Scheers Schnitzel
Located directly under the S-Bahn arch at Warschauer Platz in Friedrichshain, Scheers Schnitzel has been serving crispy home-style food since 2010 at prices that even Berliners find surprising. If you want to have an inexpensive lunch without sacrificing quality, this is the place to be.
Affordable Lunch under the S-Bahn Arch
Scheers Schnitzel is located directly under Warschauer Straße, far from the restaurant glamour of the city center. Nevertheless, many consider the schnitzel here to be one of the best in the city.
The meat comes from Teterow and is produced according to Biopark guidelines. The classic SchniPoSa comes with green salad, carrot, and orange-mustard vinaigrette. If you don’t want schnitzel, you can choose crispy chicken or vegetable patties, also available as a take-away sandwich.
The combo menu SchniPoSa, which is schnitzel, fries, and salad, costs only 11 Euros.
In addition, there are fresh steakhouse fries and six homemade sauces: Curry, Andalusian, Chili, Aioli, and Barbecue.
Scheers Schnitzel: Berliner Attitude without Frills
Guests regularly praise the generous portions and the crispy, juicy bite of the schnitzel.
The schnitzels are freshly prepared, with a clear focus on quick service.
Important to know: Scheers accepts cash only. So it’s best to stop by an ATM beforehand.
The menu also features vegetarian alternatives such as seitan, ensuring that non-meat eaters are well catered for.
The proximity to the East Side Gallery also makes Scheers Schnitzel the most obvious stop after a tour along the remnants of the wall in Friedrichshain.
