Have Brekkie with Locals


Galao A Pastelaria

Two or three steps lead to the little Portugal of Berlin. Simply order a Galao coffee and choose from the variety of toasts (personal fave: Tuna-sandwich – to die for) and Pastel de Nata at the counter and take a seat on the steps or the green stairs to enjoy the early morning mood of the city. Locals will definitely be there!

Dine with Locals


Grill Royal

It’s showtime from the moment you step into Grill Royal. This aesthetic restaurant is one of our all time favourites. For anyone who loves meat and good wine, for everyone who loves Art (Keith Farquhar, Marc Handforth) – Grill is the place to go. The filet mignon is truly delicious! For veggies we recommend the artichoke. At Grill Royal you can eat, drink and you might even end up celebrating with other guests of the restaurant.

Location: Friedrichstraße 105b, 10117 Berlin

Creative, german dishes that are made from local groceries are what you will find at the Lokal. The menu may be small but it’s excellent. Many locals come here to enjoy the food and water from Himalaya.

Mozzarella Bar & Bottega

A place to meet your friends during evening hours. Every visit should start with an order of Aperol Spritz. The menu consists of authentic Italian specialties, for example an amazing antipasti plate with products from Italy and of course different pasta variations. You should definitely order a burata with mortadella or Caponata! Traditionally, ever evening at Mozzarella Bar ends with limoncello…

Kiez Bar Night


Hackbarths

There’s nothing fancy about this place and yet it’s one of the best traditional Beerbars in the neighbourhood. It feels like your visiting Berlin 20 years ago. It's not surprising that locals love it! If this place is ever too crowded, one can simply sit on a wall across the street with a cold beer in your hands - Cheers!
