Guten Morgen is a very quiet place; even though you are in the middle of Moda, a very popular neighbourhood, that's what it feels like. It's a new discovery for me and it seems like it will take its place in my favourite list.
When you see Guten Morgen, you really feel the vibe and its simple, cosy and friendly atmosphere. After having my coffee with their delicious cookie, it feels like I'm in Berlin, as their design and decoration are very similar to Berlin cafes. It is also a very pet-friendly place. During sunny summer days, it's a great idea to spend an afternoon while feeling the neighbourhood life here.
Since Guten Morgen means "Good Morning", they have good alternatives for breakfast. Homemade sandwiches with sourdough bread, cookies and healthy desserts with delicious coffee. So let's enjoy.
