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.

I liked the small menu, what makes it easy to find the proper item. Actually it is just burgers, Fries, hotdogs and sandwiches. Everything is made to order, so take some time. I had a bacon burger with everything on the patty. Tasted good. The milkshake that I ordered too, was awesome. So...highly recommended.

2 1/2 stars. I love five guys. We visit it regularly when we're in the states, so when we found out…read morein was coming to Germany we were pretty excited. We went in it's second week open. It was extremely busy. I got the standard double, my husband got a double double (4 patties) and we shared a Cajun fry and a Hot Dog.(all toppings are always free) The burgers were alright. They were not hot or warm like I like a fresh hot burger to be. They weren't juicy either. The Cajun fries we couldn't even really eat because they tasted like they poured the whole jar of Cajun seasoning on top. And it's definitely much more expensive than in the US. So I was a little disappointed that we didn't get what we paid for. The kitchen staff seemed under trained and kept bumping into each other at every turn while holding patties. Not a fan of watching someone yelling while they're running around with my burger on a spatula. Then again, all of these could be blamed on grand opening stress. We are going to give them one more chance once things simmer down a bit.

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!

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.

There is a chicken sandwich as well but the food is limited to sandwiches. Overall worth a try.
