We recently visited Schumachers for the first time in years to use a gift certificate we had…read morereceived. It was exactly as I remembered. The food was good, but nothing special. I expected more for the price. The service was very attentive, but almost to a fault. Every couple minutes we were interrupted. We sat upstairs, where there are four small tables crowded together in a tiny space. All the tables were occupied and we felt very observed, aware that everyone in the tiny room could hear our every word. It was uncomfortable. Our evening ended on a particularly sour note when we asked for the check and handed over our gift certificate. A few minutes later, we were smugly informed that the gift certificate -- which we received during COVID and did not include an expiration date -- had expired and the restaurant refused to accept it. Ugh. Needless to say, we will not be going back to Schlumachers.

Cute little soup place in the middle of hip Schanze in Hamburg. A few tables outside but inside…read moreonly standing bars / tables with not enough bar stools. They have a selection of weekly and monthly soups that smell and taste good. Be it German Gulasch, coconut soup or afrikan lentil. It is well priced. The staff is friendly but all in all this was nothing mind blowing.

When I worked on Schulterblatt, this was our spot for lunch at least twice a week! Our diet plan…read morewas to eat more soup and salad so that we could avoid all those hearty carbs, such as the juicy hamburgers and thick cut pommes that can be found at the Bullerei. The only catch is that they have this extremely delicious bread that goes perfectly dunked into any which soup you choose but I adore the creamier options, so you end up eating more bread than soup that ruined our diet regimen, haha! If you are going to splurge on high calorie soup and endless dipping bread, please come here, it is delicious. The shop is a bit small, so if you plan to sit down during lunch rush you may find it a bit crowded as the inside has one bar to sit near the window and an outdoor bench style park table that seats comfortable 4 people. Its friendly, quick, uncomplicated and tasty. Typically more of a lunch type soup shop!

We did not have a reservation but they were able to seat us, no problem. We got some drinks, placed…read moreour order. The waiter spoke English and was friendly. Just as the name translates to "freshly caught", everything tasted simply fresh and local. We got the Nordic snack, fish soup, salmon burger, and salmon with potatoes, mushrooms and peas - everything was tasty. The soup that we started with was so flavorful and bold, with the skewered shrimp perfectly cooked. Incredibly generous portions. Very cozy, relaxed atmosphere with candles lit and quite full for 7p on a Tuesday. They also have a stand across the street by the water, featuring fish and chips plus fischbrotchen, bier and vino. It is a nice addition, people can eat by the water and relax.

Been there more than once and make it a point to eat here when I am in Lubeck (which is several…read moretimes per year). Food is wonderful and the service is great and they accommodate my lack of German.

A little find on the search for hot food for lunch…read more Small establishment with eat in available and also takeaway. I opted for takeaway. My first venture I decided for to try the vegetarian peanut curry. This was served with rice and very tasty with not a piece of Tofu in sight (not that it said there was which is why I opted for it). My second visit (the very next day) I went for Thai soup with soup really being their focus (hence the name!!). Having remembered me from the previous day, they were ahead of me with my requirements. Notably, they do have a good range of soups available and even give calorie details for them! Only down side for this restaurant is that there is no English menu. I looked them up and translated what I wanted from their website and then went to order. Whilst their English was very good, I wouldn't want them to have to run through the menu for me. However, this is typical of Hamburg at the moment, I'm hoping one day for more English menus to be available in restaurants/cafes. I had assumed that I would have to warm the soup up when I got back to the office as I tend to find takeaway hot food is not really so hot! But no! The soup was piping hot still which was great. It did slow my eating somewhat, but in a good way! and they give a little bread roll to help soak up the last bits. Service was quick so queue does go down quickly if you encounter this. I'm very pleased with this discovery.

Was really looking forward to eating here. But what a disappointment. The woman behind the counter…read morewas extremely rude and not helpful to show me the vegetarian soups. The soup was a bit too salty for me, but the bad experience at the counter just ruined my lunch. I was hoping that this would be my go too place as there are not very many veggie options in this town.

In a one week business trip to Hamburg, I ate green lovers four times: once with a coworker, once…read moreas catering for a team meeting, and twice on my own. So I guess you could say I'm a fan of this place! And I'm clearly not the only fan, as there was a lunch line every time I visited (various times between noon and 1:30). But not to worry, the line moves quite fast and you'll be eating lunch before you know it. There are various salad and soup options available, or you can create a custom salad by pointing at ingredients at the counter. I quickly learned how to say the various parts of my order in German (mixed salad, egg, beans, corn, mushrooms, tomato, parmesan cheese, balsamic dressing), though most of the staff is pretty fluent in English. Visiting from SF where a custom lunch salad can easily cost $14, the prices here (around 5-8 euros for a custom salad, depending on what you put in it) seem very reasonable. There's some indoor seating but it's pretty packed at lunch, so you may want to plan to take your meal elsewhere. Though if you do manage to get a seat and are dining alone, not to worry, they have free wi-fi! Healthy, fresh, fast, and reasonably priced, this is a great antidote to the heaviness and grease typically associated with German food.

I was surprised to see a concept like green lovers here in Hamburg. It reminded me of Mixt Greens…read morein San Francisco. The menu includes suggested salads, a make-your-own salad option, soups, and panini. All of the salads are made fresh when you order. I went with the falafel veggie salad special they had advertised on the counter with the green lovers dressing (herbs, lemon, olive oil). It had a great balance of ingredients and a nice hummus on top. Definitely a fan. Service was also surprisingly friendly despite the lunch rush. Again, other than that whole ordering in German part, I felt like I had just walked through a portal to Mixt Greens in downtown SF. The only downside is that the space is a little tight and is pretty much packed by 12:30pm. If you'd like a place to sit and don't mind getting bumped into every so often, I'd aim for right before noon and stick to parties of 2. The line always moves fast and they offer takeout, so that could be a good plan B if you happen to arrive after half of Hamburg's workforce has.
