Kudr-et Döner House in Köln

Ate there with my family and we all ended up in the hospital because of food poisoning. I recommend not eating there any more.

Highly recommended, especially the house special. Just ask for Bernd Zehner and Maxe's favorite dish and be surprised.

Best food spot in Cologne, good staff and delicious Turkish food :)

Unfortunately, we had to eat outside even though everything was empty inside. Apparently, everything was reserved. Two women were allowed to sit even though they didn't have reservations. The food wasn't great either. Unfortunately, never again. Having to sit in the cold with a child even though everything is empty inside is sick.

Best kebab in Cologne! 🌯🔥 I've been to Kudr-et Döner House several times and I'm impressed every time! If you're looking for a really good kebab or dürüm, you'll definitely find it here. The quality of the ingredients is top-notch – the meat is juicy and flavorful, the bread is always fresh and crispy, and the sauces are simply amazing. The homemade sauces, in particular, give the kebab a special touch! The portions are also absolutely fair – you'll definitely be full! The staff is super friendly and, despite the crowds, always quick and well-organized. The location right on Hohenzollernring is perfect, especially if you need a tasty snack after a long night of partying. A must-try for all kebab fans in Cologne! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Totally overrated and way too expensive

I strongly recommend You are perfect 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Fries taste really disgusting. Staff don't even want to bring fries. Too little meat in the kebab

Unfortunately, our visit to this restaurant was very disappointing and a torture.... Nowadays everyone thinks they can open a restaurant without any experience. The result is that the entire process is haphazard and disorganized, with all the employees shouting at each other and having absolutely no idea what they are doing. In the corner there was a huge Bluetooth box that was set to ultra loud, which caused the window and the wooden frame to vibrate, absolutely horrible sound. Everything was rattling and no clean sound came out. It gave you a really big headache coming into the store. After we expressed several times that we would like to eat inside, we were told that everything was reserved right next to the hot oven. The wait for the food was almost unbearable due to what felt like 600 degrees. The left facial aid was burning non-stop... it was such an incredible heat and especially the noise. Interestingly, shortly afterwards four young men came into the shop who had also not made a reservation and were immediately given a table for four at the back of the restaurant??? All sorts of people got their food beforehand, a group of young people, 15 people outside who came after us and of course the people in the restaurant itself. We waited for 45 minutes. The food didn't meet our expectations at all from what we had previously seen on some social videos (some young people praising the food, actually just to make others feel embarrassed afterwards)... Actually, we got the complete opposite. The portion was only about a third the size. And it didn't taste good at all. Outside the chairs are completely full of dirt, crumbs, dirt on the tables and everything hasn't been wiped properly. Honestly people don't let these videos lure you in. I definitely won't recommend the store and we will never eat there again.

Food was good, but when I asked if I can have a seat they said no but continued to seat anyone who was white with no problem even if they hadn't ordered anything.

Saw a TikTok video of how bread was freshly made for the kebab, but unfortunately there was none here - the bread was cold and definitely not homemade. The meat and sauces were good. Price €8.50 for the steak kebab

Very good kebab. Highly recommended. I would have liked to give 5 stars but the portion of meat is always too little, even after several times. Could be a little more. Otherwise taste and quality are top.

We enjoyed our kebab inside, but they sat us outside in the cold, even though everything inside was empty and we behaved in a civilized manner. It was particularly unpleasant that we were reprimanded in front of everyone. Not a nice experience

It arrived very late, the staff is rude, I wouldn't recommend it and it's too expensive. I definitely wouldn't recommend it.

The food is ok, the service is very bad. They told us we couldn't choose doner at the table but there were people eating doner at the table next to us.

We need to eat outside and was very could 2 degree the stuff very unfriendly rude.... they don't let person to eat inside if you take durum menu you need to eat outside on the street,we regret to go there

The kebab was dry and not very filled

Scam avoid at all costs. Pretend to help then overcharge if you do not speak German.

My first review I did in my life. I had come a long way and was very hungry. The kebab I bought really disappointed me. Despite being very hungry, he was simply lifeless. Didn't really have a taste. For €8.50, never.

I wanted to eat a kebab but I waited more than 30 minutes for a reaction and didn't get one. Not recommended

Unfortunately very disappointing. Service was totally disinterested and therefore partially ignored me even though I was standing at the front of the counter. I had a Lahmacun for €9.90 (which is a lot, but another topic) and it was really empty. When he rolled it up it was mini and I had to ask twice for more to be put in because it was completely empty. The meat was just dry and disappointingly rolled up. Never again

Really good kebab. Vedat better man💪

Döner plate very tasty 😋 The meat is different than the other kebab shops. It was quite juicy, dark but very tasty. 3 sauces are served on a separate tray and a bowl of crusty bread. All in all very tasty and cozy here, just a little too cold at the moment.

My family and I bought a kebab to eat in the store. We were told to wait at the table before being served. After about 10 minutes of waiting, a group of young people arrived and each bought a kebab. This is not a problem, but my family being neglected even though we wait longer is not acceptable. The kebab that we got after waiting 30 minutes wasn't any better. The salad was dry. Service-wise it wasn't any better. The staff was disorganized and had no plan. We even asked when the food would come, the employee simply nodded. We weren't sure if he understood us correctly.

My family and 5 people drove from Essen to Cologne. We sat down and wanted to order. My cousin and I wanted to order 2 portions per person. I started with the Steak Dürüm and the waiter cheekily said that they only have it to take away. ????? Then I also ordered çökeltme and my cousin a kebab plate. For the other family members - 2x lamb chops and a pide. Suddenly we were allowed to order kebab in bread because a lot of orders were placed???? Extremely dissatisfied and disrespectful to his customers. The fact that people make their customers dependent on this is extremely disrespectful.

Very unfriendly and the food wasn't tasty

Very tasty kebab! Exceptional bread, reminiscent of Gyros Pita. However, it could be a little bigger for the price. But the taste is great!

Today I visited the Kudr-E Döner House at the Hohenzollernring in Cologne. During the lunch break, I wanted a delicious kebab plate and was not disappointed. The special thing here is that the meat is pure beef and less seasoned than at other kebab shops. Personally, I liked this version because it brings out the flavor of the meat better. The fries were average, but I was pleasantly surprised by the salad. Fresh and crunchy, just the way I like it. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very inviting, which immediately gave me a good feeling. The staff was friendly, although they seemed a little distracted. Nonetheless, I was well served and my food came quickly. In other reviews, I read that some guests also praised the quality of the meat, while others complained about the portions. Personally, the amount was enough for me, but it's certainly a matter of taste. All in all, my visit to Kudr-et Döner Houser was positive and I will definitely stop by again.

1 star We drove to this restaurant from Mülheim an der Ruhr specifically to try the supposedly famous specialty “Yaprak Dürüm”. The anticipation was great, but unfortunately our visit turned out to be a disappointment. The restaurant was completely overcrowded and we had to wait for a table to become available. When we were finally able to sit down, the waitress told us that we weren't allowed to eat there for Yaprak Dürüm - only takeaway. It was cold and rainy outside and we were forced to eat the food outside for almost €50 (3 dürüm and drinks). The Dürüm itself was disappointing: the bread was far too thick, the meat was unseasoned, and eating without a table was simply impossible. Unfortunately, half of them ended up on the floor. We expected a lot but were completely disappointed. Customers should be welcomed into a restaurant and not treated based on the price of their menu. For us it was a unique and unforgettably bad visit. Unfortunately we cannot recommend this store.

All employees very friendly. And the food was very tasty. I can only recommend it.

Well where should I start... I came here for the first time because of the TikTok hype, to get a picture and because I was incredibly hungry. Doner kebab is always good and is prepared quickly, which is why I came here. I was pretty shocked when I saw that the steak kebab cost €8.50, but I still gave it a chance and got a menu for €13.90 to be surprised and to get as full as possible, since I hadn't eaten all day. The employees at the checkout were inattentive at first, but they didn't seem 100% motivated or in a good mood, which is why it left a poor impression. Finally the food came, but I was even more shocked that the folded bread turned out to be quite small. However, I have to say that the bread was quite fluffy and the meat tasted really juicy, like steak. This is the first time I've eaten a steak kebab and I generally find the taste unusual since I've only eaten something steak-like maybe twice in my life. I liked it. I didn't have to complain about the amount in the bread. Fries are just fries, what can I say? Overall, I would say that the steak kebab and the food in general are good, but deduct one star because in my opinion it doesn't justify the price and a further deduction for the staff. Maybe they had a bad day, it was their first time here. I would like to visit the store again. Nothing will change in terms of price, but perhaps the employees will be in a better mood this time.

Brother, what did you do? We queued for 30 minutes and people kept coming forward and we waited for nothing. The real problem started with food. We ordered Cökertme kebab and it was really a children's portion. Such an outrage for €20! Per plate... I don't recommend it to anyone. Ambience is nice though

Very very tasty but employees are always rude and disrespectful every week. This one is 3 minutes from me but I prefer to drive 10-15 minutes to Ehrenfeld. They are faster and friendlier. I had this experience here 6 times. Always the same. The boss especially.😡 but as I said, it's really really tasty.

The food was tasty, but the portion was too small for €16.80. No friendly service, ambience was ok

Food was good but the waiters are not hospitable. You don't feel welcome

All the good reviews made us want to visit this place. Unfortunately, we can't understand all the good reviews. This plate simply cost €17. At most, my 10 year old gets enough of it. There were 5 people and we got a small 3 dip and little bread. In the end we paid €100 and everyone was still hungry. We then looked for a second restaurant to get our fill. Unfortunately that was the first and last time.

You can only eat from a kebab plate in the shop Staff unfriendly and overwhelmed The taste is okay and you can forget about getting full here

So I generally don't write reviews. But today it went too far. Google says it's open until 6 a.m., so I trusted it and was in front of the store at 4 a.m. Not a skewer was attached. I asked the kebab man for fries, and he also told me that this wasn't possible. I'm just horrified and disappointed. Only 1 star from me.

I've been to Ehrenfeld a few times and here for the first time. I ordered a kebab plate that tasted very tasty.

Mediocre, the veal was too fatty/oily for me, hardly any sauce (but a little was tasty), salad sparse.

Unfortunately, Kudret could not meet my expectations. What was particularly disappointing was the quality of the meat, which was both dry and cut uncomfortably thick. As a result, the dish lacked the typical juiciness and tenderness that makes a good kebab. The atmosphere and service were fine, but these positive aspects cannot compensate for the weaknesses in the main product. After all, taste and consistency are the heart of a kebab shop. With a little more care in meat preparation and cutting, the store's potential could be better utilized. Until then, unfortunately, there is still room for improvement.

We eat beef doner. The bread was very dry, they were very cold even though we bought it half an hour ago. I don't recommend it.

The employee at the cash register did not speak or understand English well, as a result we got something we didn't want in our order, we asked if it was possible to cancel but the employee refused because of after him there was no money in the cash register, you should know that it was a Saturday evening and the restaurant was quite full. Other than that the food was good although the prices were a bit high, the music was too loud in the restaurant and it was rather cramped.

Cökertme Kebab, Künefe and the staff were great. Since the door is often left open, it is cold and cool inside. Turkish tea compensates a little for this cold.

“Customer unfriendly and disappointing” I wanted to buy a simple kebab and sit down and eat it in peace. But instead I was informed that I was only allowed to sit if I ordered a kebab plate. I have never experienced anything like this in any other kebab shop. It seems like they only welcome customers who spend more money. The way this was pointed out to me was anything but polite. As a paying customer, I expect to be treated with respect regardless of my order. This unfriendly and customer-unfriendly attitude completely spoiled my visit. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this store. There are many other kebab shops that treat their customers better and don't impose such nonsensical rules.

Extremely good kebab plate. Waited less than 2 minutes and was really outstanding. Preferably 6\5 stars

well-stocked plate, smiling and delicious waiter, I preferred the chicken 👌 🤤🤤🤤responsible price, recommend

The employees and the master chef people were good and the service was good, they were friendly, I hope I will come again, greetings from the Netherlands, we stopped by on our way from Türkiye to all the employees.

Everything was great, especially the service and Ms. Burcu's sweetness and friendliness.

Thanks to Ms. Burcu and Kerem. It was very nice with you!

I really like everyone so much. We had a party together and danced to Wapan Gangnam nstyle love you all 🥰

Food was delicious. But I've never seen such unfriendly employees

We were here on Saturday lunchtime with our 6 year old son and we all really enjoyed the food and the service was very friendly. We'll definitely be back!

Unfortunately I wasn't allowed to sit down, meat wasn't good and I wasn't allowed to charge my phone either

Super cool, food was exactly what I needed that evening, the kebab bread was like a fresh, hearty pancake. The service person Memet in particular was very friendly, but everyone in the team was generally very accommodating. I always enjoy eating there :D

We were there on a Saturday evening and had to wait in line outside the door for about 30-40 minutes until a spot was available. The staff were so nice and brought out warm tea for everyone waiting. The food was very tasty and the meat tasted very good. The only criticism is that the portion was a bit too small. If I'm in Cologne I would go there again.

Lots of space, but you can't eat anything inside. Very unfriendly staff

We were warmly felt. The service was very good. I ordered an Urfa grill plate. The portion was so small, I've never seen anything like it before, and the taste was nothing special. That's why I wouldn't order a grill plate there again and wouldn't recommend it either. Doner tastes good there.

unsympathetic and unqualified staff.

There are very good and not so good things in this shop, the service here is not very good, the place is small and they don't let you sit inside if you don't order a plate, although we are regular customers, it is frankly annoying, the decoration of the shop is very chaotic and eye-straining, but the staff is friendly and the old doner chef here is really an expert in his job and the doner is really delicious. Frankly, it competes with the yaprak doner in Bursa or the doner in Ankara. Although I enjoyed eating here, it is one of the 2-3 best doner places around Cologne. In general, the sauce issue is a problem here as in all doner places in Germany, if you are going to eat iskender or Cokertme kebab like in the picture, don't forget to specify that the sauce be less.

Very nice service, thanks to Mr. Vedat.

The food was great but the disrespectful and brash employees were a disaster.

Tried a lot of kebabs and kebab plates or pide here it was very tasty and was surprised by the quantity Top I'd love to come back and keep it up

We had to pay €4 for three small pieces of bread, otherwise very tasty

I ordered kebab with chicken, he didn't really listen and put veal in it. After I told him that again, he angrily turned to the skewer, scraped the meat from the kebab out to the other one, dipped my roll in the fat from the veal and then put the chicken in it. THAT DOESN'T WORK AT ALL. Absolutely crazy!

Harika, lezzet fefkalade atmosfer..don't forget to eat once,,

Cousin!!!! Best shop 😅 food and service highly recommended

Vedat best man, polite and respect

I love soups. Here I found the best lamb soup from Cologne. Simple and delicious. And the employees are always super friendly.

This is exactly how a restaurant should be! Fresh, delicious/tasty food, cleaner environment and a warm team. Absolutely exemplary! 👌🏾🥰😋

Thank you to Kudr et and Vedat abi for this excellent meal and excellent service. You won't find such a delicious and real kebab anywhere else in Germany! One dream every time! If you want a real Turkish Yaprak, you should definitely go to Vedat Abi and Kudr Et! Thank you very much from us!

The bread was very, very dry and the meat needed half a well afterwards. Employees were very stressed... Had a bad experience

We were made aware of the store through an Insta Reel and were absolutely not disappointed. Really delicious kebab plate and great service. We'd love to come back.

The meat tasted good but a little heavy. Also, the meat and bread were cold. The toilet was not clean..

Always wanted to eat a kebab here because the shop looks very good from the outside. The taste of the kebab, the meat and the sauce was relatively good. Fat minus point for the bread. The kebab was hard to eat because the bread was rock hard and cold, as if it were from yesterday. Very expensive for 8.50, but it's 6.5/10

Doner plate is very good here. I can only recommend it!

I was disappointed with my visit to this döner place. The waitress was very rude and unprofessional, which made the experience uncomfortable. The prices were high compared to other places, and unfortunately, the quality of the döner didn’t justify the cost. It wasn’t the worst, but definitely not the best I’ve had. I wouldn’t recommend it.

I've never eaten such bad pasta. Never come here. extremely unfriendly

Worst durum ever eaten in germany. Unfriendly staff. They didn’t want to talk and serve the woman in our group. We weren’t allowed to sit inside. They overcharged the woman in our group and didn’t want to return their change.

I swear to you, I've never eaten anything like this. Really delicious, highly recommended no.153

Received cold kebab, never had such a bad kebab before

Tactics, technique, taste, presentation... Well done guys.

The potatoes were not salted, had no taste at all (((

Lahmacun and minced meat pita were legendary. Our master baker is very friendly and does a very good job. I recommend this job. Their doner kebabs were also very good.

Super Nice owner and staff delicious food Highly recommended

Been there several times and thank God not once disappointed!

We ordered pizza doner and it very delicious, the service was excellent

So I don't think the food is particularly special Tavûk rice and kebab meat tasted good, everything else was just a joke, the meat just doesn't taste like anything, it's just sad. Service was ok but the important thing is the food. I don't recommend it, it's not as good as they are pushed

Well, one out of 10 employees may have unconsciously annoyed me extremely, perhaps I was also a bit aggressive But everything else was great and I can only recommend it

Ate an Urfa Dürüm at night after the club. A dream.

The service is good and fast, but the kebab itself tastes incredibly bad…

The food was cold and the meat was super dry. Don't let Insta fool you...

I ate there with my class and everyone enjoyed it

Worst store where I went, unfortunately I couldn't.

Turkish-style kebab (steak kebab) is recommended. Gladly again

I didn't like it, the meat from the kebab was really tough and felt like chewing gum when I chewed it

Very friendly staff, very clean. But Cökertme with fried French fries and kebab meat on top is a bit much for €16. Which didn't fill me up and the meat came cold.

Got the wrong order, then the fries and meat were cold. Service lackluster. Let's not go there anymore

Was ignored for 15 minutes and moved on

Abdullah was very interested, we thank you very much.
