On the western shore of Lake Weißensee in Weißensee, Ormos by Milchhäuschen sits as a sun-drenched café with a Greek soul. The expansive lakeside terrace, the bright glass pavilion, and a menu ranging from mezze to homemade cake make this place a sun café with true lido charm.

Ormos by Milchhäuschen: Greek Sunshine Café right by the Lake

Anyone looking for a sun café with a view in Berlin will sooner or later end up at Lake Weißensee. Located directly on the western shore of Lake Weißensee, Ormos by Milchhäuschen offers a mix of cake and ice cream specialties as well as a large selection of warm dishes, mainly originating from Greek cuisine. The café was transformed from a former milk house into a stylish glass pavilion with cheerful blue and yellow decor. Anyone arriving here on a sunny day immediately understands why the tables on the terrace are occupied early.

This special place has been modernized with loving attention to detail, without losing its charm. The result is a restaurant that reinterprets Greek cuisine: fresh, creative, and with an eye for the essentials. Where German cuisine once attracted guests, today you’ll find a modern interpretation of Greek dishes. High-quality ingredients, authentic flavors, and an open house feeling make Ormos a place for encounters.

Sun Terrace, Mezze and Lake View

The heart of the café beats outdoors. During the warmer months, the large terrace directly by the water invites you to relax. The interior, with its generously designed windows offering a lake view, is also available to visitors regardless of the season. The terrace is open from Easter to October. Thus, Ormos is one of the few Berlin Sunshine Cafés that doesn’t completely forgo the lake view even in winter.

The menu offers everything a sunny café visit needs. Freshly prepared specialties, selected wines, and creative cocktails can be enjoyed in a relaxed atmosphere right by the water. The traditional lakeside venue also offers Greek specialties and a fantastic view across the lake towards Strandbad Weißensee. Those who come early in the morning enjoy breakfast with cappuccino and a lake view. Those who stay in the evening get the sunset over the water as an extra. That’s how a Sunshine Café in Berlin works.
