Hawwerkasten

Landgraf-Philipp-Platz 9, 35390 Gießen, Germany

Meat • Lunch • German • hessian


"For lovers of good regional cuisine, the Hawwerkasten is a must. The food is hessian/German, instead of the usual fries, there are salt or roast potatoes or bread, industrial ingredients are up here, everything is fresh. The meat (the hessian cuisine is meat-laden) comes from the Mezgerei next door (one of two butchers in the water that do not belong to a größmetzger chain) and is always fresh so that you can enjoy Tartar without any problems. In the kitchen is a fryer, carvings and stools are roasted and juicy and tender. Fresh and well tapped here more in all variations, other varieties are available from the bottle. The wines offered are also good. The service staff is fast, competent and very friendly. Location: The Hawwerkasten is located on the outskirts of the Gießen city centre in the Neus Schloss/Zeughaus, close to office, country and company, right next to the government office and close to the employment agency. The house is one of the few remaining buildings after the Second World War, in it was already in the 1920s the Hawwerkasten . The interior is rustic with lots of wood, even the chairs and tables are old, but well maintained. In summer there are 10 tables in front of the house on small street 8 where the same dishes are served as in the restaurant. In the park opposite, a beer garden opens in summer, which has only small dishes on the map next to the drinks. The audience is mixed: There are regular guests on the counter who drink their evening beer here, there are regular tables that have been meeting here for many years, there are tourists who have come on recommendation, locals who occasionally come to enjoy a traditional dish like with the mamma and not to forget come often students. Conclusion: A very good, cozy, original place with a rustic, well maintained kitchen without taste."
