The Greens Berlin

A Plant and Coffee Lover's Dream

"The best part? Every plant is available for purchase so you can take a bit of the café home with you! From seedlings and succulents to plants that may require a little extra help to get out of the coffee shop."

The Greens is a plant and coffee lover's dream. Every corner of this hidden café in Mitte is brimming with life. You'll find a plethora of indoor plants in practically every free space in this adorable café, making it a relaxing and zen spot in the city.

The best part? Every plant is available for purchase so you can take a bit of the café home with you! From seedlings and succulents to plants that may require a little extra help to get out of the coffee shop - there's something for everyone. The food at The Greens is just as lovely as their decor. Find wellness drinks, teas, classic and creative takes on coffee, and plenty of tasty plant-based treats. My perfect order? A seasonal coffee with oat milk, tofu cream cheese, and greens croissant, and a lemon rosemary vegan cookie to finish off the idyllic meal.

You can visit to plant shop, enjoy a morning or afternoon treat, or work on your laptop. The café is located in an unassuming, yet central, part of Mitte, along the Spree river.

Backery & Coffee

Neighborhood Turkish Bakery

My favorite item they offer has to be their potato gözleme: it's a generous portion that's rich, flavorful, and both crispy and soft.

Balaram

Vegan ice cream

"Balaram" in Berlin is a vegan ice cream shop. They have 12 varieties and extra toppings are free! It's very good, it doesn't taste like ice or sherbet...

The Sanctuary Berlin

The Sanctuary

Vegan Italian Bakery

I am a big fan of their pistachio maritozzo which is a soft Roman bun filled with cream and topped with crushed pistachios. It's absolutely amazing, and not overwhelmingly sweet.

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 Berlin

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.
