Cafe Del Sol Göttingen in Göttingen

Super friendly and attentive service, food was excellent.

The best Spanish restaurant between Hanover and Kassel. Superb service and a great atmosphere. A top choice.

I always enjoy coming here. Great food and a great atmosphere.

Unfortunately, the service has declined considerably and the food wasn't hot.

The food was excellent. The drinks were okay. The service was a bit too "cool" for my taste.

As always, a cozy atmosphere and delicious food. Thank you. See you again soon.

It was delicious. We'll definitely come back again!

January 10, 2026, 8:30 PM My girlfriend and I spontaneously decided to go out for dinner, as she had recommended Café del Sol. We went into the café in good spirits and asked if they had a table for two. The small, dark-haired woman said she'd check if there was a free seat. Instead, she went to the counter to bring an order to our table. A minute or two later, (presumably the owner) came around the corner with a sheet of paper, no greeting or anything, just a quick note saying we were looking for a table. He led us to a table for two where we were then allowed to sit down. We weren't asked about drinks until 10 minutes later, and we weren't exactly quick about it. We both ordered the "Schnitzel del Sol" with two extra servings of mayo and ketchup, as well as one serving of sour cream and one serving of truffle mayo. The meal took an hour... for two schnitzels and fries... We asked a short time later where our extra sauces were. The already rather rude reply from the supposed manager was, "Do you still want them, or do you just not want them on the bill?" On principle, we still wanted them. We both finished our "1-hour schnitzel" in a very bad mood. I should also mention that our drinks sat empty for over 30 minutes without anyone asking about them, let alone walking past us. Now to the end of it all. We wanted to pay and were given the option to leave a tip, which was visible beforehand but wasn't an option for us. We clicked on "no tip," and the waiter's very annoyed reply was, "Thank you for that too," which is absolutely unacceptable. I didn't experience any of the recommended service or food at all. Once was enough; even my local kebab shop is nicer...

It's outrageous to offer such an icy parking lot; they know it's snowing and aren't able to inform a company. Snow is one thing, but this is unacceptable.

We had a fantastic breakfast! Top-notch!

We visited Cafe del Sol on a Wednesday evening to celebrate a birthday. We had reserved a table. We were warmly greeted at the entrance and immediately shown to our reserved table. The drinks and menus were already on the table, and we took a look. The friendly server arrived a few minutes later and took our order. The drinks were served immediately. The delicious and flavorful food was also served promptly. I especially liked that you can customize your burgers with your own toppings. Despite the large size of the room, the noise level was very pleasant, and it was easy to have a conversation. The seating was also very comfortable. We will definitely be back soon.

We came for breakfast. It was very tasty, the service was good, and the staff were friendly! However, we both wanted a breakfast without sausage and similar items, which proved rather difficult. Outside of the buffet, unfortunately, you could only order a breakfast with sausage, without being offered any alternatives. I think the café should reconsider this. For example, instead of salami and meat salad, they could offer an extra slice of cheese and salmon.

It's a good place to sit for business in the mornings, as it's quiet. In the evenings, the noise level increases.

We had breakfast there on New Year's Eve morning. At €14.90, it was cheaper than at the hotel. Drinks weren't included, but the breakfast was very plentiful! You should book online as it gets very busy. In the summer, there are good outdoor seating options. The food was delicious, and the service was attentive.

Amazing atmosphere, thought-through and super kids-friendly, really tasty food - and even e-charging close nearby ;)

Basic fast food. The chicken and fries were clearly deep-fried convenience products, as was the lasagna. Despite this, there was a long wait for the food to arrive. And this was outside of normal lunchtime hours.

I was there this evening with my dog. Unfortunately, only a high table was available at first, so I was allowed to sit there. After a short while, I was asked if I would prefer to sit at a lower table with my dog. I was very grateful for that. Great and friendly staff. Delicious food. Dogs are very welcome.

The service was super friendly and the atmosphere was lovely. My only criticism is that I ordered the baked mini potatoes and there was hardly any arugula on them. Otherwise, everything was great.

Standard dishes, but at a very reasonable price. Extremely friendly service; I can't confirm any complaints about long waiting times.

Fast and very friendly service. An excellent selection of great meals, and very tasty!

We were passing through and wanted to order something to take away for the rest of our journey. Unfortunately, we didn't get what we ordered, but it was still tasty, even though the portion was very small (we ordered the largest pizza they had so we could share it, and received a pinsa for €17). Our plan was to change our daughter's diaper and clothes. The changing table was in the disabled toilet. It smelled awful and was filthy. The changing mat was dirty, hard, and unpadded. It was unbearable in that room, so I changed and dressed my daughter standing up in the women's toilet. We usually really enjoy the food at Café del Sol, but we wouldn't come back here.

We were a group of eight for our Christmas party. We were seated right by the entrance next to the reception, which didn't exactly enhance the atmosphere. The food arrived very quickly, and the first round of drinks was also served promptly. The food was adequate, as expected from a restaurant, but typical of franchises, like everywhere else. Nothing special, but acceptable for the price. Further orders took a very, very long time. Sometimes drinks were forgotten but still charged, and other times we waited ages before being asked if we wanted anything else. We certainly would have ordered several more rounds. To top it all off, when it came time to pay, they rudely didn't give us any change and simply assumed the remaining amount was meant as a tip. Seriously?! At a Christmas party, you first need a proper bill, and then you can tip. To assume that's the case is absolutely unacceptable and an outrage. Very disappointed with the waiter.

Delicious food, nice atmosphere, sometimes too loud, good parking, friendly service

We stopped here for a break on our way home. It was a Sunday around 3 pm, and it wasn't very busy, so we got a table right away. The service was quick, and the food arrived very promptly after we ordered. We opted for a burger with a side salad and pasta Napoli with extra chicken breast. The pasta was a bit overcooked and quite soft, but it tasted good. The burger was delicious. Unfortunately, the bun was cold, and the side salad (which cost extra) was tiny, but all in all, we were satisfied. We'll definitely come back for a stop on our trip, as the price-performance ratio was quite good.

So, objectively speaking, the ambiance was very nice, just as expected. The service was friendly, though occasionally a bit slow considering the number of guests. The food was once again absolutely fantastic. Of course, this assessment of the service is just a snapshot in time and therefore probably not entirely accurate. The day's business and the previous occupancy level naturally play a significant role, which of course remains hidden from view. All in all, it was a very pleasant visit!

I'm usually a Café de Sol fan, but this kind of behavior is really starting to make me sick. I can't complain about the food, but the service is absolutely terrible. They're incredibly friendly and nice at first, but as soon as it's time to pay and you don't leave a tip, you don't even get a thank you, goodbye, or anything else. Shouldn't they be happy that customers come back often instead of acting like this when you don't leave a tip?! Unfortunately, you can't tip every time these days; everyone knows how expensive everything has become. This is truly awful. I'm seriously considering avoiding Café de Sol in the future.

We had a fantastic time! The food, service, and atmosphere were amazing.

On December 3rd, 2025, I went to Café Del Sol in Göttingen with my friends to celebrate my birthday, but unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. The employee who took our order seemed unfriendly and unprofessional. The situation was so unpleasant that we left our order and left the café without ordering anything to drink. For a special occasion, I really would have expected better service. I hope that customer service is urgently improved.

I apologize in advance for the negative feedback. My friends and I were at Café del Sol two hours ago and wanted to order three Blueberry Piña Coladas, but they were non-alcoholic. The waitress, about 165 cm tall with black hair and pigtails, told us the price was the same whether it was alcoholic or not. She was really unfriendly and gave us terrible service. As a restaurant owner and waitress myself, I know how to treat guests if you want to satisfy them and win them over as regulars. But I can understand why she wouldn't have served us if the owner had been there. She just put our drinks on the table without even saying "please" or "enjoy your meal." I simply said "thank you," but unfortunately, she didn't respond. We just left our drinks full, paid, and walked away. The cashier, on the other hand, was very friendly. I told her everything. I hope things will improve in the future. But I'm definitely never going back there.

🚨 Rating: 0/5 – Terrible experience, racist and disrespectful service! We went to this café to celebrate my friend's birthday, and our experience was the worst imaginable. There were four of us, yet we received absolutely no respect or appreciation. The server was blatantly racist; her behavior was cold, harsh, and insulting. When we ordered non-alcoholic drinks, she mocked the price, stating clearly, "The price isn't going to change, don't even think about it." Later, when she brought the drinks, she slammed the glasses down on the table as if to humiliate us, without even saying "please." When we thanked her for the service, she completely ignored us, making us feel utterly unwelcome. The entire experience demonstrates that this café does not respect its customers, does not value their presence, and operates with clear discrimination. Frankly, anyone who values ​​respectful service and proper treatment should avoid this café. There are hundreds of places that offer far better hospitality and respect.

🚨 STRONG WARNING: 0/10 – TERRIBLE! The service at this café was catastrophic: cold, careless, disrespectful, and insulting. No greeting, no smile, no respect – you feel completely unwelcome. This place doesn't deserve a single customer! Anyone who values ​​respect and friendly service should avoid this café at all costs. The experience was so awful that you wonder how this café is even allowed to exist.

Since we were standing very close to the speakers, the music was very loud. Otherwise, however, it was a very pleasant evening. The service was excellent and everything was served in a reasonable amount of time.

Goated Playlist, staff and menu 🙏🙏

Excellent food at good prices and first-class service, even without a reservation!

While on a business trip, I stopped for breakfast next to a Supercharger. The staff was very friendly, the atmosphere was pleasant and quiet, and the price/performance ratio is good!

Lovely shop, friendly and fast service, and the food was delicious. We'll gladly come again.

Great atmosphere and friendly service. Food and drinks of good, tasty quality!

I really enjoyed it. The only downside was that the service staff wasn't the fastest. I would have liked to have another beer or two.

A really cool location. Sometimes the music is a bit loud if you want to have a conversation. But I really enjoy going there. The food is good and the prices aren't too high.

It was a lovely evening with excellent service! The food was superb and the drinks were exceptional!

Delicious food and incredibly friendly staff. I'd gladly come again.

Not for me at all. Doesn't deserve a single star in any category. Will definitely not be coming back.

We were very impressed. The menu offered a wide variety of dishes, far from the usual fare. I also want to mention the teas...and the lovely, friendly service. Thank you so much.

It was nice there, although the staff weren't very service-oriented.

Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed.

Whenever we visit Göttingen, we stop by Café del Sol. It's a fantastic place for us country folk. The breakfast menu is fantastic. A bit pricey, though. We'd love to come back.

Decent café, nice terrace every now and then

Always nice to eat there. Very tasty food, haven't had a single dish I didn't like! Unfortunately, the prices have increased, which is why my review doesn't get 5 stars. Otherwise, great!

Nice restaurant with very friendly staff and very good food

Very friendly staff. Excellent food selection. We were there for brunch. Parking is available. We had a table reservation. It was quite busy, so the noise level was challenging, but everyone experiences it differently. I'd be happy to come back again. The price is completely reasonable.

Much too loud. The food tasted like it had no seasoning.

I came from Kassel with my wife in 2017. The atmosphere and service are excellent. I highly recommend it.

It was my first time here. Delicious... a pleasant guest at my side. Eva, my love.

We were there for Sunday brunch. It was truly delicious. A large selection. There was a bit of everything. The staff was very friendly. We'd love to come back.

Ordered breakfast today and it was super delicious😋😋😋

Well-intentioned 3 stars. Unfortunately, this was our last visit there. The price-performance ratio was simply disproportionate! The taste and quantity have deteriorated, but the price has gotten worse. The drinks don't taste good either, or the mixes are awful. The Del Sol, as I knew it from the beginning, is unfortunately no longer there!

On Saturday, I spent the last warm late summer evening on the terrace with friends; it was lovely again. I found the food and the activities very inviting, as well as the lounge atmosphere! We didn't have a reservation, but we still got a great spot.

I apologize in advance for such negative feedback, but my dinner was also ruined. I ordered a Caesar salad... but they just brought me lettuce leaves smothered in a supermarket-bought "Caesar" sauce, with fried chicken pieces and three huge pieces of bread. It's supposed to be Caesar salad, and... it cost 15 euros, which, of course, isn't worth it at all. My mood was completely ruined. I'd also like to note that the place where we were sitting was littered with vomit, and no one cleaned it up.

Since the coronavirus pandemic, I've been a regular at various Café Del Sols. The service is good almost everywhere; in Göttingen, the overall package of service, cuisine, and ambiance is top-notch. Whether I drop in in the evening after a busy day or during my lunch break, the team works together at a high level. The managers and shift managers, in particular, lead their teams with a positive attitude. Unfortunately, I see this too rarely in my professional environment. You've created a place that you can only leave in a good mood.

We stopped here on the way back from a short trip, very close to the A7. We sat on the terrace with the dog and drank a coffee. It was very good. My husband's iced coffee was also good. We didn't eat anything.

We were there for the breakfast buffet: It was a dream at a very fair price. Drinks are extra. A selection of everything you'd expect.

The food is very good but the service is often not attentive enough, a glass should not be left empty for 20 minutes without being asked

We use the Cafe del Sol every few years when we're passing through, either for breakfast or, like today, for dinner.

A very trendy restaurant if you feel the vibe. I felt the vibe, but not enough in my stomach. The portions are rather meager, but the taste is still recommendable. I'm still undecided about whether I'll come back.

Fabian was a super friendly server, and the café has a very cozy atmosphere. We ordered the Pinsa Original with Serrano just before closing; it arrived quickly and tasted excellent.

The ambiance and staff are still impressive. Unfortunately, the quality of the food has declined somewhat.

The food is delicious, with good service and a pleasant atmosphere. I'd happily return.

A very friendly welcome with several seating recommendations – a great start! Shortly afterward, a friendly request for drinks was made, which were served promptly and attentively. Even when ordering food, individual questions and requests were handled professionally. The food was consistently delicious and lovingly presented. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable visit – highly recommended!

Good service, a well-balanced menu, and a pleasant atmosphere. Ideal for a break.

We went there for breakfast and were not disappointed. The atmosphere is great, the service is very friendly, and the food selection is perfectly adequate. Oh yeah, and it was delicious, too 🤗.

Terrible food! I had a sallad that was mostly dressing.

Good selection at Sunday brunch: delicious cold dishes, fruit, good scrambled eggs, and salad/antipasta. The hot dishes were unfortunately disappointing; we would have preferred pinsa or small schnitzel, for example. The selection was limited to tortellini and rice with chicken. In the future, we'd rather try the Saturday buffet for €6 less.

A very nice, stylishly decorated restaurant. Delicious food, with something for everyone. Friendly, always prompt service. We'd be happy to come back.

I really enjoy being here. There's something to eat and drink for everyone. You can easily spend a few hours here—whether inside or outside. The breakfast buffet selection is good. Everything is fresh, including their own creations, and there's something for everyone. I highly recommend it! Unfortunately, the music is often very loud, so you feel like you're shouting at each other while talking.

The tables have grooves where all the old crumbs are trapped. I find it unpleasant. The food is dripping with grease. It sat heavily on my stomach. I won't be back.

Café del Sol, in fact. It was amazing and exactly as we expected.

Good food and friendly service.

A cozy restaurant with simply excellent food! Lots of different options, so something for everyone. One small drawback: we sat at a table that hadn't been cleaned for a long time. So we moved to a different table. And we had to wait a long time before we could order.

Good food, nice ambiance, and friendly staff. Good value for money.

The food is average convenience food at above-average prices and even the fries with mayo do not taste good

Great food! Great kids' menu! Great service! Cool building and cool atmosphere

Very large selection of food, nice atmosphere, we would be happy to come back.

Simply beautiful and super great staff

Very nice, absolutely recommended

Nice restaurant on the outskirts of town. Like all new restaurants, burgers, pizza/pinsa, meat dishes, and salads. Nothing really unique in my opinion.

Yes, I will recommend it to others

Open for breakfast from 9 a.m. Highly recommended.

Recommended, food is good, staff quick and very friendly, would go back 👍🏻✌🏻

Beautiful ambiance, like any Café del Sol. Only three stars because of the dilapidated carpets... Very friendly, attentive service. Thanks to Elias!!! If you look at the carpets upstairs, you'll notice that any doormat in an old train station bar is cleaner. The original color is no longer visible. Where is the hygiene, please? Doesn't a health department care about a mango like that? THANKS FOR THE PROMPT REPLY! WE WENT THERE AGAIN A FEW DAYS AGO AND THERE WERE NEW CARPETS UPPER PART OF THE RESTAURANT. RESPECT, THAT'S WHAT I CALL CRITICAL!!!

We met for breakfast in the morning and were free to choose our own table. The service team was attentive, and we enjoyed a delicious breakfast. After a long stroll through Göttingen's city center, we returned for the evening. We sat on the large outdoor terrace in the sunshine and relaxed at the end of the day. Even though we were there at the peak of dinner time and didn't want to eat anything, we weren't rushed but were served very friendly. Thank you for the service. The location is perfect, by the way, near the motorway entrance. We'll be back.

You can sit comfortably, but the price-performance ratio is not right… this is my iced chocolate without chocolate

Conveniently located, friendly service, excellent food, reasonable prices. Plenty of parking right outside.

The service staff was very friendly and attentive. The food was beautifully presented, and I really enjoyed it. 👍 I give it five stars. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Healthy options. Also vegan options

Overpriced crap food made from cheap poor ingredients. Specials on the menu included lots of “extra add ons” on the picture, add-ons like small mayonnaise, small ketchup and special sweet potato fries, which only were apparent on the bill. 14.90€ turned into €20.40 For clarification, non extras were mentioned on the so-called specials. Just one price and a picture of the special dish served with the extra add-ons not included in the advertised price. €3.4 for 0.25l water!! Imagine paying for ketchup in a restaurant with fries !! Outrageous. Shame on you.

One of Göttingen's highlights. Definitely worth a visit, and the schnitzels are delicious.

I was there on the hottest day (July 2, 2025)—who knows what got into me? 😅🥵 But the food was excellent. At the end, I had a scoop of ice cream from the two-time world champion. 💣 Fantastic! I'd love to go again! 😉👌🏼

We stopped to charge our EV on a roadtrip and were met with a kind welcome and showed the restroom. We decided to have some drinks and next time we pass by I’d love to try the food too, the pinsas looked very tasty and the restaurant was nicely decorated.

Only conditionally recommended. The food was very tasty and the price was right. Visually, the ambiance is quite appealing, but the noise level is extremely disturbing. It's impossible to have a conversation with your neighbor at a normal volume. We were there on Sunday lunchtime, and the leftovers from the breakfast buffet were being cleared away with a loud clatter; something like that could definitely be done more quietly – especially when guests are sitting nearby. Tables and chairs were being loudly moved around, cutlery was being put away... On top of that, there was nonstop music. The restrooms were very cramped and not particularly clean. It's a shame, but we won't be going there again.

We're currently sitting down for lunch and are delighted by the friendly service and the exceptionally delicious lunch dishes. In our case: barbecue chicken wings and aljo olio with shrimp. The very diverse cuisine is striking. We've already returned today after yesterday's sumptuous and delicious breakfast. Very spacious and relaxing location. Cafe del 🔆 Göttingen
