I just got a tasty latte and a stale chocolate croissant for 70% of Berlins current minimum wage (brutto!). No wonder much of the Berlin I know scoffs at English-speakers. Bonanza keeps it classist read more

A good place to study and be productive. Very spacious, open and lots of natural lighting and a lot of tables. Wifi is great here. The coffee is roasted on site I believe. There are no sandwiches here only small bits and pieces of baked goods, so I guess make sure you are not starving when you come here. The cafe is sort of divided in two sections. Right when you walk in, to the left hand side you have this large table with lots of charging stations and lights in the centre, where you sit and share the table with everyone. Kind of reminds me of one of those study tables in a library. To your right there are small tables more suitable for one to two person per table for conversations or reading. It is a bit of a walk from the u Bahn station, which is the only reason stopping me from visiting this place more frequently. read more

Love their famous Frap. Usually I'm not a fan of coffee + ice cream. But somehow the balance of that drink really makes me feel good. Spacious environment. read more

Beautiful boutique coffee bar tucked away in an old industrial complex. The building is absolutely gorgeous, and has been beautifully restored with heavy doses of wood, glass, and exposed brick. The coffee itself is also terrific, with a rotating menu of coffees from around the world. A cup of filter coffee costs 3€, but for 5€ you can fill your cup as many times as you want. The pastries are very good, too. There is also a very useful work table that seats up to 6 people, with power outlets for free. The international staff is friendly and helpful, and enjoy helping customers discover great coffee. read more

Bonanza - Lovely interior. - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Berlin, BE

Rus and I travel the globe looking for great coffee and great coffee houses and Bonanza is definitely one of the best. Everything from the location, to the staff, to their amazing coffees are A+. We ordered a cappuccino, a drip coffee, and some croissants. After we sat down, they let me know that my drip was going to be a while, so they treated me to a cup of another blend on the house. It was really good, too. I'm talking smooth and not bitter at all. This is some of the best coffee I've ever tasted and it's served in beautiful ceramic drink ware. What a nice place to settle up for the afternoon. On our way out, I went up to pay our bill and purchase another cup of coffee to go, and they treated us to that one, too! It was nice to be on the receiving end of such great service. Rus and I would definitely visit this place again. Oh, and the croissants were good but definitely on the thick and doughy side. Pro Tip: If you find yourself walking by the address and not finding it, head back near the little farm and look for signs for Bonanza. read more

Very rude when busy. They asked us to wait which was fine and we asked if we should wait outside and they got really short with us and actually yelled at us. read more

I'm writing this review from a Starbucks, a mercifully democratic and unpretentious place to get coffee. As much as I prefer to support small and local businesses over massive global chains and corporations, places like this give the words "local" and "independent" a bad name. We sat down after paying for our coffees to do a little work and were immediately told we were in a "no laptop zone." I guess paying 5 euros for a cup of coffee doesn't grant you permission to use a computer at a table, but it's apparently okay to stare at your phone or post Instagram pictures of your coffee all you want. It's not as if we took up a table without paying, or sat for hours after only buying something small and keeping others from sitting. I can't think of any reason other than being a painfully self-important place pretending to offer something authentic while being exactly like every other third-wave coffee house in any other major city in the world. Back in Starbucks, where the coffee house doesn't boast about roasting its coffee on some "vintage" pot, but does actually offer an open, democratic space that serves humans, not hipsters. read more

Very pretentious over priced place. When I walked in everyone was sitting at one table and the rest of space was open. Strange, but I ordered anyways. I wanted just regular coffee with milk on the side but they told me they wouldn't give me milk on the side because it wasn't recommended with this kind of coffee. I didn't spend over €10 so I had to pay with cash. They only had two options of pastries. After spending all my cash on a pastry and a type of coffee I didn't really want I took a seat and started to work on my laptop. After two minutes the barista came over to me and told me I was in the "laptop free zone." There were no spaces in the very crowded and small "laptop zone." Huge waste of time and money. read more

I ordered a filter coffee and sat down to read. I look up after 30 minutes and had not gotten my coffee. When I told them about they didn't apologize; instead, I was told to tell them earlier next time. Seriously?!?! There won't be a next time! And everyone I know is gonna hear about Bonanza's horrible service. read more

The coffee is nice, all right. The selection of pastry is quite sparing, maybe 5 different items. Looks like a posh version of a hipster coffee shop from SF. With rather steep prices. What isn't cool is that they won't even let you sit for an hour to get work done on an iPad. After about 30 minutes the waitress shooed several customers to move to make space. Except that the place wasn't even packed. Avoid! read more

At the risk of sounding extreme(ly cliche), I will say that this is one of my favorite coffee shops... internationally. From its invitingly open space to its phenomenal coffee, Bonanza does an amazing job at fostering a whole experience. For this reason, I recommend this place when you have enough time to enjoy it. Given that even the filter coffee is made freshly to order, you should expect a wait. We did the coffee tasting, which offers a diverse (unlimited) sample of three coffees for just under six euros. Definitely do not rush this, the coffees each have very different characters and complexities, and the baristas give you all the time you want to indulge. Their selection is likely to have something for everyone, given that there was a large range in flavor notes and acidity. We tried a few of their beautifully presented pastries, of which the cardamom croissant stands out the most. The staff is very pleasant, which shouldn't be understated given that this is Berlin. We appreciated their descriptions during the sampling. The weather certainly helped (a nice fall day), which makes the space surrounding the cafe particularly beautiful because of the foliage. Regardless of where you're coming from in Berlin, this place is worth the trip. Come here in the fall if you can, but I bet that it can pick up your day no matter the weather outside. read more

A must visit in Berlin! Second branch of the legendary Bonanza Coffee Heroes in Prenzlauer Berg. Housed in a beautiful industrial brick building, with their roastery visible (but not visitable) behind the coffee shop. Top class coffee to taste, and beans of their own roasting to purchase for home. read more

Coffee is good but the food is amazing!!!!!! Must try the crossiants! You absolutely must. Will not regret it read more

It's not enough for businesses like this one to gentrify the city and make it unaffordable for most. But even when I did end up paying an outrageous 5 Euros for a cup of coffee (miss me with your talk about "small-batch" milk deliveries and "vintage" equipment) because I desperately needed to get some work done while my child was with my mother for a few hours--I apparently needed to have hipsters police where in the coffee shop I get to sit. (In English, of course, because "my German isn't quite good enough to explain to you that purchasing one of our overpriced beverages does not come with free choice of seat.") Are you trying to make some statement about digital minimalism and "personal connection"? Based on everyone in the room intently staring at their cellphone screens, I doubt it. So my guess is you really just can't have people linger too much, so you can afford the rent--which "locally owned small business" ventures like yours have driven up in the first place. Went to Starbucks instead. Ironically, Starbucks' corporate claim they're trying to create a place for community seems a lot more genuine than the business strategy of this neoliberal nightmare. read more

Very good coffee in Berlin. Perhaps the best I've had there. It's cool to see them sampling different beans in the back of the shop too, shows off the craft of brewing coffee. read more

A coffee freak brought me there and recommended me a coffee named "frap", which is something unique there and really worth a try. Here is more like a coffee workshop with a small production space behind the bar section, so it is also possible to buy their home baked beans. read more

My partner and I walked into this temple for coffee lovers and were greeted by a swift tasting of two brews of the day. A revelation in complex flavours with fruity overtones harboured in a single cup of coffee. We settled for a cup each and a danish - all of the highest quality. The staff is fantastic, the ambiance calm, the coffee the best we had for a long time. excellent place, total experience, total recommendation! read more

Best coffee in Berlin! Love this quiet coffee shop tucked away behind the road inside Bonanza's roastery. The pastries are delicious too!

Some of the best coffee and espresso I have had in Berlin. All of their staff are friendly hipsters that aren't pretentious. This location is large and industrial while their other location is small and cozy, best of both worlds read more

Hidden in old industrial buildings, this coffee shop has a great atmosphere and even better service.
