Munchies conquers Charlottenburg: The burger revolution is here!

Kantstraße, 10585 Berlin, Deutschland - Berlin has developed into the Burger capital of Germany in recent years, and with the opening of Munchies in Charlottenburg, the hype for gourmet burger continues to increase. The founders David Ehebald and Joschka Schäfer, who originally started with a food truck for Tacos, have successfully expanded their concept. In September 2023, the first Munchies restaurant opened in Bergmannkiez, where the demand is so great that there are often long snakes and waiting times. Now Munchies is active with a second branch on Kantstraße in Charlottenburg, which has been open since March 2024.

The new branch stands out by an exciting menu. In addition to the popular Smashburgers, guests can also order Nashville-Chicken-Sandwiches and Birria-Tacos online. Ehenbald, who comes from Charlottenburg, sees the opening of the new branch as ideal to reach local customers. His surprise about the quick rise of the company is reflected in the sales figures, which impressively prove the potential of Munchies.

a new concept for gourmet burger

The concept of Munchies aims to close a gap in the market by offering gourmet burger in a dynamic and creative catering landscape. The inspiration for the dishes comes from the USA, a country known for its diverse burger and peace-chick culture. More and more burger restaurants are using high-quality and regional ingredients, which gives gastronomy in Berlin additional freshness and quality. Trends such as the Smashed Burger, in which the patty is pressed flat on a hot grill plate, are becoming increasingly popular.

The challenge for Munchies remains the parking situation on Kantstrasse. Nevertheless, Ehebald is optimistic that the large store offers enough space for the guests. The high interest in Munchies fits seamlessly into the lively gastronomic scene of Berlin, which is constantly trying out new trends and concepts. Restaurants like Goldies in Kreuzberg document their journey as a gourmet provider based on the ideas of Munchies, and thus contribute to the creative diversity of the city.

gastronomic diversity and new concepts

The Berlin catering scene is dynamic and includes a wide range of offers. In addition to burger restaurants, there are more and more innovative concepts, such as the fusion kitchens in Neukölln, which combine influences from the Caribbean and Southeast Asia. Established restaurants and new currents show that the demand for extraordinary food is growing continuously. Nowadays, a good burger restaurant is characterized by the quality of the ingredients, creative recipes and an inviting atmosphere. This also includes a perfect bun that has to convince both in the consistency and in taste.

Hugging high-quality and sustainable ingredients remains a central feature of the current burger trends. Munchies brings fresh impulses to a segment that has been firmly anchored in Germany since the 1950s and has steadily developed since the 2000s. Against the background of these developments, Munchies plays a central role in the design of the city's future burger culture.
