Bar Down Under in Hamburg

I have known the store for over 15 years. Used to be good. Now an absolute disaster! Went there today for all you can eat chicken wings. Service was completely overwhelmed as it was about a year ago. One star is still too many! Napkins were only given upon request, no plate for the bones. My companion had finished his meal (ribs and wings combo) and mine still wasn't there after an hour. When I asked, it turned out that the waiter understood that I didn't want to order/eat anything?! I'm sorry, what? I have no words for so much incompetence. It was promised that the order would come in 10 minutes, but then it took more like 20. I was about to leave the store without food. Absolute disappointment. Never again!

The service was great. We had so much fun with Josh and Jakub was great too, especially his playlist.

Unfortunately, every time we visit, there are eternal waiting times, from the first order to the food and other drinks to the bill, thank you, that's it for us, there's no more chance. But the food and drinks are good.

If you bring in a lot of time then it's cool

It feels more like a bar with chicken wings than a restaurant. Also reflected in the menu, it feels like 80% is drinks. Nevertheless, the wings and spare ribs are super tasty. The normal fries are also highly recommended. However, the service could be improved a bit. Unfortunately the wrong sauces were entered for my order and a side didn't come. In addition, it felt like the server only came by the table three times and you couldn't really order anything new or different unless you went to him. I could understand if the store was completely full - but it was only 50% occupied.

All you can eat wings are great, just the ambience and lighting is a matter of taste.

The Quizmaster was very kind and listened to my complaints with genuine interest. He even offered me a free drink, which was a thoughtful gesture. I’m eagerly looking forward to next Monday’s quiz. I highly recommend stopping by and checking it out!

Just like before, just like always.

Everything too slow, too late. Hardly any food or too small than expected.

Cozy place with friendly staff and pretty good chicken wings. Tried the “styles” USA, Buffelo and Italy, of which Buffelo tasted best. The dips were nothing special. Overall, the wings were tasty, but not anything earth-shattering, would give them 3.5 stars. The ambience is slightly rustic, simple and therefore pleasant. The toilets are very narrow and, as is typical for Hamburg, full of grease, but still clean.

The food is always delicious and the staff is very friendly.

Furniture is a little old but the food is delicious and the service is great

The only thing down under here is the service and the waiting time

Incredibly bad service. After 30 minutes we actively called in the service from the bar to order, food was served more randomly in individual portions to the guests one after the other with a long gap in time. Neither cutlery, napkins, nor bone plates were brought without being asked. It took almost 1.5 hours from ordering (i.e. 2 hours from arrival) for my burger to arrive and the all-you-can-eat faction had long since completed their first round by then. And the store was only about half full. You could eat the all-you-can-eat all day long because you'll have easily digested the first portion by the time the second one arrives. However, there was amusement when one of the service employees wore a T-shirt with the inscription on the back: "If you can read this, you're screwed.", how true how true... Alcoholic cocktails were very fizzy, the (alcohol-free) Ipanema basically consisted only of lime juice and was far too sour. Side wedges were 5 isolated potato wedges, all cheeky for the price. The only positive things to rate were the kangaroo burgers and sweet potato fries themselves, which were extremely tasty. Nevertheless, definitely the last visit there. It's actually a shame because the Australian atmosphere is a unique selling point in the area and something different.

I'm there once a month for the "Rib All you can Eat", the atmosphere and service are always at the top level. The available flavors of the ribs and wings could vary a little more. The staff even advised us against a few flavors. All in all, I can highly recommend Down Under. :)

One of the best chicken wings in Hamburg and great place to chill and vibe with your friends

The price-performance ratio is definitely okay. We were there on Tuesday for all you can eat chicken wings. For 17 euros you definitely can't go wrong. The many different styles of wings are extraordinary, although unfortunately not all of them appealed to us. The burgers are also okay. The atmosphere is very harmonious and the Pitcher beer is available for a fair 14 euros

Down Under is always a good choice for all-you-can-eat. The food quality is good. Depending on whether there is a lot or little going on, you need to bring some time. Both the audience and the service are always friendly and treat you at eye level.

Cozy atmosphere and a very nice pub quiz. The quiz questions were also certainly challenging. Food was tasty and staff friendly. Personally, I thought the service was a bit slow, but good. I'll come back again.

Daaaamn, what a night! My boyfriend and and I came here for a night of wraping up this hectic week, and we really got what we were looking for. It was amazing!! ❤️ From food to atmosphere, to drinks and even the staff working here, everything was perfect! We got some free leftovers (as we came at the bar around 23:45) and still got to enjoy the happy hour. Lisa, Josh and their coworkers were super friendly and hospitable and made our night amazing! Thank you so, so much for everything you did for us. You made our first weeks in Hamburg memorable 🤗🥰

Highly recommended bar and especially sub buffet of wings and ribs!! The treatment was unbeatable and even in Spanish

Australian famous beers with scrumptious ribs and wings

Very beautiful and extraordinary. Kangaroo Curry.

Unfortunately the quality has lost over the years. The “all you can eat” chicken wings variant involves waiting 30 minutes for every 6 chicken wings. The staff shows little understanding for the open criticism (which does not mean that it was unfriendly). It was borderline the last time we visited, when they said the kitchen staff was new and not yet well-rehearsed (I understood and had patience for that). Today it was the high number of guests. Two years ago things were completely different despite the high number of guests.

Great food, cozy atmosphere and a super varied pub quiz every Monday 😍

Yesterday I went to all you can eat with my friend. We both ordered chicken wings. Unfortunately, it took about 45 minutes for the first round to be brought to the table. The second round wasn't much better. The end result was that we left the store hungry after more than 2 hours. Very unfortunate

Food was OK. 45!min waiting time for a burger..

Very tasty wings and super friendly staff. The ambience creates a cozy and pleasant pub atmosphere. Gladly again!

Howdy! The Down Under Bar leaves no wish unfulfilled. Whether authentic food or the first 8-19 beers before a night of partying - you feel good here! The culinary advice from the attractive staff was excellent. The crew behind the bar seemed particularly competent: Elli, Jakub and Michel. Thank you :) PS: The staff really rocks the place! 🤘🏼

Some friends and I went here last month. It was very busy and chaotic and we expected a long wait thus. I ordered the unlimited chicken wings and pointed it out. When the food finally arrived after 45 mins, I was brought unlimited spare ribs. I pointed it out to the waitress that I had the chicken wings and she said ‘No you didn’t’ With no point in arguing after being accused of lying about my own order - I accepted the (incorrect) order of spare ribs. Never was I offered a new portion of UNLIMITED ribs - no one came to check on us after being served only once. My friend also didn’t receive the correct order (got normal fries instead of sweet potato fries) So I paid an expensive price for unlimited (incorrect order) ribs with no refill, only had the first small portion as we were never checked on. With the long wait, being given the wrong order and when I complained about it being told I lied about it - their hospitality defo is very ‘down under’. I’ll give them 2 stars for the OK 1 single portion of ‘unlimited’ (wrongly given) ribs.

First time there - will stay that way for now. It's been a few months since my actual visit, but I forgot to write a review for it - so I'm posting it now, because my frustration runs deep enough. On the positive side: The chicken wings are great, the selection is good, there should be something for everyone. I have definitely found my varieties and have basically used something different every time. Very tasty, please maintain quality. On the negative side: Service was virtually non-existent. We were a small group at the back of the store and there were two other large groups sitting closer to the entrance. Unfortunately, we hardly received any service and waited over half an hour for our first chicken wings. On the second one too, then even 45 minutes. The 4th round was something in between, the 5th was fairly quick at 20 minutes. We got damn hungry at times because we had to wait so long between rounds and had nothing else. When I go to all you can eat sushi, whether on the line or not, I have never had to wait longer. But here it was a disaster. We were all very disappointed, especially since we had only heard positive things before. I don't even know why I paid because I basically didn't get what I ordered. And the bad thing is: we even had a reservation.

Incredibly friendly team! You feel like you're at home. It's always so nice with you. Thanks!

We have tried this place with my friends not long ago. We truly enjoyed the wings! There are some truly unique versions for the wings (like banana coconut) what's worth to try at least once. We needed to mention that we as a group speak english but that was no issue. But needed to mention! Don't be shy. They are really helpful and friendly. The place has a nice pub vibe and can be a bit busy (understably so!) We recommend it. My friends come back rolling thes ate that much wings.

The Down Under Bar in Hamburg is an absolute insider tip! Absolutely awesome! If you've always wanted to go to Australia but only have enough budget for a train journey, then come here! The drinks are so good that by the third cocktail you'll think you can see kangaroos - and the staff is so friendly you'll almost think you're part of the family (or wildlife). The atmosphere? Mega! Five stars because unfortunately six doesn't work! Cheers, Mate!

All you can eat ribs was promised. Got one round while the rest of my squad got nothing. When my friends asked when the food would come after an hour. The owner was still rude and very rudely asked our entire group out of the restaurant. But after a conversation, he at least agreed to a special price for just one round of riplcben. I definitely won't be coming back. When you are treated like that as a guest. No matter how stressful it is. You neither become rude to your guests nor do you turn them away. Because after 1 hour you carefully ask where the food is

Is my favorite shop! Best wings and best ribs! Japan style kills everything <3

The selection of wings is great and all delicious, especially the All You Can Eat one is worth trying out the individual varieties. Sometimes the waiting times for the food are a bit long.

Very tasty wing all you can eat, unfortunately sometimes there are a bit of a long wait until the next portion. Very pleasant bar atmosphere. Huge, delicious portions of fries!

From the drinks to the food to the staff, everything was extremely good. All tables are equipped with nice little trivia question cards, which also adds a bit of fun. This store has the winning recipe for a good evening.

Couldn’t rate the food after 2 hours. Waste of time

Takes hours to get food. Understaffed

The kangaroo Currywurst was quite enjoyable, the selection of Australian beers is not bad but sadly the only one on tap was sold out at the moment

I really like the ambience. But above all, I come here often because of the chicken wings ala WakaWaka. :D

Unfortunately the food was a total failure. For one thing, it took about an hour until it was on the table, there's almost no meat on the wings and I've never seen ribs that small. The fries were fat-soaked wobbly potatoes. Not Australian cuisine! Service and atmosphere was very good 👍🏼

Outstanding quality and the selection of this restaurant is the most unique of the restaurants we have visited so far.

Awesome ribs and chicken wings. Wide selection of flavours. Coming back.

Service poor. I've been here twice now, 3 weeks apart, and both times several waiters came to us and didn't know that we had already ordered something. We also had to ask several times WHAT we had ordered. We also had to wait 110 minutes for our food. No fries were brought. We were told we would get the fries we ordered straight away. We now had to wait half an hour and the fries still didn't come.

While we were waiting for our food, I filled out a Bafög application, sent it off and received a response (I don't get any Bafög) :( But food was delicious

To put it briefly: the order took 1 hour and 30 minutes to arrive and it was expensive.

Waited 2 hours for the food, which was then only partially served and you had to wait another half hour, the food was lukewarm and very poorly prepared, definitely NOT worth the money and even 1 star is too much and definitely for what you get too expensive

We got 50 chicken wings for just under 34 euros. The wings were good, but some of the sauces didn't quite convince us. The Australian wings were the tastiest. The different types of beer from Australia and the wide selection of European beer were also interesting. We'll be back!

Nice informal atmosphere, Chili Cheese burger was delicious. Sat at the bar since we didn't have a reservation, the bartender was a real professional! Recommended!

Quaint pub, funny, loud, well attended. I just won't eat the kangaroo again. A kangaroo is not my meat.

Great chilled out place to drink a beer and say two or three words. A fragment of Australia in the middle of Hamburg. The service is friendly and the wings are highly recommended. ⚠️ Be careful with the SnakeBite!! ⚠️ It tastes absolutely amazing, addictive and you definitely have to try it, but this thing goes straight to your head 😜 I would definitely like to come back 👍

Waited 2 hours for food. Haven't been there for what feels like 15 years. I won't come back either. 2 service staff for the entire store. And it feels like 1 cook otherwise it can never take that long. Super weak performance.

One star deducted, the fries could have been a little crispier. Citizens and chicken wings can't be beat. Top really tasty

I always like to come with my best friend for wings and beer. It's always been delicious and a great atmosphere. Gladly again and again.

There are several rooms Cozy ToTaL and simply brilliant Downunder is the hit from HeLlo or... G'day Mate to... See Ya then .. everything is right

The food is too delicious, the service was very good and the atmosphere when they have quiz for my part as I am more of a noise maker it is not so fun for me, but if you like them you'll have so much fun

Cool, cozy atmosphere. The food was great, but the service or rather the kitchen was subtly overwhelmed. Ordered eight meals, after more than an hour the first four meals arrived (the side dishes were missing from two meals). The remaining four meals and the missing side dishes were brought about half an hour later...

Delicious, down-to-earth, rustic, cozy. During the last visit with 18 people, we were completely overwhelmed to record the orders properly. Accordingly, discrepancies in payment. The Alabama style wings are divine. Plus a gravestone cocktail. I don't need any more.

A super cool shop Food great prices completely ok We're already looking forward to the next time.

Very cozy, very tasty, completely satisfied...

Great store Pub quiz recommended

Rustic restaurant with delicious food. We tried the chicken wings all you can eat and it was just great! Testing the different styles was an experience in itself. We will be back definitely. The unisex toilet was unusual. The staff was super friendly.

Always worth a visit 🥳 The food is delicious as always and the service is very nice! 👍🏼You should enjoy the B52 hot ✌️🔥

We already ate there 11 years ago and really wanted to go there again today because the chicken wings taste very delicious ❤️👍🏼

It's just a pub, but the food is good, the service is great and the people are nice. It would definitely be time for a few repairs to the furniture.

The restaurant "Down Under" is the culinary jackpot that makes you feel like you've been beamed into the middle of the Australian outback - without leaving your living room. My friend, who has claimed he is secretly a kangaroo since visiting this place, promptly declared it his favorite restaurant. Here is a small sample: - **Food**: The menu reads like an adventure novel. From the emu-esque omelette to the barramundi-good fish dish, every bite is a culinary down-under experience. - **Atmosphere**: Rustic wooden tables decorated with boomerangs and didgeridoos transport you directly to the shores of Bondi Beach. Only the crocodiles are missing – luckily! - **Service**: The waiters are so friendly that you almost forget you are in a restaurant and not at an Australian family gathering. In short: Down Under is the perfect place to awaken your inner Crocodile Dundee and enjoy a piece of Australia on your plate. My friend is convinced: "If I ever emigrate, it will only be if 'Down Under' comes with me!"

I found this place completely by accident while looking for something to eat for dinner. Australian bar in Hamburg. Let's rewind the tape a bit - AUSTRALIAN bar in Hamburg!!! The first impression is absolutely wonderful, friendly service. Second impression: they have hamburgers (hamburger, Hamburg, hehe) with kangaroo meat and another with crocodile meat. You can't miss something like this! The burger is very simple, without fancy additives (which is not necessarily a bad thing) with wonderful kangaroo meat - something like a cross between beef and maybe deer, but without fat. It was great. Tomorrow I'm coming back to try crocodile meat ;)

The store looks great and seems fine so far. Unfortunately, the speakers boom loudly with light bass, which is really annoying. The food is unfortunately miserable, I have to say. The fries are great as far as fries go, but the burgers are really bad. Taste worse than those ready-made burgers at Aldi. Service is extremely slow and you really have to allow a lot of time to get any order. So I think the price/performance ratio is very, very bad

Been here 5 times so far, would 10/10 recommend both the tap beer (Murphy's fan myself) and chicken wings (particularly with the thai flavour) A perfect bar for expats, they also have bottomless food days and pub quiz nights.

I received friendly service, but I found the shop very noisy, everything was a bit greasy and the food was okay, but not a highlight...

Wow. So bad. Ordered and received nothing. Then ordered again. Then it was delivered incorrectly. Unbelievable. Then no credit card payment possible. Update: 2 years later we were back. Food arrived differently than ordered and the payment device didn't work. Waiters were eating and drinking themselves and didn't even look at us for 15 minutes. Something like: “Did it taste good” or “Would you like something else?” None. This probably needs to be properly retrained. It's crazy how you can't feel like doing your job, probably. There are still cables hanging out of the wall.

Chicken wings and cocktails absolutely recommended!

I was there with an American friend and an Italian one and they loved the chickens wing. I had french fries, small portion was big at my eyes and good. People working there are really nice and they served us with a smile also if we were quite late. Very simple but comfortable location to go with friends. Price was also good.

Very tasty food, good selection. Friendly and attentive service. :) With all you can eat you have to expect longer waiting times as it can be very busy.

Very good ribs. Nice staff. Good beer. Perfect for a relaxed evening.

A really great shop with great food and drinks. The staff is very friendly and on the ball... The boss is also in the right place here. 😜👍🍻

Fair price, nice service, nice atmosphere and well connected

The spareribs are very good by Hamburg standards

orders took ages, and chips on the soggy side. then again, having been able to try crocodile (tastes like fishy chicken) and kangaroo, the visit was worth it. i will certainly try again

As always, we were absolutely convinced by the location, stuff and the unbeatably delicious food. We came unannounced with a large company. The staff immediately assigned us a suitable area in the restaurant and took our order - even though the store was already pretty full - we will definitely be back!

Something completely different. Delicious chicken wings in a variety of separately selectable flavors, plus customizable dips with delicious bread and celery. The baked potato is cooked to perfection, as are the crispy sweet potato fries or wedges. Where else can you get crocodile and/or kangaroo burgers? Or kangaroo sausages? It's nice that the amount of chicken wings can be adjusted to individual hunger or group size. Beer and wine are not to be sniffed at either.

We arrived with around ten friends ready to consume. We waited 10 minutes even though there was an open table. When we asked, the waitress wouldn't seat us. She told us that if we wanted to leave, we just had to do so.

The food tastes good or would taste good if it were served hot, I would also be okay with lukewarm. But that's it, in school grades I would give a straight 7, even if it had to be invented first. However, cold ribs are also an experience. When it came to “all you can eat”, the reservation was not found at first, we were moved from the table several times due to poor planning and after 1.5 hours and multiple requests we only had 2 plates with ribs on which there were hardly any ribs to be found, each Appetizer is more sumptuous. I come from the provinces to the big city and what do I notice? In our small town of 30,000 people, there are restaurants that have a much more professional approach to the spare ribs all you can eat concept. At this point, compliments to the Texas River Ranch from Bingum, the guys have the concept down pat, take an example of a restaurant down under. Anyway, after 2 hours we left and got a kebab as we hadn't had anything to eat until then. I would advise everyone not to visit and I will definitely not be coming back.

I came twice, once the service was very slow (but the food was very good), another time very unpleasant, we couldn't even sit down even though tables were available!

Literally the waitress just told us if you want to go somewhere else you can leave. There was a table open for us but she didn’t want to seat us. So rude, don’t recommend.

Great Australian pub with burger cuisine, ribs, wings etc... Imported beers are also available. The atmosphere on the lower ground floor is great, some of the staff are visiting students, so if in doubt, speak English. But for me that only adds to the very good atmosphere. I always enjoy coming here.

Waited 1 hour 45 minutes for the food. I have never experienced anything like it.

always very tasty! The chicken wings are the best! Ambience very rustic. Staff very friendly Price-performance fits. Toilets (men's! women's, I don't know) could use some sprucing up.

We expected over 40 minutes before we got our order. However, I really enjoyed the burger!

No idea why there's an Australian restaurant in Hamburg. Food is good though. Burgers were a bit sloppy but they have kangaroo and crocodile meat which is worth the visit in of itself. For reference, kangaroo tastes like leaner beef without fat, and crocodile tastes like chicken if it chickens were fish. Service could have been a little faster, but it's got a lot of charm for an Australian place 10,000 kilometers away from Australia.

We were there on a Tuesday for all you can eat chicken wings. The waitresses are very friendly. The pub very welcoming. You can even watch football. Unfortunately, many of the types of wings on offer were not tasty. Either they tasted like nothing, i.e. very bland, or the taste didn't match what was on offer at all. I would come back but then eat something different.

Let's start with the negative: Yes the service isn't the greatest! But it was limited and has not had any negative effects. Most importantly: We went there for the chicken wings all-you-can-eat, and it was wonderful. After initial confusion, reordering worked very well and the intervals weren't too long. The wings themselves were really good! All of them were very crispy and fresh, the different styles are certainly not for everyone - but you can try them out. :-) My fiancée had the spare ribs - these were also extremely tasty, crispy and tender. The portion was also decent. Definitely worth a recommendation!

The service was good even though the place was very busy and the wings were almost perfect. I had the XL plate (18 wings / 3 styles +2 dips). Buffalo 10/10, Italy 9/10 and Japan, the Japan wings were unfortunately a bit dry and the marinade had already dried up. But since the other two styles were very good, I am very satisfied. The homemade lemonade was also very good. I would come back!

Excellent pub quiz every Monday! Plus delicious drinks and good food. Also highly recommended for internationals

An unexpectedly wonderful experience. The staff was very nice and accommodating. We only had dessert but it was really worth the stop.

Wonderful place to remember and feel like you're in australia 🇦🇺 The desserts are awesome!!! And the people are all friendly and helpful... Recommend it!! 👍

Quaint place, friendly and attentive staff. Unfortunately there was a long wait for the food because my burger was still only lukewarm and the taste wasn't great...
