https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DarmstadtHaven't seen much as regards a clothing scene, except that SV Darmstadt 98 swag is everywhere since the side entered the Bundesliga. This is a very informal town and not a fashion center, though the student population occasionally sports some interesting looks.
There is an Iron Heart retailer here, Volls (
www.volls.de).
Given the dearth of clothing news, on to the chow options:
--Murat Kebap Haus: Oberstraße 35, 64297 Darmstadt. Best food in Darmstadt IMHO; nice people, too.
--Ban Thai:
http://www.banthai-darmstadt.de. Similarly awesome. They just catered a party for us and the food was very well received.
