sie servieren, ungenießbar und schlecht ist. Ich habe einen Burger mit Pommes bekommen - es war wirklich miserabel. Das Brötchen war mindestens fünf Tage alt, es zerbröselte komplett. Die Pommes waren labberig, überhaupt nicht knusprig oder richtig zubereitet - und obendrein ungesalzen. Das Fleischpatty war vorgegart, erneut aufgewärmt und total trocken. Der Bacon war in Fett oder Fritteuse gemacht, völlig zusammengekräuselt und geschmacklos. Ich habe noch nie so eine schlechte Mahlzeit für 19,50 € bekommen wie hier. Als ich bezahlte und der Mitarbeiterin sagte, dass das Brötchen extrem trocken sei und sie es selbst sehen könne - es lag unberührt auf dem Teller - meinte sie nur: "Gehen Sie doch zu McDonald's nebenan. Vielleicht haben die etwas, das Ihren Erwartungen entspricht." Ich bin schockiert, so etwas von einem Mitarbeiter zu hören, wenn man als Kunde bezahlt und berechtigte Kritik äußert. Offenbar interessiert sich dieses Unternehmen nicht für seine Kunden - also wird weiterhin schlechter Kram serviert. Ein guter Rat: Geht niemals dort hin - sucht euch ein anderes Lokal. English translation: Get ripped off and pay for garbage. At the same time, you have to deal with the rude behavior of the staff, who suggest you go to McDonald's because the food they serve is terrible and inedible. I ordered a burger with fries - it was truly awful. The burger bun was at least five days old; it completely crumbled apart. The fries were limp, not crispy or properly cooked - and had no salt at all. The patty was pre-cooked, reheated, and completely dry. The bacon was fried in oil or fat, curled up, and totally tasteless. I've never had such a terrible meal for €19.50 as I did here. When I paid and told the staff member that the burger bun was extremely dry - she could see for herself that it couldn't be eaten and was left on the plate - she said, "Go over to McDonald's next door, maybe they have something that meets your expectations." I'm shocked to hear something like that from an employee, especially after paying and offering honest feedback. Apparently, this business doesn't care about its customers - so the crap will continue to be served. So here's a good piece of advice: never go there - find somewhere else.

It's not that I've experienced bad service or had a fight with some waiter, it's just bad because the food is horrible. Why would someone pay 20 times more then you could buy the same food in supermarkets and heat it up in the microwave? Well that's is actually what Schwinske does. NOTHING IS FRESH. N O T H I N G. And I think someone who ownes such a chain and serve such bad food for that price, that person must be evil haha. I'm serious. IT'S A RIP OFF. I saw many times how they prepare the food. They just take it out form cans and/or defrost something. And the breakfast offer is just H O R R I B L E. Haha Do yourself a favor, be a little classy and spend a little more time, but the same money for some better restaurants to eat. Heeeyyyy that's why we have YELP :D

Cosiest beer-bar I have ever been to! This place is small and feels like home. The beer selection…read moreon tap is limited, but there's an seemingly endless list of handcrafted botteled beer to make up for it. Whenever I visit places that claim to be specialists I like to be guided in my choice. This part can really make or break an experience. If not guided with professionalism and entusiasm I might as well go somewhere else. In Alles Elbe the entusiasm is contageous and the love of beer is undenieable. Even the tapas-like dishes were presented with a love for quality and taste - made us want to taste everything. And so we did. The smoked ham was more than delish, so was the 'syltz', but after all we came for the beer... The two beers I had were great. I especially enjoyed the Brewcifer 'Rhubarb wire', a saison beer with rhubarb and basil. Eminent taste and such personality. So tell the host or hostess what kind you like and be bold when guided - you might strike gold! Remember that tap beer can be tasted before decision is made. And enjoy this wonderfully loving atmosphere for a evening. I know I did!

I'm not going to comment too much on the wine, as I'm no connoisseur, but I enjoyed the house red. I'll be back.
