Smashup! Burger in Aachen

There are gluten-free burgers and they are super delicious! The staff is specially trained and knows about celiac disease. There is even a second deep fryer that only uses gluten-free dishes.

Overpriced!!! Food was burnt and there was a small piece of mold in the sauce. Disgusting and unacceptable!!! We also had to wait far too long even though there was nothing going on and the staff was rude. We definitely won't come a second time.

Nice service and very tasty vegan burgers. The fries as a side dish are also highly recommended!

Friendly staff. Delicious burgers. Nice atmosphere. You can sit outside and inside. Good location.

Finally really good burgers and homemade sauces. A clear recommendation from me.

This place is truly amazing. The atmosphere is very nice, and you feel right at home. The service was super friendly and personable. The food was delicious, and the drinks were also excellent. Always worth a visit.

Overpriced and the food was burnt and otherwise not really convincing. There are much nicer burger restaurants with more atmosphere and much better food for less money.

I liked it very much. Own products, burgers and side dishes are very tasty and high quality. And the service was A1! 🤩

Eating a perfect ice cream sundae in the middle of the square is priceless😊

The price/performance ratio is somehow good. Drinks are quite expensive, and the service is good. ONE HUGE BUT Cash isn't accepted?!??!! For me, as of today, it's a no-go.

For us the tastiest burgers in Aachen! Cross and large, great toppings, fine sauces 👍🏼 Everything fits here. Regional products, everything homemade, delicious beer and great service. 1 serving of sweet potato fries with a burger each is enough for two people. The truffle mayo is mega! Always happy again 👌🏼😋

Really cool shop with delicious, delicious burgers... I'm happy 🥰

Also there for the second time and it was great. Gluten-free burgers, super tasty. GREAT advice. Thank you very much, we'll be back.

The burgers are definitely delicious and it's great how big the vegan menu is! But you should at least order the regular burger, which I probably got enough of in the menu, but my friend didn't have enough (and that makes it expensive, but okay for treating yourself). What would be great would be more spicy options (two people found the one with three chilies to be rather spicy) and/or a burger with a little more salad/vegetables as a fresh option. But basically a nice shop :)

Great food. The burger called “Mo***cker Extreme” was a bit weak for my friend JP. He didn't have to drink a sip of milk. He finds milk “dishonorable.” A true hero!

Amazing burgers! For sure I will come back!

Great burger and fries, not cheap, but worth it.

Really EVERYTHING extremely good! The greetings from the kitchen (nachos with cheese dip), the burgers, Belgian fries, mac & cheese (!), BBQ sauce - everything is at top US level! Someone here has really thought about the taste and visual concept. Service also great! And that at crowded Christmas market times - respect!

Delicious burger, well mashed. Side dishes etc also good. For 5 stars, that certain something would be missing. Service quick and very friendly.

I simply loved it while visiting Aix we said to ourselves why not try our first restaurant V thank you for the little note 🎟 didn't change anything especially superb place excellent food great cocktails 🍸

Damn good burgers like fries to recommend 💪🏼fair price thank you for the warm welcome

The boys are a great team, everyone is very nice, personable, and they do a good job. Not only are they the best neighbors, but they also have the best burger around... after maybe 50 burgers and many burger salads, I still haven't had enough. Craziness! The burgers with fresh vegetables, special sauces, fresh organic meat and very good fries on the side are almost a new definition of burger. To this day I'm still not 100% comfortable with the excess of pink, but once the burger is there you won't notice anything else anyway. 🥲 Team Smashup, thank you for being here! Your neighbor Faruk - Mundus 💚🤍

The blonde lady who served me was very nice and gave me a good recommendation straight away. The meat was nicely mashed but a bit too dry on the inside for me personally. The portion is reasonable. Price was still ok

Nice location, atmosfeer and tasty food.

Excuse the pun, but it was a smashing burger and service. It might be the best burger that I've ever eaten, and definitely the best smashed one. The portions were big, the service was really good and their house sauce is incredible. If you're craving a burger in Aachen, this is definitely the place to go.

World class in everything! Food A1, rarely eaten such a great burger. The owner is amazing - so authentic and friendly! The store itself is great! Everyone has to go there!

Super tasty food! We were really hungry and made the mistake of ordering both the cheezy extreme and the cac and cheese—not a smart move. Both were delicious, but the sheer amount of cheese left us physically incapable of finishing everything. So, beware when ordering—portions are serious! The wait time for the food to arrive was over 20 minutes, which felt a bit long. It would be helpful if they let customers know the estimated wait time upfront. On the plus side, the free nacho starter was a nice touch—it definitely helped keep the hunger in check while we waited!

Very nice experience, more of a restaurant that stays in your memory. Unusual and modern furnishings. Not monotonous to the eye, there are lots of funny details to catch the eye. Food was good, and lots of it too. Good value for money. A bit of salt was missing from the food for me. Sweet potato fries very tasty. Burger patty not greasy and made from high quality meat. You could also grab the burger easily. And the service was also really warm and kind. Really nice guy. He had a bit of an American look to him because he spoke to us so openly and informally. I can really recommend it 👍

It's just incredibly delicious🤤🔥 This is 100% the best place I've ever been, the tastiest, the service is just great. Clean, warm, and most importantly, very very tasty 🤤🤤🤤

We were there today on February 2nd, 2025 after going to the cinema and feeling very hungry. What can you say, it was a culinary journey into the world of smash burgers, which was my first of this kind. As soon as you walk in you can tell it's going to be a cool number. The facility is great, the staff is extremely friendly. Young but very attentive employees. We were completely happy and will come back. This restaurant is an asset to the Cathedral Quarter and I hope you continue to make people happy with your food.

Burgers and fries were fresh and absolutely delicious. The service is very attentive and extremely friendly. Gladly again.

Super tasty burgers, definitely worth a visit for me as a vegan. I can recommend anything with the vegan cheese sauce. Beforehand there were chips & dips on the house, overall the portions were big enough that I couldn't finish everything. The owner was super friendly and we had a good chat about the concept and the food. We will go there again in the next few days 🤝🏻☺️

I'm usually wary of burgers in Germany. Most burger places here either want to do too much, like put unnecessary spices into the meat, or their patties are dense and taste like gummy (looking at you, Hans im Glück and Peter Pane) or a combination of both. I ordered from this place on Uber eats and was blown away. The burger was phenomenal, with a perfect smashed patty, delicious brioche buns and excellent toppings (I had the "Winter Wonderland")! Not only that though, but the Mac and Cheese were also the best I've had in Germany. Just perfect! The Cole slaw was good, though it could have used a little more salt for my taste, but that's just me. Overall I can't wait to try the restaurant in person one of these days. Makes me glad I've moved to Aachen! I would recommend these burgers to anyone!

It's a shame that Lieferando is no longer offered. I enjoyed ordering there :(

I went to eat alone and was immediately greeted in a friendly manner. The atmosphere is great, something completely different. I was asked if I knew the concept and was immediately informed about everything about the sizes of the burgers, sauces, etc. 💪🏽Burger tastes top notch 💪🏽French fries crispy and hot My Coke Zero had too little carbonation, I complained about that and got a new one straight away 👌😊 Men's toilets are also clean.

Here for work, I chose this place because it have gluten free and vegan options. Everything very good :) good portions

Top burgers, top service, always happy.

Large selection of delicious burgers, side dishes and drinks. Also vegetarian options. Highly recommended

Very tasty burgers The smashed patties are great and tasty The employees are also nice and the owner approaches the matter ambitiously Great load

Burger ok, but for the price I expect a lot more. You have to buy fries separately and you get 10 fries. As we all know, interior design is a matter of taste, but the store is really ugly

One of the best burgers in Aachen. Staff super super friendly. They let my dog sit with us and were super kind with her. Can't wait to come back. Best fries in Aachen!!!

Very good burger - the second visit was also convincing - these are served here as smashed burgers - this means that a fresh minced meat ball (not frozen) from the organic butcher from the Ardennes is pressed very flat on the grill, making it very thin, juicy and full of roasted aromas is - which settles the question of the degree of doneness 😉 (which was criticized by some here - and the price-performance ratio is also explained by the quality delivered) again and again and again and again

A really great restaurant with friendly service, a nice ambience and, above all, really tasty burgers. Really only recommended.

Very good burgers, they have a gluten-free option that is delicious!

Guys, there are gluten free burgers, yay!

Top service! Boldly exciting interior. Enjoy your meal!

A great burger joint, friendly staff, cozy atmosphere. Super awesome burgers, especially the truffle burger and the chillichrese. Unfortunately, I can strongly advise against the burning cheese topping, as this pseudo cheese (deliberately called that because it has nothing to do with cheese other than the color) tastes liquidy and unpleasant when cold and the liquid fuel that comes on it and is lit is sweet and bitter Vanilla tastes good, so the Burgen has a VERY unpleasant taste. As I said, otherwise the store is a hit 🎯👍💪

The burger and sweet potato fries were very tasty. Very clean everything...

We came here based on good reviews. I had never had a smash burger before. But I'm quite surprised! The quality of the meat and the portion size are great! A bit on the more expensive side in my opinion. But definitely recommended. You get nachos with a cheese sauce beforehand, which is a nice addition! I understand that people often rely on drinks. But such a fresh mint tea was very pricey!

Perfect gluten-free burger. The owner was very knowledgeable about celiac disease. There is even gluten-free beer and a lava cake💯. As a celiac disease sufferer you can be lucky to have a restaurant like this in the city. Will come again. Thanks.

Nice new burger shop, the patties are very tasty but very thin. It would be helpful if you said how much meat you get per patty. The crushed bread isn't really my thing, but it's a matter of taste. I thought the onion rings were great. I also liked the beer selection. I have to say I'm not a big eater, but given the quantity I would take 2 patties next time. The coleslaw didn't look appealing but it was tasty. The stairs to the toilet are adventurous and I couldn't get down without using the handles as the steps vary greatly in height. I wonder who took something like that, something like that is very dangerous. The atmosphere is something new with nice ideas.

If you really want a delicious smash burger, you've come to the right place. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting. The service was great, extremely friendly and accommodating. Everything about the burger was perfect from start to finish. The burger bun was fluffy and the meat was well seasoned and extremely tasty. The onion rings were crispy and the fries had crunch. We were more than satisfied. And will definitely come back.

I can only recommend very, very tasty burgers 😋🍔

Restaurant with a very good atmosphere… you feel good The burgers are generous and delicious The service was very pleasant and he even made the effort to speak French An address to add to your favorites!

Burger is not really tasty there are better alternatives Like foodbrothers they get the star for the fries and the cheeseburger cake which was delicious otherwise not really convincing

Outstanding burgers. I've been here several times. I was never disappointed. The burgers are handmade as are the sauces. The burgers are very juicy. I think it's really tasty here. There is also a large selection of vegan burgers and everything is also available gluten-free. I would almost give it 6 stars.

A really cool burger shop. Gluten-free burgers possible 😍🥰 even the fries are prepared in a separate deep fryer. We were pleasantly surprised. Above all, the ambience is really great

Great food and staff. Delicious beer. The ambience is actually a matter of taste. But that doesn't change the outstanding citizens.

The burger was OK, but nothing more. At a price of €19 for the cheapest option, it is far too expensive, unfortunately you are forced to choose a side dish. And then the food isn't even really warm. A typical case of a “hyped” restaurant that is absolutely not worth it. In many pubs you can get much better burgers of the same size for half the price. Not recommended!

I want my money back!! 25€ for a cold citizen (made from 100% German beef), cold fries and spray cheese sauce. Right from the start we were told how proud this shop is of its food quality, but this is absolutely incomprehensible.

You can eat very well here. The staff are very nice and you feel comfortable.

The burgers are very tasty. Good selection, also when it comes to side dishes. Delicious sauces. Nice staff. Gladly again 🤩

Best smash burger I've ever eaten. Perfect for burger lovers. Super nice staff and service. I can only recommend it!

The burgers were very tasty and the service was very friendly. For me, the burger buns could be a little thinner, as there are sometimes places where you only ate bread and sauce.

Restaurant where the owner welcomes you in French if you are French speaking. The pink theme is omnipresent and at least we stay within the proposed theme. The welcome is very correct. The hamburgers taste good for sure, the bread is very good, but I found them much too greasy, too much sauce dripping everywhere, too difficult for me to digest. The price is slightly too expensive, especially since the accompaniments are all extra. A gluten-free option is also offered, which is nice. In short, a unique, well-respected setting, but not for sensitive stomachs.

Amazing !! One of the best burgers I have ever eaten! Warm welcome with a fantastic atmosphere! The DA is incredible. The owner speaks perfect French. Excellent ! I recommend 100%

Delicious burger, but service and service could be more friendly. If only one person leaves, they may keep you waiting by saying it's rush hour.

Positive: -The burgers were tasty and a good size that really fills you up -The furnishings look good and are harmonious -There is nothing to complain about in terms of service Negative: -The price is a bit too high, unfortunately there is no menu option. You pay around €22-24 for a burger, fries and a drink That's a bit too much, especially in direct comparison with other establishments. -The normal fries were quite weak and didn't have a good taste of their own -The music was a bit too loud and it didn't suit our taste and was therefore rather annoying.

It was super tasty there. Almost ran past😄 We then thought we could eat a little something. Pulled pork with fries, only €9 but so filling. Don't miss this.

Amazing! You should just try it. The decoration, the taste, the personnel were all good!

Nice ambience, friendly staff and the burgers are a dream 😍

We were with you this week. Interesting ambience, you have to like pink. Unfortunately, the great burger is not well captured in the light either, see below. The burger is also rightly great, the regular one is not cheap, but the bun and patty combination, the toppings and the sauce, are a dream. In grades: 2+ The Belgian fries were more of a 3+, no longer really warm and no longer crispy, rather hard. It's a shame. You won't find sauces on the menu at the table and there won't be any special offers either. Kind regards, we'll be back again :)

Very tasty burgers, the onion rings were also good. I don't like the pink interior so much, but that's a matter of taste and doesn't distract from the burgers, which are the main thing. We would probably have drunk more if we had been asked if we wanted more. Just as a tip. 😉

It was our first time there and we were really looking forward to some good burgers. The meat was so thin that it completely fell apart and was burned in some places. A lot of sauce was put on it so that you couldn't taste the dry meat. The onions and tomatoes were good, but that's not what you eat a burger for. In addition, the service was quite unfriendly and didn't make you feel welcome. All of this for the price is a disgrace. A little tip: instead of becoming insulting with negative comments, it's better to get some training.

Unfortunately, the food didn't convince me. The burger didn't taste quite as expected, the fries could have been a little crispier and saltier, and the drinks weren't particularly fizzy. I found the price to be quite high for the standard offered.

Super experience. Burgers and side dishes very delicious and very kind staff and owner. The gluten free ban is unbelievable.

My daughter is Celiac and I have a gluten intolerance. We went Smashup Burger only for gluten free hamburger. And wow burger was amazing but the bread was the unbelievable soft and spongy hard to believe it is gluten free. They said they improved their gluten free bread receipt and they nailed it! My daughter enjoyed it so much. It is high recommend it.

I had an amazing experience at Smashup in Aachen! The atmosphere was vibrant and fun with a stylish pink theme that made it feel unique and inviting. I ordered the Beast Burger, Signature Burger, and the Crispy Chicken Burger, and each one was absolutely delicious. The chicken and hamburger were cooked perfectly, with great flavors that really stood out. The pulled pork was a bit too sweet for my taste, but that’s just personal preference. One interesting point: they only accept card payments, which was a relief! In Aachen, many places only accept cash, so it was nice not to worry about that. Overall, it was an outstanding meal, and I highly recommend Smashup for anyone looking for great burgers and a fun dining experience!

It was the tastiest burger 🍔 I've ever eaten in my life. Chefs 👨‍🍳👨‍🍳are professionals in their field. Service at the highest level. The staff 🤵‍♂️🤵‍♀️ and the owner👨‍🦰 of the restaurant are responsive and very friendly people🥰The interior created an atmosphere of comfort and luxury🤩🎀💞. this is an absolutely amazing place😎🤩Thank you for a delicious and unforgettable evening.❤️

Really exceptionally great burger joint. Both the palate and the eye are spoiled here. If you love burgers, this is the place for you.

Very tasty burgers, very good vegan options, nice atmosphere

The burgers taste good but could be a little darker. Fries are good, as is the ambience.

A really cool shop. The service was great and so was the food. But the vibe wasn't really my thing.

The first hamberger which comes out from the sandwich...! It is double.... .

Citizens plentiful but somewhat dry

Delicious burgers and nice service.

Went on a Friday because the store was packed so we had to wait 45 minutes for our food (which is not normal). Employees are incompetent and have no idea what they are doing. Citizens themselves are not particularly impressed. The fries taste delicious. The prices are overpriced. Overall I wouldn't go there again if I was dissatisfied

Full 5 stars more than deserved. The team is absolutely friendly and do their job with passion. The food was more than delicious and the selection was so large that I will definitely come back a few more times. Wall of Heroes, here I come!

Food, ambience and service really top. Definitely coming back!

The burger is very average. The fries taste bad. I’ve had much better burgers for much less.

My first smashup burger! And not my last!!! Heard about this trend through several channels and really wanted to try it out. We were there very early and had the shop to ourselves for a short time. The restaurant area is very stylishly furnished and you can find the logo and the spirit of the store in many details. The waitress was very friendly and was able to answer all of our questions about Smashup. We ordered the Smashup Dirty in regular and small with fries. The burger tasted great. The meat was well seasoned and the melted cheddar in combination with onions, bacon, pickles and the great BBQ sauce was a hit. The fries were decent, but the truffle mayo wasn't my thing. I would have been better off ordering BBQ sauce with it. All in all, a very tasty meal! We'd love to come back!!!

It's truly one of the most delicious burgers I've ever eaten. It's a taste you won't forget. i love you. Be sure to try the signature French fries. It’s paradise!!!

If you like pink, the decoration is just for you. Hamburgers were delicious. The environment has its own order. The service is good, the employees are attentive and friendly.

To start off, this place looks great. Even the toilets had cute details. It's fun to be able to look around while eating. Service is 10/10. If I could give more stars I would. The waiter was very patient (our German was a bit confusing at times) and he even helped us with finding a store we where looking for. Very kind man. The burgers where great. The outside of the burger itself was crispy, yet the burger was still juicy. Their homemade sauce worked well with the sourness of the pickle. Perfect to break down the greasiness of the burger (which wasn't too greasy overall). The fries where alright, a tiny bit too crispy for my liking, but still nice. Overall I would absolutly recommend this place.

I find 5 euros for a fries absolutely outrageous. Not only is it a small fry if you compare it to all the fries in Aachen, but it is also half raw, without salt, simply inedible!!! Thick fries are OK, but not everyone can deep fry!!!! For the price I expect them to taste better than regular fries!!! That really just doesn't work at all!!! Honestly... I'm just wondering if you bought into your great reviews. Not even worth a star

Burgers were very tasty! Tasty sandwich, good sauces and tasty fries. I thought the service was a bit slower, with little attention for new drinks. I think they were busy. Brownie was not tasty... too bad, home made would be much better.

The atmosphere is special. But the burgers are really really good. The tips from the waitress were very good and appropriate. We'll definitely be back.

Special and best burger restaurant in Aachen!!!

Very nice lights, very nice food! Completely recommend

Super tasty burgers, which I found extremely cool that there were also gluten-free buns.
