In Short
We have an insider tip for you: Sandcafé. A place where traditional Turkish and Arabic specialties meet modern zeitgeist and offer a top-class breakfast experience. Service is a top priority here, and the homemade delicacies will make any food lovers’ heart beat faster.
Welcome to the Sandcafé – an Atmosphere to Fall in Love with
Sandcafé is not just another café in Hamburg, but a small oasis in the middle of the city. The interior reflects the cultural diversity of the food – warm colors, oriental patterns, and music that fits. When you enter the café, you first come into a beautiful but rather unspectacular room with “normal” tables and chairs. Behind the counter, however, lies the true magic of the café: a room where you can relax on sofas and armchairs. The atmosphere there is completely different – highly recommended!
However, the highlight of Sandcafé are the sand tubs, which are used to prepare the traditional coffee. This is not only unique in Hamburg, but in the whole of Germany.

A Feast for the Senses – Taste Sensations at Sandcafé
The food at Sandcafé is not only delicious, it also looks fantastic. The pancakes are so fluffy that they almost melt in your mouth, and served with Nutella and banana, they are a dream for anyone with a sweet tooth. The tropical smoothie made from mango, pineapple, banana and yoghurt is not only refreshing, but also so filling that it can almost replace a small meal.
The Eggy Pop is a must for anyone who loves a hearty meal. The combination of tomatoes, cucumber, eggs with sucuk, homemade dips and pickled olives is simply perfect. We especially loved the garlic dip – we just couldn’t get enough of it!
Homemade and Prepared with Love
Sandcafé places great value on home-made ingredients. You notice this with every bite. The dips are fresh and tasty, the bread is crispy and the coffee – prepared in the traditional sand tubs – is a real highlight. We were particularly impressed by the friendliness of the staff. The service was not only nice, but also attentive and helpful. As a guest, you really feel welcome here.
