Joe Champs - Köln

After a lovely tram ride we decided to stop off here for some drinks. We were not disappointed. The beverages were amazing, and the service we received was impeccable.

I'd read the review posted here last March by another Irish lad, who mentioned a mouse running around the restaurant. I came here twice on my recent visit to Cologne and, guess what? On my second visit, out comes a mouse, running around like he owned the place on the downstairs floor! Was it the same mouse??!! Other than that, this place is great if you want to watch a soccer match. TV screens everywhere over the two floors and a giant cinema screen in the middle. We were greeted at the door on both occasions by a waitress who asked which game we'd like to watch. She put us in front of a screen and got the game on it. It was a Champions League game week and they seemed to have half a dozen different games on at the same time. The food is also really good. Great wholesome, hearty burgers and wedges. You can wash it down with 0.6-litre glasses of Kolsch if you want. So a cool sports bar with great atmosphere and great food and beer to enjoy while you watch your match. But that mouse... What's the story?!

Hui, this is ne Sportsbar. Leinwand. Big bar. Many, many tables distributed everywhere. You can't get out of place. It's Saturday night. We are served fixedly and the choice quickly falls on Burger. Mexican Burger and Devil Burger. With a bunch of fries and a bowl of Coleslaw. 17.40 Euro per burger including 3.50 extra for the Fries. sliced wheat bread, but well filled between the two halves. The Mexican's got a lot of Bacon on it, and it's a good thing. But he's not comparable to the Devil. He doesn't hurt his name. Teuflisch sharp. And the buddy who ordered it likes to eat sharp. Currywurst level 5 of 8 is normal with him. And, of course, he wanted to challenge it today and ordered a small bowl with sharp sauce. It has not even become empty.... Actually, you should experience a game of the 1.FC Köln here. The surviving-sized shackle on the wall, which looks down on the way the stairs up to the toilet, has also succeeded.

One of the first contacts for sports fans. There are always several options on the screen and TV, in addition to football also formula 1, football or basketball. The menu is classic American, the last visit was tasteful, but something more unforgettable. I think every kitchen has good and bad days, the day the food was a little faded. In contrast, Spare Ribs were always top, Chicken Wings also, with attentive service and generous beverage card. A fixed address for a group night.

Good fast food restaurant in American style. Cool is that in the background sports television is running. The food, in my case Burger and Pommes, tasted good. But I have to take a few points for the service. Although the number of visitors was relatively clear, we had to wait for our food for a long time.
