Paulaner Wirtshaus Berlin Potsdamer Platz in Berlin

Came for a quick lunch. The place is nicely renovated with cozy ambiance. Other than that, nothing to highlight .

the sausage salad can't be any smaller... otherwise you'll miss it... momseneck was better, cheaper and the portions were also good...

Went here for dinner during the lunch break. Visually very nicely done, the food was unfortunately just about average. Probably a restaurant primarily for tourists. My soup could have been a ready-made soup, the pretzel was dry, the spaetzle also tasted like a mediocre ready-made product. Certainly quite comfortable for drinking pure beer.

The man at the bar this afternoon (checked shirt) was the best, always a pleasure

We met friends for dinner here. The kids enjoyed it and of course we did too. Schnitzel with fries on top, schnitzel with spaetzle on top, dumplings with red cabbage on top, sausage salad with fresh pretzel on top. Everything was delicious. Thanks for that.

Bravarian trio, and fresh mix beer with passion fruit. All great! Highly recommended. I had a great meal.

The food was very spicy, so I had to cool my mouth with some water(200cl). But the food was quickly on the table, that is actually my only positive remark.

Beer and food very good... Service a little slower and you don't get the real Bavarian atmosphere...

Excellent traditional Bavarian dishes, like schnitzels, sausages, and dumplings. Delicious and authentic. Decent service – usually polite and fast, but can be less attentive during busy times. Cozy and pleasant, with typical Bavarian decor. Great for group gatherings or family dinners.

Unfriendly, arrogant service and ridiculous prices for the food. Hunter sauce is clear from the bag. One word: tourist trap.

Great service, great beer, music is debatable, recommendation goes out.

Perfect food and the service is great

Very nice staff and the food is also delicious 😊

Good food in a loud environment. The food was great and the portions were decent. However, it was very loud and is therefore not recommended for a quiet and cozy meal. Tasty, loud, good service 👍

Never order kaiserschmarrn here, took 45min and was super dry. There rest of the food was okay

Good food, nice interior. Berlin prices, so it's not cheap, but adequate to the market. I recommend

Aliyah is the best waitress in the world.

Ordered the pork knuckle ("Schweinhaxe)" and skin was crispy and flavorful. The meat was a plain, but the dish is served with the pork drippings and that elevated the pork meat to the next level. Sadly, the knödel (which i was also greatly looking forward to) was plain for my liking. Again the drippings helped out with that. The Sauerkraut was very good. I'm not usually a fan, but it was the perfect balance to this savory/fatty dish! Caution this dish may take some time for the kitchen to prepare. Service was attentive and helpful. Nothing above and beyond, but cannot fault :). Dog friendly and also allowed inside.

Frozen fries, not incredible but nice waitress, pretty nice place Look at my wife's look:

Highly recommended, great service, great atmosphere. Would love to come back.

The staff is a 10/10 and keeps the brewery in business. The food is an absolute disaster, the schnitzel is ready-made in the oven, the meat patties are also dry lumps prepared in the oven. None of this has anything to do with Bavarian food. The ambience would certainly be better if countless green plants hadn't been placed on and next to the tables. Thanks to the waiter and his assistants, but you can completely forget about the food. The prices are a disgrace for the quality of the food.

Yesterday we went to the Paulaner at the end of our Berlin trip. We were served very friendly. Unfortunately the taste of the food was not good. Chicken not cooked through, sausage salad without salad dressing, schnitzel very thin and dry. The portions were small and way too expensive. Too bad.

This is my favorite beer! And when I'm in Germany, I can't help but visit this place.

We were there with the department for the beginning of the year celebration. Well organized event with 3 courses and drinks flat rate. We were initially 70 people due to illness and then only 60 people. No problem at all and I can absolutely recommend it for larger groups.

Very expensive compared to other Berlin restaurants…

I’ve been to many Paulaner restos in different parts of Germany and enjoyed the experience. Unfortunately, this branch left a bitter taste in my mouth. My German friend was speaking to one of the waiters to get us a table for 2 - “Einen Tisch für mich und das Geburtstagskind (pointing and referring to me because it was my birthday) bitte”. The waiter replied with “Hier gibt es nichts umsonst” and then unenthusiastically pointed at a table. To imply that we were looking for free stuff was totally unnecessary and rude. We stayed because we always want to be the bigger people in situations like this. However, the restaurant should be made aware of this kind of behavior from their personnel.

It is a personal assessment of the type of franchise restaurants, impersonal, large and noisy. The staff's attention was quick and the beer was good but it seemed expensive for a couple of plates of sausages, a beer, water and bread (57 euros)

The Paulaner Wirtshaus is located on the ground floor and is easily accessible in a central location, which gives it 5 points. Unfortunately, the ambience is modern and has absolutely nothing to do with coziness. The checkered Bavarian tablecloths don't make a difference either. Our nice Asian waitress deserves 5 points. The food wasn't bad but it wasn't particularly sophisticated either. If you go there with your friends and drink a delicious beer, everything I wrote here will soon be forgotten 😉

Bavarian ambience, in the middle of Berlin. Delicious food and drinks. Friendly service.

It is a known chain originating from Munich, but it is on the expensive side (even compared to Munich). The portion size vs. price is a bit disappointing.

Lovely place, good food, what else do you need to know?

First of all, I was born in Bavaria. I was invited there with a group of Americans. Unfortunately, the food there has little to do with hearty Bavarian cuisine. Many finished products, e.g. B. Potato salad. I had a schnitzel with fries. The schnitzel is rock hard and dry, the fries are deep fried. Also all finished products, no fresh schnitzel. The prices are high (22€, Wiener Schnitzel 30€, Radlerhalbe 5.60€). The Nuremberg bratwursts were shriveled and dry, as if they had been fried and then kept warm. The small salad drowned in ready-made dressing, I couldn't eat it. The beer was poured very poorly, without a head of foam (maybe warm glasses were used?). I was almost a bit ashamed that the Americans thought: this is Bavaria. I am proud of my origins and the tradition in Bavaria, unfortunately this has nothing to do with it. Unfortunately I don't recommend it. I have to mention the service positively! Very good.

The food was fabulous, the service was wonderful. Unfortunately it was a bit noisy so I couldn't have a quiet conversation with my wonderful companion.

I loved the atmosphere, the food and the beers!!

A modern "Bier Keller" serving traditional Munich style food. We arrived just before 8pm and managed to get a table without waiting. As many traditional German restaurants, the portions were huge and with a great selection of Munich Paulaner beers. Great sharing dishes for groups large or small. Friendly efficient service a few minutes from Potsdamer Platz station.

The three stars are for the very nice service. The food doesn't deserve a star. Price performance is bad. 22 euros for this chicken schnitzel. Underground.

Me and my family (5 people) came for dinner as our last meal in Berlin. The drinks were served straight away but the service for food, bill and to take orders was extremely slow. The food was okay, we all finally ordered (some things weren’t available) but it was all confirmed. Me and my brothers food came out but as we were served ours the waiter told us that my parents food wasn’t available. So we were not able to eat together and they were told their dishes weren’t available when the rest of the food came. A good place for drinks but wouldn’t recommend dinner.

Very nice place in the center of the city. Found by chance. Good food, good beer and fun. Highly recommended.

Reservations are recommended from 6 p.m.

The actual food they serve is good, but the preparation is not. Sausage and sauerkraut comes with very good mashed potatoes that aren’t very hot. The sauerkraut is good, but the sausage has been pre-cooked and then reheated so it’s dry. The food here could be quite good, but they’re just not putting any effort into it.

Great food and service. Let down by third world toilet hygiene

Service was really great, but the food was a total flop. Children's portion larger than a normal one and tastes terribly bad.

I can only show you an empty plate because we enjoyed the Bavarian trio and breads too much to make a photo at the start 😄. Great food, great beer and great personnel!

Shame for Bavaria!! There is also a reclaimer in the shop: “Munich art of brewing”, but you cannot enjoy this because of the extremely poor pouring skills!

Overall, a great restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. However, the prices are excessively high.

Very crowded and correspondingly loud at times of Christmas celebrations. The staff was very friendly, tried hard, but was sometimes overwhelmed due to the number of guests. Drink orders sometimes took a while, even after repeated requests. The food was great. In quieter times there is bound to be something special.

Good restaurant with good price-performance ratio. Typical Bavarian cuisine.

Nice brewery, quick service. Recommended, price performance is right.

Food very tasty. Goulash is very good and the meat is very soft. The price worth and the place is very nice. The waiters is very polite and calm. They have a nice beer as well. The pork knuckle has a very crunch and nice skin.

The food was good. There was a wide range of German food and the portions were plentiful.

OK. Something can go wrong anywhere. What is convincing here is the complaint management.

The beer tastes delicious. However, I unfortunately have to say the cleanliness really leaves a lot to be desired. However, if you do have to go to the toilet, it won't be nice. Cleanliness and lighting should be reconsidered.

Delicious half chicken, nice ambiance

Great atmosphere, delicious food, unfortunately the level of service depended heavily on the waiter. Nevertheless, we recommend it!

Super tasty beer, extensive menu (with beer and food). A bit uncomfortable in a new building, but fine inside. Service in lederhosen, as it should be.

The worst cheese spaetzle I've ever eaten. The service was subpar

I booked 2 lanes of curling for my family and friends and then reserved a table. The communication in advance was very uncomplicated. Everything went well, the food we ordered in advance tasted very good and the service was quick and friendly. We had a very nice evening and would love to come back.

Greet food. Good beer. Staff were not overly friendly.

Excellent food, reasonable prices. Would definitely return

Delicious food and great beer. We'll come back for another family meal before we head home from Germany.

Enjoyed the meatloaf. Great texture with a slightly sweet and savoury sauce on the side, and a great potato salad.

Make sure you have enough tips, otherwise you risk excessive disrespect!!! Incident from December 1st, 2024, around 2:30 p.m.: After we saw the Paulaner Wirtshaus and spontaneously ordered two wheat beers “quickly,” the “waiter” made it clear to us in a very blunt manner that “we can then pay directly.” - Based on this request - it was not a request - payment was made immediately. Since the tip apparently did not meet the waiter's needs, he made this unmistakably clear by turning back to his colleagues and loudly mocking and laughing at us as paying customers during the payment process. Finally he went to the rest of the staff and described the incident there again in an arrogant, disrespectful manner. It was hard to ignore, as the rest of the customers were also surprised by the behavior. Regardless of the fact that the tip did not cause anyone to jump for joy, there should definitely be a certain degree of respect in the restaurant, but unfortunately this was in no way the case on the part of the waiter. The Paulaner Wirtshaus is actually very inviting. However, the incident that day caused a huge amount of anger, so I unfortunately have to write this post in order to avoid future grievances. It's a shame, we were actually looking forward to the wheat beer :)

We had our company Christmas party here. It was great! There was good organization and friendly advice from the managing director, Mr. Scheidt. The food was great - we had classic goose legs, red cabbage, kale and dumplings. A cold snack platter beforehand and all sorts of sweets afterwards. All highly recommended.

Relatively expensive, but very tasty. The atmosphere is more modern-Bavarian. For my personal taste it could be a little more traditional.

Price-performance ratio is not right here at all! Sausage pan with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes + mulled wine (seasonal) + water = 37 euros 🤯 If everything were fresh, I would revise the rating upwards, but the sausages were not fresh, completely shriveled from being kept warm for hours and the mulled wine was lukewarm. In terms of taste, the sauerkraut was great and the waiter was really nice too. It feels like you're paying a lot more for the central location!

Gladly again. There were 13 of us, so in a small group. Luckily we had reserved beforehand. The service was not intrusive, but always with a good eye on us, so that our requests were always answered immediately. Even though it was busy, it wasn't too loud. The food was good, home-style. If you want something special and have high standards, you just have to go somewhere else. Our group thought it was delicious and was full. We felt very comfortable.

We spontaneously decided to eat there and didn't regret it. We had free choice of seating, were served in a nice and friendly manner and the food was just so delicious. We can recommend it to everyone.

Food was very tasty. Service was quick and super nice and the ambience was appropriate for a tavern. Can't complain.

Walked in and placed an order for takeout. Came back about 30 minutes later to collect my order, upon double checking I noticed they did not provide the pretzel with the sausage plate as listed. Asked the server and it was quickly remedied. I should have investigated further. When I got home I realized they did not provide the side salad with my pork schnitzel and the mustard provided with the white sausages was not honey mustard. If you order delivery or takeout from this location be sure to double check your order before accepting . EDIT: my review was flagged and removed for “false engagement” but it has been reinstated after appeal. I will contact the restaurant as they have requested and post a follow up.

Paulaner Wirtshaus Berlin on Potsdamer Platz is a really cozy German pub. There is room here for all types, even for those who are not fond of beer. But if you like good German beer, this is the place. If you're really thirsty, you can order a beer ønde with 30 liters of beer to share! You can also just settle for a standard 1 liter beer, or something smaller if you are not thirsty enough. Besides that, you can be served good German food, and in portions big enough to fill a grown man! we visited the place twice, but they forgot something or the other each time, but we got a free beer each time, which you shouldn't complain about. Super good service and good atmosphere.

We returned from a trip around the city and were looking for a decent meal. We decided to go in here. The restaurant was beautifully decorated with plants and wreaths. We didn't reserve a table and it was full, but the staff tried hard and managed to organize a place. I ordered a currywurst. The waiting time for the food was good. The food, however, leaves something to be desired. The fries weren't very crispy and the currywurst wasn't anything special either. The curry sauce was very good, although served in a sparse amount. For an additional charge there was some extra sauce. The toilets are clean and hygienic. The staff are friendly, but unfortunately the food is just average.

I wouldn't go there again to eat: the schnitzel I ordered unfortunately turned out to be cheap frozen meat that was served dark brown, dry and resistant to cuts. My complaint was accepted without any problems: after a few minutes I received a new frozen schnitzel - probably from the microwave. As revenge from the kitchen for my criticism, this time there was neither a deep fryer nor a pan. The dry side salad couldn't save the dish either.

We went there twice, once with customers for a beer and the next evening with a colleague for dinner. Both times we received quick and friendly service, even though the store was busy both times. Paulaner beers need no explanation, and the food was very good too. Quite okay in terms of price. I can highly recommend it.

Tasty, reasonable prices, good service. I recommend

45 minute wait for drinks. Disappointing!

Places for a larger group are very unfavorable... Some food was very small portion... Cappuccino too small and almost cold for €4... Beer very bad for a brewery... Many opportunities for improvement...

Very solid restaurant for small and big groups of German food’s and beer’s lovers! I strongly recommend if you want to know quality cuisine as well as excellent draft Paulaner’s beers. Try platters for 2-3 persons, good selection and prices.

I imagine something different when I think of a Paulaner tavern. The ambience was clean and tidy. The service was top notch. However, the knuckle was not worthy of a Paulaner. The crust was dried out and neither edible nor cuttable. The dumpling is delicious. And there was so little space between the tables that I have rarely experienced. At least on the upper floor. Here you realize it's about money. Nevertheless, praise for the service - that should be the benchmark for the cuisine and ambience.

Nice modern beer hall in the center of Berlin. We only drank so I can't say how the food was. The beer obviously excellent

German food is not sophisticated. It has to be well executed to be good. The food at his place is a travesty, deeply disappointing, and totally unrepresentative of what German food should be. It is also colossally overpriced. The good reviews are surely just because most of the patrons are tourists. As a foreigner well versed and in love with this country's cuisine, trust me, if you want good German food, or good food of any sort, go elsewhere.

The place is very nice, spacious, clean. We went there for dinner after the Berlin marathon and it was very full but the wait was reasonable. Delicious and plentiful dishes and prices in line with the Berlin average. We loved it... it's our favorite restaurant in Berlin to eat typical food.

Purely tourist place, excellent beer, mediocre food. Good service

There was no meat in my schnitzel, it was just breading... and the fries were soft and saturated with fat.

A very nice place to try some german food. It is not like the most traditional you can have, but still a good alternative and the atmosphere is cool. We visited with a couple of friends and we felt really comfortable by the warm welcome of the waitress. She went through the menu with us helping us decide between dishes and beers. we will definitely come again on our next visit to berlin.

Nice cozy place. Very friendly service. Honest cuisine. We feel good there. Quite simply

The staff was very nice. Actually, I don't care about complaining, but unfortunately the taste of my dish wasn't right. I had the chicken schnitzel with potatoes. These tasted like they were 2 days old, the accompanying salad was topped with a dry slice of cucumber and served without dressing. However, after my kind comment, I immediately received a new salad. You could also tell that the chicken schnitzel was frozen. This is much better. But you can only get better if the negative is honestly stated.

Atmosphere, food and beer are fantastic.

Had a really fantastic Bavarian meal here with the appropriate beer to go with it. Our kids loved it too.

Very disappointed, at 7 p.m. no more ham! More spinach to accompany the salmon as expected. In short, tourist trap.

Delicious food and drinks! Recommended to visit.

Very tasty restaurant with nice service and great food. The dessert platter for 2 people is amazing, and my mixed plate was also very tasty. However, I would have liked a slice of meatloaf on the plate. The price is a bit more expensive but still ok.

Schnitzel is similar to an outdoor pool frozen schnitzel and that's how it tasted. Spaetzle lukewarm to cold and bland. Only the Paulaner Pils in measure was convincing. For the price you can eat much better in Berlin. I would come back just for the beer.

It's like being in Munich, food not the best but beer flows and ambiance is nice

A delicious meal for a normal price. Very friendly staff and nice beer.

Everything was good... but somehow there wasn't a real tavern atmosphere here (not particularly rustic furnishings + English-speaking waiter (completely okay, of course, but somehow it doesn't fit with such a Bavarian location)). Hopefully only that evening, but you could smell the toilet at the top of the stairs... It was busy on a Friday evening... so better make a reservation. Card payment✅

Not much going on and still waited a long time, the food for the 4 of us was just lukewarm. The food was still delicious and we would come back. There was also schnapps on the house.

Tourist-heavy, but overall quite pleasant.

Ich habe hier mit den schlechtesten Espresso meines Lebens getrunken. Er war so sauer, dass sowohl ich als auch meine Frau den Espresso nicht ausgetrunken haben. Man ist es von Berlin ja gewöhnt, dass die hiesigen Kaffeerösterei den Kaffee zu Tode brennen. Aber so ein ungenießbarer Kaffee ist mir wirklich fast noch nie untergekommen. Ich kann nur empfehlen: einen weiten Bogen um The Barn machen. Und noch ein Nachsatz: die Bedienung versucht erst gar nicht, die Landessprache zu sprechen. Es wird erwartet, dass man Englisch spricht. Kein:e Geflüchtete:r könnte sich das erlauben. Da wird mindestens B1 erwartet. Den meisten Expats ist das egal. Das ist auch eine Form von Kulturimperialismus.

Very tasty food, served fast! The service girl was too serious that is why I put 4 for service. The served portions were big, freshly cooked.

Schnitzel is unpalatable, tastes like chicken nugget from mac. We asked for mayo but were given a bowl of cheese spread. Nice Chinese in the service
