We have no idea who this Bob Murphy actually is, but his coffee certainly deserves praise. Served from a small window counter on a quiet residential street, you could almost miss it if it weren't for the cool crowd that gathers outside. Despite its unassuming appearance, this little gem offers some of the best coffee in Berlin, made with locally roasted beans and brewed to perfection by the friendly baristas who always remember your usual order — a rare treat in big cities these days.
In addition to the coffee, you can enjoy soft, buttery croissants, crispy pain au chocolat, refreshing smoothies, and homemade cookies, making it an ideal stop for a quick breakfast.
With its warm, personal service and exceptional coffee, Bob Murphy has quickly become an integral part of the community here, where the neighbours come for their daily caffeine fix and a friendly chat.
Though there’s no indoor seating, the cute outdoor tables more than make up for it and on warm days it offers the perfect spot to linger in the sun with a good book and an iced coffee.
