Cafe Hermann Eicke in Berlin

Nice and pleasantly simply furnished café. Varied map. We were there for breakfast in winter and unfortunately it was very, very cold in the restaurant. We waited 50 minutes for our scrambled eggs. After all, they were delicious and the sourdough bread was crispy and airy. Quite expensive.

Cute cafe with great coffee and the best banana bread! You can work really well from here... -- Addendum: it's still cute but the staff is now practicing ignoring people. I understand if a cafe is full on a Sunday, but then I expect a little communication. At least a hello or an “I’ll just take this away and then come to you”. It's these little things that are unfortunately absolutely missing. After being ignored at the checkout for over 7 minutes, even though I was looked at several times without saying a word, I no longer wanted a EUR 4.50 coffee. Too bad...

Personally for the portion size and how simple the breakfast sandwiches are, I find them quite expensive. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff, however they don't really speak German which for some is a minus. The matcha latte was really bad and they mixed up the oat milk latte with the normal mix which unfortunately.

The man in service, I think his name was Laszlo, was very friendly and accommodating, the breakfast sandwich and the flat white were also very good

Visited this cafe for a quick coffee and a piece of cake. It was a Sunday morning, so the cafe was full. Good for them. However, it took us 15 minutes just to stand in line to order. We got the cake straight away and it tasted fine. We waited for 30 minutes for a cup of coffee and a chai, finally we went up and asked - it turned out that they had forgotten our order. Sad when it had to go quickly, and it's certainly not cheap. We ended up getting the togo, as we wanted to reach something that day and it was also stressful to sit in such a full cafe. The coffee was good but the chai latte was bland. As if they had forgotten to put powder in, and just served warm milk. I definitely wouldn't come back.

Tasty, great atmosphere, good vibes, great for families!

Great little cafe with good coffee and nice food. Great place to work or just relax. Would recommend.

Today I was sitting in the middle area with a laptop, whereupon the boss came to my table with his arms outstretched, put his hands on the table and, after at least 3 seconds of strange eye contact, interrupted the sentence he had started and suddenly said: oh do you speak German? Presumably for him, i.e. the owner, who is supposed to care about customer satisfaction, my appearance wasn't German enough that he felt the need to ask the question. Then he said in a definitely not nice tone that I should go to the back with the laptop, even though you can apparently also work with the laptop in the front area. But he apparently wanted to see me at the back. At the end he was so nice and wanted to take my unempty coffee with him and when I pointed out to him that it wasn't empty, nothing came and he just left. I'm really sorry that I was sitting in the wrong area with the laptop. It will never happen again!

Quite pricey for what you get. I doubt that this shop has a chef or at least trained cooking staff. Eggs completely overcooked, bread tasted old and dry. Still paid 20€ pp for a less than mediocre breakfast. Coffee was excellent though.

Waited more than five minutes for a menu, or indeed for the waitress to acknowledge our existence, but she was too busy catching up with friends. Forget it

They close ate 5 p.m, but when I came at 4:15 he said No coffee as they are closing!!!

Not a bad place, but lacks attention to details, especially in food. For example, for around 18 euro for you get an avo tost dish, but - Side salad is not properly washed (had few soil grains) - Poached eggs are overcooked (turned out to be on a hardboiled side) - Avo is very mediocre, with little brown stains - No oil / lemon suggested for a salad or avo - it's just makes the dish super dry and tasteless The bottom line is that with the same set of products (which are not bad in general, and some parts - like bread - are great!), but a bit more care and attention you could provide a completely different level of food experience. Without it price/quality ratio is a bit underwhelming.

Cool place great vibes and coffee!

The most delicious coffee in my life, it was perfect 😌👌🏻 Tasty food, cosy and unique atmosphere in a cafe. The best recommendation☺️

Today it was my second time here, i ordered Americano(seems like middle size), i paid 4,40€… only for very ordinary black coffee. because i took paper to-go cup. Because of the environment. of course environment is important. but this is just an excuse. they aim to eco-friendly, but not a customer friendly. disappointed.

A cute little café - which I like the vibe of. Our breakfast was delicious and fresh. We each had scrambled eggs with mountain cheese, bacon and avocado cream and each had coffee and fresh mint tea. The café is also close to the Bernauer Straße stop - so easy to reach. If you're up for a delicious breakfast in a chilled atmosphere with cheerful staff, you should definitely come here.

My favorite cafe in Berlin! By far the best coffee in the best dosage. Also very tasty snacks!

Yummy affordable sandwiches and coffee. It is located across a self service laundry place. Perfect to hop over for a cuppa while your clothes ar being washed or dried.

Ate delicious coffee and cake. Recommended

Delicious coffee, tea and bagel. Good space to get work done (in designated laptop areas). Very chill vibe

very friendly staff and great breakfast :)

Cozy place, tasty food, decent coffee, friendly stuff!

Absolutely great atmosphere, interior, great service, great(amazing) flat white. Super tasty power ball (hopefully will power me up for the day). Can’t wait to try the bagels and the other tasty looking stuff! ⚡️✨

The only gluten free option was the orange almond cake. Although it is the only option, it is still worth a try because it tastes good and its moist. The cafe had a calm environment and the espresso is strong. Their orange juice is also natural, which is great. If you’re close by, stop by and get a slice.

Very very relaxed atmosphere, will come more often. 👍🏼

Doesn't taste good at all. The salad was too sour and the poached egg was too watery. Service wasn't nice (took my glass without asking)

First of all: my flat white was delicious. I just think it's a shame that it's another very expensive hipster café where a small piece of cake costs €3.8. All in all I would say that this place is probably more for tourists. Not for people who live in the neighborhood and want to drink a good coffee in a charming and personal atmosphere. The atmosphere is more reminiscent of a hipster shop, like The Barn, when they just opened. I'm also very conflicted about the fact that paper cups cost 50 cents. Because on the one hand I think it's great because otherwise it would be a huge waste and polluting the environment, but on the other hand you could have told me that beforehand😬. So I paid €4.6 for an oat flatwhite instead of €3.8. The fact that oat milk still incurs a surcharge is somehow regressive. But sure. Rent is definitely not cheap ;)

We fell upon this cafe whilst looking for the Berlin Wall memorial. What an amazing find, lovely friendly atmosphere and the food is exceptional. I ordered the Herman is Hungry brunch, wow it was a serious plateful. The 2 poached eggs were cooked to perfection beautifully runny and the bacon crispy and delicious. At first we thought having humous and salad on the plate alongside it was unusual but it really worked and every item on the plate was very good quality and very tasty. I would highly recommended this cafe.

There were four of us here and we all had a really delicious breakfast

Very good hearty brunch, friendly and friendly waitress and fast service.

a nice place to have coffee with friendly staff

They forgot our orders multiple times, the food arrived on different times so we couldn’t eat together and it took 50+ minutes to get.

Very friendly staff, great breakfast and very good coffee. Great.

Delicious food and coffee. Excellent care. A 10!

It's really nice to have a cup of coffee and a bite of croissant while sitting on historical street. The environment is perfect to come and enjoy with friends. Coffee is great and croissants have nothing to say 💯. FYI: They do not accept cash.

Really delicious, exceeded my expectations! We had flat whites and the Levantine with a bread basket and the poached eggs with hollandaise sauce. Super nice service, they brought water straight to the table. However, you have to wait a bit if it's full as there are quite a few tables for just 2 staff.

Didn't try the food but the matcha latte and cappuccino were a 3/10

Lovely food!! Realy original and very nice staff. Coffee and carrot cake as well;)

Nice hipster bar in the middle of the neighborhood. Unfortunately on a Saturday there were only two ladies looking after us - it was not possible to order anything within 30 minutes.

Absolutely no go this place 😳 We were here with seven people, 6 had ordered scrambled eggs, all cold, orders were forgotten or came wrong. It's unbelievable that it wasn't possible to get even one meal hot. That was more than bad

You can trust their brunch options for sure!

The café is really cozy, and it's in a nice spot with super friendly staff. They're pros at what they do, and the prices are fair. I have to say, the cakes and coffee are absolutely delicious. The service is warm and welcoming, and the whole vibe is great. But, you know, inside could be a bit tidier and calmer. That's the only thing I'd say could be better. Overall, though, it's a cool spot, especially with that awesome outdoor area in the summer.

Had the hungry hermann which had perfectly poached eggs and a freshly baked selection of breads paired with some delicious dips, cheeses and fried mushroom and bacon. Delicious!

Best Cappuchino ! It was a great pleasure to drink the Cappuchino. No acid, really strong intense taste. Days later my tongue has the memory of that great cappuchino.

One time experience. It's expensive.

Very good coffee & friendly stuff. I can highly recommend eggs Benedict on a french toast — delish!

nice bonanza speciality coffee and food

Bar carino con molti tavolini all’interno. Buono il caffè espresso e anche i toast.

Toast ottimo The nero molto buono Si assapora la calma e le materie prime di qualità

Trop cool !... Les croissants sont excellants !!!...

The banana bread had way too much nutmeg and the food is a bit pricey but a nice place to sit and work

Definitely the worst carrot cake I've ever had. There must have been some kind of mistake with the natron , like the whole jar fell inside the dough, because I really could not taste anything else! I suggest you to try the products before selling them.

Hier schmeckt alles: der Flatfoot, die Brote, der Kuchen…

Fantastic coffee and croissants

Am liebsten würde ich null Sterne geben, damit dieses lokal ein Geheimtipp bleibt. Ich war bestimmt schon 20 mal hier, und liebe die French Toast specials am Wochenende, die frischen Säfte und das Ambiente

Food and coffee were amazing; can highly recommend the granola: best I’ve ever tried. Dani made us feel very welcomed!

Just stopped in for a latte and an almond croissant. The coffee is quite good as was the croissant. A pleasant mildly trendy atmosphere. Staff was nice. I don't think they all speak German. Not a destination you need to seek out but a good choice if you are in the neighborhood.

Problem with this place is the ethics of the company and the way they treat their employees. Coffee is not too bad.

Very nice coffee place! As an americano drinker i find their coffee very balanced, no acid, bitterness is within pleasant level, not too much water - still very intense and with tiny foamy layer on top, mm, yummy :). Banana bread is 8/10. I can agree with others that sandwiches are a little bit expensive. But atmosphere of this café convincing right away. Always pretty packed and you can notice people slowly enjoying their day. You don't realise that you follow this wave in the end. ;)

Lovely place. Specialty coffee, speedy service

Great place. Simple menu, but everything is great.

A perfect and quaint experience at Herman Eicke! I went for a solo brunch at Hermann Eicke on my last day in Berlin. The interiors were clean and there were many spaces to sit. I noticed a few guests were working from their laptops; so I could sense the vibe here was a nice place to chill but also work if you needed to. Service was fast and professional! I opted for the Avocadotoast and added a poached egg. It was brilliant! Fresh, tasty and vibrant. It exceeded my expectations! I also got an orange immune booster to just perk me up! It was tasty too! Price is just right, you get quality food for what you pay for! Plenty of options on such a simple menu. Thank you!

Wir haben dort gefrühstückt. Eine besondere Stadt mit einer besonderen Gastlichkeit und sehr raffinierten Menüs. Ganz besonders.

a really nice place with good coffee and delicious food, very professional

Nett eingerichtet? Naja Wände sind weiß. Ansonsten 13 Euro für zwei Eier bspw. Aber schmeckt gut. Für mich passt es nicht

They took very long time serving me a single cappuccino

It was the worst breakfast I've had in a long time

It’s Hipsters trap with bad cofee

Really good food, coffee and nice staff <3

Sehr leckerer Avocadotoast. Selbstbedienung. Das Ambiente ist sehr schön und draußen kann man im Sommer gut sitzen.

Das Café bietet eine charmante und gemütliche Atmosphäre, perfekt geeignet, um eine Pause vom hektischen Treiben der Stadt einzulegen. Die Einrichtung ist stilvoll und einladend; das Personal freundlich und aufmerksam. Der Ice Coffee mit cremiger Hafermilch ist einfach fantastisch. Die Qualität des Kaffees und die Sorgfalt bei der Zubereitung sind deutlich spürbar und tragen zu einem unvergesslichen Geschmackserlebnis bei. Also, wenn man auf der Suche nach hervorragendem Kaffee, insbesondere dem Ice Coffee mit Hafermilch, ist, wird man hier definitiv fündig.

Tolles Café mit sehr leckerem Fruhstück und vor allem Kaffee. Keine riesige Essensauswahl (was eher ein gutes Zeichen ist) und das, was man bekommt, ist sehr lecker und gesund. Service ist immer freundlich und schnell, spricht ggf. auch immer englisch. Preise wie im gesamten Umkreis eher etwas höher, aber man bekommt eben auch gute Qualität. Für uns ist es das wert und damit eines unserer liebsten Cafés in diesem Kiez.

Ich war schon oft im HE und jedesmal war alles Top. Die Inhaber sind super sympathisch und beim Service gibts nichts auszusetzen. Guter Kaffee und selbstgemachte Kuchen plus Frühstück runden das Angebot perfekt ab und das alles in einem schönen Setting, sleek und modern– gefällt mir noch besser als zu Beginn. Da ich in Kreuzberg wohne, komme ich selten hier her, doch wenn ich mal in Mitte bin, schaue ich sehr gerne vorbei.

Highly recommend this place. Their stuff is nice and Benedict French toast is super delicious.

Sehr leckeres Frühstück. Super schnell und organisiert. So muss das laufen!

Hübsches Café, allerdings echt unfreundlich und eher teuer.

Humus Highlight! Hier kommt man als Frühstücks Liebhaber:in voll auf seine Kosten. Die pochirten Eier waren on Point und der Avocado Toast ein geschmacklicher Traum. Das Café ist minimalistisch gehalten und zeichnet sich durch kleine, stilvolle Dekoartikel aus.

Naja, trendig vielleicht, aaaaber: Kaffee nicht richtig heiß und mit sehr viel Säure, belegtes Bagel € 7,50, eher Wartesaal-Atmosphäre, Mitarbeiter*innen sprechen ausschließlich Englisch (jaaaa, wir sprechen beide fließend Englisch, dann geht es doch, aber trotzdem bedauerlich in einer Multikultistadt). Anyway, es gibt deutlich Besseres. Schade. Sehr gut allerdings das (mit der Marmelade separat bestellte) Kompott zum Croissant.

Das Essen und die Atmosphäre waren gut. Auch die Bedienung war sehr freundlich und motiviert. Was stört sind zum einen die langen Wartezeiten und zum anderen die hohen Preise.

Der schlauchförmige Gastraum hat nur wenige Fensterplätze hin zur Straße, ansonsten sitzt man eher "hinten drin" an einigen eckigen oder auch runden Tischen. Ganz durch vor den Toiletten gibt es noch einen großen, runden Community Table - schick! Ansonsten bekommt das Café von mir volle Punktzahl auf der Hipster-Skala: Minimalistisch günstig eingerichtet, Lounge-Musik, weiße, einfach verputzte Wände, Selbstbedienung vorne am Tresen, die Mitarbeiter sprechen eher Englisch als Deutsch, Angebot mit Avocado-Brot und Power-Balls (mit Datteln?), die Preise für meinen Geschmack deutlich zu hoch (jenseits der sieben Euro für ein Ham+Cheese-Toast). Unser Essen schmeckte trotzdem gut, unser Service war freundlich. Was ich gar nicht leiden kann (und für mich zur Abwertung führte): Das Kartenlesegerät zwingt den Kunden vor den Augen des Mitarbeiters, ein Trinkgeld auszuwählen - 0% sind möglich, aber man fühlt sich unter Druck gesetzt. Und das in einem Laden mit Selbstbedienung! Die Toiletten waren okay.

My favourite place for coffee and brunch !! The food is delicious and healthy!! They have their special blend coffee from bonanza which is so good!! Love the ambience of the place

Wir hatten ehrlich gesagt höhere Erwartungen an das Frühstückslokal. Der Service und auch die Qualität ist verbesserungswürdig. Schade!

Ein sehr nettes, liebevoll eingerichtetes Kaffee, mit vielen leckeren Gebäcken und Brunch-Gerichten. Der Café ist ausgesprochen lecker und das Essen ebenfalls sehr lecker, nur die Portionen könnte für die Preise ein wenig größer sein. Es gibt einige Tische, an denen man auch zum Arbeiten sitzen kann, WLAN ist auch verfügbar. Morgens kann es recht schnell voll werden, weswegen ich besonders am Wochenende entweder früh oder nur mit Reservierung vorbeikommen würde. Das einzige was ich schade finde ist, das man nur am Tresen bestellen und bezahlen kann und es keinen kompletten Tableservice gibt. Außerdem gibt es nur ein paar größere Tische, an den kleinen runden Tischen kann es dann schonmal recht eng werden mit mehr als zwei Personen.

Top Kaffee, super freundlich und gemütliches Ambiente.

Service was lovely and the staff genuinely wanted to know about where we came from

Verhipstertes überteuertes Lokal wo keine einzige Bedienung ein Wort Deutsch spricht oder versteht. Alles Selbstbedienung, nicht einmal Besteck wird an den Tisch geliefert. Total abzuraten!

Das Essen war sehr geschmacklos und der Service unterirdisch.

Great coffee shop right next to a flea market.

Der Avocado-Toast war sehr lecker. Unbedingt einen Tisch reservieren, ab 10 Uhr am Wochenende wird es richtig voll. Das Personal spricht nur englisch, mit ein paar Worten englisch kommt man gut hin. Es gibt eine englische und auch eine deutsche Karte.

Great food! Cozy interior and extremely yummy matcha (perfect ratio and excellent quality). The barista was very kind and even offered a free pastry 10/10. 100% recommend and will be back soon.

Very cosy and lovely cafe right on Bernauer Straße. Their coffee is delicious and they have some good pastries.

Essen war sehr lecker, die Bedienung leider extrem unfreundlich und lustlos. Verstehe nicht wieso man im Service arbeitet, wenn meine keine Lust auf diese Arbeit hat.

Coole Location mit glutenfrei, vegan, frischen Säften. Bedienung fand ich nicht sehr hilfsbereit, sondern eben auch nur 'cool'.

One of my best places for having brunch in PBerg. The place is cosy, chill atmosphere. Even if always there is a lot of costumers on the place, it is possible to find a table in an spontaneous brunch day.

I love this place. It has a good vibe and good coffee. Can’t ask for more.

Great place with a variety of breakfast/brunch options. The coffee is also great every time!

Gute Atmosphäre, wo man entspannt Café trinken kann

the service was super slow, the food wasn't fresh it was reheated, the cheese was burned, never again here.

Absolute disaster. I was served a cold cappuccino which was not freshly prepared. The service was arrogant on top of it.

lousy experience! the food is overheated!
