Hi Vorian – Thank you for your review. We’re very happy you enjoyed our Sunday brunch. To add a little situational context, we do remember your visit. You arrived with a friend and you both ate ravenously (proof our cook threw down this weekend!). After some time, a third friend joined you, but only wanted to order a drink. Here’s where things begin to go sideways. We adore our customers and work hard to ensure each visit to our café is better than the last. And, yes - we do have rules. These rules are clearly posted outside, before one enters the café, and inside. Our rules are meant to cultivate an environment of respect for our lovey space, fantastic customers and amazing staff. On Sunday’s, due to the high volume of enthusiastic and hungry Berliners we serve, we require (on that one day!) all our patrons participate in the brunch. That’s it. We don’t serve re-heated, mediocre food, trick customers with small plates or limit the amount of time one can spend at buffet. Everything is fresh, bright, organic and delicious. Sit, eat and enjoy our beautiful café for one hour or four! We have no agenda. We only ask that our patrons support us as we support them. Simple, right? In good health, The Team at Ataya Cafe
