"Every time I visit my son in Kassel, I'll pass the Café Nordpol, where he lives in the vicinity. This means that in the meantime we have visited this café again and again, for a very late breakfast, for a little bite with a drink or just for relaxing at one of the tables in front of the café with great warmth under a shaded chestnut. Inside there are two guest rooms, one behind glass for the smokers, all simply furnished in an appealing bistro style. If the place is fully occupied, the noise level can also be quite high. According to the HP, Café Nordpol understands itself as a meeting point for different cultures, nationalities, professional and age groups in a cosy atmosphere. And that is true, of course also due to the immediate proximity to the Kassel University, the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof and the Klinikum in the Nord district. Many call the café “DAS Breakfast Savings of the City”. The offer is very diverse: from 09.00 a.m. you can choose between 18 different complete breakfast offers (3.50 € to 10.90 € as well as other small dishes for breakfast. When we had breakfast here a few months ago, we were very satisfied with both the quality and the plentiful amount. If you don’t have breakfast until the afternoon, you don’t have to starve in the “Café Nordpol”, because after breakfast offers the actual menu begins. Warm dishes are available throughout from 12 noon – 24.00 a.m., a wide range of Mediterranean appetizers, plenty of hot baguettes, various omeletts, salads, pizzas in all variations, pasta, baked, skating, rinds, meat dishes with all kinds of meat, also carving and Arg. Rumpsteak. The price calculation is absolutely customer-friendly, the prices for most of the main dishes are between 5,00 € and 8.00 €. Only 3 or 4 main dishes cost more than € 10.00 (steak, lamb). In our visit today, the hunger was slightly larger in the late afternoon/early evening and after the menu was passed through, we decided relatively quickly for a gypsy carving with fries and mixed salad (7.50 €, plus a 0.4 l of cola for me and a 0.5 l of crystal wheat each at € 3.20. The side salads come quickly on our table, all ingredients fresh and crisp with a spicy yogurt dressing that tastes good to us. After another suitable waiting period, we are served the carvings, large pieces, the meat juicy and well seasoned. The panade doesn't look like a frituse dress and doesn't taste like it, but the carving is cooked in it, because on my demand at the young service lady she said she was asking in the kitchen and the cook said it was his secret. The beautifully ally gypsy sauce had the right sharpness for me, but my son loves it much sharper, it tasted it anyway. Overall, we had a plentiful portion without a culinary high altitude flight, but with neat meat quality and attractive supplements at a very good price. The service is friendly and uncomplicated, works quickly, also with appropriate queries. We'll be back. PS. Unfortunately no photos today, something stuck."
