3 Minutes sur mer

Upmarket French bistro cuisine is served in 3 minutes here: On the menu are edible snails, Crémant-Gruyère cheese chitterlings, entrecôte and plenty of fish dishes to make it difficult for you to choose. It’s not only the French delicatessen, but also the spacious dining room with typically French paper serviettes laid out on the tables that makes this restaurant so inspiring. It won’t take long before all those (would-be) Francophiles at heart feel as if they really are only three minutes away from the (French) Mediterranean Sea.

Borchardt

The Borchardt near Gendarmenmarkt is a Berliner institution in which celebrities regularly meet. The world-class location, in culinary daring, does the splits between German and French cuisine, which impressively harmonises with the tasteful interior. The juicy Wiener Schnitzel counts as a highlight.

Bostich

It is the love of detail that makes Bostich in Ludwigkirchstraße something very special. The mix of designer pieces and old Berlin style has a timeless, informal feel. Admittedly, one is reminded a little of the 1920s in the capital, but instead of Berlin snark, the atmosphere here is one of warm hospitality.
