I’m going there for a stag in July. I’m not especially looking forward to it.

Bang some prossies down the reeper with the lads while smashing back the Astra

I’m going with the missus so that’s not really an option

I’m forking out the best part of £50 to be the sober one on a “beer bike”…

I hear it’s beautiful, at least, quite a few people we met in munich said “you should go to hamburg, it’s beautiful there”

I like it down by the docks where the market is. Otherwise I tend to just go ape on the Reeperbahn and go bar hopping, I’ve been three times but just for gigs rather than prolonged stays.

Oh there’s a good punk looking pizza place just off the Reeperbahn (Pizza Bande) that is great and caters for vegans if that’s how you choose to live your life.

Went to a very good potato-themed restaurant called Kartoffelkellar there . Good veggie options, less so for vegans. But if you like potatoes and cheese, it’s pretty great.

I’m not vegan.
Missus is veggie and I don’t like vegetables. A match made in finding somewhere to eat heaven

a few people I know recently went and said it was a shithole

Where are you staying?

‘Jim’s burritos’ for food (meat & veggie, it’s just a burrito place but it’s good), also that general area (schanze) is good for bars and food but a bit student-y.

or the lange reihe near the station has loads of bars and decent restaurants (italian, brazilian, tapas, that sort of thing), dunno about craft beer though

Galopper des Jahres was my favourite place for drinks. We went in mid January, though, so loads of places that could’ve been lovely to sit outside in summer were absolutely rammed inside.

Ratsherrn brewery was good too, in a really nice building. They do food but I’m pretty sure veggie options won’t extend much further than a giant pretzel.

Miniature world is surprisingly not shit.

Don’t mind me resurrecting this!

I’m going in June with my dad, who will be on the lookout for nice, atmospheric bars and a decent museum or two. Being scousers we’ll probably rinse all the Beatles-y attractions too.

Also… record shops?

Honest to go, Miniature Wonderland.

^yes so much to MW. Best museum by far, so so good - the airport section is amazing.

Other things we enjoyed:

  • viewing platform at the Elbphilharmonie. Free as well.
  • botanical gardens
  • Bucerius Kunst Forum
  • tonnes of bars & a few beer gardens between Sternschanze and Feldstrasse metro stops
  • tunnel underneath the river
  • record shops: Smallville Records was great for us (techno, house, etc) and opposite that was another decent shop with more varied genres and stuff

I am going in little over 2 weeks. Mostly going for the Miniature Train Museum.
