14 October 2025 / Since the beginning of October 2025, Das Lemke at Hackescher Markt has been offering a new menu and new culinary delights! Our kitchen team led by Marcus has lovingly revamped the menu. One thing was clear: the Lemke classics would remain, but they would be joined by exciting new additions – all in the spirit of classic and modern German cuisine. In a central location near Museum Island and Alexanderplatz, we offer Berliners and visitors to the capital authentic cuisine with a twist. And one thing is clear: the dishes are always perfectly paired with our own Lemke beers, which are brewed just a few metres from the restaurant.

LEMKE CLASSICS REMAIN ON THE MENU

Don’t worry: our legendary beer sausages with IPA mustard, crispy beer knuckle, Kassler (smoked pork) roast and the Lemke pork knuckle burger will remain firm fixtures on the menu. Kaiserschmarrn and the popular dessert “Berliner Luft” will also still be available. These classics are simply part of who we are – and part of Berlin.

NEW ON THE MENU: VEGAN BURGERS & MORE

The biggest change: our menu has become even more varied! Here are the new highlights that we are now serving:

• Vegan burger with mango chutney
  In response to popular demand, Das Lemke now offers a vegan burger option. The patty comes with mango chutney, rocket and crispy rustic chips – plant-based, but full of flavour!
• Cheesy Smashed Potatoes
  Crispy, mashed baked potatoes with lots of melted cheese, served with a fresh side salad. A real comfort food that simply makes you happy!
• Tafelspitz (boiled veal)
  Tender, lean meat in a rich broth, served with freshly grated horseradish – a true classic of German cuisine that is particularly popular during the cooler months.
• New salad variations
  Our popular wild herb salad is now available on its own or with various toppings – depending on your taste and dietary preferences, with grilled turkey breast, grilled vegetables (vegan) or halloumi (vegetarian).
• New tarte flambée “Oslo”
  In addition to the well-known Alsace (bacon & onions) and Italy (vegetarian with grilled vegetables) varieties, “Oslo” with smoked salmon, rocket and tomatoes now complements the selection – a fresh, elegant alternative!

PERFECT PAIRING WITH LEMKE BEERS

Of course, we have designed all our new dishes to pair perfectly with our craft beers. Whether light or dark lager, wheat beer, India Pale Ale or wood-aged specialities – the right pairing makes for perfect enjoyment at our restaurant. Our service staff will be happy to advise you on which beer goes best with which dish. It’s a great opportunity to try something new. And if you want to sample the full range, our popular tasting board with six selected beers (0.1 l each) and descriptions is the perfect choice.
