The Box in Bamberg

I've often bought a box for lunch and have always been impressed. Despite the sauce and lots of topping, the fries stay crispy for a very long time. In terms of taste, it's always a great thing! See you soon :)

I ordered two boxes for 19 to take home with me, I live less than 2 km from Kapuzinerstrasse. During the journey, this box got soaked, the sauce spilled onto the pants and messed up the jeans. Less than 5 minutes later we ate. The taste is absolutely great, chicken or pulled pork are absolutely recommended. What I didn't like at all was that the cardboard base dissolved and the scraps looked like kebab meat and mixed into the food. Something like that doesn't work for 19,- It's definitely a great location for students, it's definitely delicious on site, but as a Togo I don't have to have something like that again

Chip boxes are really a great idea. There are enough variations for everyone and they are really tasty.

The Irish Men is highly recommended. Fries very fresh and nothing was soggy. Staff also very friendly.

I study around the corner, so I love coming here to eat when I have a break. The store was recommended to me by my fellow students. Nice staff, the dishes are prepared very quickly and the sauces are always delicious. in "helena" guacamole is great :) gladly again :)

When the beloved Ron Telesky's Canadian Pizza permanently closed in Berlin, I was distraught... What's a misplaced auslander in search of Canadian comfort food to do? .... Take that 49 euro ticket and get on 5 regional Bahn trains in 7.5 hours later and you will arrive at The Box, a poutine extravaganza in a box! 'Better than any Poutine you can get in Eastern Canada' says Mike, the owner ( okay that's probably not his real name, but there's a 80% probably it could be cuz what Canadian dude isn't called Mike 🤷🏻‍♀️) ... Anyway the Poutine was fantastic and worth all the train rides and random friends made along the way ...AND! depending on which part of Canada you say you are from, Mike will add or subtract 15% from your bill! Choose wisely dear ones 🍟🇨🇦

Pommes leider zu lange frittiert und der Rest als unappetitlicher Mehrsaucenbrei darüber. Sorry, aber Qualität geht anders.

Unknowingly, we entered five minutes before opening and were sent outside in a rather unfriendly manner. The front door was open and it didn't say not to enter. When it opened a few minutes later, there was only an annoyed "yes?" The unfriendly service and bad vibes kind of ruined it for us...

You can't eat here, just take away, but there are nice park benches opposite and the food tastes really delicious

Mega hot guy and ultra delicious food 😍 Mega good for vegetarians and vegans ❤️

Delicious box of crispy fries and toppings! Plenty of different toppings to choose from. Vegetarian food is also available. Absolutely worth visiting!

Food very greasy and soggy. Unfortunately, I felt sick halfway through. Service OK. Very run down from the outside.

Wirkliche leckere Fritten (in meinem Fall mit Bratensauce und Käse), dazu eine Megaportion feines Pulled Pork. Zweite Version: Pommes mit scharfer Mayonnaise, auch hervorragend. Die "kleinen" Portionen sind schon echt groß. Man bestellt am Fenster... ich habe dabei eine Art "good cop, bad cop" - Vibes verspürt. Ein eher mindergut gelaunter englischsprachiger Mann und eine ausgesprochen freundliche Frau... Vielleicht hatte der Mann einfach nur einen schlechten Tag, oder es lag daran, dass wir kurz vor der Mittagspause da waren. Alles in allem: Hingehen, wer lecker und günstig essen will!

Everything was great, great dear owner & the employees are always very nice. Food is a solid 12/10

Definitely original and for us the best fries variations in town. To-go, no seating inside, but you can always find a place in the city to eat the delicious fries.

Taste wise m.m.n. OK, but nothing more, and quite expensive for the portion. Even though we ate there, the box was a little soggy. Especially if you don't "open" it to your plate, it's difficult to eat standing up.

The portion is large, but moderately tasty. Friendly service, and the ability to pay by card is a plus

Heard about this place a little while back and thought we‘d give it a try. Husband had ‚the meat eater‘, I had ‚the helen‘. My husband asked for nothing but meat, fries and sauce (the meatatarian…) and the serving was good but about 3/4 of what mine was, meaning that the portion wasn’t made up for by what he asked them to not put on. Flavors are great, although the pulled pork could have a bit more ‚pow‘ from a good bbq sauce, not crazy, but a tad bit more wouldn’t hurt! The eco friendly packaging is appreciated and even after sitting for a couple hours didn’t totally disintegrate. Unfortunately no in- or outdoor seating, except for one table three feet over by another place and it was dirty so we decided to eat in our car. Bit of a bummer but oh well. We might be back, ey!

Very nice staff and good vegetarian options!

I went there for the first time years ago when it first opened. Since then, I had decided that if I ever found myself in Bamberg again, I would have to go there again! We shared a Meateater Box - super tasty and filled both of us up quite a bit. Value for money is pretty good. Maybe not the best snack on a hot day, but it's worth stopping by. If there is space, you can sit with your box by the water. Not entirely possible in bad weather, so it might be nice if you could sit inside. Otherwise great there, worth a visit!

Really quick and convienient while still being filling and tasty ! The people operating the shop were also super nice. I recommend

Perfect on so many levels. (Location, price, staff, fast, delicious, the fast food that Bamberg lacks, young people) The Box is a take-away food shop with fantastic fries dishes (whether meaty, veggy or vegan) The prices are very good! The packaging is well thought out, aesthetic and practical! And the food is great!

Really tasty, good price and large portion. 3 vege/vegan versions. Interesting compositions - all ingredients can also be added or removed individually - depending on your taste. Stroke!

Everything just fits and the operators are super cool and friendly!

I base my rating on the constantly changing, 0 reliable opening times. After standing in front of a closed shop for the umpteenth time today, even though Google said it was supposed to be open, it was my last attempt to get something here. It's a shame, when it was open the food was good.

Really tasty and something different. Also a cool thing to do with kids. Then everyone can poke around in the box a little. Service has always been very friendly and if you need 4 forks for a box you can get them easily. Unfortunately, we haven't dared to try the original with poutine yet. But let's catch up.

Love this place! The owner of The box is really nice and the food is tasty as hell! especially the poutine. The Place is to-go only because the owners don't want to give their customers "The fry smell", so this is definitely no restaurant to stay at. 5 Stars

Delicious fries variations. The one with Canadian-style gravy in particular tasted delicious. They call it poutine. Otherwise it's really cool to get a beer there and enjoy the vibes in the busy street ;)

We discovered The Box by chance while visiting Bamberg and I remembered the food so much that I definitely wanted to come back. I have no idea what makes it so delicious, but I really like it there. Super nice and authentic owner and the food is simply great!

I like to come more often when I'm out of town and when the weather is nice - because this is not a restaurant where you sit in or order something for delivery. I'm really happy to have this chip shop in Bamberg. Really a great snack, I think they make it and it really fills me up, the portions are really good. I love the selection. The first place is clearly The Irish Men (if possible I would like a little more than just 1 cucumber or alternatively chop the cucumber so that it can be spread out a bit when eating), and in second place is the vegan version. Unfortunately, pulled pork didn't convince me, but it's just a matter of taste. The fries here are of good quality, well seasoned, served fresh and warm. Which would be really cool, maybe. a stamp card, e.g. to get a discount after 5-10 visits. 🤭 But even without a stamp card, I'm happy to come more often.

There is mutch food and its very tasty, which is also a reason for the long lines! The owner is a great guy and im happy that the place has reopend again!

The fries were in the fryer for so long that you couldn't pierce them with a fork. In terms of taste, it's not a highlight, it's fairly low in salt. Only the toppings chosen were really good in their combination! The currywurst we ordered without onions had onions on top in the first attempt, but at our request one was made without them; he had simply forgotten. Happened. However, the pieces of sausage were huge. Conclusion: Really expensive fries... We probably had the wrong idea.

Actually, I don't like leaving this bad review. So far I've always been happy and everything worked out. Unfortunately not at all today (04/02/24/7:30 p.m.)! It all started when I had to wait over 15 minutes for my order to be taken. Although there were only two people in front of me, both of whom only ordered one portion. It would have been okay if the employee's audacity hadn't been added. I do wonder why it takes so long to prepare two portions of fries with side dishes. You can look into the kitchen relatively openly, and she mostly just stood there and looked at the wall. Well... it only got “BETTER” when she took my order. After I ordered normally and politely, but asked that the gravy be left out, the brown-haired employee grimaced so much that I internally asked myself what was going on. She then replied to me in a very rude manner, asking why I didn't just order the other dish, which already lacked the sauce. Apart from a “sorry, I thought I could just leave out the sauce, I didn’t know,” not much came from me. But I had to wait a long time for understanding or a hint of politeness. There was none of that, but there was a neat grimace that literally expressed how stupid I was and the words that I should read the card cleverly. Of course everything was in such a mushy tone that I revised my order and simply left. You really don't have to behave in such an unfriendly and extremely snotty manner. I have no idea what went over this lady's mind that day, but you should be a little more professional when dealing with customers!! You have finally lost me as a customer, and I sincerely hope that the “NICE” lady will look for a new job.

Best sweet potato fries I've eaten, + the guy is so chill

Normally we love coming, but today the service was extremely rude. In addition, the cucumber was missing from the Irish Man and there was far too much pepper and relatively little in the box, EVEN THOUGH the prices were raised twice within a year to €8.

Absolutely declious, to the point that we went back for more right away. The concept is just loaded fries but done perfectly. The ratio of fries to sauce/toppings is superb. You are never in fear of running out of sauce. We had the meateater with poutine and the vegetarian with Sriracha mayo, both were great. The packaging design is also cute, perfect for sharing. Great fast food concept. Great drunk food. Little take out place with just a service window and no seating.

Ok Guys the three boys from today here Poutine and cheese were perfekt like always but the fries could be a little bit more crunchy just like before the reopening

So while the box is still temporarily closed, I'll take the time to leave a review here. I've never missed a restaurant so much! I can't wait until your fries are ready to pick up again.

Only snack, but ONLY fantastic!!! Open again!!!

Please reopen. We are all addicts!!!!

Prices are still really fair, never raised to such an extent that you would miss it. Super tasty and the service was really friendly, opening times leave little to be desired (Sunday ♥️), we would love to come back!

Es gibt reichlich vegetarische Optionen. Perfekt für Fleischliebhaber und Vegetarier gleichermaßen.

Sehr sehr leckere Pommes. Mit die besten die ich jemals gegessen habe :)

Gehe ich immer wieder gerne hin für was deftiges. Super lecker:)

Great as always - super friendly, very quick, and most importantly, the Veggie Box was absolutely delicious ^^

Superleckere Pommes…große Portionen 😋

Essen kommt schnell, schmeckt mega gut und die Portionen sind auch echt groß also man wird definitiv satt

sehr sehr gutes Essen aber als Tipp vielleicht Karten Zahlung einführen weil man nicht mit Karte Zahlen kann

Leider doch relativ viel Müll für "nur eine Pommes"! Geschmacklich gut, aber nicht überragend. Pommes sehr kross, wenig Salz. Sauce relativ fad. Preislich okay. Insgesamt würde ich vermutlich kein zweites Mal vorbeikommen.

Immer wieder spitze sich ab und zu bei The Box zu holen, absoluter Stammladen. Bin persönlich ein großer Fan von der Pulled Pork Box mit der Bratensoße. 10/10 (Natürlich darf man den Schweinkram nicht vergessen ;D)

Ich glaube, Ich habe noch nie in meinem Leben bessere Pommes gegessen. Und dann auch noch als Poutine bzw als loaded fries... einfach traumhaft. Die Pommes waren frisch zubereitet, außen perfekt knusprig, innen noch schön weich, die Bratensauce war lecker, der Käse genauso(Cheddar, Feta, Curds, habe "The Argentinian" probiert) und das pulled pork war ebenfalls super. Dieses Fastfood-Restaurant versteht die Kartoffel wie kein anderes!

Super leckeres Essen, zu einem fairen Preis. Immer wieder gerne.

Absolut nices To-Go Essen. Super knusprige Pommes mit dem Topping deiner Wahl. Pommes mit Pulledpork Coleslaw und Saucen in einer nachhaltigen Pappbox -> ist einfach der Hammer. Gibt aber auch viele andere Kombinationen. Der Inhaber ist auch super chillig und hat einfach Spaß an seinem Job. Definitiv ein Besuch wert, wenn man in Bamberg ist/isst.

Tolles Essen, preislich mehr als in Ordnung, uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen!

Haben heute das erste mal etwas probiert & es war so lecker. Frisch zubereitet . Wir probieren definitiv noch mehr 😍

Besten pommes die ich je gegessen habe

Ein echter „Instagram-Geheimtipp“ für Bamberg. Auch wenn der Laden eher unauffällig ist und keine Sitzplätze hat, eine echte Empfehlung. Das Essen schmeckt super und wird einem frisch in die Box gelegt Es gibt Pommesvariationen (wie wir sie nicht kannten), aber super lecker und gut gewürzt (auch vegan möglich) Preis-Leistung super und sättigt gut

Alles perfekt. Besten Pommes in Bamberg <3

Als ich den ersten Bissen nahm, hab ich mich gefühlt wie als wäre ich im Himmel angekommen, das sind die besten loaded fries die ich je gegessen habe! Könnte ich zum Frühstück, Mittag und Abend essen!! (wenn das nicht so eine Kalorienbombe wäre😭) Besuch lohnt sich, vor allem auch wenn’s schnell gehen soll!😁

Fries taste like they were fried two or three times. Wouldn't recommend it.

Das Essen ist sehr lecker. Allerdings ist mir aufgefallen, dass die Portionen wenn der Chef nicht vor Ort ist, deutlich kleiner ausfallen.

Meine Freundin und ich waren dort vor kurzem essen und ich muss es sagen ich war hin und Weg. Der Laden sieht super aus und ist ein Hingucker, das Essen kam in einer super praktischen Transport Box die man perfekt zu einem Teller aufklappen konnte und es war auch noch super lecker. Jeder der in Bamberg ist sollte hier vorbei schauen, ein absoluter Geheimtipp.

The Box ist wie Dope für Fast-Food-Junkies: total ungesund und unvernünftig, aber eben auch verlockend und unwiderstehlich. Street-Food mit Wohlfühlfaktor.

Fries before guys! Super Laden, gute Pommes.

Ein System, dem man in Deutschland sicher nicht so schnell wieder begegnet. Aber unglaublich lecker! Vielfalt in rauen Mengen. Sehr coole Idee! Besonders wie die Box an dich weiter gereicht/geschoben wird.

Sehr leckere Poutines, netter Inhaber. Für den Preis bekommt man sehr sehr große Portionen. Die Poutine hat mir deutlich besser geschmeckt, als bei anderen vergleichbaren Restaurants in Deutschland!

Die wahrscheinlich besten Pommes ever. Kross af und RICHTIG lecker. Gönnt euch.

Sehr geil! Beste Pommes, hammer toppings. Schade dass ihr zu machen müsst...

Richtig chilliger Laden mit sehr leckeren food. Als Veganer bin ich von der Vegan Box sehr überzeugt :) Auch das freundliche Personal ist sehr zu loben, macht weiter so!

Die Mitarbeiter sind super nett und die Pommes sind einfach klasse. Für einen guten Preis bekommt man echt gute Speisen. Mir persönlich schmeckt es dort sehr gut und ich würde es weiter empfehlen

Not the healthiest place to eat but man was it good. I had the Random guy which was a little spicy with the slaw but was very good and healthier option on the menu, was with sweet potato fries. I had the argentenian which was very rich filling and tasted amazing, fries pork and gravy. Currywurst was great as well very happy with everything.

Das Essen hat leider seit dem letzten Jahr stark nachgelassen. Fettige Pommes, trockene Currywurst. Schade.

Best fries I have had in a long time. A place, where fries are actually the main dish. No problem with this place.

Sehr geiles, einfaches Essen. Eine prima Grundlage um danach die Bierkultur Bambergs auszukosten. Zur Box ein Mönchsambacher Lager. 👌

Wir gehen sehr gerne zu the box. Die Pommes gibt es in verschiedenen Variationen und sind sehr zu empfehlen. Die Portionen sind sehr groß und im Verhältnis wirklich günstig. Der Besitzer ist super symphatisch und das Personal auch. Ein kleiner Geheimtipp in Bamberg mit mal etwas anderem fast food als immer nur chinesisch Pizza und döner. Weiterzuempfehlen.

Leider etwas unscheinbar, wir sind zufällig dran vorbei gelaufen und haben uns gleich eine der leckeren Pommesboxen geholt. Für 5,50 Euro wurden wir zu zweit davon satt als Mittagessen. Das Personal ist außerdem super nett.

Beste Poutine (Pommes mit Topings) in der Stadt. Ben der Besitzer ist super freundlich und es schmeckt hervorragend! Umbedingt ausprobieren!!!
