The 24h Breakfast Hang-Out
Schwarzes Café
Why locals love it
Apart from being open 24h, the "Black Café" can pride itself with surviving the steady decay of West-Berlin's night life scene. Established in 1978, former Berlin residents such as David Bowie and Iggy Pop used to shed some glitter in this legendary institution. The laid back atmosphere is accompanied by a wide variety of food and beverages.
Why you should visit it
The interior, that stretches over two floors, gives a "jazzed up" impression of how Berlin homes looked like in the first half of the 20th century. The food is of high quality and fairly priced, featuring mixed local, Euro-, and Asian cuisine. And if you are part of the legend yourself, you can enjoy your breakfast when normal people have dinner.
Special tip
Take your time to explore the place, it is full of exquisit details. And be sure to take your business to the black light toilets.
