Cool kids Berlin tips
Yogagang team went to Berlin for two days, and we explored a lot. In two days, we went for 3 workouts, ate 7 pizzas, ate at least 30 cakes, and drank few dozen liters of coffee.
These are our top picks for food, shops, coffee, and workouts!
Food 🥑🥞🥥🍕
Breakfast:
Father Carpenather
A coffee and breakfast spot in the courtyard in the heart of Mitte. You can enjoy a delicious breakfast and then go right to the Lululemon store right across the street to buy some leggings!
Do not forget to make a reservation for this one.
YG TIP: Avocado toast with extra eggs 🥑
Silo Coffee
For a big brunch after some workout, Silo is the way to go.
This Cafe is located in Friedrichshain. It is super cozy and has a huge brunch solution – this is more hearty, not that healthy, brunch.
YG TIP: Silo Breakfast 🍳
Dictrikt Coffee
This one is also almost in the city center and might b be one of the best brunch spots in Berlin. The menu has everything from very healthy options to some delicious French Toast.
YG TIP: Overnight Oats. 🍯
Anneleis Berlin
King and Queen of all brunch spots. You have to get breakfast and preferably lunch as well here. It is located in Kreuzberg.
YG TIP: The best buttermilk pancakes ever 🥞
For Coffee and Pastries 🍩☕️🍰
The Barn Berlin
Must for a coffee when in Berlin. The Barn has many locations all through the city. Oatmilk cappuccino or their famous V60, you can’t go wrong here.
YG TIP: Get a bag of their coffee beans. ☕️
SOFI Bakery
A slight Nordic-like bakery in Mitte. Wide selection of sweet and salty pastries, sandwiches, natural wines, and filtered coffee. This is a very local spot and a must-visit.
YG TIP: Danish Pastry 🥮
Five Elephant Coffee and Cake
Like The Barn, this one has more locations around the city. Five elephants are famous for their one and only cheesecake, which is just the perfect balance of creamy, tangy, and sweet.
YG TIP: The Cheesecake 🍰
Zeit fur Brot
A bakery that has various locations around Berlin. Also, perhaps the only place that opens before 8 am, so perfect for a pre-workout coffee. But this bakery is most well-known for its cinnamon rolls.
YG TIP: Any Delicious Roll they currently have 🍞
For Lunch and Dinner 🍕🥙🥗
Daluma
A perfect healthy lunch spot. Well-balanced salad options as well as gluten-free pasta and poke bowls, anyone can pick their favorite. Also, get some fresh juice and healthy dessert when you are there.
YG TIP: Avocado salad with extra salmon and Run Forest juice 🥑🥬
Standard Pizza Berlin
This pizza is a must, most likely one of the best pizzas you will try in your life. Also, they have a great selection of natural wines. This place is usually very packed, so we recommend coming early or making a reservation.
YG TIP: Truffle pizza, Bresaola, and Orange wine 🍕
Otto Berlin
Otto focuses on local and seasonal ingredients. Get anything they have on the lunch menu, and we promise it will be extraordinary!
YG TIP: Literally everything 🧆🥘
Shops 👗👙👛💍
Do you read me 📚
A very well-curated book and magazine shop that is definitely a must-visit, even if you wouldn’t buy anything.
Side by side store
Most likely one of the best vintage stores in Berlin, again very curated. You will find brands like Acne, Prada, or Miu Miu for excellent prices.
The Store X Berlin
Soho House has a concept store with various brands. Mostly very high-end. You will also find magazines and skincare in there. We would recommend exploring this store even tho you might not buy anything.
Others: Voo Store, Lululemon, Aesop, Diptique, Le Labo, Acne Studios,
Workout 🚴♀️🧘♀️🏋️♀️
Barrys Bootcamp
For sure the best training in Berlin. The coolest gym, fantastic pre, and post-workout drinks and snacks, but mainly the crazy workout that takes place in the iconic Red Room. The combination of running on the treadmill and strength training using weights is so fun and so killer; you just can’t miss this one.
Becycle
A very cool, super modern studio in Mitte. Mostly known for their cycle classes, but also offering Yoga, Boxing HIIT, and Barre. The cycling class is a bit different here. You mainly focus on high-speed, high resistance intervals.
Ride.Bln
This studio is the classic dancing soul cycle we all know and love. Super fun playlist, friendly staff, and a great ride!
These are just a few Yogagang approved spots in Berlin. Definitely let us know if you know other great places that we can’t miss next time we go to Berlin, guys.
