Typical coffee shop with comfortable chairs in & outdoor. It's a rainy-weather day, so cooping inside with warm coffee & out-looking the (big glass) window is an lovely option. While the background music plays soft acoustic version of some well-known music (classy!)...it's my favorite spot for now :) It also service small & healthy kind of sandwiches. Not open on Sundays.

Wow wow and WOW! This Café in beautiful Zehlendorf is an absolute insider. It's 1,5 km from my home…read moreand I can't believe I haven't discovered it up to this day. When I first came in I was absolutely stunned by the nice and cozy flair. When I spotted the display of the deliciously looking cakes I immediately started taking pictures. The lady working at the Café seemed a bit confused, rather distanced at first (because of that reserved attitude and her lovely southern accent I was guessing she must be from Baden-Württemberg), almost worried that something was/is wrong. Quite the contrary, I was in love with this place from the first moment on! So I sat down on a very cute little table right next to the window and ordered one of the 2 soups of the day-I took the red lentils with coconut although the red beet soup with orange and ginger sounded just as good! It didn't take very long and the soup was ready to be eaten... well no... I had to take pictures first, of course! Not only the lovely presentation on a wooden board but also the fact that it was served with bread (super fresh and delicious) & butter decorated with parsley screamed for being photographed! And now the taste-very good, even a bit spicy which I love, simply delicious! Besides that I was very much enjoying the atmosphere-the white furniture, the beautiful pictures on the walls, the book shelves and magazines, fresh flowers on each table and not to forget ALL these treats behind the counter! Although the Café was well attended from when I got there, more and more people came and I noticed that a lot of them must be regular guests as the waitress (I'm assuming she's the owner of Milch&Honig, too) was talking to many in a very familiar way, she even knew their preferences offering either special cakes or varieties of lactose, gluten free, vegan. Very impressive! So as I sat there watching and observing, I couldn't get my eyes off the yummy looking cakes and each time I realized a new one that had just been brought out of the kitchen. What a tough decision but I finally decided on the cheesecake and OMG let me tell you-it was fantastic-so creamy, so tender, so fluffy, sooooooo good-I especially loved that it wasn't too sweet! It even had a bit of a lemon taste as well-hence I'm in love even more and know I'll be back here very very soon! Thank you so much for such amazing delights! BTW-the lady is from Baden ;-)

We went there a Sunday morning for having breakfast. It's was a very good idea : a white and blue…read moreambience in a north seaside like. We had two different breakfast salty with salami and ham and fruity with an instant made fresh fruits salad. Everything nicely presented in white porcelain The bread is organic, and the croissants au beurre tasted really French. I know that : I am French ! So, it's the ideal place for a lazy evening breakfast or a nice afternoon tea time.

Always looking for great places to treat my ice-cream addiction I spotted this during my summer break in Berlin. Ever since we tried their ice cream up and down the menu for take a way or stayed and enjoyed ice and coffee in the sun. They offer all classy ice cream flavors as chocolate, hazelnut and strawberries, different fruit sorbet and many lactose-free flavors, beside this they do some special flavors as marzipan poppy seed, Ginger-Lime and Raspberry-chocolate chip which totally made me love this place because they add real chocolate pieces into the ice cream ;) The average price is 90cents a scoop which is totally reasonable for this delicious self-made ice cream, and good new they are open all year long!!!

First off, I have to give this place props because the bakery section looks amazing! Of course, I…read moream not certain if the desserts and baked goods at LebensArt are vegan-friendly, but they do indeed look delicious. As for the cafe itself, I was seriously underwhelmed. The menu excited me at first because of a coconut-curry vegetable dish for €5.50. Considering the lack of options in the area that catered to my eating habits, I was surprised to find a vegan offering on the specials page. Unfortunately, it tasted like a microwaveable meal had been heated up and dumped on my plate, then slathered with tasteless sauce. Yeah, it was that bad. The vegetables were the best part, but the sauce was not that good and the rice was also lacking in any flavor. The good part is that the service was quick, the meal was hot, and the food was filling. But other than that, not much I can say. The inside of the restaurant is big, however, with lots of seating in various sections. There are tables out front and it looks like there is a patio out back, which could be nice in warm weather. But again, nothing in particular on this menu that would draw me to the place.

Uh... I'm not really sure why the other English reviewer on here ordered "a coconut-curry vegetable…read moredish" at a German Conditorei. Did she really expect to get something decent? ... Anyways: this is the kind of place you should only order things like Kaffee und Kuchen. They have decent Flammkuchen if you're looking for a non-sweet snack, but mostly I just order coffee (all of the coffee drinks are decent) and the amazing French mousse cake. The tea is also quite good (loose leaves from what I recall -- I don't drink much tea but they have a big loose tea selection). The atmosphere is very nice in the summer under the awning on the terrace out back, especially on the hot days when everywhere else feels like an oven inside. On cold days in the winter, the inside is warm and cozy, candles on the tables and fire burning. If you have kids you'll be eternally grateful for the sandbox with playground and toys out back on nice days, especially because the back terrace is enclosed and they can't run away from you. There's also a play corner inside on the cold days. For those with very small ones, they have loads of high chairs and a big bathroom with changing table.
