HOCH2 - Café, Bar & Burger in Donaueschingen

An imposition on all levels. The staff is incredibly arrogant and shows no respect for the guests - as a paying customer you feel like a nuisance. Anyone who treats their guests like this simply doesn't deserve their visit. This was definitely my last step over that doorstep! The fact that the owner doesn't change anything despite numerous catastrophic reviews speaks volumes. And the food? Underground! Overpriced! Frozen food in its purest form, tasteless, loveless and an insult to every palate. There's just nothing wrong here.

The service was great, big thanks to Balim 🥰. Our dog thanks you for the bowl of water 🐶😉😊 Doris & Martina from Zuben CH (Lake Constance)

Super well decorated, great staff and honestly great quality of food!!!

Very nice and friendly atmosphere, Friendly staff.

I usually always had burgers and this time currywurst with salad and shared fries with my girlfriend. It was very tasty, but there was a lot of sauce. When we asked if we could get bread with it, we got it straight away and it was even warm. I really enjoy going to Twist Hoch 2 and just eating or drinking something.

Everything here is made with a lot of love - a pure taste experience! This was the best burger and fries. Great service - very friendly, accommodating and fun to have! You simply HAVE to go here! We'll be back🙂

I've been there several times and always been satisfied, but when I was there at lunchtime today, not at all. The staff was unfriendly☹️. The menu that I usually ordered was no longer available and there was no good alternative either👎🏻. We also no longer accept coins🙁. I probably won't come anymore.

Extremely delicious Nice music Great service

Very good burgers, priced at the upper pain limit. Ok for the price but somehow overpriced.

Extremely friendly service - delicious burgers and fair prices

Very good food and friendly service

In the immediate vicinity of the source of the Danube, a small, clean and cozy restaurant with friendly service. Even if it's not a burger, the currywurst with bread is absolutely amazing.

The best burgers south of Norpol, great location and the nicest service team in the universe😊😊😊

Very nice service, delicious food. A very good tip.

Very nice service with very good food. All around a great restaurant. Highly recommended ☺️

mega tasty and big burgers. Very friendly and fast service. We'd love to come back!

Bedienung sehr unfreundlich und herablassend obwohl sie selber die sind auf die man herablassen schauen könnte

The guys tonight were really great. You really don't see this kind of service anymore. You can tell that they put their heart and soul into it and are passionate about it. The location and the drinks were really great. We like to come back again and again

The boys tonight were passionate about it. Super nice staff. Very accommodating. The toilets are super clean! When these guys are working we'll be happy to come back!

Friendly, courteous and fast service even though it was very busy. Food & drinks super delicious!!! Any time!

Great little burger place with a nice selection. I was hoping for a little more for the price. The buns are good but unfortunately not homemade. The chili cheese sauce with jalapenos wasn't homemade either. The burgers are ok, but still have room for improvement. Still a great restaurant with very good service

The burgers are good, fries and mozza sticks are damn tasty. The service is very friendly and the atmosphere is great.

I ordered a crunchy burger with fries and mozzarella sticks from the menu. There is no drink in the menu and you pay €20. I liked it and Helal Food is also offered here. Nevertheless, for me the price is unusually overpriced! Service was very nice and friendly. Ambiance was modern, well lit and cozy. Unfortunately, in my opinion there is hardly a large selection in Donaueschingen, but this store is recommended. Reserve in advance!

We had dinner here at the end of our team meeting. Great quality and everything very fresh and hot. Top service and highly recommended from our side. We'd love to come back.

Burgerrestaurant. Man kann auch sehr schön draußen sitzen. Burger sind nicht gerade preiswert. Haben eine tolle Currywurst gegessen. Ist eher "eintopfmäßig" zubereitet. Nach Aussage der Bedienung selbst ausgedacht. Sehr nette Bedienung. Auch die Pommes sind sehr zu empfehlen.

Mega delicious burgers from the lunch menu. I would love to come here again

I've been there a few times too. I find the staff to be aloof. The food was mediocre, if anything a step below. I will not visit the store again in the future. Danger !!! The boss is incapable of criticism and is threatening legal consequences, as seen in several answers. That's how it is when you have a weak character, are unable to take criticism and are looking for maximum profit maximization!

I can't understand the positive reviews for this store. The owner is extremely arrogant and seems to consider himself the center of the world. The food is average at best. Anyone who talks about good cuisine here has obviously never tried really high-quality food. The burgers here are hardly better than what you'd get at a fast food restaurant - the only difference is the lack of cardboard packaging. If you served this burger in a McDonald’s package, no one would notice the difference. What was particularly annoying was the fact that I was offered an additional sauce, which was then simply added to the bill without comment. This is just petty and anti-customer. I have rarely experienced such stingy treatment of customers. This store is definitely out of the question for me. If you really appreciate good burgers and honest service, you should go to DoubleSix. There you know what you are getting – not just in terms of the food, but also in terms of the excellent service. Everything is just right at DoubleSix: the food is high quality and the owner knows how to appreciate his guests. Here you really get something for your money.

The tomato and mozzarella salad was very good.

Valim is a super brilliant service. Very, very friendly and very accommodating. We would love to come back. The burgers were very, very tasty and large.

It's better not to apply there, came twice as a trial for several hours, then was ignored for weeks. I heard someone else did the same thing. eating is bad too

We were there on Saturday evening. Very nice atmosphere. Valim was our waiter. He is very friendly and considerate. We can highly recommend this restaurant. Drinks are very good.

We were there with a large group for burgers. The food tasted great and the portions were big enough for the price. So value for money is great :) the service could have been a little faster, although that could also be due to the kitchen - you never know. We definitely waited a good hour for food. Therefore one star deducted, otherwise really great.

Top experience, from the food to the ambience to the service. Highly recommended if you are in the area. The Karls Burger is definitely in my top 5, out of about 30 that I have eaten in other countries or cities so far.🤌🏻🍔

Au bar Hoch2 de Donaueschingen, on mange d'excellents burgers, classiques, végé, halal, etc. C'est servi par une équipe jeune, efficace et sympathique, sans attente ni chichis. La carte est variée et originale (notamment du côté des menus), la bière est savoureuse (évidemment!) et l'ambiance joyeusement sereine. Attention, comme souvent en Allemagne, les "pommes" (les frites) sont commandées à part, mais vous en verrez plusieurs variétés sur la carte. Un excellent rapport qualité-prix!

Super adresse pour un déjeuner. Il faut goûter la bière à la banane c’est excellent. Personnel très serviable. Je trouve dommage que les steaks des burger soit trop cuit.

Nice restaurant with outdoor dining. We enjoyed it.

Very good food, nice ambience, great and friendly service. Clear recommendation! Alim served us and is clearly employee of the month! ☺️

Valim is a super nice guy. Finally a service person who does the job with passion. We always enjoy coming back.

Mega tasty. We would love to come to you

We really enjoyed both the vegan nuggets and the vegan burgers. Overall, a solid vegan selection.

Update 7/27/24: If delivery is offered, this should also be true! I have now heard from several friends that everyone was called immediately and asked to pick them up. Me too! Orders were then canceled rather than delivered! After several weeks, the delivery offer should at least be changed! It's actually a matter for the boss ;) Update: After some time we decided to give Twist Hoch 2 another chance. Conclusion: The mozzarella sticks were completely different than described. No trace of the beer batter, instead a herb breading. They looked and tasted exactly like the mozzarella sticks that you can buy at Lidl or Edeka for a lot less money! The burger, whose price was the only juicy thing, was clearly from the frozen food range! Full of cartilage, still very pink in the middle and tasted cheap overall. So sorry, all the 5 star reviews don't agree at all. Old: The food was actually delicious, but in some deliveries something was either missing or mixed up. It wasn't always possible to reach someone by phone and when you did, you could hear the staff from the kitchen shouting expletives and only get a not very convincing apology. That was our last meal for a long time. Thanks! And you don't have to come back with the standard answer "such a review is not common"!

Good burgers and salads. Good atmosphere and very pleasant treatment.

We had to wait a bit for our food, but it was worth it. They were the tastiest burgers we've eaten so far.

The food was really good, tasty burgers, deliciously spicy Buffalo Wings, but they could’ve had some ranch for it.

Our visit here was a while ago, but the food is really delicious, for me one of the best burgers in the area. We've ordered there several times and had it delivered, and every time the food was very warm to extremely hot (delivery to Hüfingen), unfortunately some other burgers don't sell here 😅 (don't mention any names here 😅) Definitely come and order from you more often 🍔

Cozy bistro. Nice to sit and have everything from coffee to cocktails to small dishes.

As already mentioned many times, the service is very friendly. But I can't recommend what you get with your meal. A colorful mix from the Metro TK landscape with dry meat, the simplest veggie patty and dry buns. At 20 euros for the special burgers without fries (which were still the highlight), I just expect more love for the product.

Everything was perfect, the ambience as well as the food and drinks.

I ate there for the first time today with my boyfriend (recommendation from a friend). We loved the burgers. It was very juicy and tasty. Service was very nice. We will come back.

Delicious burgers. Friendly staff. If there is a problem, like too much salt in a sauce, you get a free alternative. It wasn't a complaint, we just noticed it when we left something behind and said too much for us personally. I think the selection and prices are fair.

Food was good. Nice seating outside

We pass by here often. We love the Pils poured with love and the super generous Aperol Spriz. Staff *****, the burgers are also amazing. We can only recommend the Twist Hoch 2.

To be honest, I don't understand the reviews about the burgers. We actually got burgers there several times a week during Corona and were always very satisfied. At some point, however, the meat supplier or the preparation changed. I find the beef burgers and the meat they contain inedible. A hard, fried shoe sole. Today we tested again after less than a year and were again very disappointed. For the same money you can get real premium burgers with first-class meat and homemade buns in a district of DS. The chicken burger, on the other hand, is pretty good. Addendum: As written, we picked up the burgers, so of course I didn't know what it tasted like until we got home. I also asked you about it in the store about a year ago and was met with a lack of understanding 😉

Innovative menu! Food was perfect. The service can still be improved a bit, after we had already finished eating for 15 minutes and no one came by, we had to go in ourselves to pay.

It was ok, the mustard taste was a bit too strong… noticed by three people. Price wise, a bit high.

Friendly service, Proportions are completely okay, the quality is also good and it tastes good 😉. Come by again one day. Recommended 👍 😉

Delicious burgers and good staff.

Super cool owner, great burgers, great service.

Burger was great. Staff was very, very friendly

It was the most beautifully served burger I have ever tasted. Super nice staff and everything was clean. Only to be recommended! ☀️☀️☀️

Very nice evening. Very friendly staff. We'd love to come back.

Very tastefully decorated. You immediately feel comfortable. Food great!

I wanted to order a cafe at 10 p.m., there was no more "machine was already cleaned", then ordered a cola, order was forgotten because you wasted time with the customers. At 11 p.m. you were "cashed in" and taken out, even though it was open until 11:30 p.m. Ok, then not again.

We ate burgers today, they were all delicious! The fry's (fries) and nuggets are also really great. Great service, nice ambience. We will be back! :)

Delicious burgers - friendly service

I visited this store alone. In a completely empty shop I was seated at the table with the only two other guests sitting next to it. The confusing menu, which looked completely different than the one online, confused me. I ordered a water. As a 185cm, 95kg man, I received a 0.2l bottle. When I asked, I was given a 0.75 bottle as the only other option. I ordered a small mixed salad. The question “Balsamic or vinegar oil?” I answered with the second. When the waiter suddenly placed a bottle of vinegar and olive oil on the table, I couldn't believe my eyes. The dry salad was served to me. The burger tasted good, but it's not worth €20 in any parallel universe. How about offering a menu or at least a side dish when you're already taking off your pants for a normal-sized burger? In the end I paid €32. For a burger, a salad and a water. The restaurant has potential in terms of taste but service, price and really everything else can still be improved.

We had dinner with you for the first time on Saturday evening and just wanted to give some feedback that the evening was a complete success for us. The burgers and fries tasted excellent, and we were also impressed by the location. A special thank you goes to the young, extremely friendly waiter, whose enthusiastic manner made us feel particularly comfortable. His passion for the job is palpable and made the evening something special for us. This is no longer a given in the catering sector these days. We had a really nice evening and are already looking forward to the next time.

Ordered burgers here for the first time. Unfortunately I have to say that the burgers don't justify the price. Sauces are great but the meat is so thin that it was dry and just “dead”. Remaining ingredients fresh and delicious. Maybe just use thicker patties. Fries very tasty. Delivery service was on time and very friendly!

Great service, great burgers - everything was perfect! Come again!

Essen mega gut. Service beim ankommen super aufmerksam. Nach dem essen ging unser Kellner leider in die Pause oder Feierabend die anderen waren leider nicht besonders aufmerksam. Hätten gerne noch etwas bestellen wollen. Schade eigentlich. Trotzdem sehr zu empfehlen. 12.11.23 / 15:40Uhr

Wir waren zum ersten Mal hier und waren sehr begeistert! Essen war wirklich sehr lecker. Das Personal war auch sehr freundlich. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen.

Bedienung ein bissal unwillig zuerst, was das 0,4 Getränk für die Kinder anging. Sie hätte wohl lieber 2x 0,2 verkauft. Ging aber dann doch. Pommes und Chicken Fingers super lecker! Burger mäßig. Uns war die Burger Qualität nicht den Preis wert. Kennen wir besser. Auf den Hinweis Toilettenpapier in der Damen Toilette ist leer, wurde nicht direkt reagiert, war immer noch leer als ich nach dem zahlen nochmal gegangen bin. Und es war unter unserem Tisch schon als wir gekommen sind sehr dreckig. Wir gehen nächstes Mal in Donau lieber einen Döner essen.

Super nette Bedienung, sogar die Hunde haben bekommen was sie brauchten! Das Essen war super schnell fertig und hat gut geschmeckt. Gerne wieder

Das Personal ist mega freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Essen schmeckt hervorragend. Jederzeit gerne wieder 😃😃😃😃 Dankeschön

Ein nettes Lokal zum zwanglos gute Burger zu essen. Optisch machen sie vielleicht nicht so viel her, aber und das ist wichtiger, schmecken tun sie um so besser. Die Pommes waren auch schön knusprig und sehr warm. Den Laden werden wir wieder besuchen.

Sehr leckere vegane Gerichte und hausgemachte Limos. Nur zu empfehlen.

Netter Empfang. Umfangreiches Speisen- und Getränkeangebot.

Das HOCH2 ist mein absoluter Lieblings Burgerladen. Die Burger sind super lecker. Fingerfood auch mega nice. Es ist ein süßes kleines Restaurant und einen Besuch aufjedenfall wert. Die Auswahl an Getränken ist auch super.

Tolles Bistro-Bar klasse Burger, Beilage 👍 sehr sauber Personal geht auf wünsche ein Hunde 🐕 willkommen Nur zu empfehlen!!!!!

Bin immer wieder gerne da. Gutes Essen nettes Personal. Weiter so. Update War wieder Mal da, leider hat die Bedienung uns abgewiesen aus unerklärlichen Gründen. Es waren noch Tische draußen frei. Sehr schade 😞. Muss in Zukunft eine neue Burger Bar suchen.

Schöne Bar auch zum draußen sitzen, sehr gemütlich. Super nette Bedienung. Bier schmeckte sehr gut.

Essen hat uns geschmeckt, Service war ok und Ambiente war auch ok.

Das Essen war total toll, haben vegane Burger und Fries gegessen - kann man nur empfehlen. Service war superfreundlich. Jederzeit wieder !!

Meine Freundin und ich hatten jeweils ein Menü, welche echt gute Portionen waren. Also nicht zu viel, aber auch nicht zu wenig. Empfehlung meinerseits wäre der vegane Burger mit Focaccia bun!

Amabilidad y voluntad de atender en varios idiomas

Wir waren während eines Urlaubs in der Region spontan in Donaueschingen und waren Mittags im HOCH2. Sehr gemütliche Location. Haben uns direkt wohl gefühlt. Der Service war sehr nett und aufmerksam. Wir hatten verschiedene Burger und Fries. Das Essen kam zügig und hat uns allen sehr gut geschmeckt. Die Preise sind vollkommen angemessen. Wenn es uns noch einmal nach Donaueschingen verschlägt, kommen wir gerne wieder.

5 Sterne sind absolut verdient! Das Personal ist super freundlich und das Essen war mega lecker !

Best chicken burger I've ever eaten!

Die Preise waren okay, die Burger waren einigermaßen groß. Es gibt keine wirkliche Unterscheidung zwischen Pommes un Weges. Das Ambiente war schön und die Bedienung nett.

knapp 18€ für nen special Burger (nur Burger, da sind keine Beilagen dabei) da muss der auch ordentlich sein. Isser das? Naja. Stop! Versteht mich nicht falsch. Qualität und Geschmack sind erstklassig. Aber bei nen zwanni für Burger und Drink war ich dann schon etwas entäuscht, das gute Fleisch vom Metzger Hogg's zusammengepresst auf 0815 Patty Größe zu finden. Allgemein war der Burger geil. Leider gibt's nen Burger Konkurrent in VS der da doch um längen besser ist, alles selber macht und das große Menu dort so viel kostet wie hier ein Burger. Sorry, Patties anpassen dann passt das auch wieder zum Preis ;)

Unsere Burger (vegetarisch und Rind) waren Super. Auf meiner Burger-Restaurant-Liste auf jeden Fall unter den Top 10.

auf jeden Fall! Bedienung sehr nett und kann Dich über jedes Essen aufklären. Hier wird sehr viel Wert auf regionale Erzeuger gelegt und dies schmeckt man(Burger Patty). Man fühlt sicher immer gut aufgehoben…..

Super organisiert, freundliche Bedienung, Essen schmeckt super 👍🏻, es gibt alle Cocktails auch als alkoholfreie Variante, das Ambiente ist geschmackvoll dekoriert, sauber und es gibt draußen wie auch drinnen genug Plätze. Preislich finde ich es teurer als vergleichbare Restaurants, wenn man jetzt als Familie gut essen möchte ist man hier schnell im dreistelligen Betrag.

ist das passende Wort. Man kommt hin, wird freundlichst begrüßt, wenn möglich gibt einem der Chef auch informationen zum Ort und den Gebräuchen. Dazu ein perfekter Latte und ein Cappuccino - was will man mehr. Danke!

Unglaublich schwacher Service. Halbe Stunde draußen warten, bis der Service sich mal wieder nach draußen begiebt Update nach der Antwort vom Betreiber: Tatsächlich wollte ich eigentlich nicht bezahlen, sondern noch etwas bestellen. Da dies nach 30 Minuten warten nicht möglich war, habe ich dann die nächste Möglichkeit genutzt um dann eben zu bezahlen. Es war auch an den besagten Nachbartischen kein Service, Besucher eines Nachbartisches sind ohne bedient zu werden wieder gegangen. Zu Thema, "ich hätte mich bemerkbar machen können"... Da niemand da war, kann ich mich nirgends bemerkbar machen. Wenn ein "Biergarten" angeboten wird, sehe ich mich nicht in der Pflicht, ins Lokal rein zu gehen, nur weil die Servicekraft nicht organisiert ist.

Schönes Ambiente und guter Service!

Excellent place to have a drink and a snack! Very friendly stuff and delicious food 👌

Sehr liebevoll eingerichtet, essen frisch und sehr schmackhaft... Bedienung aufmerksam und freundlich

Das Essen war sehr schnell zubereitet und hat ausgezeichnet geschmeckt. Die Bedienung war nett und war gut gelaunt. Die Toiletten waren sauber und Desinfektionsmittel war vorhanden. Die Möglichkeit auch draußen zu sitzen ist besonders bei schönem Wetter von Vorteil, einziges Manko ist, dass der Außenbereich an einer Straße liegt, sonst einwandfrei und zu empfehlen!
