BrewDog Berlin Friedrichshain in Berlin

Expensive hipster place, but main issue is the food quality… Why do u guys put so much vinegar into chicken wings??? At some point it was literally unbearable to eat. Next day I had stomach issues because of that.

I’ve been to several BrewDog locations before, but this was by far the worst experience. My friends and I came for the unlimited chicken wings and some beers—sounds simple enough, yet the staff here managed to completely fumble both. We arrived at 6:30 PM. The place was about 80% full—not packed, but definitely not empty. Overpriced Beer – Most beers were over €7 for just 0.25-0.33L Slow & Small Wing Servings – Despite ordering quickly, we received only five rounds in two hours, each with just 5-6 wings—hardly "unlimited." Declining Wing Quality – At first, the wings were okay for bar food, but by the third round, they tasted awful. The buffalo wings in particular just turned into pure vinegar—either the sauce was off, or the beer made it worse. Incorrect Orders – Our waiter messed up the wing order twice, apologized, and promised to fix it—but never did. Shady Billing – When it was time to pay, they ran out of receipt paper, so we had no way to verify what we were charged. We ended up paying €40 each for wings (€18), a small taster (4×200ml, supposedly ~€12), and a beer (€6). Something felt off, but without a receipt, we couldn’t check. Overall, I won’t be coming back. While two of the four waiters were friendly, the rest were inattentive. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Great beer. Food was okay, and there were good vegetarian options. Self-service and the bar were often empty because they were busy or smoking, which is annoying when you're standing at the bar waiting instead of chatting with friends.

Been yesterday after work, got a beer a some loaded fries with chicken. Weird taste. Ends up with stomach problem after an hour.

My burger was sensationally good and came with delicious fresh fries. Great, crazy-sounding types of beer tempt you to try them all. Very nice staff. Absolutely recommended. Thank you.

Amazing staff, especially Jake Brilliant bar

Is one of my regular bars, beer is good, food is nice, I can recommend for a nice evening!

You can go there to drink a beer. To meet up with friends, no, very loud. As it is, the louder the music, the louder you have to talk.

False information on the website

great service and beer recommendations by jack, delicious burger too :)

On the day I was there there were two service staff behind the counter. Unfortunately only one of the two served, the other just cleared away. Therefore, there was a lot of traffic jam and the ordering process became a test of patience. I wouldn't have expected that on a Thursday. But otherwise everything was OK.

The burgers were very tasty. The French fries worth €3.50 are very few and unfortunately not worth that amount in this quantity. Unfortunately, the employee didn't understand us because he only spoke English. Another employee intervened. The colleagues here are relatively friendly. Unfortunately, you have to sign up formally here, as conversation is not possible due to the extremely loud music. You feel like you're in a club. This is also how you can generate money. We were pushed offensively by €1.50 and defensively by an additional €4.00. We paid on Sunday, February 16th, 2025 at 4:58 p.m. at your house at Frankfurter Tor 7. We had 2x The Hoppy Meal for €16.75, a non-alcoholic beer for €5.00 [instead of €5.70] and a Fritz Kola which was also charged at €5.00 [instead of the regular €3.50]. We were also denied the popsicles and the little surprise as promised on the menu. “Only children get that,” were the words of her employee. Then the menus should communicate that too. Since this is not the case, we still have a claim to it or the monetary value. An email to you asking for an amicable agreement has not yet been responded to. That's why we have to give such an assessment here. 𝗡𝗮𝗰𝗵𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗴: After the request was made to reach an amicable agreement again by email, I sent another email. That was on the 26th 02:25 at 5:14 p.m. No answer so far, so here's just an empty promise in the hope that someone will rate it differently. But this will alienate you even more. Customer service and customer friendliness 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘀 ☆☆☆

Great place for hangouts but too loud to understand each other

Best experience ever! The staff was super helpful and nice!

Nice bar, but terribly understaffed. Tasty burgers though.

Great food. Great service. Well looked after by Jack. Music was a bit loud for conversation but we coped.

A good hangout spot with a huge variety of craft beer. You're welcome to taste any beer on the menu. Tried out the "Wings Wednesday" all you can eat, no complaints.

Food is good. Unfortunately, it takes a long time until service arrives and you can place your order. Not all service staff speak German - but a lot of things in FHain are international. If you have time and want to drink good beer, this is the place for you. They have delicious wings!

This was our second visit to BrewDog, and while I was hoping for a better experience, I left disappointed. The biggest issue was the price it’s simply too expensive for what you get. I ordered the fried chicken, expecting a classic American-style dish, but it was so overwhelmingly spicy that we couldn’t eat it. There was no warning about the spice level, which made it even more frustrating. That being said, the service was excellent. The staff was very friendly and attentive, which was the highlight of the evening. If only the food matched their warmth! Unfortunately, for the high prices and the lack of balance in the flavors, I don’t think I’ll be returning.

great location something different

We were there for Wings Wednesday. We first got a table that only had 1 1/2 seats because half the space was taken up by the stairs. When we asked if we could have something else, the first (very unfriendly) waiter said 'just look even if it doesn't fit'. Chicken wings were okay, the supposedly hot ones were unfortunately completely soaked in Tabasko and vinegar. I've had much better experiences at other Brewdog locations.

Stylish shop.Unfortunately a very long wait for the food on Sunday.Only two employees for a full restaurant is simply not enough.Burgers good💪The price for fries is a bit brazen, a small cup full of Tuetenpmes.

Expensive beer, totally industrial and not good for what it’s worth. The waiters and personnel are super cool.

The server was really friendly, the food totally delicious. We had a really nice lunch and would definitely come back!

You should have been there. Unfortunately, not all beers can be tested.

The first time will probably also be the last time, at least as far as service is concerned. But first the positive: I have never eaten such a good burger (jackpot): beef, chorizo, blue cheese and a crispy burger bun. Now unfortunately the negative experiences: If you sit upstairs, you take care of the order yourself. So you go to the counter and then realize that German is not spoken at Brewdog. So my grandma wouldn't have a chance. Then the US payment system is maintained here: Tips are offered directly when ordering in the card reader in stages: nothing, 10%, 20%. Too bad I ended up having to wait over an hour for my burger. It came at some point, but without the drink. I would have loved to get my tip back for this great service. Too bad, because the location was nice.

Excellent beer and vibe. A bit noisy if you are looking for a speakeasy bar.

A Wing Disaster and Management Mishap at BrewDog Friedrichshain. As a fan of craft beer and pub fare, I was excited to finally try the wings at BrewDog Friedrichshain. I placed a takeaway order for buffalo wings, and with only a five-minute journey home, my friends and I were eager to dig in. However, our excitement quickly turned to disgust. The wings tasted distinctly off, as if the meat had been left unrefrigerated for an extended period. The unpleasant, almost rancid flavor was so overpowering that I had to spit out the wing, fearing it would make me ill. This was a truly shocking experience – I've never had to do this at any restaurant before. Concerned about a potential food safety issue, I contacted the manager the following day. My intention was simply to alert them to a possible problem in the kitchen. Unfortunately, the manager's response was incredibly disappointing. Instead of showing concern or investigating the matter, they dismissed my feedback and treated me as if I was simply complaining for the sake of it. This dismissive attitude was even more upsetting than the poor quality of the food itself. My friends, who also tasted the wings, share my disappointment and frustration with the manager's reaction. While I can't speak to the rest of the menu, I strongly advise against ordering the buffalo wings at BrewDog Friedrichshain. Furthermore, the management's handling of my complaint suggests a lack of concern for customer feedback and potentially food safety. I sincerely hope this was an isolated incident, but based on my experience, I cannot recommend this establishment. ---------- German ---------- A wing disaster and management fiasco at BrewDog Friedrichshain.

Great place to have a drink with some friends or alone. Pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff. Large beer selection craft + standard. I didn't try the food but it looked great.

Great beer fresh from the tap... The staff was extremely friendly and gave us very good advice... This also included a sample... I can highly recommend the Patriot Burger...

Good place for decent Burgers and Beers. A bit strange layout inside and sitting arrangements but overall a very good experience.

“Great experience, but with one small downside” I visited this restaurant with friends to celebrate a friend’s birthday, and overall, we had a very positive experience. The burgers were delicious, and the menu offers a great variety of options, both for food and drinks, catering to different tastes. The staff was incredibly attentive, professional, and helpful, which made the experience even better than expected. The atmosphere is very pleasant, a good option for meeting friends on weekends or on special occasions. However, one issue was the volume of the music, which was quite loud, forcing us to speak louder to hear each other. This could be a challenge for people with auditory sensitivities or those who prefer something less noisy. I believe it has more to do with the structure of the place, but it’s manageable somehow. Overall, I recommend the restaurant, if they could make an adjustment of the music volume, certainly would make the experience even better!

Tasty beer, good food and a chill atmosphere with a good choice of music. I enjoyed my time and will definitely come back.

I had a great time in this particular Brewdog, the staff especially Evan were so friendly and welcoming - I will definitely be going again, I loved it so much I spent 3 hours here!

Great team, really polite and patient. You don't get such people with bad company culture so cudos to management too.

Interesting beers, but very spicy food. The atmosphere is pleasant.

Interesting beers, but the food is very spicy. The atmosphere is appropriate for a brewery.

Long wait, poor service, wings not recommended. Price performance doesn't fit.

My partner and I had an amazing experience at this bar! The staff are lovely, we were treated to several free beers from them as well as a can to take away when we left. The burgers are also delicious, topped with homemade mayonnaise. Our server even took the initiative to offer us a mayonnaise and cheese mixture, which was a real treat! Few people but we were very well received, and for fans of arcade games, there are two terminals on the upper floor. We highly recommend the Friedrichshain establishment!

It's one of the Touri branches. Beer is the same but costs more. Food was good and, like all Brewdogs I've been to, freshly prepared. The location is designed more for masses, only large (high) tables for 6 people or more, well the bus has to sit somewhere. 🤓 We wanted to take the all you can eat option for the wings. But if it's not possible, you have to make a reservation because supposedly there's always a rush and no seats available. We still had a seat without a reservation and could have ordered wings with our meal, no idea what the blocker for the all you can eat was supposed to be. They tried to use the arcade game gimmick but it's rather sad, there are a few pinball machines and a machine with a racing game by the toilet.

The place si good, the food is good, the beer is obviously good, but it’s really the staff that makes this place special. Alex and Evan (hopefully I got his name right, it was noisy and I already had a few) were exceptionally nice. They gave us beer recommandations, offered to let me charge my phone behind the bar, were ready to take our orders as soon as our glasses were empty, gave me a refill when I spilled my glass… The list goes on, we want to go there again but won’t have time before the end of our stay.

Meh. Beer price is rocketing the sky. But the quality is meh. One bartender who is a waiter… only if you have time

Very pleasant, vibey place that I enjoy going to chill out with friends The only detracting point is that in autumn/winter the place gets extremely hot inside, especially on the second floor

They refused to take our order after 15 minutes wait at the bar because they said they preferred to serve first another big group instead

Terrible service. Bartender was rude and unwilling to sell beer or food

The positive first: place and location perfect, selection of beers large and they taste good too... but then... the service doesn't work at all, self-organization is required, relatively expensive food where the burgers could at least have fries, but what's really annoying is that you can only order in English and do other things...really necessary? There is a national language that should be partly spoken by your staff and should also be part of your culture... it's not hip or however you will justify it... it also has something to do with respect... it's also expected of me when I'm out and about in the world...

Orders are forgotten, food doesn't taste great, there are better Birgers in the city

I love this craft beer bar, every time I'm in Berlin I come here. The bartender is always helpful with beer selection. I recommend it to all beer drinkers.

Great gluten-free options and nice service

We had a table reserved for Saturday evening. When we arrived, nobody seemed capable or willing to show us to our reserved table. After asking three different people at the counter where we were supposed to sit, we ended up finding our table ourselves. Once we were seated for 15 minutes and asked for service, we were told that we wouldn’t get anything to drink in this manner. Later, we asked again—without being aggressive or rude—simply if we could be served. The response was, no, we wouldn’t be served here. So we left. We’ve been to BrewDog in Berlin-Mitte before. The Friedrichshain branch could perhaps learn a thing or two about service and attitude from its sister location. At this point, it’s hard to recommend this place with this kind of staff behavior.

Loud, like every Brewdog in Berlin.

I came here for the all-you-can-eat wings, but they were awful. The wings barely had any sauce, and the chicken tasted like it had been poorly refrigerated or was on the verge of spoiling. The coleslaw was the worst I’ve ever had—it looked orange instead of the usual. On top of that, the waiter took ages to come back for our next round of wings, so we ended up deciding not to order a second batch. Place looked nice tho

We were there when it was almost completely empty and yet the waitress just stood at the counter and chatted instead of doing anything. The wings weren't tasty and the coleslaw was terribly bad. The restaurant was nicely decorated but that was it. Not recommended, I would prefer not to give a star for the food.

Smelly… without any ventilation but playing fancy place… very french prices… not impressed

The buffalo wings were very good, the beer as well. The staff was nice and friendly.

I have been here from last 2 months, and i really liked the buffalo burger and spicy deluxe. And staff are really friendly, Would love to come here again!

Buffalo wings were absolutely inedible. There is actually no service. You always have to go to the bar and order.

Good beer and of course a large selection, self-service, terrible and too loud music. I can't say anything about the food

Taste before you decide which to buy.

Holy crap! Super good! Delicious burgers (Veggie & Fleisssschhh), good beer, which I don't have a headache despite drinking heavily. Plus the dessert (fried Oreos!!!) with the chance to get it for free. Simply great. By the way, all you have to do is win rock-paper-scissors. Super easy: just make paper, the operation makes stone. Running. Possible improvement: For heaven's sake, put less hot sauce on the veggie stack!

Very nice place, the quality of the food is very good. Would come back.

Nice and large and has the space to enjoy some time off

Best burgers, beers and service in town. The staff is amazing, and if you visit, you must try their buffalo burger or wings. Absolutely unreal.

This is my to-go beer place if I want to hang out and spend time with my husband and friends. I like crafted beer, even though it's a bit expensive, but I am seeking for the good beer. Service can be very slow because of the number of visitors come here. Hopefully the management can add the team, so the waiters are not overwhelming. I could understand how hectic it is when the visitors are really crowded, but it's better to take care of the workers as well. I know it's stressful to handle so many people 😅 Location is really strategic. It's next to U Frankfurter Tor and also tram. I go here quite frequent. I like the chicken wings. That adds with the atmosphere which really makes me stay longer to chit chat.

Lots of selection but also proud prices

Usually not a bar food person, but we were quite hungry and randomly stoped here in the afternoon. Turns out their chicken wings are actually super tasty and crispy. I also really liked the blue cheese dip. For some reason they gave us only 6 instead of 7 wings each, but when we asked about it, they just brought us more and even extra. Very nice staff. Would come back!

Unfortunately, our visit to BrewDog at Frankfurter Tor was quite a disappointment. The atmosphere in the restaurant was generally pleasant, but the service left a lot to be desired. It took forever for someone to take our order, and then the drinks came much later than expected. We were particularly looking forward to the “All You Can Eat” chicken wings offer, but we were disappointed here too. The rounds came way too late, so we only got three rounds of wings in the two hours. This wasn't because we ate slowly, but because of the extremely long waiting times. You get the feeling that you're deliberately playing for time, which doesn't really make the offer worth it. Overall, the price-performance ratio here is not right at all and unfortunately I cannot recommend the BrewDog.

Wings Wednesday = Scam. If it's American-style marketing, then the portions/frequency must also be appropriate at the start. Went out after 2 hours, still hungry after "all you can eat" because understaffed or just wanted scam. Definitely not suitable for a grumpy cheat day junk food outing - rather frustrating. Wings tasty, but quantity just as moderate consumer deception.

You have to make a reservation for the Wednesday wing in advance otherwise they won't sell you 😪

Burgers and beer are really excellent and delicious, the decor is attractive, but it is so incredibly loud that it borders on bodily harm. You can't have a conversation - it's like you're sitting directly on one of the speakers in the club. Added to this is the roar of the other dinner parties, who apparently want to drown out the music, which is then turned up even louder. Just crazy. The food, on the other hand, is great - except for one side dish, namely chickpeas with chili flakes, which are simply unseasoned and bland straight from the can.

It's okay but has no real flair and is too expensive. A clear no.

Great location... fine selection of beers... quite a big space so easy get a seat in a quiet spot during the day...

Location good but not very comfortable. Beer is delicious as always, prices are a little higher. You don't really know how much you're getting for what and the staff is terrible, the biggest negative here. They even ran after me because they said they hadn't paid for one of the beers, but we had while they were very stressed and unfriendly.

Only went in for a beer on my birthday. The IPAs were quite good. Next time I will try the food.

Delicious wings on Wings Wednesday. I ate 50 of them.

I don’t really have a point of coming back here. The prices are really unbelievable for the food you can get. The staff is OK. I was there on Wednesday for the all you can eat wings, we were so early in the day we were practically the only table. We had no idea that all you can eat is timed. The portions took forever to arrive and they were so small. For all you can eat event, I was expecting to leave with a full stomach. To give us a limited time to eat and then take half an hour for every plate when the wings are clearly frozen, just unbelievable. Not only are the portions small, so are the wings. I’m not sure what bird is that small. Literally zero point to come back here. Another eye sore of a building.

You order at the counter and the prices are a bit mixed. Some tables hadn't been cleared yet and it took a while. When ordering with card payment, you will be asked to tip at the card reader right from the start. Wrong time, because you don't know yet whether it's going to be good. Quite okay and there is pinball and a slot machine. Could be cleaner.

As described here, the service is actually a disaster. Unfriendly and not very motivated. Fries were completely over salted. Just don't order. 2 stars only because of the good selection of beers.

Nice place and friendly barman. We did enjoyed it very much. Nice beers and ok food…obviously.

I was up there in the duplex. It was incredibly warm and stuffy even though it was 10 degrees outside. the air conditioning was off. What's that supposed to mean? Why are we as customers hated so much even though we spend more than €7 on a beer???

In the Frankfurter Tor area this is certainly one of the places that attracts the most attention. Once inside, however, even though it was a Friday evening, the place seemed a bit dull. No one welcomed us and it was not clear how to place the order. In the end I understood that everything had to be done directly at the counter where they serve the drinks. Ordered two burgers (with double meat) which totaled 35 euros (slightly expensive). Only one sandwich arrived at first and after 5 minutes the other was missing. The meat was overcooked and they forgot to put cheddar (in one of them). Objectively, based on what I saw, I don't know if I would go back. Quality of stuff not great. Expensive prices, even for certain beers. Total for two sandwiches, two beers: 50-something euros.

The bathrooms had a horribly strong piss smell. Also incredibly loud somehow even when there weren't that many people. The bare concrete and shape of the room really amplifies sounds

"All You Can Eat Wings" - The chicken wings are of poor quality, and the best parts are often missing. Additionally, the sauce costs extra. Surprisingly, KFC offers a superior experience, which is rather disappointing. Overall, Brew Dog appears to be nothing more than a money-making trap, with inauthentic offerings, untrained staff, and a poor understanding of German. They are overhyped on social media, seemingly run by investors with little to no kitchen experience, and the food is subpar. It's a poor representation of American cuisine. Sorry Brew Dog but you can do better.

Quite the busy bar and restaurant, with a bustling and lovely atmosphere. Good variety of craft beers and nice seating areas with friendly servers. Cool bar!

Quite expensive, but very tasty

Great place for food and drinks. I didn't like the burger sauce. But the rest was great.

Helpful and knowledgeable staff along with a great selection of beers.

Booked a table for 12 noon. Went in shortly afterwards. Completely empty. The employee was more concerned with something else than greeting us, yes, actively ignoring us. After 5 minutes of pointless waiting at the table we left. This store doesn't want guests. Once and never again!

waited two hours for one burger, fries, and wings. absolutely pathetic kitchen staff / service. put a damper on the entire evening and will never go there again. food was also extremely mid and expensive.

Wings were very dry, except being salty, not much flavor. Waiting time for wings was too long. Not recommend

Good beer (arrives quickly), burgers nice (take a long time), fries disappointing (take a very, very long time). 45 minutes waiting time for food (ordered food twice, waited 45 minutes each time). When asked several times, they always said “yo is coming soon”. Not OK for the price. Then at least a hint that it will take longer. At least we weren't insulted.

The chickens are smaller in September

Excellent BrewDog! Plenty of seating, and fast service. Good people watching location since it is close to public transportation.

Lots of really good beer. Was there in the middle of the day when it was completely empty

we don't know has happened to this Brew Dog location. Used to come frequently for the always updated beer list and food. We've been 4 times this year and it was disappointing each time, the beer list has never been updated, boring beer choices on offer, (Punk IPA, Hazy Jane...) the beer menu is getting smaller and smaller, and the beer isn't really cold, I had to ask for ice cubes. Last time there was a 30 minute wait for wings when the place was empty in the afternoon. We won't be going again this year, will check again next summer to see if anything has been improved. Lots of other breweries have opened in the area. This brew dog location started off strong, don't know what happened..

Was there for the wing night. Really great service and food

I was here with a few friends over the weekend and I must say this is probably the worst food in Berlin, I have ever received. Right from the dirty tables that are so sticky to the sub par burgers and over cooked sweet potato fries ( lump ), everything was horrible here. I have visited your establishment a few times over the last months and on every visit your food is appalling and quality isn't good. Especially after coming here and spending a fair amount of money on food, this is not how you treat customers after nearly paying 20 euros to 30 euros for food. The brewdog outlet here can't even keep your toilets clean, they are disgusting to use and smell horrible. This clearly shows huge incompetence in the kitchen and establishment management. Honestly I hope in time you get better managers and competent chefs and replace the current ones and address these issues soon. The service is also mediocre, except for the super friendly and wonderful Latin guy...there's nothing else good about this restaurant when it comes to service and food. What I fail to understand is how can they honestly mess up wings and fries and over cook and fry them and are you bathing it with sauce ? It's so mushy and disgusting.

We had a very pleasant experience in Brewdog Fredickschain for Chicken Wings Wednesday, the food was fabulous, the staff were very friendly and courteous and the atmosphere and beer were mighty. We will be back.

Nice place with a lot of different and interesting beers, the staff is nice and they are ready to help you find the one that is for you. Highly recommend.

Our favorite pleace for a saturday night. Good food and super nice staff Thanks Maru ❤
