An often overlooked spot where St. Johanner Markt opens out to Mainzer Straße. Their focus is fusion cuisine, and all dishes are vegetarian or vegan (though do double check what they use in their cheeses). We tried the Smashed Cucumber Gyoza Salad, Muhammara with White Beans, and Spicy Gochujang noodles (not pictured). They were generous portions and everything had a lovely balance of flavors. Coupled with the cozy atmosphere and bright décor I felt like I was eating in a friend’s living room. Definitely one of those places you can sit back and relax.

Oh, and we found a mini duck hidden on one of the columns – this is Jim.

Okay, time for the rundown:

What is comfy:

• Friendly staff
• Transparency of ingredients on the menu
• Online reservation system
• Section on the menu listing all allergens and the dishes that include them
• A large variety of vegan and vegetarian friendly choices
• Take-away and sit in
• Bar has an open end 👀

What could be difficult:

• Not wheelchair accessible
• Entrance does not have step-free access, and some seating is built on landings which are only accessed with stairs – so if its busy, this might reduce the number of available, comfortable seats for those with mobility aids
• Unsure how customizable dishes with allergens are, or if you need to avoid those dishes altogether
