Augustiner im Bürgerbahnhof in Potsdam

A nice place to eat, Bavarian cuisine well done

The ambiance was without a doubt the best, and that's what it was. The food was rather average, nothing particularly special. They didn't serve farm-raised duck, and probably hadn't for a while. The staff were completely overwhelmed and seemed more like temporary workers. Waiters in lederhosen and dirndls would have been a nice eye-catcher, and a must-have in a Bavarian restaurant. The whole thing isn't really recommended!!!

Pros: Beautiful location, plenty of free parking, pleasant atmosphere, very fast, friendly staff Cons: Price/performance ratio €8.50 isn't reasonable for a small microwaved apple strudel, meaning a very hot apple inside and a cooler outer shell, and it's also hard. The small scoop of ice cream increases the price to €11. If it had been fresh, it would have been okay—but not for the microwaved stuff.

Rustic with modern charm. The location is beautiful and offers ample parking. The food is delicious and a bit pricey. Everything seems very clean. The staff was friendly, but dressed in casual clothes rather than work clothes and dirty from head to toe. It wasn't pleasant to see. Overall, I can recommend the restaurant, both inside and out.

Having passed by by chance a few weeks ago and found it interesting, we made the long journey from Berlin-Spandau today to see it up close. Let me just say it right away: we didn't regret the trip. Due to the temperatures, I opted for the sausage salad (without cheese 😜) and a non-alcoholic wheat beer; my companion chose half a duck and a shandy. The drinks were brought promptly; the food didn't take much longer and was brought by the young, very friendly, and ambitious staff. I sometimes call myself a "sausage salad specialist," so I can say that I've rarely eaten such a delicious sausage salad. The duck was also tender, juicy, and crispy enough; the red cabbage was also delicious, as were the dumplings. Conclusion: Good location, extremely friendly staff, and the food (as far as we ate it) was very tasty. We will definitely be back.

For a few weeks now, "Alt Bayern" (Old Bavaria) has been a large neon sign above the entrance. After today's visit, I know what it means. By the time the two seemingly overwhelmed and uncoordinated waitresses acknowledge newly arrived guests, or even proactively hand out the menu, you can truly grow old. We left our seats after half an hour and left. The outdoor area was three-quarters full... What a shame.

An ideal location for a restaurant, something of a 'tourist trap', the renovated station building next to the "Park Sanssouci" station is just a few minutes' walk from the "Posttor" to Sanssouci Park. Bavarian home-style cooking is served, prepared in the early 20th century by the gout-stricken and somewhat eccentric innkeeper Paul Ockhardt. Inside, there's an original station clock above the counter and dark wooden benches trimmed to look old. The Excellence Room with its coffered ceiling can be booked for family celebrations, etc. A corner room is to be converted into a kiosk, offering rolls and coffee in the morning. The covered terrace opposite the current station entrance can seat 120 guests, and the two outdoor areas can accommodate as many as 367 guests.

You say "grilled dishes" but don't have any. Okay. The sausages from the pan were still cold inside, maybe even raw. But no one cared for 20 minutes. Then I went to the waiter to pay the bill.

We had a big group dinner. Everything went very smoothly. Prompt services

Fast, friendly service. Good Bavarian cuisine, perfect service.

Food was fantastic. Pork knuckle was easily the best I’ve ever had. Beer was also excellent. This is a must go spot. I live in Berlin and will be coming back to Potsdam specifically for this place

Great atmosphere, delicious food, and excellent service! I was served by a very nice and polite gentleman. The Obazda (traditional pork sausage), wine, and especially the coffee were delicious.

Hopefully better next time...I stopped here on a bike ride. The beer garden is inviting in nice weather. As is often the case these days, there's a lack of staff. That's unfortunate. I waited over 40 minutes for my food, which was unfortunately below average. Very poorly presented, no salad garnish or anything like that. A shame...

A good restaurant. We arrived without a reservation as a group of twelve, and there were no problems eating, even though the establishment was practically full. The service was very good, especially Vittorio, an Italian waiter who speaks perfect Spanish and is very friendly. The food was excellent: the pork knuckle was exceptional, perfectly cooked inside and the crust was super crispy, the salads were perfect, and the apple strudel was delicious. Finding this restaurant was a success and a great idea. It has an outdoor terrace, but the temperature wasn't suitable for sitting outside; however, there were people eating there. 100% recommended.

Rustic brewery with very good beer and hearty cuisine.

Very personable and friendly service, quick preparation, and super delicious food! Highly recommended! :)

A Sobering Visit to the Augustiner at Sanssouci Station Unfortunately, my visit to the Augustiner at Sanssouci Station was a bitter disappointment. Upon arrival, the staff seemed disorganized: The employees seemed to wander around aimlessly, seemed to be at odds with one another, and their tone was anything but professional. A particularly unpleasant impression was created by the lack of hygiene of some employees – in particular, the dirty fingernails and the condition of one waiter's teeth were hard to miss. This raises questions about the hotel's overall cleanliness and commitment to quality. The ambiance actually had potential – centrally located, with a lovely terrace – but with this level of service, it was difficult to enjoy the stay. Unfortunately, it wasn't a place I would want to return to.

Really good German cuisine. The Augustiner beer is fantastic. The staff is always in a good mood!

Unfortunately we were very disappointed, the drinks tasted like syrup, it was much too thin... the food didn't taste good either...

Close to Sansussi...nice atmosphere. Good service

Sehr schade für den Namen „Augustiner“. Bis auf das Bier ist leider nichts zu empfehlen. Das Essen hat offensichtlich mit bayrischer Küche, oder überhaupt mit kochen, wenig zu tun. Wir haben mit 10 Personen verschiedene Gerichte bestellt. Leider ist kein Gericht zu bewerten, einfach nur sehr schlecht. Ein Essen mussten wir auch zurück gehen lassen, es war kalt und ungenießbar. Alles nicht liebevoll oder mit Leidenschaft hergerichtet, vom Geschmack ganz zu schweigen. Wir kennen die Augustiner anders, und sind immer gern zu Gast, aber das ist ein Beispiel für absolute Unfähigkeit. Sehr ärgerlich….

Between the golden pretzel and the heavenly Obatzda, time itself seemed to be silent while the beer flowed through me like a liquid psalm song.

Great service and inexpensive food

Delicious food, home cooking, super nice service

Food was good, reasonably priced, service was extremely polite and helpful.

Nice beer garden if you want to quench your thirst. We can't recommend the food - the Wiener Schnitzel was frozen, the fries were good, but unsalted. Baked chicken - tasteless and way too much breading, cucumber and potato salad was good, but there was no taste of the pumpkin seed oil. The 53 euros were definitely too expensive for that. Service - skillfully looked past us after we had our drinks. After several waves and 40 minutes, a colleague was finally sent to us - saying: "they're sitting too far away" - even though the waiter with the drinks also "found" us. Ambiance is ok outside, we didn't see anything inside. So our conclusion - we won't go there anymore!!!

We always enjoy being there again. Very nice staff and we are always very well served, especially by Vittorio! There is also a nice beer garden and enough parking spaces.

Very nice place. All year round, with a great beer garden in summer. Very easy to reach and right next to Sanssouci Park.

The Augustiner Biergarten in the old Sanscouci train station is a restaurant that specializes in Bavarian cuisine. The location is of course great and at first glance I was honestly worried that it might be quite a tourist trap so close to the new palace and the Sanscouci Castle stop. I still went with my wife and in the end I was very happy that I did it. It is very comfortable both inside and outside and there is plenty of space to sit. The service is often criticized here, which I cannot agree with. I found the service super nice. It took a while to get served, but after that it went pretty quickly. As the name suggests, there is freshly tapped Augustiner beer in different types and sizes, which is of course always delicious, especially in summer. I also really like the menu: not too overwhelming, but a good selection and although there is traditional German cuisine, there are also one or two vegetarian options. I had cheese spaetzle and my wife had beef goulash. Both were really good. I thought it was nice that the spaetzle included melted onions in addition to the obligatory fried onions. I also had a salad that was surprisingly tasty and fresh. I also liked the subtle dressing and the fact that he wasn't drowned in it. Only the bowl was perhaps a bit small so that it could be eaten properly without anything falling out the side. For dessert we had apple strudel. You can adapt it relatively individually and, for example, upgrade it with ice cream and vanilla sauce, which is what we did. But that also becomes a little more expensive, because the scoop of ice cream alone costs €2.50. But the dessert tasted really great and was easily enough for both of us. Overall, I think the prices for the location are fair. Didn't have the feeling that tourists were being lured away here. So we were very satisfied and will definitely come back. It's nice that, in addition to all the Ossi cuisine, there is also a restaurant here with good Bavarian food. I can recommend the beer garden for both tourists and locals.

Too bad. It used to be a great place to enjoy good Bavarian cuisine. Service is now underground... Nobody cares about the guest. We literally had to beg to be allowed to order something! The prices are no longer comprehensible. The pure schnitzel without a side dish for €18 is pretty cheeky. We won't be coming back...

Can only be recommended to a limited extent

Very good food and top service.

The beer garden is nice, the staff is friendly. But that was about it in terms of positive things. We (3 people) had 2x schnitzel with asparagus and 1x knuckle. The knuckle was good, but for over 22 euros it was just knuckle with some cabbage and sauce. Not even a potato or dumpling. You would have had to order extra and of course pay extra. The schnitzels were frozen goods. The asparagus was a decent portion, but the hollandaise sauce was thin, very light and not appetizing. The brown butter was a big lump of breadcrumbs in cheap shortening. All in all, it didn't justify the price of a whopping 39 euros per serving. The price-performance ratio here is not right at all and in the end we were annoyed that we ate there. The beautiful beer garden alone doesn't do it.

After a walk through the park at Charlottenhof Palace, you can refresh yourself here. The menu offers very tasty food. You can also sit outside.

Seven of us went to dinner quite spontaneously, called 2 hours in advance and reserved a table. Very nice atmosphere, nice service and very tasty food. Portions were plentiful and we didn't have to wait long for the food. Price/performance ratio absolutely fine, will definitely come back.

Absolutely and twice as much when the weather is good!

It was very nice in the Augustiner. Nice service, delicious food. Simply TOP!

We tried again but the service is poor. Been there twice with mediocre experience and yesterday we left after 10 minutes because we were tired of the service. People stood around, chatted, looked in our direction, but of the three gentlemen on site, none of them were interested in the fact that there were new guests. One even walked past our table without noticing us. German service desert, but then not.

Service schlecht organisiert. Unprofessionell und nicht adäquat. Das Essen können wir nicht bewerten, weil es einfach nicht gekommen ist. Im Osten nichts Neues.

A very nice restaurant with friendly staff and great food at reasonable prices. We were there recently for a funeral and were looked after very carefully and in an extremely friendly manner. Above all, all 10 meals came at the same time and we could all eat together. I have already experienced it differently in other restaurants. Many thanks to the team for this day. But even before, my husband and I had eaten there a few times and have always been very satisfied. No matter whether in the summer outside in the beer garden or inside in the guest room. The restaurant is in a great location at Sanssouci Park, is easily accessible by train and bus and also has a nice, large parking lot. We will definitely come back there often. Keep it up.

Delicious food, friendly service and the price-performance ratio is good. We'd love to come back.

Nice decor and attentive service. However, we were disappointed with the currywurst. In our opinion, the price (14.50 €!) / performance does not fit at all. Drinks were ok. Dark beer🍺(0.5 l): €5.20 (February 2025)

he Augustiner in the Bürgerhof is simply great! The sausage salad was really tasty, and overall the food was excellent. But the best: the service! The waiter was just great – friendly, quick and attentive. You feel comfortable here. I'll definitely be back!

Great restaurant, very nice service, thank you very much Viktoria

Pure enthusiasm. We'd love to come back. So then. Until next time

It was great, relaxed and friendly atmosphere and I ordered a knuckle but felt like I got half a pig.

Food & service only half as good as usual for Augustiner. Food seems warmed up, service not attentive

Dined like the gods on December 24th. Great food.. traditional and super tasty. The spoon-wielding demigod has outdone himself. The service is super attentive and friendly. For me the absolute number 1 when it comes to German cuisine and service. Have a good new year ☺️🎉

We have eaten very well and the waiters are very friendly. We will return!

Food were ok, unremarkable. The food were more salty than how we normally eat but we have the same problem with most of the restaurants in Poland and Germany (at least so far) so I guess it’s just us. We had the beef broth, “emperor’s fricassée” and beef goulash. Servers were friendly and helpful. No complaint.

There are several parking spaces on site. Access via Zwilling-Scholl-Straße.

A restaurant with a rustic feel where friends and family are happy to drop by after work. The service was polite and what we love as a relaxed atmosphere was always fun. The food was delicious and the drink selection was just right. All in all, always worth a trip.

Августинер в очередной раз подтвердил высокий уровень и свое гостеприимство. Отдельно, помимо высоких оценок заведению, вкусной еде и отличному пиву, выделю весь персонал ресторана. Официанты услужливые, расторопные, вежливые. В том числе и они сделали прекрасным вечер. Место, с одной стороны, находится в стороне от центра, в тишине и спокойном районе, а с другой стороны ресторан расположен около Сан Суси, около Нового дворца. Рядом ж/д остановка, что удобно, если надо в Берлин, или еще куда. В целом самые позитивные впечатления!

Great atmosphere. Enjoy your meal.

Interior cozy and nice and warm 😊 the cheese spaetzle were really tasty and the knuckle was crispy on the outside and lean on the inside, just as it should be. The service was consistently unfriendly.

Great food, great beer, friendly waiters

Perfekt für die Pause oder den Abschluss bei einem Besuch im Park Sanssouci. Sehr freundliches und aufmerksames Personal, schönes Ambiente. Das Essen (wir hatten Käsespäzle und Obazda) war reichlich und sehr lecker.

Delicious. I have never eaten such a well-filled tarte flambée

Saturday lunchtime, only 2 men on duty, even though there were registered tour groups. Orga just embarrassing. The waiter was obviously untrained, ran around like a frightened chicken and didn't even manage to bring the menu within 10 minutes and 5 passes. So we just had a quick drink and left.

Nice, rustic restaurant with friendly service, delicious food and beautifully located next to Sanssouci Park. Parking spaces are also available!

Always a pleasant trip... Food, drinks, service and ambience are perfect...

Unfortunately not really Bavarian cuisine. Sitting in the sun is nice.

Bavarian looks different. Well, lukewarm. It could be better.

Prices are very expensive, waiting time for food was over an hour. The staff is still very nice and the area is very attractive.

Excellent food, very friendly service in several languages. They attended to us in Spanish. Very nice construction!

Very polite employees. Very helpful.

Lovingly renovated historic brick train station

A very nice place, clean, friendly staff

We had a very good evening in this restaurant, the food was great and the service was very friendly and helpful

Nice, attached to the Sans Souci park train stop. Great food, great beer, informal, friendly, efficient service. Fair price, considering that we are Berlin and in a tourist area. Recommended for refreshment after a visit to the splendid palace.

Grazioso, attaccato alla fermata ferroviaria del parco Sans Souci. Ottimo cibo, ottima birra, servizio informale, gentile, efficiente. Prezzo onesto, considerando che siamo Berlino e in zona turistica. Raccomandato per rifocillarsi dopo una visita alla splendida reggia.

Quantity fits well. The beer is very tasty. The still water was served with an open bottle. Meat was very dry. A hair was found in the food (it can happen), an alternative was offered. Price-performance not justified.

Waited quite a long time for the waiter, beer was good and at a good temperature. Salted prices for the food. Schnitzel very dry. 1€ for the 20g packet of mayo? Are you burning?

Very nice beer garden! Friendly service and delicious food. Tip: The knuckle is a lot! With a few extra side dishes, you can safely share it with 2-3 people. ;)

Everything was very tasty and quickly at the table. The waiters are thoughtful and kind. The prices are moderate. Gladly again.

Service very slow. Food hearty and good.

Nice beer garden, delicious food, friendly service, unfortunately limited menu, otherwise very satisfied!

A wonderful location to drink a beer in the evening sunshine. Hearty home cooking, a few more vegan alternatives would be cool! Still worth a visit

Unfortunately, twenty minutes after ordering, the roast pork looked as sad as the picture. Therefore, unfortunately, five points 😂😂😂

Delicious food, great service. A perfect place to eat something while visiting the park

Stopped there for a bit on our way to a concert in Potsdam, service is great and friendly, we just ordered a couple of beers and a Berlin currywurst with fries. Really good! And very affordable in relation to the quantity you're getting. Such a nice place to chill with a really good Augustiner 👌👌

Terrible service. Seemed to serve the locals with priority. Only stop here if you have plenty of time to waste…

Beautifully located on the edge of the Sans-Souci Park opposite the Kaiserbahnhof. Tourists probably like it. However, the food was average at best, as was our waiter. Can't recommend this.

Really good meal here, as our server was extremely friendly and cooperative. The pork and potatoes dumplings were both fantastic.

Super nice location, very little selection of dishes, super friendly service, at least my waiter really made an effort. This person would have to run the shop ☺️ Downer: If you are greeted as a new customer at 8.45 p.m. (open until 10 p.m.) with the words "Please order quickly, the kitchen closes at 9 p.m." Currywurst for just under 15 euros, which is really nothing special, can be done, but I'm used to something different from back home. The sauce and sausage didn't convince me.

Good service and excellent food. Very cozy beer garden

Very good experience, very good food, friendly service.

in the middle of the city and still has a special, historical and “homey” atmosphere, good food, a good selection of drinks and a great terrace to relax

Good German cuisine, lots of fried foods Nice atmosphere and highly recommended for Sanssouci visitors as it is right next to the bus and train station opposite the park...

Very nice service. Food was very good.

Very nice service, the food tastes great.

Spontaneously got a place in the staffed beer garden with 16 people and we were very excited. Great service, the food came at the same time and all of our wishes were fulfilled immediately. The food was plentiful and tasty. Thanks

We absolutely loved the Augustiner beer garden in Potsdam during our visit. As soon as you enter the garden you can feel the cozy atmosphere that makes this place so special. The food was excellent. The menu offered a wide selection of traditional Bavarian dishes, prepared with love. The service was also excellent. The staff was always friendly, attentive and very efficient. Despite the many guests, we never had to wait long and felt like we were in good hands at all times. We, a group of friends from deepest Bavaria, have to acknowledge without envy that the Prussians have perfectly understood the beer garden principle. The Augustiner Beer Garden in Potsdam manages to bring a bit of Bavarian cosiness to the north, and we felt very comfortable here. In summary, we can highly recommend the Augustiner Beer Garden in Potsdam. Everything is just right here: delicious food, excellent service and an atmosphere that invites you to linger. Definitely worth a visit!

Spontaneously stopped by the beer garden and ate and drank there. Very nice service staff and the food was delicious.

Despite the full beer garden, everything went very quickly... although sometimes you thought that the waiters didn't really know who owned which food... very tasty food... generous portions and very nice staff... gladly again 🫶🫶🫶

Beautiful old train station with delicious food 😉

It was late in the evening after walking in Park Sanssouci, we were looking for a place to have a dinner. We passed by Augustiner im Bürgerbahnhof and were not disappointed. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, they even had a little chat with us. Our friend group has different food preferences but everyone found something nice to eat. Prices are reasonable and portions are pretty big. We enjoyed our visit a lot, definitely will come back once in Potsdam.

Beer was cold, pork knuckle 22eur super crispy and yet cuttable, so perfect, atmosphere nice and well maintained. Waiter a bit rude, waitress courteous. So definitely a recommendation

Nice beer garden under beautiful old trees. Free parking at the house, as well as bus stops. Food, beer and service are perfect.

Very good restaurant, super tasty and affordable food. Plenty of portions and a beautiful beer garden. I'd love to come back. Super friendly staff.
