What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Brothers Bakery & Café offers a diverse menu with highly praised halal burgers and authentic Turkish-inspired dishes at good prices. While many enjoy the food, coffee, and cakes, some reviews mention issues with management and customer service efficiency, especially during peak hours.
"The place is Turkish inspired, modern self-service restaurant that has three separate stations, burger -bakery/sweets - the rest(traditional dishes, soups, pizza, pasta) the served food is Halal. The burger was just AMAZING. lentil soup is just what you would get in any local soup shop in Turkey. A very pleasing experience. Great Halal food, fast service, clean, modern and staff were friendly and multilingual.
Thank you."

"The burgers were good for the price paid. Food was sufficient. May get a little loud at times, and more like self service. But it was okay."

Die 9 besten Restaurants der Stadt
Das Brothers nennt sich Bäckerei und Café, ist aber weit mehr als das: Hier treffen sich Menschen aus dem Leipziger Osten, quer durch Generationen, Schicksale, Identitäten. Es gibt Baklava und Blechkuchen, Lahmacun und gefüllte Auberginen. Zum Frühstück wird köstliches Rührei serviert, etwa mit Sucuk oder Champignons und Paprika.

If you’re looking for a cool place for a tasty Turkish-style breakfast or lunch, drop by this pub, founded by three brothers. After living in Turkey, my expectations for Turkish cuisine are really high, and they were fulfilled here. We went there after our breakfast, so we ordered pide (Turkish “pizza”) and lahmacun.
