The store is relatively small, but has everything you need. I think the whole organic food scene is still not super transparent and for me it all depends on the items I am getting. I generally like to buy organic fruits (especially when you eat the peal), but the ones I bought here sadly were all still pretty sour (except the apples). The staff was friendly though and the store very organized.

It's no secret that I love me a good Farmer's Market. This one is no exception…read more There are tons and tons of things to buy; my favourite is the produce stands. Compared to local shops, the fresh fruits and vegetables are much cheaper, and sometimes even better quality. A recent trip yielded avocados, pumpkin, and arugula, and that was a show of restraint. There's so much more to be had, including meats and cheeses, snacks from food stands, practical household items, fabrics and craft-y things, clothing and jewelry, and more. Check it! The one disadvantage is the tight quarters. I'm used to markets with rows and rows and plenty of space, and this one is just along the sidewalk. The side up against the water is particularly crowded, with stalls on either side, making it a bit of an annoyance to walk through all the people. The flow of the crowd is generally smooth, albeit slow-going, but every once in awhile you'll find the stallers, who stand directly in front of what you're interested in and spend five minutes discussing the pros and cons of buying it. If you know what you want to get, this is a perfect place to go. However, if you're looking for a leisurely experience spent strolling up and down the market, go somewhere else.

It's on a level similar to Bio Company, so naturally things are a bit pricier here, but sometimes you can find products that cost less than elsewhere. I also like the open floor-plan here. Whereas a lot of stores are small and cramped, they make good use of the space.

Best grocery in Berlin - I am a visitor from California used to the incredible Berkeley Bowl and…read moreRainbow Grocers and the many wonderful co-ops and organic grocery stores we have in the SF Bay. After visiting Berlin many times and shopping in many different bio-shops around the city (especially the Lichtenberg and Friedrichshain areas), Wurzelwerk is BY FAR the best grocery of all. There is the excellent selection -everything I need and none of the excess and bloat and advertising more expensive shops and commercial organic grocers push. Then there is the incredible staff - warm, friendly, with ethical values and really caring about food and customers. I don't speak any German but I have never, ever encountered any frustration or impatience when I ask for any help - quite the contrary, I am met with relaxed interest and effort to help, they take their time to really do a good job helping me find what I need, order it, or even learn about it (I was talking with one staff about why they should consider to carry nutritional yeast with B-12 added, for vegans). Wurzelwerk t is a co-op and I am happy to support these deserving workers and know my money is not going to a profit scheme. There is a real community and social change feel to the shop with many local organic peace environment and justice efforts being supported. The relaxed and kind atmosphere is immediately apparent whenever I arrive - nobody likes the chore and errand of shopping but I am lucky to live right around the corner and Wurzelwerk makes shopping easy and stress free, even the lighting in the shop is mild and not like the harsh fluorescent light you get in most stores. My friend and I love Wurzelwerk, she is a member and I would certainly be too if I spent more time in Berlin. I really encourage you to check it out, even if you live a little farther away and it's not the nearest bio-shop, because Wurzelwerk is so worth it.

So when I found out Dr. Pogo opened, I was thrilled. The Neukölln and Kreuzberg crowd don't have to travel too far to reach this place, and it's a collective, which is a good thing and worth supporting. We ended up visiting three weeks after the opening, so it's still relatively new and has the accompanying problems with streamlining the process, such as those working figuring out the computer system, etc., but nothing to complain about. The selection is good - it's smaller than Veganz and has not as many items, but there are still more vegan options than any given bio store... and the cheese selection is relatively impressive as well. Prices here are hit and miss. While I would not likely pay €8 for a small thing of vegan ice cream, the cheeses, cream cheese, etc., are moderately priced, and in some cases, less expensive than the Bio Company. There is also a bakery section with goods from Maja's Deli (who also offer catering) and one entire section is for things like cosmetics and other beauty products. All in all, I am pretty stoked on this place. Living in Berlin has taught me to either forego or make on my own many of the products I was used to in the states (products which are either not available here or too expensive for my tastes), but I will still come here for the occasional treat or when I really crave vegan cheese. Welcome to the neighborhood, Dr. Pogo! Here is hoping you stick around!

The shop is cute, and the idea of a collective vegan laden is refreshing. However, the people who…read morework there are rude and unfriendly. I live in the neighbourhood and was compelled to buy some things at dr. pogo several times a week. Never have the people working there been friendly. My boyfriend has the same impression. We decided to stop shopping there, and instead buy our things at Bioase44 around the corner. I'm also not for the whole attitude where everyone who's not a vegan is an awful or stupid person, so better for us to shop at a more welcoming place.
