The Best Spots to Try Currywurst on Friedrichstrasse, Berlin
Friedrichstraße is a vibrant shopping district in Berlin, which runs as a straight line through Mitte and Kreuzberg. The area houses popular tourist attractions like Checkpoint Charlie and Trännenplast, as well as the city’s official homage to its favourite treat, The Currywurst Museum. It’s an area that’s definitely worth adding to your Berlin itinerary, and here are the best spots to treat yourself to a currywurst while you’re there.
Witty’s Currywurst
Food Stand, German
The only all-organic currywurst spot in Berlin, Witty’s Currywurst is a popular kiosk with three locations in the city. Using only local meat and produce, this includes their amazing bio curry-ketchup and succulent sausages (offered with and without skin) – it’s some of the tastiest currywurst in town. A local favourite is, of course, the currywurst with Belgian-style fries, but there are also bratwurst and frankfurters on offer.

Die Bude
Food Stand, German
Die Bude, or the shack, is a cosy currywurst stall located close to Friedrichstraße, near the Topography of Terror and the Currywurst Museum. This joint serves up delicious sausages smothered in plenty of rich curry-ketchup and accompanied by a generous portion of fries. Enjoy it just like the locals, standing at the few tables outside, chowing down and people watching.
Curry 61
Restaurant, Fast Food
One of the best currywurst spots in town is located just a short trip from Friedrichstraße. Close to Hackescher Markt, Curry 61 is a small food stand serving up well-priced, quick bites, including, of course, original Berlin currywurst, drowning in rich ketchup and curry powder.
Curry-One
Food Kiosk, German, Fast Food
At Curry-One it’s all about mouthwatering, real sausages, topped with freshly made, thick curry-ketchup. Located at the northern part of Friedrichstraße, close to Oranienburger Tor, it’s the perfect late-night treat or food break while shopping in the area.
Dom Curry
Food Stall, German
Nestled under the stunning operatic building in Gendarmenmarkt, Dom Curry is the fast food currywurst stall with a fancy edge. Here, visitors can indulge in this favourite street food treat while enjoying the classical ambience of the area.
