Where to eat in Göttingen

  1. Eat

    Cafe Botanik

    This Persian cafe has huge bowls of spiced tea and delicious yogurt dips. The breakfasts are traditional German, not Persian.

  2. Eat

    Cron & Lanz

    The place for delicious Kaffee & Kuchen (coffee & cake) and people-watching from window tables on the second floor. Finest cafe in town, but the service is very reserved, and can thus feel a bit unfriendly.

  3. Eat

    Kebab King

    Ask anyone in Göttingen and they will recommend their personal favourite of the many Döner kebab shops in the city. Perfect after meeting the Gänseliesel and visiting the Johannis church is this kebab shop, which is an insider among students.

  4. Eat

    Nudelhaus

    Although the sign might lead you to think it is Asian, the noodle dishes here are more Italian-inspired; head past the spaghetti straight to the house-made wide noodles in fresh, inventive vegetarian, meat- and fish-based sauces. The Biergarten is wonderful in the summer.

  5. Eat

    P-Cafe

    At St Nikolai churchyard, nice little cafe-bar, wonderful place outside in summer. Good breakfast, delicious baguettes.

  6. Eat

    Trattoria Salvatore

    Delicious pizza and wine. Prices are slightly higher. The chef that gave this place its name is no longer working here, but it remains a popular restaurant.
