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.

We wouldn't typically repeat a…read morerestaurant during a short trip in a new city but our first experience for dessert late one night was so encouraging we came back for dinner the next night. It was my son's 16th birthday and we were trying to find a place that served dessert of some kind so we could celebrate appropriately...Veermaster was the place...open late and although crowded inside and out, we were given a table right away for the 2 of us. Our server was nice enough to accommodate my request to put a candle of some kind in the Baked French Roll Crumble dessert I ordered...there was a bit of comedy when he couldn't get it lit at the table and he had to take it back to the kitchen for help. And it was not just a candle but a full on sparkler...so quite the visual treat. I also had a neat shot of Jägermesiter. I'd never had it before and wanted something local to the region. We're vegetarian and the next night, our last night in Germany, we wanted another authentic German meal of some kind and saw they had "Anton's Cheese Spaetzle" on the menu. Okay! We'd already had our fill of vegan schnitzel and bratwurst elsewhere...let's give Spaetzle a try! We both ordered it...We easily could have shared one as it was quite a generous portion that neither of us could finish. It was pretty good...basically a German-style mac and cheese that came with a very fresh and impressive-looking side salad. We also ordered "3 Kinds of Bruschetta" - This is where we should have done a little more translation research as, again we're vegetarian, and one of them was herring. Okay, lesson learned for next time. The tomato and olive bruschettas were good though. We felt really well taken care of here. We had no problem getting seated on two very crowded nights in a row. It's an upscale comfortable place to eat in with plenty of seating at outside tables right on the Reeperbahn if you want that atmosphere. Thanks, Veermaster for giving us a great experience, and for the extra "sparkly" attention you gave to my son's birthday dessert.

Werde abgezockt und bezahle für Müll. 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

They were also really helpful in explaining the menu and how you can get a chug (smaller size) if you don't want the full serving. We wanted to try everything. Our main comment and unfortunately it affected our experience a lot is that smoking is allowed inside. This is not uncommon for bars in this country but they could have provided a pleasant experience for everyone and not just some by not allowing smoking inside. We smelled like smoke and our drinks came with a side of ill health. Other than that, we loved this bar and maybe it won't be raining next time so we can sit outside (where people still smoke but the smoke has somewhere to go).

Pretty cool stuff, I recommend it for sure. Prices are very ok and staff is super friendly! I loved it and will go back next time I'm in the city !
