The culinary offerings are particularly exciting, with a menu that boasts a variety of options to satisfy any craving. Recently, 'PIER 16' has introduced an array of delicious burgers, including the much-praised Cheeseburger, which customers like Kar li have raved about for its superior taste when compared to the standard mensa burger. Imagine sinking your teeth into a juicy burger, perfectly grilled and bursting with flavor. While it's worth noting that these burgers don't come with fries, the taste alone more than makes up for it.

Seit neustem gibt es hier verschiedenste Burgersorten wie z.B den Cheeseburger. Geschmacklich deutlich besser als der klassische Mensaburger. Leider gibt es keine Pommes dazu.

Gemütlich, lecker, kostengünstig. So möchte es doch jeder Student haben und hier kann er es finden, egal, ob zum Mitnehmen oder dort essen. Vor allem die belegten Käsebrötchen sind ein Traum. Gut finde ich auch, dass das Personal auch zu den Stoßzeiten sehr bemüht ist und in der Regel freundlich bleibt.

Great burgers and a great alternative to the main mensa , if you don't like their daily selection.
