HappenPappen

HappenPappen has really some of the nicest staff I've ever met! And the cafe itself is so beautiful , with two smaller rooms tucked in the back, which is nice.

The menu consists of club sandwiches, daily hot dishes , quiche and salad, and more cakes than you can choose from, always freshly baked.

I came on the weekend and was kicking myself because I ordered a sandwich off the menu on the table and then saw the daily specials menu on the wall after! The lasagne others had looked amazing. My tempeh sandwich was okay - very bit but just with generic toasted bread, and no garnish. I also got a coffee (good) and the avocado cake. The cake was good but very much tastes of avocado, while not all vegan avocado cake does. Bear that in mind if you order it. The chocolate mousse cake looked astounding, as did their loaf cakes.

During the week they have burger days.

I would definitely come back, and next time would order the hot 'bowl' food - and is only 20 mins from Hbhf using the U2 train and a quick 9 min walk. You can also walk from Hbhf - it takes 1 hour 20 mins.

Bonus - liberty eis (vegan ice cream) is next door

Das Happenpappen ist einfach eins meiner liebsten Restaurants ! Alles immer super lecker & frisch.

Very good restaurant with burgers and salads. Sometimes pretty crowded and noisy.

Super leckeres Essen, nette unkomplizierte Atmosphäre. Leckerer Matcha Latte.

Loved it! Beautiful little place, friendly staff and AMAZING food!

Great homemade burgers. I've been there several times and I was always satisfied. They have different combinations with different sauces and the menu changes regularly.

They really are the best burgers. I've been there twice now and each time I did enjoy dinner a lot. Their sauces are just great. The burger bowl is very recommendable. And there are lots of wonderful cakes for dessert!

A lovely neighbourhood restaurant which is very popular. Small menu of burgers and salads but everything we had was delicious and well presented. Very filling so we didn't have time for dessert sadly; the desserts looked delicious. Very friendly staff too.

✴️ Hamburg ✴️ Happen Pappen
I don't often rant and rave about delicious food but this place brings out the best in vegan dishes. You can taste the love that goes into the food. The menu changes every day so it's always a nice surprise if you are keen on versatility. The location is cosy with two back rooms to accommodate guests. The only down side is, if you are late for lunch you will not find a place to sit. Unfortunately they do not take reservations so it's best to come once they open for lunch at 12:00. They server a huge selection of home cakes too - displayed nicely for you to see. It's not easy to leave space for cake as they serve good size lunch portions. I finished off with a superb Avocado cake.

This is a great spot - a good range of daily options. Carefully prepared foods. A good range of cakes and puddings. Lovely old building but also chic yet low key. Super friendly staff.

I was in Hamburg only for two days and I went here twice and would have gone back if I would have stayed longer :) I can not think of anything bad to say about this place. I love the open kitchen, the staff is very friendly and the food is amazing! It really tastes home made and it feels comforting which is very nice when you have been traveling for a while.

I like absolutely everything about this place: the food (sandwiches, pancakes, burgers,..), the sweets (cakes, breads,..) and the lemonades in the summer, the people who work there and the atmosphere.

Very good food with very nice people working there. This is what veganism is all about. Had the tempeh sandwich which was amazing and don't forget to grab a piece of cheesecake. :)

i visited this small vegan cafe during lunch break and it was the right stuff for me to refresh my fuel cells for the next half of my bicycle tour :-) I had a quiche with salad, homemade orange+tonka lemonade and finally two carrot cake slices for tea time later on. I was sitting outside and the site filled up during dinner time. The prices were moderate, for me it was about 14€. I think i will come back again this time with my better half ;-)

Though it's not located in the city centre, this restaurant is always worth visiting. Focusses on healthy ingredients and is thus not exactly the cheapest place around, but, as you get what you pay for, this is rather a pro than a con. The menu mostly depends on the day of your visit: With quiches, soups and salads constantly on offer, the lunch changes daily. Also, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are considered burger days. On weekends, breakfast and/or brunch is offered.
Important sidenote: At least 1 (one) dish is always gluten-free.

drei Räume stehen zur Verfügung, alle einfach aber gemütlich eingerichtet

HappenPappen offers sometimes brunch, e.g. at Pentecost 2015 (Sunday and Monday; 2 shifts: 10:30 - 12:00 & 12:30 - 14:00).

We ordered a table for four; neccessary as the location was sold-out.

We were surprised by the the wide variety of offers, e.g. soup, pancakes, rolls, marmelade, salats, vegan "scrambled eggs", cake,... Impossible to try everything. Coffee and orange juice included.

Good price, but much more important: Very delicious!!

Nice, comfy atmosphere, lovely staff, yummy and affordable food. The big downer,though, is that for some meals (e.g. quiche) they use a microwave oven! They are aware of the issue with microwaves but say they have no other option due to space limitations. We encouraged them to do some research into healthier ways to warm food. We'll be going back but will make sure to avoid anything from the microwave oven...
