Ba um does not always open at 11.30, I would advise arriving well after midday to be sure of it being open and offering anything other than drinks. But depending on the chef you maybe lucky with an earlier start! I was however invited in out of the glaring sun and sat reading my book and using the wifi until they were ready to serve me. English is spoken pretty well by most of the staff as it is in most places in Hamburg and indeed Germany, but always double check what you have ordered or indeed that your order was taken or you might wait for some time as I did before realising that it hadn't,t been!! Ba um,s menu is rather limited and at the moment they are not making pizza,s in the evening, just burgers. The food is all,fresh and homemade and I get the impression you could probably preorder pizzas if so desired. the chocolate cake is very good and succulent though not GF or SF. I had a good broccoli soup, that turned out to be potato and broccoli soup in a large and interesting if a little noisy bowl, an earl grey tea a piece of cake and friendly chat for all under 10 euros. I hope Ba um gets busier and has a wider range of food for the next time I,m in Hamburg. It,s good to see little independanr vegan cafes starting up and not just corporate ones. Ba um will restart doing Pizza,s when they can find the right sized pizza oven for their little kitchen! the sooner the better!
