They have a range of burgers to choose from but I'm a fan of the classic cheeseburger. The one time I went during during the week and we were lucky enough to get a table pretty easily. The wait is not to long but you have to keep an ear out as they will just call out your name. The other time I was here it was packed and the wait was way too long. Overall the burgers are the bomb and I'd definitely go back, but definitely during the quieter times.

I was excited to try this place with the Yelpies of Köln, as I hear this is one of the best burgers in Germany! That is a high standard, so I just had to come check it out! The decor is simple but clean, the menu didn 't overload the brain with too many choices (a pro and con at the same time), and the staff was friendly... all good signs so far! However, ultimately it comes down to the food. And in this case, the fat cow just didn 't deliver! -The meat: Although I could tell this was real beef, and no fillers, it was overcooked. Definitely disappointed in this category as I was even asked if medium was okay. However, I did look over at the grill and seems as if they were precooking a bunch of patties for their rush of customers. As a result, I got a dry beef patty. -The toppings: Lettuce, tomato, BBQ sauce, onions, cheese and bacon were my toppings on the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger. Again, I felt like it was lacking.. I needed some raw onions instead of cooked to give it texture, and the lettuce didn 't seem enough. The bacon was crispy and delicious though! BBQ helped the dry beef patty. -The pomme frites: Nothing special.. crispy, but no flavor.. even salting a bit while hot probably would have helped. Also, there was quite a few different pomme sauces listed on the menu, so I was excited to try these out! However, the chili mayo and their special fette kuh sauce both tasted the same.. like plain mayo! -The price: 12€ for a burger, fries, and a drink. Seemed overpriced for what was delivered. I probably won 't be back. But glad I tried the 'best burger in Germany ' Tschuss!
