Föllerei

Small restaurant with delicious food - very fine - in a relaxed neighborhood, small street. Had both outdoor and indoor seating. Staff was quite dry and had a very noisy dog. Only possible to pay with cash

This is a gem in the streets of Neukölln. Wonderful kitchen, modern twist to German ingredients, wonderfully salty, savoury enough, just perfect. Lovely staff, good wine. We will come back ❤️

Genuinely nice place. Celebrated my birthday here about a month ago and we had two kids, one not yet three, and they were beyond accommodating. I haven't actually been to any other restaurant in Germany where the child friendliness was in any way equal. The food was excellent too—and the fact this seems like an aside is absolutely bonkers!! European with a twist as someone else put it is a good description; it's elegant and knowledgeable cookery of often simple dishes that makes for delicious results. The flavour palettes they manage to tease out of traditional dishes without it becoming too cheffy is such a joy. The only thing that could be improved upon was that our food took extremely long for some reason. But there seems to have been a miscommunication with the kitchen, so I'm pretty sure this isn't an actual flaw. Overall, I'd go back any time for lunch or dinner. Definite recommendation.

Terrible service, 1 hour wait for 4 sausages - supposedly a bratwurst and a schnitzel. Massively overpriced and few options on menu. Rude and slow waitress who did not seem to respond to requests. Empty restaurant. Not worth going to!

Super friendly staff, good food, cosy atmosphere... We will definitely come back!

Small, cosy, local place with good food. Portions could have been larger and we found it to be a bit too expensive (however they use locally sourced high quality ingredients). Friendly staff. Would not go back, though.

Good little German restaurant with tasty plates. Service was very nice

We found this place by looking for restaurants with organic meat, and were really pleased we found it. Great food and wine for unbelievably good value. Very friendly and accommodating, just a lovely experience all round. The staff couldn't have been nicer to us and our young child, and our dishes were excellent. Great wine recommendations too. We got the fixed-price menu: three courses and a drink for €38. That is really incredible value and I would happily have paid twice that. Be prepared to wait a bit longer for the food, it's worth it though. I would definitely go again next time I'm in Berlin.

Overall really very good: German classics such as Bratwurst or Schweineschnitzel with Rotkohl or Sauerkraut. Winter comfort food! Friendly service by a funny Italian and price wise perfectly OK for the quality and portion size. Only small quibble on this particularly cold winter evening is that it could have been a bit warmer, but we were amongst the first arrivals and it probably warmed up later. Will be back!

Nice place! The Panna Cotta with raspberry sauce and rosemary crumble is delicious...you should make your way out here just to try that.

Oh, us silly Americans! After a long day of touristing all around Berlin we hit the 5PM mark and were completely famished. We had already sought Follerei out based on research and proximity to our apartment and walked up to grab a table. Naturally, they did not open until roughly 7PM. Who eats that early?! We grabbed snacks and beers to take home and went back to the restaurant around 9PM, a more respectable dining time. It's a cute little restaurant. Ya know, small, about the size of something I would want if I ever owned a restaurant. Intimate enough to really get to know the staff providing service and food. The menu was not in English and, knowing very little German, the owner saw our struggle and went through each and every item on the menu. That's amazing for someone to do and we were extremely appreciative of it. I ordered the salmon with lentils and potatoes. I cannot tell you the name of it on the menu but, if you dine here, ask the owner for it and you will not be disappointed. It was plentiful, cooked perfectly (crisp on the outside but super soft on the inside, if that makes any sense), and the perfect alternative to all the meat I had been eating that entire week. We never felt as if we were being rushed through our meal, either. Coming from a big city, I feel everyone is always in a hurry, but I never felt that way here or in Berlin. It's a little pricey compared to all of the quick restaurants in the area, but we were on vacation and did not mind. Plus, the food was so good it was completely worth the visit. If you find yourself in Neukolln, find yourself here... but at a respectable hour, of course!

Very nice German dishes, organic meat. Service ok. With a smile on their face I would have felt more welcome. Few vegan options. Go for the lamb and the Bratwurst.

Lovely casual fine dining for German fare. My friend, a local, brought me here on the premise of "German food, but kind of fusion" which still required a bit of a leap of faith, but I was pleasantly impressed! Typical German restaurants come with heavy dishes of meat and potatoes, and while there were meat and potatoes on the menu (I had the wiener schnitzel after all) there was a much higher level of care and preparation. I would definitely come back!

Came here for the bio (organic) dishes. Tried both the vegan and meat entrées and loved them equally. Very healthy and yummy.

Good service, nice place, but the food is simply overpriced. When I pay 6.50 euro for a salad in Berlin, I dont expect it to be a starter, I expect to have filling ingredients inside, a variety of lettuce and a good dressing. Served with bread, it needs to fill me up in a healthy way. Main courses around 10 euro are too expensive, they are neither large portions nor particularly tasty. Its not a restaurant , more of a bistro that is trying to be what it is not. New chef, new menu, new prices and we would be there once a week.

Is it German or is it French? Went looking for a French place recommended and Yelp sent us here. They consider it a German restaurant, but is a lot more than Brats and schnitzel. I had the fish of the day, Dorado crisp on risotto with peas. Excellent. My husband had lamb chops with carrots and polenta. Mine was better. And definitely prepared with the French touch of farm fresh products. The dessert was great, pancotta and rhubarb sorbet. Yum. With house white wine the bill for 2 about €70. Cash only.

Favorite restaraunt in Berlin. The decor is minimalist and attractive, and the weiss beer they serve is the best I've had yet. My food was great. I had a bratwurst and risotto, both of which were unpretentious, but fresh and delicious. Our waitress was professional but personable; she was kind enough to go over the German menu with us (a bunch of ignorant Americans), and when one of us had to duck out early to nurse a persistent head cold, she took the time to go grab ibuprofen from the back. The prices are a little higher than what you'll pay for a schwarma down the street, but completely appropriate for a good meal in Berlin. Just a great place.

I just returned from a marvelous supper at the Föllerei. Nord-Neukölln is probably my favorite area of Berlin (particularly for restaurants and bars), and Föllerei just assumed a position at the top of the list. It's a snowy night, and many Berliners stayed in. I walked in with two friends around 8pm and we were the only people inside. Even the two women who run the place were in back, but as soon as we walked in the door, they rushed out to greet us eagerly, with a warm "Kommt doch rein!" It just got better from there. A cozy, inviting interior; rotating installations from local artists; a house beer made locally especially for the restaurant; and an entirely organic menu with dishes that taste like homemade gourmet rather than restaurant food made for one of the best dining out experiences I've had in recent memory. For what they have to offer, Föllerei is very inexpensive: 30 Euro for three meals, two of which included drinks (which are also organic). The hostesses, atmosphere, and delectable food--whole pea soup with fried potatoes, mushroom risotto with green beans, organic bratwurst with sauteed greens and roasted potatoes, followed by a delicious chocolate cake--make Föllerei one of my new favorite places in Berlin. I can't wait to come back, and I only wished I lived in Berlin so I could come here on a regular basis!
