Looking for good coffee or a pleasant outdoor spot?
Check out The Source inside the Uferstudios campus! You might catch music from the dancers' practice rooms or even meet some of them at the cafe. The rough, industrial setting adds a unique charm to this place. If you're hungry, no problem: The Source offers a wide selection of brunch and lunch dishes, along with delightful sweet treats.
The outdoor benches are perfect for soaking up the sunshine. Situated near the Panke walking trail, The Source is an ideal spot to meet friends and take a leisurely stroll along the river afterwards. Follow the trail north to Bürgerpark Pankow and relax on the grass for a serene finish to your day!
