The Bird - The crazy clock at the bird - Burgers Near Me - Berlin, BE

We had a party of 10 and they forgot one of our order so that person had to watch everyone eat for 20 minutes before starting his own. The place also doesn't take credit card so be forewarned that it can be a pain if you need to pay for a large party. Bring a huge wad of cash, preferably rolled up in rubber bands for dramatic effect. As for the food, it is alright. Average American style burger without the proper buns, so the meat and veggie content slide ever which way as you chom through it. Not a good place for a first date probably unless you want to impress your date by wearing your food. read more

The Bird - Ghetto deleux - Burgers Near Me - Berlin, BE

This is my favorite burger. I don't care what anyone says. I have eaten burgers all over the world and this is my happy place. I came here once three years ago and have dreamed about it since; came back recently and it was just as I remembered. I have to imagine that people who don't like it either went to other locations (I wouldn't take any chances) or just have different preferences. This burger is JUICY. Falls apart while you eat it. I get "Da Birdhouse" and it's just big and drippy and delicious. You just have to grab it buy the hands and get your face all the way up in it. Open wide because it's big! Expect it all over your face and hands and just enjoy it uninterrupted (I would suggest going solo or with someone else who is similarly sensual for this reason). They keep a roll of paper towels on the table for that reason, so don't be afraid. Get it with a draft beer and just chill out. Believe me when I say I'm jealous of anyone about to eat this! read more

Oh my lord. The best burger of my life! Helpful and happy staff, good beer selection, and really, again, amazing burgers. The only drawback was the sound level of the music, which was super loud and very heavy, which made it a bit difficult to have a conversation without shouting. But I was having a passionate date with my burger, so it didn't really matter. read more

So, apparently the Bird is the place to be for American Transplants in Berlin. Specifically, they claim to serve the best burger this side of the Atlantic. Shame I didn't have our resident London Yelping Burger Kings Andrew and Grant with me to pass judgement! I'll try my best to come to my own conclusions then. We started with some bloody marys and wings- wings were flipping delicious, marching that beautiful crispy, yet swelling with sauce line. Bloody Marys... well I always feel sad that they are not Caesars. That's all I could say about Bloody Marys. Theirs were good. They were just not Caesars! Now the main act of burger. My sister and I shared the Birdhouse which was delicious. A bit fally-a-party (which TBH since they make such a frakking fuss about us using cutlery and cussing us on the menu should be less difficult to eat) but a perfect goo of mince meat and american cheese with awesome bacon and good home fries (a mix of skinny and fat chips). Only caveat I have is that the salad bits could be better and more flavourful. Just Sayin'. Overall a good experience. Saw some good action with a family (who were all so mardy, but then perked up with their mega soakers) getting banned from the restaurant and loads of hipsters by the truckload. I'd advise you to share. Those burgers are Massive! As in we had 2 burgers between 4 and we didn't finish. Our friends had one each and barely made a dent in their plates. read more

The Bird is a no bullshit hands-on experience suitable for serious burger connoisseurs. I read a number of reviews before going here with my girlfriend but when the food arrived I was very impressed! Two massive juicy beef patties wedged between american cheese, onions on an english muffin (interesting choice). Perfect tasting burger with an awesome selection of local German beer on tap. Highly recommend if you are looking to tackle this savage beast of a burger! read more

The Bird @Falkplatz is one of the hottest burger joints I know. Always crowded, every day, (a bit too) loud music and a rustic interior = great atmosphere. The burgers are massive! 250g-300g of premium steak quality meat is used for the Burgers, which gives the patties an unparalleled smoothness, since most Burger joints use lower grade meat for mincing. The Bird is not afraid of preparing their burgers rare if you ask for it. The fries are amazing, thick, soft goodness. Burgers are served with english muffins. I recommend starting with their delicious hot wings, even though chiliheads will shed a tear when ordering napalm, but a dip in the HEAVENLY blue cheese dressing and the pain goes away. I love how the waiters are either American friendly trucker'isc, young british/spanish girls or the cool Berlin neighbour. This flavorful mix of food and people makes "The Bird @Falkplatz" a unique experience, while I am in Berlin, I come here once a week. You should, too. Oh and don't forget to make a reservation, yes even tuesday nights. read more

The Bird - Super Hot buffalo wings with Tapatio and the birds home made blue cheese sauce - Burgers Near Me - Berlin, BE

See all

This place is burger heaven. Tried two different burgers here on two separate visits - and both were beyond incredible. The patty was probably over an inch thick, and cooked exactly as I requested both times. Be aware if you like your burgers well done like I do, they'll resist a bit, but they'll honor your request. And honestly, even well done, their burgers have tons of flavor. I think The Bird wins the prize for the best burger of all time - at least in my burger experiences so far. Atmosphere is a pub-like very casual vibe, with indoor seating, and some outdoor tables. They also serve some great beers. This place gets really busy, although fortunately, I didn't have to wait on either visit. I highly recommend this place if you appreciate an awesome burger. read more

I was taken here tonight by a friend of mine. I had never heard of Bird's before he suggested we go there. I ordered a breakfast burger which came with an egg sunny side up and bacon. It was served on an English muffin which was a very nice touch. All the ingredients were top quality. They've got a nice selection of beers as well. None of the American crap either this is real German beer. It seems like this place is also a big hit with the local super fashion crowd and posh neighbours. It is definitely on the expensive side for Berlin, 9-12 euros for a burger with fresh fries. read more

After talking up the service, our last visit with some American friends started disastrously. Sitting at the bar for the happy hour special, we could not get a drink for 10 minutes as the bartenders chatted to each other, entered other people's orders to the pos, and generally flitted about. Beer please! Service vastly improved when the 2 regular bartenders came in - Rachel & the guy with the great tattoos. Thanks y'all. Another annoyance, the food happy hour deal is only for napalm wings. This can be a little unclear at times. On top of that - when we tried to order these with a side of the dipping sauce she told us that wasn't an option. What?! We can't pay for a side of sauce? She seemed confused herself & really unhelpful so we just gave up on food & drank. So not all bad, right? read more

A steak and burger place that goes the extra mile to be authentic -- paper towel rolls on the table so you can eat the burger with your hand, menu with sass, and real dill pickles for the burgers (as well as, in my case, a friendly, efficient American waiter). I had a cheese and bacon burger and it was good. Not knock-your-socks-off great, but good. I questioned the use of an english muffin instead of a hamburger bun and was told that German buns fall apart. Hmm. I still question it. And the bacon wasn't quite American-style bacon. Given the obvious consideration put into other elements, maybe they could at least consider offering a premium bun for 50 cents more that actually IS a bun. The patty itself was also easily more than inch thick, which may be too much meat for some and makes getting a bite into your mouth awkward. Thickness of the meat is a matter of debate in the States, as well, so no points off for that -- just personal preference. I was told that the house burger comes with two thinner patties, so next time I will see if I can get a single patty alone. And, I will be going back, because it was a darn decent burger and in Berlin, that's saying something. The decor is casual, and noisy, but to an American looking for a burger, will feel exactly right. Squint just right and you could be in a good burger joint somewhere on a back road. read more

They serve a pretty mean steak here. Supposedly it's Angus beef from MN, which you can't get anywhere else (correct me if I am wrong) and which is very pricey (~12 EUR/100g), and probably the best steak I've had in Europe to date. Meat-wise, if you know Luger's in NYC -- The Bird comes very close. It could be closer if the sides were better and the place had a bit more style, which is where Luger's primarily excels. ;-) The sides I got with my steak (fries and spinach) were OK, but not spectacular. Nothing particulary wrong with them besides the sauce. I absolutely wouldn't recommend using their steak sauce because that's a pure waste if you put it on this fine meat. Anyway, if you're in the mood for steak -- there really is no better place in this city. I can't comment on the Burgers or whatever else they have, but the steak is beyond good. I know some folks who go there at least once a month because it's so good. You just gotta be able to afford it, I guess. Besides the food, The Bird is a pretty convenient East-Coast type of bar. No western glory. ;-) The waiters were nice and also pretty informal. The place looks always crowded and busy so you better get a reservation. read more

After a year of being a vegetarian, I chose The Bird to be my first burger to "break the habit". We actually never intended to get here - we tried a few places in the area which were either closed or unavailable, and then ran into an acquaintance who said "oh, The Bird's got the best burgers in Berlin!". So, off we went. The Bird is run by americans who have little patience for german mannerisms ("at least TRY to eat it with your hands!") and serve a rather non-standard american burger - somewhere between a Steakburger and a Sloppy Joe. This was the best burger I've had in ages and certainly a more-than-respectable return to an omnivore's diet. There's photographic evidence to prove I was here (and was stuffing my face), but it's probably best if I don't share those :) Highly recommended, I surely intend to come back - and soon! read more

Best Burger's in Berlin! Yum Yum, make a reservation if you want to eat good...

When we arrived at 10:30pm, the place was packed to the gills. We put our name on the waiting list (didn't realize we could have gotten a reservation) and had a drink next door at the Mexican restaurant (which was very good). They called us 25 minutes later (much shorter wait than we thought) and we went back and were served cold beer (by a very nice waitress) within minutes. We all ordered burgers and they arrived only 15 minutes later. I mean, the burgers are good and the fries are hand cut, but there is nothing so special about the food. It's good, it's not memorable. I would not go back to The Bird, but I don't regret going there in the first place. read more

This place ROCKS!!!! Staff is friendly food is AWESOME vibe is fun day or night.. Super super super read more

I was craving a really good, juicy, cheesy, mushroom burger that I never seemed to be able to find in Berlin. To cut things short, these guys probably have the best burger patties in Berlin. Only 'Burgermeister' is a close contender, but that said The Bird does a better job when it comes to portion size. Deducting one star for the fries. It's homemade, but that's nothing to brag about given the way they made it - at least in the two times I visited. They were a bit oily and soggy. Perhaps they should get better potatoes. read more

Okay bad things first. It was okay for me personally the english muffin was too small for the actual patty and my burger just fell apart as I ate it.. Had the ginger ale and erm it tasted very watered down and kinda gross lol. If you need to use the bathroom erm.. just go somewhere else. Chicken wings (my mom got mild and I had some of hers) weren't that great. Now for the good things. Service was fantastic. THE CHICKEN TENDERS WERE A 10/10 AMAZING. The fries were tasty but oddly small though and kinda cold. read more

Place is pretty good. The steaks on the rock were amazing. Also the dried steak on rock was phenomenal. I had the giant burger but it was bland I don't like wasting food so it all went down believe it or not. Wish I was in Germany longer but had to pleasure of dining here. read more

The Dirty Harry burger was excellent, but the fries were not that amazing - they were partly soggy. It took ages until we were served and then they got it partly wrong and some people in our group had to wait another 20 or so minutes until they could finally eat. The music was too loud for my liking, it was difficult to talk. A request to turn down the volume a bit was refused with an excuse which went something like we're not sound specialists, we're here to serve you food and drinks. Otherwise the service was friendly enough, but the place was obviously under-staffed. read more

Please don't go here if you are vegetarian. I just went with friends because they wanted meat, and sure, The Bird has a veggie burger, but they HATE when you order it :D I don't blame them though, I would also think it was pretty stupid to go there as a vegetarian. (I'm stupid, I know) Every meat-lover loves this place. Period. Beware of the prices though. It's not exactly Berlin-average if you know what I mean. Feels like being in Stockholm. read more

**Best burgers and handmade fries in Berlin** American burger restaurant with big and greasy burgers and sides. High focus on quality meat which is cooked to perfection according to your prefence!

The Bird - Swiss and mushroom burger. Yummy - Burgers Near Me - Berlin, BE

Lovely and friendly staff. Specially good that they speak English fluently. I have only tried one of their burgers which I unfortunately do not remember which one (only once been there, July 2014) and I still remember the real MEAT taste of its Patty. Recommend to meat-lovers. read more

By far the best burger i have had in germany. The burgers are filled with Argentinian beef ground on the premises, the chips are handcut, this is pretty uncommon and worth every bite. It is all reasonable in price as the food is outstanding and you will not leave hungry. The booze does cost but again quality is high, and the varities of spirits (especially tequillas) are on display. It does get busy so plan in advance, see if you can reserve a table.If you drink at the bar there are often deals too. Staff are friendly, atmosphere great, music, what do you need. its authentic US and you are sure to meet locals and tourists alike. read more

Expensive burger for sure, but i would go so far as saying that they're the best in town ! the meat is real good, tasty, fresh, the french fries are good the burgers are original (many different sorts) Never tasted the steaks but i suppose they're as good. Good beers, including some rare ones that you cant find everywhere. Service is ok, but they kind of make you understand they want their tip, which is a bit annoying for so so expensive burgers (more than 10 euros, only the burger) read more

It really is the best burger in Town. The food is fresh. The Burger meat juicy. The Gonzales Burger was the choice of the evening with extra cheddar cheese. The service was fast and friendly. We had to wait a bit for the Burger but the place was packed. But it was worth the wait. We even got a round of shots as a small sorry. Nice to finally get a great service. You have to try the NY Cheesecake. best i have ever had. You definately get your moneys worth here. To finish a great night, another round of shots at the bar with the Restuarant Manager (Brett - great guy) thank you read more

Came in with a bunch of friends who hyped this place a lot. The hype did not disappoint. Most of the table got the bird house, two patties from the griddle with cheese LT mustard ketchup and bacon. Burger comes on an English muffin, had this a few times in New York and it's an interesting flip. Personally I'd prefer it on a regular sesame bun but it's ok to switch it up here and there. Burger medium, cause.. That's the way a burger should be. Some people on the table ordered medium rare which turned out medium well and medium well that turned out well done. This is why you always get medium. My burger was cooked perfectly. A fat patty with really crisp romaine lettuce, not iceberg (thank god), and juicy tomatoes. Fries were of the fresh cut variety. A bit too greasy and kind of soggy but nonetheless were delicious. Overall I'd give this place 4.5. I think if they had served my burger on a regular bun I'd def give this place a 5, even with my soggy fries (which I need to reiterate were delicious). Kind of hard to get a res but that makes sense considering the quality of this place. Def recommend, go! read more

This could be the best burger place in Berlin! I just love eating and drinking there with the friends

They've got my favorite beer on tap (Leff), great burgers and fantastic wings and chili cheese fries.

Now before anyone takes objection to what I am about to say about "The Bird" ... Do note, I made 2 separate attempts eating here. The first was horrible and to give the benefit of the doubt I went a second time ... it only got worse. I dont want to make the publication of bad dining experience that I could make regarding The Bird. It's not worth the time and effort for the establishment. I will just sum it up: - Staff: Either the most rude waiting staff on the planet or it's part of the "charm" of the place. That is for you to decide. If you like your waiter or waitress to ignore you or be downright insulting then this is your place to be. - Food: The burgers are hit or miss. The first time I went it tasted great, the second time it was undercooked, had no flavor and the mcmuffin style bun was saturated by mayonnaise. By no means the best burger in Berlin (in my opinion), your paying outrageous prices for small portions served by impatient staff. The blue cheese that was suppose to come with my burger tasted more like Mayo mixed with a "hint" of blue cheese dressing. The fries were not even cooked completely, literally raw on the inside. - Time: Simply stupid... I have no other word to describe it. nearly 50 mins to get served a burger and raw uncooked fries. On a unpacked evening. Look if your going to make people wait nearly an hour for their food at least make sure it's cooked properly. Hell offer a free beer or something, but for EUR15+ Euro meal per person, nobody should wait that long. Either figure out how to keep up with the pace or give people a heads up of the waiting time. - Location: The only good thing they have going for them. The local is a nice spot right off the park. The atmosphere inside is social and nothing negative (minus the staff). My suggestion is to pass on the Bird, you can get just as good food elsewhere in Berlin without the headache. The place has potential if they get a manager in the house that knows how to handle the staff. read more

For sure you cannot miss this famous burger place, I very much like the tasty burgers especially the filthy Harry is my favorite!

The best Steak and Burger House in Berlin. It is always full and you have to reserve a table for days beforehand. The audience is both young and old. Many tourists are also in "The Bird " eat the delicious food. The Da Bird House is my favorite burger. read more

Zwischen ein Hamburger von BK oder Mc und the bird, wähle ich sicherlich ein 1EUR aus den ersten beiden. Ein Burger mit Toasts ist kein Burger. Wen das Fleisch eher nach Hackfleisch aussieht und keiner Form hat, dann ist das kein Burger. Die verwendete Gemüse ist alles anderes als frisch und knackig. Man zahlt um die 10EUR dafür, es gibt nicht mal eine Servierte. Die Pommes sind richtig mit Öl gesättigt bis zum geht nicht mehr. Man kann hingehen um was zu trinken aber essen in the bird? Nie wieder! read more

Not impressed. The waitress was unfriendly and impatient. One burger came out dripping in grease, mixed w the muffin on top, it was a soggy and mushy mess. The other burger was bland and over-cooked. The 3 stars are for the atmosphere and sauces (white BBQ and blue cheese). They saved the fries. The wings were strangely sweet and tangy, not spicy like we ordered them, with way too much sauce. The chicken wings were tough w a super bland fried batter. Never would I go here, nor recommend it, unless your desperate and it's the only place that's open on that side of town. The mall of berlin food court had better burgers for half the price. read more

Really, absolutely amazing burger. We were seated immediately, served nicely and fast. The burgers were outstanding and the fries to die for. read more
