Café am Neuen See in Berlin

Very nice and no reason to complain, but you should bring a beer mat to the chestnut blossom season so the blossoms don't rain into your beer. A helmet is definitely a good idea in the fall.

Way too expensive for self-service.

Maybe one of the best beer gardens of Berlin.

The location is actually really good, but the café at the new lake has reliably managed to make it a mess for decades. Poor to nonexistent service, the food isn't great either (the cake is okay), despite the location, you usually sit outside without a nice view of the lake or the countryside, and even when the place is only a quarter full, it's terribly loud. Not recommended.

The best Biergarten in Berlin? I think so.

The beer garden may be quite nice in the summer, but the atmosphere inside is quite dark. The food and drinks are quite expensive, but the quality is only average. On the positive side, the service was good, and an important note for those with limited mobility: the restroom is accessed via a long flight of stairs.

Beautiful location, great food Compliments to the team

Wonderful for a stroll through the park and stopping for a drink on a sunny day.

Super nice location in the middle of Berlin

Nice place in the middle of the tiergarten, recommended!

Nice pizza dought in a beautiful environment, nice lemonade and Apfelschorle

Only the boat rental is amazing.

Excellent food, service, atmosphere, and view!

In spring and summer it has an outdoor space overlooking the truly magical lake, good food, recommended place

Colorful town, very wonderful, delicious drinks.

Very nice ambience. Premium beergarten feeling in the heart of Berlin

Super nice location, enough space for everyone, but the food and drinks are absolutely overpriced :(

nice Biergarten with simple catering and 4000 seats

I can't judge the service because we were only in the self-service area. There are only two pizzas to choose from, more in the restaurant. Monday and Tuesday very chilled a D.J. on a raft. Prices generally moderate. Reservation online disastrous! If so, call. Update: Service is fantastic! Very friendly and attentive! Today with service. Charly is awesome! And Lenny our previous waiter was also fantastic! Fulfills special wishes.

Very nice but just too expensive for a normal consumer three drinks €24 I think is a bit steep.

It used to be one of my favorite place to go for brunch or coffee as the location and the view are really amazing but the service this time was one of the worst i've had in Berlin and the city isn't known for this great service. The staff was totally careless and uninterested, also failed to give us a table inside as everything was apparently booked out when many many tables stayed empty during the 2 hours we stayed there. The guests at the table next to us left after having being ignored for a good while. It was a big disappointement.

They offer both a restaurant and a beer garden. We opted for the latter - twice: Really nice Bavarian-style beer garden in the middle of Berlin. Good choice of draft beer and food. Grilled chicken and pizza were ok to good. Prices normal for Berlin. Self service but they push for tips anyway.

Very nice restaurant by the lake

Nice buzzing place. You can hire a rowing boat and go into the small lake. Fun beer garten

The food in the beer garden is delicious and reasonably priced. It's a typical beer garden atmosphere.

It used to be much better. From individual and with a feel-good factor to a beer garden with mass processing. The staff is unfriendly, the selection of drinks is rather sparse, perhaps too early in March, but when the weather is nice you can expect a corresponding rush. There are better beer gardens in Berlin. It's a shame, the café at the new lake used to be so great.

Food really not good but great atmosphere and location, service almost blind and clumsy and forgetful.

It was very nice but way too crowded

Nice place to hangout when the weather is good. Food quantity could be better. Good thing is that you can go and sit on a table, enjoy the view, without paying anything.

We had a great time as a family

In any case . Fast service. Lots of tourists. Beer tastes good on tap. It's always worth it. Even as a Berliner!

Absolutely beautiful place, a bit touristy though

Tasty food... relaxing and peaceful

The place is beautiful, the food is good, it may lack some variety and quality but it is worth going.

The cafe was very busy and you need to book a table in advance. The ice cream served was melted and the service was a bit slow due to the crowd. But it has a very pleasant atmosphere.

Really nice biergärten to enjoy evening beer with friends in cozy and pretty romantic atmosphere! 🍻

Very tasty, varied, we came following recommendations. It was excellent.. right on the lake.

Delicious food in beautiful surroundings

Wonderfull atmosphere, very nice place

Nice restaurant, small menu, good food. It's a shame that the person at reception seemed a bit overwhelmed. She hadn't passed on the fact that a found key had been handed over to her, so that after she had finished work, the waiters only had to look for it at the counter after repeated inquiries and a statement from the finder.

Cool atmosphere, especially good for a few cold drinks by the water. The food (e.g. the pizza) wasn't that good

Food portions much too small, 2nd drink order never arrived, they could have earned more from us.

Yes I can. I, 56, male, was there on Sunday, April 13, 25, at 2:30 p.m. I met a couple there and thought about a nice café. I made reservations in advance, which is a must-do! First of all, the café and the beer garden are two completely different locations! In the café you don't sit directly by the water, but at beautiful tables with a view of the beer garden and the park. The Tiergarten is not only a historically interesting place (with close proximity to the zoo), but also beautifully green with sculptures every now and then. The café was full and everyone still seemed happy. Some were there with company of several people and were apparently having brunch. The food at the other tables also looked very good. The furnishings themselves look elegant, but also make you feel comfortable. The service was great, friendly with jokes, the way you like to feel special as a guest among many. We had cheesecake and coffee, sun, nice weather and a very nice stay there!

A fairly large outside terrace, the staff was very friendly. I was there in the middle of the week and it was pretty crowded. The atmosphere is very nice with a small lake. I can recommend this place.

The food looks delicious but I only drank one beer. Always get the cold stuff first and then the warm stuff if the drinks take longer. In addition, access and checkout are always somewhat unclear. After many years at least the 4th variant.

Great beer garden by the lake with affordable prices for the tourist environment. Munich Leberkas with potato salad and sweet mustard. There is also pizza, bratwurst with fried potatoes, etc. Fast service, everything is okay. Anyone expecting culinary miracles is in the wrong place.

Chaos from start to finish. Were there with a group of 8. Waited 45 minutes for an oat milk cappuccino, one came with normal milk even though I asked again. Then suddenly three came at once... Ordered pancakes - it said: "Unfortunately pancakes are out, please choose an alternative" - ​​after 1.5 hours the alternatives arrived - but also pancakes. ?? Oh well. Breakfast seemed to have been sitting around somewhere for a very long time, bread was rock hard, salami was sweating and cheese was slowly rolling... Burger & fries came completely cold after 2 hours (!) Just for fun, we ordered an espresso and bet among ourselves as to whether it would arrive at a drinkable temperature. Of course not, I went back and the second attempt at least worked. Service is hard to reach and a bit too annoying for all this annoying stuff, half a drama when paying, I have no idea whether the whole service was still in the coke hangover... at least that's how it seemed. Behind us, a table with leftover food and pipapo was not cleared away for several hours, and sparrows gathered in the interior. Of course, there were still technical problems with the billing. After this experience, the café at the new lake has become a running joke for us... There are days when something goes wrong, no problem. But perhaps a friendly and courteous manner can sometimes make a difference. Nothing was caught here.

One of the best places in Berlin. Location is great, they have a fair variety of food/drink options and the nature around is a huge plus. Definitely recommended!

Beautiful place, excellent coffee

Perfect for after (halb)Marathon emmidiate brain restitution! 2025: Better than ever......

Great place for enjoying a good food close to the park!

The potato wild garlic soup was great, the salad was unfortunately missing dressing and the pastry with the very tasty bread was unfortunately not recommended. The homemade lemonade is even more so.

Nice beer garden in the middle of Berlin.

Food and drink options are few.

It's very modern and nice to sit by the water. The food and drink is good to choose and the portions are large. The price-performance ratio is good.

Huge beer garden full of tourists.

A nice Biergarten with decent food (at acceptable prices). It’s normally very crowded, so getting your food might take some time, but you always get a place to sit

Best burger ive had, and ive had alot!

Not child-friendly. With a sleeping baby, I'm not allowed to sit two tables away in a quieter, cigarette-free spot because they're no longer serving there. 👎👎👎

It's a great venue. I would like to see it in the summer :)

A place with a nice atmosphere. The beer is a little expensive, but it's good to drink while enjoying the scenery in the summer.

Large beer garden by the new lake, self-service works very well, but you need patience in the service area.

Recommend going around the corner instead of the main entrance. Much nicer than the restaurant itself

Enjoyed some rays of sunshine with coffee and cake

The food is a tad expensive but at least it's good. The beers are fresh, the view is nice, lot of seating and very good vibes.

The service was very slow. The chicken panko was raw and the "homemade" lemonade felt like sprite mixed with water (and a little bit of color).

The place is pretty, the service really good and kind but the food just looks nice and the taste is bad and not worthy for the price.

The most beautiful place I visited in Berlin!

I loved the place. Divinely decorated. A dream view. Very warm. We only had coffee because we wanted a beagle, but it was 1:00 p.m. and they only do it until 12:00. I didn't like the service... a little slow... I didn't quite like it... I will definitely return to give it another chance since I loved the atmosphere and found the menu interesting

A very cozy place, both on the terrace and inside. We had breakfast in front of the fireplace overlooking the lake, with a bagel with pastrami and avocado, which is highly recommended.

Great location with delicious food. The cakes are also highly recommended!

Basically a cool shop. Unfortunately the bread was hard, old and arrived crumbled. Two people ordered the same breakfast plate. However, one plate was filled with two more products. Sugar, pepper and salt were only available upon request. The pepper mill was empty when it was brought to us. Of course the price/performance ratio is not right. We won't be coming back 😞

Food and service were great, would love to come back! Thanks!

The surroundings are very beautiful. The food is visually beautifully presented (unfortunately not the pear tarte flambée) and tastes good but not outstanding. You have to aggressively draw attention to yourself if you want to be served or get the bill. Maybe it would work better if you made a reservation, we didn't do that and came over spontaneously. For us it took maybe 45 minutes until a waiter came to the table for the first time and we could ask for a menu. This only came after several hand signals. When I asked how long it would take to eat, he said about 20 minutes since it wasn't very busy at the moment. Waiters seemed very young and inexperienced. The attitude of the employees seemed very arrogant. The service definitely could have been friendlier and more attentive. I ordered the tarte flambée with pear, gorgonzola and walnuts. There's actually nothing else on it, it tasted good but it just didn't look lovely. The whole thing would look nicer with some fresh arugula leaves and walnuts that were toasted and caramelized. Conclusion: It was the first and last time for us.

Waited over 40 minutes for bread and dips and sweet potato fries. Seems we were forgotten about and when the food did arrive the fries were cold. No opportunity to tell the staff as no check back was done and there were no staff about to flag down. Atmosphere was nice at least.

I was coming here lot of times, but today is my last time. Short small woman with light brown curly hair was disaster behaviour , totally rude, angry almost kicked us out . She was SO negative that she ruined our day. Never again.

Mega klimatyczne miejsce. Na miejscu toaleta parking. Mozna zjeść, wypić winko, piwko. Miejsce na zabawę dla najmlodszych. Możliwość pływania łódka 6€ za pół godz.👍

The restaurant was too full on Saturday so I recommend to book a table for the restaurant. We had to go to the beer garden but it was lovely with the good weather. I had the chicken with potato salad and I thought it was greasy and lacked flavour. But the sausage with rosmary potatoes was excellent.

Very helpful and accommodating when booking an event 👍🏼

Nice stay with 2 children in the beer garden, relaxed, nice atmosphere. Self-service is well organized, pizza and fried potatoes are very tasty, an additional salad selection would be a nice addition. Tables are regularly cleared by hard-working helpers.

Poor waiters are running around, trying to make everything work. It's really understaffed, and the waiting time is way too long. Food is fine, but not amazing (especially for the proce). But the atmosphere is amazing, place is beautiful!

Definitely not a place for vegetarians. The only meaty thing you can get in the beer garden is an overpriced mozzarella pizza - otherwise there is only sausage (fried potatoes and salad also "only with sausage"). The staff in the café itself is unfriendly and basically threw us out just because we were looking for a table (and apparently you're not allowed to do that...).

Great place to hang out with friends and have a bite/some drinks. Overlooks the lake, and waitstaff are kind.

A very nice beer garden. There is self-service in the beer garden area. However, when paying by card you will be asked whether you would like to give a tip. Pretty cheeky...

Nice surroundings but worn out beer benches. Self-service, staff only speaks English. Cake (1 type, dry) €4.50, pizza salami (extra thin) €12.80. Paper plates and cups. Toilets cost extra, which is a disgrace given their condition. 0.3 non-alcoholic drink in a bottle €3.90, cappuccino in a paper cup also not a culinary experience. Definitely a hotspot for tourists and hip Berliners.

Here is a friendly and positive review for a restaurant: “Simply great! From the first second we felt at home in this restaurant. The ambience is stylish and cozy, the service attentive and warm. The menu offers a great selection and every dish was a delight - fresh, creative and perfectly seasoned. We were particularly impressed by [e.g. B. the homemade dessert or the perfectly grilled steak]. We will definitely be back and can highly recommend this restaurant!”

Very cool location and service!

The view is beautiful from the café and the zoo is also nearby, good places for a walk after. The waitress that took our order was rude and ironic, the rest of the staff was pleasant. The food was ok but not very worth for money, besides eggs benedict which is worth it.

Arrived on 03/06/25. Order placed 1:30 p.m.: pasta carbonara Dish served at 2 p.m. We asked for water when ordering which we did not get. We asked for it twice in a row and we were given a carafe of tap water at the end of our meal for which they charged us €7. Yes 7€ for tap water not even served on time. Inadmissible. The pasta dishes arrived lukewarm and were still €18. All in all, it's a tourist trap.

So casual..., so cozy with great service that the staff deserves ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ❤️

Always a great spot to rest after a good walk in the park. Food is good taste. If you order from the stands it is quick, but order from the restaurant can take ages.

Quite overpriced for what you get. The pizza is like flamkuchen dough so €19 for Crispy air is disappointing if you've gone on a big walk through the Tiergarten. The atmosphere is busy on a weekend but cool interior and friendly staff. Service was ok and food/drink came fairly quickly considering how full the cafe was.

Nice food . Chicken was lovely . Terrible service , waited so long to order our food and then a ridiculous wait for our drinks . Asked for the bill twice and they never came down with it. Lucky the food makes up for the shocking service.

Food was excellent, staff were really nice and it’s a nice little place tucked away from the busyness of the city in the park.

Cozy place, but the service is awful. We waited over an hour for a beer in an almost empty café before finally canceling our order. Disappointing experience! P.S: Instead of apologies or educating their staff on how to do their job and be respectful to customers, Now they already tried to Report my review 2 times! This feature is here for people to express their experience, You can’t just report any reviews that you don’t like. I‘m more disappointed than before now!!!!!

I dropped something off there today for a work colleague's wedding. Was impressed by the beautiful location and the friendly service. I'll definitely stop by for dinner sometime.

...nice service. We didn't eat anything, but what we could see looked very tasty

I had a very nice time with you!

Great store, great service. From the greeting to the farewell, it was a great success!

Unfortunately the staff behaved underground. Generally the food is okay, prices are not cheap, but also okay. I found the audience rather unpleasant, all in all a bad atmosphere.
