Amidst the hordes of tourists and the commercial exploitation of Berlin's grim history, Checkpoint Charlie is the last place you would expect to find such a hip place. The coffee, music (they often play Berlin artists), and food is good. It has comfortable seats for browsing a variety of art and alternative culture magazines and books.

Experience the self-consciously hipster side of life in Berlin, and pick up some niche magazines or books that might be hard to find elsewhere. There's also a long shared desk and fast wifi if you need to update your travel blog. It's a welcome respite from the tourist circus if you find yourself stuck in the centre.
Homesick Australians can find homemade Anzac Biscuits here; one of Australia's most loved recipes.
