Serways Raststätte Am Kahlberg West in Mittenwalde

The food is not tasty, the toilet is paid, I do not recommend it!

18:20 closed, supposedly a water failure, and 2 toi toi were put up. Failure!!

The one robust female employee with short red hair was unfortunately in a very bad mood. She kept a sulky expression the whole time and prepared the food carelessly, sometimes just stuffing it into boxes with her hands. Hygiene aside, it didn't taste too bad and was still warm.

The ladies at the checkout don't seem to be very enthusiastic or customer-friendly. You pay for your overpriced coffee (okay, that's typical at motorway service stations) and then they practically throw you a paper cup and expect you to make your own coffee.

First off, the food is very tasty for a rest stop. I do have one small complaint, though: the staff was extremely slow... I've never seen anyone work so slowly anywhere else. Still, 5 stars 👍

It's a shame that the restaurant is closing and another McDonald's is opening! You can hardly get a normal breakfast, lunch, or dinner anywhere anymore!

Restroom topic: The friendliness of the gentleman who handles the change needs some serious work... I don't know if a customer in such a bad mood should be ripped off; next time, I'd rather pee in a bush. Neither of the soap dispensers was refilled, but luckily, the gentlemen didn't mind me getting some from their room. At least they were nice! ;)

We often use the rest stop as a meeting point when we go on tour 🏍.

I do not recommend!!! You pay for the toilet and the toilet is closed... Staff unwilling

Small service station, but very clean, great value for money, food was prepared quickly and delicious....

A wonderful holiday and delicious food, gladly to return

The two older ladies behind the counter were unfriendly. We would never shop there again.

Dirty, but paying for the toilet is okay if it's cleaned. Toilet seats were dirty, and the automatic cleaning system didn't work.

A good place to break your journey.

The toilet can't be described any better than the bushes. It's the 21st century, and in the middle of it...

Waiting in line for 15 minutes for a coffee when there are only two people in front of you, and then receiving a Milka chocolate that was already completely white due to age. Ugh.

Beautifully designed rest area, highly recommended

€1 for clean restrooms? Totally acceptable! Especially since you can get the completely overpriced, overly weak coffee for a bit less with a voucher. As I said, if it's clean, it's not full of shit. You probably won't want to eat there anymore!

Every time we drive to the Baltic Sea or Berlin, we stop here. No matter the time, the ladies and gentlemen in the kitchen are always nice and friendly. And the food tastes good, which isn't always a given at rest stops.

Spoiler alert: My review relates exclusively to the restrooms. Unfortunately, there's a lack of toilet paper and terrible hygiene in the women's restroom. The men's restroom was locked. These are Sanifair restrooms, which require a fee. I can't comment on the other services. However, the staff member responded kindly when I pointed this out to her.

- The visit to your rest area/farm was very good. - The charging station for electric cars is child's play (just hold the card that is approved for the vehicle, and then charging begins.

Took a sandwich instead of cooked food, there was a long queue, otherwise a good stop for a bus trip😻😀😎😍

Delicious coffee, smooth service, it's ok

We regularly stop on the west and east sides. Sure, it's a bit more expensive, but it's right next to the highway. The cleanliness of the outside area is acceptable, but everyone needs to take a look at themselves. The toilet fee has increased in recent years and can only be offset against the purchase of an item. Therefore, we always bring a fresh coffee with us; we've never ordered food. If you don't want to use the toilet fee, you have to exit the highway or drive to the nearest free rest area, where the cleanliness is usually even worse. All in all, recommended.

Expensive food and drinks 🥵 Expensive paid toilets 🤮

Unfortunately, the women's restrooms weren't clean (the floor was sticky), the toilet paper was all gone, and the smell was bad. The men's restrooms were fine.

I like stopping there. The staff is always friendly, as they were today, just before they closed for work. Everything's clean, and there's always something for me to eat... schnitzel with fries. 😋👍🏼

Beautiful location and great Bockwurst. 😉

Good place to take a break, you can order refreshments and sit inside and outside.

Our relatives work here) Thank you guys))

Dog food is better... what disgusting food, I have no words to describe the most disgusting pieces of fried chicken I have ever eaten in my life.

The toilets stink, not everything works (e.g., the toilet seat is broken), and you pay €1 for that. There's no soap, and the guy behind the counter chats forever with his friend (apparently, he didn't know the language). I don't know who's in charge of service and the toilets, but it's not nice.

Just a simple rest stop. Restrooms cost extra, and everything else comes from a deep fryer, except for the coffee.

Hard baguette (from the day before?), orders aren't understood, and what's absolutely unacceptable: employees rude to customers. At least there are plenty of seats in the parking lot, some with shade.

Clean and well-maintained restrooms. Friendly staff.

Disgusting clogged toilets that don't work yet and they want money for it

I didn't eat or drink there, but the restroom was a disaster: dirty and smelly, but the best (or rather, worst) part was that the cleaning lady (a woman) entered the men's room literally seconds after I unzipped my fly. She could have knocked earlier, or she could have backed out upon seeing me without pants, but not only didn't, she started mopping the floor right next to my feet. I can't remember when I felt so uncomfortable. I tried to speak to the manager, but I was told, "He's not here." Maybe she reads the comments? Because other Google Maps users certainly do. Disgusting

I'm giving it one star for the friendliness of the staff and the delicious hot chocolate. There's zero hygiene when preparing food. The restroom was simply disgusting early in the morning. There was urine on the toilet seats, toilet paper all over the floor. It's a disgrace to charge for something like that.

Very friendly staff and delicious sandwiches, without mayo! Update December 2023/January 2024: The two women's parking spaces are almost always occupied by men. Since I don't want to get out in a dark corner and then walk to the bistro, you'll have to do without me as a customer. Perhaps replacing the lights on the "Women's Parking" sign would help. One star less as of today, and I've lost a long-time customer. Payment only by card, you seem to be making a noise!

The women's restroom is dirty while the cleaning staff stands around at the payment machine... There's no need to waste any more words on the significantly inflated prices...

A clean rest stop with friendly service and a good selection for a quick break on the road. It's a real pleasure to stop here 😊

So far, it's a rest area like many others. Except the playground is very dirty with trash and cigarette butts, and some parts are broken.

Clean, affordable, great service. Lots of shade and trees. A great place to relax on the road.

Using the toilet is not free but there are vouchers.

Clean parking with small imbiss shower and toilet fine. 👍👍

The parking lot and dining room made a decent impression. Espresso was served in a paper cup, even though I wanted to eat something in the restaurant. I can't recommend the breakfast offering of fried egg and bacon. It was dripping oil that tasted of all sorts of things; it wasn't enjoyable.

Dirty/ charging stations do not work

I stop there regularly, there is a bathroom, the parking lot is under constant video surveillance

Breakfast was acceptable and really the last resort before visiting the tropical island.

On August 31, 2025, at 7 a.m., the toilets were absolutely disgusting. And then there was the 1 euro charge. The toilet mafia was still sleeping here. Not recommended inside or out. As the saying goes: Please give it a wide berth. Best regards, Ole

What can you say about rest stops? Clean yes but much too expensive.

Sanifair for €1.00. Super dirty. The faucets are calcified, the automatic toilet seat cleaning system doesn't work. The landlord needs to check that. The toilet paper holder is broken. Everything is covered in... It's a disgrace to charge for this. I'd gladly give it negative stars.

Unfortunately, the entire outdoor area is very dirty from people who can't behave. The rest stop is OK.

The restrooms aren't clean at all. It costs €1, but the customer doesn't get anything nice in return.

Nice clean place to rest while traveling, good food, pleasant service. It was just a bit of a problem to find an empty parking space (heavy highway traffic). The visit was pleasant. I recommend

Just used the leftover space to rest

The toilet wasn't clean, and the automatic toilet seat cleaning system didn't work! But the main thing is that the payment machine is modern.

Really bad food. Tasteless. Couldn't cook and serve what we ordered. Not fresh.

Nice little rest stop for a short rest.

Toilet 1 euro. Food bad and expensive.

A great rest stop where they serve very good coffee.

I highly recommend this place for a rest stop and will stop there again next time. Friendly staff, beautiful grounds, good food. There's also a memorial stone there; I'd love to know who wrote the text.

Toilet for 1€, coupon can be used in the shop

It is a motorway service station

Loud, cold, and uninviting. Okay for a quick bite.

Yes, it's fine, it's a pretty decent cabin. There's something for every taste. It's super quick, too.

We didn't go to the rest stop, just to the parking lot, but that was enough. There was dog feces everywhere, not just in the grassy areas. It stank utterly of urine and human feces.

The toilet stinks and is extremely dirty. And you pay €1 for that!

The women's restroom smells very unpleasantly of urine, the soap dispenser works poorly, and the disinfectant is empty, all for only €1. It's truly insane. The Coffee Fellows didn't look appealing at all. The windows were fogged up with heavy condensation, and the food inside had seen better days. We've seen it quite differently at other Coffee Fellows shops at other rest stops.

An expensive motorway service station

What can I say it is a motorway service station

Nice place, good staff, it was nice to stay. But there is a lack of cleanliness in some moments, the person tries to clean the table and everything is clean and cleans up after the client immediately, but somewhere it is not as it should be, I think that the essence of cleaning should be done by a special person and done flawlessly, this is the place where it is very important to be perfect. I believe that you can be even better. The menu is not bad, you could add more interesting signature offers, otherwise the chicken with fries is very dry, add something interesting, surprise people.

Very boring and tasteless food but what else can you expect from a gas station food.

⭐☆☆☆☆ – Very unhygienic The restroom was very dirty, with papers lying everywhere on the floor. It smelled unpleasant, and cleaning seemed to have been neglected. Absolutely disappointing for a paid facility. Not recommended!

Limited selection, like all rest stops, not a bargain. Clean and tidy

Normal rest stop with a small playground

Crowded, toilets not clean despite paying, loads of people who were there even without cars....

Go here if you want to get verbally abused by the cleaner just for wanting to use the toilet after paying for it or if you want to watch the workers get yelled by their superiors !

A rest stop like any other, which only makes money on paid toilets and then you have to shamefully stand in line to get a coffee.

Nice staff, but the prices are absolutely unacceptable. The coffee is more expensive than in decent hotels.

Restroom use costs €0.70, not including food. Hardly anything warm and edible was under €10. The pretzel, supposedly filled with butter, cost €2.79 and contained only traces of butter. Grumpy staff. Next time, I'll stop somewhere else if possible. My review concerns the direction toward Berlin. There's also a rest stop on the other side of the highway.

Using the toilet already costs 1 euro! That's completely disproportionate. Even such a human need becomes a luxury.

I just wanted to use the restroom for a moment. The entire restroom area, literally everything, was under 2 cm of water. But that wasn't damage; a cleaning lady had flooded everything and was using a water vacuum in the women's restrooms. Women probably couldn't even use their restrooms because otherwise their pants would have ended up in the puddle. Not much fun for a lot of money.

Two disgusting dishes that do not match the description or the photo on the menu. All this for almost 23 euros!!! Disgusting! I do not recommend!!! Never again.

Currywurst with fries, terrible and expensive

If you don't have to, please move on. Staff overwhelmed, manager unfriendly. The energy drink mixed at the Coffee Fellows counter consisted only of syrup and mineral water (!) - Special offers suddenly became significantly more expensive, without any notice from the staff. Sorry, but never again.

Customer-friendly doesn't look like much! Currywurst on sale for €6.99 When I asked for it, the "nice" staff said in a gruff, irritated tone that it had expired, even though this promotion was advertised everywhere. The drinks were very, very inconvenient! I ordered an energy drink. Fruit syrup with seltzer. You're surprised and look for the "energy" drink. And €5.50 for that? The wait was endless. Thanks, never again.

Disorganized, unfriendly, and the salad was very mediocre. It's best to avoid everything.

Small rest area, unfortunately without a gas station. Only electric cars can be charged. Restrooms and small snacks are available.

It was a different kind of typical highway rest stop, seemingly not part of the well-known chain. Expensive, but somehow different.

Unfortunately, the man at the checkout didn't know that the shower was supposedly broken. Oh well, no problem. After a long wait, the lady (who was cleaning) very rudely told me that the shower was broken and nothing would work. I was polite and respectful to her, so why not you to me?! 0 stars

Good selection and a playground for the children

I DIDN'T GET 10 liters of water into the canister.

Good coffee and muffins. Reasonable prices

They have good staffs and good market and good place for resting but WC was not free. We already buying something why we should pay for WC. When you go a restaurant will you pay money for wc? Just bad thing is that

The shower doesn't work, maybe it's just a temporary thing.

Good and clear, with children's playground

Terrible, like all German rest stops.

The food selection is limited, all frozen, but quite expensive and not very inviting. Only worth a stop if you have to...

Food is good. Restrooms are clean.
