Die Bühne

We happened to find this place walking around Bonn on Boxing Day. Unlike English speaking countries, German is mostly shut on Boxing Day and it was quite an effort to find any cafes or restaurants open for lunch. This one happened to be and we decided go give it a try.

It's a Mediterranean / Turkish cafe / bar with lots of small plates and things. As it is directly opposite the theatre it probably gets a lot of pre show and post show audiences.

They have a massive mezze bar with tons of choices to pick from. For €12 you can get a plate of 8 different Mezze and you can either go to the counter and make your own choices or ask the staff for a surprise plate. We decided to share one of these for lunch and it was really good. I also had a lentil soup and that was nice and flavourful. They also served nice turkish bread with the food. Service here is quite friendly and prompt.

As I could not find this business on Yelp I have set it up. Not sure how long this place has been there but some of the stuff they have has Opera Bar printed on them. I would happily come back here any day. I love Mezze plates and could happily eat it every day :-)
