Dicke Wirtin

On Savignyplatz in Charlottenburg, Dicke Wirtin sits like a cozy anchor in City West. This traditional Old Berlin restaurant, with its open fireplace, stands for hearty home cooking, self-produced sausages, and an atmosphere that truly breathes Berlin history.

Berlin Pub Culture by the Fireplace

The establishment owes its name to the original landlady Anna Stanscheck, who cooked primarily for artists, authors, actors, and students. Little has changed since then. Dicke Wirtin on Savignyplatz has been considered a Berlin institution for decades. This is evident from the decor. Wood paneling, subdued lighting, and furniture with one foot in the historical past provide the warmth that has characterized this place for decades. The fireplace itself is not a decorative accessory, but the emotional center of the dining room. Regulars sit alongside newcomers, and all enjoy the same thing: the tranquility of a place that refuses to be bent.

Hearty Cuisine and Nine Beers on Tap at Dicke Wirtin

Old Berlin cuisine stands for hearty flavor, regional ingredients, and filling dishes. Regular guests repeatedly return for Eisbein with sauerkraut or Boulette with fried potatoes. In addition, there’s the exclusive Berliner Ring Fleischwurst, produced specifically for the restaurant, as well as wild boar sausage. Also available are nine beers on tap, homemade liqueurs and brandies, and exquisite wines. Portions are generous, evenings often long. A reservation is recommended for the evening, as the restaurant is usually fully booked.
