fabulous

I've only been there once but will go as often as possible (it is a bit out of my way, but near the workplace). Friendly other guest, friendly owner and.... very good food.

Pros: excellent food, friendly owner, good value

Great food, great value

I wish this place was open every day but I come here any chance I get. Not only one of the better vegetarian options in the area, but - and this is rare in Berlin - it’s actually delicious whole foods. The atmosphere is very friendly, it feels a bit like eating in someone’s home. Expect an array of foods from different regions of the world, lots of vegan options, soup, spreads, and desserts. It should probably cost more than it does but the prices are super reasonable.

Pros: lots of vegan options , good value, healthy

Cons: you might overeat because it’s a buffet

Wowser!

A friend had recommended this place. I had rented a bike for the day and it was only 20 mins ride from the city centre. It's a simple friendly venue with great food. Never having been a fan of Tofu I was surprised to really enjoy the tofu curry. The selection of dishes and flavours is impressive and a good range of salads and breads to accompany. I finished off with an amazing banana tart. Whole bananas in a wonderful syrup. The owner is a real character who gave me some inside info on Berlin which really enhanced my stay. I can't recommend this place highly enough. Great food , great value and really welcoming which as a solo traveller makes all the difference.

Healthy, delicious, affordable.

Today there were 8 excellent warm dishes to choose from, several delicious salads, scrumptious breads. I had to try everything (since everything was vegan) and unfortunately did not leave enough room for the great looking desert. So I’ll be back and am already looking forward to it!

Pros: You decide the size of your portions., Fresh, good looking, well prepared., Super friendly service.

Cons: No cons.

Sehr leckeres Essen für wenig Geld

Die Crunch cantine hat mich sehr überzeugt. Umgeben von Wohnhäusern in der Nähe der Birkenstraße in Moabit. Habe ich von der crunch Cantine als Geheimtipp von Freunden die in der Straße wohnen erfahren.

Es gibt ein täglich wechselndes Buffet und eine Tagessuppe gekocht von Mike und wenn man nett lächelt kriegt man vll noch einen kostenlosen Nachschlag.

Pros: Sehr lecker, Große Auswahl, Kleiner Preis

Cons: Etwas Abgelegen

Super!

We enjoyed a warm welcome in this special restaurant when we visited Berlin with our dog. Great choice of delicious food on a buffet, so you can create your own plate. Everything homemade. We can surely recomment this place.

Pros: Delicious food, Great vegan choice, Banana pie!

Super yummy

The food was very good! I wasn't expecting so much flavour and the owner is very nice :) the only downside is that some of the dishes are a little too salty but that happens sometimes. All in all, great spot :)

Pros: Delicious, Lots of vegan options

Cons: Some dishes a little too salty

Lovely place in Moabit

I went there for lunch, which comes in the form of a buffet and everything was really tasty! 90% of the dishes are vegan, and the bread is homemade. If you're evgan, just ask which dishes include butter and/or cream.
Also, there are a lot of gluten-free options.
I had tarte tatin for dessert that was incredible and very tasty.
The owner is really kind and friendly, I'll definitely come there again!

little gem

We visited 6 vegetarian/vegan restaurants on our recent trip to Berlin and this one was our fave, so good that it was the sole port of call we revisited. Extremely good value and a nice warm feeling to the place, both in its ambience and emanating from the pleasant, helpful owner/chef Michael. Yet the reason one goes to a restaurant is primarily to eat and Crunch Kantine stood out for us because of the strong individuality of each dish in the buffet. All from Thai Curry to cottage pie, goulash to houmous and components of the salad bar made good use of spices such that no dish was either bland or overpowering. We managed one pud, a delicious banana and lime tart. Way better than a couple of much more expensive restaurants we visited!

Pros: Brilliant value, Lovely vibe, 5 mins walk to Beusselstrasse u bahn

Nice owner and great value

I really liked this place - there was a decent selection of food and everything was so reasonably priced, including the drinks.

Fresh pressed juice (of your choice) and pots of tea and coffee were €2 (pretty sure the juice was €2 but I didn't actually have one - the people next to me did and it looked good!).

There were multiple options for eat in and take out, with different prices. Soup and bread €3.50, hot food and salad €6.50, both of these together €8, and with desert €10). Take out box of 500g was €5 I think.

The salad selection was small but tasty. There were 8 hot dishes plus homemade bread, all really good - especially the spinach curries.

The english and german speaking owner Michael was really nice and friendly and makes everything himself. If you find yourself in alt-Moabit I highly recommended it.

The atmosphere, seating, and wifi were also good!

Pros: value for money, service, selection

Cons: closes a little early now (7pm), a bit out of the centre

best value for money in Berlin

This little place is a true gem, my girlfriend and I were really pleased by the abundant and mouth-watering dishes. The caponata is truly addictive. I didn't taste any animal products either plus the atmosphere is very cosy. I would give 6 out of 5 if possible. No doubt that we'll be back soon.

Pros: best value, super friendly owner, nice atmosphere

Entered ravenous, left happy and satisfied!

This was the perfect place to come after a long day sightseeing. We really liked the wholesome, home-style cooking that offered us a balanced and filling meal. Also, we know our hommus and this was good hommus.
Everyone was welcoming and helpful, and the atmosphere was very comfortable. Thanks guys, feel free to open in Sydney and we'll be there...
