“When it comes to sausage, it’s all about tradition and taste.”
So is the motto of Konnopke; the popular fast-food cabin nestled under a railway bridge, that’s been doing a roaring trade for over 75 years. A far cry from the staff of spotty youths typical to convenience food outlets back home, here you will encounter an altogether more mature workforce; ruddy-faced, friendly and quite clearly serious about their sausage. This crack team proudly and efficiently serves the seemingly endless but always fast-moving queue. All the usual hot bites are available, including [but by no means limited to] Schnitzel, meatballs and a lovely Currywurst. With every snack under 2.50€, it’s super easy on the pocket too. Cold filled rolls are also on offer for just under 1€ each and “Happy Hour” every day from 5pm sees all Brötchen slashed to just 0.60€.
Konnopke’s is the perfect stop to grab something on the run, though people-watching from out front is worthwhile if you’ve nowhere in particular to be. While there is some bench seating (complete with cushions and gazebo, no less), the standing-room-only tables directly in front of the serving area are a more interesting choice as you never know quite with whom you’ll end up chatting. If, however, holding a polite conversation with a mouthful of Wiener proves a bit too much of a challenge, amuse yourself with the bona fide art that graces the columns nearby. With the food consistently tasty and the value for money always excellent, there’s little doubt that Konnopke’s will still be satisfying the masses another 75 years from now.
Konnopke’s Imbiss is open Monday to Friday, from 6am to 8pm and Saturdays from 12 until 7pm.
