Mangal Doner Restaurant in Köln

It was cold and the prices were way too high. House kebabs are a thousand times more familiar to me

Those who think the kebab is good have no idea about kebab, how can you find something like that good?🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ I ate it once, first of all, it's tk kebab so it's not even fresh, it's like a pressed liver sausage that was burned, disgusting

very small kebab, bread was cold and tough, the meat was sticky and weak, we were disappointed

Eeeh thank you Podolski 🇩🇪 We first came here probably to rename it and because it's the kebab in Podolski but in the end the service was quick, and the sandwich was famous. Afterwards for the so-called best, it's not worth the Corsaire in St Antoine either 🩵🤍

Omg, such amazing kebab! Best I've eaten in a while!

Lukas knows how kebab is cooked. Simply still great.

Great service and delicious kebab

Unfortunately all the dishes were cold and not really tasty.

Mangal Bonnerstrasse: I was outrageously charged more than I was supposed to pay. Unfortunately, I saw it too late when paying by card, or only after my bank showed me the bill on my cell phone. The salad was unwashed, which we unfortunately noticed during the meal because it was like biting sand. Super dangerous for pregnant women and also not ideal for the teeth. Price performance is unfortunately terrible! I can't think of anything else. That was the last time.

Never order with all sauces! The seller doesn't look like Lukas Podolski is just ripping off

Unfortunately the kebab only arrived half full! No tzatziki even though ordered! Doner kebab was absolutely cold! Unfortunately not recommended! At that price it's an absolute disaster

You couldn't really talk to the staff. Any ambiguity was immediately frowned upon. “Huh, what? Don’t we have,” “bacon or chicken?” I wanted veal…. For 9€ a Dürüm, which is more suitable as a starter. The only thing that excited me was the modern payment machine.

Really awesome kebab can only be recommended to the whole world,

No cash payment possible. Employees are unfriendly and incompetent.

Ordered 3 plates of greasy food with squirty sauces and 2 drinks which cost me more than €40. Checked my bank upon returning to my hotel and they have CHARGED ME TWICE!! Robbery!

The kebab was very tasty. However, the bread is not my favorite.

Actually, the kebab always tastes good. Today they packed me something very special. -.- 🤮

Mandal a Colonia offre il miglior kebab che abbia mai mangiato! Carne succosa, perfettamente speziata e accompagnata da ingredienti freschi, il tutto racchiuso in un pane soffice e croccante. Le porzioni sono abbondanti e il servizio rapido e cortese. Se sei a Colonia e cerchi un kebab davvero eccezionale, Mandal è una tappa obbligata!

The staff was friendly, but did not speak German. Space to sit was a disaster. I ordered Poldi's Dürüm, what was in it was disgusting... Aside from the cartilage, it also contained a lot of fatty meat. I took a photo of the largest piece of the fat rind, it was still hairy. I lose all appetite.

I'm actually a regular. When I think of kebab, the first thing I do is go to the mangal in lime. In my experience the kebab has always been good but today that wasn't the case. Bread was stone hard, tomatoes tasted like nothing. The employees gave me the impression that they were overworked and overwhelmed. It's a shame it has to come this far before a review.

The meat wasn't tasty, it was cold, then there was no warm bread, just store-bought flatbread, far too little sauce, sorry, impossible for the money MFG

Dog who gives this shop anything other than a 5, homemade bread, great meat, salad and sauce, we don't need to say much, best kebab that my mouth has ever touched and +points because there weren't many customers when I ate there, that's all was done quickly and neatly

I come from Frankfurt am Main. We don't have a branch of the kebab shop. I've often planned to come here but it never worked out, except today... I have to say the ambience was good. Everything was clean. The bread and meat were really tasty. The hot sauce was really hot too! I give Poldi props for that.... We very rarely have a hot sauce in Frankfurt that is actually really hot! I was really very surprised by the kebab. I didn't think it would be really good! Ok, at 10€ it wasn't exactly cheap, of course you also pay for the name Poldi, but it tastes good and that makes up for the price! I would be happy if Poldi would also open a branch in Frankfurt am Main.

Staff was slightly overwhelmed that day. The ambience is nice but it could need more care 😎

I ordered a kebab plate and all I can say is the meat is absolutely top, fries too and 2 delicious sauces! Went quickly and the staff was friendly! And I was also in Düsseldorf and everything was great! I have no idea what some people are rating here!

Can you eat water? Lukas Podolski: Yes It's pointless to even call something like that a kebab. 0 taste. The only thing that had any taste was the cola. Go play football again. Stay away from kebab!

The restaurant has no seats. You have to take the food with you. The kebab is very tasty. Also ideal for getting rid of your change at the ATM.

Was there today and I have to say it was unfortunately a disappointment. With the name Lukas Podolski I was expecting a good kebab but unfortunately I was very disappointed. The bread was old and tough. The meat had no taste and was quite dry. The kebab was very full but unfortunately still not what I expect from a kebab. Definitely won't go there again.

The kebab is certainly delicious. But I doubt whether it's worth it or not.

Ordered 7 kebabs: paid €52.50! 4 with salad and all completely wrong only the meat was right :) Doner kebab is getting smaller and more expensive. It no longer tasted good after the wrong filling. I'd rather spend the €7.50 at HSD. I haven't been disappointed there so far and at Mangal (no matter which one) it's the 4th time.

There was Tamşrat, we didn't feel comfortable

You don't even deserve one star.. only sent the food out later than late and "forgot" the relevant ingredients. Who the hell eats something like that without sauce? Please reflect before you act

Me and my wife had a terrible food poisoning after eating here yesterday. Didn’t eat anything else in the evening. We ate here several times before this and everything was ok though.

There was also not enough sauce on the meat, somehow small portions in general. And fries are not baked well.

Here I ate my first kebab in my life. He is perfect. Meat, salads and sauces create a perfectly balanced composition. I try to come back here every year

Doner good 👍 Staff disaster Poldi hire real people Explained what I wanted 3 times and was still wrong

Good kebab but the worst staff in Cologne

Unfortunately we are very disappointed, once again the kebab was made without any love, there wasn't enough on it, the fries were old and cold and didn't taste good. You can expect quality for the price. At the beginning you were really great and we recommended you, but now we advise against it. Unfortunately you have scared us away and we won't be coming anymore even though we live around the corner.

It's a shame, I would have liked to eat something too... But I see so many negative things to read here... He can't save money that way... Not having to go into a kebab shop like that... .. When it comes to kebabs, I've become a gourmet - I'm already 65 years old and still have good taste on my tongue... But I don't have to convince myself particularly when so many people are already here on this app give negative comments.... Especially with the plastic in the kebab from a lid of some kind of sauce.... Then I still wish you good luck and everyone a good appetite, especially if the kebab is cold, as many people eat it cold ... I'd rather have a currywurst and of course and fries with it in typical German style... But correct prices and good food Currywurst and fries always works... And if that's not enough then I'll just have a big fat meatball Meatball or pork neck on a roll German culture is always in demand... And I will always enjoy it...

The taste of the kebab is no longer good for me. I ordered two to take away and have no idea what the problem is, but the taste of the kebab used to be a straight A for me. I've tried several times now to see if there's something wrong with it, but the kebabs just don't taste good anymore.

Waited 20 minutes because 10 hipsters had to film a promotional video. Unfortunately, no one thought to communicate this to the guests. The staff even looked at you askance when you asked when things were going, since you actually might not have 1-2 hours to wait for a student film at the airport. Doner kebab was just standard and even there are better ones.

One of the worst eating experiences I've ever had. I took a bite of my kebab and suddenly noticed something very solid in my mouth. At first I thought it might be a piece of fat. Turns out it was just a piece of bone! Thank you for completely destroying my appetite for kebabs. Completely unacceptable.

We got a doner sandwich to take away on a Friday evening. At home we noticed that it tasted strange and different than usual. Very scruffy. As we stood in front of the counter, one of us had already said that the food smelled strange and the skewer didn't look good. Unfortunately everything was really old. The next day everyone had extreme diarrhea. I'm really sorry for this comment, but it had to be done. In all the time we've eaten there, we've never had problems like this. Will never go there again. I wouldn't wish this terrible stomach ache on anyone! It's really a shame. Please pay more attention to hygiene there and that the ingredients do not become old and greasy. There are only a few stars because of the service. He was completely ok.

The Persian prince made a mixed spicy one for himself. He didn't spare the sauce until I had to smoke it with a cigarette. You can pay by card.

I just had a chicken doner here priced 7.90€. One word review ‘DISGUSTING’. Small kebab shops makes better Döner than these guys. Ambience, service, quality, price, even cooking is bad. If you’re an Indian then trust me this is not for your tongues at all. Because we cannot have half cooked chicken. Now i just wanna express my frustration in mother tongue BOKKALA UNDI CHI DEENEMMA DÖNER

The kebab itself tastes very good. Unfortunately, at Mangal in the southern part of the city, I discovered for the third time that the kebab was served completely cold. I will eat elsewhere in the future.

We were in the Mangal on Comedy Street by the cathedral. It doesn't even exist online yet. So I'm writing here at this address. The store was well stocked and everything looked clean and coordinated with all the people behind the counter. There was a normal kebab with veal and everything that could go with it. The portion was large and the bread was really fresh. The meat was juicy and lean. The price was well under 10 euros. Maybe it was so cheap because of the “re-opening”? In any case, it tasted good. In principle, the bread bag could also keep up with the top dogs from Ehrenfeld. Maybe there was still a little something missing from perfection, but the performance offered was really good. So just try it out.

I don't think what kind of kebab.... the chicken kebab smells a bit... never again chicken kebab woahhhh......

I have to honestly say that Hänschen Fleisch was just rubbish - it smells really bad. and one of the employees was a fat man there and really unfriendly

The two of us ate kebab, it tasted good. Unfortunately, we spent the day afterwards just on the toilet

Very little meat but a very high price of €8.90 for a kebab. I'll never go there again

For “doner kebab on hand” it was ok. I'm used to larger, more filled kebabs, especially the meat portion and the garlic sauce were added too sparingly. The price, on the other hand, is too high. Friendly staff. So in terms of taste it's fine - if you can ignore the rest.

I really had bad experience with this restaurant, Doner look like doner but who knows what they use. I didn't like doner or other sauces they use ,i left the place with angry stomach.

Doner kebab was really good, but unfortunately the sauce lid got into my kebab.

Perfect kebab, well-seasoned vegetables, great meat. Tasty, although not too thick sauces. Bon appetit. Note: very large portions :-).

It's 6 p.m. and we ordered two Pom kebabs at a terminal. The not at all annoyed man behind the counter told us in a very friendly way that there were no more fries and that he could give us salad. I told him that we don't eat salad. He rolled his eyes in a particularly annoyed manner and went angrily into the next room. Since a refund of the money is probably not an option, we got two cups of meat. The chicken was still pink and the extra liquid sauce I ordered was only available after I pointed it out. We are now leaving with less than half-empty portions! The €17.90 was worth it!

Great at the beginning, not so great anymore. The review concerns the Ubierring branch, Cologne, it is better at Heumarkt. Unfortunately, the portions have become smaller and smaller, the vegetables are no longer cut as finely as they used to be and the kebab pocket is no longer filled in layers as lovingly and carefully as it used to be. The latter has a noticeable effect on the taste. You can see that savings are being made. If it hadn't been so great just once, I wouldn't have written a review - that can happen - but the last three visits have confirmed the deteriorated quality. If you have to save money, it's better to increase prices, but don't skimp on quality. My opinion. Very unfortunate. ☹️

Ate Dürüm and kebab. Very juicy and well topped. Sauces not too overpowering.

1. Man wartet ewig, auch wenn überhaupt keinelange Schlange vorhanden. Entweder die Arbeiten so langsam oder es gibt ne Weisung, dass immer ein paar Leute da anstehen ‚müssen‘ damit es besonders beliebt/gut besucht aussieht. 2. Döner war heute unterdurchschnittlich bis schlecht, wenig Fleisch drin, wässrige und geschmacklose Soßen (als wenn diese mit Wasser gestreckt würden?!) und den extra Euro für Käse kann man sich erst recht getrost sparen.. Also geh ich nicht wieder hin..

Unfortunately the kebab wasn't good, there was little meat, the bread was like a roll but the sauces tasted good. The employees were all very friendly! But I don't have to eat there again.

Mangal Döner in Cologne is simply great! The food is always fresh and of the best quality. The kebab here tastes fantastic and is really well seasoned. What's particularly great is that Lukas Podolski is behind this shop - you can tell his passion for good food! The staff is very friendly and the service is quick. The store is clean and inviting, which makes the visit even more enjoyable. Highly Recommended!

I love this kebab and the falafel pocket. Everything goes together perfectly, the bread, the salad and the cocktail sauce!! Aaab, today I had the worst mangal I've ever had. The employees put so little sauce on it that you couldn't taste any of it. The flesh was burned. Unfortunately, in this branch it depends on the employees how tasty the mangal is

Döner tam anlamıyla harika, lezzet muhteşem, sosları ve et mükemmel, doyurucu mutlka tadılması gereken bir lezzet, çalışanlar gayet nazik

Doner kebab works like that but sauces are a disaster. Not recommendable.

Expensive but great quality. You're happy to pay more for that. Really tasty and super polite. Gladly again.

Highlights: * Delicious meat: The meat in the Mangal kebab is juicy, crispy and well seasoned. There are various meats to choose from including veal, chicken and lamb. * Fresh ingredients: In addition to the meat, fresh lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and onions are also used. * Large portions: The portions are large and filling. * Quick preparation: The waiting time is short, even when it's busy. * Friendly Staff: The staff is friendly and accommodating. Need for improvement: * Sauces could have more flavor: The sauces could have a little more flavor. They're okay, but not outstanding. * Prices a bit high: The prices are a bit high compared to other kebab shops in Cologne. Conclusion: The Mangal Döner in Cologne is a good choice if you fancy a delicious kebab. The meat is great, the portions are large and the staff is friendly. However, the sauces could have a little more flavor and the prices are a bit high compared to other kebab shops.

My name is Max, I'm forty and I'm looking for a Chaya

one of the worst kebabs I've eaten. Too much meat - tastes very cheap and bad. Location didn't look clean. The employee was sweating non-stop and unfortunately he didn't speak German. At some point a second colleague came - the whole thing took a very long time. Staff not friendly

Unfortunately, my visit to this restaurant was disappointing. On the one hand, the service staff obviously had difficulty understanding me, so I had to repeat my order several times. It would be desirable if the staff spoke German to facilitate communication. On the other hand, the food was also disappointing. Overall this visit was disappointing and I will avoid Mangal restaurants in the future.

Mehr als enttäuschend. Mit Vorfreude hab ich den Döner bestellt und wurde bitter enttäuscht. Weder das Brot war knusprig noch war das Fleisch schön angegrillt. Das Fleisch war echt grenzwertig. Hatte glaube 3 fette verknorpelte teile im Döner. Mit Abstand einer der schlechtesten Döner die ich jemals gegessen habe. Auch die soßen absolut nicht lecker. Keine Ahnung was da alles schief läuft. Das hier auch ein "Multimillionär" seine Finger im Spiel hat will man ja kaum glauben bei der Qualität die da über den Tisch geht. Ich würde mich schämen wenn man mein Name damit in Verbindung bringen würde.

Worst kebab ever, zero taste and little meat. Salad on bread with lazy sauce. And then it's expensive :)

Better than the average kebab but also not the best kebab I've ever eaten. The overall taste is good and the bread is also better than the standard kebab bread. But the price is already borderline.

Was there with a companion, he ordered veal with onions and salad, but got veal with red cabbage and cucumber instead. I order chicken. I'm getting veal... so yesterday's service was useless. Oh yes and I was charged before I finished ordering, which meant I couldn't order any extras.

Very good and super nice and helpful service

As it should be? Is the “To Go” situation intentional? Obviously yes! This is regularly expressed in the evening blockage of the stretch of sidewalk which uninvolved passers-by (perhaps some people in a hurry wanted to leave behind?). Furthermore, the lack of seating and no sanitary facilities are also taken into account. After all, the waiting crowd exudes a predominantly cheerful mood. So probably the one who got fuel from the supermarket in advance! Well, I don't want to write anything down about the snack bar. If you don't want to eat anything there, the edges of the Chlogwigplatzer almost offer other places to eat, sometimes also from a chain, but most of them don't. Speaking of the chain: unfortunately I don't know of any survey that shows that orders go predominantly to the account of the "un Poldi" factor in the name. I would question how resilient “us” really is today. When he is now supposed to play for a club in his country of birth. Avoiding further explanations from the world of the voluntary state of emergency with F, which everyone else is welcome to claim for themselves, the post is now finished and sent without whoosh.

Very disrespectful cashier. Not listening, made mistakes and does not admit them. He thinks he owns the place cause people wnat to eat and can do everything he want.

Für zwei Hähnchen dürüm und vier Getränke 28,50€ bezahlt viel zu teuer, war mit Salat gefüllt wenig Fleisch und der Fleisch ist nicht so gut.. für den Preis kann man wo anders definitiv besser essen…daher 👎

3-4 years ago 5 stars, today more like 2. I can't explain it, maybe different meat... I ate here again twice in the last few months and it wasn't good at all...

I ordered a kebab today through Lieferando! It arrived 2 hours late and freezing cold! I didn't want any onions and there were just too many onions! And all of this just cost €13! Shame on you!

Very very bad honestly. Not worth a cent.

I recently went to Poldi Döner with my son. I don't know if we were just there on the wrong day, but the kebab was unseasoned and not cooked enough. The taste is simply not that tasty. We were already a bit worn out from the day and didn't feel like complaining. Then I gave my son my portion because he was really hungry and I lost my appetite. He didn't think it was as bad as I did. Someone at the next table also complained and no one at the table behind me ate either. First and last visit there. It's a shame Poldi - you're still a great guy. ;-)

We ordered online and the order was canceled after 60 minutes. The last shop!

Was extremely disappointed after my visit. The kebab didn't taste particularly good. Unfortunately the hot sauce was very bad. There are definitely better kebab shops in Cologne. Sorry Poldi...

A lot of hype about Prinz Poldi's kebab shop! (I think he's a great guy) Döner standard that you get in abundance in Germany! Fries €5.90 but an impossibly large portion where you get the impression that a lot helps a lot. The guys behind the counter were very friendly. Well, I wouldn't talk about ambience. Dispensing point only.

Large family, children would like the kebab without anything, just meat and bread, for which they would charge 8 euros. It doesn't work at all!!

Fries disaster and order not understood

Were in Cologne for the handball Champions League final and of course a visit to Poldi's kebab was part of it. I really ate my best kebab there. The bread was sensational and the meat with it is simply to die for. The sauce rounded the whole thing off wonderfully. The only thing that wasn't my cup of tea is the own lemonade, but that's just a matter of taste. But all in all you should go there if you can.

Very very very friendly staff and extremely tasty

Everything was simply cold and the meat was nothing special, especially when it was served cold! It's simply no different to any other kebab shop! Service and ambience simply catastrophic! I heard about service, yes you've already bitten into it! Can't we do anything now!

If you say Dürüm clearly twice and still get a bag and the meat is still tough and dry... you really don't have to go there.

Waiting forever in the evening for a normal kebab, people at the checkout were also relatively unfriendly

I went there with high expectations and was extremely disappointed. Rarely have I eaten such a remorseful kebab.

The kebab tasted great and everything was very fresh.

I went there and felt great :), but then I bit into this kebab and then my stomach said “bro not like that” and extracted all the nonsense from the top hole again!!!! No recommendation, yours <3

Ridiculous delivery time of 2 hours for two kebabs. Definitely not recommended to order there. The food is average and the delivery time is really more than regrettable. Close the store or work on customer satisfaction!

Very unfriendly service, standard salad and really criminally bad meat. 3 days of food poisoning :)

The kebab was of a low level in terms of taste. Meat was already cold and industrially produced. For the price of 8 euros I definitely expect more. In addition, the employees were extremely unfriendly!

I don't know if it's in the kebab or the bread, but it tastes weird like sugar. If it wasn't for the sugar, it wouldn't be a bad kebab.

Delicious kebab sandwich, well topped with lettuce, onions, juicy meat and the right amount of sauce. The breads seem to be freshly baked, are crispy on the outside and nice and fluffy on the inside without being too bulky. However, the staff is inattentive and they are stingy with the aluminum foil, which results in sauce dripping out the bottom. Prices are also juicy, but it's better to pay a little more for a good kebab sandwich than to get dry bread with little meat.

Really good kebab! 🥙 Very tasty and very fresh ingredients 👌🏻
