FOOD & DRINKS
Pluto Berlin - A charming wine bar by Vadim Otto Ursus and Sören Zuppke. Cosy, stylish, and inviting, with an incredible food selection.
Pinci - The new cool kids’ hangout. This former Kiez supermarket has been transformed into an Italian day bar offering delicious sandwiches and other simple yet yummy dishes. The calm space, perfect for reading the paper during the day, shifts into a vibrant atmosphere in the evening.
Basta Bar - Located in Casa Camper in Berlin-Mitte, serving all-day comfort food, reimagined classics, and warm, easy-going hospitality. Swing by for scrambled eggs in the morning, a boozy brunch at the weekend, or cocktails after 10 PM.
