Rüyam 2 Berlin

Berlin's Best Döner

Natalie from Berlin

"They take the traditional döner in Berlin and transform it into a borderline art form. With flavorful sauces, meat, vegetables, spices, herbs, bread, and cheese, there's no wonder each bite tastes better than the last."

Döner was invented by the Turkish immigrant Kadir Nurman in Berlin in 1972. So if you're in Berlin and have not tried döner yet, let me tell you there is no time like the present... and if you're in Berlin, you really should have the best of the best at Rüyam.

Rüyam is a crowd favourite in Berlin, and it's easy to see why. They take the traditional döner in Berlin and transform it into a borderline art form. With flavorful sauces, meat, vegetables, spices, herbs, bread, and cheese, there's no wonder each bite tastes better than the last.

I recommend you order the #1 and go for the gold with their Gemüse Kebap. That'll really set you up for success. You'll easily see why this is such a beloved spot in the city. If you're vegan or vegetarian don't fret! They offer variations with halloumi, extra vegetables, and/or falafel. Plus you can omit their yogurt sauce and cheese to make the meal fully plant-based.

There are two locations in Berlin, but I recommend you visit the Prenzlauer Berg one, as seen here, although you can find the original spot in Schöneberg. Both locations serve fantastic döner so you can visit whichever you're closest to, but the P'Berg location is my favorite. They offer ample seating, plus free black tea.

Berlin Spotter Natalie

About me I’m Natalie, a Berlin-based blogger from California, USA.

On my blog, natalieetc.com, I write about my favorite places in Berlin, food, local tips, personal inspiration, and my travels outside of the city. My favorite thing to write about is food! I visit a diverse mix of restauran...
