Grunewald

In Schöneberg, Taverna Ousia brings the tavern culture of rural Greece directly to Berlin: Mezedes instead of tapas, natural stone floors instead of restaurant design, and hospitality that feels like an evening in the village square.

In Grunewald, where Hubertusallee quietly winds through the villa district, this trattoria serves one of Berlin's crispiest stone oven pizzas. YVONNE Tuscany Restaurant & Pizzeria stands for uncompromising Tuscan hospitality: multiple international awards, with a team almost entirely from Italy.

Deep in the green, directly on the Lower Havel in Charlottenburg, lies Berlin's arguably oldest restaurant ship: the Alte Liebe. For over a century, this floating piece of Berlin history has defied the city noise and served hearty maritime cuisine with a view of the water.

The Locanda 12 Apostoli restaurant is located in a listed property on Lake Grunewald. In summer an idyllic summer garden, a beautiful beer garden and a forest playground lure many families to an excursion to Lake Grunewald.

The exclusive Schlosshotel in Grunewald offers relaxation in luxury, far away from the bustle of the metropolis.

For more than 30 years this cafe in the Art Nouveau style has been offering a giant variety of finest fancy cakes, tartes and pralinés.

In Grunewald, directly on Teufelssee in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, Berlin's oldest preserved waterworks is full of life: The Ökowerk Berlin combines nature conservation, environmental education and genuine outdoor experiences into an excursion destination that captivates children and families alike.

During the Easter holidays, Ökowerk offers a spring workshop for children aged 7 to 12.

A large sandy beach, shaded spots in a small grove and several small bathing spots in the Lieper Bucht open the view of the river Havel and the island Lindwerder.

Grunewald is home to Berlin's largest contiguous dog exercise area.
