Basic Kitchen-Coffee-Bar Marburg in Marburg

Service could actually get 0 stars Never seen anyone work so slowly

Was already there for breakfast and dinner. Both times super tasty food at fair and reasonable prices. I can highly recommend it.

This café offers a great selection of food and drinks (menu attached). The café's products are in a relatively high price range. Nevertheless, it tastes very good. The view is of course unbeatable, as there is a large panoramic window overlooking the city.

I was there for breakfast. Great decor, delicious food. I can recommend what I think it's called Classic Plate. The smoothies were also tasty but very large.

I find it very interesting. I find the coffee absurdly expensive, but the breakfast somehow absurdly cheap for what you get. So the bottom line is really reasonable prices for really good food, service and views!

Waited 30 minutes for a mojito, outrageous. Employees in the kitchen stand around and just chat.

I said several times that I wanted a bagel WITHOUT lettuce & tomatoes, what did I get? A bagel with lettuce😂

Very tasty breakfast, service very friendly.

Tasty Cosy Food is served quickly Beautiful view from the window

Great restaurant, but unfortunately we had to wait a long time for service... they didn't pay any attention to us and preferred to chat.

Nice restaurant in the upper town with a great view over the university town, good food, homemade lemonade, friendly service, what more?! Oh yes: delicious breakfast!

Great breakfast and super nice staff. Always my pleasure.

Unfortunately the map was changed for the worse. First the delicious bagels, like the green vegan bagel, were taken out and now the bagels are only available for breakfast. As a vegetarian/vegan there isn't much left on the menu. There is a falafel bowl and a falafel salad, both of which are very identical in their ingredients, the pinsa unfortunately doesn't taste good at all, and the avocado bowl is very dominated by the balsamic dressing, which unfortunately doesn't go well with the otherwise Mexican-inspired dish. So that actually only leaves one of the burgers, which are tasty, but there are other, sometimes better, restaurants in Marburg for burgers. It's a shame, it would be great if the bagels were back on the regular menu.

One star deduction because you definitely need to clean between the windows and the glass partition in the seating area. You can also wipe off small children's fingerprints there from time to time. It's just constructive criticism, the service and the food, as well as how quickly everything was there, were great, you definitely can't go wrong with a healthy bowl or a burger here.

The food was great, and the service was very quick. But this wore off very quickly, so we waited 45 minutes for service even though the store was not very busy. The waitresses would rather talk about their private lives than serve customers. Unfortunately, the corners of the rooms are also full of spiders and cobwebs, but in my opinion this doesn't have to be the case.

Great ambience with a wonderful view over Marburg, very good quality and lovingly prepared food, the selection of dishes should have something for every taste, price-performance ratio is right! Gladly again!

Hello Marburg, It's fun to sit here and enjoy the view from the upper town. The food is delicious. Your cakes are always fresh and taste great. Best regards

Found by chance. The two of us were really excited. Good selection of everything with wonderful quality at a fair price. The restaurant itself is decorated super cool and offers a beautiful view. Last week we made reservations with a large group (approx. 55 people) and were thrilled. Great organization. Nobody had to wait long and everyone enjoyed it and all their needs were met. I can therefore only recommend the restaurant.

I ordered a Pumkin Latte with lactose-free milk, but it seems to have been normal milk because I now have severe gastrointestinal problems, and there was lipstick on the cup, which I initially thought was a pattern on the cup, but that turned out to be the case /turned out to be lipstick while drinking. I also didn't receive part of my order. I think that's a shame and from now on I'll only go to Basic Coffee at the train station.

Quite expensive, for 3 people burger+fries+soft drink+tip it's €70, that's steep. Unfortunately the burger was only lukewarm. The fries were great. Service was nice, nothing more. You sit outside at a very slanted angle.

Perfect view in the mornings, tasty food with good portions and super friendly staff. Nice black coffee as well. Recommended!

Very nice restaurant with unfortunately a small outdoor area in a quiet location on the edge of the old town. Food and drinks were really tasty and a great price/performance ratio. The service was also very good and our waitress was very friendly. I can highly recommend the burgers.

Always fresh and also flexible in case of intolerances. The tattooed waitress was ultra accommodating and a great shop overall. Super tasty food that doesn't feel heavy on the stomach.

Hello dear Basic team, it was once again a taste experience. I have been to Reitgasse several times and have ordered several times. Everything went smoothly and tasted great. Nadja was our server today and did a great job. Thanks for that! 🙏🏽 Many guests and good luck to all of you.

Food delicious, view great but you have to wait a long time until the food comes 🥐🍽️⏰

The fries were crispy and very tasty. The burger was also very good, but dripped a bit of fat. I don't think 50 cents for mayo/ketchup is necessary given the price you're already paying.

Nice service but you have to bring a lot of time, you wait for what feels like hours for your food and 3 pancakes for 18€ are really cheeky

The food was delicious, the view was great and the interior was cozy and tastefully decorated. Only the service was a bit sloppy, although friendly. First the dishes we ordered came twice, then one order didn't come at all.

A great place, really nicely decorated and a good selection of food and drinks. The staff is very friendly but totally overwhelmed. We've been there three times now and each time the table was dirty, that's what it had to say. It took a long time for the order to be taken. The food is quite good. Bowl and Pinsa were great. Schnitzel was ok and fries were unfortunately cold. Really nice place and friendly. There could be more to the service and cleanliness - you wait a really long time. 1 hour until the food came, every time.

Everything fine if you are not hungry ! Service friendly, location nice, but the food is unfortunately really bad !!

Great burger, nice staff and an unbelievable view. What else does one need?! Loved it.

Good average in everything. The service was super nice, the food took a while to arrive, but it tasted really good. In terms of price, I think it's a bit too expensive, especially for the portions that you have on your plate. Paying extra for any extra request is okay, but ketchup/mayo for 50ct is cheeky.

Great ambience, delicious breakfast with fantastic views and super friendly staff.

Breakfast is recommended! I prefer to go here for brunch because I think breakfast is the best. The acai bowls, the pancakes and the English breakfast are really well done. The fried potatoes are my favorite. But it's also nice in the evening for cocktails with friends or your partner.

Super beautiful. Will definitely have to come here more often

I sat outside in front of the picturesque backdrop of Marburg's old town I could have had fries 🍟 with my meal, but after the gentleman explained to me how big the hamburger would be when I asked, I decided not to have the fries! You have to eat, and the service didn't exaggerate, the hamburger was amazing 🔨 plentiful and very tasty! 🙋‍♀️👌👏

Wirklich gute auswahl, besonders viele vegan optionen was und gefreut hat. Essen war lecker und reichlich, wunderschöne Aussicht und Einrichtung/Ambiente. Und das zu noch faire, erschwingliche Preise. Habe auf TA noch nie funf sterne gegeben :) wir kommen sicher wieder

Been there a few times, the food is delicious and the atmosphere is nice. The service is friendly but you have to wait a long time just to order because you have to attract attention first. It takes a long time for the drinks to arrive. I'll eat here when I have enough time.

Food & drinks always good, location beautiful. The service is friendly, but you can easily wait 30 minutes for your drinks. Not for people who just want to have a quick coffee

The best thing was the view of, for example, a passing R34 or the city. Unfortunately we had to tell the waitress to clear away the old dishes. The food came before the drinks, which had been on the counter for 10 minutes. The burger meat was dry fried. In general, everything took a very long time because the waitresses preferred to sit at their desks rather than do their work.

Breakfast was very good. A little more butter would be good for my taste. Otherwise I would happily go back

The food and drinks are the finest. Very nice and courteous service. Wonderful view over the roofs of Marburg.

Very, very incredibly delicious cuisine! This needs to be highlighted. Everything is beautifully presented on the plate and it tastes fantastic. Waiting times are often very long, and with children it is difficult to keep them happy, especially when they are very hungry. After 40 minutes we were asked what we wanted to order. After another 25 minutes the food came. Of course, 65 minutes until dinner is steep, you shouldn't come to your lunch break thinking that you're going to eat something delicious and think that's not possible. But maybe after work with some time. The ambience, taste and the super friendly staff make up for it!

Nice, atmospheric place, tasty food, I recommend it :)

Waited far too long for the waiters. Food didn't come until 30-40 minutes later and we had to wait a long time to pay, even though we had let us know. But food was good. We were left sitting extra and we weren't told that we couldn't pay by card. Was told he would be right back and he was wiping tables in front of us even though we wanted to leave.

Had a very nice evening here. Delicious food, nice ambience and very friendly staff, what more could you want? My recommendation: The burrata pasta with a homemade soda ✨😋

Unfortunately, I'm always afraid to order food because every time just a coffee or a juice takes 40 to 45 minutes... so you can wait for hours to get something... 4 servers, 6 tables and still no staff... This isn't just the first experience... this has happened 5 times.

A little overpriced for me with umit, but delicious, great ambience and lovely staff

The only thing that wasn't so good was the cocktails, you have to make sure that everything that's on the menu is there, otherwise it was very nice there

I had Breakfast there today the vegan dish was very good, music playlist was absolutely the best and service was great, the girl with the black Piercings was very friendly 😊

I was just there the day before yesterday and it just worked The service was nice and I had the avocado bowl which was very tasty Definitely come back

We were there for breakfast last Thursday. An absolute recommendation from us - extremely friendly and attentive service and very tasty, special food. We will definitely come back 👌

Went there for the first time with my boyfriend. Nice polite staff. Went there for the second time with my mother and little brother. Weird waitress, didn't wipe the table when I asked because of all the crumbs from the guests sitting there before us. Spoon for latte macchiato had disgusting, really greasy grease fingerprints. The waitress looked stupid because we wanted a new, clean one. Only our coffee drinks and cocoa came. We waited for everything else and asked casually after an hour… “Yeah, oops, we forgot that.” Paid and left. If they don't want guests and look and react strangely when asked politely, then they shouldn't run a cafe. Accordingly, I advise everyone I know not to go there because hygiene and cleanliness is a foreign concept to them. I have to gag now when I think about the greasy fingerprint. It was also so disgustingly yellow. In any case, you will miss a lot of customers because I have a disgusting spoon and leftover food crumbs table picture and like to show it around at work🫶🏼 Goes to every cafe in Marburg, I feel like I've tried them all, but no one needs to visit this one.

Had an great experience here! The blueberry pancakes are truly to die for! When you’re visiting you should definitely try them! Pinsa was good as well. The service was friendly and fast despite it being quite full. Also there are many milk alternatives which was fantastic! (Try some coconut milk on your next go :))

Completely unfriendly. My partner and I came on Saturday lunchtime at around 2 p.m. and wanted to get a table for two people. Of course we could also wait and we could understand if there wasn't a table for us. But!! We came and the waiter simply said: no, everything was occupied. Without hello and without the suggestion to wait. Then the barista said: Maybe you could wait (which the waiter actually suggested to us), we waited and saw that after about 3-4 minutes 3 or 4 tables were already free. Then the waiter called us and instead of giving us a seat, he walked away and left us waiting in the café. It was also too warm and you couldn't sit comfortably. We just left the café. Wouldn't recommend anyone. Very unfriendly, unpleasant and bad!

Very bad attention. We waited 40 minutes for some coffees and we even missed the train only to be told in the end that it was a system error. Despite having arrived early, we were the last to be served, which generated great indignation. Insert photo of how we feel. P.S: it's a picture of the restaurant

Food was okay but not a must have. The selection of food was good and there was definitely something for every taste. Always very crowded, lots of people in very little space. The view is super beautiful.

Christmas vibes, the roasted salad was awesome 🤩

Very cozy cafe, great view, good selection of products. Everything we tried was tasty to very tasty. Prices are okay. Service was quite slow, but was also very busy. We'd love to come back.

Nice location, great breakfast offering, beautiful view of Marburg. Reservation makes sense. You'll be happy to come back here.

Wir waren schon zum Frühstücken und auch zum Abendessen dort. Das Essen ist lecker und sehr schön angerichtet. Geschmacklich sind die Veganen Gerichte absolut top und die Auswahl ist gut. Ein paar Vegane Nachtische wären noch super , aber wäre für mich kein Kriterium dort nicht mehr hinzugehen. Einen Stern Abzug gibt es für den Service. Die Bedienungen waren bisher alle super nett. Jedoch dauert es ewig bis jemand zum Tisch kommt , sodass man Getränke nachbestellen kann. Da ist auch die Uhrzeit und der Tag egal, die Erfahrung machten wir bisher dort immer.

Oh man, I'm really happy every time I go to Basic with my friends, it's just awesome :)

Das Basic ist mein liebstes Café in Marburg. Es ist der perfekte Ort zum Brunchen mit Freundinnen, Abendessen mit der Familie oder um bei einem Chai ein Buch zu lesen. Die Atmosphäre ist sehr angenehm und das große Panoramafenster bietet eine tolle Aussicht über Marburg! 🌞 Es gibt eine große und abwechslungsreiche Auswahl verschiedener Speisen und Getränke, die allesamt mit viel Mühe und liebevoll zubereitet werden. Meine Favoriten sind die hausgemachte Mango Maracuja Limonade, die Blaubeer-Bananen Pancakes und die leckeren Bowls.

Nettes Café. Es ist zwar etwas zu hipster, aber das ist OK.

Der Kuchen echt lecker ( Schokokuchen😃)...toll angerichtet... Der Cappuccino ist auch sehr gut und wenn du dann noch einen der begehrten Fensterplätze bekommst mit einer tollen Aussicht über Marburg, ist es perfekt.

Tolles Ambiente, freundliche Bedienung und tolle Essensauswahl (auch vegetarisch / vegan). 😊🌱

War mit meiner Freundin zum ersten Mal dort, und hat uns richtig gut gefallen !

Haben dort gefrühstückt, war echt gut, aber ich finde es im Vergleich zu anderen Läden recht teuer. Der Service war okay für einen Samstagmorgen, ja es war viel los, aber dies sollte trotzdem kein Grund sein bis zur ersten Bestellung für einen Kaffee gute 15min Wartezeit einzureichen, aber okay wie gesagt, viel los. Wir hatten online reserviert, hat auch alles prima funktioniert. Kleiner Tipp: Wenn das EC Kartenlesegerät nicht funktioniert, sagt es bevor man bestellt... Nicht beim zahlen, kommt blöd wenn man kein Bargeld einstecken hat und sich darauf verlässt (tel. Info das Kartenzahlung möglich ist). Wir kommen sicherlich mal wieder um zu schauen wie es beim zweiten Mal zugehen wird.

Cappuccino was cold but ok. Best service and views Insta @arashmzh

Wir waren zum Frühstück hier. Tolles Ambiente, schöne Aussicht und leckeres Essen. Ich ziehe leider trotzdem 2 Sterne ab da wir 40 Minuten auf unsere beiden Teller warten mussten. Meinen Pott Kaffee habe ich gerne zu meinem Frühstück. Aber da war der letzte Rest kalt. Ich hatte das "Basic" Frühstück für 15,90 € Der Brie-Käse hat es allerdings nicht auf meinen Teller geschafft, obwohl auf der Karte angegeben. Die Pancakes waren etwas zäh...aber alles sehr lecker.

Frühstück war der Hammer! Tolle Aussicht auf die Stadt; sehr nette Bedienung und toll angerichtetes Essen! Hat den Trip nach Marburg echt zusätzlich abgerundet. Empfehlenswert 👌🤩

Ein unvergleichliches Frühstückserlebnis! Die spektakuläre Aussicht über die Stadt hat jeden Moment noch beeindruckender gemacht. Hervorzuheben ist auch die außergewöhnlich zuvorkommende Bedienung sowie die kreativ zubereiteten Speisen, die unsern Aufenthalt in Marburg wahrhaft einzigartig gestaltet haben. Absolut empfehlenswert! 😍🍽️👌🌟

Essen und Getränke wurden schnell aufgenommen aber die warte Zeit beträgt über 1 std für die Getränke und das Essen auch

Man kann sehr gut Frühstücken und Kaffee trinken. Die Bedienung ist immer nett und freundlich. Es hat ein Flair sehr gemütlich.

Die Wartezeit beträgt für Getränke C.a 50 min und Essen C.a 1:20stunde

Cozy place with a nice views. Different tasty options of foods and drinks including vegan options. Not expensive and kind personal.

Tolles Essen und schönes Lokal! Eine sehr schöne Aussicht! Das Personal nett aber etwas gestresst! Leider konnte man such die freien Plätze nicht selber aussuchen, das fande ich nicht so gut !!!

Ein wirklich sehr schönes Restaurant mit einer guten Auswahl an Hauptspeisen und Heißgetränken. Ein Highlight ist hier sicherlich das Frühstück. Auch zahlreiche vegane Optionen werden angeboten. Einzig die Bedienung lässt manchmal etwas auf sich warten, teilweise dauert es ziemlich lange, bis man die Karte erhält oder das Essen an den Tisch gebracht wird.

Sehr schönes Restaurant, wo man sowohl gut frühstücken oder zu Mittag oder zu Abend essen kann. Die mette und professionelle Bedienung ergänzt das gute Essen und die akzeptablen Preise.

Das Lokal ist schön eingerichtet und hat einen gemütlichen Flair. Wir waren zum frühstücken dort, das Essen war in Ordnung, außer dass die Brötchen wahnsinnig trocken waren. Für den Preis von 12,90€ kann man frische Brötchen erwarten. Es waren relativ wenig Kellner im Verhältnis zur Größe des Restaurants, wodurch diese ausgelastet waren. Unsere Bestellung kam trotzdem relativ zügig und bis auf ein Wasser das vergessen wurde war alles gut.

Sehr nette Bedienung und sehr schöne Atmosphäre. Das Essen wsr sehr lecker.

Ich hatte das French Frühstück, extra Rührei und einen Caramel Coffee. Sehr geil, den Preis absolut wert. Die Stimmung ist gut, die Bedienung ist super nett und das Essen ist sehr schön angerichtet. Erstes mal in Marburg, aber hier möchte ich jedes mal hin, wenn ich zu Besuch komme, um andere Gerichte von der Speisekarte zu probieren

War lange Zeit mitunter unser Lieblingsrestaurant in Marburg, da man wirklich gute Qualität zu gutem Preis bekommt. Leider ist es so, dass Qualität von Essen und Service großen Schwankungen unterliegen, so wartet man teils sehr, sehr lange oder wird vom Service überhaupt nicht wahrgenommen, was nicht zuletzt daran liegen könnte, dass es scheint, als würden bei jedem Besuch neue Mitarbeiter dort arbeiten. Ein weiteres Manko: das Fleisch beim Basic Burger war qualitativ für den Preis und auch im Vergleich zum restlichen Niveau absolut unterirdisch, es war grau und völlig unangenehm zu essen.

Das Restaurant hat eine super schöne Aussicht über Marburg. Auch das Innendesign beeindruckt. Die Preise sind fair und auch das Essen und Getränke haben sehr gut geschmeckt. Immer wieder gerne.

Hier kann man gut Frühstücken. Positiv aufgefallen ist, dass es viele Frühstücksvarianten zu unterschiedlichen Preisen gab und nicht den teuren Einheitsbrunch der meisten anderen Lokalitäten.

So ein schönes Lokal. Das war nicht von außen zu erwarten. Sehr freundliches Personal und drotz der vielen Gäste, haben wir nicht lange gewartet auf Essen und Trinken. Das Essen ist sehr schön hergerichtet, jedoch nicht von sehr guter Qualität. Das Ambiente hat den Qualitätsverlust wieder wett gemacht.

Wir waren gestern zum ersten Mal dort und sind sehr angetan: schönes und geschmackvolles Ambiente, schnelle und gute Küche, schnelle und freundliche Servicekraft - was will man mehr? Fazit: gerne immer wieder, einfach ausprobieren und genießen

Service ist okay, Essen ist okay. Die Zubereitung des Essens dauert gefühlt eine halbe Ewigkeit.

Wunderschönes Café mit toller Aussicht. Die Crunchy Chicken Bowl war köstlich! Freundliches Personal, angenehme Atmosphäre zum Verweilen und Genießen. 👍🏼

Sehr schöner Ausblick über Marburg

Pinsa, Bowls sind lecker und phantsdievoll. Der Ausblick ist fantastisch.

Das Essen war Lecker und das Preisleistungsverhältniss bei den Cocktails war Hervorragend. Personal ist super Nett. 10 von 10

Super Essen, super Personal, super Restaurant! Wir waren an einem Freitag Abend dort. Zu Empfehlen ist der Basic Burger. Die Cocktails sind sehr gut. Das Personal ist auch super!

Definitiv der beste der 3 Basic-Lokale in Marburg. Der Service ist immer gut, freundlich und aufmerksam, auch wenn viel los ist. An den Bestellungen gab es bisher nichts zu Beanstanden. Hier geht man gerne essen. :)

Super Essen, super Personal, super Restaurant!

An sich richtig schöner Laden und das Essen ist auch gut, aber es dauert immer sehr lange, bis man bedient wird bzw. man das bekommt, was man bestellt hat (egal ob Essen oder Getränke). Macht auch keinen Unterschied ob man etwas zum Mitnehmen bestellt oder im Lokal isst. Musste auch schon mehrfach beobachten, während ich auf mein Essen zum Mitnehmen gewartet hab, wie das Essen aus der Küche kommt und dort dann teilweise 5-10 Minuten rumsteht, bis es von einer Bedienung zum Gast gebracht wird. Es wirkt oft so, als ob 1-2 Mitarbeiter fehlen. Ich gehe zwar dennoch sehr gerne hierher, aber nur wenn ich auch wirklich die Zeit habe. Für etwas Schnelles To Go (auch im Bezug auf Kaffee) kann ich das Basic leider nicht empfehlen.

Sehr freundliches Umfeld. Komme gerne wieder.

Toller Ausblick und ein schönes Ambiente. Das war es dann leider aber auch. 2 Stunden auf das Frühstück warten und dann alles einzeln mit wiederum großer zeitlicher Verzögerung bekommen geht einfach gar nicht. Also viel Zeit mitbringen und am besten keine Termine im Anschluss haben ;-)
