We are happy to present our Top 5 Cafés in Berlin in collaboration with
Green Cup Coffee.
Last week we went to explore and find our favorite cafés in Berlin. We
came across some true coffee lovers and found cozy places to have a
decent cup of coffee and also some small establishments where you can
pick up your coffee to go.
Just pick your personal favorite but make sure to check out these exceptional coffee places, our top 5 cafés in Berlin. Enjoy.
WESTBERLIN
Café
Westberlin is
right around the corner of Checkpoint Charlie. The ultimate tourist spot
but a few meters down the road you’ll be surprised to find this nice
spot that is mainly filled with families, office employees who enjoy
their lunchbreak and well… tourists. It is a very mixed and friendly
atmosphere, it seems like everybody is welcome and as the owner Kai
Brüer once said ‘we are child-, tourist- and laptop-friendly’. Besides
your cup of coffee you may also enjoy some really nice snacks such as
delicious sandwiches, homemade cake or a croissant. Westberlin also
offers a great selection of books and magazines about art, architecture
and fashion as well as a separate work and reading area.
COMPANION COFFEE
If you haven’t checked it out yet, you should go have a coffee at
Companion Coffee.
Chris and Shawn who are running the café since January, are true coffee
enthusiasts and know everything about the art of brewing coffee.
Companion Coffee is actually a very suitable name as the café is
accompanying the Voo store located in the same space which offers a very
nice range of high-end clothing. The perfect location to enjoy some
nice shopping along with your cup of coffee. By the way, the beautiful
concrete and wood mixed tables are crafted by Berlin-based designer
Sigurd Larsen and they are for sale. We sure appreciate the well-made
mix of design, fashion, small treasuries, passionate staff and of course
the delicious coffee.
FIVE ELEPHANT
This café seems a bit remote, situated in a quiet neighborhood in
Berlin Kreuzberg. The perfect space to enjoy some hot beverages, take a
rest and eat cake.
Five Elephant
has its own little bakery in the back of the café that is producing
tasty homemade cake that you should really give a try. Passionate about
quality, their goal is to source the best coffees in the world in a way
that is socially and environmentally responsible. They want their
customers to understand the journey that coffee takes from the farm to
their cup and they keep close contact with their suppliers. Responsible
enjoyment in a cozy, laid-back atmosphere.
CHAPTER ONE
Situated in the heart of Berlin Kreuzberg, Chapter One Coffee is a
place where quality and passion go hand in hand. Offering different
seasonal espressi as well as slow coffee variations that undergo a
procedure that submerges water, coffee and the element of time. The
outcome of this filtered coffee is delicious, it has an almost tea like
taste and is nothing like the rather questionable filter coffee you had
so far. As the café is rather short of space you should consider to take
your coffee to go, though of course there is a seating area that
invites everyone to stay and enjoy a cup of coffee at Chapter One. The
staff you’ll meet here is sure in love with the coffee bean and knows
how to treat it real good. You’ll taste the difference, so take your
time for a freshly hot or cold brewed cup of coffee.
DOUBLE EYE
At
Double Eye you get served
coffee by a man who definitely knows what he’s doing as owner Arno
Schmeil was world champion in brewing espresso in 2005 and 2006. When
entering the small café we have no doubt about that we are about to get
something special as we can almost not squeeze ourselves in the already
more than crowded little space. Though the baristas seem used to the
perpetual line in front of the café and are really quick in serving what
is known as one of Berlin’s best coffees. We approve, but just go and
check it out yourself.
