Restaurant Schoenbrunn in Berlin

Lovely little place in a beautiful park. We came over for some beers. They were affordable and quite good. From the terrace you have a lovely view of the park, people and birds. Also the architecture of this place is great DDR architecture which I enjoyed very much.

This afternoon I wanted to have coffee with three women over 80 years old in Café Schönbrunn. Unfortunately the café was closed. There was no notice of the closure either on the internet or at the café. Inside we saw 2 men who ignored us and didn't respond to calls. We were very disappointed because we wanted to meet up for coffee and cake before the holidays.

nice restaurant with a nice view. great atmosphere

Nice location, but the overall quality of the food has deteriorated and the heating didn't work again, in November.

Breakfast on Sunday: Service very slow, cappuccino & hot chocolate were both hot milk drinks with very little taste. Food was mediocre - no avocado in the avocado toast; English breakfast was made from ready-made products that were made warm. Big disappointment!

Do you really want to go to a restaurant that can't handle criticism? Regarding my factual but critical review - originally 3 stars! - I received a message that my post had been deleted after the operator objected. The accusation is: defamation Dear operators of the Schoenbrunn restaurant: how about you use your energy to optimize the service to your customers instead of deleting critical reviews? My original review reads: "Food is ok in terms of price-performance ratio - but nothing more. Service is limited: tried to be friendly, attention leaves a lot to be desired."

✌️🥰 Kaiserschmarrn was great, service could be more attentive.

Since I know that giving a bad but correct review doesn't help your business, I generally refrain from doing that as I am an entrepreneur myself. Only today I'm making an exception because a slightly hard-of-hearing, snotty bartender pointed out to me that I should say hello before I could say anything, which I duly did when I entered. No wonder that the Berliner enjoys such a bad reputation in the world. As a German, I am ashamed of such behavior from an apparent native.

Nice restaurant in Friedrichshain

Schönbrunn is a great place to sit in the sunshine and enjoy an Aperol Spritz. However, when looking at the menu you have to hold on to your wallet...

We were there in a larger group. Food was very good, but rather €€ for the portions. Still, everything is very good. Nice environment right in the park. Toilets take some getting used to, but there's always something.

The four of us came by here around 5:30 p.m. after a long walk through the park, a little cold. The sign outside the door asked us to wait outside until we were assigned a seat. So we, like the woman in front of us, waited with a stroller. When it was our turn and we expressed our desire for a table in the warm indoor area to have a drink, we had to wait again. The interior was almost completely empty. We didn't understand what the problem was. But then we kept waiting. After a while two men came to the door again. We heard something about reservations starting at 8 p.m. (2 1/2 hours later!) and then we were told we could sit outside. Everything is inside! reserved. As cold as we were, we declined and left. And we probably won't come here to eat again. It's a shame I have to give it one star. He doesn't deserve it.

You've heard a lot of positive things, but I can't repeat that. The staff is absolutely overwhelmed and has no overview of who has ordered and who hasn't. The ambience leaves a lot to be desired. The tables are greasy and the floor even more so. The fact that dogs are allowed in what is actually a clean and hygienic environment is an absurdity. The prices are cheeky for what is offered. Everything seems unstructured and overwhelmed. The staff licks their fingers when the cake isn't properly on the plate and brings it to the table, simply disgusting. The cloth for cleaning the table is in a cooling jug where something should normally be kept cold. Hygiene is the last thing. I am very disappointed. The company's management should make further improvements and train employees on the subject of hygiene. In addition, the menus are simply ridiculous, some pieces of paper on the clipboard that are crumpled and dirty. And being addressed as first person is simply rude. The kitchen door is open, simply unbelievable.

Potato gratin was very al dente and only lukewarm. Food too expensive for what was brought. Service very nice and helpful.

Wir sind ohne Reservierung hin und bekamen sofort einen Tisch. Die Kellner waren sehr aufmerksam und nett. Wir hatten ein Wiener Schnitzel (original) und einen gerösteten Blumenkohl mit Rote Bete Mus und Humus. Beides war sehr gut und die Portionen waren groß. Der Blumenkohl war ausgefallen und echt mal was Anderes

Incredibly nice service, delicious food and a beautiful ambience - like in a fairy tale 🐸👸👑

We felt completely comfortable here. Sure it's a bit pricey, but the quality of the food was excellent and worth the price. Pleasant, unobtrusive service rounded off the stay. And even though it actually ends at 11 p.m., we were still able to finish our bottle of wine in peace and leave the restaurant 30 minutes after closing time. So thumbs up!

Very nice setting and very good service I had a great time there

Eating like before 1989 in Berlin's Volkspark D Friedrichshain 🇩🇪🛠️🇨🇳🇷🇺❤️

I've been going to Schönbrunn regularly for almost 2 decades... it's still delicious and good! The beer garden next door is also great… It's a shame that there are no more parties where the Märtini Brös play on the roof :)

Guest on September 14th and super satisfied!!! Excellent cuisine paired with confident service - what more could I want? I had the impression that friendliness was practiced here and that the staff's smiles were not professionalism. Everyone was friendly and accommodating - it was simply a successful evening. The restaurant is very easy to reach and recommended for families. Many thanks to the entire team - I look forward to the next visit!!!!

Very tasty food and excellent service

Beautiful restaurant in a beautiful park. Delicious food... sometimes something unusual! Super nice staff! Highly recommended!👍👍

Beer garden closes before the advertised closing time, in our instance it was closed at 7.30 (mid September). The restaurant remained open but is expensive: nearly 30 Euros for a schnitzel. We had a small but expensive beer and left.

Amazing location in the nature. Good beers and good food. Also the pizza is very good - a nice option to share with friends with a couple of beers in a sunny sunday!

Great beer garden. Always happy to come here. Delicious pizza and bratwurst.

A lovely evening with great drinks & food! We'll be back!!!! 🥂😊

We celebrated our wedding here and it was simply wonderful! Great food and great service team! We can highly recommend!

We went to the restaurant for breakfast. It's nice to sit on the terrace with a view of the Volkspark and the food was excellent. Extremely friendly and attentive service, all in all highly recommended!

I would have liked to try it, but it is only open on weekends. The beer garden doesn't open until 3 p.m. during the week - visitors have to make do with Viennese and rolls at the kiosk. Kind of sad...

Everything is fine in this place that invites you to linger for a long time. Happy to come here to consume a cool crystal 😎😘 Quick staff who sometimes just don't get seen. So the freaks in the self-service area, move your ovaries, especially those who can read have a clear advantage. Thanks to the great staff😘😘😎👍

Actually great, just because of the location, but not for those on a budget... Still coming back😋

I went to the Kiosk, outside of the main salon of the Restaurant. The kiosk is perfect to take that cup of coffee with a Pretzel or a "Wurst mit Brot". Or, if you prefer, you can take an ice-cream. Both ways, you can take away or sit and enjoy it under one of the charming umbrellas.

DANGER! Don't go to the beer garden!!!! Closes uncontrollably early. Friday evening in midsummer, 8:20 p.m. A pizza please. Kitchen already closed! Why? I couldn't see if the beer garden was only half full. Not worth it. It wasn't my first attempt to eat a pizza in the beer garden there in the evening. Always failed. Again today at 8:50 p.m. Of course the kitchen has been closed for a long time. You can't go too early either, there's nothing there yet. If you happen to pass by, you can try to get a pizza, but drive there specifically for that? That makes you angry. But I don't want to be unaccounted for. There is certainly a time window of 30-45, maybe even 60 minutes when the kitchen is open. However, I never caught the time slot and won't try to catch it again.

Was in the kiosk/beer garden. Busy on weekends but you can find your spot. Good place for a break in between.

My wife and I celebrated our wedding here in May. As a bride and groom, you are already super happy on this day, but the restaurant, especially with its incredibly attentive and friendly staff, ensured even more happiness and satisfaction on this day/evening/night! The quality of the food is unique and remains in the memory of every guest. The large terrace is ideal for a wedding reception. I think every restaurant has been struggling to find employees for several years. The staff at Schoenbrunn seem to love their job, as they fulfilled our and our guests' every wish and were committed and friendly until late into the night. If you are looking for a location in Berlin that leaves an impression not only visually but also culinary wise, I heartily recommend the Schoenbrunn! For all people without a big celebration: treat yourself to the fantastic food! dearest greetings

Very nice, especially since there are a lot of memories attached to it. It's nice that this restaurant still exists, good food, very friendly team, nice atmosphere and beautiful area 🍀

Service rather below standard in terms of friendliness, sausages were great though and drinks ok as well, nicely positioned place for leisure time.

Unfortunately not good service. The location in the park is very nice. The guest just doesn't feel welcome here.

Top location, but lacks attention to detail. Expensive.

A very nice restaurant, located in a park, with a nice outside area to sit. The service is friendly, despite the fact that the restaurant is always very busy. They offer breakfast and a menu.

Very nice, courteous service, top quality food.

Great place, food was mediocre and not particularly tasty. But the location is great.

Nice restaurant in the countryside.

Schönbrunn is a good restaurant, the food is delicious, lovingly prepared and served in a friendly manner by the quick staff. The surroundings of the park and the lake make a visit to Schönbrunn perfect.

So gorgeous, middle of East Berlin's largest, most sumptuous park - a fountain midst of a lake facing the restaurant terrace and a circular shower for the kiddies off to the left - food was top notch, and served by pretty, friendly staff - thank you!

Was sceptical at first, due to small menu and higher prices, but both quality and service were amazing! Location is good as well, can recommend!

+ Nice spot (in the middle of the park) + very friendly service + delicious food

Die Bedienung ist äußerst aufmerksam und freundlich obwohl wir nur Getränke und Vorspeisen bestellt haben. Das Essen war vorzüglich. Gern kommen wir wieder.

Food is great! Selection, however, is small.

Ate outside on the terrace at Schönbrunn in the evening during the week. Very nice and attentive service. Map very / almost too clear…. Aperol Spritz was great, starter tomato burrata salad was also very good, but at 15.50 EUR it was very high priced... Main courses: Wiener Schnitzel was only OK for 30 EUR, chicken supreme with risotto was very good, whole sea bass couldn't be enjoyed by anyone ( !) had to be filleted...which would have made the eating experience much more pleasant, fish was rather carelessly prepared. Overall, given the price structure, it's pretty average! Location and staff very good, but overall a pleasant evening with room for improvement in the kitchen!

Waited more than 20 minutes only to be told that no hot drinks were served. Nothing is labeled anywhere and the staff didn't even say yes, sorry. But just sent me away!

On Wednesday evening, after jogging through the park, we just wanted to have a beer. After waiting in line for 10 minutes, we didn't move forward 1 meter, so we went to the next Späti. If you read the other reviews, there is probably a huge lack of organization, the concept should fit the number of seats 🤷‍♂️

Underground, at 22 degrees outside temperature, we waited 50 minutes for drinks, service was terrible.

Unfortunately we waited a long time for service.

Nice atmosphere, but that's about it

We recently stopped by the Schoenbrunn restaurant on a beautiful summer day with an acute thirst for Aperol. You are served at the tables with tablecloths, and the beer sets are self-service - but both from the same bar, where, when the weather is nice, there can be endless queues. In the end, the guests with table service also suffer because the employees cannot keep up with the orders. We waited 30 minutes for the drink itself and another 20 minutes for the bill. You have to have a lot of patience... and then of course it's not exactly cheap. But that's okay, the location and the view of the park and the lake are really nice. We didn't eat anything, so I can't comment on that.

Very nice location, especially very friendly service

Food was bad,, 29 euros for a badly fried snitzel, Dumpling spinach was 3 balls of stew. For 19. Euro. It is located in a nice park. Go there for a drink, but DO NOT eat there

cozy atmosphere what a great thing!!!! 🖖🏾👽✌🏾

Always nice there and simply delicious, great food and friendly service.

I love this place, there I always enjoy very good service, perfect environment and delicious dishes

There is also the option to eat together indoors with large groups. We were greeted with an exceptionally good white wine and treated to asparagus, schnitzel and salad. The schnitzel was freshly breaded and the asparagus was crunchy. Add the good wine and everything was good. Due to peak times there is a bit of a wait, but the staff was welcoming. You can park outside the park for free.

If you want to eat outside the street, you can do so here. This good home-style restaurant is in the middle of the park. There are some vegetarian options, but they are expensive too! The portions are rather small and I didn't really feel full.

It's going ok. The latte macchiato seems to be a vending machine coffee, the rest is simple standard at top prices.

Sehr schönes Ambiente im Volkspark Friedrichshain, Bedienung war freundlich. Essen war soweit in Ordnung, aber zu teuer!

Lunch on the terrace in this restaurant located in the heart of the park. Ideal conditions with a large shaded terrace and perfect weather. On the menu, German specialties. The quantities are generous. The dishes are good, made with fresh produce. Special mention for the apfelstrudel which was famous.

Déjeuner en terrasse dans ce restaurant situé au cœur du parc. Conditions idéales avec une grande terrasse ombragée et une météo parfaite. À la carte, des spécialités allemandes. Les quantités sont généreuses. Les plats sont bons, réalisés avec des produits frais. Mention spéciale pour l’apfelstrudel qui était fameux.

Nice atmosphere but high prices

Beautiful & well-kept restaurant area with indoor and outdoor areas. We recommend. The food was also very tasty and the service was great!🔝

Good, value for money Italian restaurant located in the middle of the Volkspark near Alexanderplatz.

On Friday the grill closed at 7 p.m. and all the other dishes were out. All that was left was salad and it was very expensive and ok. The location is great. There's also beer... there's definitely still some catching up to do with the kitchen...

Solid breakfast with nice service staff. From standard croissants to British breakfast with beans, bacon and eggs and Nürnberger sausages…

Super tasty Wienerschnitzel and Kaiserschmarrn

Schön gelegen im Park, aber total überlaufen. Zuwenig Personal, daher war das anwesende Personal total überfordert. Für einen gewöhnlichen Salat haben wir 1 Stunde gewartet. Zum bezahlen sicher 5x gerufen innert 30 Minuten. Qualität nichts besonderes. Auch zu teuer.

The worst organized beer garden ever. We waited in line for our beer for 45 minutes. Pizza looks really bad.

Delicious, great friendly service, in a wonderful place.

Delicious spinach dumplings, original Wiener Schnitzel - in the park with a view of the countryside. Just lovely.

Nice beer garden, but the “pizza” for 14 EUR doesn't deserve its name. Underground. Every frozen pizza has more taste. Beer is welcome here, but you should eat somewhere else.

A bit higher price category, but the food is really good and the staff is really friendly. It's better to make a reservation on the weekend, as it could get full. Then you have to take a lot of time until the overwhelmed staff notices you and you get the menu, even if you have reserved beforehand.

They have forced us to pay a tip when paying by card even though it is a self-service biergarten. The food has been served cold. The table was dirty full of crumbs from previous diners. They haven't given us knives but they have given us a spoon to eat cold lasagna. They didn't give my son a napkin for ordering pizza. I don't recommend it, it's also quite expensive.

Nice staff, great location. Top

Very slow service. The food is fine but overpriced. The view is beautiful.

Nice coffee atmosphere with Austrian food and cakes. However, the spinach dumplings were too heavy for me, floating in a large "lake of butter" and were greasy afterward, but they were still delicious.

Always and everything recommended

Quite overcrowded... but it's good that it exists

Service was OK A bit expensive, suitable for tourists Don't I have to go there again?

We were not served, despite repeated eye contact and raising our hands. After 10-15 minutes we decided to leave.

The food was a real disaster! Very thin, tasteless veal schnitzel with potato and radish salad??? When you looked at it, the industrial breading fell off completely, leaving only a hint of meat. Never again at this high price! My wife's fish fillet wasn't worth the money either! Actually 0 stars!!!

Nice ambience, I like it here… Varied menu, especially the schnitzel is excellent! Selected wine list, I particularly like the Austrian white wines. My favorite, however, is: sitting outside on the terrace, enjoying the sun and having a delicious breakfast…

Very relaxed on the terrace in summer. Inside is often hectic and restless. Service staff always courteous and super friendly but somehow charming. There are good and bad days there and overall still within the range of recommendations!

We ate here many times, they serve amazing breakfast and very good coffee. The service there is rather average except one guy, who is just extremely rude. One time he started to shout "don't you see there is no place" when I tried to join the table I was sat with my friends, I guess my baby's prom grew magically when I took it out for 10 mins.The other time he responded disrespectfully when I tried to order coffee to go, he claimed they don't serve it, why do I get every weekend then? I understand they were busy that day, I would not be bothered if he'd explained it in a kind way... one does not treat customers this way, simply unacceptable

A beautifully located beer garden. Unfortunately, it's completely overcrowded on weekends and public holidays. I like to meet up for a coffee at the location during the week when the weather is nice.

Traumhaft. !! Essen top. Freundliches Personal. Mitten im Grünen. Was will man mehr ? Der Schnitzel ist sehr zu empfehlen !!

Really great, of course very popular. You should reserve a table

Die Gegend ist sicher schön aber die Preise sind eine Frechheit! Alles total überteuert. Hier will der Eigentümer wohl richtig viel Gewinn machen auf Kosten des Gastes. Bitte meiden!

Great service, delicious dishes and moderate prices as well as a pleasant atmosphere in the green heart of the park. Nice but also to just enjoy a coffee.

Cool location, nice service, good environment.

The restaurant is located in the Volkspark Friedrichshain. A popular excursion destination in the middle of the city. Right next to a duck pond, you can get grilled specialties and ice cream in the outdoor area. Inside the gastronomy you will find seasonal culinary delights with traditional dishes for everyone. A good price-performance ratio.

UNDERGROUND! Don't do this to yourself. The staff was unfriendly, unsympathetic, arrogant and incompetent. The boss sat us at a table that was right next to the door and when we asked to sit at another table he just said: “It's just as bad.” I mean, that's an impertinence. I remembered the place to be better and more comfortable.
