    Good coffee, they have own roastery there. Food was good, we ate eggs Benedict. Terrace seats need to be renewed.

    Friendly and caring staff, delicious food, like really-really good, I had to compliment the chef. Coffee is also great. Conveniently there is a bottle of water on each table, and they will bring you the next one, when notice you are almost done with geh first. The space is well organized, lots of tables, enough space in between, music is not too loud, you can come with your laptop, small or big group of friends, the place is just accommodating.

    Visited here with a few friends when we needed to pass time to wait for someone and we have some coffee. I had a ginger drink which was really good. My overall impression of the shop is that it can be a lot better. I don’t feel the potential is fully maximized. All the cups that were served on our table were not so clean. I had to clean them over by myself with tissue papers. So I reduced the ratings due to this. The location is prime and sitting areas are great, but the service can definitely be better.

    Please tell the chef the September special blew my mind!!! Most inventive and beautifully put together breakfast I've had in a long time. With the perfectly poached egg, fennel, toasted hazelnut, charred broccolini and I can't remember what other goodness.. wow! My husband's almond croissant was fresh, not overly sweet and the best he said he's ever had. Coffee also great, could have been hotter for my liking. Friendly service and very hipster location.

    A cafe for coffee that is really hipster. The roast is delicious, and we had a wonderful brunch, but the eggplant was the highlight of the meal. In addition to that, give the rice porridge a shot. I have tried a lot of other cold brews, but this one is by far the best. Additionally, the personnel was friendly and kind. In general, it's a pleasant adventure to have.

    Came here for a quick coffee and ended up staying for the brilliant 24,24€ deal for two lunches and two coffees. The coffee tastes brilliant and my miso cabbage dish was light and flavourful. Definitely recommend for brunch or lunch!

    Surprisingly calm while veing central. There is inside and outside seating available. The staff is very laid back and friendly. Coffee is freshly roasted and tasty! Brunch is also delicious and it was quite calm when we were there.

    This is a good place to work remotely. They have a long table in a separate area where one can. The coffee and the food is good. The service could definitely be better. The staff always looks busy and not much attentive.

    We had high expectations but were quite disappointed. The pastry didn’t taste fresh at all (very dry), the service was slow and I got coffee with the wrong milk. The coffee itself was a bit bitter. I liked the fact that you can get a bottle of water for your table and that card payment is preferred.

    I ordered Eggs Benedict. What I got was two ok poached eggs with a tasteless hollandaise sauce accompanied by a very watery + under-salt side of oyster mushroom. The only good thing in this plate was the polenta. Coffee was meh. Service was slow.

    very spacious cafe, so good to have some great specialty coffee and amazing sourdough breads before the museum island tour. I bought many of their coffee beans. Warning, portion is very big, for me at least.

    The place was nice , breakfast was even its small but delicious 😋, the flat white was under my expectations, I told the barista about it there’s a bitter taste 👅 but I feel he don’t care , maybe they have to be more careful about customer service .

  • 5/5 Feli x B. 2 months ago on Google • 103 reviews New
    two different speciality coffee beans 🫘 to choose from (for milk based coffees). The „Wild at heart“ (house standard bean) and another one which is normally more fancy 👒. If you pay attention to milk 🐄, the used Brodowin milk is Demeter (organic), not homogenized and one of the best.

    Wir waren morgens zum Frühstück da. Man muss selbst an der Theke bestellen und es gibt die Karte nur per QR-Code online. Kaffee war irgendwie komisch sauer und die Hafermilch hat geflockt (s. Bild, haben netterweise den Kaffee neu gemacht bekommen, aber auch beim zweiten Kaffee mit extra aufgewärmter Milch bestand das Problem). Essen an sich war sehr lecker - es hat aber eine Weile gedauert, bis wir es überhaupt erst bekommen haben (anscheinend hat nur eine Person in der Küche gearbeitet, von daher ist das auch verständlich, aber nicht ideal). Außerdem waren die Portionen für den Preis ziemlich klein - besonders den einen (!) Pancake mit Toppings für 15,50€ fanden wir sehr überteuert. Drinnen war es außerdem relativ kalt und die Bänke waren sehr kurz, sodass man als Gruppe nicht super bequem saß. Alles in allem also okay, aber unserer Meinung nach das Geld nicht wert.

    Good and friendly place. But the HIGHLIGHT was the Bombay Sandwich. OMG! One of the best things I've EVER eaten. Period. Deserves to be on the menu of a Michelin star place. Schönes Café. Essen(Sandwich)war überraschend richtig gut.

    You get a bottle of free water as u get seated which is amazing. The chai latte was amazing!! Its just a little hectic in there and loud. But i think that was just cause a lot of children were running around. The staff was really nice and still tried to keep calm even through it was stressful which radiated great atmosphere.

    Der Kaffee war lecker, jedoch halbwegs klein für einen Cappucino. Die Eggs Benedict sind mit 14€ +3,5€ für 3 Scheiben Speck schon recht teuer. Lecker waren sie trotzdem. Der Service ist gemütlich unterwegs.

    Sandwiched between the train tracks and Kaufland, this charming cafe offers a small, yet above average selection of coffee and food. I enjoyed the bacon Benedict, the bacon weren’t too salty. Coffee is good but a wee bit too small. Service is excellent

    I took the late art course in English and Cesar was absolutely amazing. From theory, practice, and having fun, he nails it! Thank you Cesar!

    It was alright. Staff was nice but food was just okay. Nice presentation. Delicious orange juice.

  • 3/5 Linda H. 5 months ago on Google
    The milk foam has weird big bubbles on it (compare to other milk foam I had) and faded quite quickly. I assume the temperature of milk went somehow wrong. For me it is an okay coffee , I expected more. Thats why I gave it a 3.

    Yummy and nice! Cool place for breakfast and lunch!

    Atmosphere: Chill and Third Wave coffee atmosphere--without being pretentious or snobby. Ample indoor and outdoor seating, clean and minimalist. Decent playlist of retro and indie music. Edit 18.09.21: no more music strangely. Coffee: Fantastic. Clearly the roasts are fresh (no more than a couple weeks) as some of the fruitier notes and volatiles that normally breakdown and disappear as a result of oxidation are present and delicious from the delicate to the pungent. I ordered the Flat White, then I ordered another Flat White lolz. Food: The proper kitchen is open on Saturdays & Sundays only--but oh is it worth it! The eggs benedict were perfect in taste, texture, and portion size. It left me lipsmacked and satiated, but not overly full and slow. The toast was the perfect balance of toastiness and breadiness so it held up to the fork and knife abuse and egg yoke, but was still spongy enough to absorb said egg yoke. Hollandaise sauce wasn't overpowering, but rather just delicately complemented the meal. Three strips of bacon balances the richness with salty savory goodness that ensures you forgot how much beer or booze you had the night before. The perfect brunch. Edit 18.9.21: they've swapped out the bread/brot used in the eggs benedict making it a chore to eat (sometime in July or August). It's not nearly as good as it used to be on these last few visits. It's a hard crostini or bruschetta bread that really begs for a steak knife to cut through as the provided butter knife struggles to get through the tough/hard crust and bread alike. The bread no longer absorbs the hollandaise or yoke like the previous bread did, so you end up sopping the sauce and yoke with the bacon strips if you ordered bacon. Unfortunately, I can no longer recommend the eggs benedict here on the list of items for brunch. The food is still prepared with care, and the flavors are still pretty great. But brunch should be relaxing and not a chore or challenge unless you're into that kind of thing. Productivity: Ample indoor and outdoor seating with free wifi. Other notes: it's a popular spot on weekends, so be prepared to wait up to 15 minutes for a table (without question, it is worth the wait!) Also, they accept debit cards here which is refreshing in Berlin where most places are cash-only.

    We really enjoyed our time here. We had the scrambled eggs and salmon and the summer breakfast, pictured below. We also had an espresso and the English Breakfast tea that they have. All of it was spectacular! It reminded us of home, as Portland natives — it felt like a trendy neighborhood bistro back there. Highly recommended and a great spot for breakfast or brunch.

  • 3/5 Michelle K. 10 months ago on Google
    Das Essen und der Kaffee war geschmacklich gut, aber die Preise sind sehr teuer. Außerdem ließ der Service zu wünschen übrig, wir waren über zwei Stunden dort und wurden nur einmal nach Essens- und Getränkewünsche gefragt.

  • 5/5 Dimi 8 months ago on Google
    A place to go for good coffee. They sell beans and serve coffee here, there are usually a couple of options for espresso based drinks, and a batch filter option. Desserts are decent as well.

  • 5/5 Lucia D. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing food, location, and the staff is a delight. Super attentive and friendly. I worked here for a few hours before catching my train and was super well taken care of. Thanks for having us :)

  • 5/5 Derya K. 10 months ago on Google
    Speciality Coffee mit Flat White und co. direkt am Alex. Auch gute Tees vorhanden. Das Gebäck war super, freundliche Bedienung, saubere sanitäre Anlagen. Sitzeplätze draussen sind vorhanden. Kartenzahlung möglich, so auch Take Away. Empfehlenswert.

  • 5/5 Jonathan D. 2 years ago on Google
    Super cute place next to Alexanderplatz. The food is original and extremely tasty. The coffee is super good and the drinks are excellent (homemade soda is my to go choice). The ambiance is quiet and modern, and the staff is super friendly and responsive. Great spot for a late breakfast or a lunch!

  • 5/5 ellie 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent for brunch + work. They have a dedicated conference room for this purpose that has powerpoints under the bar tables with a huge work table in the middle. I was very productive that day. Cauliflower dish I had was amazing too.

  • 1/5 Lora S. 2 years ago on Google
    Coffee was fine, cake was fine. Service below average. The one star is because there is a policy that doesn’t allow you to use your laptop on a weekend - whatever. It would be more fair to limit time per table than telling people how to spend their chill time. But hey. Also, the smell was terrible the whole time as their kitchen just kept burning something the whole time.

  • 5/5 Giacomo L. 2 years ago on Google
    Great coffee, service and location! I am a fan of 19grams since there was only one location in Berlin! This is definitely the best coffee place, for me. The food choice is also really good. Fresh ingredients and tasty receipts. You can have some small sweets, like brownies or similar, or you cam go with a breakfast / brunch plate to Hase something more substantial. The coffee is roasted in house and tastes amazing. There is also a laptop space and WiFi decently fast. Definitely suggested!

  • 5/5 Enrico B. 1 year ago on Google
    19grams serves one of the best coffees in Berlin they are a cafe / coffee roastery which means they roast there own coffee in-house. They are similar to an Australian style cafe place,which means they also server nice brunch food, not like most other coffee roaster places in Germany that just serve good coffee but no food. Here you can actually go for Brunch and have a Egg Benedict or other yummy dishes. I can only highly recommend them.

  • 5/5 avichai I. 1 year ago on Google
    Great service, a bit slowly compared to Sunday. The meals were huge, delicious and satisfying. Fair prices. Nice and quiet environment.

  • 5/5 Erman E. 2 years ago on Google
    Very friendly place, they know English very well, which is nice as a tourist. Breakfast and brownies were amazingly tasty, and the coffee is very good.

  • 5/5 Barbara S. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful place for coffee and breakfast. Food was awesome and surprisingly. Very friendly service. Good location.

  • 5/5 Jorge Pereira (. 2 years ago on Google
    After reading the reviews complain about the service was a bit afraid but the waiters were very nice even if it seemed they were few and try to hurry all the time but they were always nice :) the recommended filter cofee was pretty good as well and the cake also was good

  • 5/5 Linda R. 1 year ago on Google
    Greatly located, this is one of the best places for brunch or just having a coffee around Alexanderplatz. Bakery is also good.

  • 5/5 alma t. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is really nice. The coffee is awesome and very well prepared. Staff is super nice. You can buy up to 15 different blenda off coffe.

  • 5/5 Alena K. 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely the best 3rd wave coffee in Berlin and outstanding interior which always has a free spot for you. The food has been pretty average, but changed for better in their last menu.

  • 3/5 Bo Az (Borderless B. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice hipster spot Really Great coffee Mostly nice service But Honestly, All quite too expansive for Berlin P.s - the picture is of a “big” breakfast (13€), which could definitely be bigger (or cheaper)

  • 5/5 Jerome R. 1 year ago on Google
    As the slogan suggested, the coffee was bloody good. Along with the food and friendly service
