"We voted with the (in the “American Monster” to the diner for the evening bread in Rathenow am Haveltor. The diners developed at the end of the 19th century. Century. Century from the mobile snack bars in the USA. But the idea goes back to a Walter Scott from Rode Island. In 1872, he had set himself in front of the “central” of a provincial newspaper with an old railway car that was converted into the snack, in order to offer the employees simple and cost-effective food, i.e. sandwiches and coffee. The background was that the restaurants in the area had already closed. Unfortunately, since the 1970s, these diners have increasingly been sold through fast food chains such as McD, BK or KFC. Fortunately, we have one or the other. Immediately upon entering the rooms we felt back in the 50s of America. The ambience, the clothes of waiters, the neon light of advertising, the music, everything fits together. Luckily we ordered the store. There was only one table without people sitting around where there was a sign, the sign on the table was reserved for us. If you are lucky, you can also take a place at a table on a red upholstery bench Cadillac. We haven't had it yet. So we take place at our table and look into the well-designed map. As always and from my treasure, I must patiently endure a little time to make me a picture of the offer and to recognize what I want to eat, what I want. The cards and napkin dispensers are centrally located on old black vinyl plates on the tables of the American restaurant. Historically there are sandwiches, but this is not everything, there are also burgers, various finger foods, scavengers, asparagus Ribs, steaks, noodles, chilli and Nacho Con Carne, and of course also a Kids Corner with 4 dishes. My wife flies over the map and immediately knows she wanted the Pulled Pork Burger in monster size. Since I am absolutely no food suspect, the choice of dishes is always a bit harder. In the end, the BBQ Spare Ribs did not leave my mind in the size class “Monster” until the order. One reason for my choice is that I usually do something I don't do at home. The drinks came very fast and the dishes were not allowed to wait long. Our food taste is consistent: “It was simply super delicious, both dishes were excellent.” What really didn't happen to me very often, I was tired before I had eaten. But then I managed the rest, only movement went a little slower and heavier after the visit. Actually, the “American Monster Diner” does not really have to be recommended, it is always fully occupied and booked what is recommended from my point of view. I wanted more visits to the diner here and now when we returned to this corner of Brandenburg. I've been looking for a long time for criticism, so far unsuccessful. I'll take the straw. The absolute crowning, so to speak the cherry on the Sahnetorte, would then be only English speaking young ladies as a waitress. But I dream again... our conclusion: It is almost hopeless, not unauthorized to hope for a table that is released, at least from the early evening. The offer fits AND the food tastes great, so there is the full number of stars."

"Before beautiful location and house and that was also the positive thing this evening. One was greeted unkindly, the waiter immediately gave everything in his underground way. The food came fast, but only a star value, because partly zero taste and it was partly cold and in price is really totally covered. The toilets without words partly defect hold disgusting. We never say again and in any case this restaurant is no recommendation value."

"Sehr schön gelegene Havelterrasse. Könnte aber gepflegter sein, Abfall auf dem Boden am Tisch. Eingangsbereich und Umfeld äusserst ungepflegt. Service professionell aber nicht einmal bemüht freundlich. Mit Ausschank und Service naturgemäß überfordert, wenn Terrasse gut besucht. Essen: Havelländer Fischtopf "tomatisiert" von der Fischqualität und grundsätzlcher Zubereitung gut. Die Tomatisierung stammte aus der Dose mit entsprechendem Nachgeschmack. Schade für die sonst gute Qualität. Champignon-Schnitzel mit frischen Champignons, aber leider mit Mehlpampe. Schweineschnitzel vom Fleisch gut, aber warum so dick paniert? Bratkartoffel lobenswert. Salatgarnitur mit süßem Dressing. Muss nicht sein.Weinschorle weiß nur im 0,2 L-Glas erhältlich. Der Preis dafür € 4,20 ist schon grenzwertig. Deswegen Licht und Schatten!"

"For a fast espresso we are here to warm up and enjoy during a walk. It worked, the espresso was good. It is clean, bright and cozy. Unfortunately, the website announced has not yet been completed. This could happen from Facebook. We'll see. On Facebook you can read that PURPUR Café Bar is strong for children and youth work, great. This brings him back the 5 stars they have lost with the lack of internet presence."

"Very stylish and with great attention to detail designed harbour restaurant with chic lounge and terrace overlooking the port and the church. A dedicated pair of guards takes care of the guests and the cook offers good food. I especially recommend his steaks. Grilled to the point delicate and according to the desired cooking level, where only a very thin skin actually with wonderfully roasted flavors (probably sous vide pre-gart). I want to come back. (Text added to the second visit in June 2016)"
