This restaurant belongs to the Free University of Berlin which is 100% vegetarian. Best to go between 11am to 1pm when there's a full selection of food. You will need to get a "Mensa card" at the cashier because they don't take cash directly. Cleaning is done with eco-friendly products. NOTE: Please verify if still fully vegetarian. Reported closed December 2023.

Vegan options if you are desperate

Don’t eat this food if you want something tasty, it’s salt laden and unappetizing. Staff is lovely though and they work hard. If you are really hungry this food is only somewhat edible. Depends what you value, there is always at least 1 vegan option.

Typical Cafeteria Food

Since I had some stuff to do at the University, this was the only place I could have a vegan lunch.

The food is certainly your typical cafeteria food, copious and cheap; but not so tasty.

Paying is a bit of a hazzle, as you need to get a Mensa card and charge it (and you can get your money back at the end if you have less than 5€ left in it). You can also pay in cash, but that would cost you some extra fee.

Vegan options are labeled, and there are always vegan main dishes, so it's a safe choice if you're around.

Pros: vegan options, great value

Cons: not all vegan, could be tastier

The best you can get for 2€!

Its always a pleasure to eat at FU mensa no.1. They have quite honest dishes for ridiculous prices sometimes less than 2€! Yesterday I eat there a delicious pumpkin burger with whole grain rice and veggies with apricot jogurt as dessert for 2,5€. Im sure thats not possible in any other place in Berlin! Apart from the food, the atmosphere is one of the best of the mensas ive been. I took some pics and posted in my blog: http://vegberlin.com/2012/10/17/mensa-fu-veggie-no-1/

Pros: price, variety, friendly staff

Cons: far away

Cheap, tasty but a bit out of the way

I visit this place on a regular basis because I am a student of the Free University. It is affordable even for Berlin standards and completely vegetarian.

Pros: Cheap, Healthy

Cons: Far away from center, Uses special money card
