I had the cheese breakfast plate and was stuffed by the time I left. The bread was fresh and perfectly matched. Love that the food is fresh and organic.

Great spot to capture a typical european coffee house. The coffee was good and the croissant melted…read morein my mouth. The Staff was very helpful and the owner very friendly. Hope to try the egg breakfast next time!

How did I miss this place before? Really cute and cosy tiny little café right next to the…read moreVolkspark. I'll definitely go here again, as I work in the park and I liked the bagel i had there. Wanna try out more of their things and spend some time in one of their cosy couches. Ideal place for relaxation. Why only 4 stars? I didnt't try any drinks yet ;) next time!

Mamma Mia, the food is just delicious! Have been there several times and always enjoyed the food…read more The atmosphere is sweet village style. So, where is the problem? The owner! He has an unpredictable behaviour, often spontaneously rude style of treating the customers. For example: denying that there were reservation or asking people to change their table because he needs a space for a bigger group. The waitresses are very nice, always try to smooth the atmosphere. So, if you are ready for some splash of Italian village charm, go for it!

Conveniently located directly under the Hallesches Tor station--right near a splattering of…read moremuch-frequented gay bars and youth hostels--Istanbul Bistro is the PERFECT late-night hole in the wall to pick up a better-than-average döner kebab for the U-Bahn ride or stroll home. Order a döner "mit alles" ("with everything") on it, including Schafskäse ("sheep's milk cheese") and hot sauce (that should be the way to order them anywhere in Germany, IMHO). This döner is definitely one of the better ones out there; you'll find yourself moaning with pleasure at every bite. I even vividly recall stopping dead in my drunken tracks in order to savor every morsel on certain walks home, the frigid Berlin winter wind be damned. Whenever I'm in Berlin I make an effort to stop by Istanbul at least once, which is super easy to do based on location alone.

I chanced upon this treasure when I was in the midst of changing U-bahns in Halleches Tor. The…read moreunwavering smell of food just hits you once you're down the escalator. Nothing touristy, no gimmicks, just good, delicious doner kebabs. Meat taste crazy good, just a nice hint of saltiness, crispy edges of meat and yet still moist and thinly slice! The meat to vegetables ratio is fantastic. Great amount of meat and the vegetables are fresh and super crunchy. This is my go to for the best doner in Berlin.

Enjoyed an excellent Austrian charcuterie plate here for lunch at the start of July. Watch out for…read morecheeky sparrows who know no fear though, if you choose to sit out on the terrace.

I had been wanting to visit this place for quite some time and never quite got round to it, so when…read moreI discovered that I could walk here from the office of my new place of work in about ten minutes I knew I had the perfect opportunity to check it out. Its situated in one of Berlin's most beautiful parks. The Volkspark has a wonderful playground for kids but is too far away from the café for you to be able to enjoy the café at the same time that the kids are enjoying the Spielplatz. Schönbrunn is subtly split into three sections: kiosk, restaurant and garten. The Kiosk has a limited choice of food and is really just targeting people that want a drink and a sandwich or ice cream. The restaurant provides the most extensive range of food with the prices ranging from EUR10 to EUR20 for a main course. Since I was meeting some friends for a drink, I decided to try the garten section which has tasty pizzas for around EUR7 or you can try the BBQ serving Wurste (EUR2) and Pork steaks (EUR3.50) on roll.
