Delicious bakery, a little bit expensive - Edit
Everything is delicious is here (and vegan!), but a little bit expensive (especially coffee and cappuccino).
Read moreAnyways is worth it in my opinion, and the quality of the products is high enough to justify the price.
Cons: expensive

Tasty food and expensive coffee - Edit
We had the olive focaccia, which was very tasty, and an absolutely delicious cookie. They also sell a lot of bread and pastries and offer some lunch and breakfast options, but the kitchen was unfortunately closed when we visited (it closes at 3.30pm). The coffee is a bit small and expensive for my taste, but tastes good (but there is better & cheaper vegan coffee in Berlin).

High quality pastries - Edit
Very high-quality pastries. Perfectly fresh, buttery, flaky, not too sweet, and a reasonable price. Indoor and outdoor seating. If you come right at opening, it isn't busy at all, but by 9:00 it started filling up with people on a Saturday. I recommend coming early to see the whole selection!

Giant Bakery. Everything Vegan. 🤯 - Edit
Perfect pastries 🥐 with custard and more. They don't advertise that they are vegan, they just are! Brilliant example of how future restaurants and bakeries will be 🌱

Super Auswahl aber sehr ungemütlich - Edit
Komplett vegane Bäckerei/ Café mit zero waste Konzept. Es gibt viel Auswahl, das Essen ist super lecker - zwar etwas teurer aber für gute Qualität gebe ich gerne etwas mehr aus.
Read moreWarum ich dennoch nur 3 Sterne gebe: Die Tische stehen teilweise einfach viel zu nah bei einander - warscheinlich damit viele Gäste zur gleichen Zeit Platz finden aber genau das fande ich negativ: Jeder Tisch war irgendwann besetzt, man konnte sich kaum noch unterhalten weil es so laut war und dadurch fanden wir es dann einfach ungemütlich.
Persönlich würde ich mich dort also nicht mehr hinsetzen - da gibt es andere tolle vegane Cafés in Berlin wo man sich wohler fühlt.

Lecker, aber teuer - Edit
Das Essen hat uns sehr gut geschmeckt, die Leute sind nett und die Atmosphäre ist auch schön (für neudirverse Menschen aber vllt zu viele Menschen). Es ist allerdings schon eher teuer, vor allem wenn man keine Berliner Preise gewohnt ist.

Leckeres Essen, das auch MischköstlerInnen schmeckt - Edit
Die FREA Bakery in Berlin Mitte überzeugt als vegane und Zero-Waste-Bäckerei. Sie bieten täglich frisches Brot aus 100% Sauerteig, Gebäck, Croissants, sowie eine Auswahl an Säften, Tee, Kaffee, Matcha Latte. Zusätzlich gibt es saisonal Gerichte. Bestellt und direkt gezahlt wird eigenständig bei der Bäckerei. Ein Buzzer signalisiert, wann Getränke und warme Speisen abgeholt werden können.
Read moreWir mussten am Samstagvormittag kurz warten bis wir einen Tisch für 2 Personen erhielten.
Pros: 100% Sauerteig, Vollständig vegane Karte , FREA legt Wert auf Nachhaltigkeit, lokale Produkte
Cons: Reservierung nicht möglich , Am Wochenende recht voll

Leckeres Essen in schönem Ambiente - Edit
Es gibt eine überschaubare Karte mit Frühstück/Mittag und ausserdem eine Theke mit großer Auswahl an Backwaren wie z.B. Croissants, belegte Brötchen oder Cookies.
Read moreDas Essen war lecker und die Portionen von der Größe her vollkommen in Ordnung (nicht zu klein, aber auch nicht so groß, dass man total voll ist).
Hier ist Selbstbedienung - also am Tresen bestellen und dann abholen/selber zum Platz bringen.
Pros: Leckeres Essen , Schön eingerichtet , Saubere Toilette

Cosy cafe, delicious food and baked goods - Edit
The vegan cardamom croissant was definitely creative, not too sweet and delicious! It's busy on weekends but I had a great experience. The lentil and pepper stew was also exceptionally good and perfect for a cold winter's day in February.

Good coffee, great pastries - Edit
The cardamom croissant is a must in my opinion! The coffee was great, too. Bit busy and crowded on the weekend, so prepare to wait for a bit. The dishes from the menu looked amazing as well!

Simply the best bakery - Edit
Wow!!! Everything is always fresh, tasty and the portions are generous. If you like mushrooms, they always put a lot. Best place for a breakfast in Berlin in my opinion. The place is calm and cute and the staff is always nice. They also have a take away station for bakery. The croissants, foccacia and brioches tasted like heaven. I woyld like to go everyday.

The cash-king is dead - Edit
Spacious hall with seating, not much in the way of soundproofing. The loudspeakers in the room are on standby while uninterrupted conversations bounce around the hall.
Read moreCardamom cake. Feels like a mix of baklava and Swedish cinnamon bun. Interesting.
Creamy mushroom-pepper sandwich. Drenched in other vegetables and slightly spicy sauces. The bread is soft and fluffy.
Got the sandwich and cake within five minutes. Coffee took a few more minutes. There was something wrong with the printer so the order did not reach the barista. Easily done.
Will gladly come here again.
Pros: Only card payment. Suck on that Germany!, All vegan

Jag växte upp i Sverige på 90-talet och kände att det var skumt när någon bara accepterade kontantbetalning.
I Tyskland och särskilt i Berlin är kortbetalning inte allmänt accepterat.
Tycker jag om det? Nej, det gör det inte.
Är det en stor grej för mig? Nej, det är det inte.
Har jag någonsin påstått att vi borde göra oss av med kontanter? Nej. Om någon vill betala med kontanter får de gärna göra det. Jag bryr mig inte ett skit.
Jag tycker bara att det är mycket bekvämare för mig som kund, att slippa springa runt med en massa kontanter på mig.

Fantastisch - Edit
I had a Matcha-Latte and the French Toast (roasted brioche, rice and almond ice cream, pickled plums, apricot sauce, caramelized pecans, hazelnut brittle. Everything tasted amazing. The presentation was appealing and overall a great place to go. They also have a little togo-counter for bread, sandwiches and sweet baked goods.

Variety of great pastries - Edit
We tried three different pastries - a chocolate croissant, a hazelnut croissant, and a savory tomato pastry. The tomato one I probably wouldn't get again (instead I'd opt for one of their warm options which sounded really good). The chocolate croissant had a nice crust but not a lot of filling. The hazelnut croissant was my favorite mostly just because of how good the filling was. It would have been better warm. Not my favorite bakery, but a nice option.
