Café Blaffke Berlin

coffee roastery in Florastraße

"It’s a lovely community hub where friends gather to enjoy each other’s company."

Café Blaffke in Pankow is a charming roastery worth visiting. The speciality coffee is brewed to perfection, with smooth flavours that stand out among other cafés in Florastraße.

One thing to note is their no-laptop policy on weekends. While this might not be great for work or study sessions on Saturdays and Sundays, it actually enhances the relaxed, unplugged vibe of the place.

It’s a nice little spot to unwind and enjoy your surroundings without distractions. The café is situated in a very family-friendly area, adding to its charm. It’s a lovely community hub where friends gather to enjoy each other’s company.

I recommend stopping by for a cup of good coffee and a piece of cake.

Macondo Berlin

Macondo – Creative Latin Cafébar in Friedrichshain

One word to describe Macondo? Bustling! It's not the place if you need a quiet space to work, but it's nice if you want to have it all: work, play, wine, and coffee.

The Berlin Art Market – Buy Local in Berlin

I suggest stopping by the Berlin Art Market by the Zeughaus to pick up a locally created art piece. Since the market is located in the center of Museum Island it's easy to reach.
