    Perfect lawn in the Center of the park for laying out with a blanket a beer and a book on warm summer afternoons. It gets quite popular on weekends and summer evenings with small groups. All around the outside of the square on Saturdays there is a farmers market with fresh produce, cheese, fish, spices, kombucha, pastries and liquorice and a few restaurant carts. On Sundays in season there’s a flea market with furniture, clothes, plants and art. Always a nice time.

    Nice square that hosts a fantastic market on Saturdays. You can buy there veggies, fruits, some stuff too home and try some great food from the food trucks. I’d recommend holland fisch that’s located there every Saturday at one of the corners. Top fish, great people running the place, 5/5!

    If you seek safe passage through these lands, or merely to enjoy the golden brews of the Alemanen on the green pastures of the parks central valley, you must avoid the northeast corner, close to the green fortress of the pissoir. This area belongs to a nomad folk by the name of hom’less, who you will have to pay your weight in coin should you dare to rest upon their sacred benches.

    Depends which season and which day it can be a magical place or just overfilled with tourists and strange folks. Glad to have a park nearby tho sometimes I rather hang in the hidden cemetery cause it's more peaceful

    This could be a good place, but alcoholics, junkies and hundreds of rats unfortunately define it's atmosphere. The Sunday Fleamarket is worth to see.

  • 5/5 Heroes del T. 1 year ago on Google
    5 stars for the Saturday market, most of the time on Sundays markets, too - cool spot then. During the week nothing special, so no real reason to visit. Shops and bars around are nice.

    One of the best market places (parks), where I have ever been. Definitely people do places like that and people in Berlin are lovely. Love the underground atmosphere mixed with modern art and fashion. Berlin ❤️

    Visited the market today in the park. It was amazing. Dr. Hummus has amazing food. We had the falafels and the schwarma wraps are amazing! We also had olives, coffee, tea, spices and some veggies from various vendors.

    Nice place with a lot of restaurants and cafes around it. During spring and summer (when the temperatures are nice and warmer) you go chill on the grass and enjoy a cold beverage. Every Saturday (with some exception) you have a food market, where you find fresh fish, vegetables, cheese and more. You also have cooked food like pierogi, gözlem and some pasta. Every Sunday (with some exception) you have a flea market.

    Multicultural, and the most important is the Sunday market where a lot of very important and useful used and new things are sold, there are household items, construction equipment, accessories, fashion, food and much much much more interesting

    First time here since Covid. They restaurants are still open with takeaways. Crowded at the weekend market (Wochenmarkt) on Saturday. Good to get fresh meat and cheese, the hobby stalls are just nice to see (not buy). International neighborhood and popular restaurants nearby. Good hangout place for young people and family too. Will come back again!

    A place to visit in Berlin! On Saturdays, there's the local farm market. On Sundays, there's a flea market with many second hand clothes. I suggest avoiding those "business" sellers, and buy from the spontaneous or historical ones.

    Fun Little market, another man's junk is another persons....well you get the point. Fun place to look around, found a juice seller that sold real fresh squished pomegranate with real pomegranate seeds inside (better than any store bought stuff) and 1 small indie artist with the cutest hand made goods. Otherwise wish it had more artists stands, just feels like a huge yard sale but more expensive.

    We visited the Boxhagener Platz for the Sunday flea market during mid-September. The market was fun to browse around and find potentially interesting vintage stuff. A couple of cool looking old-school furniture and tons of vinyl records. The vibe of the whole area was great, and people were enjoying both the park and the flea market. All cafes and restaurants nearby were super busy as well. Well worth the visit, especially on a Sunday when the flea market is up and running 🍓

  • 5/5 Helen R. 6 months ago on Google • 30 reviews
    This park is a very lively place for people to hang out at the weekend. There are two brilliant markets a mainly food and craft one on Saturday and then on Sunday it is clothes and antiques/bric a brac. Well worth a visit.

    Fav place on Saturdays for a walk and famers market kind of vibe

  • 5/5 Daniel Boullosa P. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic place. On sunny weekends it's very crowded. It has many market stalls with foods and products. A very nice place to spend the afternoon.

  • 4/5 Kazanian's E. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice and compact with lots of eating and drinking opportunities surrounding it. The market is a good mix of junk, antiques, second hand and art/handmade. The prices are not so cheap but bargains are still possible. A good market for furniture and homewards.

  • 4/5 Paul S. 6 months ago on Google
    You go here to look at other people, really, and feel cool about yourself for being there with them. "See and be seen?" I'm not saying that that in itself is bad, but I see little other reason to come to this specific park and its neighbourhood, specifically. If you wanted to enjoy being in a park for, say, the greenery, there's plenty of better options because this park is tiny and crowded most of the time.

  • 5/5 dev e. 2 years ago on Google
    very nice and friendly place. lots of gates and fences for kids to play safe and lots of benches to have a beer, meet a friend and such. feels safe 20/7

  • 5/5 Pavlo M. 3 years ago on Google
    It’s a great local market for farmers food and goods. Overflowing with people on Saturday, literally couldn’t go through without bumping into someone. Nice vibe, good food and coffee, recommended.

  • 4/5 Ash V. 2 years ago on Google
    Can be very busy on the slightest of nice days, but great Saturday (commercial) and Sunday (flea) markets + lots of bars, cafes and restaurants around the square so always space for somewhere to be + hang. Recently revamped it too, so looks a bit nicer.

  • 5/5 Christos N. 10 months ago on Google
    Summers at Boxhagner are really nice to take a towel or blanket and lie in the center of the grass and enjoy the sun. Also Sundays you have a floh market with plenty local things to purchase. Can get quite busy.

  • 3/5 Esin Çelebi B. 2 years ago on Google
    I have visited in a cold and rainy day in November that is why it was not as good as I thought it would be. Nice food market place on saturday with full of people. I was told clothing market is on Sundays. I noted that it would be nice to visit in summer.

  • 5/5 Steve P. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome sweet potato fries, hot and crispy but not oily or greasy! Hamburger and chicken sandwich equally tasty. Dropped in on a Wednesday about 2 PM. Not busy, so good service. Would return for another visit. Popcorn, nicely seasoned served in a tray is a nice touch. Interesting art/stickers on the walls of the toilet. Just needs a little variety in their musical choices. Enjoy!

  • 5/5 Clare 1 year ago on Google
    Great little market. Lots of thrift clothes at only 1 Euro. Also some good trinkets and antiques. We went on the Sunday afternoon around 3pm.

  • 4/5 CJ J. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice park in central area of Berlin, On Saturdays there is a large farmer's market, there is a Sunday market, similar to a Flea Market..used clothes, furniture and other curios.

  • 5/5 maxine w. 1 year ago on Google
    Great selection of things to buy - mostly second hand clothes and furniture/houseware but also some artisan jewellery and accessories. Always bustling which I like. Most sellers take card but not all. Also loads of choices for places to eat or grab a coffee nearby too.

  • 5/5 Roxy W. 1 year ago on Google
    So many cafe and interesting shops around place🤩 And cool flea market at the weekend.

  • 4/5 Merk U. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice stroll on weekends, but dead on week days. Pricey except for a few stands. I like it though a good vibe to chill alone or with friends.

  • 3/5 Zeina Abou A. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice place to spend a Saturday morning and there are plenty of restaurants and bars around

  • 5/5 Nikolett G. 1 year ago on Google
    Cool flea market, with great nearby cafes

  • 5/5 Adrian C. 1 year ago on Google
    Really cool and chilled out park. You can sit in the grass, play some tunes, smoke, dri k, whatever you want to do. People there are super chill and their main activity is chilling. I recommend this park for anyone wanting to chill in the grass in the middle of Berlin.

  • 4/5 sara s. 1 year ago on Google
    A crowded, international, random flea market experience on Sundays and food market on Saturdays. Great kids play ground and lovely interior green space to sit and people watch.

  • 4/5 Hannah W. 1 year ago on Google
    Large Saturday market with lots of local food vendors and delicious meal options. Went to the dumpling cart and had a €5 plate with yummy potato dumplings, would recommend. Sundays have a large flea market with many vendors. The prices are quite high with a largely curated feel, but still many good items. The park itself includes a playground but no washrooms nor fountains, and not much shade aside from some trees on the edges of the park. Would recommend if you happen to be in the area, but not going out of your way to come visit.

  • 3/5 Mikołaj R. 2 years ago on Google
    Extremely overrated. Sunday market is nice and cosy, the vibe is quite authentic but it looks like people are coming here just because it's hip. Mediocre restaurants around the square complete the impression that this is not a place that should be rated 4 or 5 stars. Berlin has way more to offer.

  • 5/5 Rick D. 1 year ago on Google
    I haven't been to Berlin for a long time. And I really enjoyed it. Boxhagener Platz is a chill environment to enjoy beers from a local shop in summer. I like it.

  • 5/5 Lucas M. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a fun time strolling around this flea market that runs all day Sunday. A mix of old and new stuff, with lots of clothes, furniture, vinyl, ornaments... There did not seem to be much room for haggling though.

  • 5/5 Alex G. 1 year ago on Google
    Perhaps this square is not very remarkable from an architectural point of view, although there are many different bars, cafes and restaurants in the area. Locals definitely love this place. The atmosphere of this square is very reflective of the vibrant Berlin.

  • 3/5 Sharon H. 1 year ago on Google
    This stalwart market is looking pretty 'tired'. Far fewer quality vintage stalls and lots more second hand clothes, than when I last visited in 2019. I'm sure there are bargains to be had, but be prepared to sift through lots of trash to find your treasure 😊

  • 5/5 N M. 1 year ago on Google
    Your perfect summer hangout place in this neighborhood! You can find kids cooling off at the water fountain, dogs running around, families lounging... All in all a good vibe. Food is not a problem because you get to choose from a variety of pop ups around the park and have the option of cafes and restaurants too.

  • 4/5 Connor B. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice flea market with a lot of old furniture, books, clothes and records. No coffee to go or anything, so you'll need to get that from a coffee place nearby.

  • 2/5 Gary P. 2 years ago on Google
    I suppose the urban planner in this instance was going for bohemian charm, but in reality they were widely off the mark. Abhorrent. Nightmarish. Nonetheless, the market is a good place to find a decent typewriter.
