DAMPFE - das Borbecker Brauhaus - Essen

Oh, what a terrible disappointment. I heard soooo a lot about this place when a friend of mine invited a group of us to try out their All You Can Eat...

Dampfe was recommended by friends and did not disappoint. The food selections were marvelously German. Beer was good (although the unfiltered brew I ordered was not as good as others I've had). We were welcomed and treated well although there is not much English spoken. My haxe was wonderful. Very Bavarian. Tender inside and crunchy exterior. Just like in the south. The price ( €16,50) was too high in my mind. Much less in other places. Those that ordered schnitzel (also priced too high) had average meals that were not up to what was expected. So order the Haxe but know it is a bit overpriced.

We are too hospitable in the city and had no idea where we are supposed to be starving. tripadvisor has proposed the steam as near and we are spontaneously turned in and were surprised!We sat in the beer garden, which gradually filled very well. the service was courteous, friendly and attentive to high level! it's a beer garden, so don't expect any diffractions, but even if it's going to be grounded: super job.Atmosphere and feeling immediately addressed me. all humorous and loose in the farm of the brewery.The menu and also the ordered food was excellent, seasonal, good-bourgeois and also the one or other tasty where you say "Look, that's good..." .It may be a bit of pork hard, but in any case also beefies and vegetarian find something delicious here. prices for main dishes are between 9 and 25 euro. most of them around the 12-13, but the portions are decent.The in-house beer (helles/pils) has tasted quite good to me, and that is what I want to say, because I do not drink a pils);per coincidence discovered, and if I am back in town I come a hundred per again! warmest recommended!

Excellent traditional German fayre with fantastic beers. Great atmosphere, I'd recommend booking a table as it can get busy. This is a popular place and has a brilliant atmosphere. The staff know their beers and are able to recommend something suited to your taste. Great night!

The steam is cult! For now three decades we have been controlling it irregularly. beer, eat and service are very good. Of course I like to wait when the steam is full. I know that before, and I'll put myself in it, now is summer. recently we celebrated a high time there, because it is very horny in the steam.
