Pretzel Nook

Not sure I blinked in the amount of time it took us to devour this pretzel.
My husband had gone out the night before looking for snacks and beer to begin our weekend getaway. While he was searching, he spotted the Pretzel Nook and filed it away for the next day.
When we came in here, the pretzel cook let us know it would be a minute before we had a pretzel because she was having trouble keeping up with demand – don’t worry, we weren’t mad. What’s better than a FRESH soft pretzel? THIS SOFT PRETZEL. She made the thing as we watched and then bathed it in hot butter. We got cheese, but it was completely unnecessary because this buttery dough was perfection. It was melt-​in-​your-​mouth good.
Note that there aren’t any photos for this business – no one has a chance to take a photo of their pretzel before they’re licking butter off of their dripping fingers.

We stopped in here to grab a pretzel while visiting the touristy bits of Amish Country. Immediately after ordering our pretzel I was kinda surprised to see the lady tie the pretzel knot, toss it on a pan, and pop it into the hot box. A few minutes later our pretzel emerged and I stood in awe as she dredged the entire thing through a _​_​BATH OF MELTED BUTTER_​_​before leaving it to drip on a rack for a few moments. Shake of salt and it was in my hand.
Skip the cheese, there’s no need for it given the primetime explosion of flavor that hot fresh pretzel dough and melted butter with *just* enough salt can provide.
We devoured this thing in record time.

I came here a few days with some other church members while in Berlin. Came here as I heard the pretzels were amazing! I had a traditional pretzel with jalapeño cheese. It was pretty good. I wouldn’t say it’s the biggest and best pretzel I’d ever had. It was kind’ve small actually. Taste wise, it was very tasty! However, I was hoping for something a bit «more.» I guess I’m just used to the Annie Anne’s Pretzels and how massive they are. Three stars isn’t bad. It’s still an «A-​ok» rating. Would probably stop here again if I’m in the area.

OMG the best soft pretzels EVER! In my decades of experience as a soft pretzel connoisseur, as my hips and tummy will vehemently attest, I’ve savored them in stadiums, from street vendors, malls, carnivals, ships, microwave ovens, homemade, and nearly everywhere else shy of with green eggs and ham. This place takes the cake… errr soft pretzel dough… as the BEST we’ve ever had!
We discovered this small shop walking near the top of the hill in «downtown Berlin» on a frigid winter day. Talk about hitting the spot with a handful of hot, soft, chewy, buttery goodness.
I’m guessing that the term «healthy» certainly doesn’t apply in the least bit here but if I had to die happy this is the place I’d start!
