Theplacetobe Frankfurt

The Berlin corner

Alexandra from Frankfurt

""Theplacetobe" in Frankfurt really makes me feel like I'm actually in Berlin. It's just as relaxed as I need it to be to start a replenishing weekend..."

Do you ever start feeling worn out by the corporate world, the high heels and the ties and the classiness and fanciness and all that jazz? I know I do and that is the reason I feel so comfortable in Berlin - it is relaxed and informal and simply unpretentious. But does that have to do with anything?

Well, theplacetobe will give you that relaxed and informal feeling of being in Berlin. Or at least that is the feeling I get whenever I am there. Attached to its sister place, called Souper, theplacetobe really is the place to be if you're up for a late morning coffee, a light lunch, an after-work beer or an evening cocktail. You can order from both places and enjoy the common terrace with a bowl a soup, or a drink, and enjoy a much-needed break.

The staff are always nice but if you are sitting outside it might be worth going in and ordering directly from the counter. I really enjoy going there on Fridays after work, sitting outside on the unpretentious terrace with a good book and an Astra beer, recharging my batteries for the weekend ahead. Its light and relaxed mood always lifts my spirits and makes for the perfect start of a replenishing weekend!

Frankfurt Spotter Alexandra

About me I was born in Porto, which was the city I first started exploring with the aim of finding and sharing knowledge about special places – places that you don't (usually) find in the tourist guides. Meanwhile, I have lived in the Netherlands, in Romania and, more recently, in Germany. In each city I have lived I have tried to go where locals go, eat what they eat, live as they do. All in all, I am a city lover. I take great pleasure in uncovering hidden urban gems and secrets, and when I travel, I also try to get off the beaten track to get a grip of the real city. ...

Moloko+

Back to the '70s bar

"Moloko+" Frankfurt is not only a trip back to the '70s in terms of decoration, but it also reminds me of Berlin -- a style I couldn't find anywhere else.
