We can hardly resist popping into this great vintage spot whenever we're in Berlin. They have a killer selection of Japanese and Japanese-inspired pieces.

Acid is an ideal pit stop after a morning checking out the cluster of boutique clothing and design shops on Alte Schönhauser Strasse. Warm wooden interiors act as a cosy backdrop to a shop that is serious about pastries. Knotted cardamom buns are served on metal plates and monthly specials include cream-stuffed Roman-inspired marritozi or pain Suisse filled with almond custard and Tanzanian chocolate. The Basque cheesecake is also a winner – grab a slice and enjoy some of the best people watching in Berlin. 

We have found your new go-to in Berlin. A restaurant that is easy on the eyes complimented by an ever-changing menu. Remi delights in every way. Be sure to pop-in for lunch on Saturday's and be delighted by their surprise menu!

There's always a long queue outside this Mitte café is for Danish chef Frederik Bille Brahe low-intervention craft baking. The wedges of sourdough topped with whipped butter and Comte won’t disappoint nor will the seasonal pastries such as cardamom-spiced buns filled with marzipan and toasted almond pieces, topped with whipped cream as well as classic cakes, and gooey cookies. Arrive before 7.30am to beat the crowds.
