ALEX Kassel in Kassel

Very friendly staff, quick but not intrusive. Very good coffee, good atmosphere. We'd love to come back

They mix a delicious gin and tonic. The service is very attentive and friendly despite the stress so close to Christmas

Delicious drinks and a pleasant atmosphere! One of the few restaurants open late - very convenient. One star deducted because the waiter who served us used too much perfume. It was so strong that you could hardly breathe 😅. I think that the smell, like work clothes, should remain neutral.

Great team. Very attentive despite stress. Hopefully there's enough Christmas bonus. 😏 Happy Holidays!

Unfortunately, not only was the hot chocolate not hot, but only lukewarm. The rump steak with Mediterranean vegetables and herb potatoes wasn't hot either. Everything was also poor in terms of taste. In the Caesar salad you also had to look for all the components except the lettuce with a magnifying glass. In terms of price, however, everything was on the upper side. We had an ugly burger, the steak, bruschetta and the salad as well as three drinks for around 83 euros. Definitely not recommended!

Cool atmosphere. Real mint in tea is very tasty!!!!! Despite the stress, the service was quick. Very friendly .

Nice atmosphere, friendly service and food 🍴 was also 👌 ok. The renovation was really successful.

We visited the restaurant with friends. I would like to highlight that the interior is very beautiful. We came to try desserts and they were really incredibly delicious! Unfortunately, the five cups of cappuccino we ordered were very bitter and we didn't like the coffee. Still, it's a really nice place to hang out with friends

Overall a very nice place. The staff is sometimes slow and argues in front of the guests but otherwise ok. The breakfast is okay for the price. The positive thing is that you get a lot of alcohol in the morning. The ambience is appropriate and doesn't seem like it's a place. But the acoustics could still be worked on.

A place where you feel comfortable It's always a pleasure to be at Alex in Kassel. I especially love the coffees, simply excellent! But the food is also convincing: every dish has its own charm and is perfect in its own way. Even something like a currywurst is a highlight. A small point of criticism: The hamburger, which tastes really great, was presented a bit simply on the plate, something more could be done. P/L Nevertheless, we can only warmly recommend Alex! The friendly and attentive staff make every visit a pleasant experience. We're always happy to come back!

I think the food there is excellent and tastes very tasty. In terms of price, it's okay whether it's breakfast or lunch. There's something for everyone. Price is technically okay. Food would always be nice. Very child-friendly, there's also something for children I can only recommend it.

If I had the opportunity to travel back in time, I would rather throw my 66 euros in the trash or give it to a homeless person instead of spending it on two burgers, a portion of nuggets and four drinks at Alex Burger. I've never eaten anything so disgusting! The meat was obviously a frozen patty, the arugula was mushy, and overall it tasted like it was meant for dogs. It's unbelievable that so much money was invested in renovating the shop and then such poor quality is served. Anyone who says the food there is good has probably never tasted really good food in their life. It looked terrible - and that's exactly how it tasted. I would have liked to tell the waiter what I thought, but no one bothered to ask. One thing is certain for me: I will never eat at this place again and I won't recommend any of my friends to go there either.

Cozy, rustic restaurant with a rich breakfast buffet, which really leaves nothing to be desired. Friendly person, looking for in times of stress. However, due to this good service, it is recommended to order in advance. As a single person you always get a place, but with several it becomes difficult. The price-performance ratio is also good.

The ALEX Restaurant in Kassel is part of a popular restaurant chain known for its relaxed atmosphere and diverse menus. It is located on Obere Königsstraße, right next to the busy Friedrichsplatz. The restaurant offers a wide range of dishes including breakfast, soups, salads, tarte flambée, schnitzel, burgers and pasta. For families there is also a special menu for children. Guests can sit both inside and outside and watch the hustle and bustle of the pedestrian zone ;)

I waited 30 millimeters for a drink...

I was at Eich's for cocktails and they were about twice as many hours late as the DB has in a year. bottomless impudence. and then all 3 drinks at different times???? cheekiness. Overall, I'll never go here again. (also smelled a bit like grandma)

My visit to. Alex was spontaneous. Despite the full house during the evening service, we quickly got a seat. Drinks and food service were received quickly and served quickly. Excellent in taste. Clear recommendation!

Lots of choice of food and drinks. Service is very friendly. The background noise is very busy but not unpleasant.

We always enjoy being here! The food is tasty and the service is always at its best. In our opinion, people work here who love their job and do what is possible with full commitment.  Sometimes there's just something wrong with it and things don't go as planned (who doesn't know that?). See you next time!

Thank you for the great service, Johan! Employees like this make the difference. I would definitely like to come back!

I wait 30 minutes for still water, I asked a waiter, he says the place is full, the receipt is full at the counter, please keep waiting to see if all my friends have finished drinking 😂

Visited ALEX at Fruedrichsplatz in Kassel. Everything is great! Johan served us and we were absolutely satisfied. Lots of love for you, Johan.

Unfortunately there is a new slimmed down menu. I was looking for my beloved, delicious food for free.

Was just there again yesterday and as always very happy with everything. The service staff was very friendly and the food was also very good. Feel free to come

The two of us spontaneously went to Sunday brunch without a reservation. The employee at the entrance was friendly and was able to find us an adequate table. Despite the high crowds on Sunday morning, the staff was very attentive and friendly. The buffet was rich and the quality of the food was, in my opinion, good and plentiful. All in all, the Sunday brunch is recommended.

Good selection at the buffet (cold and warm). Fresh fruit, muesli, scrambled eggs, fried eggs, fresh croissants, in short: something for everyone! Family friendly atmosphere. The service had its eyes everywhere. Introduced himself with his first name (Dirk). Very personable and accommodating. I will definitely make a reservation again and try the cocktails.

Nice atmosphere and a nice cafe. Ms. Zahra, who looked after us, tried very hard to make our time here pleasant.”

I went to have a burger with a friend today. Everything tasted super delicious. The seating outside is totally comfortable and you can stay for a long time even in cool temperatures. Our waiter, I think his name was Johann, was super friendly and rounded off your visit perfectly. We would love to come back!

Delicious breakfast and always busy. Sometimes it's just a bit tight at the breakfast buffet.

The food was very good on the second attempt. It was cold on the first try. But it was replaced without any problems. The service was good, friendly and attentive. We just had to wait a bit to pay. The atmosphere is cozy but a bit cool. Some warmer clothing is recommended. Overall it was a pleasant evening, we will come back.

Centrally located. A wonderful breakfast buffet and the service was also great. The large windows allow you to enjoy what's around you, but even when you're talking to each other, we didn't think we were presented too obviously. I think it's important to mention that dogs are allowed! 🐶 Here too, the service looked for an alternative place so that you don't have to sit in the middle with your dog.

The bad reviews are incomprehensible to me. Nice cozy atmosphere, nice staff. We like to go to Alex when we are in Kassel Absolute recommendation: veggie tarte flambée

Brunch is perfect! Food overall very good but service very bad! Wait a long time for waiter then wait for order and also very slow when it comes to payment... That was last year Now a new review I've been sitting for 25 minutes. I ordered beer, my friend ordered cake and a coffee, he's already eaten cake, I still haven't received my beer, heavy!!!

Great store, great atmosphere, but above all great service! Andrena served us and she understands what constitutes first-class service. Great specialist staff is hard to find, thank you for your kind! We had a lovely evening!

Probably the place for work-shy people in labor

The two of us went to ALEX for lunch today and everything was just perfect. We both ordered the ALEX Pastrami sandwich with steak fries and red cole slaw, the quality of the pastrami was very good, the combination with fried egg, pickled cucumber, lettuce, tomatoes and the various sauces was perfect, the fries were crispy and very well seasoned, the cole slaw is absolutely delicious. We think the price-performance ratio is absolutely reasonable. The service was very friendly, warm and attentive in all areas. Thanks for the nice time. :)

The brunch buffet offers a wide selection, from jam to lunch, there is something for every taste and is also very tasty. Service friendly and quick. I can only recommend it.

This restaurant, which is located in the middle of the city of Kassel, is highly recommended 👌 I spontaneously went there for dinner with my daughter in the middle of the week in the evening! Food (international offer) came quickly 👍 and the service was top;-) the prices were okay too!

Food and drinks were very good! However, the service could be more courteous and faster.

We went to Alex for breakfast for the second time. The buffet buffet was everything you could expect for this price and even a little more. I do have one small point of criticism, however. If you get rolls/bread and put them on your plate, you have to get a second one for the side dishes and possibly a third to top them with. Wouldn't it be possible to put a bread basket at the buffet that you can take to the table? Otherwise we were very satisfied guests again today :-)

The hotspot in Kassel is bad. Delicious coffee in a cozy atmosphere – perfect for a short break.

More comfortable after the renovation than before. What particularly struck me: the staff is exceptionally friendly

I love going there and it's always good

Very tasty and great atmosphere!

I can say that it was great, it was a comfortable environment, we were satisfied.

I went to ALEX today and was really impressed. The service, a tall young waiter, was on point, I was served promptly. After emptying the glass, he asked without seeming intrusive whether I was satisfied or whether I had any further wishes. I was satisfied and will come back on my next visit to Kassel. However, the outside area left an unpleasant impression, plastic packaging, cigarette butts, dirt under the tables (dirt trap) and what I rate as a "no-go" is when organized columns of beggars infest the outside area and the guests sometimes scrounge at families while eating and the service of the House can't get it under control. All in all good and I'll be back. Greeting.

Drinks: Cocoa and white chocolate tasted good and were warm. Despite specifically ordering without cream, one of the two drinks was brought with cream. Ambiance: The furnishings look good, but little noise-damping aspects have been taken into account. At times the loud background noise is extremely disturbing and you notice that you have to communicate not only loudly and clearly, but almost shouting with the people at the same table. Service: After the order could be placed relatively quickly, we waited about 35 minutes for two warm drinks. When it was then noted that the cream on one drink had been expressly canceled, but that it was now OK, the response was relatively cheeky that only the other drink had been ordered without cream, which is simply wrong. Especially on Sundays, the Alex Kassel gives the impression that it is understaffed in service, which leads to extreme stress for the waiters. Some processes do not seem to be well coordinated, for example that only one waiter can apparently handle the payment process at a table and his colleague has to find the first one and inform them that a table wants to pay. Why can't every colleague simply process payment? Searching and getting information costs the waiters time, which only puts them under even more pressure. Drinking a drink on a leisurely Sunday is more possible in other corners of Kassel.

You have to drink a beer sometimes when you're not thirsty 🥷

The location is what makes it, the ambience is rather mediocre, the place is too loud. The drinks come fairly quickly, but you sometimes have to wait over half an hour for food

Hello, we went shopping in Kassel on October 4th, 2024 and ended up at ALEX at some point, in a nutshell. Cleanliness was top👍🏽, service was top👍🏽, staff were friendly, nice, courteous, polite. . . top👍🏽, food top👍🏽location top 👍🏽overall package top👍🏽, we'll be happy to come back. Kind regards.

- loud - Service slow - expensive

As always, the order takes a long time. But the food tastes good.

We went there due to a sudden hunger strike, we decided to enter Alex Kassel where we sat down and started to consult the very varied menu of the place, but when ordering at 1pm the boy told us that the kitchen was closed because it's breakfast time, stunned by the answer, we decide to take 3 crossaint with Nutella and 3 cappuccinos, after 20 minutes when the waiter arrives completely without any warning he serves us 3 croissants with jam. Croissant still half frozen and cappuccino with burnt milk. Shocked without eating and drinking Enraged by the poor service we ask for the bill of €25.50 despite the real bill amounting to €18, explaining this to the waiter he apologizes and makes us pay 18 by canceling the receipt (in short paid illegally) ALEX = JOKE+ AMONG THE WORST BARS IN CARACAS I wish you a speedy closure

We tried two ice cream variations there. I can say something different, the variants were great with chips and peanuts. Would love to come back.

It's always nice there, but this time there were long waiting times to order again, that can happen. We're going back anyway.

Kasra from the staff is an extremely friendly and competent gentleman! I always preferred to order my Apperol from him for a cozy evening.

I was very happy with the service and the food! I particularly noticed a blonde waiter who was very polite and nice. I can only recommend Alex!!

We waited 30 minutes for service and in the end decided to go somewhere other than the tables that came and were served faster than ours. Scandal! There wasn't enough going on to justify it

Central location. Fast and friendly service.

Great restaurant, good food, nice service, worth a visit 👍

We were warned that the cocktails would take longer. All good then. However, the waiters were more busy admiring their muscles in the mirror than taking new orders. That's annoying.

Quality is okay but quite small quantities for hefty prices...

We sat outside for easily 30 minutes without being served. Finally, the unmotivated waiter came to our table and took our order. I had a few extra wishes about the food. His blunt answer was "I don't know if that will work. Otherwise you will get your food as it is on the menu" and walked away. The food came BEFORE the drinks. I've NEVER experienced anything like that. In the end I paid by card. The waiter was still at our table and was probably waiting for a tip. But for what? For this terrible service? Food was OK. But way too expensive.

After the renovation, really nice and comfortable. Service has improved dramatically. Food and drink quality is always convincing.

Delicious food and drinks. Nice service. In summer you can sit outside very well and have a beautiful view. Only recommended! I've visited it quite often.

Went there to drink cocktails. Standard cocktails were good. Prices are still reasonable, cheap if you catch the happy hours.

The breakfast is very good! There is something for everyone! The only point deduction is for the fruit salad, which tasted very artificial! The decoration is too busy! There are pretty things there, but too many and mixed up! But it's a matter of taste 😉

Food is really good, but unfortunately the service is not that good. You don't check whether you still want drinks, or you don't see that the drinks are empty. You just clear away and don't ask if you want something more to drink.

I just had a drink today to get to know the shop again and it was really nice

Great, I can only recommend it🙌🏻

Service is very good. Food very tasty. The ambience is cozy and invites you to linger. When choosing from the cards, everyone will find the right one. The only small point of criticism is that the wheat beer should be served in a glass that has been rinsed with cold, clear water. (Tip from a Bavarian)

I was there with my girlfriend last night and at first we weren't served for 10-15 minutes. I even had to wave to a waiter to come to us first. And when the waiter took our order, he forgot to write down my friend's order, even though she had made herself clear. In any case, I won't come here anymore.

Unfortunately we were very disappointed with our visit to your café. The service was unfriendly, rude and arrogant. After waiting over half an hour for our drinks, we politely asked where they were. To our surprise, we were asked to leave the cafe by a waiter with glasses and long curly hair. Such behavior is completely inappropriate in the catering industry. We had the impression that this employee was not suitable for the service area.

Went there to have a beer for lunch, being Germany and all. I had a waiter yell at me in front of all the other customers. Paid my bill and left. Sad thing is o always bring family and friends over that visit me here in Kassel. Not anymore.

I like going to Alex, they have a nice atmosphere and nice treats.

We were very hungry and waited for food for almost an hour. When the food came, it was so oily you couldn't eat it. Teriyaki chicken was just soggy and didn't taste like anything. €20 per person and we left ¾ there... The pictures on the menu look much tastier than the food itself.

Totally unfriendly reception. It was raining and you were yelled at because you put a chair 5cm in the direction of the umbrella. Not recommended. There are much more pleasant and friendly bars in Kassel.

Waiters very nice and attentive and a great location 🙂👍

8/23/2024: ADDENDUM TO ALEX'S ANSWER. DEAR OWNER, 95% I DIDN'T LIKE IT! AND WAS ELSE TOO....! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND ME ; OR CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND ME? DID I MAKE THE COMPLAINT+PICTURES TOO GENTLE? DON'T WORRY, I'LL HARDLY COME BACK. SOMETIMES A CHANGE OF POSITION AND CAREER WILL HELP. IT'S AMAZING HOW YOU TRANSFORMED MY CRITICISM, SO NOT MUCH WILL CHANGE FOR YOU. HELLO YOUR EX-CUSTOMER 3rd VISIT ON 8/21/24! FORGOT TO READ THE CURRENT CUSTOMER REVIEW! THE MEDIUM RIB EYE STEAK COMES QUICKLY AND A STRONG **FISH SMELL**COMES WITH IT. THE MEAT TASTES SOUR, IS CHEEPY AND fried. THE COLORFUL SALAD ARE >95% GREEN SMALL PIECES, LOTS OF STRINKS AND LEFTOVERS, LIKE FROM THE BAG. THE HERB QUARK LOOKS LIKE ACID METHYL CELULOSE (WALLPAPER). IT SMELLS AND TASTES LIKE THAT. MICROSCOPIC SMALL GREEN DOTS PROBABLY BE THE HERBS. THE WHOLE FOOD IS FLOATING IN HARDENED OIL AND FAT. JUST STICK THE COMPOSITION OF YOUR GOURMET READY MEALS INTO THE MENU. FOR QUARK THERE SHOULD BE >20. THE WAITER DON'T WANT TO KNOW IF I LIKED IT. EVEN WITHOUT TIP HE WAS ALLOWED TO LISTEN TO MY COMPLAINT. A CLOUD OF URINE COMES FROM THE DISABLED TOILET, A LAKE OF URINE IN FRONT OF THE TOILET SEAT, NO DISINFECTANT FOR THE TOILET SEATS OR HANDS. 15MIN AFTER EATING VERY STRONG HEARTBURN THAT CAN ONLY BE STOPPED WITH ACID BUFFER. CONVENIENCE PRODUCTS AT THE LEVEL OF GOURMET DOCUMENTS! Congratulations, YOU have the best “GERMAN KITCHEN” in Kassel.

The food was ok except for the fact that the napkin was pressed into the dessert. Drinks arrived after 20 minutes, an iced tea was not served despite asking. Not highly recommended. Too bad.

Everything okay. Good location but ALEX prices and convenient food. Can be made for a drink.

Chicken teriyaki inedible, and no chicken to be found. Vegetables tasted bitter. Service was at least nice and quick.

Always friendly service and a rich breakfast buffet. Why all the outside tables by the window are always reserved at 10 a.m. (and no one comes) will remain a secret to the management

The new chairs in the outdoor area are so unbelievably uncomfortable... when heavy people sit in them, the seat cushions deform deep down and you sit in them like a farmer. You really scored your own goal with that

If you couldn't give a star, I would. Last night we were treated so disrespectfully by the waiter. I drank a Coke Zero and a Jim Beam with my friend. When we wanted to pay another waiter (who hadn't taken our order) came and said a bill for 22.80. When I pointed out to him that we only had a Coke Zero and Jim Beam he immediately said "No, there's more on the table here, if you can't pay then don't come here." Are you crazy? I have never experienced such disrespect. The waiter who took our order then clarified the situation. A waiter like that has no place in the restaurant industry! Alex, never again!!!!!!! I also work in the catering industry, if you haven't picked up a table, you have to ask whether the drinks and food on the table are correct! This is what we call professional service staff, because it can always happen that you accidentally left a table unchecked! But as a colleague in the catering industry, I have absolutely no understanding for such sayings!!!

The service is friendly and quick. The food is delicious. We would like it if there were a few more vegetables with the schnitzel. The portions are plentiful. The toilets are OK. It would be nice if the window sills were cleaned of dust and cobwebs and there were towels in addition to the hand dryer.

The guest room was fundamentally and tastefully remodeled. Nice ambience. We enjoyed the rich breakfast buffet.

Steak wasn't good at all and I got the wrong dish twice which didn't taste good either 😅 Service takes too long and then something like that... it was twice because now there were always errors in the orders...

Really chic after the renovation. Great service with an overview even though it's packed! And you will still be served with a smile. Gladly again!

A nice café/restaurant in the center of Kassel, warmly welcomed and served, thank you!

The good service is definitely no longer there. It's a shame when the staff is so reduced that the customers have to suffer 30 minutes until my order was taken (3 drinks) and then waited another 35 minutes for it. Many guests simply got up and left and asked 3-4 times if they could pay and no one came for 45 minutes

I really enjoy going to Café Alex to have a cocktail or a coffee, but I'm slowly but surely finding the prices no longer affordable. I understand that everything has become more expensive and you also have to pay salaries and ongoing costs somewhere... However, I don't understand why they charge €6.10 for a dish that costs around 40 cents in material costs (excluding working time)... I find it very cheeky... In any case, the bruschetta will no longer be there in the future... However, coffee and lemonades or cocktails are great and the burgers are also highly recommended.

We had breakfast there today with the entire family, the waiters outside were constantly annoyed and unfriendly. The breakfast was delicious, but service staff outside 👎. To top it off, we were charged extra because we hadn't ordered it at all & when we asked about it, the answer was again annoyed as described above & we would have ordered it that way. We left it like that and left.

Nice to stay in the city center. We didn't eat anything, but we could see great food and satisfied guests at the neighboring tables. Cocktails and coffee were served in a friendly and quick manner and we also asked how we were. Thank you

We were warmly welcomed and well served by the friendly staff. The food was super tasty, everything was very fresh. We will be back definitely.

Mega delicious food and beautiful location.

Midden in het centrum, leuk ingericht, vriendelijke bediening, van traagheid niets meer te merken en echt heerlijk!!! eten. Wij komen terug als we in de buurt zijn.

After some New Year's Eve celebrations in Kassel and many happy visits to Kassel, Hamburg, Dresden and others, we will say goodbye to ALEX Kassel baw! The service is not coordinated, as only 1 person takes orders and several people deliver the orders for a table very slowly. For example, my Altbier came to the table warm after two stays on other tables and touched by other guests; disgusting - an absolute no go! Where is the problem with entering or reading the table number on the receipt when the order is delivered? This was often the case - the cappuccino and our food also made several rounds until they reached our table! The price-performance ratio has also decreased significantly! Charging €7.40 for a measly portion of sweet potato fries with mayo borders on outrageous! We can no longer recommend ALEX since the renovation! Sorry, there is still a lot of room for improvement.......

Waited forever at the beginning, no waiter wanted to take an order. On the tables outside there were quite a few empty glasses from other guests who had long since left. It had also rained and the tables were covered in water. But nobody was interested in that either. They haven't been cleaned off. I had to speak to three waiters before anyone even took an order. The beer wasn't served, I had to remind the waiter. Then a lukewarm wheat beer was placed on the table for 5.20 euros. When I wanted to pay, I spoke to a waiter again. But he wasn't interested in that, he just cleaned up the tables. This was by far the worst restaurant I have ever visited. Never again!

2 stars instead of 1 star especially for the service, very friendly and attentive. We ordered waffles and it was a disaster. Finished waffles were toasted and served to us... disgusting! Everything used to be better, before the renovation...
