Exciting, gritty, artistic, ever-changing, and multicultural, Kreuzberg has found the spotlight in recent years and its restaurant scene has caught up, too. You won’t find glitz and glamour here, but rather spectacular cuisine in what might first appear to be a shabby café or a comfy local hangout.
Within view (and earshot) of the elevated U1 line, Café Morgenland is a relatively unremarkable neighborhood haunt on weekdays but on weekends it devotes an entire room to the extremely popular brunch buffet, which means table space can be scarce. The Turkish-inspired dishes (an ode to the home country of many a Kreuzberg native) are a delicious alternative to the more traditional brunches served elsewhere in Berlin.
