Café, restaurant, and bar under one roof: The auszeit in Berlin-Pankow Niederschönhausen lives up to its name. Just a few steps from the Palace Park, it entices with a sunny outdoor terrace, a lavish breakfast selection of organic products, and a genuine neighborhood atmosphere far from the Prenzlauer Berg hustle and bustle.
auszeit: Sunny Café with Soul in Northern Berlin
Anyone looking for a sunny café spot in Berlin that isn’t overrun by tourists should know Hermann-Hesse-Straße in Pankow. The auszeit started in 2007 in the Sprengelkiez in Wedding and has been located in Pankow Niederschönhausen since April 2016. Just 400 meters from the Palace Park and next to the “Blauer Stern” cinema, the team welcomes both familiar and new faces daily. So, if you’re looking for a sunny café in Berlin with true neighborhood character, this is the place to be.
White wooden tables in front of the café create a true summer feeling in the sun. Furthermore, the terrace is not just some roadside strip, but a quiet place to breathe deeply. It’s pleasant to sit outside, as hardly any traffic noise spoils the enjoyment.
Breakfast, Weekly Menu, and More
The breakfast selection at auszeit Berlin is considered one of the best in the northeast of the city. The breakfast menu focuses on organic products: everything from porridge and omelets to the Berlin cold cut platter with scrambled eggs, bacon, various sausages, fruit, and a bread basket is available. This makes auszeit a true hotspot for breakfast fans and brunch enthusiasts in Pankow.
The weekly menu changes regularly, always remains seasonal, and is always excellent. The daily offerings include homemade pasta dishes, fresh salads with house dressings, organic burgers, and changing soups. Additionally, there are delicious cakes, great breakfast creations, espresso specialties, freshly squeezed mixed juices, homemade lemonades, and good wines. The auszeit is open daily from 9 AM to 12 AM. So, if you want to spend an entire day in the sun, from your first coffee to your last cocktail, you’ll find your spot here. Reservations are especially recommended on weekends.
